tabular bone

Anat. ( pl.): Flat bones, as the scapula, the ilium, and the bones forming the roof and sides of the skull. tubular-crystal, subst. A crystal in which the prism is very short. tabular-differences, s . pl . In logarithmic tables of numbers, a column of numbers marked D, consisting of the differences of the logarithms taken in succe ion, each number being the difference between the succe ive logarithms in the same line with it. When the difference is not the same between all the logarithms in the same line, the number which answers most nearly to it, one part taken with another, is inserted. In the common table of logarithms the logarithms of all the numbers from 1 to 10,000 can be found by inspection, but by the aid of the tabular differences the logarithms of numbers between 10,000 and 1,000,000 may be found. Also by the aid of the same ame differences the number corresponding to any logarithm can be found to five or six places. In logarithmic tables of sines, tangents, secants, cosines, cotangents, and cosecants there are three columns of tabular differences on each page. The first of these is placed between the sines and cosecants, the second between the tangents and cotangents, and the third between the secants and cosines. These numbers are the differences between the logarithms on the left hand against which they are placed and the next lower 1. A tabor; a small drum in form of a sieve; a increased in the proportion of 100 to 60. The use of 2. A side-drum. "Trumpeters Make mingle with our rattling tabourines ." Shakesp.: Antony and Cleopatra , iv. 1. Tā-bõr-ītes, s . pl . [Bohem. tabor =a tent.] Church History: A section of Calix tines, who received their name from a great encampment organized by them on a mountain near Prague in 1419, for the purpose of receiving the Communion in both kinds. On the same spot they founded the city of Tabor, and, a embling an insurrectionary force, marched on Prague under the lead of Ziska (July 30, 1419), and committed great atrocities under the pretense of avenging insults offered to the Calixtine custom of communicating under both kinds. On the death of King Wenceslaus (Aug. 16, 1419) they began to destroy churches and monasteries, to persecute the clergy, and to appropriate church property on the ground that Christ was shortly to appear and establish his personal reign among them. They were eventually conquered and dispersed in 1453 by George Podiebrada (afterward King of Bohemia). tā-bour-ět, s. [TABORET.] 1. A taboret.
