Mother said, 'Of course, dearie, and Anthea started swimming through a sea of x's and y's and z's. Mother was sitting at the mahogany bureau writing letters. 'Mother dear, said Anthea. 'Yes, love-a-duck, said mother. 'About cook, said Anthea. 'I know where she is. 'Do you, dear? said mother. 'Well, I wouldn't take her back after the way she has behaved. 'It's not her fault, said Anthea.
"I can add with the use of my fingers and subtract and divide and multiply at least I know the tables up through the twelves. Of what use will a's and b's and x's, y's and z's ever be to me?" "Constance, you know that's nonsense," Bobby told her.
Moreover, Savonarola now set an example that was followed to good purpose by Luther, when, twenty-two years later, he burned Leo X's bull of excommunication at Wittenberg; he was weary of silence, so he declared, on the authority of Pope Pelagius, that an unjust excommunication had no efficacy, and that the person excommunicated unjustly did not even need to get absolution.
Readers who are especially interested in this subject will find descriptions of many other interesting experiments in the same article. Dr. Cocke describes a peculiar trick he played upon the sight of a subject. Says he: "I once hypnotized a man and made him read all of his a's as w's, his u's as v's, and his b's as x's.
A short distance away were several rows of X's of wood united by barbed wire, forming a compact fence. About three hundred feet further on, was a second wire fence.

"Easy there with that chest." "Easy it is, sir." "Now, I wonder what's in that case," said the American. "It's marked with two X's and a cross and SpG and OG. Now, what would that be, lufftenant?" "Dunno," replied the mate. "Rareohs for meddlers, I should say, sir." "Should you now?" said the American drily. "I shouldn't.
But the man of science, who, forgetting the limits of philosophical inquiry, slides from these formulae and symbols into what is commonly understood by materialism, seems to me to place himself on a level with the mathematician who should mistake the x's and y's with which he works his problems, for real entities and with this further disadvantage, as compared with the mathematician, that the blunders of the latter are of no practical consequence, while the errors of systematic materialism may paralyse the energies and destroy the beauty of a life.

'London: Printed for the British and Foreign Bible Society, Blackfriars, and the date, which I can't read, owing to its being in these X's. There's no devil in hell can look near the Bible Society, Blackfriars. Why, you silly!"
I can comprehend why he was able to understand that particular sentence, because by mere accident all the words in it except "get" have the same sound and the same meaning in German that they have in English; but how he managed to understand Mr. X's next remark puzzled me. I will insert it, presently.
