For several minutes, he occupied himself with the adjustment of this machine, switching the light off and on and focussing the lenses. Then he took the letter to Miss Winslow, laid it flat on the machine, switched on the light and immediately on the sheet appeared a very enlarged copy of the writing. "This is what has been called a rayograph by a detective of my acquaintance," explained Garrick.
They can be killed by things people used to laugh at. How the disease got here, I don't know. But it's here. So we'll have to give up the idea of switching back to Earth-normal." He gathered up one of the kits and started toward the other houses. "And Lord knows how long it will take to get the blood for the other treatment, even if it works."
He threw open a wing of the folding-doors, once in Georgian times separating drawing-room from withdrawing-room, and now separating living-room from bedroom, and switching on the light, invited McPhail to follow. "I think you'll find everything you want," said he. Phineas McPhail, left alone to his ablutions, again looked round, and he had more reason than ever to ask what it was all about.
Dan Horsey sat on the dresser of my kitchen, switching his boot with a riding-whip, and looking at Susan with an extremely melancholy expression of countenance. Susan was cleaning a silver tea-pot her usual occupation when Dan was present. Cook now resigned to her fate was sighing and peeling potatoes in the scullery. "Och! darlint, me heart's heavier than a cart o' coals," said Dan.
Dick, Arnold and Herbert, the three boys who had been flying their kite when they found the Candy Rabbit in the grass, were laughing and shouting as they saw the tail switching to and fro, with the Easter Bunny tied on the end. "That Rabbit was just the thing needed to make our kite go up," said Dick. "Yes," agreed Arnold. "But it's funny the Rabbit was out in the grass here, wasn't it?"
A piece of old carpet was laid in front of the hut, too, where the boys could sit and watch the trains switching back and forth on the railway, and the tramps who were heating coffee in cans over by the cattle-pen.
Now and then a young gnu was seen to fall behind with its mother, or the bull would drop out of the ranks, and switching it severely with its long tail, compel it to keep up. The older quaggas also seemed to keep their youngsters in excellent order.
Then, immediately, before the wireless from the unknown, which modern occultism calls the impact, could impel her, the room was invaded. Ma Tamby, tramping in, switching on the lights, was exclaiming and gesticulating at her and at Paliser, who had followed and who was standing in the doorway. "Dearie! For God's sake! The child's asleep! In all my born days I never knew the likes of that!"
All around stood the horses of the band, with a great noise of stamping feet and a great switching of tails. To this inn came the King's rangers, driving the widow's three sons before them. The hands of the three youths were tied tightly behind their backs, and a cord from neck to neck fastened them all together.
He's up in the laboratory now. You can all take yourselves off as quickly as you like, when once the snuff box is in my hands. Now speak." "First, let my husband up." Hartmann went to the wall, and switching off the violet rays, turned on the electric lamp, then nodded to Mayer. "Unbind him," he said. Duvall staggered to his feet, half-blinded. As he did so, Hartmann turned to Grace.
