arming of those charms which allowed them once to conquer, in the unavoidable battles they wage for the closed-up wallet of the man." J .-K. Huysmans, Croquis parisien, (Pari" 1886), pp. 129, 131-132 ("L'Etiage"
which deals with the material-each element existing independently of the others. The theory of friction and with it the investigations into the mathematical forms of gear-wheels cogs and so forth, were all developed in connection with the mill; the same applies to the theory of measurement of the degree of motive power of the best way of employing it and so on. Almost all the great mathematicians since the middle of the seventeenth century, so far as they dealt with practical mechanics and worked out its theoretical side started from the simple water-driven corn mill. And indeed this was why the name Miihle, "mill,' which arose during the manufacturing period, came to be applied to all mechanical forms of motive power adapted to practical purposes. But in the case of the mill, as in that of the press, the forge, the plough, and other implements, the work proper-that of beating, crushing, grinding, pulverizing, and so on-has been performed from the very first without human labor, even though the moving force was human or animal. This kind of' machinery is therefore very ancient . ... Hence, it is practically the only maehinery found in the manufacturing period. The industrial revolution begins as soon as mechanisms are employed where, from ancient times, the final result has required human labor; hence not where, as with the tools mentioned above, the material actually to be worked up has never been dealt with by the human hand."
