is wound on the roller h, and its outer end being carried over the roller g is made fast to i, which is driven by a string from the fusee j, which bears on its axis a wheel m gearing into one on the shaft A. Until resistance is applied to the wheel C the two pencils make a single line, but when the spring is flexed the lines of the pencils diverge, one pencil continuing to draw a straight line and the other tracing a line at a distance from the first, varying with the degree of flexure. Emerson's lever-dynamometer (5, Fig. 1813) is also designed for measuring power in transmission. The pulley A is loose on the shaft, and receives the power. Its connection with the shaft is made by means of a wheel keyed to the shaft and connected to the pulley by certain levers which have connection B C D with a pendulous weight E which registers on a scale F the amount of power exerted upon A to produce the motion of the pulley G, which is fixed to the shaft and delivers the power.

d small frictional resistance and viscosity; on locomotives, an oil that will bear high pressure for the greatest length of time without heating is the most desirable, even although not as limpid and of as slight frictional resistance. The relative power of resisting high temperatures without decomposition is another important point which may be tested. See thermo-electric alarm; temperature-alarm; thermoscope; etc. Hydraulic tensile testing-machine. Testing-machine. Fig. 6331 is Emerson's apparatus for testing water-wheels. The wheel b is secured to the shaft of the water-wheel, and its speed is regulated by the friction-band a, which is connected with the scale-beam as shown, the point of connection describing a circumference of 15 feet. The rim of the wheel and the friction-band are hollow, and are kept cool by streams of cold water passing through them. The wheel b is made of cast-iron, and the friction-band of gun-metal. The hands of the counter are operated by worm
