"HERE, Dot, throw the blankets down on that seat," said Don, pointing to a tiny bench next to the boiler. "I don't see's it's any warmer in here than outdoors," grumbled Dot, rubbing her eyes and yawning again. "Soon will be. I haven't looked at the fire, yet," returned Don, as he tried to open the fire-pot door. "Gee! fire's most out!
But t' old 'ooman and I be none the less glad o' thy words, Jack; though the bit and sup that thou had'st here till you went into th' pit and began to pay your way ain't worth the speaking o'. Thou beats me a'together, Jack. When un see's a good pup un looks to his breed, and un finds it pure; but where thou get'st thy points from beats me a'together.
"We can't launch by this light," said Thurstane. "We will sleep here." "It'll be a longish night," commented Glover. "But don't see's we can shorten it by growlin'. When fellahs travel in the bowels 'f th' earth, they've got to follow the customs 'f th' country. Puts me in mind of Jonah in the whale's belly. Putty short tacks, Capm. Nine hours a day won't git us along; any too fast.
"I guess all the barrage we're going to see's grenade practice." "Don't you worry, buddy," said somebody across the room. "You'll see enough of it. This war's going to last damn long...." "Ah'd lak to get in some licks at those Huns tonight; honest to Gawd Ah would, Andy," muttered Chris in a low voice. He felt his muscles contract with a furious irritation.
A black snake kedn't crawl through among 'em 'ithout bein' obsarved." "What are we to do?" asks Hamersley, in a despairing tone. "We kin do nothin' now, 'ceptin' go back an' git our mules. We must move them out o' the way afore sun-up. 'Taint no matter o' use our squattin' hyar. No doubt o' what's been done. The main body's goed below; them we see's only a party left to guard the gap.
See's elimination of irradiative effects by means of daylight measures, executed at Washington in 1901. The visual spectrum of this planet was first examined by Father Secchi in 1869, and later, with more advantages for accuracy, by Huggins, Vogel, and Keeler. It is a very remarkable one.
Combining this result with those of Professor Barnard's and Dr. See's recent measurements of the small telescopic disc of this farthest known planet, it is found that while in mass Neptune equals seventeen, in bulk it is equivalent to forty-nine earths.
I didn't ever work there myself," he added with his customary blunt honesty, "because I was a hoodlum." "Wal, I see ye've growed up ter be a foine lad, jist the same," said Pete consolingly, "'n' mebbe the lad as kin feel the tingles ter see's bruther git licked unfair is as good as that same bruther, whativer!"
Now that is where Lute should have taken the hint and remained silent. At least he should have changed the subject. But he was hot and uncomfortable and, I suspect, his Sunday shoes were tight. He persisted. "Huh!" he sniffed; "I don't see's you've given me no sensible reason for cryin'. If I recollect right you didn't cry at your own weddin'." His wife turned on him.
See's calculations showed it to possess one-fifth the mass of its primary, or rather more than half that of our sun. Yet it gives barely 1/20000th of the sun's light, so that it is still nearer to total obscurity than the dusky satellite of Sirius. The period of forty years assigned to the system by Auwers in 1862 appears to be singularly exact.
