THE MICROSCOPE. 49 



of microscopic objects. In it he alludes to a punch for cutting wax 

 cells. He does not, however, mention the inventor of this punch. 

 I am glad that I can add to the interest of the article by so doing. 

 The punch was the invention of Prof. C. H. Kain, of the Camden 

 Microscopical Society, l^he idea was worked into shape by a 

 workman now in the employ of J. W. Queen & Co., of Philadelphia. 

 From what I can learn they were first put upon the market by the 

 same firm, and as they were not patented, have been made and 

 sold by all the dealers in microscopical accessories. I write this 

 as I believe in the old saying, "Honor to whom honor is due."
