Its spiclal advantage ad-vantage Is for electric machinery and for locomotives, where a high ratu of speed Is desirable. Tbo ordinary t n-glue n-glue can be driven up to n rata of .100 revolutions tir mlnutu. but Mr. Allen's naclus 1200 rovoluttuus. Ho uses four lylluders an nu cccun-trio cccun-trio motion within n eating, ills-luoelng ills-luoelng with the link motion and crank.

Another advantage which tbe now Invention po--e-.es la thut there Is lu It no "dead center."
