Some of the englisg is very hard to understand, while other parts are 
surprisingly well translated.

For instance this segment I thought was rather good.

We take the glow small lamp from the box and connect the connections 
with the connections + and -4.5 V (fig. 2). Then we switch the switch on 
S6. The small lamp will brightly burn. The thin wire contained in the 
small lamp now forms a connection between the power source connections, 
and it comes off a strong electron flow, which is so strong that the 
electrons rub against the atoms of the thread very strongly 1). Friction 
however produces as well known warmth; it becomes so strong in our case 
that the thread begins glowing and light produced. The river flows 
thereby in such a way, like it into fig. 3 registered is i.e., from the 
negative pole thick with electrons over the small lamp to the positive 
terminal.
