"I've got no end of extra-tu as it is." "Well, call this extra-tu," said Ansell. "'Twon't take us long to mug up the drill." "Oh, that's right enough, but what about marchin' in public?" said Hogan, not foreseeing that three years later he should die in the Burmese sun-light outside Minhla Fort. "Afraid the uniform won't suit your creamy complexion?" McTurk asked with a villainous sneer.
The blue waves of Lake Erie danced, rippling and sparkling, in the sun-light. A fresh breeze blew from the shore, and the lordly boat ploughed her way right gallantly onward. O, what an untold world there is in one human heart! Who thought, as George walked calmly up and down the deck of the steamer, with his shy companion at his side, of all that was burning in his bosom?
He had arrived in Florence two days before that on which Nisida returned to the ancestral dwelling: he had entered the city boldly and openly in the joyous sun-light and yet no one molested him. He even encountered some of the very sbirri who had arrested him in the preceding month of February; they saluted him respectfully thus showed that they recognized him but offered not to harm him.

He ran a day and night line, copying by sun-light and by candle-light. I should have been quite delighted with his application, had he been cheerfully industrious. But he wrote on silently, palely, mechanically.
Cold Graperies, with span roofs, and glazed at both ends, are better placed North and South, that is, with the ends facing these points, as nearly as a due regard to the positions of other buildings in the vicinity, and the general symmetry and apportionment of the grounds will permit. Each side of the roof will thus receive an equal amount of sun-light.
When they are intended for the growth of plants, then the more sun-light they can have the better. Until within a few years past, the straight-pitched roof, both single and double, has been used almost exclusively in the construction of glass houses.
