He prowled as a stray cat entering a strange place might have done, for if Ricardo had not Wang's miraculous gift of materializing and vanishing, rather than coming and going, he could be nearly as noiseless in his less elusive movements.
Such conservatives probably have prevented many improvements from materializing, and probably they have also saved the world from many futile creations which would only have wasted time and material.
If this is atheism, call three, instead of two of the trio, atheists, and it will probably come nearer the truth. I am not disposed to deny the occasional injurious effect of the materializing influences to which the physician is subjected. A spiritual guild is absolutely necessary to keep him, to keep us all, from becoming the "fingering slaves" that Wordsworth treats with such shrivelling scorn.
It is owing to this conjunction of love for and cultivation of art, and the habit of materializing what we wish, that we have so many thoroughly successful interiors, which have been accomplished almost without aid from professional artists. It is these, instead of the smaller number of costly interiors, which give the reputation of artistic merit to our homes.

"I will do more, Jacqueline. I will destroy it utterly." "Madame!" "I have a great idea." "Madame!" "If a spirit no matter how evil could be materialized, it would cease to affect the imagination. I shall materialize mine!" "Madame!" "Yes; I have arrived at a conclusion. I shall render my evil spirit powerless by materializing it.
Almost every Medium keeps an Indian 'brave' in her cohort of Spirits; in fact, there is no Cabinet, howe'er so ill attended, but has some Indian there. It is strange, too, that, as far as I know, departed black men, who might be supposed to be quite as unsophisticated as departed red men, have hitherto developed no such materializing proclivities.
But all difficulty vanishes as soon as 'the river is crossed.
