The corporal walked to the table, stooped, and drew from under it a rifle and a pouch half-filled with cartridges. 'Tell him we've been there. He seemed to hear the rifleman Bill's voice repeating the words, close at hand. He recognised the badge on the pouch. He was shaking where he stood; and this, perhaps, was why the child stared at him so oddly.
After the space of a few moments spent in arranging certain objects and in inward contemplation, Yang Hu crossed the chamber, still holding the half-filled vessel of gold-leaf in his hand, and drawing back the hanging silk, gazed over the silent streets of Ching-fow and towards the great sky-lantern above.
Watch them all shake back as they were before, the largest on top and the smallest at the bottom. Lectures in Cans At this place the lecturer exhibits a glass jar more than half-filled with small white beans and a few walnuts. Let us try that right on the platform. Here is a glass jar and inside of it you see two sizes of objects a lot of little white beans and some walnuts.
Its furniture was all of massy gold, and beautified with designs which well-nigh made it priceless, since they were the work of Benvenuto. The room was half-filled with noble servitors.
But no sooner was he comfortably ensconced for a snooze than Nick came bustling in with a kettle of boiling water and several glasses half-filled with whisky and lemon. Stopping before Ashby he said in his best professional manner: "Re-gards of the Girl hot whisky straight with lemming extract." Ashby took up his glass, as did, in turn, the men at the other table.
And seizing the tumbler offered to him, he half-filled it with raw spirit, and swallowed the fiery draught at a gulp. The Reverend Meekin eyed his clerical brother with horror. The Reverend Meekin was not accustomed to clergymen who wore black neckties, smoked clay pipes, chewed tobacco, and drank neat brandy out of tumblers. "Ha!" said North, looking wildly round upon them. "That's better."
Block did not answer, but set three glasses on the table, and then took out from a cupboard a little round long-necked bottle, from which he poured out a glass for Ratsey and himself. Then he half-filled the third, and pushed it along the table to me, saying, 'There, take it, lad, if thou wilt; 'twill do thee no good, but may do thee no harm. Ratsey raised his glass almost before it was filled.
When our Italian hosts had offered me wine in a general sort of way, I had declined. My beer experience had been enough for me, and I had no inclination to traffic further in the stuff, or in anything related to it. Unfortunately, one young Italian, Peter, an impish soul, seeing me sitting solitary, stirred by a whim of the moment, half-filled a tumbler with wine and passed it to me.
TAHITI. Passage from wacke into trap; singular volcanic rock with the vesicles half-filled with mesotype. MAURITIUS. Proofs of its recent elevation. Structure of its more ancient mountains; similarity with St. Jago. ST. PAUL'S ROCKS. Not of volcanic origin. Their singular mineralogical composition.
The empty space on the street left by the demolished house is half-filled by a fence of rotten boards, shored up by five stone posts. In this recess lies concealed a little shanty which leans against the portion of the ruin which has remained standing. The fence has a gate, which, a few years ago, was fastened only by a latch.
