Therefore, nature, wise in this as in many other things, has decreased chest vibration as the voice ascends the scale. Above the larynx is the pharynx, a space extending to the base of the skull and opening into the mouth, and higher up connecting with the base of the nose by means of two passages, the posterior nares, or back nasal passages.
The bleeding only ceased when the posterior nares also were plugged." "Dr. T. G. Wright of Plainville, Conn., narrates the case of a young man whom he found in the night, bleeding profusely, and having already lost a large amount of blood. Shortly after plugging both anterior and posterior nares the blood found its way through the lacrimal ducts to the eyes and trickled down the cheeks." "Dr.
On the seventh morning we signed a deed of partnership, for Jim would not accept a dollar of my money otherwise; and having once more engaged myself or that mortal part of me, my purse among the wheels of his machinery, I returned alone to San Francisco and took quarters in the Palace Hotel. The same night I had Nares to dinner.
It was a relief when, with Nares, and a couple of hands, I might drop into the boat and move off at last for the Flying Scud. "She looks kind of pitiful, don't she?" observed the captain, nodding towards the wreck, from which we were separated by some half a mile. "Looks as if she didn't like her berth, and Captain Trent had used her badly.
The want of fresh linen was so pressing, that the sick must not be kept waiting, though it was Sunday. Miss Nares and Miss Flint were in curl-papers, plying their needles. They had been up all night, and were now putting the last stitches to a suit of family mourning, which was to enable the bereaved to attend afternoon church.

"These are five-tael boxes, more than two pounds," said Nares, weighing one in his hand. "Say two hundred and fifty dollars to the mat. Lay into it, boys! We'll make Mr. Dodd a millionnaire before dark."
"I beg your pardon, Loudon," began Jim at last, "but why in snakes did you burn her?" "It was an idea of Nares's," said I. "This is certainly the strangest circumstance of all," observed Mamie. "I must say, Loudon, it does seem kind of unexpected," added Jim. "It seems kind of crazy even. What did you what did Nares expect to gain by burning her?"

"We've been going through the kind of thing that tries a man. We've had the hardest kind of work, we've been badly backed, and now we're badly beaten.
The sun overhead reverberated rays of heat; the staring sand, the glaring lagoon, tortured our eyes; and the birds and the boom of the far-away breakers made a savage symphony. "I don't require to tell you the game's up?" Nares asked. "No," said I. "I was thinking of getting to sea to-morrow," he pursued. "The best thing you can do," said I. "Shall we say Honolulu?" he inquired.
