Also, terms taken from Christian theology have, of necessity, a much fuller meaning to the minds of Christian people who read them than is to be found in the vernacular expression which they represent. Short extracts, given without the context, are proverbially misleading, according to the individual bias of the extractor, either favourable or the reverse.

"What were you going to extract? Teeth?" "And so, when my Indian was swimming, you went through his things! It's the most astounding thing I ever My dear lady, an extractor is used to get the hooks out of fish. It was no cipher, I assure you. I needed an extractor and I ordered it. The cipher you speak of is only a remarkable coincidence." "Huh!" said Tish.

This was the document: 1 Dozen eggs. 20 Yards fishing-line. 1 pkg. Needles anything to sew a button on. 1 doz. A B C bass hooks. 3 lbs. Meat anything so it isn't fish. 1 bot. Ink for fountain pen. 3 Tins sardines. 1 Extractor. Well, I could not make anything of it; but, of course, I have not Tish's mind. Aggie was almost as bad. "What's an extractor?" she asked. "Exactly!" said Tish.

The mercury extractor or amalgam separator is a machine which is very simple in construction, and is stated to be most efficient in extracting quicksilver from amalgam, as it requires but from two to three minutes to extract the bulk of the mercury from one hundred pounds of amalgam, leaving the amalgam drier than when strained in the ordinary way by squeezing through chamois leather or calico.

It is in these combs that the queen lays as many as three thousand eggs some days, and in which the young bees are hatched. They are also used for storing honey for winter use. The extractor has been invented to remove this honey without damaging the comb. The economy of this can readily be seen, as ten pounds of honey can be stored while one pound of comb is being built.

'You can go if you like, or you can get up a tree. "He considered the position a little, and then he very wisely got up a tree. I wish that I had done the same. "Meanwhile I had found my knife, which had an extractor in it, and succeeded after some difficulty in hauling out the case which had so nearly been the cause of my death, and removing the obstruction in the barrel.

When the handle is turned up to unlock the bolt, the hammer is cammed slightly to the rear, by means of oblique bearings on the bolt and hammer, so as to withdraw the point of the striker within the face of the bolt. This oblique cam action also gives great power to the extractor at first starting the empty cartridge case out of the chamber.

The handle is placed at the rear end of the bolt, and bent down toward the stock, so as to allow the trigger to be reached without wholly quitting hold of the bolt. The extractor is so connected with the bolt head as not to share the rotation of the latter when the handle is turned down into the locking position.

This leaves the bees free to gather honey instead of using a portion of their force to build comb, as is necessary when comb honey is desired. The extractor is a round tin can on a central pivot with a revolving mechanism. Into this the full combs of honey are placed and are whirled around, throwing the honey out into the can by centrifugal force.

In the middle of a particularly enthusiastic tribute to the doctor's skill as a fish-bone extractor, Diggs appeared in the doorway, coughed indulgently, and then advanced. "Beg pardon, sir. Mrs. Bingle says the children are getting nervous. They happear to be "
