American micro- tomes are mostly copies of the German instruments modified by certain alterations which may or may not be improve- ments.. Fig. 59. Thoma's Microtome by Jung.—A microtome of great merit, which held undisputed superiority for many years over its rivals, and still is one of the best and most useful instruments, is known as Professor Thoma's, and is made by E. Jung, of Heidelberg. This instrument, which is illus- trated in Fig. 59, is constructed upon the Eivet model, the knife moving in a horizontal plane, and the object in an inclined plane. Fig. 60 presents a diagrammatical view in section of this microtome. D is its base of cast iron which stands upon the work-table on three points; C is the central support bearing the horizontal plane A on one side and the inclined plane B on the other side. The two V-grooves formed by A C and B C have each three raised sliding.
