Eradicate chuckled at the thought. Then a pain in his shocked arm made him wince. A wry look passed over his face.
"Yas, sah, Koku done jump about ten feet," he said. "An—an' den I jump too. Ain't no use in denyin' dat fact. I done jump when I got dat shock."
"All right, Rad. You may go now. I think I'm on the right track!" exclaimed Tom. "Come on, Ned, we'll try some experiments and we'll see what we can do."
"No shocks though—cut out the shocks, Tom," stipulated his chum.
"Oh, sure! No shocks! Now let's get busy and improve on Eradicate's Angel Gabriel system."
Tom made a quick examination of the apparatus.
"I understand it, I think," he said. "Koku was near the plate in the other booth when Rad put on the double current. There was a light there, and in an instant his likeness was sent over the wire, and imprinted on this plate. Now let's see what we can do. You go to that other booth, Ned. I'll see if I can get your picture, and send you mine. Here, take some extra selenium plates along. You know how to connect them."
