"I think Del Pinzo an' his crowd have been waitin' for just such a chance as this. They'd ask nothin' better than t' have us rush 'em, an' then they'd have a good excuse for sayin', afterward, that they popped us off in self-defense." "Snake's right!" declared Yellin' Kid, modulating his voice somewhat. "We'd better play this hand cautious like."
This device is built on exactly the same principle as the telephone induction coil just described but it is more effective because it is designed especially for modulating the oscillations set up by vacuum tube transmitters. As with the telephone induction coil, the microphone transmitter is connected in series with the primary coil and a 6 volt dry or storage battery.
He finished, hesitatingly, "I guess the English are kinda hard to get acquainted with." "Lonely, eh?" she mused, abrupt and bluffly kind as a man, for all her modulating woman's voice. "You don't know any of the people here in the house?" "No'm. Say, I guess we got rooms next to each other." "How romantic!" she mocked. "Wrenn's my name; William Wrenn.
With no appearance of fear or concern, he stood before them, and bending his energies to the great task imposed upon him, he struck the hollow duck so melodiously that the note of expectancy vibrated into the farthest confines of the crowd. Then modulating his voice in unison Kiau Sun began to chant.
It does at first appear, that an astronomer rapt in abstraction, while he gazes on a star, must feel a more exquisite delight than a farmer who is conducting his team; or a poet experience a higher gratification in modulating verses than a trader in arranging sums.

The scope of the higher drama is to represent life, not everyday life, it is true, but life lifted above the plane of bread-and-butter associations, by nobler reaches of language, by the influence at once inspiring and modulating of verse, by an intenser play of passion condensing that misty mixture of feeling and reflection which makes the ordinary atmosphere of existence into flashes of thought and phrase whose brief, but terrible, illumination prints the outworn landscape of every-day upon our brains, with its little motives and mean results, in lines of tell-tale fire.
One form of these, known as Venetian blinds, consisting of parallel wooden slats, strung on tapes, is coming again into vogue. They are cheaper than the usual sort of blinds, and are very durable as well as artistic. After all, however, shades are the most practical form of modulating the entrance of light into a house.
"I mean, sir," I replied, "that I thought I caught, a moment ago, a sound like that of ah! did you hear that, then, sir?" as a voice, uttering some words of command, apparently in the Spanish language, came floating to us, faint but clear, across the invisible water upon which the Psyche lay rolling almost imperceptibly. "Ay, I did," answered Mr Perry, modulating his voice still further.
The ladies visibly dallied over their tea-cups to listen to him; the charm of having them all to himself, and of holding them in interested entertainment by his discourse these ladies of supremely refined associations and position seemed to provide an inspiration of its own. He could hear that his voice was automatically modulating itself to their critical ears.
If things are cut off, and kept out of sight, or never mentioned before her, she may behave very well; not otherwise." "Good-by, Miss Ruth, and Sally, good-by," modulating my voice to accents of grief, and making a "cheese." They retreated with a less staid pace than usual, and I sought Aunt Mercy, who was preparing the Sunday's dinner.
