Our Cover this month represents a scene from the story entitled, “The Blue Dimension,” by Francis Flagg, in which the young assistant, looking through the newly created spectacles, sees the scientist’s head and other body come through the machine, which, by changing the rate of vibration of the body, allows it to manifest itself on another plane. The spectacles, also the scientist’s invention, allows the wearer to view this different plane. |
In Our Next Issue: Vandals from the Moon, by Marius. The steamship imitates the fish in its manner of locomotion, the airplane imitates the bird in its locomotion through the air. But no engineer seems to have ever thought of duplicating the snake motion for propelling heavy bodies. Yet it is perfectly plausible, and the author of this story may prove to be a prophet some day. It is certainly an interesting and original idea and furnishes excellent material in a unique interplanetary tale, this time dealing with the moon people who visit our Planet. The Invisible Man, by H. G. Wells. (A Serial in Two Parts) Part II. In the concluding chapters of this story, the harassed and harassing invisible man finally reaches an old scientist friend of his, to whom he relates his experiments, his unexpected success and his subsequent experiences. But you don’t need to be a dyed-in-the-wool scientist to become thoroughly absorbed in this detail or in the story of their subsequent experiences. You will enjoy it no matter how much science you know or don’t know. Baron Münchhausen’s Scientific Adventures,, by Hugo Gernsback. . (The three parts in this issue conclude this series.) What will our descendants do ages from now, when their air supply dwindles down to nothing? According to our very remarkable friend, the Baron, the Martians have already solved this problem by their marvelous invention of air plants, with which they generate their own air. The Baron tells us also, how the Martian canals were built, and, lest we think them always serious and scientific, we are permitted a glimpse into their lighter moments and learn something of the kinds of amusement in which they indulge. Just Around the Corner, by Raymond Knight. We offer this interesting playlet, which in a sense is based on science, as a novelty to our readers. It furnishes excellent material for an amateur, inexpensive production. |
