Mr.. Davis quick to explain that he did not
call for compulsory arbitration but compulsory discus

is no project afoot to amend the law creating the
division of concation of the Labor Department, but
he declared the need for enactment of such legislation
as would provide stronger means for making
employers and employees live up arbitration contracts
than the force of public opinion.

GREATEST OF ALL MACHINES
Human Heart Has Capacity Which All
Modern Ingenuity Has Found It
Impossible to Guido.

The pulse of the great Napoleon is
said to have made only fifty beats a
minute. Eighty is not an unusual
number.
But, suppOsing the case Of a heart
that beats 70 times a minute, eXpel-
ling ten cubic inches of blood at each
stroke" it is apparent that the little
pump delivers 40 cubic inches in one
hour, over 100000 cubic inches in
day, or (as may be easily reckoneO
about 1000 tons of vital fluid in a
twelvemonth.
In figuring this out, the Scientific
American calls attention TO the fact
that Il human heart has four compart.
ments-two auricles and two vcntri-
Giles. The auricles are merely reser-
voirs, The energy developed by the
pump is furnished by the right and left
ventricles-the right one sending i'm
pure blood to the lungs and the left
one forcing the purified blood into cir
culatiOn.
The left ventricle alone uses in a
day enough energy to raise one ton 90
feet.
All the blood pumped by one heart
engine in one year would suffice to fill
tank 81 feet long, 81 feet wide and
81 feet high. Or, If the tank were
cylindrical and so feet in diameter. It
would have to be 115 feet high in or
der to hold the 100000 gallons
pumped by a single heart in the course
of q tWelvemOnth.
