It consisted of a sul phur ball turned by a crank on ac axis and excited by the friction oi the hand. This crude apparatus war the means by which the first electric light was produced, or first recognized. By its means he established definitely the principle of electrical repulsion. The principle of electrification by induction was observed but not established. Von Guericke': name is most closely associated with the discovery of producing light from electricity. Upon drawing a piece of amber swiftly through t woolen cloth and exerting pressure on it with his hand, cracklings were heard, and every one of these produced a little flash of light; drswing the amber gently through the cloth produced only light, no sound, but by holding his finger st a little distance from the amber, a large crackling was produced with . s . larger flash of light succeeding it PLANTS HYDRANGEAS LILIES JONQUILS CINERARIAS ROSE BUSHES AZALEAS HYACINTHS * TULIPS CUT FLOWERS SNAPDRAGONS CARNATIONS ROSES -- GARDENIAS -- CAME LIAS DAISIES -- JONQUILS -- TULIPS Please Order Corsages Early McHenry Floral Co.
