- INTRODUCTION
- INTRODUCTION
- Founded in the year 1837 by the late William Watson, the firm of W. Watson and Sons has become famous throughout the world for Optical Instruments of various kinds including Photographic Lenses, Prism Binoculars, Astronomical Telescopes and predominantly Microscopes.
- The manufacture of Microscopes was undertaken by us about fifty years ago, and gradually the Microscope Department assumed increasing proportions until it has now been for several years the most important in our business. We are the largest makers of Microscopes, Objectives, and Accessory Apparatus in the British Empire.
- The success that has attended our efforts is undoubtedly due to the keen appreciation which workers show for Microscopes which enable them to express their own individuality in their work, and to Objectives and Condensers which give results and afford conveniences which are unusual and in some cases unique.
- Although the Microscope is not used for recreational purposes by the amateur to the same extent as formerly, there is still an active and growing section of such workers, and certain of our Microscopes suit their requirements in a special manner. In fact we are the only manufacturers in the world who cater for their needs.
- On the other hand the Microscope is now recognised as essential in nearly every branch of Industry, and the variety of subjects for research connected with science and the medical profession causes a continual demand for instruments for the purpose. The demand for our productions shows a continued annual increase.
- The notable advance in microscope design which ensures unsurpassed rigidity and durability announced in the last edition, has been an unqualified success. Full details will be found in the Section on mechanical construction. New instruments and accessories will be found in the present issue.
- Our Works are situated at High Barnet, Hertfordshire, and present the most favourable conditions that can be desired and modern facilities provide, for the manufacture of scientific instruments. Our main works were rebuilt in 1910, substantial additions were made in 1914 to 1918, and in 1919, while further additions have been made in 1935/6.
- To make a Microscope satisfactorily requires a peculiar and special talent, which can only be acquired with apprenticeship and long training to the work. We have in our works men who have been with us all their working lives, while the succession of highly intelligent and keen young craftsmen is assured by the training received from the older men, and ensures the continuance of that outstanding quality and pride of craftmanship for which our instruments are justly famous.
- We are always pleased to receive suggestions in connection with our productions and to give such communications our most careful consideration, for we gratefully recognise that our increasing success is in no small measure due to the generous co-operation of our patrons, to whom we are indebted for many valuable suggestions and kind recommendations.

- THE COMPOUND MICROSCOPE
- 5
- THE COMPOUND MICROSCOPE
- The optical system of the Compound Microscope consists of Objective, Eyepiece and Condenser.
- In the Compound Microscope a real image of the object is formed by the lens-system known as the Objective. This image is formed in air in the body tube of the Microscope at a distance of from 6 to 10 in. from the Objective and is then rendered visible and further enlarged by the Eyepiece. The essential optical elements of a Compound Microscope then are, the Objective and the Eyepiece.
- The effective working of the Objective depends on the proper illumination of the Object which is under examination. For this purpose optical systems, known as Condensers, are employed for concentrating the light.
- The Microscope Stand carries the optical system. The effective working and the facility with which objects can be viewed and measured depends on the accuracy of construction and the mechanical conveniences with which the stand is equipped, hence the variety of different models that are offered and described.
- In this catalogue will be found a range of Objectives, Eyepieces, Condensers, and Microscope Stands, progressing in completeness of construction from the plain types which are suitable for the work of the student, to the advanced models that are necessary for the more ambitious worker and those who are engaged in original research, whose purpose cannot be served by anything but the best.
- There are branches of investigation which necessitate special arrangements in the design of the Microscope stand, and models are made for such. Thus the special facilities that are offered in the Microscopes that are made for the Metallurgist and Petrologist are redundant to the Biologist. Separate catalogues of these are published as mentioned on page 1.
- This microscope catalogue, as notified on page 1, is published in seven sections.
- The descriptions of the optical components precede the Microscope stands, as these are necessary for use with all types of Microscope.

- 6 OBJECTIVES
- OBJ ECTIVES
- However perfectly a Microscope stand may be constructed, the quality of the image seen depends upon the lenses that are used. The selection, therefore, of suitable Objectives for the class of work to be done is of the utmost importance. Consideration must be given to questions of numerical aperture, tube length, working distance, ability to stand high eyepieces, etc. In the following paragraphs we have endeavoured to give some guidance on these important points.
- The large number and variety of the types of optical glass offer a wide choice in the computations of formulae, and the successful efforts of British optical glass manufacturers to meet the needs of opticians have resulted in the supply of glass which is unsurpassed for the purpose.
- Great care has been taken by us to eliminate all glasses that are likely to oxidise or decompose. We use hard and durable types of glass, and should any of our Microscope Objectives made subsequent to 1920 exhibit traces of decomposition at any time, we undertake to correct this free of charge, provided that no other damage has been done to the Objective, and it has not been subjected to misuse or injury, and is in the hands of the original purchaser.
- By constant refinement in methods of manufacture and unremitting severity of inspection the uniform excellence of the Objectives is always maintained at the high standard that is set for them. Only those who are conversant with the modern possibilities of optical work are aware of the wonderful accuracy and perfection of workmanship that is called for and obtained. The computations provide for constituent lenses of a certain thickness and curvature. These are scrupulously adhered to, the surfaces being tested by means of “ proof ” plates, which enable differences of less than one hundred-thousandth of an inch to be perceived, and finally when the components have been cemented together, they are mounted in the Objective mount with the surfaces at prescribed distances from, and accurately centred to, each other. So faithfully is this work carried out, that the number of Objectives that exhibit defects of manufacture or adjustment when subjected to the regular examination and testing, is very small.
- Tube Length. It cannot be too strongly emphasised that if the Objective is to give its best result it must be used with the proper thickness of cover glass on the object, and with the precise tube length for which it has been adjusted. The expert eye can detect an error in tube length of a few millimetres by the lessened defining power that results.
- Our standard Objectives, especially those for students’ use, are corrected for a tube length of 160 mm., and the thickness of cover glass for which all our Objectives are corrected is -007 in. (•18 mm.). It must always be remembered that the depth to which the object is embedded in the mountant is equivalent to an increase in cover glass thickness.
- We are always prepared to supply any of our Objectives, corrected for any length of tube, or to work on uncovered specimens or any specified thickness of cover glass, without extra charge, if notice is given at time of ordering.
- We usually have in stock in addition to the lenses having standard correction, a number of Objectives that are corrected for metallurgy—for use without cover glass and others to work on tube lengths of 200 and 250 mm.
- Those who wish to wrest the best results from their equipment should from the commencement familiarise themselves with this most important factor in obtaining resolution. We are always glad to give instruction to those interested if they will visit us.
- We realise that the more the recognition of quality in Objectives and manipulation of the micro-scope is understood the more the unique advantages of the Watson Microscopes will be appreciated.

- OBJECTIVES
- 7
- In order that the special and unique features which are incorporated in our Objectives may be more fully appreciated, we would submit the following remarks :—
- Apochromatic Objectives. These are described on page 11. We recommend them because both visually and photographically they are truly apochromatic, their spherical corrections are such that the whole of their numerical apertures can be effectively used, they will stand deep eyepieces, they give brilliant crisp images. We believe them to be the best Objectives of their type available.
- Holoscopic Series. The lenses of this series are referred to on pages 12 and 13.
- These offer wide range of Objectives from 3 in. to 2 mm., computed with exceptionally wide effective apertures combining crisp definition and ability to stand deep 'eyepiecing. A feature of this series is that in common with our Apochromatic Series the back lens is a triple combination. These form a series of truly semi-apochromatic lenses and by the use of light screens which pass light of one range of colour only, are rendered equal in performance to Apochromatic Objectives.
- Parachromatic Objectives. For general work, which represents probably 90 per cent, of microscopical observation, the lenses of this series are supreme.
- These are the lenses universally employed in teaching institutions, laboratories, routine work, and by all not engaged on research or similar work necessitating the best optical systems available.
- Certain conditions have to be satisfied, and performance that is irreproachable is maintained by rigid inspection. In this series we offer Objectives which are recognised throughout the world as yielding unsurpassed results. Their long working distances offer unique convenience in use. The outstanding feature of the Parachromatic series, apart from the general excellence of performance, is the adaptation of the colour correction to coloured objects on which they are almost invariably used.
- A reference is made to these important features on page 14, but we would here emphasise the immense advantage that is conferred on the average student by the working distance of 1 mm. in the | in. Objective of this series. It enables him to work on bacteriological specimens, counting chambers, etc., with a freedom not associated with lenses having less working distance.
- The T% in. Oil Immersion Objective (“ Versalic ”) has the same quality in a lesser degree. The maximum working distance is given that will allow of immersion contact being maintained between the cover glass and the front lens of the Objective.
- Coloured Objects. It has been found in practice that an Objective that may give excellent definition on an uncoloured object does not necessarily perform so well on a stained specimen.
- This matter has been the subject of long consideration, discussion and experiment; our Objectives are now corrected to yield fine definition on coloured objects, and it will be found that they are no less good on unstained specimens.
- Flatness of Field. Flatness of field is so often asked for that we think it desirable to mention that this can never be obtained in other than Objectives of low power or low aperture, and this fact applies to Objectives by all makers.

- OBJECTIVES
- Theoretically and practically, all microscope lenses have a curved field, and with high-power Objectives the greater the excellence of the lens, the more particularly does this become apparent. It is possible, by altering the focus, to view separately every zone of the field, but when a specimen is focussed in the centre of the field, this part is absolutely sharp. Flatness of field can only be obtained by sacrificing the maximum sharpness at the focal point, and this produces inferior definition. The necessities of many classes of work render as great a degree of flatness of field as can be discreetly given desirable, and the judicious combination of that effect with the best possible definition in the circumstances is provided.
- With low powers—1 in., 2 in., 3 in., etc., and those of less magnification, flatness of field can be secured over nearly the entire field, but under no circumstances can flatness of field be produced in a high power lens of large aperture and fine quality—it is an optical impossibility.
- THE CHOICE OF OBJECTIVES
- The Objectives that are to be chosen will depend on the class of work that is to be undertaken.
- The ability of a lens to define fine structure is associated with its numerical aperture, the greater the numerical aperture the larger the number of lines per inch that can be divided. If the unknown is to be investigated, and the limits of resolving power are to be available, Objectives with the largest numerical aperture that can be obtained are essential.
- The greater part of the work that is done, however, does not call for the use of such lenses. Generally the aim is to see with the utmost clearness, structure which is known and probably described, and for such, lenses of sufficient though comparatively low aperture are satisfactory. Our Parachromatic series meets these requirements in the best possible manner.
- In choosing Objectives it must be borne in mind that wide numerical aperture necessitates reduction of working distance and increased curvature of field. As a general recommendation we should say that our Parachromatic series will be found to cover the wants of all those who are engaged in work of a general educational and recreational character, but for those who desire the best obtainable, or are doing research work, lenses of the Holoscopic or Apochromatic series must be chosen.
- An indication of the resolving power yielded by the different apertures will be realised from the following table:
- N.A. Resolving power in lines per inch. White light. Green light.
- 1-37 132,082 143,170
- 1-30 125,333 135,854
- 0-95 91,590 99,278
- 0-85 81,949 88,828
- 0-70 67,487 73,152
- 0-65 62,667 67,927
- 0-45 43,385 47,026
- 0-30 28,923 31,351
- 0-28 26,995 29,261
- The attainment of this resolving power is dependent upon the use of fully achroma-tised and aplanatised condensers, of aperture fully corrected and equal to that of the Objective.

- OBJECTIVES
- 9
- Where two or more Objectives are used for some particular kind of study, one of them is usually employed for the purpose of finding the object or detail, and this Objective should have qualities which make it useful for searching and for a general view of the object. The nature of the objects to be examined and the conditions under which they are viewed are therefore the factors which affect the choice of a set of Objectives for any particular work. In view of the special features associated with every kind of study it is impossible to give general rules which may be applied to the selection of Objectives. It seems better to state what Objectives are actually found most useful in different branches of Microscopy and the following list is offered as the result of considerable experience of expert workers and in accordance with the demands most frequently received.
- Botany, Zoology and General Biology [2 in.], 3 in. and l in. (0-70 n.a,) Parachromatic. The 2 in. is not always included in sets, but it is a very desirable addition.
- Animal and Human Histology, 3 in. and 1 in. (0-70 n.a.) Parachromatic.
- Bacteriology, Serology, Haematology and Pathology, 3 in., J in. (0-70 n.a.) and 15 in. Parachromatic.
- The eyepieces which would accompany these objectives would be No. 2 ( x 6) and No. 4 ( x 10) or if one only were taken No. 3 ( x 8).
- In certain branches of these studies it may be advisable to depart from the above recommendations. For the study of the Foraminifera, for instance, a 2-in. and a 1-in. Objective would be more useful than those specified for general zoology. Again, in the study of certain organisms, such as the Rotifera, the inclusion of the 2 in. or an even lower power may be advisable.
- In Petrography the usual Objectives are 1 in. and 1 in. Occasional use may be made of an immersion Objective. These may be of the Parachromatic series, but if the interference figures from very thin sections are to be examined the extra numerical aperture of the Holoscopic 2 mm. Objective will be useful.
- In Metallurgy the 3 in. and l in. Parachromatic will be found generally satisfactory. To ensure the finest photomicrographs it is, however, better to adopt the Apochromatic 16 mm. and 4 mm. For the very finest detail the 2 mm. Apochromatic may be added. Metallographic Objectives are made in the same three series as the others, but differ from other Objectives in being corrected for use on an uncovered object. They are also mounted differently. We recommend that for this work a tube length of 200 mm. be used
- For original research in any branch of study in which the discovery of delicate or very minute detail may be possible, the best Objectives which it is possible to obtain should be used. These are of the Apochromatic series. Visibility of very delicate structure may only be possible through perfect corrections in the Objective as well as to its numerical aperture, so that Apochromatic Objectives of low and medium power which approach perfection so closely are of the greatest value in the study of delicate and elusive details and particularly in Photomicrography where accurate colour rendering is essential.
- The Amateur Microscopist, who wishes to be able to examine polyzoa one day and the finest structure on the diatomaceae the next, must necessarily be supplied with a wide range of Objectives. Usually, however, the amateur takes advantage of the lower prices of those Objectives which are most in demand, such as the 3 in. and l in. Parachromatic, and adds a lower or higher power as the need arises.

- OBJECTIVES
- For technical uses the Objectives which are to be used will depend upon the nature of material to be examined. For the examination of building and paving materials a 2-in. Objective (Para-chromatic) is very suitable. For textiles and paper-making a 2-in. and f-in. would be adequate, with the additions of a l-in. if more than routine work is intended. The same outfit would suit the agriculturalist, but if dairy work is in view a complete bacteriological set should be obtained.
- If the purchaser is in doubt as to what Objectives should be included with a microscope for any special purpose, Watson’s will be pleased to give the benefit of their experience in meeting similar needs and, if desired, to demonstrate by means of specimens and Objectives what result may reasonably be expected. Such demonstrations may serve to reveal the great possibilities of microscopical methods for certain purposes and also occasionally save disappointment where too much is expected.
- DARK GROUND ILLUMINATION.
- High aperture oil immersion Objectives are now available with iris diaphragms incorporated for a small extra charge, obviating the use of the funnel stop.
- THE PROPER USE OF OBJECTIVES.
- Watson Objectives have been computed to perform at their best under given conditions. Except the Metallurgical Objectives they are arranged to give optimum results on objects covered with a glass 0-18 mm. in thickness, and require under such conditions that the draw-tube should be set at 160 mm. unless ordered otherwise. If the cover-glass actually used has less thickness than this, then, in the case of Objectives of 0-65 n.a. and more, it may be necessary to increase the tube length in order to obtain good definition. If the cover-glass is thicker than 0-18 mm. the tube should be shortened for best results The adjustment is made by inspection of the image and not by measurement.
- The immersion Oil used with Watson Objectives should not be purchased elsewhere. A supply of oil is sent with every oil immersion Objective, and fresh supplies can be sent at a reasonable price. Several oils are sold for use with immersion lenses, and they differ greatly in refractive index and dispersive power from the standard article. They may be good oils if Objectives are computed for use with them, but they are not necessarily suited to Watson Objectives. Some immersion oils have a solvent effect on the cement which is used to hold in place the front lenses of Objectives of great numerical aperture. The oil supplied for Watson Objectives is free from this defect.
- ON APPROVAL.
- In order to ensure satisfactory selection of Objectives, a purchaser may have Objectives for examination for four days by sending a deposit to cover the value as per list. Those who have an account with Watson’s are not asked for a deposit.

- APOCHROMATIC OBJECTIVES
- 5
- TUBE LENGTH 160. mmciiiiii’Il UUUiUllJjDiliijlj saga
- In Objectives constructed entirely with optical glass, even in those of the finest quality such as the Holoscopic series, there remains one outstanding defect which is inherent in the material used, namely, the so-called secondary Spectrum. This arises from the fact that the distribution of colour in the Spectrum produced by the various optical glasses varies with their density, the red end being relatively too long in glasses of low dispersion, and the blue end too long in glasses of high dispersion, the result being that when such glasses are combined to obtain the best achromatism for the brightest part of the visual Spectrum, both the ends of the Spectrum, namely, the red and violet, are refracted too little or, in other words, come to a focus at a greater distance than the middle of the Spectrum; the chief inconvenience arising from the presence of this secondary Spectrum is that the Objectives cannot be used for photographing in white light on ordinary plates, but will only give satisfactory results if Orthochromatic plates and effective colour screens are used. Occasionally the secondary Spectrum also interferes with delicate visual observations because the faint halo of purple light due to it falsifies the true colour of small detail.
- In Apochromatic Microscope Objectives the removal of the secondary Spectrum depends upon the use of fluorite. We are in possession of optically perfect fluorite and produce Objectives of outstanding merit.
- In photomicrography of stained or unstained specimens the colour freedom of Apochromatic Objectives ensures outstandingly pure results. Objectives that are truly Apochromatic can be used with a variety of colour filters without need for refocussing.
- The 16 mm. Apochromatic is not exceptional in aperture. The images given by Objectives of this power in the Parachromatic and Holoscopic series are so sharply defined and so free from colour defects that only the very finest performance can justify an apochromatic 16 mm. The Watson objective does not fall short of this justification, and no images have ever been produced finer than those given by this lens.
- The 8 mm. Objective offers unique convenience to the busy worker. Its numerical aperture, 0-65, is equivalent to that of many achromatic t” Objectives. With a range of Eyepieces it is therefore possible to use the Objective for surveying a relatively wide area and then by increasing the power of the Eyepiece to concentrate upon any given spot, examining minutely. The perfection of correction both spherically and chromatically will be realised when tests with X50 Eyepieces are carried out. It will be found that no deterioration in the image takes place. This lens is as nearly perfect as possible.
- With a view to making the 4 mm. Objective most generally useful its numerical aperture has been reduced to 0-85, although it has been customary to make such an Objective to 0-95 n.a. Professor Conrady has shown that the effective aperture of a dry 4 mm. Objective is limited by considerations of critical angle, relation between R.I. of object and mountant. In addition errors increase rapidly as the n.a. approaches 0-95, the depth of focus becomes nil, and the tube length adjustment becomes an operation requiring extreme skill.
- With the slightly lower n.a. these difficulties are reduced so as to be almost negligible and in the 4 mm. Apochromatic microscopists are offered a lens not only of superb performance, but easy to use.
- 2 mm. Objective n.a. 1-37. This aperture has been deliberately selected as being the one which permits a relatively firm mounting for the front lens, a working distance such that an object beneath a No. 3 cover glass may be focussed, and ability to stand high eyepieces without breaking down. Finally the whole of the numerical aperture of the Objective can be employed. In every way this Objective is unsurpassed.

