"I must congratulate you on resurrecting that bit of mahogany," declared the old lady, indicating a table. "I've missed that piece for three administrations. Wherever did you find it?" "Really, I can't remember," fibbed Cora, resolving straightway to banish it. The military secretary had suggested its restoration, and she jumped to the conclusion that he had been inspired by his grandmother.

We will do them over again, resurrecting the sweetheart you saw me mourning so sadly for back on the interior set. They are the scenes in which he asks me to marry him and in which I plight my troth, as the title writer insists upon describing it." "Perhaps that's why Mr. Gibson isn't with us," suggested John. "It may be," she laughed.

Whatever has gone before, whatever is to come in eternity, that particular temple of the soul has been given back to the elements from which it came. Thus, there is a sense of desecration, of a reversal of the everlasting fitness of things, in resurrecting a body from its mother clay. And yet that night, in the Casanova churchyard, I sat quietly by, and watched Alex and Mr.

I've got Cynthia to her father by way of me!" Then the Cup-o'-Cold-Water Lady did a most unaccountable thing she fairly pranced about the room. "I've found it!" she sang; "without resurrecting old Miss Susie May Lanley! What's a stupid marriage certificate compared to God's plain handwriting? I can keep my secret now, Uncle Theodore, until the right time.

Kobbe; "I wanted a full-facer." "Wal, wal, woman, I hain't washed my face off, have I?" said the captain cheerfully, resurrecting his pipe. "Put up them thar' public belayin' pins," he added, referring to the hotel brush and comb, "and don't le's worry 'bout nothin' more, 'long as we're goin' to be baited."
