The graphite rheostat, which is the bestkind, will safely and surely control either the galvanic, faradic or combinedcurrents so that the operator may give any dosage from the mildest to thefull capacity of the battery without danger of shock. The shunt milliampere meter is the most important part, as it measures. 58 THE GUIDE the dose. It has a long scale for heavy doses registering from o to 400 ma.,a short scale for light doses, from o to 20 ma. You always should knowthe amount of current passing all the time. The rheotome gives variousinterruptions of either, from 8 to 600 per minute. It is automatic, and hasa scale on the face with guide to set the ball on the pendulum so as to getany desired number of interruptions. All needed switches are in place andthe whole is simple and easily operated, and will not get out of order.
