he placed the Phial in a Receiver, and so exhausted the Air from it; he then expofed the empty Receiver and Phial to the Sun, and by Means of a Convex-glafs melted the Edges of the Wax about the Hole, till it was thereby clofed up. M. Ber

noully advises, after this is done, to apply the Receiver again to the Pump, to fee if, during the Operation, there has not a little Air flipped into the Receiver by fome unperceived Aperture: The fureft Way, he adds, is to hold all the Parts of the Receiver, by which the Air can infinuate itself, under Water, during the Operation. Being thus affured that all is tight, admit the Air into the Receiver, in order to take out the Phial, which being thus prepared, ferves for a Phosphorus, whenever it is agitated in the Dark.

In the making of these Inftruments, three Circumstances are to be most carefully minded: 1. That the Phial be exceeding clean and dry within. 2. That the Quickfilver be not much stirred before the Air is exhaufted from it. 3. That the Air be drawn out of the Phial as much as poffible: If this is not performed to the utmoft Nicety, there will be no Phosphorus, or it will be very faint, and not durable.
