Well, you understand I'm on the job now; I've accepted the offer." "Ye-es," reluctantly admitted Ashton. "Not that I see the use. There's no need for another engineer." "That's no lie. One engineer is enough," said Blake dryly. "You sure proved yourself one when you planned this little old cantilever. However, I'm short of cash. I'll hang around and do what I can.
The wood framework of the lower story was black and varnished; the upper story was brown and not varnished; carved figures of dragons, griffins, satyrs, and mermaids swarmed over the front; an ape stealing apples was the subject of this cantilever, a man undressing of that. These figures were cloaked with little cobwebs which waved in the breeze, so that each figure seemed alive.
The two best German commercial machines, the Junkers and the Fokker, have a comparatively low horse-power and a low fuel load, but greater attention has been paid to the design of the machines, which are monoplanes with cantilever wings, offering less resistance to the air than our biplanes.
They are imitative. They are not developing anything great of their own in their own country. They are spreading all over the world and carrying home sewing machines and threshing machines and automobiles and cantilever bridges and submarines and aeroplanes anything from eggbeaters to telescopes. They are not creating one single thing.
I order you never to speak to such a such a' various vain repetitions 'again, and and and I order you never to look at him! 'Listen to me, papa. I will promise you never to speak to Paul Lessingham again, if you will promise me never to speak to Lord Cantilever again, or to recognise him if you meet him in the street. 'You should have seen how papa glared.
From this point the outer arm of the cantilever extended far out over the broad chasm of the strait, where, a hundred and fifty feet beneath its unfloored level, the broken ice from the upper lake crashed and thundered on its wild passage of the strait. Blake looked down carelessly into the abyss of grinding, hurtling ice cakes.
And with the change came the bridging-over period the kind of cantilever which hope thrusts out from one side of the bank of the swift-flowing stream of adversity in the belief that somebody on the other side of the chasm will build the other half, and the two form a highway leading to a change of scene and renewed prosperity. The hospitable Collector continued to be hospitable.
"F. B. Morse, inventor of the telegraph, lived at Locust Grove, two miles below the city, and in the process of his experiments built wires into Poughkeepsie two years before they were extended to New York City." Just north of the city the wonderful cantilever bridge, six thousand seven hundred and thirty-eight feet in length and two hundred and twelve feet in height, spans the Hudson.
Then he asked me whether it was a suspension bridge or a cantilever. Of course I didn't know; I am not an engineer." "You are so tactlessly, needlessly candid," I expostulated. "Why didn't you say boldly that the Brooklyn Bridge is a wooden cantilever, with gutta-percha braces? He didn't know, or he wouldn't have asked you.
Leslie irritably. "My first plan was to send Blake to Michamac at once." "Lord! With one cantilever finished and the other out to the central span if it's Tom's bridge, he'd recognize it as quick as his plans. And if he did well, I'd not answer for what would happen to that damn thief." "H'm perhaps you're right," considered Mr. Leslie.
