.

You have seen l)eforethat we may now convey the electric vibration to a body bymeans of a single wire or conductor of any kind. Since the HTGE FREQUENCY AND HIGH POTENTIAL CURRENTS. 859 tuman frame is conducting I may convey the vibration throughmy body. First, as in some previous experiments, I connect my body withone of the terminals of a high-tension transformer and take in myhand an exhausted bulb which contains a small carbon buttonmounted upon a platinum wire leading to the outside of the bulb,and the button is rendered incandescent as soon as tlie transformeris set to work (Fig. 190). I may place a conducting shade on thebulb which serves to intensify the action, but is not is it re(juired that the button should be in conducting con-nection witli the liand through a wire leading through the glass,.