- OPTICAL EQUIPMENT—OBJECTIVES
- OBJECTIVES—THE HOLOSCOPIC SERIES (SEMI-APOCHROMATIC)
- A reference to the illustration will show that the construction of this series of Objectives is not of the usual type, the correction in all Objectives other than those of lower power than 24 mm. depending largely on a cemented triple back combination.
- The special factors which have made these Objectives famous will be best appreciated from the following considerations.
- When dealing with the wide-angled pencils and consequent great angles of incidence which occur in microscope Objectives, the usual methods for correcting chromatic and spherical aberration prove inadequate ; their shortcomings lead to the presence in Objectives, produced by their use, of heavy residuals of aberration, known to microscopists as spherical zones, and as spherical difference of chromatic aberration. The former of these defects leads to the formation of untrustworthy images, because the required phase-relation of the light forming the image is falsified, whilst the chromatic residual prevents the taking of presentable photographs of objects ; for it amounts to this, that the Objective although tolerably free from spherical aberration for the visually strongest rays, is affected with heavy spherical aberration for other colours, such as those acting most strongly on a photographic plate.
- In the Holoscopic Objectives both these defects are minimised ; the spherical correction is carried to high perfection by so determining the data that the rays which are geometrically united in the focus arrive there in exactly equal phase and are thus in the relation theoretically demanded, but not hitherto realised in practice. The exceptionally perfect spherical correction attained in this manner has often been noticed by expert workers and renders the Holoscopic Objectives extremely valuable for all delicate observations, for it reduces the possibility of spurious images to a minimum.
- Similar perfection has been aimed at in the correction of chromatic aberration, thus rendering the Holoscopic Objective capable of yielding very excellent photographs of microscopical objects, and in order to secure this it was found necessary to adopt entirely new types of Objectives to realise the perfection aimed at, and to produce Objectives equal to the best Apochromatics, except in freedom from secondary colour.
- These Objectives have been highly praised by expert workers who have purchased them for their excellent performance with deep-power Eyepieces, large solid illuminating Cones, annular and dark-field illumination, and the yielding of exquisite photographic effects.
- They meet the needs of the original investigator, and all who would possess the best optical means, in the fullest possible manner.
- The numerical aperture stated is the guaranteed minimum for each Objective. The Lenses may be trusted to have the magnifying power (within a small percentage) corresponding to the equivalent focus given in the list.
- All Lenses in this series with the exception of the low-power lenses, as noted below, are under-corrected for chromatic differences of magnification ; they should therefore be used in conjunction with our Holoscopic Eyepieces (page 19).
- The 2 mm. which has a guaranteed minimum aperture of 1-37 n.a., is a superb lens and is only equalled by the Apochromatic Immersion Objective. Microscopists requiring the maximum resolving power will find their wishes satisfied with this lens.
- Special Note re The three Objectives of lower power than 24 mm. are not under-corrected in the manner Low Powers. that the other Holoscopic Objectives are. They should, therefore, be used either with Huygenian Eyepieces or Holoscopic Eyepieces with the adjusting tube pushed home.

- OPTICAL EQUIPMENT—OBJECTIVES
- 13
- The Holoscopic Objectives were designed to provide a series of Objectives of high numerical aperture whose performance would be equal to that of the most outstanding Apochromatic Objectives, except in freedom from secondary colour.
- We cannot stress too highly the perfection of the spherical corrections of these Objectives. High-power Eyepieces can be used without any deterioration of the resultant image.
- The apertures are such that in conjunction with low-power Eyepieces a comparatively wide field can be surveyed and any local structure more carefully examined by deep Eyepiecing.
- The Objectives can be corrected for any desired tube length between 140-250 mm.
- These Objectives must be used in conjunction with the Holoscopic series of Eyepieces.
- When used in conjunction with colour screens, no difference between these and Apochromatic Objectives will be observed.
- Special Features.
- Watson Holoscopic Objectives were designed to meet a demand by expert microscopists for Objectives which would have a greater ratio of numerical aperture to magnifying power than is to be found in any other Objectives.
- The advantages of this feature of Holoscopic Objectives are :—
- 1. A greater range of useful magnifying power.
- 2. A greater working distance for any given numerical aperture.
- 3. Ability to compensate for the effect of different thicknesses of cover-glass by small changes of tube-length.

- OPTICAL EQUIPMENT—OBJECTIVES
- OBJECTIVES-THE PARACHROMATIC SERIES
- Universities, Schools and many workers find all their requirements satisfied by Objectives of medium aperture provided that the whole of the available aperture is effective and the performance irreproachable. The Objectives listed in the Parachromatic series are in all respects unsurpassed, while they also incorporate features which make them unequalled for general work.
- Advances in design and performance of microscope Objectives are dependent not only upon the skill of the mathematician, but also upon the types and quality of the optical glass available.
- It is now common knowledge that optical glass produced at the present time by the English glass makers is equal in quality and in many instances superior to that made elsewhere.
- Full advantage of these improvements has been taken by Watsons’ technical department.
- There is no finality in optical construction. Unceasing research in optical design is carried on and wherever possible advances are indicated the Objective is recomputed. Thus the computations and formulae to which many of these Objectives are made show a distinct advance since the last catalogue was issued.
- GENERAL NOTE.
- The following features are common to all the Objectives in this series :
- The spherical and chromatic corrections are such that they can be used in conjunction with high-power eyepieces without breaking down.
- The whole of the numerical aperture of each Objective can be utilised providing always that there is a sufficient contrast between the refractive index of the mountant and the refractive index of the specimen.
- LOW POWERS-(4 in. to J in.).
- Low-power Objectives are not distinctly sensitive to correction for tube length, and may generally be used between 160 and 250 mm. without material depreciation in definition. A wide range of magnifying power can therefore be obtained with such Objectives. Further, flatness of field which cannot be imparted in Objectives of high power is an outstanding feature of these low powers.
- MEDIUM POWERS-(I in. to I in.).
- These Objectives are exceptionally fine in performance, and all of them have the special and unique quality of a long working distance between the front lens of the Objective and the object under examination.
- The % in. is the Objective of medium power with which Laboratory work generally is done, and the competition to produce a lens of outstanding merit of this power is so keen that excepting it be to the universally demanded high standard of excellence it would be impossible to sell it at all.
- This 1 in. Objective of the Parachromatic series has found universal favour. Not only has it on numerous occasions been ordered to replace similar lenses of other makes, but its many advantages have led to its standardisation in teaching institutions. It is, in fact, the ideal type of Objective for all classes of medium-power work. It has corrections similar to those of the Apochromatic, and is classed as semi-Apochromatic. The same lens is made with two different numerical apertures, viz., -70 and -80. The great feature of it is that the former has unusually long working distance of 1 mm. The field is relatively flat. It will, in fact, be found flatter than many other Objectives of equal aperture.
- An ample working distance in a lens of this power has long been a desideratum, but it has hitherto been so short that difficulty has been experienced in focussing through the cover-glass of a Haemacytometer, or any other than a No. 2 (-008 in.) cover-glass.
- The examination of objects with thick covering glasses with our % in. has proved an immense boon to workers. This does not cause the sacrifice of other important qualities—in fact its perfection of correction, both for spherical and chromatic aberration, renders it exceptionally fine in performance. This, allied with its great working distance, makes it superior to any other lens produced at the present time for all who use their instruments on other than specially mounted specimens, and it particularly appeals to Students, Laboratory workers, and those who are interested in pond life.
- 4" OBJECTIVE FOR UNCOVERED OBJECTS.
- Modern staining technique and rapid examination of blood films necessitate the viewing of uncovered specimens. The usual design of % in. Objective provides for a cover-glass and, consequently, when an object is examined without this, definition must deteriorate. To meet a very general demand Watsons have designed a J in. Objective for the use of the metallurgist and technician which is corrected for use on uncovered specimens.
- OIL IMMERSIONS.
- These are made in three magnifications and four types. The 1 in. Oil Immersion is intended for those who do a certain amount of bacteriological work and wish to combine in one Objective the qualities of the % in. and the 1 in. The numerical aperture 0-94 is kept low so that the use of a funnel stop for the examination of living spirochaetae, etc. is unnecessary. It can, in fact, be used with ordinary Dark Ground Illumination as it stands. Workers who are unaccustomed to the use of medium-power Oil Immersion Objectives will be astonished at the brilliant definition that is obtained with this lens. The working distance of the lens of 0-5 mm. is such that it can be used advantageously in conjunction with the thick cover-glass of a Thoma Haemacytometer.

- 12" OIL IMMERSION.
- The same lens is made in two types—the " Versalic ” with a numerical aperture of 1-28 and the “ Utility » with a numerical aperture of 1*25.
- In conformity with the usual rule these are called 1 in., but the magnifying power and focus is actually that of a 1 in. in each instance.
- Both these lenses have a flatter field than other first-class Objectives of similar type. They also have a long work-ing distance. In the case of the " Versalic ” it is *43 mm. Although this is so very considerable, the maintenance of oil contact is perfect.
- An important feature of the " Versalic ” Objective is that the front lens is held in position by a metal bezel and is not dependent on cement, as usually prevails in other Oil Immersion Objectives.
- The probability of the front lens being displaced by pressure or other circumstances does not arise in this instance. The front lens is fixed in a manner which renders it practically immovable.
- All the Objectives of the Parachromatic series are specially computed for work on stained objects, but the amateur will find that he is at no disadvantage on colourless objects in consequence. They are the best lenses for Students, Laboratory, and general work that are produced.
- 16" OIL IMMERSION.
- For the Cytologist, high magnification is sometimes even more important than high resolving power. The 1 in. Oil Immersion Objective has been introduced to meet this need. The numerical aperture is- 1-30, and it can be used in conjunction with the deepest eyepieces, giving a range of magnification up to 2000 diameters.
- I" WATER IMMERSION.
- This is specially designed for the Ecologist and all wishing to examine specimens without previous preparation. It can also be used for specimens in alcohol, but the setting of the front lens cannot be guaranteed for a long period.
- 19" WATER IMMERSION.
- The demand in recent years for a lens of this type has led to the introduction of this Objective. It will be found very useful to the Biologist, Zoologist, and other workers.

- OPTICAL EQUIPMENT—OCULARS
- Student’s Eyepiece.
- EYEPIECES OR OCULARS
- Watson’s Eyepieces are made in two patterns— the Universal small, or Student’s size, 23'3 mm. (-9173 in.) dia., and the large size of the Royal Microscopical Society, with caps, to ensure correct position of the eye, 32-26 mm. (1-27 in.) dia.
- Eyepieces of small diameter may be used in draw-tubes of large diameter by the use of an adapter costing 7/6.
- HUYGENIAN EYEPIECES
- This series of Eyepieces has been the subject of considerable experiment and re-computation. It has been found in consequence, that the use of selected optical glasses, instead of the usual ordinary crown
- Best Capped Eyepiece,
- glass, worked to ascertained curves gives results that are superior to those ordinarily obtainable.
- We strongly recommend microscopists to try our Huygenian Eyepieces, and make comparisons between those of our current make and any others they may have hitherto used.
- Huygenian Eyepieces 1-4 Student’s size are all parfocal so that on interchanging the different powers the object remains in focus.
- The advantage of this in Laboratory practice is obvious.
- The magnifying power of each Eyepiece is engraved on the eyecap. This figure represents the number of times the Eyepiece will magnify the image produced by the Objective of the microscope.
- The Eyepieces also bear an ordinal number 1 to 6, which corresponds with the old notation of A, B, C, etc.

- DAYLIGHT EYEPIECES
- The daylight filter supplied for use in the condenser is often lost. Watsons have secured a supply of daylight filter glass of the correct constants and it is used for the field lenses. For many purposes these Eyepieces have been found most useful. They are made in two magnifications No. 2 X6, No. 4 X 10 at 15/- each.

- These Eyepieces are designed to work with all types of objectives, making it unnecessary to have two series of Eyepieces if Parachromatic and Apochromatic or Holoscopic Objectives are used.
- In Achromatic Objectives corrections are carried out in the Objective itself and the Eyepiece serves to a large extent as a magnifier.
- Apochromatic systems, however, are based upon a different conception of design. The Objective besides being corrected spherically is corrected chromatically for two colours only, the remaining correction being carried out by the Eyepiece.
- MOS.
- Thus the owner of Objectives Achromatic and Apochromatic should—to obtain the best results—have a set of Eyepieces for each. Further as the total correction necessary varies from computer to computer there should be a complete series of compensating Eyepieces provided for each different make of Apochromatic Objectives.
- To overcome this very serious difficulty Prof. Conrady designed the Holoscopic Eyepieces. A variable separation between two corrected combinations is provided. For Achromatic Objectives the lenses are brought as nearly as possible together, for the Holoscopic series the lenses are separated to about the third division, for Apochromats to the fifth to eighth division dependant upon the amount of correction required.
- The magnifying powers are engraved on the caps of the Eyepieces and are calculated for the Eyepiece when the adjusting tube is closed.
- Holoscopic Eyepieces offer the further advantage that they give a flatter and more uniformly defined field than the ordinary Huygenian Eyepieces. They can be used advantageously with any make of Apochromatic Objectives.

- ANGLE EYEPIECE
- COMPARATOR EYEPIECE
- Him ill mil
- To enable two microscopic objects to be accurately compared they must be seen with the same eye in the same field of view.
- Watson s Comparator Eyepiece is constructed to connect two microscopes and by a series of reflecting prisms to present the images formed by the two microscopes in the field of view of a single Eyepiece. By its means the similarity or dissimilarity between two objects may be instantly detected. The appliance is particularly valuable in every branch of research, industrial and forensic investigations.

- ANGLE EYEPIECE
- When observing living organisms, loose material or unmounted objects in fluid by means of the microscope it is necessary to keep the stage of the instrument in a horizontal position, in which case the optical axis of the objective must be vertical. In such circumstances it has usually been necessary to direct the eye vertically downwards, a condition which is not only uncomfortable for the muscles of the neck, but also renders vision less distinct. Really delicate observations cannot be made in this manner.
- Watson’s Angle Eyepiece enables the observer to obtain all the advantages of an inclined microscope tube while maintaining the stage in a horizontal position. The image is presented to the observer in the same position as a book or other object placed for comfortable vision.
- Watson’s Angle Eyepiece is an attachment the lower end of which slides into the draw-tube and the
- upper end receives any ordinary eyepiece. The middle portion contains an accurately ground and polished prism which receives the rays from the objective and reflects them completely so that the optical axis of the instrument is deflected 75 degrees. A clamping screw attaches the fitting to the draw-tube of the microscope so as to prevent rotation. The slight increase of tube length may be overcome by the use of slightly thinner covers if desired.

- CONDENSERS—SUBSTAGE 23
- CONDENSERS-SUBSTAGE
- The exacting demands of modern teaching and research work have emphasized the importance of the condenser in the microscopist’s equipment, and a range of condensers both for transmitted light and dark ground illumination, for photomicrography and projection is offered. The following notes will serve as a guide to those who wish to select condensers for any particular purpose :
- Direct Light without a Condenser. For objectives up to and including 1 in. sufficient illumination for ordinary class work is available from the concave mirror, the curve of which is such as to cause a pencil of rays from the illuminant to be brought to an approximate focus in the plane of the stage.
- The Abbe Illuminator. For routine school and teaching purposes the Abbe Illuminator will be found sufficient. This condenser is neither achromatised nor aplanatised and was introduced by Professor Abbe for the universal use of Students and Laboratories because of its insensibility to centring, and its capability of illuminating. It is popular where concentration of light on the specimen is desired but where ultimate resolution is not essential. It is specially effective for dark ground illumination.
- CORRECTED CONDENSERS
- It has been shown that the total resolving power of any microscope system is not only dependent upon the numerical aperture of the Objective but is equivalent to the mean of the aplanatic aperture of the condenser and of the Objective. Thus, the conventional equipment of oil immersion Objective and Abbe condenser cannot in any circumstances give the full resolving power of the Objective. This ’will be seen from the equation.
- Numerical aperture of _ 0-65 + 1-28 _ 1-93
- oil immersion Objective = 2 = 2*
- Aplanatised aperture of Abbe Condenser
- In research work, therefore, or in any work where unknown structure is to be investigated and the full resolving power of the Objective is to be employed a Condenser of aplanatic aperture equal to that of the Objective should be used. There arise certain objections to this: for instance, the Botanist or the Zoologist uses the immersion Objective but seldom. The purchase, therefore, of a condenser with an aperture when immersed equivalent to that of an oil immersion Objective would be an unnecessary expense and the Universal or the Parachromatic Condensers will be found ideal. Conversely, if the Bacteriologist, Pathologist or Cytologist wish to wrest the utmost from their equipment they should select—as their work is predominantly carried out with immersion oil Objectives—the Holoscopic oil immersion condenser. This condenser is so designed that it may be used dry at an aperture of 0-95.
- The general routine worker will find a distinct gain in the use of these condensers in his daily practice. With the exception of the Abbe Condenser, all condensers offered are not only aplanatised but also achromatised. It is not sufficient to purchase an Objective such as the Holoscopic, Apochromatic, or even modern Parachromatic in which colour corrections have been carried to a high degree of perfection and expect that the chromatic beam yielded by the Abbe Condenser will assist these to give optimum results. Objectives are not capable of eliminating colour when this is in the beam of light transmitted through them, their corrections are necessarily based upon the assumption of a corrected beam of light. Under these circumstances a combination of the Parachromatic Objectives with the Universal or Holoscopic Condensers will give superior results to a combination of these Objectives with an Abbe Condenser, while the results will be superior to the use of Apochromatic Objectives with an Abbe Condenser.
- Recent developments of substage design have led to the introduction of Condenser changers of similar design to Objective changers. The objection to the use of several condensers when it was necessary to shift the whole substage apparatus is now overcome, and in addition to the centring screws to the substage Watson’s research condenser changers to-day incorporate separate centring arrangements on the condenser slides themselves. It is thus possible to have a series of condensers all interchangeable on the same substage of the microscope and all co-axial, immediate exchange can be made without the necessity for recentring on each occasion. To the busy worker, especially those using dark ground illumination, this adjunct will be found advantageous.
- Three forms of dark ground condenser are offered. The Holoscopic Immersion Paraboloid which has found such favour among all workers, which is standardised by the Indian Government for all medical services, by H.M. Admiralty for use throughout the Fleet, and by many teaching Institutions, is retained. This Condenser will be found the most satisfactory for general diagnostic practice; it should be used with Objectives whose aperture is less than 1-0. An oil immersion Objective may be employed provided a funnel stop or iris diaphragm for reducing aperture is inserted. Alternatively, we recommend the semi-apochromatic 1 in. oil immersion Objective 0-94 N.A. for this purpose.
- The Cassegrain Dark Ground Condenser is made for use with all Objectives up to 1-40 N.A., dependent upon the refractive index of the medium employed. Thus specimens mounted in water or serum the refractive index of which is 1-33 should be examined with Objectives having an aperture not greater than 1-28.

