"I'll show you to your room now, if you like," she added, rising, "and try to behave myself better during the rest of your visit." "Apologies are quite uncalled for," returned Ella lightly, as they went up-stairs together. "I have always had a good time at Ion, and don't believe this is going to be an exception to the general rule.
While his stunted heroes or heroines, such as Menelaus in the -Helena-, Andromache, Electra as a poor peasant's wife, the sick and ruined merchant Telephus, are repulsive or ridiculous and ordinarily both, the pieces, on the other hand, which keep more to the atmosphere of common reality and exchange the character of tragedy for that of the touching family-piece or that almost of sentimental comedy, such as the -Iphigenia in Aulis-, the -Ion-, the -Alcestis-, produce perhaps the most pleasing effect of all his numerous works.
There was a gathering of friends and relatives on the Dolphin that evening: all from Pleasant Plains were there; Chester and Frank Dinsmore also and the Ion family.

We had been listening to the learned Hallam, and the sparkling Moore, to the classic and fluent author of "Ion," and to the "Bard of Hope," to the historic and theologic diplomate from Prussia, and to the stately representative of the Czar.
Then the Queen asked Ion of his estate, and heard from him that the priestess of Apollo had brought him up, having found him laid at the door of the temple.

"Oh, I love you already," she sobbed. Mrs. Dinsmore next embraced the little bride with a kind, "Welcome to Ion, my dear." Then Mr.
A radioactive body is composed of atoms which have little stability, and are able to detach themselves spontaneously from the parent substance, and at the same time to divide themselves into two essential component parts, the negative electron and its residue the positive ion.
