A curious case has been recorded in
which an electric current was found to
be generated by plate Of artificial
teeth. A patient consulted his doctor
on account of a severe pain In his
tongue. But the sufferer was assured
that there was nothing the matter, He
then paid visit to his dentist, who in
formed him that his teeth were perfect
ly sound. Being. however, dissatisfied,
he called upon an electrician he knew
and asked him If it were possible he
could have any electricity in his mouth.
On examining the teeth his friend found
that two metals were used to fix them
to composition plate. To these metal
wires were then attached and connected
to galvanometer. Then the teeth were
replaced In the patients mouth and the
metals moistened with saliva No soon
er was this done than the galvanometer
showed quite large current from so
small enough. it is stated, to
cause liberation and severe pain when
long continued upon so sensitive an or
gan as the tongue. The plate was Gov
cred with an insulating varnish, and
thenceforward all the trouble ceased =

AERIAL NAVIGATION.
The Theory Of Professor WeI1ner's Sail
Wheel Flying Machine.

The Theory OF Professor WeIfner's Sail
Wheel Flying Machine.
The essence Of Professor Wellner's in
novation is his invention Of the sail
wheel. 1t consists of a horizontally
placed axis with spokes and arched
aeroplanes attached to them in a cylin-
drioal form. While revolving round the
axis the latter take a slightly slanting
position, which causes the forward edges
Of these surfaces to be inclined, and con-
sequently to compress the air in the way
of sail or kite, calling into play the
vertical force Three ribs running across
each lifting surface and made in the
form Of screw at the same time serve
to strengthen the aeroplanes and to add
to the horizontal force.
These sail wheels set In pairs can be
placed, according to the size Of airship
aimed at, in one or more groups Of two
wheels, revolving in opposite directions
behind or beside each other. The cigar
shaped car, furnished with a motor and
carrying the aeronauts, is attached hori-
zontally under the center Of the wheels.
SO that the whol6 construction will re-
semble colossal bird, propelled, In
stead Of by wings, by revolving wheels,
the lifting surfaces of which are con-
secutively and constantly developing
vertical and horizontal power. The
birds movements in flying and the
speedy Roadway motion necessary to the
kite flying machines for their support
in the air are in Professor Wellner's in
vention changed to a rotary motion.
This construction, while permitting Of
an easy, flow ascent, assures the hori-
zontal position and constant stability Of
the airship, at the same time permitting
Of high velocity. seW 76s1
The more the latter Is increased the
stronger is the lifting power developed.
The direction is'given by rudder at the
end Of the ship or by increasing the
velocity of the sail wheels on one side
only. It is the peculiar quality Of these
wheels tfat they do not, as might be
SUPPOSE disperse the air around them.
They rather attract it toward their rap
idly moving surface, condensing it to
powerful stream, which passes down
obliquely through their cylinders Their
velocity can be made to surpass by far
that of railway trains, thus enabling
them to conquer contrary winds and air
