A square meter of lead of the thickness of 0.001 meter weighs about 11 kilos. As both surfaces of the lead are utilized, their weight is reduced to 5½ kilos. A No. 10 therefore requires 55 kilos. of useful lead.
They were bringing, in their pockets, in their shirts, some forty kilos of copper. They made all this fall like rain on the antique granite of the benches, at the feet of the amused girls, asking them to keep and count it for them; then, after wiping their foreheads and puffing a little, they began to play and to jump, being light now and lighter than ordinarily, their overload being disposed of.
Thrown into the sea, the suckerfish immediately began to play their roles, going and fastening themselves onto the breastplates of the turtles. Their tenacity was so great, they would rip apart rather than let go. They were hauled in, still sticking to the turtles that came aboard with them. In this way we caught several loggerheads, reptiles a meter wide and weighing 200 kilos.
Farid said seriously. "You have saved us from possible embarrassment. It would be useless to give him a pyramid when his weight limit is thirty kilos, as we call sixty-six pounds." Rick chuckled. One reason he so enjoyed his association with scientists was the dry sense of humor most of them seemed to share.
"And would you have worked quite so enthusiastically for me," queried the false one archly, "if I had told you everything?" I groaned. Perhaps she was right. I don't know. I took the thousand francs and never saw M. and Mme. Cazalès again. But I met Ma'ame Dupont by accident soon after. She has left Mr. Farewell's service. She still weighs one hundred kilos. I often call on her of an evening.
A few days later I had orders to report back to Divisional Headquarters, about thirty kilos behind the line. He told me to report to billet No. 78 for quarters and rations. It was about eight o'clock at night and I was tired and soon fell asleep in the straw of the billet. It was a miserable night outside, cold, and a drizzly rain was falling.
Thane's forged Onzarian passport was stamped "duellist priority" and that was that. Astrid came through as readily as his second. And the Third, with another junior officer, was just behind them. The four of them sat side by side without a word as their automatic anti-grav taxi took them the ten kilos from the port to Kadenar City, and then beyond.
"They cannot be treated here, it's impossible. I've never seen such a sight." I left him and went into the house where the cyclist C.O. had made his temporary headquarters. "I want to get on further, is there any other village near by?" "Yes," he said, "there is Haucourt, but I believe Bosche is in part of it, or he was this morning. It's about two kilos from here.
It is all a question of roads, but the filovia can carry 400 kilos, and any gun under that weight can get up to a peak by way of the air. "It is all very marvelous and very perfect, and the Italians are also adepts at trench building, and make them most artistically.
Six kilos of lupuline, which included a large proportion of sand, furnished 400 grammes of crude hop-bitter acid. The first experiments in crystallization with petroleum ether gave poor results; it is difficult to produce the acid pure in large quantities by this process, as a small quantity of the above substance obstinately clings to it, and it readily assumes a non-crystallizable form.
