This can easily be proved by filling a bathtub full of water, rolling up the sleeves, and then taking a hammer in the hand, immersing it fully, and trying to strike some object held in the other hand. The water hampers the blows. It was this way with Tom and his friends. Nearly half of Koku's great strength was wasted.

I I can't help laughing." "Pray do not stop laughing on my account," she said icily. "I am used to being laughed at since I left America. They laugh at all of us over here." "I dare say they laugh at me, confound them," said I, lugubriously. "They do," said she flatly. Before I could quite recover from this sentient dig, she was ordering me to put the bathtub where it belonged.

This was shaped exactly right for Peter's bathtub, and as luck would have it, it was filled to the brim with water. Such a cool splashing once, twice, thrice, with a long delightful flutter; and then out into the warm sunshine, where the feathers could be puffed out and dried!

"I'll pinch yer black an' blue if yer tell!" whispered Flibbertigibbet, relaxing her hold and in turn raising her hand. "What's wanting now, 208?" "A second helpin', please 'um." The tin round was passed up to the nickel-plated receptacle, that resembled a small bathtub with a cover, and piled anew.

Sitz baths and footbaths are rather superfluous in the ordinary bathroom, but we can spend a hundred dollars for the one and half that for the other without being taken for plutocrats. A very fair bathroom, such as would please most of us, may be equipped on a scale about as follows: Bathtub............................... $36.00

"I have been resting all through the latter part of May in a bathtub, taking three-hour baths every day to keep down the inflammation which threatened me, and following a debilitating diet, which has resulted in what, in my case, amounts to a disease, namely, emptiness of the brain.

In electrical supplies we found the show windows up to the American average, which is high indeed; but in plumbing there was a sag. We discovered that the town had comparatively few sewers. The big, white-tiled bathroom with its carload of modern fixtures which adorns the show window of at least one plumber's shop in every American town we missed. The bathtub is not a household need in France.

I'll be home at six-forty-six." "Good-by, Albert," she said into the crotch of her elbow. He kissed her again on the ear lobe and the nape of her neck. "Good-by, Lilly, and if I were you I'd have a little talk with mother if I found myself not feeling just right. I'm sending Joe up with a pair of granite scrub buckets and that stopper for the bathtub. All right?" "Yes."

After the first year I built on the Elkhorn ranch a long, low ranch house of hewn logs, with a veranda, and with, in addition to the other rooms, a bedroom for myself, and a sitting-room with a big fire-place. I got out a rocking-chair I am very fond of rocking-chairs and enough books to fill two or three shelves, and a rubber bathtub so that I could get a bath.

There was a burst of sizzling and bubbling, and it was quiet again. "The temperature shock weirds out the investment. It changes state to a softer stuff that we can get off the bronze." George poured the water into his bathtub and refilled the bucket with cold water. "Still hot," he said. They drank wine while the flask cooled.
