Frying eggs on ice is entirely feasible.
as was demonstrated at a recent cleo
trical exhibition given by the Univer-
sity OF Illinois. The eggs were placed
In an ordinary frying pan, and the

cracked ice on a kitchen table. Eggs
were fried nicely. though 1t took longer
than when stove is used. No wires
were In sight. The frying pan had no
electrical connections and could be
taken up and replaced at will.
Under the table was the secret. an
electromagnetic Even with the secret
divulged. the trick was wonderful
enough. for between the frying pan
and the magnet was pile of ice and
the board table top. neither of which
was affected excepting by the heat sent
down from the fryiDg pan.
A peculiar but simple principle of
electricity was used. An electromag
net. as IS generally known. is a horse
shoe shaped bar of iron. with coils Of
wire wound round each arm of the
horseshoe
When current of electricity is sent
through the coils Of wire the horseshoe
becomes magnet and will attract and
firmly grip any bit of iron placed near
the ends of the arms or poles. This
applies to a direct current of electric
1ty. If. however. an alternating cur
rent of electricity is sent through the
coils any iron near the magnet poles
is heated by what are called eddy
currents
In the egg frying trick the magnet
was placed under the table. and an
alternating current was sent through
the eoils.-Saturday Evening Post
