Ano-Kato. The words ano, kato, are taken from the Greek,and mean up, down, and allude to the motions of theobjects noticed in the box. The cut shows its generalfeatures of building. It is a shallow box whosebottom and interior sides are coated with tin-foil. Anumber of objects are produced out of the lightest pith* The latter might be of the pith of cornstalks, ofelder pith, or, what is still greater, of the pith of thedry stalks of the sunflower. Small men with jointedlegs and arms, insects, jointed snakes, and so forth., are madeout of the pith, and could be colored with a little red ANO-KATO. 117 and black ink. The box is covered with a piece ofglass. If the glass is rubbed with a correct rubber, it be-comes electrically excited, and attracts the objects inthe box. As they rise, they touch the glass and as

They fall into thebox and are discharged by coming against the tin-foil, which, for higher possible difference, could be con-sidered to be in electrical communication with theearth. This operation goes on as extended as the rubbing iskept up. For the rubber, a pad of hair, or other material,about which a piece of kid glove is tied, is employed. 118 ELECTRIC TOT Generating.

city of the identical type to theremote side of the conductor, and attracting the opposite kindto the side close to to it. Such electrical action is known as induc-tion. The electrified body which produces the action is calledthe inducing physique the charge of electrical energy therefore created iscalled induced electrical energy. 403. Charging by induction. Experiment S. — Take a proof plane E (Fig. 339) (which consists of aninsulating manage of glass or gutta percha, terminating at a single end with athin metal disk, F, about the size of a 5-cent nickel), and connect it withan electroscope, G, by a fine wire, H. Bring a stick of sealing-waxelectrified as ahead of with — E near the egg-shell conductor. Holdingthe proof plane by the insulating handle, bring the disk close to the end ofthe conductor charged by induction with —E. The —E will act induc-tively upon the continuous conductor consisting of disk, wire, andelectroscope, charging the end nearest itself (i.e. the disk) with -)-E and CHAKGING BY INDUCTION. 443

Now although everything is in the position indicated by the cut, touchwith the finger anypart of the continu-ous conductor theleaves of the electro-scope quickly col-lapse. The —E withwhich the leaves hadbeen charged beingfree is dischargedthrough your physique.But the -|-E concen-trated on the disk ofthe proof plane is bound by the attraction of the charge of — E on the end of the shellnearest it, and can’t escape. Remove the finger from the electroscopeand the proof plane from the influence of the shell the leaves once more diverge. The final phenomenon is explained as follows i Right after — Ehad been discharged from the continuous conductor, therewas left an excess of + E but this excess was all concen-trated in the disk P so extended as it remained close to the negativecharge of the shell. But as soon as F was removed from theinfluence of the shell, the charg
