paratus were made. In his book Mr. St. John
has given directions in simple language for making and using these
devices, and has illustrated these directions with admirable
diagrams and cuts. The little volume is unique, and will prove
exceedingly helpful to those of our young readers who are fortunate
enough to possess themselves of a copy. For schools where a course
of elementary science is taught, no better text-book in the first
steps in electricity is obtainable."--The Great Round World.
Exhibit of Experimental Electrical Apparatus
AT THE ELECTRICAL SHOW, MADISON SQUARE GARDEN, NEW YORK.
While only 40 pieces of simple apparatus were shown in this exhibit, it
gave visitors something of an idea of what young boys can do if given
proper designs.
