128 ANATOMICAL TECHSOLOOY. § 314. Olaas Stoppered Jars.—These are made to order by any extensive glass manu- factory. The Dorflinger Glass Company, White Mills, Wayne Co., Pa., issue a price list of 51 difl'erent sizes, ranging from 3 x 1 in. to 33 x 7. § 315. Welted Jijrs—(Fig. 33).—With the specimen jars above described, the neck is strengthened by a constriction. This involves one of two alternatives : either the speci- men must be more or less compressed in entering or leaving the jar, or the body of the jar is needlessly large. With some kinds of specimens these are not very serious objections. But with brains and embryos it is desirable that all pres- sure should be avoided, and also that they should be close to the side of the jar. For such specimens the jars should be of uniform diameter throughout, and the requisite thickening at the mouth may be gained by a welt. The size represented In Fig, 33 is adapted to the brain or the heart of the cat. Its inside measures are 4 cm. vride, and 6 cm. to the lower border of the part which is ground for the stopper. A smaller size of the same height, but only 3 cm. in diameter, is adapted for either half of the brain. Both sizes are made to order by Messrs. Whitall, Ta- tum & Co. for $3.50 per dozen. § 316. Compressed Jars.—The ordi- nary circular jar is poorly adapted for the display of flat specimens like frozen sec- tions and some fishes. Messrs. Whitall, Tatum & Co. have molds for two sizes of compressed jars similar to the photog- raphers' "bath." They are 15 cm. high and 81 or 13 cm. wide. The larger cost $13 per dozen, and the smaller $6. The tops are level and ground oflF for thin glass covers, which may be cemented on. The covers cost a small sum in addition to the price of the jars.

Fig. 83.—Welted Vial for the Brain or Heart of the Cat ; slightly reduced ; § 314 § 317. Cleaning Jars.—When large enough, jars should be washed on the inside with a sponge. If they will not admit the hand, the washing may "be done with a swab made by tying a sponge upon the end of a stick, or with the bottle brushes, one of which is shown in Fig. 34. For long jars and large tubes there are bottle brushes with long handles ; or a wire may be attached to the handle of a short brush ; or the ring of the handle may be cut off,
