They have built them by the Corvee. The most convincing evidence for outsiders on this land exploitation and on the harshness of the Corvee comes from Japanese sources. Dr. Yoshino, a professor of the Imperial University of Tokyo, salaried out of the Government Treasury, made a special study of Korea.

"All that in woman is adored In thy fair self I find For the whole sex can but afford The handsome and the kind." The question whether Mr. Tyke should be appointed as salaried chaplain to the hospital was an exciting topic to the Middlemarchers; and Lydgate heard it discussed in a way that threw much light on the power exercised in the town by Mr. Bulstrode.

"The adventure of the button for you or me would not have the same gravity as for this boy; we have no antecedents on which presumptions might be established, but he has. The forty-five francs which constitute an embezzlement for a salaried man will be, certainly, a starting-point for the accusation; one commences by a weakness and finishes by a crime. Do you not hear the advocate-general?

It is, you know, a day of miracles, and even kings have their salaried seers, and take counsel of the spiritual world. More! let us have more!" The circle were amazed; the spirit of superstitious curiosity seized upon them. "Rêve de Noir," said the Duke, "a carafe, and less light." The candelabra became dim.

Not death; fouler, the man alive seeing himself stretched helpless for the altering of his deeds; a coffin carrying him; the fatal whiteheaded sacerdotal official intoning his aims on the march to front, the drear craped files of the liveried, salaried mourners over his failure, trooping at his heels. Frontward was the small lake's grey water, rearward an avenue of limes.

"Evidently you're out for the dust," said Frank. "It takes money to run a team." "Your team is composed of professionals, isn't it?" "They're all salaried players." "Just a bit out of our class. We're straight amateurs." Besides the chauffeur, a rather sad-faced, somber-looking man was sitting in the car. This man now arose with a languid air and stepped out.

Centuries have dimmed the wall-painting, sunshine has faded it, mould has mottled the broad surfaces of red and blue and green, and a later age has done away with the dresses represented; yet, when the frescos in the library of the Cathedral at Siena, for instance, were newly finished, they were the fashion-plates of the year and month, executed by a great artist, it is true, grouped with matchless skill and drawn with supreme mastery of art, but as far from representing the ordinary scenes of daily life as those terrible coloured prints published nowadays for tailors, in which a number of beautiful young gentlemen, in perfectly new clothes, lounge in stage attitudes on the one side, and an equal number of equally beautiful young butlers, coachmen, grooms and pages, in equally perfect liveries, appear to be discussing the æsthetics of an ideal and highly salaried service, at the other end of the same room.

"Why did we give it to Radway at four, then?" "You saved the expense of a salaried overseer, and yourselves some bother," replied Thorpe. "Radway could do it for less, because, for some strange reason which you yourself do not understand, a jobber can always log for less than a company." "We could have done it for four," insisted Daly stubbornly, "but get on. What are you driving at?

Whenever he did so, a number of energetic youths, salaried for the purpose, were distributed among the audience as claqueurs the words actually used for them being perhaps translatable as "boomers" or "rattlers."

"Do you realize that you are refusing to perform your duty?" he said. "I can't take work away from my comrades," replied Pelle, in a low voice. "They may think that very nice of you.