- CONDENSERS—SUBSTAGE
- The New Long Working Distance Zonal Dark Ground Illuminator has been introduced for use by those whose research requires dark ground illumination in conjunction with high powers and deep cells. These condensers are made in two types, one for use with Objectives having a numerical aperture not greater than 145 and with a working distance up to 2-5 mm. ; this condenser is fitted with the standard R.M.S. thread. The alternative condenser having a larger front lens 25 mm. diameter is supplied with the Watson Universal and Abbe size condenser thread and can be made with a working distance of 4 mm. It is also designed for use with Objectives whose numerical aperture does not exceed 145.
- Please specify the working distance required at the time of ordering.
- GENERAL INDICATIONS FOR USE OF THE VARIOUS CONDENSERS
- Macro Condenser. This is intended for use in conjunction with photographic and other Objectives of 2 in. and longer focal lengths. In use the Condenser should be racked up until almost in contact with the under surface of the specimen. The beam is then brought to a focus inside or beyond the Objective, by this means an evenly illuminated field is provided and the whole of the specimen can be photographed without difficulty. For projection with low powers or for projection drawing, this condenser, which is fully achromatised, will be found ideal.
- Low Power Condenser. For Objectives whose aperture does not exceed -45 this condenser is indicated, having a relatively long focus a large area is illuminated with a resultant equality of intensity of illumination over the whole field. If critical illumination be employed and the light source focussed in the plane of the object it will be found that the image is sufficient to fill the field of these Objectives.
- Universal Condenser. This condenser is designed for those whose work is primarily with low and medium powers. Having a focal length of 1 in. the light source, assuming that the Pointolite, oil lamp or similar radiant is employed, will be found to fill the field effectively -with a B in. Objective.
- If low powers such as the 3 in. Objective are to be used and full aperture is required combined with a large image of the light source, the top lens of the condenser may be unscrewed and a fully achromatised combination is left.
- Parachromatic Condenser. This is suitable for workers with medium and high powers who desire to be able to use the oil immersion Objective with critical illumination. The focal length of this condenser is 1% in., and consequently a smaller image of the radiant is projected into the field of view and this will be found sufficient for oil immersion Objectives, while the concentration of light into the smaller area is of great advantage.
- For low powers such as the 3 in. the top lens may be unscrewed when a fully achromatised and aplana-tised combination at N.A. 0-40 remains.
- Holoscopic Oil Immersion Condenser. This serves the purpose of those requiring maximum resolving power from their Objectives. It can be made with apertures from N.A. 1-30—1-37 and for any thickness of slip from 0-9 mm.—1-4 mm. Its corrections are as perfect as those of an achromatic oil immersion Objective, and for critical high power visual or photomicrographic work this condenser has no equal, the performance of Objectives and the detail seen is immeasurably increased especially if critical illumination be employed.
- The condenser will be found to perform in every way satisfactorily if used dry with dry Objectives, while with the front lens removed an aperture of 0-55 is available.
- In fact one of the best known microscopists of the day remarked when using this condenser “ It is like another eye.”
- In our series of substage condensers, we provide for all classes of work, with every power of Objective, as follows :—

- The freedom of the lens-system from spherical aberration shows the degree of aplanatism attained. In the above table the aplanatic aperture is very large in relation to the full aperture : a sufficient indication of high efficiency.
- As already explained achromatism is as important as aplanatism for really good results; particularly with highly corrected Objective systems. All the above condensers are achromatised.
- Special attention is drawn to the new Condenser Changers described on pages 42 and 43.

- THE UNIVERSAL CONDENSER
- 12601
- For rapid work, a condenser having large lenses is an immense advantage, and in the Universal Condenser a diameter of back lens is given, which in practice affords all the convenience of the larger sizes. With it work can be done as rapidly, and more accurately, than with any other Condenser, while the beautiful achro-aplanatic corrections render it the finest all-round Condenser procurable.
- It is constructed on our Holoscopic System, a triple back lens producing the correcting effect. It is this system which has enabled us to produce in our Holoscopic Objectives and Oil Immersion Condensers, corrections for spherical aberration, which have made them famous as the best examples of optical skill and perfection in aplanatism.
- We would emphasise the enormous aplanatic aperture it yields. Its total aperture is aplanatic, if the exact thickness of slip (1 mm.) be used for which it is corrected. It will work through any reasonably thick slip, but is slightly under-corrected for thin ones. This can, however, be corrected by partly unscrewing the front lens so as to cause it to touch the slip when in focus.
- The Mounting is the same as used for the Abbe Illuminator, with which the Universal Condenser will interchange. It has iris diaphragm and cell for stops.

- SUBSTAGE CONDENSERS
- HOLOSCOPIC OIL IMMERSION CONDENSER
- The Holoscopic Oil Immersion Condenser is designed for the Expert Research Worker and Connoisseur to exhaust the possibilities of all Oil Immersion Objectives.
- It is constructed on the same plan as our Holoscopic Objectives in which all corrections for chromatic and spherical aberration are effected by a triple cemented combination. Its total numerical aperture is 1-30 ; it can be used with glass slides up to 1-4 mm. in thickness and it will give an aplanatic cone of rays to the limit of its aperture. This is equal to the utmost requirements of modern Objectives of the greatest aperture.
- If desired this Condenser can be made (specially to order) with a numerical aperture of 1'37 ; but its use would be limited to slides not
- exceeding 1-3 mm. in thickness.
- The Holoscopic Oil Immersion Condenser may be used dry (without immersion oil). Under such conditions its numerical aperture is F0 and the aplanatic cone of rays is 0-92 N.A.
- When Objectives of low or moderate power are occasionally resorted to and a change of Condenser would be inconvenient it will be found that the removal of the top lens of the Holoscopic Oil Immersion Condenser converts the latter into an efficient Condenser very suitable for such Objectives.
- N.B.-—It is not fully realised what an excellent condenser this is for dark ground illumination with Objectives of high numerical aperture.

- The continued popularity of this Condenser is due to the ease and rapidity with which it can be employed and for its brilliancy of image.
- Although its numerical aperture is great, being 1-20, its Aplanatic Cone is comparatively small, but the ease with which it can be used has caused it to be universal for both high and low power routine work ; for the latter purpose the top lens is removed . A beautiful dark-ground effect may be obtained with it with Objectives up to 0-45 N.A.

- W. WATSON & SONS’ IMMERSION PARABOLOID (Adopted by H.M. Admiralty)
- The purpose of this Illuminator is to display minute organisms and ultra-microscopic particles, brilliantly illuminated upon an intensely black field.
- It will be found very suitable for the detection of many living pathogenic organisms in blood and watery media and for the differentiation of structural details in tissues which are not amenable to staining processes.
- For the convenience of those who use the English type of Microscope, of the Holos Immersion Paraboloid is so mounted that it can be inter-
- the optical portion ____________ _________________________ ___________ _____ - _____
- changed with the ordinary optical part of the Abbe Illuminator and similar Condensers supplied by ourselves and other English houses, and therefore used in conjunction with the Iris diaphragm mounting which carries the Abbe Illuminator optical part, Nos. 12802 and 12803.
- It can usually be supplied to fit any other make of Microscope that may be specified.
- Essentials of Successful Working.
- 1. The Holos Immersion Paraboloid must in every case have oil between it and the object slip, and the contact must be maintained, and all air bubbles avoided.
- 2. The Paraboloid must be accurately centred.
- 3. The object slip must be within 20 per cent, of the thickness engraved on each of the Paraboloid mountings. A supply of suitable slips is included with each Paraboloid.
- 4. The specimen should be in as thin a layer of fluid as possible.
- 5. The source of light must be a very brilliant one, and a lamp condenser should be used.
- The annular illumination provided by the Paraboloid extends from about N.A. 1-0 to N.A. 1-45, and it is noteworthy that the use of the Iris diaphragm cuts out the rays of low numerical aperture first, so that the illumination becomes more and more oblique. This is a very favourable circumstance, as it secures the greatest resolving power attainable under the circumstances of dark ground illumination for all Objectives exceeding -48 numerical aperture.
- The smaller the source of light the more care is required in making the adjustments, and in using slips of the proper thickness. The latter is, therefore, engraved on the mount of each instrument.
- Oil immersion Objectives can only be used with the Paraboloid if a special stop is used which reduces their numerical aperture below 1-0.
- Annular Illumination.
- This Paraboloid is also excellent for the resolution of striated objects such as Diatomaces. T ’he
- Objective is then used at its fullest aperture, the illumination from the Paraboloid being annular
- and oblique in all azimuths.

- DARK GROUND ILLUMINATOR
- CASSEGRAIN DARK GROUND ILLUMINATOR
- Designed by Mr. E. M. Nelson.
- The “ Cassegrain ” Illuminator is so named because its curved reflecting surfaces are disposed somewhat similarly to the mirrors of the reflecting telescope invented by Cassegrain. Mr. Nelson discovered that this arrangement, applied to the construction of an oil immersion dark ground illuminator, favoured an intense concentration of rays of greater obliquity than had been utilised before.
- Objects mounted in media of high refractive index such as Canada balsam, styrax, or realgar, may be so illuminated by this Condenser as to be seen brilliantly upon a dark ground with Objectives having numerical apertures up to T37. This implies a resolving power of 40 per cent, in excess of that obtained with dark ground illuminators which require the aperture of the Objective to be reduced to TO N.A. or less.
- Objects such as living bacteria and spirochaetes in aqueous media may be illuminated upon a dark ground by the " Cassegrain ” Illuminator by reducing the aperture of the Objective to 1'25 N.A. by means of a funnel stop or iris diaphragm. Water, having a refractive index of T33, will not receive the most oblique rays given by this illuminator, but nevertheless the increase in resolving power over other types is 20 per cent.
- The apparatus represents a great advance in dark ground illuminators and, as it can be employed with Objectives of the highest apertures now made, without the use of a funnel stop, it attains the limit of possibilities of dark ground with visible light.
- A very intense source of light is not necessary with this illuminator. An oil lamp may be used, but for laboratory work a gas-filled pearl-frosted electric lamp is recommended. The illuminator will focus through glass slides having a thickness of from TO to T2 mm. For centring purposes a fine circle is engraved upon the upper surfaces of the illuminator. Two glass discs bearing central patch stops are supplied with the illuminator for use with different Objectives.
- The Illuminator may be screwed into any mount supplied for Watson Abbe Illuminators or Universal Condensers, and is thus interchangeable with these accessories.
- A “ Cassegrain ” Illuminator made of quartz is supplied for use with ultra-violet light.

- Made in two forms, this has been designed especially for use in tissue culture and other work where the material must of necessity be mounted in cells either on glass slides or on thick slips with excavated centres. The working distance is governed by the size of the top lens and in producing two patterns our aim has been to have Condensers available for any pattern microscope.

- NEW SUBSTAGE CONDENSER MOUNT
- In all Watson’s previous Microscopes, when fitted with centring substage, provision has been made for hinging the whole substage with condenser out of the optic axis. This movement is most helpful for low-power work, but the new design of rigid form of centring substage has necessitated the redesigning of this movement.
- In general work the Condenser is not removed, but there are occasions when it is preferable to do without a condenser, and a new design of condenser mount has therefore been evolved. In this the optical part of the Condenser swings out of the optic axis, but the Iris diaphragm remains in the substage; it is thus possible to control the intensity of illumination. The swing-out has been designed on new lines ; a trigger is now fitted to the part of the mount carrying the condenser optical part and this trigger is of case-hardened steel, and instead of the sharp-angled catch commonly used on optical instruments a blunt-ended piece is employed which engages in a correspondingly wide slot on the lower section of the mount; this slot is also of case-hardened steel.

- FOR USE WITH THE WATSON HOLOS IMMERSION PARABOLOID AND OTHER ILLUMINATORS.
- W. Watson & Sons LTD
- London.
- Many clinical workers experience difficulty in the rapid setting up of apparatus for diagnosis by dark ground illumination, inexactitude in centring the light or wrong placing of the lamp condenser being fruitful causes of trouble.
- By means of the Electric Light Attachment dark ground illumination may be effected rapidly and with certainty. The small enclosed electric lamp gives brilliant illumination and is held in its correct position relatively to the illuminator. A condensing lens is interposed between the lamp and the illuminator.
- The appliance is attached to the fitting of the Watson Holos Oil Immersion Paraboloid and, as this fitting is similar to that of the Watson “ Universal ” Condenser, Abbe Illuminator and Nelson Dark Ground Illuminator, it may be used with these illuminators also for direct illumination, photo-micrography, etc.
- The lamp may be supplied with current from a dry battery or accumulator or from the ordinary house supply through a suitable resistance which serves also to control the intensity of illumination.

- PRINCIPLES OF CONSTRUCTION
- PRINCIPLES OF CONSTRUCTION
- In the intervening period between the issue of one edition of a catalogue and the next it generally happens that some changes have taken place or some modifications made in the design or the construction of most of our Microscopes. This has taken place because some better way has been found of manufacture and which at the same time gives definite advantage to the user of the instrument. All readers of this catalogue may not be familiar with the salient features of our Microscopes, so we propose to state them as concisely as possible, indicating the most recent developments.
- General
- The success that has been achieved by the Watson Microscope has been largely due to appreciation of the working conveniences and permanent working qualities which they afford ; one aim in their construction has been to minimise the number of parts. So successful has this been that the risk of anything becoming unscrewed or loose is practically non-existent. Thus rigidity and freedom from tremor is assured by the solidity of the various parts and proper balancing.
- The fitting of adjusting screws to all working parts is another important factor in the long life of Watson instruments. It is not merely wear and tear that has to be contended with in the fittings of a microscope; other considerations such as dust, extremes of temperature, thoughtless handling, all play havoc with the delicate fittings and adjustments which are associated with a good microscope. Watson’s adjustable fittings enable any part to be taken to pieces by a mechanic or a careful worker so that it may be cleaned, oiled and, when replaced, screwed exactly to that degree of fitting which gives the movement that is not too tight but is just tight enough. Workers in the tropics and remote places have in numerous instances testified to the unique benefits that they derive from this valuable provision.
- This method of control has been an outstanding feature of the Watson Microscopes for more than forty years : it is not an experiment, it is a happy experience by which every user benefits. It will be more fully explained as the various parts of the Microscopes are described.
- It is in consequence of the foregoing and the fittings which will be described hereafter that Watson’s are able to give a guarantee of five years and to assure the user of a lifetime of working efficiency.
- The Limb.
- The limb of the Watson Microscope is something more than is usually called by that name and exhibits the way in which multiple parts held together by screws have been superseded by a solid casting. The limb, as shown in the illustration on page 38, carries the body at one end, the substage at the other ; between are the supporting bracket pieces for the stage, and at its extremity is the mirror fitting.
- Further advantages are offered ; the dovetailed fittings which carry the body and those which carry the substage are machined in one continuous operation ensuring basic alignment throughout. Simultaneously the stage brackets are machined to ensure that they are truly at right angles to the body and substage. A degree of accuracy never before imparted is thus assured and the substage once centred to the body always carries the condenser in the axis of the Objective.
- To this limb which was originated in our works we give the title of the Optical Bench Limb.
- Incidentally we may say that in recent months the limb has been lengthened at the eyepiece end and thickened.
- Compare this with the many parts, all likely to become loose, of which older Microscopes were constructed.
- The Body Tube.
- The Microscope body has hitherto consisted of the outer tube with a fitting which screwed into the lower end of the body tube and was threaded to receive the Objective. This body tube was fixed to the bar on which the dovetails were machined, to form the coarse adjustment, the fixing of the body tube and bar being done either by screws alone or by screws and solder.

- Watson’s are offering something which is definitely in advance of this; the body tube, the Objective fitting and the bar are now machined out of one solid piece of metal and the risk of the parting of either portion is abolished for ever. Enduring parallelism between the optical and mechanical axes is ensured. The reader’s kindly reflection on what this important development means and its beneficial effects will disclose that definite progress has been made. The body tube

- The Drawtube.
- With the narrow drawtube corresponding to the diameter of the standard Student’s size eyepieces hitherto supplied in microscopes, a certain amount of internal reflection almost inevitably occurs, and instruments fitted with these drawtubes cannot be advantageously used with low-power photomicrographic Objectives, particularly without eyepieces.

- PRINCIPLES OF CONSTRUCTION
- On all Watson microscopes excepting the " Kima,” the drawtube now fitted is 34 mm. diameter. It is provided with the Royal Microscopical Society’s thread at one end and a fitting for an eyepiece at the other end. This is so arranged that the eyepiece fitting is slightly smaller than the internal diameter of the drawtube and the eyepiece may be regarded as virtually suspended.
- This overcomes internal reflection and glare. In addition, the eyepiece fitting is so arranged that it may be unscrewed.
- The diameter of the body is of sufficient size when the eyepiece fitting is removed, to permit of the use of low-power photomicrographic Objectives without any cutting off of the field.
- The drawtube is divided to show the tube length with and without the nosepiece. It is finished in chromium plating.

- The horizontal lever fine adjustment was adopted by Watson’s fifty years ago, and the accumulated experience of years has shown this principle to be the most enduring, satisfactory and the most sensitive available. Every possible way of achieving slow motion on the Objective has at different times been tried in the experimental department, but none has been found to excel this in effectiveness.
- Vertical Lever Fine Adjustment.
- The demand for fine adjustments operated from the side of the limb has of late years become insistent among students and workers in laboratories. Watson’s experience with the lever pattern led them to experiment on these lines and the type introduced by them in 1919 on their “ Service ” model microscope has been used ever since, and it may be claimed without exaggeration that it has proved itself to be the most effective side-limb fine adjustment available.

- Reference to the two illustrations shows the method in which this adjustment is carried out.
- Fig. 4.—Horizontal Lever Fine Adjustment—The whole body of the instrument is supported on the shorter end of the lever “ C,” boxed in the limb of the stand. The long end rests against the point of a micrometer screw which is actuated by a milled head. Double spiral springs exerting their force along the plane of movement keep the body pressed closely against the lever.
- It will be observed that the fulcrum “ D ” is as close as possible to the body, thus minimising the actual weight to be raised. In the “ Edinburgh Student’s ” microscope the arm on one side is 3-25 times longer than that on the other. The weight of the body to be lifted with its drawtube and course adjustment fitting is 2 lbs. The screw has 70 threads to the inch.
- The movement covered by one complete turn of the milled head is 230 in., and this is actually sensitive to l/100th of a rotation of the milled head.
- Both the lever itself and the bearing points are of polished hardened steel, and a long dovetailed bearing is provided despite the fact that movement only takes place over a distance of 8 in.
- Fine Adjustment of the Vertical Type.
- In this the lever is so placed and shaped that its pressure against its opposing point is always perfectly vertical. Hitherto this type of fine adjustment has been fitted in conjunction with a compression spring. In Watson microscopes a new recoil spring of tempered cast steel is used, thus introducing a further permanency and instantaneous response where the instrument to be used is in the horizontal position.
- The micrometer screw which moves the lever with the milled head, is operated on both sides of the limb, and is contained in one unit and fixed as a unit into the instrument, as will be seen in the illustration Fig. 6.

- CARRIERS FOR CONDENSERS
- CARRIERS FOR CONDENSERS
- Various forms of Condenser Carriers will be found listed to meet all requirements. With the exception of the “ Kima ” model Microscope the spiral screw focussing underfitting has been discontinued. The new design of optical bench limb has resulted in the introduction of a substage ring cast solidly with the metal head carrying the rack, thus securing a further advance in rigidity.
- The types of condenser carrier now available on Watson’s Microscopes are :—
- The plain ring underfitting to carry a condenser or iris diaphragm, in which focussing is by sliding.
- The spiral focussing screw underfitting supplied on the “ Kima ” Microscope only, see illustration, page 57.
- The plain rackwork focussing substage for “ Service ” models.
- Substage rackwork focussing with centring screws.
- Substage rackwork focussing with Research pattern Condenser Changers.
- These last three focus by milled heads on both sides of the limb in a manner similar to that of the coarse adjustment.
- The exacting requirements of modern research have shown the importance of accurate centring arrangements of the substage condenser. In dark ground illumination the centring nose-piece cannot take the place of a centring substage: it can be but a makeshift at best.
- With the centring substage, eyepiece, objective and condenser may be made to conform to a common optic axis. Wherever a microscope is purchased other than for class work, particularly in the case of those who intend carrying out serious microscopy either as amateurs or research workers, we cannot emphasise too strongly the importance of this fitting.
- The Carriers for illuminating apparatus below the stage may be of either of three types.
- 1. A plain tubular fitting in which the condenser slides up and down to focus.
- 2. The Simple Substage (as illustrated, Fig. 9, page 41). This consists of a solid casting with tube to carry the condenser in sleeve pattern mount with iris diaphragm. A certain amount of latitude is given to the sleeve fitting so that at any subsequent date, if after rough handling in the laboratory it is found that the condenser is no longer central, necessary centring can be carried out by releasing the screws AS. This substage is provided with rackwork focussing. The adjusting screws to the dovetailed fitting are shown at A.
- 3. Centring Substage (as illustrated, Fig. 10, page 41). For this, in addition to the plain casting mounted on the rackwork slide, centring screws CS are provided so that any form of condenser can be axially aligned to the optical system ; a new form of substage condenser mount (page 31) is supplied in which the optical part of the condenser hinges aside laterally. It is secured by a steel catch and released by a trigger.

