A-225 sulated wire, and provided with a needle, which must not be longer thanone-sixth of the diameter of the ring, hung or pivoted precisely in itscentre, as shown in Fig 19. This instrument, as shown in Fig. 20, is mounted on a hard-rubberbase, seven and three-eighths inches in diameter, provided with levelingscrews and anchoring points. The galvanometer consists of a magne-tized needle seven-eighths of an inch in length, suspended at the centreof a rubber ring, six inches in diameter, containing the coils. Thecoils are five in number, of the resis
