"When all of the positive plates are connected on one side, and all of the negative plates are connected on the other side, as shown, the cells are said to be joined in parallel, or in multiple arc." -Avery 1895

A is a positively charged conductor and B represents the equal and oppsite charge. When the conductor C is introduced into the field, some of the lines of force are divided, since they cannot exist in a conductor.

"The coils of wire may begin near one pole of the magnet and terminate near the other, or the wire may consist of shorter pieces wound over each other, on any part of the magnet. In either case, the ends of the wire, where several pieces are used, must be soldered to two strips of tinned sheet copper, for the combined positive and negative poles of the wires. To form the magnet, these pieces of copper are made to commnicate with the poles of the battery, by means of cups containing mercury, as shown in the figure, or by any other method." —Comstock, 1850

This form shows a positive and negative tetrahedron in combination.

"Terminated usually by a combination of a positive and negative rhombohedron, which often are so equally developed as to give the effect of a hexagonal pyramid. Sometimes one rhombohedron predominates or occurs alone." — Ford, 1912

"The rhombohedron is a form consists of six rhombic-shaped faces, which correspond in their position to the alternate faces of a hexagonal pyramid of the first order. There may be two different orientations of rhombohedron. A negative rhombohedron is shown." — Ford, 1912

"It consists of four isoceles triangular faces which intersect all three of the crystallographic axes, the intercepts on the two horizontal axes being equal. The faces correspond in their position to the alternating faces of the tetragonal pyramid of the first order. There maybe different sphenoids, depending upon their varying intersections with the vertical axes. There may also be a positive and a negative sphenoid, the combination of the two being represented." — Ford, 1912

"The tetrahedron is a form composed of four equilateral triangular faces, each of which intersects all of the crystallographic axes at equal lengths. It can be considered as derived from the octahedron of the Normal Class by the omission of the alternate faces and the extension of the others. If the other four faces of the octahedron had been extended, the tetrahedron resulting would have had a different orientation, known as the negative tetrahedron." — Ford, 1912

"If a positive and negative tetrahedron occured together with equal development, the resulting crystal could not be distinguished from an octahedron, unless, as is usually the case, the faces of the two forms showed different lusters, etchings, or striations that would serve to differentiate them." — Ford, 1912
