"Look!" he said plaintively. "I just came over to make sure you were all right wild animals around! I wasn't studying the color scheme." "Beat it! At once!" Quillan inhaled with apparent difficulty. "Though now it's been mentioned," he went on, speaking rapidly and unevenly, "there is all that brown and that sort of pink and that lovely white."

They stood glaring at each other. Grant Harlson gasping, but himself again, as he inhaled the blessed air. Each stood at bay and watchful. "Woodell!" The man glared at him savagely. "What does it mean! What were you going to do?" "I was going to kill you." "Then they would have hung you." "No, they wouldn't; they would never have found you." "Did you have a knife?"

In addition to the excessive heat and dryness of these winds, they are impregnated with sand, and the air is darkened by it, the sky appears of a dusky yellow, and the sun is barely perceptible. The eyes become red, swelled and inflamed; the lips and skin parched and chapped; while severe pain in the chest is generally felt, in consequence of the quantities of sand unavoidably inhaled.

"He says his name is Gower," returned Lord Castleton, dryly, as he inhaled the Beaudesert mixture. "And where is he now, with Mr. Trevanion?" "Yes, I believe so. Ah! here we are Fudge & Fidget! But perhaps," added Lord Castleton, with a gleam of hope in his blue eye, "perhaps they are not at home!"

He kicked out desperately with his left foot and felt it strike something soft; and at that moment the hold upon his legs relaxed. The lad rose rapidly to the surface, where he inhaled great draughts of fresh air.

We get our smattering of science in the same way; we learn chemistry by listening to a short course of lectures enlivened by experiments, and when we have inhaled laughing gas, seen green water turned to red, and phosphorus burnt in oxygen, we have got our smattering, of which the most that can be said is, that though it may be better than nothing, it is yet good for nothing.

It is well just here, before passing to the next point of consideration, to answer a query which may arise at this juncture: What are the successive stages of effects upon the economy from its commencement until the full effect is observed, and what proof have I that it was due to the amount of air inhaled?

The fluid metallic mercury itself may be used in the form of salves, in which the mercury is mixed with fatty substances and rubbed into the skin. Mercury can be vaporized and the vapor inhaled, and probably the efficiency of mercury when rubbed into the skin depends to no small extent on the inhalation of the vapor which is driven off by the warmth of the body.

Then he inhaled a long draught of smoke from his cigarette, closed one eye as if it hurt him, and threw back his head to blow out the smoke again with a slow gasp of relief. "One never knows," was all the explanation he vouchsafed after this tedious performance. "Whether a chauffeur will steal his master's motor?" I asked. "Incidentally," he said.

"Is he dead, my poor, poor boy?" "Nonsense, Mr. Adkins, he will be all right inside of five minutes," said the doctor, brusquely, for like many other people he had never liked the old miser.
