Savine read the message and tossed the paper across to Mrs. Savine before he rose shakily to his feet. "I would sooner have heard anything than that Geoffrey was badly hurt," he exclaimed with a quaver in his voice. To the Chinaman, who brought the stranger in, he gave the order, "Get him some supper and tell Fontaine I want him at once." "Poor Geoffrey! We must hope it is not serious," cried Mrs.

The records taken in the studio of those five words, 'Can you hear me now? are in the same general rhythm, but only the last three snakes show exact similarity, to each little quaver and turn. There was only the difference in shading: one was the voice of a women. The second of a man of perhaps forty, the third of an old man all three taken at different times, and I thought from different people.

Then, finally, with no change or quaver in his voice, he put his query. "Where is Ordez?" "Where?" echoed my father, and he rose. "Why, Zindorf, he is on his way here." And he extended his arm toward the open window. The big man lifted his head and looked out at the men and horses now clearly visible on the distant road. "Who are these people," he said, "and why do they come?"

She has the making of a good woman a girl can see that; only she can't bear loneliness, and doesn't understand yet what it is to be loved by a true gentleman. Persons of that class can't learn it all at once. I was pained to see her in tears. Her figure was straight, and she spoke without a quaver of her voice. 'Heriot's an excellent fellow, I remarked. 'He is.

It had the desired effect. I stayed till late, listening to his inexhaustible fund of stories. Over most of them he laughed with us himself a great gusty laugh that made the cheap glass ornaments upon the mantelpiece to tremble; but now and then a recollection came to him that spread a sudden gravity across his jovial face, bringing a curious quaver into his deep voice.

We feel the wheeling motions; and where, at the seventeenth bar of the second part, the quaver figure enters, we think we see the flowing dresses sweeping round. Again what vigour in the third part, and how coaxingly tender the fourth! And, lastly, the brilliant conclusion the quavers intertwined with triplets!

Some one was singing, a dull, old, droning sailor's song, with a droop and a quaver at the end of every verse, and seemingly no end to it at all but the patience of the singer. I had heard it on the voyage more than once, and remembered these words:

"Well, attend," said Dubois, "how I now pass over and strike the quaver, which afterwards quivers in the deep tones, and how in the mean while my hand works here in the bass. You now understand this many-voiced composition? Listen! see, that is what I call fundamental composition." "Yes, it is pretty," said Godfred "he can now move all his paws."

"I reckon Samson don't need no fotched-on help ter make folks acknowledge him." "Every man needs his chance. He can be a great painter but that's the least part of it. He can come back equipped for anything that life offers. Here, he is wasted." "Ye mean" she put the question with a hurt quaver in her voice "ye mean we all hain't good enough fer Samson?" "No.
