Hugo von Mohl applied to the fluid contents of the cell the term "protoplasm," and Max Schultze showed that this protoplasm is really identical in all organisms, plants and animals, also that the cell-wall is frequently absent in many animal tissues and in many unicellular forms, indicating that the protoplasm is the really important substance.

He transferred them to some person in the cab, in accordance with a carefully prearranged plan. That person was a woman!" "A woman!" Mr. Latham repeated, as if startled. "Dere iss alvays wimmins in id," remarked Mr. Schultze philosophically. "Go on." Mr.

"It is either the Koh-i-noor or an exact duplicate," said Mr. Czenki. "It is the Koh-i-noor," repeated Mr. Cawthorne doggedly. "Id seems to me," interposed Mr. Schultze, "dat if der Koh-i-noor vas missing somebody would haf heard, ain'd id? I haf nod heard. Mr. Czenki made a misdake der oder day maybe you make id to-day?" "You have made a mistake, I assure you, Mr. Cawthorne," remarked Mr.

The diamond resulting is worth at least a million when broken up for cutting, sometimes even two millions. That is all, I think." There was a long, awed silence.

"A duplicate also," and Mr. Wynne glanced at Mr. Cawthorne. "It is reasonably certain that you would have heard of that if it had disappeared from the Louvre." He turned to Mr. Schultze again.

It was nearly 11 o'clock when the Schultze steamed away from Governor's Island wharf and whistled and rattled down the Bay to await the arrival of the Minnesota, which lay at anchor during the forenoon near Pier 46, North River, and did not sail until some minutes after 12 o'clock.
