Wanted

A reward of 5,000 micro-farads has been offered for the capture of Hopalong Capacity who escaped from a primary cell last night. He is armed with an electrode and is wanted for the induction of a 18 turn coil, which was found burned out near an oscillatory circuit. He is also wanted for stealing. He is a notorious exponent of the self inductive choke and is also wanted for driving a D.C. motor over a Wheatstone Bridge. If captured he will offer a great resistance and this must be neutralized. The potential difference between him and other criminals is that he always returns to the scene of oscillation via the negative feed-back. The electromotive forces have been searching for him for many kilowatt hours in the surrounding magnetic fields. He is 6 feet tall and has brown hair combed in a sine wave. He was last seen riding a kilocycle with his friend Eddy Currents (who was playing a harmonic phase). Charges against him are under Ohms Law.
