For the truth of all which, humanity has a sure instinct. When there is a crisis we say, Look for the Man. If this phoenix and phenomenon in time, now with no competitor above the horizons, could not settle affairs, only Omnipotence could. Pompey, the only possible alternative, was dead; Caesar was lord of all things. Pharsalus, the deciding battle, was fought in 48; he returned home in 46.

So expect me in the evening; if I happen not to come, I shall be all right nevertheless. Cordial remembrances to our cross little mother. Your most faithful B. Potsdam, November 10, '48. My Angel, Please, please do not scold me for not coming today either; I must try to put through some more matters in relation to the immediate future.

They were '48 men, with literary gifts of one sort and another, who certainly helped me along with my writing, but, as matters fell out, did not go far enough to influence my character, for they were a wild lot, full of taking enthusiasm and juvenile decrepitude of judgment, ripe for adventures and ready for any enterprise that promised fun and fighting. Between John Savage and Mrs.

There are still mild differences of elevation, but generally speaking the plain is flattening out; no doubt we are rising slowly. Camp 48. Bar. 21.02. The first two hours of the afternoon march went well; then we got on a rough rise and the sledge came badly. Camped at 6.30, sledge coming easier again at the end. We are on the 86th parallel.

In the London Field, of Dec. 9, 1911, it is described by a writer who also thoughtfully conceals his identity under a nom-de-plume. After a trial of 48 shots, the writer declares that "the 3-barreled is a really practicable weapon," and that with it one could bag wild-fowl that were quite out of reach of any shot-gun.

After these class experiments I turned to individual tests. First, every girl had to sort a pack of 48 cards into 4 piles as quickly as possible. The time was measured in fifths of a second. The following experiment which referred to the accuracy of movement impulses demanded that every one try to reach with the point of a pencil 3 different points on the table in the rhythm of metronome beats.

and, going through the alphabet, if necessary, as before, we arrive at the word 'tree, as the sole possible reading. "Looking beyond these words, for a short distance, we again see the combination ;48, and employ it by way of termination to what immediately precedes. or, substituting the natural letters, whereknown, it reads thus: the tree thr‡?3h the.

It was January 4, 48 B.C., when he sailed. On June 6 of the same year was fought, at Pharsalia, in Thessaly, a great battle which decided the fate of the Roman world.

The battle was fierce and desperate.

Now, of all words in the language, 'the' is most usual; let us see, therefore, whether there are not repetitions of any three characters, in the same order of collocation, the last of them being 8. If we discover repetitions of such letters, so arranged, they will most probably represent the word 'the. Upon inspection, we find no less than seven such arrangements, the characters being;48.

The great chamber of the tomb consists of an impressive circular vault 48 feet in diameter and in height.
