One of these curious French ladders, narrow at the top, splayed out at the base, was quickly leaned against the car, and the detective ran up, using his magnifier as he climbed. "There is more here, much more, and something like yes, beyond question it is the print of two hands upon the roof. It was here she climbed." "No doubt. I can see it now exactly.
ARABELLA. It was, Signora but let us retire to another apartment. LEONORA. You change color, Arabella you are false. ROSA. Oh, jealousy! thou magnifier of trifles! When he was still Fiesco; when in the orange-grove, where we damsels walked, I saw him a blooming Apollo, blending the manly beauty of Antinous!
The verification of the exact order of threading occupied an hour or two, working with a magnifier, my wife and Mr. Mace assisting. When recorded, the gold was put in the scales and weighed against sovereigns before the workman, who saw everything. Rather more than the value of gold was given to the men, and thus we ensured their good-will and honesty for the future."
"The natural SCALE of each has been pasted on to the drawing, and when remarkable, both from the back and sides of the fish, which I considered a more desirable plan than giving imitations, that could hardly, in objects so minute, without the aid of a powerful magnifier, be depended on.

"I promised you should see the Valdez sapphire. Look there!" The Valdez sapphire! A great big shining lump of blue crystal flawless and of perfect color that was all. I took it up, breathed on it, drew out my magnifier, looked at it in one light and another. What was wrong with it? I could not say. Nine experts out of ten would undoubtedly have pronounced the stone genuine.