- CARRIERS FOR CONDENSERS
- Research Substage.
- This substage is based upon the centring substage, but incorporates certain unique features. In addition to centring screws to the bracket, an iris diaphragm is mounted in the substage ring. Above the substage ring, cast solidly with it, are dovetailed slides. These carry the condenser changers so that it is possible to use a series of condensers in the course of a day’s observations to exchange from one to the other in exactly the same manner as with Objectives.
- Watson Condenser Changer Slides are all fitted with independent centring adjustments which in turn have clamps. Each condenser can therefore be centred to the optic axis of the microscope and then exchanged from one to the other without recentring.
- The method of setting up is as follows :—
- With a low-power Objective on the body of the microscope, focus the iris diaphragm mounted in the substage, and centre this to the axis of the microscope. Thereafter the centring screws of the substage should not be touched. The condenser on its slide should now be introduced. This condenser, being an optical system, forms an aerial image of the substage iris diaphragm. This aerial image should be focussed by means of the Objective and then the condenser optical part brought into alignment with the eyepiece, Objective and substage iris by means of the independent centring adjustments provided. It is then clamped to that position and is ready for use.

- The technique for setting up of this substage appears on the foregoing page. It offers unique advantages in every form of microscopy.
- PHOTOMICROGRAPHY
- Where the microscope is mounted as part of the complete apparatus, and where a wide variety of magnifications, ranging from perhaps xlO diameters with a photomicrographic type lens, medium magnifications with 3 in. and similar objectives, high magnifications with l in. and 12 in. objectives are used, condenser changers will be found indispensable. By this method also the change over from ordinary transmitted light to dark ground illumination is carried out quite easily. Each condenser is mounted on a separate slide, with its own centring arrangements, thus rendering it interchangeable and co-axial with the other condensers in the outfit. A series of photomicrographs at different magnifications can be taken without the necessity of dismounting and fitting a different type of condenser and re-aligning the optical train. In other words, as objectives are rotated on the nosepiece, or substituted by means of the objective changer, the same procedure is followed with condensers.
- In the Laboratory, particularly in Research or Pathological Laboratories of small hospitals, immediate exchange between transmitted light and dark ground illumination is frequently essential. The difficulty of carrying out this exchange daunts many microscope users owing to the loss of time and the difficulty connected with illumination when using a dark ground condenser. The substage slides overcome this difficulty.
- For General Microscopy, for the amateur and the isolated worker, for the Works Laboratory, the series of combination available when an additional slide is supplied to the lower surface of the substage will be readily appreciated. It is then possible to use the substage lamp, with a polarising prism, or any other desired combination.
- The importance of substage technique is increasingly recognised. Watsons are always prepared wherever possible to reconstruct the fitting below the stage on other makes of microscopes, substituting for non-centring substages their own specialised designs.

- MICROSCOPE FEET
- Two designs of foot are available—the English or tripod foot, and the horseshoe or Continental foot.—In consequence of its wide spread the tripod foot is of necessity more rigid than the horseshoe foot and will be found preferable by those who purchase microscopes for their own use, and by photomicrographers. The wide spread of the two front toes removes all restriction upon the apparatus which may be mounted on the substage. With this type of foot, rigidity is secured without undue weight.
- Horseshoe Foot.
- The lack of stability associated with this type of foot has been removed in Watson’s design. Actually, the foot is slightly undercut and bears on three points. The backward projection is sufficiently long and heavy for the microscope to be used horizontally without risk of its overbalancing. For use in classes among students this type of foot is recommended, for even if brought to the edge of the bench the back toe can overlap to some extent witbout fear of the instrument falling to the ground.
- All Watson Microscopes can be provided with horseshoe or tripod foot at the option of the purchaser.

- MICROSCOPE STAGES
- MICROSCOPE STAGES
- Methods of Attachment.
- To all Watson Microscopes the stages are attached in a unique manner. It will be seen from the shadow illustration of the optical bench limb (p. 38), that cast integrally with this limb are two widely-spaced massive brackets ; these are the stage carriers which are machined in the same operation as the limb surfaces, thus ensuring their position at right angles to the optic axis, and a freedom from flexion with perfect rigidity is assured.
- The stages of microscopes may be divided into two classes—one, the plain stage, and the other with mechanical movements.
- PLAIN STAGES.
- All the Watson plain stages are of METAL and have the surface finely finished so that the object which is moved upon them with the fingers may do so quite freely and exactly.
- To ensure the surface being optically flat, it is ground by similar tools and by the same process as that used for plane lenses. Spring clips are provided for holding the object in position, and the size and distance apart of the holes that receive the butts of the springs are standardised, so that any additional stage fittings such as a mechanical stage can be fitted through the same apertures in the stage as are provided for the spring clips.
- The two principal forms of plain stages are :—
- That fitted to the “ Kima ” Microscope (p. 57), which is 100 mm. x 95 mm. and is of solid metal, chemically bronzed on the surface; and that of the “ Service” Microscope (p. 61), which is mm. 125 x 125 mm.
- At the point where these stages are fixed to the limb, a machined metal to metal contact is made, but the remainder of the “ Service ” Stage is entirely enclosed in vulcanised rubber, and to ensure that this vulcanised covering will remain flat even under tropical conditions, the metal of the stage has holes drilled at intervals so that the vulcanite meets through these apertures and becomes solid with the stage. (See illustration, p. 39.) The covering cannot buckle or distort.
- ROTATING STAGE.
- The plain stage is also made with the upper surface to rotate. Such an example is shown on p. 48.
- MECHANICAL STAGES.
- Mechanical stages are of two types, in each of which there is considerable diversity. One is the fixed mechanical stage which forms part of the microscope itself and cannot be detached, and the other consists of mechanical arrangements which are placed on the surface of the plain stage so that an object can be moved over its surface by means of the rackwork and screws provided.

- In this catalogue the fixed form of mechanical stage is shown on such instruments as the “ H ” Edinburgh Student’s (p. 71), the “ Research ” (p. 73), “ Royal ” (p. 79) and the “ Van Heurck ” (p. 87). The principle of construction of all these is alike, and it is known as Watson’s “ Standard ” mechanical stage. For the highest excellence in working and accuracy of movement, this is unquestionably the most satisfactory pattern of stage that is made. The object is placed on the top plate and when moved horizontally or vertically the object and plate are displaced as a complete unit. Another advantage is that if an oil immersion condenser either of the direct transmitted light type, or the darkground type, be used in conjunction with an oil immersion Objective, the resistance of the immersion oil is overcome and the object is positively carried by the travelling top plate of the stage. With the attachable forms of mechanical stage the immersion oil is apt to retard the travel of the specimen.
- This form of stage necessitates a large central aperture to the stage to accommodate the condenser top and the mechanical movements are in consequence limited to some extent. The clear horizontal and vertical motions of such stages is 1 in. Against this limitation, however, must be set the fact that slides of any thickness and any size from 2 in. upwards may be used.
- THE ATTACHABLE FORM OF STAGE.
- The attachable form of stage is made in several different patterns, and will be found illustrated on pages 48 and 49. These are made with extreme care and accuracy and are all arranged to be fitted on the surface of a plain stage, the object being held between two points and carried across the stage by means of rackwork and/or spiral screw in rectangular directions.
- To add to the effective working, supplemental springs are fitted to all the Watson stages to secure the object. These have been found to add substantially to the sure action of the mechanical movements when immersion oil or dust might cause obstruction.
- The following are some of the stages which are manufactured by W. Watson & Sons, Limited, with their special claims and features :—
- The “ Service ” pattern mechanical stage—equivalent to a built-in mechanical stage, that is, a stage that is built as a permanent part of the microscope.
- The " Alpha ” pattern mechanical stage, a simplified form employing the " Service ” motion.
- The " Student ” mechanical stage, a simple robust enduring pattern of novel design.
- The Murray Long Range stage for the examination of serial sections mounted on large plates, specimens up to 1-plate size, i.e. 44 in. x 34 in. (106 mm. x 81 mm.), may be examined from corner to corner.
- The “ Bactil ” stage, a built-in type with removable motions which permit the substitution of a plain plate for fluid preparations.
- The " Patna ” stage, a rotating mechanical stage with centring movements.
- All these stages are interchangeable on any microscope of Watson’s manufacture with the exception of the " Kima ” model. The price has been placed against each stage, so that the difference in price may be known and added to the cost of any instrument listed with another form of mechanical stage ; the substituted type being capable of adaptation at the price shown.

- “SERVICE” MECHANICAL STAGE. (As illustrated on page 48.)
- Contrary to usual practice the horizontal motion of this stage is effected by a 1-circle rack which engages with a helical screw ; actually there are eight teeth in engagement, thus minimising the risk of loss of time resulting from wear common to the horizontal action of all mechanical stages. The rack for the vertical motion is mounted in the centre of the stage instead of at the side, so that the thrust incidental to this form of movement is negligible. Provided with accurately ground base plates this stage fits in intimate contact with the plain stage of the microscope and gives the satisfactory performance of a fully built-in mechanical stage. Horizontally the motion is 3 in. (75 mm.) clear, vertical 1% in. (37 mm.). Millimetre scales are fitted to each movement and read by verniers to 0T mm.
- The stage is secured to the microscope in the following manner: two projecting steel rods fit through the apertures provided for the stage springs, which are standardised in respect of size and distance apart. These rods have threads at their lower end to which milled nuts are fitted; these nuts are screwed up from below the plain stage and hold the mechanical stage firmly in position. It can also be adapted to most modern makes of microscopes.

- ADDITIONAL FITTINGS—MECHANICAL DRAWTUBE
- 51
- ATTACHABLE RACKWORK DRAWTUBE
- The mechanical drawtube is arranged to replace the ordinary sliding drawtube that is supplied with the " H ” Edinburgh Student’s, the " Bactil ” and the “Service” Microscopes.
- Fig. 17
- Reference to the accompanying illustration will show that this mechanical drawtube is an independent attachment consisting of a long bearing fitting, which carries the rackwork draw-tube " A ” and an inner tube “ B,” which slides in the ordinary way.
- The great convenience of it is that it can be immediately interchanged with the ordinary drawtube fitting, in the above-mentioned Microscopes.
- The collar which carries the sliding drawtube is unscrewed ; the screw attached to the mechanical drawtube, being identical, enables the latter fitting to interchange with the ordinary sliding drawtube.
- Lest the milled heads should not come exactly square with the front when the tube is screwed home, a knurled ring " C ” is provided, and this enables the fitting to be clamped in any desired position.
- The use of the new " Cassegrain ” Dark Ground Illuminator (see page 30) has emphasised the necessity for adjustment for exact tube length, to obtain the maximum effect from modern Objectives, and this new attachment is one item in the list of fittings which enables the user to convert his Student’s Microscope into a research model.

- REASONS FOR CHOOSING A WATSON MICROSCOPE
- It is British made, and has a special claim on British workers.
- It is scientifically constructed for scientific work. Whenever a Microscopist is desirous of wresting from his instrument the utmost it is capable of producing, he has of necessity to employ the refinements and conveniences which the long experience of experts has proved to be the sole means for achieving such results. All of these are embodied in the Watson Microscopes.
- The following distinctive features are peculiar to Watson Microscopes and will not be found in combination, and, in the majority of cases, not individually in any make of British or Continental Microscope.
- The Watson Microscope has
- The unit construction of the body ensures a rigidity and permanence hitherto unapproached.
- The large diameter drawtube overcomes halation and simplifies photomicrography, and permits the use of larger illuminating cones.
- The Tripod or modified horseshoe foot which imparts perfect rigidity. A Microscope so mounted does not fall over when touched.
- A long range of Coarse Adjustment, enabling it to be used for low magnifications as well as for the highest. A wide range of fully corrected low-power Objectives is also supplied.
- A mechanical drawtube which allows of precise adjustment of the tube length for thickness of cover glass.
- A Mechanical Stage scientifically constructed as a part of the whole instrument, with a long range of motion and long effective life. Where attachable the method of attachment ensures the rigidity of the stage on the microscope and ready repetitions of the vernier readings.
- A Compound Substage with centring screws, so that the Condenser or dark ground illuminator may be easily rendered axial with the Objective. It is fitted with rackwork to focus, controlled from both sides of the limb, and can be supplied with a Fine Adjustment.
- It is constructed on the Optical Bench system, which ensures greater rigidity and perfection of working than any other method.
- The fittings carry Substage Apparatus, Eyepieces and Objectives of the Royal Microscopical Society’s standard size.
- The working parts have sprung fittings with adjusting screws, whereby wear and tear may be compensated for.
- The Substage Condensers have the necessary aplanatic cones for developing the fullest capacity of the Objective. They are achromatised and improve the performance of any Objective.
- WATSON’S BRITISH-MADE MICROSCOPES
- are the instruments of to-day and the future. If you use one of them you will work to the fullest advantage.

- E BACTIL’ AND “ PATNA”
- 63
- THE " BACTIL" AND "PATNA" MICROSCOPES (MODIFIED 1933)
- (Constructed to the specification of the British Science Guild, for a High-Power Research Microscope.)
- For Research, the Laboratory and General High-Power Work.
- These models are in general construction the same as the " Service ” Microscope, but with a larger foot and the added and very important modification that the instrument is fitted and adjusted by hand in the same manner as our best Research Microscopes ; each part is co-ordinated and the instrument is built up and supplied as a complete entity.
- It is possible to add the “ Service ” Mechanical Stage, and a Compound Substage, to a “ Service ” Microscope, but the result achieved by building the whole at one time as in the " Bactil ” Microscope, is a more satisfactory one, and its advantages will be readily recognised.
- In the “ Patna ” model the mechanical stage is provided in addition with rotation, centring screws clamp to rotation. A plane plate replaces the mechanical stage when required.
- For interchangeable high-power binocular and monocular bodies, standard type and inclined, see page 106. The unit construction of the body is maintained.
- The stage—which is of the " Service ” model, Fig. 12, page 48—is now built in on a heavy metal base plate. For work with fluid preparations or under other conditions where a plain stage is an advantage, the whole upper surface and horizontal motion of the stage is racked off and replaced by a plane plate 5" x 5", so providing a level surface and protection for the rack.
- The Coarse and Fine Adjustments are as described in connection with the " Service ” Micro-scope on page 37. The Standard Condenser Carrier is a Compound Substage (Fig. 10, page 41) with Centring Screws. If provision for hinging the condenser out of the optical axis be required, specify the new substage mount, page 31. The Research substage may also be fitted if required, for prices see page 43.
- The dove-tailed fittings in which all mechanical movements take place are provided with compensating bearings.
- The whole instrument receives most careful and accurate adjustment and ensures that smooth and exquisite working that can be imparted only by the expenditure of unrestricted time on the part of the skilled craftsman.
- Dr. Murray’s Long-Range Stage or any of the other stages described between pages 47 and 50 may be supplied in place of the “ Service ” Mechanical Stage, if desired, at the prices shown.
- Rackwork drawtube, substage lamp, all can be fitted to these models and used to advantage.

- RESEARCH MICROSCOPE
- MICROSCOPES FOR RESEARCH
- The Student uses his Microscope principally to see known structures, or to determine the absence or presence of definite appearances. For this purpose a satisfactory equipment can be readily specified.
- When the purpose of the Microscope is to reveal the unknown and perhaps the unexpected, every resource which science can offer in both mechanical and optical equipment becomes essential.
- It often happens that a structure or an organism can only be observed by means of the most refined optical equipment.
- The use of Objectives, Eyepieces and substage apparatus to the limit of their capacities can only be accomplished in conjunction with Microscopes that are provided with the necessary mechanical movements, acting in the most precise manner and of extreme rigidity.
- Such delicacy of action can be and is provided in a robust form for continuous use in Watson Research instruments, but they are neither essential nor advantageous in the ordinary laboratory routine.
- A special type of Microscope is therefore made in a class by itself, and Watson’s are the only manufacturers in the world who offer a series of microscopes so designed that the optical equipment is able to perform under optimum conditions and fully develop the resolving power. They have a specialised knowledge of requirements, and retain for manufacture, skilled craftsmen who have spent their lives in the handwork that is essential in this particular class of instrument, both making, fitting and adjusting. No other firm to-day has such men on their staff.
- Certain important movements should be included in research instruments. Among them are the rackwork adjustment to draw tube, which enables the precise tube-length to be used to compensate for the slight aberrations caused by the difference in the thickness of cover slips, or depth of object in the mountant. The fine adjustment is Watson’s standard lever, which long experience has shown to be the most precise, sensitive, and durable in design that has ever been made. This excellence is in part due to the care and precision with which it is made, added to its simple yet very sound design.
- An outstanding fact is that it is the only fine adjustment at present made which has stood the test of sixty years and is still the best.
- The Mechanical Stage is built into the Microscope, and gives a facility in working of which none of the skeleton or attachable patterns is capable. Where rotation of the object is necessary the stage is built to revolve concentrically, and centring screws to adjust the axis of rotation to the centre of the field can be provided.
- The focussing of the Substage Condenser is always by rack and pinion, and where desired a fine adjustment can be added. This is a most valuable ally when high-power Condensers and Dark Ground Illuminators are used.
- In every case the instrument is supported by a tripod, the spread of which ensures the utmost stability, and a properly balanced support, but a horseshoe type foot can be fitted if preferred.
- All mechanical movements are fitted with compensating screws to adjust for wear and tear.
- A lifetime of satisfactory working service is secured by using a
- Watson Microscope for Research.

- EDINBURGH STUDENT’S “ H ”
- 69
- THE EDINBURGH STUDENT'S MICROSCOPE
- STAND "H"
- The Standard Model for use of the British Navy.
- REMODELLED WITH MANY IMPROVEMENTS
- This instrument is illustrated on page 71 of this list. It is the most popular model that we make, and, as such, merits a few words of special description and commendation.
- In its general design, this microscope leaves nothing to be desired. It is massive, without being cumbersome, and the arrangements and proportions of its various parts will be found in practice exceedingly convenient. Constructed, as it is, with a perfect-working mechanical stage and substage, furnished with a graduated drawtube, and the most sensitive of fine and coarse adjustments, this microscope is capable of any class of work. Thus, with one-twelfth inch oil immersion objective and other apparatus, as detailed in Set 17005, it is extensively used in bacteriological work and is unsurpassed for the purpose. Arranged with a projection eyepiece and objectives of high aperture, it will stand the severest test of high-power photomicrographic work. The range of rackwork to the Coarse Adjustment is sufficient for the use of very low-power Objectives, giving a distance between the Stage surface and nosepiece end of body of 3% inches. It is thus a Microscope that meets the demands of the worker, no matter what they may be, in the most satisfactory manner, and while its many conveniences make it always advantageous and appreciated in the Laboratory, it is no less a favourite with the amateur worker, who will always find it unequalled for ease and satisfaction in working. Further, it offers for its price fuller combined advantages in completeness of design and perfection of workmanship, than any other Microscope.
- GENERAL SPECIFICATION
- General Construction. The limb is cast in one piece from top to tailpiece; the various fittings—body, stage, substage, etc.—are all mounted in alignment on this limb, giving the effect of an optical bench, with wonderful rigidity.
- The dovetailed hearings of the substage and fine adjustment are machined in the same operation.
- The Body of unit construction is of large (40 mm.) diameter and the drawtube (34 mm. diam.) usually supplied carries Eyepieces of the Student’s size, but can be fitted for large Eyepieces 1-27 in. diameter if required without extra charge.
- The Foot, of tripod form, is extremely rigid and efficient. We always recommend the tripod pattern where extreme portability has not to be considered. It is altogether superior to other patterns. Its spread is 7 inches.
- The Mechanical Stage is our Standard pattern with compensating screws as described, pages 75 and 76. The range of horizontal movement has been increased to 1 in. The milled head controlling the horizontal motion is stationary, and the plates so arranged that the condenser is not fouled at any point of the travel. The surface of the stage has a thin covering of ebonite attached by vulcanizing.
- The Substage has rackwork to focus and screws to centre. The controlling milled heads are mounted on both sides of the limb. The bearing, machined in the solid extension piece of the limb, is in the same plane as the fine adjustment bearing.
- The Fine adjustment is of our horizontal lever pattern. One revolution of the milled head moves the body one three-hundredth of an inch. The action is sensitive to one-hundredth of a turn of the milled head, thus giving a motion of one thirty-thousandth of an inch to the Objective.
- The height is 11% inches.
- Each instrument has plane and concave mirrors.
- All fittings are of R.M.S. Standard gauge, and all bearings have compensating screws.

