An Electrophorus. (The solid disk of resin is beaten with a cat's skin and thereby becomes electric. The cover, fastened to an insulated glass handle, is then put on and touched by a finger. If it is then lifted, it will give a spark of positive electricity capable of igniting a fine jet of hydrogen gas.)
