THE SCIENTIFIC MONTHLY-ADVERTISEMENTS ix

The DDE A NeTw Research Microscope

Bausch & Lomb Optical Company pre- sents an innovation in microscope design -a Binocular-Monocular-Microscope.

When exhibited for the first time at the Marine Biological Laboratory at Woods Hole, Mass,, many favorable com- ments were made on this new design which is a de*- cided departure from that of previous microscopes.

DDE is characterized by the minimum of effort and the maximum of comfort for continued observation over long pericods of time.

Dr. L. W. Sharpe of Cor- nell University suggested the design of DDE.

Descriptive literature will soon be available

INTERNATIONAL REviEw oF SCIENTIFIC SYNTHESIS Published every month (each number containing 100 to 1ra0

knowledge Jj pages) Editor: EUGENIO RIGNANO

IS THE ONLY REVIEW the contributors to which are really international. IS THE ONeLY REVIEW that has a really world-wide circulation. IS THE ONLY REVIEW of scientific synthesis and unification that deals with the funda-

mental questions of all sciences: the history of the sciences, mathematics, astroniomy, geology, physics, chemistry, biology, psychology and sociology.

IS THE ONeLY REVIEW therefore which, while immediately interesting students of mathematics, astronomy, astrophysics and physics, by its numerous and important articles and reports relating to these sciences, presents them also the means of knowing, in a summary and synthetic form, the chief problems of all the other branches of knowledge.

IS THE ONLY REVIEW that among its contributors can boast of the most illustrious men of science in the whole world. A list of more than 350 of these is given ii each number.

The articles are published in the language of their author, and every number has a supple- ment containing the French translation of all the articles that are not French. The review is thus completely accessible to those who know only French.

ePerformance The most useful and fascinating

instrument ever produced for the motorist (Direct Reading)

Correctly measures the ability of a motor vehicle to climb hills, get-away ability in traffic, and power to accelerate, as well as to locate causes of lowered performance.

Lowered Performance affects your motoring enjoyment as well as your pocketbook. If the normal pulling power of your car is 190 pounds, and you are now getting only 150 pounds, you are paying 20% more for all of your motoring than is necessary. It pays to check pulling power-but even if you can afford the extravagance of blindfold motoring, why put up with a poor performance, when other owners of the same make of car are getting better results.
