The effort to grasp the object clearly works as a suggestion to accept that which we are seeking as really existing, and that from which we are to abstract and which we are to rule out through our attention, we believe to be non-existent. The prestidigitator does his tricks in order to sidetrack our attention, but he succeeds in making us believe that we see or do not see whatever he wishes.
If we sidetrack the car here with the conductor and flagman they can stay with the operator and you and I can take the cab into Medicine Bend." "Whatever you think best." "I hate to suggest it." "It is my fault. Shall we go now?" "As soon as we sidetrack the car. Meantime" he spoke earnestly "remember it may mean life bundle yourself up in everything warm you can find." "But you?"
Now, as they are still goin' to be too early for the season on the coast, Monsieur Blauring has conceived in his fertile brain the idea that it will be an interestin' and inexpensive thing for him to sidetrack his whole rodeo for a few weeks up in the Sacramentos, at the Sky Top hotel, that new railroad health resort some Yankees have just built, for lungers and other folks that have money and no pleasure in livin'."
Two pictures flashed across Houston's brain; one of a snowy sawmill with the force working day and night, when all the surrounding country cried for help, working toward its selfish ends that it might have a supply of necessary lumber in case a more humane organization should fail; another of carload after carload of necessary machinery, snow-covered, ice-bound, on a sidetrack at Tollifer, with the whole, horrible, snow-clutched fierceness of the Continental Divide between it and its goal.
On their way through England they do not come to London. Only twice have we had them here, yesterday and one day last summer when we had a parade of a regiment of engineers. For the army London is on a sidetrack is an out of the way place. For our navy, of course, it's the European headquarters, since Admiral Sims has his headquarters here.
Excuse me, Martha, but we all knew Sam; and after our rebuff she was in a fit state to swallow Thinkright's cheerful theories whole. I don't claim much knowledge of what I can't see or touch, but it wouldn't surprise me if the Power that Is let us sidetrack ourselves on purpose to put Sylvia in Thinkright's care.
I recognised Carter and Chilvers. They had heard of the tornado and had constituted themselves a searching party. "Naturally your mother is alarmed," said Carter "but I assured her that it was nothing more serious than delayed trains. She knows nothing of the tornado." We were informed that the up train would be held on a sidetrack until the one from Oak Cliff got through.
Lite saw the last pair of wheels it owned go clipping over the switch, and he stood in the middle of the track and swore. Then he went to the telegraph office and found out that a freight left for Nogales in ten minutes. He hunted up the conductor and did things to his bank roll, and afterwards climbed into the caboose on the sidetrack.
"You've got from now to September first to sidetrack this thing." "If Jude passes her word to him, she'll go. And you know as well as I do, Peter, that most anybody would sell their soul to ride in that rodeo with a fine outfit." "Certainly, I know it. But you keep out of it for a while." "Peter, I can't! When Dad gets to working on Judith, I see red. Listen! Just listen!"
Therefore he coaxed the electric locomotive out into the hills, some hundred or more miles from headquarters. He had to keep in touch with the train dispatcher's office, of course; the new machine had often to take a sidetrack. Nor was much of this hilly right-of-way electrified.
