At the same time electric currents. passed along the arm, shocking her quite severely.— ’ When her husband was informed of the fact he discredited ‘its reality, thinking there was more imagination than anything else init. So the next evening to convince the incredylous better half, she turned the gas out in the room where they were sitting, and letting her hair down began combing it. A remarkable display ‘of light was-the result. The sparks flew in eVery~ direction, and there was a sharp, cracking sored as the teeth of the comb passed between the hairs.
