THE mechanism Of microscope was here de
scribed in relation 10 its measureing power.
The blood Of an OK is about l-42D0 of an incl
in diameter OF sheep. l-sli50 Of All inch; Of
dog. $500 Of an inch; Of eat. l44o0 Of al
inch; OF a rabbit. not more than l-4J10 Of al
inch: of i Maine rabbit. measured last night
1895 of IN inch; Of New Hampshire rabbit
I-4194 Of 81 inch.
Measured lis eorpuseles and found ayerag'
diameter Of c0Fpuscle Of blood found on coat o
smith 1898.
The largest corpusele was found on coat ant
wac y 10 OF an inch in diameter, and eoul,
not have been the eorpusele OF any anima
except mammalian On cap average
diameter 1875. on cloud average diameter
I-326S. on knife. average diameter 1-3240. A
4iroD Of human blood taken from the finger
will furnish variations Of o0rpuscies full
equal 70 the variations above given.
The above results correspond to what ha
heen nv experiences in the measurements 0
corpuscles Of known human blood heretofore.
The corpuscles Of human blood are large
than those of other mammalian with few
exceptions, such as the whale elephant, an,
