temperature curves capable of accurate comparison with those of 

 saturated air immersion under otherwise identical conditions. The 

 experiments of Series V are probably more exact than any of the others, 

 for reasons already explained. 



Table I. Summary of Series II. 



0'55 gramme of cotton wool covering thermometer C. Water 

 immersion at 16 18. r = 3 to 3J minutes. 



Table II. Summary of Series III. 



0*53 gramme of cotton covering thermometer C. Saturated air immer- 

 sion at 18-0. r = about 6 minutes, slightly increasing with^?. 



Under t, in this and the following tables, is given the time at which 

 each experiment was concluded; and the corresponding values of 0, 

 A, and m, are given in the appropriate columns.
