For the instant the whole interest of the war centred upon De Wet and his dash into the Transvaal. One or two minor events, however, which cannot be fitted into any continuous narrative may be here introduced. One of these was the action at Faber's Put, by which Sir Charles Warren crushed the rebellion in Griqualand.
Faber was in it, and she stopped it outside the gate and made signals. Mrs. Britling, attracted by the catastrophic sounds of Mrs. Faber's vehicle, came out by the front door, and she and her husband both converged upon the caller. Section 2 "I won't come in," cried Mrs. Faber, "but I thought I'd tell you. I've been getting food." "Food?" "Provisions. There's going to be a run on provisions.
Had I been scheming out celestial hieroglyphics their mouths could not have opened wider. As I write now I am asked by a respectable person how many ounces of silver a Johann Faber's B.B. costs. I have told him, and he has retired smiling, evidently thinking that I am romancing. That I impress the crowd everywhere is evident.
She returned the volumes to the shelves, and remembering Mother Mary Hilda's recommendation, she took down a volume of Faber's works. She found his effusive, sentimental style unendurable; and had turned to go to her room for one of the books she had brought with her when her eyes lighted upon Father Dalgairn's Frequent Communion.
Science teaches that a man must not say he knows what he does not know; not that what a man does not know he may say does not exist. I will grant, however, and willingly, that true science is against Faber's idea of other people's idea of a God.
But I will lock the door, to secure time, if any one should. You will get Mrs. Faber's room ready at once, Ruth. I will come and help you. But a spoonful of brandy in hot water first, please. Let me move your chair a little, ma'am out of the draught." Juliet in silence did every thing she was told, received the prescribed antidote from Ruth, and was left alone in the kitchen.
Perhaps the impossibility of regarding her father's church with reverence, laid her mind more open to the cause of her trouble such doubts, namely, as an active intellect, nourished on some of the best books, and disgusted with the weak fervor of others rated high in her hearing, had been suggesting for years before any words of Faber's reached her.
The light rushed again into Faber's eyes, and Juliet repented afresh, for the words had wrought too far in the other direction. "That is," she amended, "if Mr. Faber will condescend to friendship, after having played the tyrant so long." "I can only aspire to it," said the doctor. It sounded mere common compliment, the silliest thing between man and woman, and Mrs.
Yet after all we are just as far away as ever from enabling the young actors at Harvard to give Aristophanes with all the true, subtle intonation and inflection of the Athens of 400 B.C. The instrument is dumb. Ingenuity has been shown also in the invention of "talking-machines," like Faber's, based on the reed organ pipe.
Had he not been duped, sold, married to ? That way madness lay! His pride was bitterly wounded. Would it had been mortally! but pride seems in some natures to thrive upon wounds, as in others does love. Faber's pride grew and grew as he sat and brooded, or, rather, was brooded upon. It would not bear thinking! Indignation and bitterest sense of wrong almost crazed him.
