Disconnect them, and thebattery is ready for use, and must be handled the same as anyother battery. This single cell will burn a 2-candle lampfor one hour. After the battery is discharged, attach it again tothe 8-cell battery for two hours, and it will be as fully chargedas the first time. If the top is properly sealed, the batterymay be carried in the pocket. In conclusion I would state thatif you fail to reach any result the first time you try any of ISE ELECTRICITY. 57 these experiments, try it over again and you will succeed betterthan at Great care must be taken to have all wires and connectionsproperly insulated, and you will find that many a failure isreferable to the neglect of this precaution. All materal usedshould be dn/and clean-, dirt and moisture are good conduct-ors. If you arc unable to make one part of an apparatus, youmay save a great deal of worry and time by purchasing thesame at a low price from some dealer in such articles. Instru-ments of this kind are very expensive, but single parts are very
