"When all is said and done, there's betta a lot more said than done." The quiet man in the crowd had grown tired of the boastful talk of the others. During a lull in the con- versation, he said: "My brother has just secured a novel mechanical contrivance which operates in a most amazing way." "How?" said someone. "Well, by means of a fulcrum lever pedal attachment it converts vertical reciprocal motion into circular im- petus. Its principal part is a huge hardened disk that revolves parallel t« gravitation ray.s of force. Powoi' is appied through the axis of the disk, where the hardest steel may he worked into shape."
