2 or 3 hours after it seemed rather greater at -5. 



Next morning was plainly greater at -7. 



The water being changed for fresh, seemed rather less at -3. 



The distilled water changed for salt in 20,000. 



2-1 sensib. less.

1-8 seemed rather greater. 1-95 supposed right. 



1-9 not sensib. greater. 



2-1 sensib. less. 



Salt in 999 conducts 20 times better than salt in 20,000. 



Salt in 20,000 conducts about 7 times better than distilled water; therefore 

 if distilled water contains j^^nis f sa ^t their conducting powers will be as the 

 quantity of salt in them.
