citizen of the United States, and a resident of Chicago, in the county of Cool; and State of ,5 Illinois, have invented certain new and useful tion, sufficient to enable those skilled in the I Improvements in Building-Blocks, oi which the following, when taken in connection with the drawings accompanying and forming a part hereof, IS a full and complete descripart to which it pertains to understand, make,
"and use the same.
' "My present invention relates to blocks to be used for erecting buildings, walls, and other constructions.
Que ob 'eot of this invention is to obtain a buildingdflock which is of a shape not liable 35 one side, and the top of thebiock.

are rvsp riivcl provided with apertures i) :1 l) 1! I) (("1 Series ofhorizontal and vertical passag -wars are thus obtainedthrough the wall built up of blocks embodying this invention.
R F. are raised ribs around apertures 1) (I correspond with, to'lit around, ribs l) E on the top (I of the block when such blocks are laid in a wall.
ff are grooves.
G is a raised rib extending"around the end of the block at one end thereof, and g is a rabbct corresponding with the rib (Loxtondin around the other end of the block.
\\''hen the blocks are-laid in a wall, the rib around one end of the block lits into the rabbct corresponding therewith around the end of the adjoining thereto.
In the modification illustrated inlfigs. 6 and block which is adjacent '7 the raised rib at one end of the Ldockcorrcsponds with ribti,licreinboforodescribed, and
is lettered ll. Rib ll extends from the top of the block to the bottonrthercot. It is a rabbet at't-he opposite end of the block correpondingwithrabbut y. Rabbet/tiitsovcrthe rib it when blocks embodying this uiodilica- :1 top and a bottom. and a horizontal intermetion are laid in a wall.
