Have you been spraying it around?" "I did n't know it was kerosene," answered Polly meekly. "I s'posed it was the resodarizer " "Deoderizer, child!" "Oh, yes, I get it twisted! It's that kind that smells so nice."
Norton took the praise with evident satisfaction, and after a moment excused himself, saying that he had some work to do over in the Museum. He had no sooner gone than Kennedy took from a drawer a little packet of powder and an atomizer full of liquid, which he dropped into his pocket.
"Does your throat hurt you much, Daddy?" asked Ruth, as she noticed her father wrapping a silk handkerchief closer about his neck. "Just a little; I think it is the unusual cold," he replied. "But I do not mind it. The air is sharper here than in New York; but it is drier. Perhaps it may do me good. I think I will use my spray," and he got out his atomizer.
This individual passed up and down the road near the mill and also came down to the water's edge, to gaze at the footpath on the other side of the river. The man had the mastiff Queen with him and the dog came within a hundred feet of where Adam Adams was in hiding. Quickly the detective pulled a large atomizer from his pocket.
He and Mason had run across it unpleasantly, once upon a time, in Teheran. He was not familiar with the chemistry of the concoction. He corked the bottle tightly. Forbes came in groggily. "Well!

Really, contrary to my own experience and sudden cure, one might think that such an oleaginous stream of talk, if directed in atomizer fashion against the nostrils of the listener, would serve as a healing emulsion for the complaint I then suffered with.
"Boss," he said, "go ahead if it'll ease you up any, but you might as well try to fight a hydrophobia skunk with a perfume atomizer as to try them high-brow methods on Fleckenstein." Jim laughed. "Well, do you know of a better method, Murphy?" "Yes, the good, old-fashioned way of putting up more whisky, more money and more free rides than the other fellow does."
May not the French Government deliberately have allowed them to escape, after through its incomparable spy system learning that The Barber and his young friend were about to attempt the life of the Surveillant with an atomizer brim-full of T.N.T.? Nothing could after all be more highly probable.
A few nights later he began another collection, finding a lot of new material among other things a box with old atomizer bulbs, four of which bulbs he arranged here and there, in the row a motley array. What is his object? I confess I do not know. No one has seen him do it, as he works at night, but there is little doubt that it is his work.
