The electro-therapeutic guide, or, A thousand questions asked and answered . ^ the way of the least resistance, regardless of distance. It also ex-pends its greatest efforts where there is the most work to do, i. e., the great-est resistance to FoLAK AND INTERPOLAK AKBAS The accompanying sketch will illustrate the polar effects at A and C,and also the inter-polar effects atB. In the left hand cut we have two elec-trodes, A and C, of equal size, thus giving equal polar effects under them,and a uniform diffusion of the inter-polar effects at B, where the lines spreadout, become thin, then thicken and again come together. In the right hand cut we have the same size electrode at A, but anelectrode eight tmies as large at C. Hence the local polar effect manifest-ed at A will be just eight times as marked as it will be at any spot of thesame area under the electrode C, and while the aggregate polar effect at Cwill be the same as at A the same will be so distributed as to be of less effectin any part of C. Also the inter-polar effect at B gradually diffuses betweenA and B. These effects are still further shown in the accompanying sketches,showing the diffusion of the field of influence of the current, when passedthrough the human b
