Meantime, I went diligently to work to read up and find out what this much-talked-of mountain-climbing was like, and how one should go about it for in these matters I was ignorant. I opened Mr. It began: "It is very difficult to free the mind from excitement on the evening before a grand expedition "
It was the first time that they had been round her neck since the occasion in respect to which Sir Florian had placed them in her hands, and it had not been without much screwing up of her courage that she had resolved to appear on this occasion with the much-talked-of ornament upon her person.
At any rate, with the consciousness that he was about to come face to face with the much-talked-of boycott, Harold's spirits rose, and as he read Polly Connolly's message they rose still higher. He was a lively young fellow, and fond of excitement. And at one time, as he recalled with a smile and a sigh, he had been almost fond of Polly Connolly.
The next day a schooner hove to off a Japanese fishing village, sent ashore four sailors and a little midshipman, and sailed away. These men did not talk English, but they had money and quickly made their way to Yokohama. From that day the Japanese village folk never heard anything more about them, and they are still a much-talked-of mystery.
Thousands of persons have been led into a clearer understanding of His personality and mission, and into intimate relationship with Himself. And yet, may I say frankly, that I read much and listened to much without being able to get a simple workable understanding of how I was to receive the much-talked-of baptism of power.

The other main peaks of the Sierra Nevadas exceed 13,000 feet in altitude. The peaks nearest Reno are: Mount Rose and Peavin Mountain, both of which can be seen from any part of the City of Reno. In this setting nestles our much-talked-of "Gem City of Nevada" the city of heart-throbs and dreams!
Such a quantity of men, such a quantity of women. They flowed past her like a stream, and she was carried with them. It was like a corso there what were they all seeking? So this was Berlin's much-talked-of and amusing life at night? It was awful, oh, unspeakably horrible. Suddenly Käte saw everything from one point of view only. Hitherto she had been blind, as unsuspicious as a child.
A pile of "barras de plata" would be to his eyes more interesting than a whole country covered with black tulips and blue dahlias. Not so his fair daughter Catalina. Her taste was both elevated and refined. The thought of wealth, the pride of riches, never entered her mind. She would willingly have surrendered all her much-talked-of inheritance to have shared the humble rancho of him she loved.
At the same time the clatter of hoofs became audible from the road behind the inn. Haschim turned round and was aware of torchbearers running ahead of a chariot. "The sick man has come so far by water," said the Arab, "and now, he is to be driven home. Strange! this is the second time to-day that I have met his much-talked-of son!" The governor's pleasure-barge was nearing the palm-grove.
May this little book, in a way, serve to introduce the West to the East. Reno and her people cannot be spoken of as typical of other Western towns and people, as the residents of this much-talked-of "big little city" are subject to conditions which do not exist in any other town in the country.
