MECHANISM OF NATURE 



Then what is the real unit of force ? 



Because all force requires an inequality. (Prop. 

 XVIII, B. 1.) And because all substances are 

 built up of primary spheres. (Prop. XIX, B. 1.) 



Because the primary spheres built up into or- 

 ganized atoms require less room in the Universe 

 than they did in void matter. (Prop. XX, B. 1.) 



Therefore, this change of matter, from its void 

 state to organization is the origin of force, as far 

 as human reason may comprehend. (Prop. XXI, 

 B.I.) 



And the real unit of force is, "One primary 

 sphere changed from void matter to organized 

 matter, and the corresponding, simultaneous change 

 of one P. S. from organized matter to void matter. ' '

Let Figure A represent a modified hydraulic 

 jack. And let B represent a large tube filled with 

 water. Let C represent a rod ten times as great 

 in diameter as the rod D ; and let both rods pene- 

 trate the closed ends of the tube B through tightly 

 fitting holes. Then for every pound of pressure 

 put on the small rod, pushing it in, there will be 

 a hundred pounds of pressure on the end of the 

 larger rod,
