CHAPTER 1. Here is a little out-line sketch. Do yousee what a pretty principle in brakes it re-presents ? The forward shoes are lifted in thesame direction as the wheels are revolving andthe wheels do most of the work. Looks nice, dont it? and it is nice. Brakes built on this principlestop a car quick, a trifle over half the distance of the ordinary brake by actual tests, and so nice andsmooth, too, without a jerk or jar and without skidding the wheels. Perhaps you dont see whythis is; well, the wheels do most of the work, dont have to use such an enormous leverage to getresults, therefore dont have so much slack chain; in fact, our slack chain is reduced to about a halfturn. You see why a man is not so apt to skid his wheels:—Watch that fellow tugging andstraining at his brake ! He dont know his heels are skidding and even if he did, its too muchtrouble to release for a new hold so he pounds sand on the track instead. Nice tiat places he is mak-ing on his wheels. Our brake applies
