She applied herself instead to the good things that had been provided, and ate away steadily until she had sampled the contents of every plate upon the table, and could superintend the choice of her companions with the wisdom of experience.
The binoxide of commerce, as taken from the mine, is well sampled, powdered, and dried at 100 deg.C. 0.5 gramme of this is taken and placed in a 250 c.c. flask; in analysis the binoxide on the filter, from the treatments noted under separation is thoroughly washed with warm water; it is then washed down in a flask, as above, after breaking the filter paper; sufficient water is added to one-third fill the flask, and about twice the approximate weight of the binoxide in the flask of oxalate of potassa; these are agitated together.
But, by whatever name it was known, Laura's ostracism was complete. She had been sampled, tested, put on one side. And not the softest-hearted could find an excuse for her behaviour. It was but another instance of how misfortune dogs him who is down, that Chinky should choose this very moment to bring further shame upon her.
A sudden swerve to the right brought them into a lighted and populous thoroughfare. Italian restaurants, German delicatessen shops, eating places of a dozen other nationalities lined the pavements on both sides of the street, and, in front of these a high-power motor stood, protected by the watchful eye of an accommodating policeman while the chauffeur sampled Chianti in a wine-shop close by.
"Which now makes us twenty-five and thirty respectively," said Hay, dryly; "you left school before I did." "Yes; I had scarlet fever, and was taken home to be nursed. I never went back, and since then I have never met an old Torrington boy " "Have you not?" asked Hay, eagerly. "No. My parents took me abroad, and I sampled a German university.
We afterward saw Japanese by the score, both men and women, planting a large area of newly plowed land with sugar-cane. After we were rested and refreshed, and had sampled the mangoes that had fallen from a tree near the house, Mr. Aiken took us in his automobile up into the famous Iao Valley, at the mouth of which Wailuku is situated.
We sampled all corners of the village the Serre Cross Roads, where the rain came through the roof and the machine gun bullets through the wall of our crazy billet; the château, with its broken conservatory, its fig tree, Christmas roses, and what we believed to be the only arm-chair in Northern France; 'D' Farm, where Private Meads, our first casualty in the village, was killed by a 4.2-inch just outside the window; and 'B' Farm, with its collection of plates and ornaments amassed on the first morning before most of the village was out of bed.
Barbara, in black, was shopping for Fannie. Johanna was at her side. The day was brisk. Ox-wagons from Clearwater, mule-teams from Blackland, bull-carts from Sandstone, were everywhere. Cotton bales were being tumbled, torn, sampled, and weighed; products of the truck-patch and door-yard, and spoils of the forest, were changing hands.
Then Dan filled in the days, until one evening just at sundown, when we said: "A year this sundown, Dan, since we first sampled one of your dampers," and, chuckling, Dan reviewed the details of that camp, and slipped thence into reviewing education. "Somebody's learned a thing or two since then," he chuckled: "don't notice people catching cows and milking 'em round these parts quite so often."
"I know it is, but we can't help our names." "And that is truly his real name and not Howard Tracy?" Hawkins answered, regretfully: "Yes, it seems a pity." The girl sampled the name musingly, once or twice "Snodgrass. Snodgrass. No, I could not endure that. I could not get used to it. No, I should call him by his first name. What is his first name?"
