Fromthis arrangement it follows that the portion of sponge No. 4 which is about to quit the water is pressed upon byNo. 5 float and spring, which, from actingvertically, is most efficient in squeezing thesponge dry; while that portion of the spongeon the point of entering the water is notcompressed at all from its corresponding(^water float No. 8, not having yet reached theedge of the water. By these means, there-f fore, it will be seen that the sponge always rises in a dry state from the water on the ascending side, while itapproaches the water on the descending side in an uncompressed state,and open to the full action of absorption by the capillary