- True mechanical stages of the English pattern, in which the object is carried in two directions (and not slid upon the surface of the stage) are so superior for delicate and high-power observations that no one who has used one will be content with the other kind. Such a mechanical stage is part of the Microscope stand, and cannot be added as required. The precision with which the object is moved across the field of view in two directions is dependent upon metal slides and bearings accurately machined and fixed at right angles to the optic axis. The movements of the slides are controlled by rack and pinion for the vertical direction and by a four-thread screw for the horizontal. The bearings have special adjustments for wear. The size of the upper plate exceeds 80 x 80 mm., and is ample, as the slide is not moved over but with the plate. The range of movement, 1 in. vertical, 1 in. horizontal, enables a surface of that size to be explored without disturbance of the Objective or Substage Condenser.
- The great and many advantages of this type of mechanical stage are a special cause for the favour enjoyed by the Watson Microscopes to which it is fitted. These Microscopes are the Edinburgh “ H,” “ Research,” “ Royal,” Grand Model “Van Heurck.”

- Fic. 19. Corner view of Standard Stage to show system of springing.
- The Stage surface is in full view, Fig. 18, and the manner in which the movements are effected will be plainly seen. The horizontal travel to the Stage is made by the rotation of the stationary milled head F, that is, it does not move with the traversing plates of the Stage. The plate E is connected with the long screw operated by the milled head F, and the screw is supported by a slotted collar, which gives adjustment for wear. To give the smoothest possible motion, the screw has a ball fitting (A): in this is a groove, which acts as a receptacle for foreign matter. The little plate B fits over the ball, and is so attached that no internal shake takes place. C is the adjusting screw for regulating the pressure of the pinion upon the rack in the vertical movement of the Stage. The Verniers D, Fig. 18, which can be used for measuring or for " finding ” objects, are an extra, costing 30/-. When verniers are supplied it is advantageous to have the sliding bar, as illustrated, at an extra cost of 30/-.
- The planed fittings of the Stage have slots through which screws pass at FF and GG (Fig. 19) so that any wear in the plates can be immediately taken up.
- The advantages of this stage are manifold, and at once occur to the experienced worker.
- The methods used in the above Stages, which give a lifetime of working efficiency, are adopted in other mechanical stages of our make.
- A variety of Mechanical Stages of the Attachable pattern, concentric rotating, etc., are described in this list on pages 47-50.
- Mechanical Stages are made in several different patterns so as to give workers as wide a range of choice as possible. Each is described and illustrated in conjunction with the various models, but in several instances the Stage is applicable to a different style of Microscope.

- THE “ ROYAL’ MICROSCOPE
- A RESEARCH MICROSCOPE OF MEDIUM SIZE
- This Microscope incorporates all the fine details which are so advantageous in critical work and is intended for those who require a Microscope of highest class, adequate, but not too large in size and in effect provides the advantages which have gained so high a reputation for the “Van Heurck ” Microscope, see page 81, but in a more compact form and at a lower cost.
- The height, when placed vertical and racked down, is 123 in.
- The tripod foot is shod with cork and has a spread of 8% in.
- The Body
- The Mechanical Drawtube
- The Mechanical Stage
- is of large size—40 mm. diameter, of unit construction, and is fitted with both mechanical and sliding draw tubes, giving an available range of tube-length from 140 mm. to 270 mm.
- with inner sliding draw tube, as described page 51, is incorporated. It carries eyepieces 1-27 in. diameter, but, if so desired, can be supplied to carry eyepieces of the Student’s or Continental size.
- is of our Standard pattern as described pages 75 and 76. It has a horizontal movement of 1 in. and is covered with ebonite attached by a vulcanizing process. It is fitted with a sliding bar.
- The Limb While conforming to the general design which imparts the rigidity for which these instruments are so justly famous, the limb has been lengthened to extend above the coarse adjustment milled head fitting and at the same time increased in thickness. The dovetailed bearings of the fine adjustment slide and of the substage are machined in one operation so ensuring permanent alignment. Cast integrally with the limb are massive widely spaced lugs to which the mechanical stage is bolted. These form a support across the whole width of the stage baseplate.
- Below the stage mounting is the bearing on the limb extension for the substage. Thus when the substage is focussed the object upon the stage is unaffected by any stress or flexure and remains in focus.
- The Axis Joint is an actual ground fitting and not a spring fit between two cheeks. Bearing collars are also employed.
- The Substage has a clear focussing range of 14 inches and may be used conveniently with low power condensers for photomicrography. In the regular model it now has coarse adjustment and centring screws with fine adjustment without extra charge. This should be specified when ordering. The substage fitting and slide are now a solid casting achieving a further advance in rigidity and a special substage mount has been designed in which the optical part can, if desired, be hinged out of the optic axis. Accuracy of return is provided for by fitting a hardened steel lever catch.
- Modern research requires the use of at least two and often three separate substage condensers, and we therefore recommend the inclusion of the Research substage when ordering this instrument. The comfort and increased efficiency resulting from the use of this apparatus with its co-axial condensers cannot be too greatly stressed.
- The Coarse Adjustment is by diagonal rack and pinion, as described page 36, and in connection with the “ Van Heurck ” Microscope, on page 82.
- The Fine Adjustment is our standard lever pattern.
- It will thus be seen that the many special features combined in this Microscope render it suitable for those who require an instrument of the highest class. It will be found to respond in the fullest manner to the exacting demands of the photomicrographer and research-power worker, particularly those whose work demands the use in combination of oil immersion Objectives and Condensers. Its many conveniences ensure that theoretical resolution is obtained with all types of objectives and condensers. It is invaluable in the laboratory, for which its strong construction and excellent mechanical stage are especially advantageous, while for the varied purposes of the amateur it is unsurpassed.

- VAN HEURCK
- 81
- THE VAN HEURCK MICROSCOPE
- For Research and General Purposes.
- Grand Model. The most completely fitted Microscope extant, and of handsome proportions
- and build throughout.
- Can be supplied with tripod or horseshoe foot at choice.
- The Van Heurck is the most completely-fitted model manufactured, and represents all that is most modern in microscope design and manufacture; it is hand made throughout and embodies that “ craftsmanship ” for which the British workman has always been famous; Watson microscopemakers take a pride in these instruments. Their finish gives that sense of satisfaction which is never felt to quite the same extent in other productions.
- The aim in its construction has been to present, in the most efficient form possible, mechanical movements of complete and comprehensive description, in a design of maximum rigidity, and to maintain every feature in the most up-to-date manner. We can assert unhesitatingly that the complete control which is afforded in working enables the finest results to be secured with a rapidity and comfort which is unique. It has brought the most gratifying testimony from many of the leading microscopists of the day, and this, coupled with the fact that the Van Heurck is now used by many of the foremost workers in every branch of research, is a sufficient guarantee of the perfection attained.
- When first introduced it was the most complete and efficient model of its time, and ever since its inception every improvement and every feature which makes for enduring efficiency and ability to extract the uttermost from the optical equipment has been included in this model.
- Photomicrography, especially with high powers of large aperture, demands a working excellence and accuracy of the highest grade in every part—it is, in fact, the severest test to which a microscope can be put. In the construction of this Instrument the usual causes of failure have been eliminated. It will at once be recognised that the precision which is requisite for high-power photography and which is provided in this Instrument, is of immense value to the ordinary visual worker, for it enables him to secure the fullest and most effective means of conducting his researches. Especially does this apply to Laboratory work, in which reliance has to be placed on the results obtained ; and to those who are doing original and accurate work, this microscope will be found to embody every convenience for rendering such work more easy and exact.
- The Van Heurck is, in fact, the last word in modern microscope construction.

- VAN HEURCK
- VAN HEURCK MICROSCOPE-Continued
- The general construction of this intrument merits special consideration.
- The Coarse is effected by Watson’s diagonal rack and pinion, and has sufficient range for Adjustment a 4-inch Objective. The pressure of the pinion on the rack is adjusted by
- the two screws shown in the accompanying Fig. 20. N is a block of antifriction metal which supports the pinion shaft on each side, and it is on this supporting block that two adjusting screws act, one of which, M, is shown in Fig. 20. The most sensitive relation of pinion to rack can be established and maintained at all times. These adjusting screws are shown in position on the fitting plate in Fig. 21.
- Fig. 20. Sectional View of adjustable fittings of rack and pinion.
- Fig. 21. View of fitting plate of coarse adjustment.
- The Fine is our Standard lever form, but, being made with a very long lever, the
- Adjustment motion imparted is very slow and precise.
- The milled head is divided to hundredths, and one revolution moves the body, up or down, the thirteenth of a millimetre. The adjustment is sensitive to the hundredth of a turn of the milled head, which would give the one thirteen-hundredth of a millimetre, or the l/33300th of an inch of motion.
- The Body is provided with two Drawtubes, one actuated by Rackwork and the other
- sliding inside it, as figured above. The advantage of having these is that the body can be made very short, or extremely long. Thus sufficient latitude can be obtained to use Objectives corrected for either English or Continental tube-lengths, and to adjust them for thickness of cover glass by variation of tube-length; both drawtubes are engraved in millimetres to show tube-length.
- The lower end of the drawtube has the universal screw for low-power Photographic Objectives, the Apertometer, etc., and the nosepiece is removable by unscrewing. The usual size of Eyepiece-fitting is the Royal Microscopical Society’s gauge, 1-27 in. diameter, but any smaller size can be employed, and larger sizes can be had specially to order.

- VAN HEURCK MICROSCOPE—Continued
- The Stage Mounted upon a wide supported bracket the utmost rigidity of support is secured. Concentric rotation is provided, there is a large rectangular central aperture, and the plates are as thin as is compatible with rigidity. In this type the top plate and specimen move across the optic axis as a complete unit. Above all a large clear surface is afforded for the free movement of specimens with the fingers, and a sliding bar is provided to support the object when desired. Any special arrangement for holding specimens, other than the usual sliding bar and springs, can be supplied to order, if required. Compensating adjustments are fitted to all movements.

- The Substage is of specially substantial construction; it has rectangular screw adjustments to centre, very fine rackwork to focus, and is arranged to swing out of the optical axis. A Fine Adjustment is included with the
- U Grand Model instrument. It H may be either of two patterns : M (1) to work from above the Stage surface by the method shown in Fig. 22 and in position on the Instrument on page 87, or (2) by means of a vertical lever worked by a milled head, mounted parallel with and just above the rackwork milled head of the Substage, as shown (F) on the Royal Instrument on p. 79. The former method of mounting entails a slight extra charge (£1 5 0).
- A Fine Adjustment is essential for highest power Research work with modern Immersion Condensers of wide aperture and precise focus. Slight alterations to focus can be effected without disturbing the film of oil, specimen or setting up vibration.
- A Special The maximum stability is imparted in an original manner. Instead of the Feature. various parts being merely screwed together, they are fitted one into the
- other, thus rendering the structure as solid as though it were one piece of metal. As will be seen from the accompanying figure, the Bracket CC carrying the stage, instead of being screwed to the front of the limb, as is customary, is made in one solid casting, taking the substage beneath on the plate D, and going right into the joint at the top of the pillar. The limb A is fitted into the Stage Bracket D, held firmly by screws, and the joint bolt B goes through the whole—Limb and Stage Bracket—making the Limb, Stage, and Substage as if they were one piece. The strength and freedom from spring obtained by this Optical Bench system is unique in microscope construction, and altogether superior to microscopes which depend on screws only for the joining together of their parts.

- VAN HEURCK
- VAN HEURCK GRAND MODEL MICROSCOPE
- This Model has been altered in several respects in order that the demand for a long range of Mechanical Stage movement with complete rotation at any position may be met. The stage now has 2 inches of horizontal traverse and is fitted with movable object clips and removable spring bar clips. It will be readily seen that the shape of the limb gives great freedom to the stage surface, and incidentally acts as a convenient handle.
- It is especially recommended to those who require a full-sized instrument of highest grade for the most critical work.
- SPECIFICATION
- The height of the stand, when placed vertically and racked down, is 14 in. The height to optical centre, when the stand is horizontal, is 10 in.
- The tripod is shod with cork and has a spread of 93 in.
- The stage is capable of complete rotation, and has a range of 2 in. in the horizontal and about 1 in. in the vertical directions. The milled heads work on one centre, and, if desired, can both be rotated simultaneously, imparting a diagonal movement. The diameter of the stage is 5 in. It has complete concentric rotation. The object is gripped by double sliding bars. Ordinary object clips are also supplied, but are removable. The Instrument may be fitted with a less expensive pattern of stage as quoted below, if desired.
- The fine adjustment is our Standard horizontal lever.
- The compound substage is arranged to be turned aside from the optical axis and is fitted with a fine adjustment.
- The mirrors are plane and concave, and are 23 in. diameter.
- All fittings are of R.M.S. standard gauge.
- The instrument is accurately balanced and remains firm and rigid in any position, and is therefore especially recommended for photo-micrographic, analytical, and general high-class work.
- The construction has been detailed on pages 81 to 84.

- ULTRA-VIOLET LIGHT
- ULTRA-VIOLET LIGHT (INVISIBLE RADIATIONS) AND DARK GROUND ILLUMINATION
- PHOTO-MICROGRAPHY WITH ULTRA-VIOLET LIGHT.
- In “ Practical Microscopy,” by Dr. Shillington Scales, published in 1909, appears a very concise description of the apparatus necessary, and we extract from it some of the important points and difficulties which are associated with the work :—
- “ The resolving power of a lens depends upon its aperture, and with cedar oil as an immersion medium we are limited to an N.A. of about i’4. An immersion lens has been constructed for use with monobromide of naphthalene which has an N.A. of about 1-6, and proportionately greater resolving power, but this medium is, unfortunately, unsuitable for mounting most objects, so that this lens has not come into general use. But we can increase the resolution in two other ways— either by increasing the refractive index of the mounting medium, and so shortening the wave-length of light, or by using light of shorter wave-length. White light is known to be made up of rays of different wave-lengths and refrangibility, those at the violet end of the spectrum being much shorter than those at the red end. Monochromatic light, selected by means of a prism or screen, and taken from the blue, or, still better, the violet end of the spectrum, will consequently give us greater resolution than ordinary white light, which combines so many rays of longer wave-length. This is taken advantage of in photo-micrography, and the result is a very definite increase in resolution—say, of the markings of a difficult diatom. Unfortunately, the eye itself is but little sensitive to such rays, so that it is not easy to see the object directly, or to focus it, though such light has high actinic value. Dr. Kohler, of Jena, has, however, experimented with ultra-violet rays of a still shorter wave-length—275uu.—which have even greater power of resolution, but are, of course, invisible, and has lenses made of crystal and fused quartz corrected for this wave-length, which, as monochromatic light is used, have the incidental advantage of needing correction only for spherical, and not for chromatic aberration. The N.A. of the strongest system is 1-25, which gives a resolving power, as compared with an imaginary ordinary lens used in daylight, equivalent to N.A. 2*5, on account of the small wave-length of the light used. The light itself is obtained from a 2 mm. spark between cadmium electrodes of a Leyden jar, worked with an induction machine, and light of the required wavelength is separated by an iris diaphragm and passed through a condenser made of quartz.
- “ But the human eye, as has just been stated, cannot see these rays, and so cannot focus and adjust them. Therefore Dr. Kohler has devised what may be called an artificial eye; in other words, he constructs what corresponds to the lens of the eye—i.e., an Eyepiece, made also of quartz, and a retina or screen made of fluorescent glass, which responds to the ultra-violet rays.

- ULTRA-VIOLET LIGHT, Etc.—Continued
- The image on the screen is examined visually by means of an ordinary pocket magnifying—‘ lens,’ in which case Dr. Kohler has found magnesium light, having a wave-length of 28Quu., more suitable than cadmium light. This lens, impervious to the injurious ultra-violet rays, lengthens them, and so renders them visible for rough examination and focussing. A photograph is then taken, showing the finer detail. It is to be noted that these quartz lenses can only be used with light of the wave-length for which they are constructed, that an immersion medium of suitable refractive index (made of glycerine and water in proportions calculated to give such a definite refractive index) must be used, and that the cover-glasses and slides must also be made of fused quartz, or the latter can be made of ultra-violet permeable glass.”
- For comparative purposes it must be stated that Objectives composed of quartz lenses having numerical apertures respectively of 35 and *85 would give, if illuminated by ultra-violet light as already described, relative apertures of 70 and 1-7 respectively.
- It has to be remembered that this work is limited to photography only, that it requires a number of special lenses, mountings and fittings generally for the exclusive purpose, and consideration would have to be given to any value which might attach to its use before a purchase were embarked upon.
- An estimate of the cost of an outfit is shown on a succeeding page.
- It must not be overlooked that Mr. Barnard says in his contribution to the " Lancet ” on the subject that “ Focussing by means of the fluorescent image is both difficult and dangerous owing to the action of ultra-violet light on living organisms. Changes can be set up which might be regarded as normal appearances in the organisms. The actual exposure, therefore, of any material to ultra-violet must be the shortest possible. There is no reason to regard the action on living organisms as a trigger action, a certain time factor is involved, but precautions must be observed to ensure that no change due to the light itself is set up.”
- DARK GROUND ILLUMINATION.
- Of much greater practical value is the dark ground illuminator, and especially that pattern which can be used with any Oil Immersion Objective utilising its full aperture without a funnel stop in the Objective to reduce its efficiency, and which is effective through the thickness of an ordinary 3 in. by 1 in. slip. Such is the Nelson Cassegrain of Watson’s make. Mr. Barnard remarks—" In the light of recent experiments it is, in fact, clear that full resolving power is obtained more certainly by an efficient dark ground illumination method than by any other means,” and this undoubtedly is true. The effects obtained by its means are so widely and appreciatively known that full details are not necessary. It is now made in a new form of quartz for ultra-violet light.

- SPECIALISED MICROSCOPE
- THE “HORIZONTAL” MICROSCOPE
- The most rigid microscope extant for Photomicrography and Projection.
- This instrument is designed as a fixed horizontal Microscope of the highest class, arranged for attachment to a photographic bench. The base, which is a solid metal one, has four clamp screws, both the Body and Stage being supported on metal pillars so as to impart the maximum of stability.
- The Body is of extra large diameter, and is fitted with a Draw-tube. Focussing is effected by means of a diagonal rackwork and pinion.
- The Stage, which corresponds with the one fitted to our Van Heurck Microscope, rotates concentrically and has mechanical movements with long range of traverse. The movements are divided, and read by verniers to 10 of a millimetre. This Stage is moved to and from the Objective in substantial bearings by means of a rackwork and pinion.
- The construction is unusual in that the Fine Adjustment moves the Stage instead of acting on the Body. This obviates the necessity for re-setting of the light source when a Vertical Illuminator is in use, and very exact adjustment to focus can be obtained by the Fine Adjustment that is provided, which is of the lever pattern.
- To enable focussing to be carried out on the focussing screen of the Camera which may be some distance from the Microscope, a Hooks’ Joint Handle is provided which gears with the Fine Adjustment milled head. A Bull’s-Eye Condenser for illuminating opaque objects is also supplied.
- The Substage and Mirror, as shown in illustrations are extra.

