Experiments in muscular elasticity may also be madewith the apparatus briefly described above, by measuringthe extensions of the muscle by the variations of a leverattached to it. The easiest way to do this is by fasten-ing an indicating apparatus to the lever in such a way

The^Yeight of the lever is held in equipoise by the balance11. When ■weights are placed in the scale-pan at F, thelever moves upward, and its point marks a straight linewhich afifords opportunity for measuring the amount ofthe extension. But in whatever way examined, muscle, in commonwith all other soft bodies, exhibits another variationfrom the bearing of rigid bodies. We have seen thatin steel or similar bodies the extension is exactly pro-portionate to the weight applied; that is to say, if agiven steel wire is extended one millimetre by onekilogramme,
