movement of the galvanometer spot. At N1 there was no movement, but there was an upward movement of
response when the explorer came over the stimulated area "Carbonate." As the explorer passed on to N2 there was a cessation of movement, but when it reached the depressed area marked "Oxalic" there was a vigorous movement downwards (fig. 73).
Interference Effects
I have already described a case of interference in the galvanometric effect when the two points A and B in similar molecular conditions are simultaneously acted on by the same mechanical stimulus. Under these
