Lectures on nervous diseases from the standpoint of cerebral and spinal localization, and the later methods employed in the diagnosis and treatment of these affections . h paper collectors and disks oftin-foil.

It is claimed that this machinewill work in all weathers. 1 have notfound this to be strictly fact; al-though it is not as much attected bydampness as an ordinary This machine is usuallynot encased,—a defect which I haveremedied with satisfactory is lighter and less expensive thantlie improved patterns of the Holtzmodel; but it is far less satisfactorj^in medicine, because it generates amuch smaller quantity of electricityand has less intensity. The sparkelicited may be a moderately long-one (when compared with the radiusof the revolving plates); but it israther a thin spark at best,—thus confirming the view expressed by merespecting the quantity Fig. 169.—An Appauatus for GiineuatingFkictional Electkrityby Sikam.