- THE RAMSDEN
- MICROGRAPH
- The need for simplified apparatus for general use in Examination of Structures by Projection, Measurement of Structures, Crystals, etc., by Projection,
- Photographic Records of Raw Materials or Finished Products, has been long and increasingly felt under modern methods of production and inspection.
- Many admirably designed instruments are available for this purpose, but the heavy initial cost, complexity of design, difficulty of manipulation save by a specially trained technician, provision of extra movements and fittings necessary only for research, operate against their general employment,
- An added difficulty with the ordinary micro-scope devices is that of indicating and explaining structure to non-technical observers, but with the Ramsden Micrograph the image is projected, thus structure may be examined and discussed in conjunction with other observers.
- The Ramsden Micrograph, which is the outcome of research by Colonel Ramsden, and which has been in constant use for over four years, is now being made available for general use by manufacture on a quantity basis.
- As will be seen from the specification, the instrument is robust and of the simplest design; it will give satisfactory performance even under conditions of the roughest use.
- METHOD OF OPERATION
- To set up for the examination of transparent objects by transmitted light.—Place the object on the stage; switch on the light in the upper lampholder. The objective being screwed into the objective collar, focus by turning the focussing screw. The image should appear sharply on the ground-glass screen in the sloping front of the body.
- To set up for examination by reflected light.—Slide the vertical illuminator into its guide slots on the top of the body, taking care that it is centrally under the objective. Switch on the current to this illuminator. Lay a piece of thin paper on the stage and move the stages up and down the vertical gui de rods till the spot of light is at its smallest size. Then clamp the main stage on to the vertical guide rods by the clamping screw on the right side. Place the object to be examined face downwards on the stage, using a card with a small hole in it to support very small objects. Focus the object as above by means of the focussing screw.

- HORIZONTAL READING MICROSCOPE
- MICROSCOPE.
- W.WATSON&SONsuO .LONDON
- The Horizontal Microscope is for the purpose of measuring small vertical distances, or small differences between vertical distances of moderate length.
- The base is a flat tripod fitted with levelling screws and bearing a circular spirit bubble.
- From this base rises a tubular column in which a graduated tube slides and can be clamped at any height. At the upper end of this inner tube is a bearing for a bar of triangular section which slides within it and is graduated. The movement of this bar is controlled by rack and pinion. A vernier is attached to the bearing. Upon the upper end of the triangular bar rotates a casting which carries the microscope focussing movement which is by rack and pinion. The horizontal body tube moved thereby is similar to that of an ordinary microscope except that it carries a long spirit bubble for precise levelling.
- A 2-in. Objective is supplied with the instrument. The Eyepiece is fitted with a micrometer scale at the focus of the eye lens.
- A telescope object-glass can be supplied to interchange with the microscope objective for distant readings.

- VERNIER MEASURING MICROSCOPES
- VERNIER MICROSCOPES
- With cast-iron bed, upper surface planed with a V and flat and fitted with a slide, which can be clamped at any point. This slide carries a second slide, which is moved by a fine screw and fitted with a vernier, by which the scale on the bed-plate can be read to 0-02 mm., the total length of scale being 16 cm. A microscope is carried by a knuckle-jointed projecting arm attached to the second slide, by which it can be set, vertically and horizontally— or turned through an angle of 90° on an axis at right angles to the axis of the microscope. Thus it can be set in several different positions with respect to the position of the scale, some of which are shown above.
- A glass micrometer scale, with which the size of small objects can be measured to one fiftieth of a millimetre and, by estimation, to at least one-fourth of this size, is placed at the common focus of eyepiece and objective.
- A telescope object glass can be used in place of the microscope objective, thus converting the instrument into a short range cathetometer.

- MUSEUM MICROSCOPE
- THE WATERHOUSE PATTERN
- As supplied to the South Kensington and other Museums.
- The Museum Microscope gives facilities for the display of a number of mounted microscopic objects in a museum or exhibition, where it is required to leave the instrument unattended, and at the same time prevent injury to microscope and specimens. As here illustrated, it -will be found thoroughly reliable and adequate in every way.
- It consists of a dust-proof mahogany-framed glass case, in which the Microscope is fitted. The 3 x 1 in. slides, twelve in number, are placed upon a brass drum, which can be rotated from outside the case, a spring catch indicating when the object is centred. The Eyepiece of the Micro-scope projects outside the case, and fine focussing is effected by rotating the eyepiece in a spiral slot.
- This new pattern embodies useful features suggested by past experience and combines convenience in observation with security against any interference with or removal of parts of the instrument. The door by which alone the inside of the case is accessible is fitted with a good lock.

- MUSEUM MICROSCOPE
- No. 3 PATTERN
- One of the difficulties associated with revision work in teaching is that owing to restricted space and need for microscopes in classes, demonstrations can only be staged for a matter of a few hours. The hitherto accepted design of Museum Microscope has not provided for its use with high power dry objectives.
- Model No. 3, constructed originally for an Indian University, meets both these needs. The drum carries twenty-four prepared specimens, these can be easily changed as frequently as may be required and if left in departmental museum or the Laboratory can be used as a demonstration set. All objectives up to and including the 1 in. (4 mm.) can be used efficiently.
- As will be seen from the illustration the Microscope consists of a teak (or mahogany if preferred) containing case having at the back an aperture to admit light from a lamp mounted exterior to the case. Inside and on the back surface of the case is mounted a substage of standard size carrying an Abbe condenser to efficiently illuminate higher power objectives. Mounted upon a central pivot and with appropriate stops is a revolving wheel carrying at its periphery a series of clamps which serve not only to secure the prepared specimen but to which also an adjustment is fitted so that all specimens may be brought to the same plane of focus. This wheel takes the place of the microscope stage.
- On the front surface and within the case is mounted a microscope body, fitted with rackwork coarse and lever fine adjustments. On the front of the case will be seen the handle controlling rotation, numbered to correspond with the slide in the field of view, also a roughened surface ivorine plate (easily washed) upon which may be written the names of the specimens mounted within and their order of examination.
- To set up for use :—After switching on the current for the lamp, focus the condenser to illuminate the field, place each specimen in its clamp, secure lightly until the desired structure has been found (specimens from 2 x 2 in. to 3 x 11 in. can be used), secure firmly by tightening the clamp. Set fine adjustment to its middle position to allow ample focussing latitude for all visions, adjust object to desired plane of focus with fine adjustment as set. Repeat for each specimen, lock and close the case. The instrument may then be left ready for students, etc., the specimens cannot be touched or damaged. The fine adjustment only is available to the observer after the case has been closed.

- MCARTHUR WATSON PORTABLE MICROSCOPE
- Size 41x42"
- Weight 3 lbs. 12 ozs.
- For detailed description by Dr. McArthur see J.R.M.S. Series III, vol. liv. No. 3, Sept. 1934, p. 182/5.
- soarom
- This instrument incorporates many unique features and constitutes a radical departure from conventional design. Its portability and simplicity of use, freedom from risk of damage in transit will immediately be appreciated by all who require a travelling microscope and where it may be used far from a base laboratory or research station. For rapid bedside diagnosis the consultant will find this instrument invaluable.
- The entire microscope is contained between the two stout metal side plates. The mirror folds flat down upon the condenser,—for use it is raised and may be inclined and rotated to any convenient angle for light. The Object stage slides forward between stops and the instrument is ready for use. Light from the mirror is reflected down through the condenser, which is provided with an iris diaphragm, through the specimen to be examined, to the Objective. Provision is made on a moving number for mounting three Objectives, we recommend 12, 3 and 1 or 3, 1 and 7% 0-mm., according to the work to be undertaken. The sliding number carrying the Objectives serves as a nosepiece and can be moved forward against spring stops bringing each objective into alignment. These Objectives being accurately parfocalled a fine adjustment only is needed for focussing. The image formed by the Objective is displaced through an angle of 90° by means of a prism mounted in the base of the microscope frame, a similar prism at the base of the Eyepiece tube diverts the image formed by the Objective up through the Eyepiece to the observer. The prism box is removable for cleaning in tropical climates.

- FIELD PORTABLE MICROSCOPE
- A simple instrument, light and rigid, of the greatest value to the Zoologist or Botanist of any of the many microscope users whose profession demands a considerable amount of field work. The microscope stand consists essentially of a central pillar forming the front leg of the tripod and carrying the fine and coarse adjustments. The fine adjustment is of the spring loaded direct acting type while the coarse adjustment,—effected by rack and pinion,—carries a stout metal sleeve within which is the microscope body tube. The tube may be slid up and down within this sleeve to afford an extra focussing latitude for the use of very low power Objectives.
- Mounted upon the main pillar is the microscope stage, fitted with stage springs, made of metal and of sufficient size to carry a slide with trough or live cell. Dependant from the stage is a tube to carry iris diaphragm or condenser and at the end of the foot pillar the mirror is mounted.
- For packing purposes the two side legs of the tripod fold inwards to the body, the body is racked downwards to the stage and the whole instrument when closed measures 6|", weight 1 lb. 13 ozs.

- BINOCULAR MICROSCOPES
- The Microscopist who has always used the monocular form of microscope can have no conception of the assistance accruing from a three dimensional picture of the structure or of the beauties that are to be found among the specimens he is constantly examining. Through the monocular type only one plane of the object can be focussed at a time, consequently the true interrelationship of the cells and other tissues forming the picture must be built up mentally by focussing the different planes in turn. With the binocular instrument the several planes of the objects examined stand up clearly in stereoscopic relief. This three dimensional picture is of assistance in the rapid determination and classification of structures. To lovers of pond life, entomology, etc., it gives a new field of pleasure and study. To the constant worker the use of both eyes affords relief and the Microscope can be used for prolonged periods without any strain or discomfort.
- Wenham Binocular Body for Microscope.
- There are four forms of Binocular Microscope body available for the Microscopist :—
- The Watson Wenham Stereoscopic System.
- The Watson High-Power „ „ —the " Universal.”
- The Watson Greenough „ „
- The Watson Low-Power ,, „
- THE WATSON WENHAM BINOCULAR MICROSCOPES
- This well-known pattern has had great popularity with the amateur worker.
- One instead of paired Objectives is used, and a prism reflects the image into the second tube, while the direct rays pass up the main tube.
- The Wenham System gives excellent stereoscopic effects, but its practical use is limited to Objectives not higher than 1 in. (12 mm.). Provision is made for sliding the prism out of the axis so that the monocular body only can be used for higher-power work.
- When a Microscope is to be used for a number of purposes, it is advantageous to have two bodies fitted to the one Microscope Stand, one having a Wenham binocular body, and the other an ordinary monocular tube. Two such bodies can be supplied to interchange in the same fittings.
- The Wenham Binocular Microscope is highly appreciated for the study of insects, pond life, foraminifera and objects that have several planes. For prices, see page 106.

- THE UNIVERSAL BINOCULAR BODY
- It is well known that, however good the image of an object may be, viewed with either eye singly, it is inferior to the image seen with both eyes.
- Binocular vision with the Microscope is no less striking. The object is seen in a manner that has never been possible monocularly. It is natural to use the two eyes simultaneously, and the comfort of microscopical work in such circumstances is very pronounced.
- Disadvantages that have been associated with former attempts to make a high-power Binocular Microscope do not exist in the Universal, as the following outstanding qualities will show.
- THE UNIVERSAL BINOCULAR BODY
- It can be used with the lowest power up to the highest power Oil Immersion Objectives.
- It performs equally well with either.
- There is no diminution in resolving power of definition, the full aperture of the Objective being utilised in each body.
- A pronounced stereoscopic effect is produced.
- Ocular fatigue is obviated.
- The design is so sturdy that no part is likely to become deranged.
- It is the ideal form of Binocular Microscope, and the best.
- No special Eyepieces are required.
- Maximum efficiency with maximum comfort is secured.
- CONSTRUCTION. The Universal Body is intended primarily to be an interchangeable unit, which can be immediately attached to a slide on the coarse adjustment fittings of the Microscope to replace an existing Monocular body, and vice versa. The Nosepiece and Objectives, being mounted separately, remain in position during the exchange; the Object under examination therefore is undisturbed. It can be fitted to any Microscope described in our Catalogue, excepting the “ Kima ” model. It is also supplied in a complete microscope, with the binocular body only.
- The method of interchanging monocular and binocular bodies is by the provision of a separate receiving slide, on which either of the bodies can be immediately fitted and clamped.
- The inter-ocular adjustment is by means of a horizontal spiral screw, a divided scale being provided to show the exact measurements. The milled head of the screw is seen projecting from the body and leaves the space between the Eyepieces free. An adjustment is fitted to the right-hand Eyepiece for difference of vision, enabling those with unequal sight to obtain the best possible focus for each eye.
- The prisms are of finest optical glass, of guaranteed durability.
- Recommendations. The “Service,” “Bactil” and “Patna” Microscopes will be found particularly appropriate for use with the Universal body, or interchangeable bodies. The latter are particularly recommended for laboratory work.
- The Universal Binocular Body cannot usually be adapted to existing Microscopes. It should be specified when ordering a new instrument or, if specified at the time of ordering, provision can be made by the addition of the extra slide fitting for the binocular interchangeable body to be purchased at any later date. For all existing Microscopes the Universal High-Power System mounted as an Eyepiece to fit into the body tube in place of the ordinary Eyepiece, is supplied.

- INCLINING UNIT
- The increasing use of tissue culture technique, the examination of colloids, of materials mounted in serum, and other preparations of a similar nature, necessitates the use of the micro-scope in a vertical position. The fatigue consequent upon the use of the instrument in this manner has led to a demand for apparatus to relieve the worker. Many users to-day have grown accustomed to and prefer the High-Power Binocular Microscope, and because of this the Inclining Unit, as illustrated, has been developed. Thus, the instrument may either be used with the monocular body or the high-power binocular body in the conventional position, or if it is essential that the microscope be used in the upright position so that the stage remains horizontal, the Inclining Unit can be inserted and the microscope used with either the monocular or the high-power binocular body It is of course only possible to add this to an instrument provided with the intermediate slide for the interchangeable bo lies.

- TUBE LENGTH
- CORRECTOR
- Computed by SIR HERBERT JACKSON, F.R.S.
- The high standard of correction of modern Microscope Objectives entails a great sensitiveness to accurate Tube Length setting. It is not sufficient to use standardized cover glasses, as the actual depths of the mountant between the specimen under examination and the cover glass may effectively increase cover glass thickness. High-Power Binocular bodies, although fitted with correcting lenses, have no further provision for Tube Length adjustment. Sir Herbert Jackson, Director of the British Research Association, has evolved a piece of apparatus which may be mounted as part of the microscope body, or between the nosepiece and body, whereby Tube Length correction can be carried out simply with all Objectives. Watson’s have always objected to the use of the correction collar, owing to the difficulty in incorporating it in objectives, but as the optical components of this adjunct consist of a concave lens system, sensitivity to accurate centring is not so great and the apparatus enables the most sensitive of apochromatic objectives to perform at its best.

- GREENOUGH BINOCULAR MICROSCOPE
- By reason of its wide field of view, long working distance, erect image and true stereoscopic effect, the Greenough type of binocular microscope has found increasing favour among all microscopists there is in fact no science in which the microscope is used where additional assistance in the elucidation of problems can not be obtained by the employment of this model. The increasing demand for the Watson Greenough Binocular Microscope and a study of the needs of the workers in every field, has led to a complete reconsideration of our patterns and the introduction of a series which it is hoped will meet every requirement.
- GREENOUGH
- BINOCULAR MICROSCOPE
- Pattern 3 (Illustrated on page 108)
- As will be seen from the illustration the base consists of an extra large flat horseshoe foot rising from which is a stout solid metal pillar. Upon this pillar is supported a stage, cast integrally with a stout metal sleeve which fits over the pillar rising from the base (Fig. 2). The stage measures 5% in. x 4 in. and consists of a polished glass plate, and etched on the lower surface to disperse the light evenly, mounted in a metal frame. The frame incorporates slots to carry hand and arm rests which are swept backwards giving
- rest in a natural position to the arms and wrists during a long dissection or series of dissections. The stage itself is drilled with a series of holes to accommodate either the stage springs of conventional design as shown with Microscope Pattern 4 Incl. or the new type figured on this instrument. The stage springs can be accommodated near the pillar, at the edges of the stage or at the front, according to the specimen under examination. It will be noted that the new design is such that petri dishes, pieces of rock, etc. may be firmly held without strain by sliding the spring itself up and down the stem while the forked ends ensure a spaced grip of unusual strength during a dissection.
- The binocular body itself is of the conventional type but new eyepieces of the large field type, having diameter greater than the standard R.M.S. size and with relatively long eyepoints have been fitted. The field is thus increased and greater comfort in working secured.
- Rackwork coarse adjustment by rack and pinion is provided but of such range that objects having a thickness up to 2 inches may be placed upon the stage and examined with ample latitude in the coarse focussing.
- Differences in vision between the two eyes are provided for by fitting to each pair of Eyepieces an individual focussing motion on one Eyepiece.
- Many occasions arise when it is desired to, make an examination of an object in situ, some fungus on a tree bark, a large metal casting, etc. For this

- purpose the whole body and stage are removable (see illustration p. 112). The stage then serves as a foot and the specimen may be slid over and across the stage or the glass plate can be removed and the frame used not only as a foot but also to confine and where possible flatten the specimen.
- For certain examinations and dissections the Long Arm Stand, p. 114, is essential and Greenough Binocular Microscopes, patterns 3 and 4, as well as the Low Power Binocular are fitted as standard with an additional slide permitting the removal of the body and coarse adjustment for mounting upon such a stand or other apparatus.
- Low power dark ground illumination is frequently of the greatest assistance when used in conjunction with these instruments and for this purpose we supply a metal stage, as an extra, to interchange with the glass stage. This metal stage has mounted upon its under surface a spiral focussing screw or plain tube at choice to carry appropriate condensers. For prices see page 112.
- GREENOUGH BINOCULAR MICROSCOPE
- Pattern 4 Inclined
- For much, if not all, routine work the Entomologist now uses the Greenough Binocular and the fatigue associated with working for long hours over a vertical microscope is obviated by the use of this new model. A great deal of the work also necessitates the use of top light, with the attendant disadvantages of variable intensity and direction if daylight be used or of an illuminant and lamp condenser external to the microscope.
- These difficulties have been met in Watson’s Pattern 4 Greenough Microscope. The Eyepieces are inclined to a convenient angle, in the body is mounted an electric lamp with plug on the right hand side of the unit. This lamp is provided with a condensing system and inclined at such an angle that the illuminated area is in the same plane as the focus of the Objective.
- Users of the Greenough Microscope seem to use principally two pairs of Objectives at a time, very rarely are all five available forms employed simultaneously. Watson’s have incorporated in the Pattern 4 Greenough Binocular Microscope, in addition to the electric illumination, a revolving double nosepiece. This nosepiece is so arranged that any two pairs of objectives can be selected as required and mounted in the slides provided and to ensure ease in working all Greenough Objectives are parfocalled.
- From the foregoing it will be seen that these two new models constitute a real advance in design, and owing to the high degree of standardisation achieved it is only necessary to purchase one stand and to this all the three bodies can be fitted interchangeably.

