But alas, that in so many instances, these divine organs should be mere lenses inserted into the socket, as glasses in spectacle rims. But my Islander had a soul in his eye; looking out upon you there, like somebody in him. What an eye, to be sure! At times, brilliantly changeful as opal; in anger, glowing like steel at white heat. Belisarius, be it remembered, had but very recently lost an arm.

'A letter any time addressed c/o The Royal Automobile Club, Pall Mall, will find me. As ever, your old chum, The writer addressed an envelope, inserted the letter, sealed and stamped it, then yawned lazily.

This treatment does not cure a toothache, and may lead to an injury to the delicate parts of the ear. A piece of absorbent cotton, carefully inserted into the ear, may be worn out of doors, when the cold air causes pain, but should be removed on coming into the house. Frequent bathing in the cold water of ponds and rivers is liable to injure both the ears and the general health.

Superconstructive features. In reviewing the superconstructive decorative features in the preceding section I classified them somewhat closely by method of execution or application to the fabric, as stitched, inserted, drawn, cut, applied, and appended. It will be seen that, although these devices are to a great extent of the nature of needlework, all cannot be classed under this head.

Cradock, long prosings of Sir John Hawkins, and connecting observations by Mr. Croker himself, inserted into the midst of Boswell's text. The Life of Johnson is assuredly a great, a very great work.

His geographical works, his papers on modern discoveries, inserted in the reports of the Society, and his world-wide correspondence, gave him a most distinguished place among the LITERATI of France. Lord Glenarvan could not but welcome such a guest, and shook hands cordially. "And now that our introductions are over," he added, "you will allow me, Monsieur Paganel, to ask you a question?"
