Fig. 2327 shows the appa-ratus as arranged to carrythe belt from the horizontalpulley under the foot-path onwhich the horse walks. Asrepresented in Fig. 2326, theshaft may be carried under the foot-path or to a floor above. The diameter of the path should befrom 25 to 30 feet, and the Bpeed of the horse should be at the rate of about 2i miles per hour. Fig. 2328 represents a form of horse-power arranged on a different principle from the this the weight of the horse as well as the animals muscular power is utilized. The wooden step-boards D are arranged in an endless belt, and are supported by a series of small rollers which rest
