In Fig. 2 are shown the thermostat and shaking device and the
manifold for connecting the tubes to the manometer. The mani-
fold is of capillary tubing and consists of three a-way stop-cocks
so arranged that any one of the six tubes may be selected.4 Sealed
to the manifold there is another 3-way stop-cock, D, one branch
of which leads to the manometer while the other is open. Through
this open branch the tubes may be evacuated at the beginning or
during a run, as desired. A vacuum source is provided for this

purpose by placing another outlet from the vacuum reservoir
near at hand (the 2-way Stop-cock E in Fig. 2).
The tubes which we use are of the two types shown in Fig. 3.
The lower is a closed tube, sealed at one end, while the upper is
designed to permit the introduction of solutions through an inlet
equipped with a stop-cock. The support arms are furnished with
copper sleeves into which are soldered small brass rods bent to a
right angle. The sleeves are attached to the glass arms with
sealing wax or with De Khotinsky cement.
