The experiments and discussions are so planned that the student is always prepared for what follows. Although the experiments may be performed with the apparatus that is usually found in school laboratories, the author has designed a complete set of apparatus for those who want to have their own outfit.
_If you want to take up a systematic course of experiments--experiments that will build a lasting foundation for your electrical knowledge--this book will serve as a valuable guide._

Fun With Magnetism and Fun With Electricity have started more young men upon electrical careers than any other scientific outfits ever placed before the public. The thousands upon thousands that have been sold in all parts of the world have furnished fun and science for people of all ages, and the mere fact that they are listed by the New York Board of Education, and recommend to the pupils and teachers of the New York public and private schools is a guarantee of their value. Were it not for the fact that these are made in such large quantities and sold by stores, agents and mail-order houses, the price would be much higher. Don't fail to get these. They have a national reputation.
This outfit contains a 32-page book of instructions, with 45 illustrations, together with a complete set of apparatus for performing 61 fascinating experiments. It will give you some new ideas about magnetism and start you at the right place in your study of electricity. Think what that means--to start right!
The book contains experiments with the horseshoe magnet, with bar magnets, with floating magnets, etc., etc., thus giving a practical knowledge of the subject; and it is all done in such an interesting way that one can't help remembering it. Every experiment clinches some fact and every fact is important.
