Barton, named at that time Miss Constance Schmidt, the daughter of a Moravian missionary, visited the hospital frequently as an angel of mercy. So far as I was concerned it was a case of love at first sight. She nursed me back to health; and, with the usual ingratitude of man, I married her for her pains. I then gave up the sea after a trip or two, and settled in Montreal.
These facts prove the presence of atropine in datura; but while Planta and Schmidt assert that only this alkaloid is found in the plant, I have proved that the proportion of atropine in it is but small, while its richness in hyoscyamine is great. I think, therefore, that both Planta and Schmidt must have worked with a mixture of atropine and hyoscyamine.
Maybe he is Burke, and has just come out of the hospital." "Most likely he is Schmidt, and adorned himself with the wound in a student duel," said I. "It's too fresh-looking. He must be over thirty," she objected, but at that moment Miss Hassett-Bean loomed into sight; and in the stuffy atmosphere of the tomb felt the need of my arm to keep her from fainting.
The ship Talisman, from New York to the East Indies, we burned. The barque Conrad, fitted up as a Federal cruiser, a tender to a man-of-war, we captured and burned. After these came the Anne F. Schmidt, mentioned before, and the Sea Bride and the Sea Bride you saw us take to-day. The estimated value of these captures is 4,200,000 dollars." The American Consul, Mr.
Let us turn to a more agreeable subject, and illustrate the country-house and the country life of the last age of the Republic by a rapid visit to Cicero's own villas. This has fortunately been made easy for us by the very delightful work of Professor O.E. Schmidt, whose genuine enthusiasm for Cicero took him in person to all these sites, and inspired him to write of them most felicitously.
At these details, Ardan's imagination became unusually excited and of course it was not without some result. It even happened that he hit on an idea that had already suggested itself to Schmidt of Athens. "Why not consider them," he asked, "to be the simple phenomena of vegetation?" "What do you mean?" asked Barbican. "Rows of sugar cane?" suggested M'Nicholl with a snicker.
It is 22 miles in diameter, and has a wall which rises on the W. to a height of nearly 10,000 feet above the floor; on the latter there is a conspicuous central mountain, and on the E. side a crater, and some little hills. Schmidt shows a smaller crater on the W. side, which I have not seen. Adjoining the formation on the W. is a ring- plain of about one-fourth its area, which is a bright object.

'Very good, respected Herr Burgomaster, replied Roller, and then accompanied his little daughter out of the gallery to see her safely started on her homeward way. 'Why, where is Conrad Schmidt loitering? he asked in surprise.
Schmidt looked up at the ceiling as though his eyes might discern a trap-door. "Is Mr. Curtis there now?" "No, sir." "Where is he?" "He went out with a Mr. Devar." "Oh! Do you know where he went to?" Krantz was tempted to prevaricate, but Schmidt was a power in the Central Hotel. "I believe, sir, he is at the Plaza." "A large hotel, near Central Park, is it not?" demanded the Earl eagerly.
It has a large crater on its W. wall, a smaller one on the E., and a third on the N. The floor includes a central mountain, and, according to Schmidt, four craters. He also shows a crater-rill on the W. wall, N. of the large crater thereon. Olbers is the origin of a fine system of light rays.
