He glanced about furtively to find the speaker. "There are some people, Doctor von Kammacher," Arthur Stoss said in a raised voice, "who leave their decency in Europe when they travel to America, though that does not reduce the price of the passage." The man at whom the remark was aimed left it unanswered. "But, Mr.

"Why couldn't you let me dance the first day under Webster and Forster, as Mr. Stoss and everybody else advised?" "Ingigerd," said Frederick, "I had to look out for your health." "Stuff and nonsense! You took the whole matter into your hands. You acted illegally, against my expressed wish, when you chased Webster and Forster's agent away from the cab when we left the steamer."

The city, as I said, lives upon the memory of what it has been, and trades upon relics of its former fame. What it would have been without Albrecht Durer, and Adam Kraft the stone-mason, and Peter Vischer the bronze-worker, and Viet Stoss who carved in wood, and Hans Sachs the shoemaker and poet-minstrel, it is difficult to say.

Remembering the awful disaster, they were transported into a sentimental, religious mood. Frederick shuddered with disgust. The sinking of the Roland was being exploited. It was a relief when Stoss finally took up the pea-rifle. Bulke in the part he now played aroused as much admiration in Frederick and the artists as Stoss, if not more.

Stoss needed some massaging and patching up, and while the physicians were busy with him, he crowed and cawed in his most jovial manner: "I always say you can't destroy weeds. Tanned leather is impervious to salt water.
