Thomson used this analogy to visualize the arrangement of electrons in his model of the atom. There are magnetized needles floating in water, oriented such that they repel each other, but are simultaneously attracted to the electromagnet suspended above the center of the pool. This analogy is limited because it is two-dimensional.
Not Thomson's preferred analogy.
