The cylinder carrying the first form is placed inside and toward the center of the press, only a part of its cog-wheel and its journal being shown in the engraving. The second form is placed upon the uppermost cylinder, and is the outside or cut form. Each one of the form cylinders requires a separate inking apparatus.

The diameter of the upper cylinder, on which its four feet alternately remained until the Arab had ended his ditty, was only two inches, and the length of each was six inches.

In England" he put the tip of his forefinger against the tip of his thumb and, lowering his hand, drew out this circle into an imaginary cylinder "In England they're tubular.

Black Bruin was not asleep in his cage, as he usually was on long journeys like this.

The engine should always be made to work full stroke, that is, until the catch pins be made to come within half an inch of the springs at each end, and the piston should stand high enough in the cylinder when the engine is at rest, to spill over into the perpendicular steam pipe any water which may be condensed above it; for if water remain upon the piston, it will increase the consumption of steam.

A A are the ordinary steam passages to the top and bottom of the cylinder; B B is the ring which rubs against the back of the valve casing, and D is the eduction passage, S S S S shows the limits of the steam space, for the steam penetrates to the central chamber S S by the sides of the valve.

I thought that you would only feel the greatest aversion to me, yet here you are in my own den trying to You imagine, I suppose, that a man is a kind of moral barrel-organ, and that when the tune he has been grinding out for a long time gets out of date, all he has got to do is to change the old cylinder for a new one and grind out a fresh tune. Do you understand me, Fan?"
