It will be seen from the foregoing list that the absolutely necessary instruments for ordinary anatomical work are compara- tively few and inexpensive. In purchasing instruments, the student should remember that their value depends not upon their handles, their finish, or their cost, hut upon the adaptation of their size, form andj temper to the loorlc in view. On the other hand, while perfect instruments alone will not insure a good dissection, they are generally more easy to use, and more durable. Hence it is cheaper, in the end, to purchase the best. Left figure, ordinary " cutting ; Right figure " diagonal side cutting nippers," called nippers in this work. Middle figure, blades of nippers seen from the side. „ § 134. Absorbent Cotton.—This is cot ton freed from all impurities, and especially from the oil which ordinary cotton retains in small amount. It is therefore not only cleaner, but capable of absorbing water or alcohol instantly. On this account Fig. 's Nippers, -^ -^ ^^ ^^ preferred for the cushions which ^' ' are made for freshly prepared brains, em- bryos, and other soft and delicate specimens to rest upon while hardening. It should also be used for packing small or delicate alcoholic specimens for transportation ; the ordinary cotton occupies much more room at first than after it is thoroughly soaked, and a space is thus left in which the specimen can be shaken to and fro. AVhen ordinary cotton must be used for either of these purposes, it should be first thoroughly soaTced. For dry packing, the ordinary cotton will answer. § 135. Arthrotome—Fig. 16.—
