Eudiometer. A graduated glass tube, fitted with platinum 



electrodes, used in analysis of explosive gas mixtures. 

 Evaporimeter or Evaporometer. An instrument for ascertaining 



the quantity of a liquid evaporated in a given time. An 



atmometer. [6, 13, 17, 18,.'] 

 Evaporimeter, Piche's. Consists of a graduated glass tube which 



is filled with the liquid and closed by a piece of filter or 



blotting paper. 

 Evaporimeter, Pickering's. Consists of a copper reservoir and 



a linen evaporating surface 50 sq. cm. in area. The volume 



of liquid evaporated is measured by a graduated glass tube.

 Extensometer. An instrument for measuring the extension of a 



body ; especially for measuring the elongation of bars of 



iron, steel, or other metal or material subjected to a tensile 



force. [3, 4. 8, 19] 

 Extensometer, Cambridge. An extensometer in which the 



extension of the test piece is measured by a micrometer 



screw and a modified form of contact measurement. [4]1 

 Extensometer, Dr. Morrow's Mirror. An extensometer in which 



the extension is measured by the deflection of a beam of 



light reflected from a mirror connected to two parts of the 



test piece. [3, 20] 

 Extensometer, Ewing. An extensometer, designed by Sir J. A. 



Ewing, in which the extension of the test piece is measured 



by means of a microscope with an eyepiece micrometer. [4] 

 Extensometer, Ewing Compression. An instrument for measuring 



the elastic compression of short blocks ; constructed on 



similar principles to the Ewing Extensometer. [4] 

 Eyeglass. Any form of lens for aiding and correcting vision, 



such as spectacles, a monocle, a pince-nez. [2, 3, 9, 13, 14, 



17, 21] 

 Eyeglasses, Frameless. A single or double eyeglass made 



without a rim or frame. [2, 9, 15, 17, 20, 21] 

 Eyepiece. An eyepiece is the lens or combination of lenses, next 



the observer's eye, used in microscopes or telescopes, etc., 



to examine the image formed at the focus of the'object-glass.
