her’d to the Sulphur, and it had made its Way thro* 
the Paper, which conceal’d the Colour of the Paper, 
and its Adherence, till next Day ; however it per- 
form’d as* above. This was broke, by an Attempt 
to flrip the Paper off the Stick by a too officious Per- 
foil, without my Knowledge. 1 then caft another 
with* the fame Sulphur, and an Addition of frefh, 
melted together in a wood Mould, which came out 
fmooth and well 5 but was perfuaded, againft my own 
Judgment, to put a Gun-Rammer into the middle of 
the Mould, to flrengthen it; which Stick anfwer’d that 
End ; but, as I fear’d it would turn out, the Sulphur, 
tho’ of a great Thicknefs round the faid Gun-ftick, 
could by no means be excited to any tolerable De- 
gree. I therefore made a third, -as the firfl, which 
has the Paper on it as before, but it performs ex- 
ceeding well : Having fuffer'd myfelf to be eledtrified 
with it, upon the Approach of a Perfons Finger to 
mine, I had by far the molt painful Senfation I ever 
yet felt in any of thefe Experiments. 1 believe a 
glafsTnbe might be beft of all for a Mould (but mine 
are of too fmall a Bore), if one could be affured it 
would not break.
