But when they all reached the sand-bank, where were the "cave-dwellers"? They had burrowed in the sand till completely out of sight! "Hello! Where are you"? screamed Jimmy. There was no answer. In enlarging the cave they had loosened the very dry earth, and thus caused the roof over their heads to fall in upon them, actually burying them as far as their arm-pits!
Promote the warmth of the body by the application of hot flannels, bottles or bladders of hot water, heated bricks, etcetera, to the pit of the stomach, the arm-pits, between the thighs, and to the soles of the feet. If the patient has been carried to a house after respiration has been restored, be careful to let the air play freely about the room.
The breeches were certainly rather wrinkly above the knees, and the jacket was somewhat uncomfortably tight across the chest when buttoned over; it also pinched me a good deal under the arm-pits, whilst the sleeves exhibited a trifle too much some six inches or so of my wristbands and shirt-sleeves; and when I looked at myself in the glass I found that there was a well-defined ridge of loose cloth running across the back from shoulder to shoulder.
Starting as if from a trance, Regnar extended the long boat-hook and gently drew the body to the shore, where La Salle, making a loop of the rope they carried, dropped it over the head and shoulders, and drawing it tightly under the arm-pits, gave one end to Regnar. "His pockets are turned inside out," said La Salle. "The man has been murdered," almost whispered the lad.
She said, "And you would, too ." She spoke in wonder, for Patricia had glimpsed an unguessed Rudolph Musgrave. His hands went under her arm-pits and he lifted her like a feather. He held her thus at arm's length. "You you adorable whirligig!" he laughed. "I am a stronger animal than you. It would be as easy for me to murder you as it would be for you to kill one of those flies on the window-pane.
There was small resemblance between the optimist who had assured Wentz so confidently that everything would be all right and the perspiring and all but exhausted Neifkins who wallowed in snow to his arm-pits in an effort to break trail for the four-horse team whose driver was displaying increasing reluctance to go on with the load of baled hay stalled some mile and a half from town.
"My comrades, hoping to reach an old clearance of some acres, about half a mile in advance, in spite of all entreaties crossed the stream, and were soon lost to my view never more to be seen alive by me. "I waded down the stream, till I found a place where the water was up to my arm-pits, and the bank of the river rose about six feet over my head.
But what with this big box strapped to my shoulders, and the two big bottles dangling close up under my arm-pits, I must have looked only there was nobody to look at me nothing less than a figure of fun.
Pascualet came in, the little devil, swallowed up in a suit of yellow baize, barefoot, to be more in character, and with a sash that passed almost under his arm-pits and made his blouse bulge out like a balloon.
Dimly, down at the bottom, he could make out Kamanako, standing in slimy water that reached nearly up to his arm-pits. "Is the water fine, eh?" Jack called down, laughingly. "I show you some time!" came the answer, in smothered rage. "You showed me Japanese jiu-jitsu," mocked Benson "so I had to do something to return your courtesy. What I have just shown you is called American strategy!"
