Ah, but you must long for the dear bonnet strings of madame?" Did he? As she spoke Mr. Greyne asked himself the question. Shocked as he was, fatigued by his researches, did he wish that he were back again in Belgrave Square, drinking barley water, pasting notices of his wife's achievements into the new album, listening while she read aloud from the manuscript of her latest novel?
In the afternoon she sat with her sisters, helping them with their dogs, folding the paper into the moulds, pasting it down, or cutting the skins into the requisite sizes. About five, when the children had had their tea, she and her mother went for a short walk.
I know the man, you see." "It was nothing of the sort," replied Miss Sommerton, hotly. "It was a truthful, well-meant letter." "And yet you tore it up?" "But that was the first impulse. The pasting it together was the apology." "And you will not show it to me?" "No, I will not." "Did you answer it?" "I will tell you nothing more about it. I am sorry I spoke of the letter at all.
It is celebrated by racing with long narrow boats shaped to represent dragons and propelled by scores of rowers, pasting of charms on the doors of dwellings, and eating a special kind of rice-cake, with a liquor as a beverage. The fifteenth day of the eighth moon is the Mid-autumn Festival, known by foreigners as All Souls' Day.
It was all I could do to keep from pasting him in the nose, when I first landed on the ground, but I had a part to play, and it would not do to go off half cocked. So I looked sad, pouted my lips, and wondered if he would kiss me, and feel the beard where I had been shaved. "Now, shuck yourself," said he. "Do what? I asked, with apparent alarm. "Peel," said he, as he put his hand on my back,
Let us go back to the brave struggle begun by the women in the packing-plants in the year 1902 to improve their conditions by organizing. For a great many years prior to this, women had been employed in certain branches of the work, such as painting cans and pasting on labels. But towards the close of the nineties the packers began to put women into departments that had always been staffed by men.
Occasionally, also, the better classes embellished their canvas by pasting pictures from Harper's Weekly on them. We had a carpet and a genuine queen's-ware washbowl. Consequently we were hated without reserve by the other tenants of the O'Flannigan "ranch." When we added a painted oilcloth window curtain, we simply took our lives into our own hands.
'Nourhalma' was a 'poor, ill-conceived work, 'an outrage to intellectual perception, 'a good idea, spoilt in the treatment; an amazingly obscure attempt at sublimity' et cetera, . . but there! you can yourself peruse all the criticisms, both favorable and adverse, for I have acted the part of the fond granny to you in the careful cutting out and pasting of everything I could find written concerning you and your work in a book devoted to the purpose, . . and I believe I've missed nothing.
The glass will soon be deeply carved by the action, assuming the appearance which we term "ground." This principle is made use of in the arts. Glass vessels or sheets are prepared for carving by pasting paper cut into figures on their surfaces.
The beaters are made of hard wood with four square sides, are about 3 or 4 inches broad and cut into grooves of different fineness; this makes the Cloth look at first sight as if it was wove with thread, but I believe the principal use of the Groves is to facilitate the beating it out, in the doing of which they often beat holes in it, or one place thinner than another; but this is easily repair'd by pasting on small bits, and this they do in such a manner that the Cloth is not the least injured.
