Catalogue of Sharp & Smith : importers, manufacturers, wholesale and retail dealers in surgical instruments, deformity apparatus, artificial limbs, artificial eyes, elastic stockings, trusses, crutches, supporters, galvanic and faradic batteries, etc., surgeons' appliances of every description. t of the change added to theabove price. 826 SHARP & SMITH, CHICAGO. DESCRIPTION OF THE McINTOSH COMBINED GAL-VANIC AND FARADIC BATTERY. Fig- 5259, No. I, shows the hard rubber plate of a section (on the under surface of which iscemented a sheet of soft vulcanized rubber) and binding posts which project through the hard andsoft rubber, and screw into the brass piece holding the zinc and carbon couples. The rubber plareon which the couples are clamped project over one side enough to cover the cells when the zinc andcarbon plates are placed in the drip-cups. When the cells are not in use, and the lid of the Bat-tery box is closed, it presses on the spring handle of the section (5-259, No. 1) and holds the softrubber firmly over the cells and drip-cup. By this arrangement the hydrostat is made water-tight. Fig. 5260, No. 2, shows a section of six cells and a drip-cup, made of one piece of hard vul-canized rubber. The drip cup is to receive the zinc and carbon couples when not in Fig. 5261, No. 3. Fig. 5262, No. 4. An extra cell of large size is added to the combined Battery for the purpose of running theFaradic Coil (Fig. 5261, No. 3). This renders the Battery more perfect than any yet offered tothe profession. This extra cell gives sufficient power for the Faradic current, and the operatoris not obliged to connect and exhaust the current from the galvanic cells. If greater strength isever needed in an emergency than the extra cell gives, the galvanic cells can be connected withthe coil. (See directions). The Faradic Coil (Fig. 5262, No. 4) is securely fastened on a plateof polished hard rubber, which serves for a cover to the large cell and dripcup, and to hold theeleme
