That is of far greater joy, and of much great educational value, since by this process the child cooperates with you instead of having all the work done for him. Queyrat, in his works on "La Logique chez l'Enfant," quotes Madame Necker de Saussure: "To children and animals actual objects present themselves, not the terms of their manifestations.
And, no doubt Mr. De Saussure would have liked the neighbourhood of Magnolia, and to add its harvest to his own. And all the while I belonged to Mr. Thorold, and nobody else could have me. My thoughts came back to that refrain with a strong sense of pain and gladness. However, the gladness was the strongest. How lovely the lake was, with its sunlit hills!
"Not for himself. For some other?" "Yes " I whispered. "For whom?" he said abruptly. And then as I hesitated, "For one of those two?" "What two?" "De Saussure or Marshall?" "Oh, no, papa!" "Your cousin Gary?" "Oh, no, papa!" "Have I lost you, Daisy?" he said then in a different tone, gentle and lingering and full of regret. My breath was gone; I threw my arms around his neck.
"Liking will come fast enough, Daisy; a girl like you does not think she can like anybody but her father and mother; she finds out her mistake in time. So will you. I will decide for you, if you have no choice. Charles De Saussure is my friend, and I think he is most of a man of the two. I will tell Charles that you will make him happy by and by." "No, mamma, I will not. Do not tell him so."
De Saussure is going soon to leave us and return home you know for what. Before he goes, he desires the satisfaction of kissing your hand. I suppose he would have liked a little more, but I have only promised the hand." "I have explained myself to Mr. De Saussure, mamma; he is under no mistake." "So I have told him.
Henri de Saussure, "Observations sur les moeurs de divers oiseaux du Mexique," Arch. Sci. phys. et natur., 1859, pp. 21-41. The provisions collected by these two birds reveal a remarkable fact. They possess indeed two distinct diets; they do not preserve for the period of famine the overplus of the foods which they consume in the period of abundance.
In a book was a record of all the ascents which have ever been made, beginning with Nos. 1 and 2 being those of Jacques Balmat and De Saussure, in 1787, and ending with No. 685, which wasn't cold yet.
There was a statue to him, and another to De Saussure, in the hall of our hotel, and a metal plate on the door of a room upstairs bore an inscription to the effect that that room had been occupied by Albert Smith. Balmat and De Saussure discovered Mont Blanc so to speak but it was Smith who made it a paying property.
To what action of light is this phenomenon due? Bouguer is of opinion that it must be attributed to the passage of light through icy particles. Such, also, is the opinion of De Saussure, Scoresby, and other meteorologists. In regard to the mountains, as we cannot assure ourselves directly of the fact by entering the clouds, we are reduced to conjecture.
M. de Saussure has no idea of strata formed at the bottom of the sea, being afterwards softened by means of heat and fusion.
