A writer in the London Notes and
Queries says: "Iti is worth while re-
cording that the penny in the slot
automatic machine was known in the
time of Hero of Alexandria, who de-
scribes in his Pneumatics' a sacrifcial
vessel which flows only when money
is introduced. When the coin is
dropped through the slot it falls on
one end of a balanced horizontal lever
which, being depressed, opens valve
suspended from chain at the other
end and the water begins to flow.
When the lever has been depressed to
a certain angle the coin falls off, and
the valve, being weighted, returns to
its seat and cuts off the supply. Hero's
date is little uncertain, but he is
supposed to have lived b. G. 1l7-Sl."
