"I guess you'd better get out of Marseilles before Tough Bill comes out of hospital," he said to Strickland, when they had got back to the Chink's Head and were cleaning themselves. "This beats cock-fighting," said Strickland. I could see his sardonic smile. Captain Nichols was anxious. He knew Tough Bill's vindictiveness.
Promise me, my son, on the blessed crucifix, that you will not escape. You must not aid the American troops in any way; on this hangs your life." These words show that under the priest's frock beats yet the gallant heart of the French gentleman. Maxima solemnly promises. The good father sits under the vines, a happy man. Day by day the new friends stroll by the lake.
But I confess, we're sort of curious to know what the 'Corkis' part of the invitation means. Clackett, he says he guesses Katy meant 'caucus, but that don't throw no more light on the matter, if it does. What on earth a lot of young ones want with a 'caucus, beats me. But here we are, and My! Isn't it pretty?" Pretty it was, and far, far more than pretty.
"I never dreamed it would be like this!" cried Dave Darrin, in ecstasy. "Fellows, I don't believe there is any fun in the world equal to canoeing in a real canoe." "It beats all the little cedar contraptions that some folks call canoes!" Tom Reade declared. "I am almost beginning to think," announced Danny Grin, "that I'd rather go on canoeing than go home for my dinner."

He walked up and down his room breathing quick and hard. "I shall risk my neck, I know; but it won't be the first time, and I never will have such a reason again. She beats anything I ever saw. I've got to have the money to suit such a woman. . . . I'm almost sorry for Sam but the Lord made some men to be other men's fools. . . ."
I wonder if that man beats his wife, or if he just converses with her as he does with a recreant fare! Anyway, I loved him. But if I have discovered nothing else in the brief time since I left my native land, it is worth while to realize the truth of all the poetry and song written on foreign shores about home.
The Duke of Brunswick, idling away precious time when he invaded France at the outbreak of the first Revolution, is an example of the contrary. Activity beats about a cover like an untrained dog, never lighting on the covey. Energy goes straight to the bird at once and captures it."
Protect and bless her when this wasting, broken heart no longer beats; when the frail shield of a mother's love is taken from her, and she is left alone alone alone. Oh! my God, have pity have pity! Forsake her not!" The paper was blistered with the tears of the writer. I dropped it on the grave, unable to go on.
But if you adjust one of the forks so that it will vibrate 256 times a second and the other fork so that it will vibrate 260 times a second then there will be a phase difference between the two sets of waves and the latter will augment each other 4 times every second and you will hear these rising and falling sounds as beats.
