Rhoda looked up at DeWitt anxiously. "You are very tired and worn, John," she said. "And you!" cried the man, looking down at the girl with the swinging, tireless stride.

What do you suppose they are doing to each other?

The life-pulse in metals is seriously harmed or even extinguished through the application of electric currents or heavy pressure." I looked around the room at the numerous inventions, eloquent testimony of a tireless ingenuity. "Sir, it is lamentable that mass agricultural development is not speeded by fuller use of your marvelous mechanisms.

But those were very different creatures from the two huge, starving, tireless animals that hour after hour loped behind the cutter in which I sat with another woman, who, throughout the whole experience, never lost her head nor her control of our frantic horses.

Some Pequots, pursued by the English, ran down this neck of land, hoping that their tireless enemies would miss their track and pass by. But Uncas, with Indian sagacity, led the party on the trail. The Pequots, finding their foes upon them, plunged into the water and swam across the narrow mouth of the harbor.
