[ It works rapidly and easily, and turns out cupels thatare very uniformly compressed, and that <;ive under similarconditions exceedingly regular silver absorptions -nhich areas low as those of the best hand-made cupels, or of cupelsthat we have tested, made hy other machines. The cupel-pressing machine is a No. 7 upright leverpress of the regular style, made by the K.

The opening at the centre ofthe bed-plate is filled by a removable plug made flush with the plate. Planks are fitted around the bed-plate and the backpart of the press, forming a table, 38 x 48 inches, with thepress in the centre.
