6 Gee, The Electrical Resistance of the Human Body. 



Preliminary Measjii'ejuents. In order to compare the 

 two methods it was thought to be advisable to make 

 measurements with materials such as cotton which could 

 be moistened with water or salt solution. In Table I. 

 comparative tests are recorded. 



The instruments were then recalibrated and the bridge 

 method made more sensitive. 



Table Ia. shows the results which were then obtained. 



Table II. 



These figures show that the results by the two methods 

 are in substantial agreement. This was also the case 

 when measurements were made with porous materials 

 and parchment membranes. 



Measurements of Body Resistance. 

 We have applied the two methods in finding the
