"When Ella entered the little street, she saw no one till she came opposite the Lion d'Or, or Golden Lion, the house of Madame Kamp, and there she saw Heister, seated in the porch, knitting herself a petticoat of dyed wool in long stripes of various colours, with needles longer than her arm.
Flajani speaks of a case in which a child was delivered at the death of its mother, and some of the older Italian writers discuss the advisability of the operation in the moribund state before death actually ensues. Heister writes of the delivery of the child after the death of the mother by opening the abdomen and uterus. Harris relates several interesting examples.
But is she not a nice little creature, Madame Kamp, and a merry one too? "'Yes, to be sure, replied Heister; 'but about the net and the fish what could the little one mean? "'Who heard her talk of them? asked Jacques. 'Ask those who heard her, madame. They ought to be able to tell you more about it. But I must wish you good evening, as I am in haste to go to the pastor's.
"'I know this, replied Ella, calmly, 'that I do firmly believe that my father never was so short of money as he is now: and this reminds me I must not linger, as I promised Madame Eversil a portion of her linen to-day: so good-evening, madame. "Heister looked after Ella as she walked away, and muttered: "'The saucy cunning girl! but I am not deceived; I can trust Father St.

"'Where where, cried Meeta, 'could you have heard that? for grandmother was so very particular in making us promise not to mention it.
"In the evening, however, she made up her mind to climb the hill as far as the cascade, hoping there to meet one or two of the children standing about the place. "It was hot work for Heister to make her way up the hill so far, but what will not curious people do to satisfy their curiosity?
"We must now turn, a little while, from the quiet, happy family in Martin Stolberg's cottage to Heister Kamp. What Father St. Goar had told her about Stolberg's children having found something curious near the waterfall had worked in her mind for above a week, for so long it was since Margot had found the purse; and she had watched for some of the children passing by her door every day since.
He dare not let the Princess go. We know it. General Heister, the Governor of Innspruck, is under pain of death to hold her safe." "But, sir, would the world stop if General Heister died?" "A German scaffold if you fail." "In the matter of scaffolds I have no leaning towards any one nationality." The Cardinal smiled. He liked a man of spirit, though he might think him absurd.
Probably the most curious anomaly of teeth is that in which they are found in other than normal positions. Albinus speaks of teeth in the nose and orbit; Borellus, in the palate; Fabricius Hildanus, under the tongue; Schenck, from the palate; and there are many similar modern records. Heister in 1743 wrote a dissertation on extraoral teeth. The following is a recent quotation:
