It may take time for an earthborn saint to become acclimated to the celestial ether, that is, if time can be said to exist for a disembodied spirit.
This, however, can hardly be said of her native population: emigrants from high latitudes, who come after maturity, once acclimated, seem to endure the effects of climate here with more impunity than those native to the soil. The Bayou Plaquemine formerly discharged an immense amount of water into the lakes intervening between the La Fourche and the Teche.
Susan and Palmer congratulated themselves that they had been at the hotel long enough to become acclimated and so could act as if they were unconscious of the sensation they were creating. When they finished dinner, they found all the little tables in the long corridor between the restaurant and the entrance taken by people lingering over coffee to get another and closer view.
The absence of the sun is the hour for pestilence to ride the breeze in our climate, and you cannot claim to be fully acclimated." The autumn progressed, and the rich harvests were being gathered and garnered. This season is the longest and the loveliest of the year in this beautiful country.
As soon as the least thing happens, the wife says: 'I release you. I am going to leave your house. Even among the moujiks this fashion has become acclimated. 'There, she says, 'here are your shirts and drawers. I am going off with Vanka. His hair is curlier than yours. Just go talk with them. And yet the first rule for the wife should be fear."

Orton, this is the friend of whom I spoke, Mr. Haldane." "You have always lived at the North?" asked the physician, looking the young man over with a quick glance. "Yes, sir." "Do you realize the probable consequences of this exposure to one not acclimated?" "Dr. Orton, I am a medical student, and I have come to do my duty, which here will be to carry out strictly your directions.
The fact that seeds can be acclimated, like men and animals, was still in the ether. The Red River Valley is a wonderfully rich district. Louis Agassiz first mapped it and wrote a most interesting essay on it.
