Tollman, had best be discussed out of hearing of others." Tollman remained unhospitably rigid and his eyes narrowed into an immediate hostility. "Whatever business we may have had, Mr. Hagan," he suggested, "has for some time been concluded, I think." But on this point the visitor seemed to hold a variant opinion.

There were three boats he might have come on the Adriatic and Cecelie from Cherbourg, and La Touraine from Havre. There is nothing else that I know of," he added thoughtfully, "except that Freylinghuisen thinks he has discovered the nature of the poison. He says it is some very powerful variant of prussic acid." "Yes," I said, "I heard him say something of the sort last night."

He partially solved it by fixing two rests on the ledge to support a rifle in exact line with the center of the enemy's supposed position, and as a variant, on the outer rest he marked lines which corresponded with other sections of the entire front available to the foe. Even then he was not satisfied.

And, when we also find that these effects, though differing in degree, are yet uniform in their character, while they seem to proceed from objects which in themselves are indefinitely variant, both in kind and degree, we are still more forcibly drawn to the conclusion, that the cause is not only one, but not inherent in the object.

Depriving the enemy, in specific areas, of the ability to communicate, observe, and to interact is a more reasonable and perhaps more achievable variant. This deprival of senses, including all electronics and substitution of false signals or data to create this feeling of impotence, is another variant.

Yet it is obviously not its source but rather an imitation or variant indirectly drawn from a similar foundation story. Gonzalo's speech, too, follows pretty closely a passage in Florio's Montaigue. The first scene shows the storm in progress. Is there any clew given to the reader that it is a magic tempest?

Of course all these figures are mythical, and even at the time of the Sumerian Dynasty of Nîsin variant traditions were current with regard to the number of historical and semi-mythical kings of Babylonia and the duration of their rule.

Could it be that "Picchu" was the modern variant of "Pitcos"? To be sure, the white granite of which the temples and palaces of Machu Picchu are constructed might easily pass for marble. The difficulty about fitting Ocampo's description to Machu Picchu, however, was that there was no difference between the lintels of the doors and the walls themselves.

There are distinct traces that the belief was current in parts of Babylonia which made Ea the creation of mankind. Variant traditions of this kind point to the existence of various centers of culture and thought in rivalry with one another.

There is a gracious variant of this motive as Mélisande tells how she caught her gown on the nails of the gate as she left the castle, and so was delayed. Their mutual "Your voice seems to have