- WATSON’S LOW-POWER BINOCULAR DISSECTING MICROSCOPE
- Embodies new features guaranteeing a robustness and durability which renders this instrument ideal for dissections and for class demonstration purposes. All occupied in teaching will recognise the assistance accruing from showing—in addition to thin sections—thick sections the structure of which, i.e. co-relationship of cells, capillaries, etc., may be seen and grasped in a manner impossible when the specimens are prepared conventionally.
- For demonstration purposes something more robust than the ordinary Greenough pattern is essential. The Microscope has been designed to stand up to laboratory treatment in the hands of students.
- The prism system is now incorporated in one box and interpupillary adjustment effected by means of a rack and pinion. As with high-power binocular microscopes, differences in sight between the two eyes are corrected by the milled collar on the right eyepiece.
- The foot is of large dimensions to ensure absolute stability, and provided with a wide section pillar, flat on one side. The complete binocular body slides up and down on this pillar, and in addition rackwork focussing is provided. By the removal of the glass plate mounted on the foot objects at table level or even below it may be examined and by sliding the complete fitting up the pillar objects up to 6 in. in thickness may be focussed with ease.
- Two pairs of Objectives are provided and these are mounted on a double nosepiece so arranged that the pair of Objectives not in use is at the back towards the limb and thus protected.
- The Eyepieces are of Ramsden type, X8, X12, and the working distance with either pair of Objectives is 34 in.
- Objectives and Eyepieces are parfocal.

- BINOCULAR DISSECTING MICROSCOPE ACCESSORY FITTING
- Long Arm Stand, for either Greenough or Low-Power Binocular Bodies
- W. WATSON & SONS, LTP, LONDON.
- The examination of large specimens in dishes or in museum jars, the dissection of coarse tissue, the examination of barks, and similar large specimens which are difficult to handle, is facilitated if the whole microscope can be moved backwards and forwards over the specimen instead of a bulky specimen being moved backwards and forwards under the microscope. A special Long Arm Stand has been constructed for this purpose.
- The pillar supporting the arm, as will be seen by reference to the illustration, is of stout build and is mounted towards one end of a heavy metal base. Thus, specimens in dishes may, if desired, be placed on the base which then forms a rigid stage ; or, if the specimen is to be examined in situ the whole arm may be rotated through 180°, and then projected over the material itself. The various Binocular bodies, complete with the rackwork coarse adjustment, as shown on page 112, can be detached from the stand and fitted into the dovetailed slide on the Long Arm Stand which is provided for the purpose. Adjustment vertically, in addition to the ordinary adjustment to the body by rack and pinion, is secured by sliding the transverse arm up and down on the pillar, and a separate clamping collar is fitted. A horizontal movement of 15 in. is given by rack and pinion, while a counterpoise fitted at the end of the arm overcomes the strain on the horizontal motion sometimes associated with this type of mounting. The body may be rotated through 180° on its own axis, or inclined through an angle of 90°, so that specimens mounted in a vertical position can be readily examined.

- The Low-Power Dissecting Microscope is constructed primarily for the dissection of opaque objects, but it is sometimes necessary to be able to make use of transmitted light. This is particularly so where the new technique in demonstrating histological structure by means of thick sections approximately 40u is employed. Binocular examination of such specimens permits the observer to follow the course of nerve fibrils, and capillaries, the position of muscles and of connective tissues, in a manner which conveys a true sense of their relationship to the surrounding tissues, in a way which is impossible when the ordinary thin sections are displayed for examination with the monocular microscope.
- Therefore so that transmitted light can be used, a simple form of stage has been constructed. This stage is made in such a way that it can be slid into the dovetails provided for the glass stage ordinarily supplied with the microscope. The glass stage is pulled out, and the stage for transmitted light is put in its place. The stage is fitted with hand rests, as shown in the illustration. It is heavily constructed, thus rendering it very suitable for students’ use. Dissection can be carried out on the glass of the stage itself, and then washed clean. This stage, in conjunction with the Low Power Binocular Microscope described on the preceding page, forms a useful adjunct to laboratory equipment.

- UNIVERSAL DISSECTING MICROSCOPE
- As supplied to the “ Discovery ” Expedition.
- W.WATSON
- This instrument is made with jointed arm, to receive all the aplanatic magnifiers mounted for dissection, listed on page 230. The large horseshoe foot and pillar are one casting and carry a large stage, provided with a bevelled glass plate, below which is mounted a metal plate background.
- A plane mirror and opal glass disc are provided in the mirror box, which is mounted independently of the pillar.
- Focussing is by means of a rack and pinion adjustment to the lens-carrier arm.
- Strong metal hand rests, removable at will, are provided.
- It will be noticed that the arm carrying the dissecting lens is doubly jointed, so as to allow the comfortable examination of an object covering the whole area of the stage.
- N.B.—The arm carrying the dissecting lens has been made specially stout to permit the use of the Porro Prism erector 2205, page 202. This gives an erect image, it can be used with Standard Eyepieces and Objectives. Thus with a 3 inch (16 mm.) Objective and No. 3 Eyepiece, a magnification of about 80 diameters is available and a free working distance of 3 inch—a working distance similar to that of the ordinary X20 dissecting magnifier.

- DISSECTION APPARATUS
- CHAMBERS’ MICROMANIPULATOR
- . W.WATSON !.SONSIT" LONDON
- The isolation of a single bacterium for the cultivation of a pure strain.
- U
- -a
- 3
- CD -
- The Chambers’ Micromanipulator was designed by Professor Robert Chambers, of the Cornell University Medical School, New York.
- This apparatus enables the operator to manipulate, dissect, isolate or treat with reagents the most minute microscopic objects with the aid of the highest powers, including oil immersion objectives. By its aid may be performed such operations as—
- The dissection of the structure of a cell or of its nucleus.
- The treatment with reagents of a single cell in a tissue living in vitro.
- The success of the apparatus is due to the avoidance of bearings. The needle is carried by a mechanism consisting of stout lever-bars (p, o) connected by stiff spring steel plates (w). These bars are operated by screws with milled heads (h, i, j) below the level of the stage. The movements of the needle-point are in arcs which, under the microscope, appear straight. The extent of the movement is about 3 mm. The needle is set by means of clamps (b, c) and adjusting screw (f).
- The illustration shows an instrument for the left hand with clamp (n, n) to attach it to a square plain stage such as is fitted to the “ Service ” microscope.
- A similar instrument, but reversed in arrangement, is made for the right hand, so that two needles or a needle and a capillary pipette may be employed simultaneously. When attached, the two instruments are quite clear of the illuminating accessories or other parts of the microscope.
- The right-hand instrument is also supplied with a rigid pillar rising from a large metal base upon which the microscope is clamped (B 4061). For bacteriological use a single instrument will usually suffice, but for work on cells in tissue two instruments are indispensable. The operation of the two instruments simultaneously is effected without any extra difficulty, and the technique is readily acquired owing to the simple and direct action.
- Chambers’ Micromanipulator has been commended by those who have used it as an instrument with which the most delicate dissections may be performed with considerable facility.

- For Visual Purposes
- The fuller appreciation of the value of condenser technique and illumination referred to in Part I. of this catalogue has led to a revival of interest in the many forms of lamps and lamp mountings now available. For some years past, Watsons have endeavoured to meet the requirements of microscopists and to build lamps to suit their individual needs. From the experience so acquired, a fresh series of lamp mountings has been standardised which it is excepted will meet the wishes of all workers. Watsons are always ready to build special housings to meet the convenience of their clients.

- Etc., Etc.
- Mercury Vapour Lamp with fused quartz tube, which provides an absolutely steady monochromatic light of high intrinsic brilliancy for general microscopical observations, photomicrography, and visual work of all kinds.
- Mr. Barnard has for years employed this type of lamp for his most exacting researches and dark ground illumination. When mounted upon a board with fixed prism the ideal outfit for rapid diagnosis by dark ground illumination is available.
- Its intrinsic intensity and monochromatic light makes it ideal for the Photomicrographer who can utilise his screens under theoretically perfect conditions.
- The M.V. Lamp also provides a very rich source of Ultra-Violet radiation for research work in the invisible region of the Spectrum.
- Its salient features are :—
- 1. The fused quartz burner is not exhausted but is at all times freely vented to the atmosphere.
- 2. No mechanical devices are required for starting the arc.
- 3. When the lamp is not in operation, the quartz burner tube is completely filled with mercury, and may be transported from place to place without any risk of damage to the burner through hammer action of the mercury contents.
- 4. The life of the lamp is practically unlimited. The burner can be lowered, raised or rotated on a vertical rod, fixed to a heavy tripod base. It can also be tilted. The metal housing carries a condenser tube and iris diaphragm in the front. A small silvered mirror fitted above an aperture in the roof of the housing enables both vertical and horizontal beams to be employed.
- The K.B.B. Lamp may be operated off any current supply, provided a series resistance is used to suit the existing voltage.

- CONDENSERS—VERTICAL ILLUMINATORS
- 219
- VERTICAL ILLUMINATORS
- By means of these, opaque objects adherent to the cover-glass, uncovered, in water or other media, provided the objective is immersed therein, may be examined with the highest powers. It is essential for the microscopical examination of metal surfaces, or any opaque material when truly axial light is required to yield an image free from diffraction and where the resolving power of the objective must be developed.
- The Vertical Illuminator is attached to the lower end of the Microscope body and receives the objective. A concentrated beam of light is directed from the illuminant by means of a condenser, through an aperture in the side of the Illuminator, and falls upon a reflector inside. In one form this reflector consists of a disc of thin glass and in the other of a prism. By means of the reflector the light is thrown downwards through the objective to the specimen, thus illuminating it, the objective acting as its own condenser. The lamp condenser must be so arranged to provide a beam of light as from a light source 10 in. distant to yield the best results. The specimen is then viewed through the eyepiece and objective in the ordinary way. Some form of diaphragm, iris or disc, is advantageous to control the diameter of the entrant beam.
- Note.—Some workers are more successful with the prism Vertical Illuminator than with the cover-glass disc pattern, and vice versa. It will, however, be generally found that both kinds have their distinctive advantages. For a complete equipment, therefore, both are desirable.

- Three outstanding disabilities have to be overcome by all users of Vertical illumination or illumination by reflected light :—Glare—accurate centration and focussing of the light source— need for complete rearrangement of the illuminating train if coarse or fine adjustments of the microscope are used.
- These problems were satisfactorily solved for the first time by the introduction of the Watson-Conrady Vertical Illuminator which is not only the original of these vertical illuminator units but the best, and is in use throughout the world. It offers facilities to be found in combination in no other self-contained unit.
- Incorporating the lamp, optical system, reflector and iris diaphragms it is possible :—•
- To bring the illumination under the same complete control which is obtained with transparent objects and the best substage apparatus and to obtain the maximum illumination from a small source of light.
- To simplify and render certain the correct placing of the illuminant, whether it be supplied as a fixed portion of the illuminator or separate.
- For general purposes a small 3-5 volt, 6 volt or 12 volt electric lamp may be fixed in a suitable position at the end of the condenser system, and when work is to be done, it is only necessary to switch on the current from the battery or main current supply (if a resistance is employed) and a satisfactory result is at once obtained. With this illumination can be obtained not only sufficient for visual but also for photographic purposes or can be used in conjunction with arc or other lamp if preferred. Metallurgical work to be done on an ordinary Microscope, for—when once attached to the body tube—when the body is focussed, the whole of the Vertical Illuminator and its Lamp is carried with it.
- The apparatus is used in the following manner :—
- The illuminator is attached to the nosepiece of the microscope, the objective is screwed into it and approximately focussed on the polished metal object. The light is switched on, and the illumination is then regulated by the inner Iris Diaphragm so as to cover the extent of the object actually under observation. This eliminates a large amount of stray light, and consequent gain in the contrast in the image is obtained. The Iris Diaphragm nearest the illuminant is then used in precisely the same manner as that of the ordinary substage condenser, and by its means the cone of illumination is adjusted to give the best effect.
- If an independent illuminant is used, it should be set about 14 inches from the outer end of the tube. Any small source of light can be used, such as the edge of an oil lamp flame or small incandescent lamp, or if a very brilliant illumination is required for projection, etc., a small arc lamp should be used, such as our " Argus ” model, or a ribbon filament lamp suitably mounted.

- Metallurgists usually find in their microscopical work that for some purposes they need a Prism reflector, and for other purposes a Disc reflector pattern is better. To obviate the necessity of having two separate pieces of apparatus we have devised a holder into which the Prism Carrier " A ” or the Glass Reflector “ B ” can be set, as required. When in position, rotation within necessary limits can be effected, and adjustments for centrality can be made by means of a screw acting on a wedge. Mounted on the side of the apparatus is an Iris Diaphragm “ C,” and a small Condenser lens " D.” Either of these can be removed when desired. This combination arrangement will be found highly convenient, saving time, expense and superfluous fittings ... 3 10 0
- SUBSTAGE MACROGRAPH
- Designed originally by Prof. Tulloch as a part of the microscope substage for typing bacterial colonies by means of the surface reflections, it has been mounted to permit its universal use for the illumination of specimens on the stage or at table level.
- The small electric bulbs ensure shadowless illumination of the specimen and sufficient brilliancy for photography with either low power microscope objectives and eyepieces or photo micrographic lenses.
- This accessory fills the long acknowledged need for a method of bridging the gap between the vertical and other illuminations and prism top lighting systems for photography.
- If used in combination with a Greenough or Substage lamp much valuable detail, both internal and external, can be successfully and easily recorded

- STAINLESS STEEL MIRRORS for MICROSCOPES
- The necessity for a Mirror giving one reflection only of the lamp flame has long been recognised, and in special cases parallel worked mirrors have been supplied, as well as, in some cases, mirrors with surface silvering. These, however, have had obvious disadvantages. Stainless Steel is well known in connection with cutlery ; it is non-corrosive, takes a very high polish and can be worked perfectly plane.
- After extended experiments, we have produced Stainless Steel Mirrors with a perfectly flat su rface and suited in every way for microscopical work.

- An important difficulty connected with the stainless steel mirror is that of % reflection. There is a maximum reflective power after 3-4 months use of about 60% and this remains reasonably constant for considerable periods.
- Where the maximum brilliance is essential a 45° Prism will be found the ideal solution. Not only is there a single reflection but little light is lost by absorption and if correctly mounted upon the mirror stand the beam must be transmitted along the optic axis of the instrument.

- LIGHT-FILTERS
- Among the advantages obtained by the use of light-filters in photomicrography may be mentioned the following : Contrast, adaptation to plate-sensitivity, resolving power, maximum distinctness with non-apochromatic objectives.
- Light-filters may consist of coloured glass plates, coloured liquids in glass troughs, coloured gelatine films, or any of these in combination. When consisting of coloured glass or of coloured gelatine film (mounted or plain) they are usually in squares 2x2 in., or in circles to fit the substage mount.
- CHANCE-WATSON LIGHT-FILTERS
- The use of coloured glass light-filters is essential for those who use radiants or high intensity. They are utilised to diminish brilliancy, reduce heat, accentuate structure of stained specimens. Coloured glasses are also more permanent in tint than stained gelatine. The present series of light filters has been carefully selected for colour by spectrophotometric methods. The glass is coloured evenly throughout, and is known as " pot metal” to distinguish it from the so-called “flashed” glass. This excellent series of coloured glasses has been made by the eminent and old-established firm of Chance Brothers & Co. Ltd. The selected material is cut, polished and edged in our own works.
- The Chance-Watson glass light-filters are as follows : —
- 2 Red
- 3 Deep orange
- 4 Orange
- 5 Green
- 6 Blue-green
- 7 Blue
- 8 Purple
- 9 Daylight
- 10 Neutral
- 11 Yellow
- In ordering, the colour should be mentioned as well as the number.

- WATSON-ABBE CAMERA LUCIDA
- The Abbe drawing apparatus is probably known better than any other. The user observes through the microscope in the usual way except for the interposition of a reflecting device above the eyepiece. By means of this, and a mirror held above the drawing paper, the drawing and object are seen simultaneously and can be made apparently coincident by focussing. Thus a pencil point on the paper may be made to trace the outlines of the object without any special skill in drawing.
- The original Abbe apparatus was somewhat troublesome to adjust and difficult to use with any but eyepieces of low power. The Watson-Abbe Camera Lucida is entirely free from such objections, which it avoids by the use of a special reflecting prism.
- The apparatus may be kept on the microscope if desired, the reflecting prism being swung aside for ordinary observation or the changing of eyepieces.
- Success in using this apparatus depends upon the relative brightness of microscope image and drawing This is best adjusted by subduing the illuminating rays by means of neutral-tinted glasses and not by shades camera lucida.

- PROJECTION AND DRAWING PRISM
- The most accurate method of drawing a microscopic object is to project its image upon paper and to trace its outlines direct. This is done by placing the microscope with its axis horizontal and attaching the Watson Projecting Drawing Prism over the eyepiece. The image is reflected downwards to a sheet of paper on the bench. A fairly intense illuminant is advantageous and the image should be shielded from other lights. This method can also be used for projection over short distances in teaching.

- Acid Proof Cement
- For Colour Filter Media, Cooling Troughs, Spectroscopic Purposes, Chemical Reagents, Pond Life, Etc.
- Workers constantly experience difficulty owing to the fact that, with the exception of the Kingsford type of trough, few cemented troughs remain water-tight for long, and none remain water-tight under all conditions. These new vitrified troughs remain water-tight and whether subjected to the action of heat, powerful acids or any other dissolving agent, these troughs remain intact. This is effected by employing a fusible glass cement and the sides are cemented in the furnace. The plates of glass forming the sides are optically polished, thus the troughs can be used for storing and examining animalcule, pond life, etc, As light-filters they are unequalled as the sides are parallel, so there is no inequality in the quantity of light filtering medium, and owing to the polished sides no seeds or other impurities interfere with the beam from the light source.
- The method of manufacture causes these troughs to be more expensive than the ordinary cemented type, but if the length of their life is considered they are very cheap.
- Three sizes are kept permanently in stock, and can be supplied in quantities.

- This trough is designed especially for watching the development of Pond Life, and for use as a small Aquarium. It is exceptionally advantageous for light-filter media. The construction is very simple, consisting essentially of an outer circle of brass, drawn together at the top by means of a screw or screws. The brass circle is lined with indiarubber, and with blocks of indiarubber so placed as to keep the glass faces, which are circular, in position. These glass discs are gripped by the indiarubber when the tension on the outer metal band is increased by the tightening of the screws. It is absolutely water-tight.
- The distinct advantages over all other troughs are that :—
- By merely releasing the screws, all parts can be taken to pieces and cleaned.
- Any broken part can be at once replaced.

- WATSON’S "SPEERA" BINOCULAR MAGNIFIER
- MOUNTED in Adjustable Spectacle Frames.
- “ Speera ” Binocular Magnifiers, mounted as spectacles, have been found exceptionally valuable in numerous and unexpected ways, because when in use, both hands are free to manipulate the object. The range of usefulness is wide, embracing all work that is of a minute or delicate character, such as the examination and dissection of natural history subjects, operations on structures such as the eye, fine machine work, watch repairing, etching, engraving, cinema film exami-
- nations, etc.
- They are more convenient and comfortable than other magnifiers because :—
- I. The lenses are achromatic, and give a sharp flat field.
- 2. They give a stereoscopic effect.
- 3. They can be fitted to the face with accuracy and facility.
- 4. The skeleton nature of the frame enables the wearer to locate ordinary objects without removing the magnifiers.
- 5. No fatigue in use as prisms to aid convergence are incorporated.
- “ Speera ” Binocular Magnifiers are made in three powers, the focal lengths being 5 in., 7 in., and 10 in., giving magnifications of 3-5, 2-5, and 1-75 diameters, respectively.

- THE CATHCART MICROTOME
- This popular form of microtome is fitted for Ether Freezing or Embedding. For freezing tissues it is arranged as shown above; to embed tissues the tubes, bottle and the freezing tube are drawn out, the latter being replaced by another tube, with clamp. The substance to be cut (embedded in paraffin or other medium) is then inserted, and the clamp screwed up. This instrument is thoroughly well finished, and the adjusting screw milled head is made specially large to permit a fine movement.

