Placed centrally between north and south, on a deep and wide river, Antwerp is the natural outlet of Central Europe towards the West, and it is no wonder that four hundred years ago she gathered to herself the commerce of the Netherlands, in which Ypres, Bruges, and Ghent had been her forerunners.

File and rub the sides until no projections are visible. Then drill twelve 3/32-inch holes right through the three parts. After separating them, the holes in the walls and what will be the cover must be enlarged to an easy fit for 1/8-inch bolts, and the valve plate tapped. Now drill 3/16-inch holes centrally through the ends of the walls for the valve rod.

Owing to the rotundity of the planet, only the central part of the disk is sharply defined, and markings which can be easily seen when centrally located become indistinct or disappear altogether when near the limb. Approach to the edge of the disk also causes a foreshortening which sometimes entirely alters the aspect of a marking.

On the other hand, if the four were massed and centrally placed, which is the correct disposition of any mobile force, military or naval, intended to counteract the attack of an enemy whose particular line of approach is as yet uncertain, their sluggishness and defective nautical qualities would make them comparatively inefficient.

There a land barrier of 300 miles, midway between the Pentland Firth and the English Channel centrally situated, that is, with reference to all the Atlantic approaches to Great Britain gives to an adequate navy a unique power to flank and harass either the one or the other, or both.

The winner reached the centrally located rostrum. Alan looked at him. He was tall, fairly young in his thirties, perhaps with stooped shoulders and a dull glazedness about his eyes.

It is also in some of his clerical figures when they are not caricatures, and certainly in "Robert," the City waiter of "Punch." But so irresistible is the derision of the woman that all Charles Keene's persistent sense of vulgarity is intent centrally upon her.

The strap, of strip brass, is fastened to the piece by four screws, the eccentric rod by two screws. Crosshead and Guides. The importance of having them quite flat and straight is, of course, obvious. Assuming that all the parts mentioned have been prepared, the cylinder should be arranged in its proper place on the bed, the piston rod centrally over its centre line.

To these simple natives, it must have been a scene almost as astounding as if a legion of adventurers, from the star Sirius, were at midnight to make their appearance in the streets of a European city. The house of the chief was centrally situated. It was a large mansion, nearly three hundred feet in length by one hundred and twenty in width.

To secure sleep means then not to treat the symptoms of the disease but a by-product; and yet every physician knows how much is gained if the lost energies are restituted by a sound sleep. And finally we have the indirect help towards the cure by the suggestive removal of pain. We have no right to say that it is a pure advantage for the treatment of the disease if the pain is centrally inhibited.
