THE STUDY OF MUSCLE PHYSIOLOGY. 179 raise a weighted lever which is attached to a point writing on acylinder moved by some sort of clock-work. In this case thecylinder is kept stationary during the contraction of the mus-cle ; hence the records appear as straight vertical lines. For recording movements of great rapidity, so that the in-tervals between them may be apparent, such an apparatus as is
