They came, stared and wondered, and then passed away for others to come in shoals, laughingly, and seeming no longer to harbor the hostile feelings apparent as I entered the town. My shaving magnifier amused them wonderfully. There was an outcry as I entered the room after we had dined, followed by a scream of women in almost hysterical laughter.
It is only as we capture one of the little protean acrobats between our finger-tips and examine him with a magnifier that we can really make "head or tail" of his queer anatomy. Even thus enlarged it is difficult to get entirely rid of the idea of a bird.
This is a squinting magnifier, and if arranged so that with its right half we see the right picture on the slide, and with its left half the left picture, it squints them both inward so that they run together and form a single picture.
Ah! if I could look on society through the spectacles with which the poor hidalgo in 'Gil Blas' looked on his meagre board, spectacles by which cherries appear the size of peaches, and tomtits as large as turkeys! The imagination which is necessary to ambition is a great magnifier."
I went to him, and he told me at once that he had been allowed by Montanaro to copy the Valdez setting and all for the Paris Exhibition. I showed him this, and he claimed it for his own work at once, and pointed out his private mark upon it. You must take your magnifier to find it; a Greek Beta. He also told me that he had sold it to Lady Carwitchet more than a year ago."
It may lead to unpleasantness. M. le Prefet is anxious to avoid complications possibly international." As he spoke, he bent over, and, taking a magnifier from his pocket, examined the lace, which still fluttered where it was caught. "It is fine lace, I think. What say you, M. Floçon? You may be more experienced in such matters."
This showed the course by the compass, and was expressed in degrees, minutes and seconds. The poor reading of a course is one of the frequent faults of new or careless engineers. "Here is a magnifier for the vernier," continued Rutter, just after Tom had started to make his reading.
This is the one; and I have brought the glass with me." Ormsby examined Mrs. Swinton's second forgery under the magnifier, and was puzzled. "The addition has been cleverly made. The writing seems to be the same. Whose handwriting is it not Herresford's?" "It seems to be Mrs. Swinton's. Compare it with these old checks in his pass-book, and you will see if I am not right.
The idea of the Blessed Virgin was as it were magnified in the Church of Rome, as time went on, but so were all the Christian ideas; as that of the Blessed Eucharist. The whole scene of pale, faint, distant Apostolic Christianity is seen in Rome, as through a telescope or magnifier. The harmony of the whole, however, is of course what it was.
"Thank you; I have a pretty good one of my own," Tom answered, diving into one of his pockets and bringing to light a small but powerful reading glass with an aplanatic lens. "You carry a better magnifier than I do," laughed Rutter. "Hazelton, do You carry a pocket glass?" "Yes, sir," nodded Harry "I have one just like Reade's." "Good! I can see that you youngsters believe in good tools."
