This, however, is not of practical advantage in mostcases. An adjustable insulated handle, Fig. 20, of solid glass orvulcanite is a convenience permitting the operator to handle theelectrode during an administration without lessening the dis-charge from the current, which would otherwise pass offthrough his person. When a static machine is employed to produce the dis-charges the positive pole should be grounded and the electrodeconnected with the holder either placed in some cavity of thepatient, or held by the operator and connected with the nega-tive pole. The spark-gap should then be closed to about one-half inch and the machine started, after which the spark-gapis regulated to the condition of the
