The cover glass is placed in the notch between the two screws, and the drum is 

 turned by the milled head at the right till the cover is in contact with the screws. 

 The thickness is then indicated by the knife edge on the drum and may be read off 

 directly in 0.001 of a millimeter or inch. In other columns is given the proper 

 tube-length for various unadjustable objectives (\, -?, J, and T j in.) (Bausch and 

 Lomb Optical Company').

 jaws are opened by means of a lever

 ness in hundredths millimeter in 

 the outer circle and in thousandths 

 inch on the inner circle.
