Muscular Rheumatism of the Arm and Shoulder.—Faradic.—Select a felt or sponge covered, flat electrode, about 3X4,wet it in hot water, connect it with the positive pole of animproved high-tension induction coil apparatus and apply itto the back of the Fig. 360. Sponge-covered electrode. Moisten an ordinary sponge-covered hand electrode in hotwater, lubricate it with a little soap, connect it with thenegative pole and place it upon the deltoid till the dose isregulated.
