The lower portion of the Same is broughtnearer to the slot, which is thus opposed to a light ofdiminished intensity. So far as my tests have ex-tended, I find that the Ten-candle Test, whenburning enriched gas, is remarkably constant, and wellmerits further trial. Summing up the general results of the tests whichI have lately made, and expressing them, for con-venience, in percentage variation from the mean, I FLAT FLAME No. 1. HORIZONTAL RAYS. Flat to ANGULAR RAYS.
