Fig. 15 represents a decoraposing-cell apparatus. The copper 

 plate aa in the vessel with the tamborine A, is connected by- 

 means of the strip with the copper plate gg of the vessel B, (fig. 

 15.) The leaden disc e is connected by a metal strip with the 

 copper plate ff of the vessel B, and upon this latter plate lies the 

 painted plate bb. In this arrangement the copper plate gg is 

 taken up and consumed in the same ratio that copper is deposited 

 upon bb, and upon the parts of ff not insulated by a coat of wax.