- THE CATHCART-DARLASTON (Registered)
- Realising the demand for a low-priced microtome, which, while preserving the simplicity and excellence of the Cathcart pattern, would yet enable the worker to cut sections of a definite thickness, we carried out a suggestion made by Mr. Darlaston, and produced an elaboration of the ordinary Cathcart microtome which will, we believe, be much appreciated by careful workers. The illustration shows the general principle, which is briefly as follows :—The forks A are attached to the knife carriage, and in drawing the latter back one of the forks engages with a lever attached to the milled head, and thus raises the material a distance of from 1/250 to 1/5000 of an inch, according to the position in which the forks are placed ; thumb-screws permit the distance between the two being varied at will. The forward traverse of the carriage causes the second fork to engage, which replaces the lever in its original position ready for the return thrust. The entire system is automatic, and work as accurate as that of a complicated and expensive instrument is possible. The automatic motion may be dispensed with at pleasure, and the milled head rotated by the hand as usual.

- MICROTOMES
- THE CAMBRIDGE ROCKING MICROTOME
- The Cambridge Rocking Microtome is most popular of all on account of its striking simplicity of construction and efficiency in action. Its accuracy and reliability in working are due to the geometrical design, which avoids the use of slides and bearings which might wear or become loose.
- The action of the Cambridge Rocking Microtome may be described as follows :—The material to be sectioned is carried downwards across the knife, which is held with its edge upwards, by means of a rocking movement. The rocking arm to which the material is clamped turns on knife-edge bearings, thus ensuring an exact and smooth movement. The advance of the material towards the knife is effected by the movement of another rocking arm carrying the bearings already mentioned.
- The handle which actuates the rapid movement of the material also acts by means of ratchet and pawl on a screw movement controlling the slow advance towards the knife. The actual advance of the specimen for each section is controlled by a stop which can be set for any desired section-thickness by means of a scale having 12 divisions, each division being equivalent to a thickness of 2u.
- The object-holder will carry either the usual paraffin block or the wood block. An orientating object holder is also supplied, to enable the object to be cut in any desired direction.

- CAMBRIDGE FLAT CUTTING MICROTOME
- 4
- t. on
- 8
- /% -meeae
- The instrument illustrated has been designed for cutting perfectly flat sections from specimens embedded in paraffin wax or when the dry celloidin method of mounting is employed. It is capable of cutting sections 3 cm, square, and the thickness of the cut can be varied from 0 to 20 microns. The instrument can be used for ribboning with certainty and ease. Any possible wear of the essential mechanism is automatically compensated and the instrument will, therefore, remain in perfect adjustment over long periods. Extreme rigidity characterises the entire design.
- The mechanism is similar to that of the well-known rocker microtome in which the embedded object is fed forward automatically by rotation of a micrometer screw which is effected by the action of a pawl upon a milled disc rigidly fixed to the base of the screw. The pawl is operated by a reciprocating handle. In this new microtome rotation of the micrometer screw raises one end of a horizontal arm pivoted on knife edges, which in turn feeds the specimen forward by an amount proportional to the rotation of the screw, and may be varied by adjusting the amount during which the pawl is in contact with the milled disc by moving an index pointer over a scale divided in microns. The entire system is free from back-lash and the knife holder is of very rigid design. Two types of knife are made, one being hollow ground and the other having almost straight sides. Both are supplied with removable backs for sharpening, giving a cutting angle of 17 degrees for one knife and 21 degrees for the other knife. Special backs can be supplied with which to increase this angle to 24 degrees for the cutting of very hard specimens.
- A simple object holder is supplied with the instrument but three types of holder can be supplied as follows :—
- (1) A plain holder on which paraffin wax blocks are directly cemented.
- (2) A vice holder for a wood block to which the embedded specimen is fixed.
- (3) An orientating holder of very rigid construction.

- PREPARED OBJECTS FOR THE MICROSCOPE
- So typical as to be almost diagrammatic, perfect examples also of microtomy, staining and mounting.
- For more than fifty years we have maintained the premier position in the scientific world for the supply of highest class Microscopic Objects, and they are in universal use for Biological, Medical and Industrial study, book illustrations and other purposes, including the varied interests of the amateur.
- No worker who values his Microscope as an aid to Natural Science should fail to provide himself with our Illustrated Classified List of Microscopic Objects (Part 3), which forms a separate publication. The stock of slides numbers over 40,000. The slides are prepared by experts, each of mature experience in his speciality. The objects are, therefore, fitted to be used in the most critical manner. As standard specimens for demonstrations and students they are unsurpassed.
- The Microscope is constantly extending its field of usefulness and new branches of research have consequently to be provided for ; especially is this the case in numerous manufacturing processes ; new specimens are therefore continually being added to our cabinets to assist workers, and correspondence is always invited.
- The following subjects are fully dealt with :—Botany, Comparative Anatomy, Diatomaceae and Foraminifera, Entomology, Geology, Palseontology, Histology, Pathology, Parasitology, Bacteriology, Marine and Fresh Water Life, Polariscopic Specimens, Public Health Series, Textiles, Tropical Diseases, Zoology, etc.
- Amateurs are strongly recommended to investigate the particular sections which appeal to them. It is always possible to obtain for selection a large number of striking preparations.
- It is our endeavour to maintain our stock in such a condition of completeness that we may be in a position to despatch any specimen that is quoted in our catalogue immediately ; but it sometimes happens that a temporary cessation in the supply of material occurs, or the time of the year may not be suitable for obtaining gatherings and, in consequence, delays may be experienced. We suggest, therefore, that when an order is given, extra alternative specimens may be named, to replace any that might be temporarily out of stock.
- Special attention is drawn to the staining methods, by means of which all the tissues are differentiated, thereby aiding demonstrators very considerably.
- Our exceptional facilities enables us to prepare objects for the Microscope from customers’ materials to the greatest advantage. This service is proving of daily help to industrial firms. Special care is displayed in such work.
- Every slide is examined before being placed in stock, and special care is taken in selecting specimens when forwarding ; satisfaction to customers is assured by this means. We claim for our Objects a quality superior to the usual commercial level and it will always be our aim to maintain this.
- We beg that you will take the opportunity of proving the excellence of our specimens by entrusting us with your orders and kind recommendations.
- On the next page are several standard sets, which are typical of the subjects in the general collection.

- Although primarily designed to meet the requirements of jewellers and dealers in precious stones, this instrument does practically all that is necessary for the mineralogist, physicist and chemist. The refractive index of the substance under examination is read off direct on a scale in the telescope and is accurate to two or three units in the third place of decimals ; the range extends from 1-40 to 1-79. To facilitate the measurement of double refracting substances the dense flint hemisphere is made to rotate on a circle divided to every 5°. The hemisphere is surrounded with a light-tight casing provided with a shutter which allows of illumination by either reflected light or light at glancing incidence at will. The large aperture at the side o the casing is for cleaning the hemisphere, which operation should be performed with the greatest care. The stand is adjustable for height.

- Mr. E. M. Nelson’s Micrometer Rule measures objects not larger than 2/10 inch to 1/1000 inch or 25 micra. It therefore will be found useful not only to physicists, engineers, manufacturers, etc., but also to microscopists. The thicknesses of slips, cover glasses, etc., can be read off at sight, without having to turn a screw or use a lever or slide. As the scale is so simple in construction it is necessarily cheaper than the various instruments now employed for the purpose. At the back of the Micrometer scale is an Imperial Standard Wire Gauge, extending from 5 to 33 ; also scales of inches in 3, 1/10, and smaller divisions are ruled on the edges. It measures 54 x 18, and so is quite portable.

- MICRO-PROJECTION IN THE CLASSROOM
- For lecture-demonstrations of microscopic specimens no method is so satisfactory as projection on a screen. Every detail may be pointed to and it is only necessary to do this once for the whole class.
- 90%97005i3 tie. IBS
- The most practical micro-projector yet devised is shown in the illustration. As will be seen, it is a strongly-built microscope focussing by rack and pinion, with heavy cast-iron foot and large horizontal stage with plate-glass surface. Light is provided by a special substage projection lamp consuming 36 watts and working at 12 volts, the current being obtained from a transformer connected by ordinary lamp flex to any A.C. house supply. A condenser is fitted above the lamp to illuminate a large field evenly and brilliantly. The projection lens is a triple achromatic combination giving a brilliant image magnified 80 diameters on a screen at 15 ft. distance. The beam is reflected in a horizontal direction by a large prism which also corrects the transposition which occurs with simple projection on an opaque screen. The horizontal stage is more convenient for mounted objects than a vertical one, and is, of course, the only possible means of exhibiting unmounted objects or objects in fluid and chemicals in suspension or solution.
- This type of micro-projector has been found very useful for demonstrations in pharmacology, in which the structural characteristics of drugs and their reactions may be seen by a class of students, but it has a much wider application in the teaching of biology and chemistry in schools, and may be recommended as the most easily managed apparatus made for that purpose.

- Micro Projector
- Resistance Board
- Apparatus Case
- power dry (8 4 mm.) Objectives over distances
- Suitable for projection with all powers up to and including high power dry (% 4 mm.) Objectives over distances up to 20 ft. For shorter distances oil immersion Objectives may be employed but their use is not recommended owing to the difficulties inseparable from the use of immersion oil.
- The apparatus consists essentially of a triangular bar mounted upon a mahogany board and carrying an arc lamp with clockwork drive and precise, spring loaded centring adjustments. Mounted beyond the lamp is a light baffle shield ; the Watson Conrady Condenser is provided with iris diaphragm and centring screws and its high order of correction ensures efficient utilisation of the light source with freedom from colour fringes. Water cooling trough of ample dimensions serves to protect delicately stained specimens from damage. Another light baffle shield with iris diaphragm is mounted between the cooling trough and microscope substage condenser. The microscope is the Service model fitted with Service mechanical stage and Research substage. The Research substage with its co-axial condensers permits immediate interchange from low to medium or high power projection. The Service mechanical stage gives steady and responsive movement over the whole specimen allowing the best field to be selected with ease. The 34 mm. draw-tube of the Service microscope allows all light from the objective to proceed to the Eyepiece but with freedom from glare or internal reflections. The whole apparatus is covered with asbestos lined mahogany board and surrounded with light excluding curtains having divisions for the lecturer or assistant to insert the specimen.
- In micro projection the steadiness of the source of light is of fundamental importance. The arc lamp supplied with this equipment is manufactured in Watson’s High Barnet Factory and it is used in combination with a specially designed resistance board. The fluctuations of mains current are known to all users of scientific apparatus. This board is fitted with ammeter and voltmeter, and sliding resistance. Fluctuations in current can be read off immediately and the flow of current maintained at the optimum pressure. By these means the crater is held steady for long periods.

- EPIDIASCOPE
- No Epidiascope can claim to have fulfilled all the purposes originally claimed by its sponsors, but it does, by obviating the necessity for the perpetual production of lantern slides, afford considerable assistance to the Lecturer, allowing him to emphasise points by projecting text book illustrations, tables, etc.
- Watsons do not manufacture Epidiascopes but in recent years, in response to enquiries from their many clients, they have from time to time supplied such instruments as seemed to be the best available. Owing to the fact they are not manufacturers of these instruments and have no intention of undertaking such work they are able to give unbiassed advice.

- In their opinion the Aldis Epidiascope is at the moment the most efficient of all the medium-priced Epidiascopes and incorporates many features which are unique.
- The originality of the designer has completely overcome the need for fans to keep the specimen cool and it was found by comparative test that this Epidiascope is the coolest of all within its price range. Any Lecturer will appreciate the freedom from irritation implied by the absence of a fan. The change from Diascopic to Episcopic projection is effected by a gauged connecting rod and the movement through 90° of the lens cap arm effects immediate change over. The movement is positive, controlled by two rods and cannot get out of order.
- The brilliancy of projection is all that can be desired, a system of internal mirrors, mathematically designed and adjusted ensures a shadow-free image, while a 500 w. lamp will be found to give a projected image as brilliant as that attained by many other projectors with a 1000 w. lamp and all its additional heat. By a simple but extremely effective device the illumination between the two forms of projection is reasonably well balanced.
- The Object Table is circular and books or diagrams can be orientated by the operator by watching the projected image on the screen; all fumbling and loss of time is eliminated. Simple movements permit accommodation of books of any thickness while the whole table may swing aside to accommodate large specimens such as skulls, museum jars, terrestial globes, etc.
- At the suggestion of Professor Goodrich of the Zoological Department, Oxford University, an attachment for oblique illumination for the projection of fossils, etc., has been introduced.
- An ingenious diagram changer is available with accommodation for thirty diagrams—sufficient to illustrate a complete lecture. This can be loaded beforehand and each diagram is brought into the field
- by a single movement. S. d.

- WATSON S EYEPIECE CAMERA
- FOR USE WITH THE MICROSCOPE
- #
- 1
- 4
- 8
- Watson’s Eyepiece Camera enables a photographic record of a microscopical observation to be made in the easiest possible manner.
- This camera replaces the microscope eyepiece and is fixed rigidly in the draw-tube of the microscope by a special clamp. The object is viewed through an eyepiece in a side tube and is brought into exact focus by the fine adjustment of the microscope. This action simultaneously focuses an image on the photographic plate. The shutter is adjusted and the plate is exposed. The field on the photographic plate has the same extent as that seen in the eyepiece.
- Made entirely of metal, the lowest portion slides into the draw-tube, and is held by a clamp with three-point contact. Above this is a box containing a prism and shutter, the latter being independently and directly attached to the lower tube and therefore incapable of transmitting vibrations to the upper portion. The prism is a cube of glass with an internal face half silvered by which the rays are partly reflected sideways into the viewing eyepiece but mainly transmitted into the camera. The shutter is adjustable for time, bulb, or instantaneous exposures and is operated by an antinous wire release. A special lens is fitted above the shutter to bring the image to a focus on the photographic plate when the image seen in the eyepiece is in focus. The camera proper is fitted to take a dark slide
- for plates 44 x 34 in. (4-plate) and a hooded ground-glass focusing screen. The complete camera includes: x 6 eyepiece, dark slide, focusing screen and wire release.

- WATCHING EYEPIECE
- The “ Watching ” Eyepiece presents two images of the object, one being viewed through a side-tube and the other image projected on a photographic film, plate, or focusing screen.
- The “ Watching ” Eyepiece was designed originally for cinephotomicrography. In use it is arranged so that the observed image and the projected image of the object are in sharp focus at the same time. Only ten per cent, of the light is diverted to the observer’s eye, the greater intensity required for the projected image not being appreciably reduced thereby, photographically.
- In ordinary photomicrography the “ Watching ” Eyepiece may be used for arranging and focusing the object and also for watching objects in which changes may occur.
- When photographing the life-phases of microscopic organisms the objects may be kept under observation until the appropriate moment for a “ shot ” and observation may
- be continued during the exposure. Code Word No.

- FOR TAKING STEREOPHOTOMICROGRAPHS AT ALL MAGNIFICATIONS

- WATSON, LONDON.
- 34 SCALE.

- designed by
- Dr. John R. Baker
- University Lecturer in Zoology at Oxford
- DESCRI PTION
- The Tilting Stage has been primarily designed to be attached to the built-in mechanical stage of Watson’s“ Edinburgh ‘ H “ Research,” and " Royal ” Microscopes; but the makers will adapt it to suit other built-in stages if possible. It is fastened to the upper plate of the mechanical stage by means of the two lugs at its lower edge and a clamping screw.
- The Tilting Stage is designed to take microscope slides one-half millimetre in thickness and 25 x 25 mm. square. This thickness
- ensures that the object is on the line on which it is rotated. The slide drops into the rebated opening in the frame, and is held in place by springs. The frame slides upon the tilting frame, being moved along it by the screw, and clamped in position. The tilting frame is held parallel with the stage by a spring detent but may be tilted 7 degrees to the left or right by depressing the milled projections. The tilting frame turns on its axis. By means of a special slide engraved with a guiding line the axis of rotation must be made to intersect the optical axis of the microscope.
- CAPABILITIES
- Stereophotomicrographs may be obtained with the aid of the Tilting Stage at any magnification. The appliance may be used as an easy means of securing stereoscopic photographs with the lowest powers, the results being similar to those produced by means of the " Greenough ” Binocular Microscope. The apparatus was developed with a view to its use with moderate and high powers, and is recommended specially for those magnifications with which good stereoscopic pictures have hitherto been unobtainable. The claim that oil-immersion objectives may be used with it to advantage is substantiated by results, but it is necessary, of course, that the objective should have sufficient working distance to allow the required amount of tilt in the specimen. Watson’s Versalic Oil-Immersion Objective is recommended as being suitable in this respect. Homogeneous oil contact both above and below the slide obviates any possible ill effects of the tilt on the image, and both objective and oil-immersion condenser may be used as for critical work. Good images are also obtained with high-power dry objectives and ordinary condensers.
- Owing to the lack of penetration of objectives having large numerical apertures the stereoscopic effect cannot be as pronounced with them as with low powers and to strengthen the effect it may sometimes be considered advisable to use a somewhat smaller cone of illuminating rays than would be used in ordinary observation. With objectives having a focal length of about 12 mm. the stereoscopic effect is very marked and most valuable in its elucidation of structure.
- Stereophotomicrographs are more effective in the case of separate objects having structure at different planes.

- TECHNICAL PHOTOGRAPHY
- Photographic work in academic institutions and industrial undertakings, by reason of its varied nature and the complexity of its problems, has hitherto required a diversity of apparatus, an abundance of space and a high degree of personal skill.
- These considerations have undoubtedly prevented the full exploitation of photography in directions where it might, if more conveniently available, be of great service, as, for instance, in the production of:—
- Copies from books, maps, plans, diagrams and other documents.
- Photographs of specimens, apparatus and machines.
- Photomicrographs of biological, mineral and metal specimens.
- Lantern slides and enlargements upon paper from all the foregoing subjects.
- The apparatus usually required for dealing with such a variety of output is elaborate and expensive, for each type of work has needed its own specific equipment.
- All such equipment may now, however, be replaced by the Sayce-Watson Universal Camera.

- THE CAMERA FOR SCIENTIFIC RECORDS
- Photography is now a normal feature in all scientific and technical research, and there are numberless occasions for the use of a good photographic camera of general utility. Photographs of materials before and after treatment, photographs of apparatus, plant and equipment, copies of plans, diagrams, graphs, tables, charts, book illustrations, these and other records may be made by the use of a single camera of suitable design. The type of camera which is most suitable for general photography and copying is represented most perfectly by Watson’s “ Premier ” Camera. This camera is designed with all the movements which are necessary combined with the most rigid construction. The materials employed are selected with care for durability in all circumstances.
- WATSON’S
- “PREMIER”
- CAMERA
- Specification.—The camera is constructed of well-seasoned mahogany and has the highest degree of strength, durability and rigidity. The front is fixed and braced; the back moves for focussing either by slide or rack and pinion motion. The lens panel provides rise, fall and cross movements and the back body has swing motions in vertical and lateral directions. The double dark slides are made in book form with hinged shutters, and can be provided with flat film sheaths.
- This camera is made in five sizes as follows :—
- 64 x 43 in. (half-plate); 84 x 64 in. (whole-plate); 10 x 8 in. ; 12x10 in.; and 15 x 12 in.
- WATSON’S
- HOLOSTIGMAT
- LENSES
- The Finest Photographic Lenses obtainable
- Watson’s Holostigmat Lenses are double cemented anastigmatic lenses with most perfect corrections for colour, spherical aberration, coma, astigmatism, curvature and distortion. Each half of the system is independently corrected for coma and astigmatism and may be used alone. There are only four glass-to-air surfaces, thus ensuring freedom from false reflections and haze. These lenses have been proved to be more brilliant and consequently more rapid than other lenses of larger aperture.
- Watson’s Holostigmat Lenses have found permanent favour among expert photographers for copying works of art and for wide-angle views, that is to say, for work in which perfect correction for coma, astigmatism and distortion are most valuable.
