Ribboned jasper is produced by the hardening of alternate layers of green and chocolate- coloured schist, each stripe faithfully representing the original lines of stratification.

I have ever loved colour, and here was a feast of it hard to equal. There were red coats and gold epaulets, sashes and ribboned orders, the green and red of the chasseurs of Brunswick, blue navy uniforms, the gold lace and glitter of staff-officers, and in and out among them the clouds of floating muslin, gorgeous brocades, flashing silk petticoats, jewels, and streaming ribbons.

Mr Philp yes, it was Mr Philp in black merino frock, Paisley shawl and ribboned cap on which a few puce-coloured poppies nodded Mr Philp, with a handful of knitting, and a ball of worsted trailing at his feet But it is impossible to construct a sentence which would do justice to Mr Philp as he loomed up and swam into ken through 'Bias's awed surmise; and the effort shall be abandoned.

With bright stockings and a little ribboned hat I was no longer Nigel the scholar of the Vale, but Nigel de Bessin, gentleman and courtly soldier.

There were pillars of black basalt and pillars of green and crimson serpentine; and pillars ribboned with red and white and yellow sandstone; and there were blue grottoes and white grottoes, all curtained and draped with seaweeds, purple and crimson, green and brown; and strewn with soft white sand, on which the water babies sleep every night.

The big red man gets a hand over the parson's mouth, and the ribboned man seizes his moment. "They have been endeavoring for hours," he says, "to draw the terrible animals from their dens, but such is their strength and fierceness, that" His voice is drowned.

The ranch house itself stood back where the draw narrowed, but the yellow-brown trail ribboned back from the gate in plain view. Here again Starr was fated to get a glimpse and no more. He focussed his glasses on the main road first; picked up the Medina branch to the gate, followed the trail on up the draw, and again he picked up a man riding a bay horse.

from ribald lips and throats turned brazen with laughter, from singers who toss their hats aloft and roll in their seats; the chorus swells to the accompaniment of a thousand brogans "He used to wear an old gray coat All buttoned down before." A ribboned man in the arena is trying to be heard, and the Latins raise one mighty cry for silence.

An instant the severed ends ribboned aimlessly, then bent, turned down and darted earthward into the welter of clustered summits at the north and swiftly were gone, while down upon the valley fell night. "Good God!" whispered Drake. "It was as though something reached up, broke those rays and drew them down like threads." "I saw it." I struggled with bewilderment. "I saw it.

Indolence is your pleasure, your delight the luxurious dance; you wear sleeved tunics and ribboned turbans. O right Phrygian women, not even Phrygian men! traverse the heights of Dindymus, where the double-mouthed flute breathes familiar music. The drums call you, and the Berecyntian boxwood of the mother of Ida; leave arms to men, and lay down the sword.
