protection,
is
decidedly
un-
philosophical
and
bad
in
practice,

shown
thus
:
Immerse

in

water,

on

it
out
it
will
be
found
to
sink
several
degrees;

it
will
immediately
rise
to
the
temperature
of
the
air.
Wrap
a
wet
cloth,
however,
round
the
bulb

the
thermometer,
and
it
will
l’etain
its
cool
state
till
the
