Electricity
The following tool sets have been arranged especially for those who
wish to make use of the designs contained in "How Two Boys Made Their
Own Electrical Apparatus," "Real Electric Toy-Making for Boys,"
"Electric Instrument-Making," etc. It is very poor economy to waste
valuable time and energy in order to save the cost of a few extra tools.

or freight charges at the special prices below.
