The well-drilled pony, however, settled down again quietly to maintain his end of the see-saw, and, finding himself still able to preserve his equilibrium, Puggy instantly forgot the presence of the intruder. "What's up?" asked Ginger again. "Oh! Well 'it, WELL 'IT!" yelled Puggy. "Oh! Gow on, gow on agen! Run it aht. Run it AH-T." Ginger gave it up, and turned his attention to the match.

I only named it because, with such very young men, it's generally see-saw between appetite and love, and I thought the third helping a very good sign. But still, you know, what has happened once, may happen again. 'I don't know. Phoebe had an offer of marriage once said Miss Browning. 'Hush! sister. It might hurt his feelings to have it spoken about. 'Nonsense, child!

A pole across a stone wall was another splendid aid to horsemanship, see-saw fashion, or turned into a steed for one, by wedging the thick end into a hole and riding the thin end, spring fashion; while, as the years rolled by and the boys were back from school, an occasional mount was had upon Saxon, Tallington's old grey horse, falsely said to be nearly two hundred.

If the see-saw was to have operated indeed for Eugène Delacroix, our next young admiration, though much more intelligently my brother's than mine, that had already taken place and settled, for we were to go on seeing him, and to the end, in firm possession of his crown, and to take even, I think, a harmless pleasure in our sense of having from so far back been sure of it.

Alternating currents, on the other hand, which see-saw in direction many times a second, cannot be stored in accumulators, but they can be sent at high pressure along a very fine wire, and then converted to higher or lower pressures where they are wanted, and even to continuous currents. Each kind, therefore, has its peculiar advantages, and both will be employed to some extent.

It enabled the workmen to "see-saw" these ponderous objects, and pass them to and fro through the rolls with the utmost case, to the great saving of heat, time, and labour. The invention was first brought into use by Mr. Ramsbotham at the Crewe works of the London and North-Western Railway.

Seeing him dumfounded, the other concluded him confuted, and withdrew calmed. The bedrooms were upstairs, dungeons with not a scrap of furniture except the bed, and a male servant settled inexorably who should sleep with whom. Neither money nor prayers would get a man a bed to himself here; custom forbade it sternly. You might as well have asked to monopolize a see-saw.

"Oh, Sammy Lee's afraid of me, riding the see-saw under the tree." "I say, Beth," said Sammy, much impressed, "did you make that yourself?" "Make what myself? Make you afraid? Yes, I did." "No, you didn't," said Sammy, plucking up spirit. "I'm not afraid." "Then don't be a fool," said Beth. "Fool yourself," Sammy muttered, but not very valiantly. The church-clock struck nine.

He happened to be just now very considerably frightened about himself, more frightened than he had been for a very long time, so frightened in fact that he had drunk nothing for weeks. For many years he had been leading a see-saw existence, and the see-saw had been swung by that mysterious force known as Finance.

Then, after a see-saw motion, he dashed into the open space, his tiara going before him. A heavy crash reached their ears, and next day they found him broken into a dozen pieces in the old pit for composts. An hour afterwards the notary came in, bringing good news to them.
