But instead of arriving there, they collided with a forearm which had about the resiliency of a two-foot stone-wall. Simultaneously, Peter released his famous left-hook had of the Bronx Barman at ten dollars a lesson and the fight was over. Mr. Hackley's head struck first, and struck passionately; men picked him up and bore him limply from the field.

"The membranes enveloping the nervous substance undergo thickening; the blood-vessels are subjected to change of structure, by which their resistance and resiliency is impaired; and the true nervous matter is sometimes modified, by softening or shrinking of its texture, by degeneration of its cellular structure or by interposition of fatty particles.

The day cannot go far wrong with this simple prayer clinging in his memory. It permeates the perplexities of the day, gives resiliency to his spirit, and encourages and reënforces all the noble impulses that come into his consciousness. Wherever he goes and whatever he is doing he feels that Tiny Tim is present to bestow his childish benediction.

Perhaps such names are too harsh for those who overload the moral backbone of an inexperienced subordinate. Surely the fault is not all on one side. While there are no formulas to calculate the resiliency of human character, we may demand the same prudence on the part of the officers of financial institutions as we do from nursemaids, lumbermen and manufacturers of explosives.

"But I must confess that I did nothing more wonderful than to walk up to one of the bazaars and buy everything that I wanted." "That," Dr. Blake said mentally, "is a lie."

So far as resiliency is concerned, there is no comparison between the French double-tube tire and the heavy American single tube, the former is far ahead, and is, of course, easily repaired on the road, but it does not seem to stand the severe wear of American roads, and it is very easily punctured.

She suffered him to kiss her on the cheek as she turned her face from him. "Have it your own way," she said, limp with a sudden sense of futility and as if all the reflex resiliency had oozed out of her. "We're all right together, Lilly. Just don't you worry your head. We'll get adjusted in no time. You and and mother talk things over to-morrow. I've been a thick-headed old fool. Pshaw! I Pshaw!"

Three hours were consumed in cooking, repairing harnesses, and making and breaking camp, and the remaining nine hours dogs and men slept as if dead. The iron strength of Kama broke.
