How does it work? This question has been put to me so often by persons young and old that I have at last decided to answer it in such a manner that a much larger public than that with which I have personal acquaintance may be able to satisfy themselves as to the principles underlying many of the mechanisms met with in everyday life. In order to include steam, electricity, optics, hydraulics, thermics, light, and a variety of detached mechanisms which cannot be classified under any one of these heads, within the compass of about 450 pages, I have to be content with a comparatively brief treatment. | HOW IT WORKS AUTHOR S NOTE.

In order to include steam electricity optics hydraulics thermics light and a variety of detached mechanisms which cannot be classified under any one of these heads within the compass of about 450 pages I have to be content with a comparatively brief treatment of each subject. This brevity has in turn compelled me to deal with principles rather than with detailed descriptions of individual devices though in several cases recognized types are examined. The reader will look in vain for accounts of the Yerkes telescope of the latest thing in motor cars and of the largest locomotive. But he will be put in the way of understanding the essential nature of all telescopes motors and steam-engines so far as they are at .
