''Human Horsepower" "

A MACHINE to determine the horse
power of human beings has been
perfected in New York and is said TO
be in successful operation there. The
machine, known as the eurostometer,
is simply constructed and combines
an ordinary bicycle arrangement and
a hand wheel. Operation of these de-
vices brings into play every set of
muscles ordinarily employed by men
and women while at work.
In making the test the operator
keeps the bicycle device or the hand
wheel preceding at a predetermined
rate per minute. A weight brake is
slowly applied until the subject be-
gins to feel fatigue. The weight reg.
listers on a scale beam graduated in
terms of horsepower instead of avo,c=

"As a building material pise is
infinitely superior and more durable
than slabs, galvanized iron or wealth
er boards. In fact, 1t is questio!sble
whether it is not more suited for
our climate than brickwork. For
pse buildings, properly prepared, are
quite as durable and much cooler
than buildings constructed with solid
brick walls.
This statement may be questioned
by those whose knowledge of pise
work is limited to buildings so badly
planned that the very elemental prin-
ciples of building construction have
been neglected. Indifferent workman

If its qualities had to be estimated
by the appearance presented by a
building made of badly burned brick
laid by unskillful tradesmen. Just
as with other building material, the
possibilities of pise can only be
Judged by an examination of properly
planned and constructed examples OF
the pise builders art.
Some idea Of the durability Of
pise may be formed by the fact that
there is stable built of pise which
has been In constant use for over
sixty years and is at present time

of the stable is more surprising be-
cause the external walls are unpro-
tected from the weather, and II is
generally recognized that pise work,
especially if upholstered, should be
protected from the direct action of
rain. Pise buildings are said to have
a life of century and half"
There is ample proof for giving
pise that life or longer, At Empan-
demi, South Africa, there were built
about twenty years ago the follow

slightest signs of deterioration: A

THOMAS JEFFERSON

THOMAS JEFFERSON advised
colonists of the use of pise con-
struction back in the early days of
the republic. Just where he learned
about it is not certain. but probably
from reading of the farm buildings
in the Rhine valley. Like many of
the good bits of advice handed us by
our far-seeing forefathers. this infor-
nation was gradually forgotten. Log
cabins were easy to build. Trees were
plentiful. Indeed, the fields had to be
cleared So pise was forgotten. to be
resurrected now after much laborious
research, as a result of the wasteful-
ness of the past It will insure perma-
nent buildings, however, for the fu-
ture and be of great help in conserv-
ing lumber.
In other countries the art of pise
has been preserved. The authorities in
New South Wales prepared in 1911
an outline on pise for the benefit of
the settlers in that country. They
state:

rey's house, made of tile. weighs
eighteen tons. This is supported by
160 feet of earth wall capable of
bearing easily ten tons to the foot
Do you doubt the safety of the house?
An old work on civil engineering
bears further testimony to the perma-
nence and great durability of pise
walls:
This method of construction is far
more simple than that where un-
burnt brick is employed and is by no
means as costly. 1t is universally

and that the walls had attained the
hardness and compactness equal to

to increase the size of the windows
and other apertures the workmen
were obliged absolutely to use the

Curiously. about two months after
the earth wall had been completed

Ecnols county convIcts recently adop-

It's said that they planned to burn

While the cage was being moved
