| 17269 | The Quaker Wedding:--The leader goes round with his eyes looking on the ground and sings"Hast thou ever been to a Quaker''s Wedding."? |
| 17269 | The villagers say that the Cotterstock bells ask:"Who rings the best? |
| 17269 | When told this, I asked, Why not a fox''s brush? |
| 17269 | Who rings the best?" |
| 36344 | And how is it possible for him to satisfy the conflicting demand? |
| 36344 | But how can he suit them all in one locality on a single day? |
| 36344 | THE OPEN LETTER"What is lightning and what causes it?" |
| 36344 | The question then,"What is lightning and what causes it?" |
| 46338 | Did he do it? 46338 Why so? |
| 46338 | (_ About 200 years old._) Will you buy, lady, buy My sweet blooming lavender? |
| 46338 | (_ October 28th._) It is a Bedford custom for boys to cry baked pears about the town, with the following words:-- Who knows what I have got? |
| 46338 | Did he do it? |
| 46338 | Did your eye brighten, when young lambs at play Leap''d o''er your path with animated pride, Or graz''d in merry clusters by your side? |
| 46338 | In a hot pot? |
| 46338 | May I my reason interpose, The question with an answer close? |
| 46338 | Oh, green bud, smile on me awhile; Oh, young bird, let me stay: What joy have we, old leaf, in thee? |
| 46338 | What time the daisy decks the green, Thy certain voice we hear; Hast thou a star to guide thy path, Or mark the rolling year? |
| 46338 | What trust to things below, whenas we see, As Men, the Heavens have their Hypocrisie? |
| 46338 | Where may we hear it now? |
| 46338 | Who knows what I have got? |
| 46338 | Why so?" |
| 46338 | Why, Valentine''s a day to choose A mistress, and our freedom lose? |

| 46338 | golden, golden summer, What is it thou hast done? |
| 26968 | Are you on our side? |
| 26968 | But why not? |
| 26968 | Do I? 26968 Do you have to shout?" |
| 26968 | Get him? |
| 26968 | Get me Air Force Chief of Staff Burns,he said, and, a moment later:"Bernie? |
| 26968 | How did you find out? |
| 26968 | Is it? |
| 26968 | Of Jo- Anne? |
| 26968 | Our man is there? |
| 26968 | Protection from what? |
| 26968 | So what''s in it for you? |
| 26968 | Such,said Maxine dubiously,"as what?" |
| 26968 | That''s your final decision? |
| 26968 | What did you say? |
| 26968 | What do you think, Jo? |
| 26968 | Whose manager''s permission? |
| 26968 | Wo n''t you please tell us first? |
| 26968 | You mean that? |
| 26968 | You mean, kill him? |
| 26968 | You regret what? |
| 26968 | *****"What does he want, comrade?" |
| 26968 | *****"You mean, if she ought to change her mind and marry him? |
| 26968 | Are n''t they, Sloman, dear fellow?" |
| 26968 | Are you satisfied, Sloman? |
| 26968 | But I forgot to ask Maxine: can I have little Jo- Anne''s phone number? |
| 26968 | But how did you know? |
| 26968 | But tell me, does that mean the field is wide open? |
| 26968 | Can you manage it? |
| 26968 | Cargo? |
| 26968 | Do you know,"Harry Bettis said in a devout whisper,"what a stunt like that would be worth? |
| 26968 | Do you want a mediocre job while the weather boys exploit you for the rest of your life or-- do you want greatness, riches, and Jo- Anne?" |
| 26968 | Have any idea what they''d pay for a stunt like that? |
| 26968 | He turned abruptly to Johnny, said,"You have any money saved up?" |
| 26968 | How did you ever know?" |
| 26968 | How had Johnny made his fifty million dollars? |
| 26968 | Huh, boy?" |
| 26968 | I''m your manager, are n''t I? |
| 26968 | Is that so hard? |
| 26968 | Is there any reason why you should predict snow for July 25th?" |
| 26968 | Looks like rain, kiddo? |
| 26968 | Right?" |
| 26968 | Then, as an afterthought:"Did you write this?" |
| 26968 | To make him think it''s his patriotic duty--""Well,"said Jo- Anne sharply,"is n''t it?" |
| 26968 | Why do n''t you act like a man?" |
| 26968 | You realize what that means, old pal?" |
| 26968 | You see?" |
| 33429 | Has meteorology made such progress? |
| 33429 | Have not the''American Association for the Advancement of Science''arrived at some definite and sound conclusion upon the subject? |
| 33429 | How, then, did you acquire the information you seem to possess? |
| 33429 | I have,he says,"long held the proper inquiry to be,_ what are storms_? |
| 33429 | I must understand this,said he;"how is it?" |
| 33429 | Long cold snap,we exclaim;"how long will it last?" |
| 33429 | Now, what is that? |
| 33429 | Shall I have fair weather now till I get home? |
| 33429 | Again, where are the_ upper regions_, from which the lateral overflow takes place? |
| 33429 | And all this without any relation, whatever, to the contiguity of the oceans? |
| 33429 | And now, what is the explanation of all this? |
| 33429 | Are all these the result of simple evaporation, ascent to a colder region, condensation, and descent again? |
| 33429 | Are they in fact so drawn? |
| 33429 | But further still, what heating and ascending process is it that makes the variable winds north of the tropics? |
| 33429 | But of what kind? |
| 33429 | But what says Burnes respecting the winds of this part? |
| 33429 | But what_ power_ impels the winds, which thus meet at these points? |
| 33429 | But which is the stronger force? |
| 33429 | But why does he say this_ covers the storm_? |
| 33429 | Can any one believe they were successive rotary gales? |
| 33429 | Can he not arrange with a moderate lens, to move his engine with the rays of the summer sun? |
| 33429 | Can it be, you ask, that this driving wind is but an_ incident_ of the storm? |
| 33429 | Can the lateral tide, if there be one, affect the weather? |
| 33429 | Cumulus, broken stratus, patches of cirro- cumulus or cirro- stratus, or scud? |
| 33429 | Do the magnetic currents, passing upward with increased force, lift, elevate the atmosphere? |
| 33429 | Does any man believe that either current exists? |
| 33429 | Does it heat so fast as to_ keep up the ascensive force_ without intermission, at twenty- five, or twenty, or ten miles the hour? |
| 33429 | From whence, then, does it come? |
| 33429 | Gloomy from what? |
| 33429 | Has the earth any agency, and if so, what? |
| 33429 | Her interior deserts are extensive and intensely hot-- why are they rainless? |
| 33429 | How are they produced? |
| 33429 | How are they_ impelled_? |
| 33429 | How can a thaw come? |
| 33429 | How coming? |
| 33429 | If neither the ceiling nor floor of the chamber have any agency in producing it, what does? |
| 33429 | If so, how then can we explain the diurnal fall while magnetism is most active? |
| 33429 | If the latter, why a tendency to rotation from right to left? |
| 33429 | If the upper one, why is the interloper at the surface noted and quoted to prove what a storm is? |
| 33429 | In what manner does it act? |
| 33429 | Is it distinct from it, and if so, what is it doing there? |
| 33429 | Is it not then the agent? |
| 33429 | Is it then the attraction of magnetism which produces the barometric oscillations? |
| 33429 | Is not our air the same and our heat the same? |
| 33429 | Is that the ascensive force of air at 100 °? |
| 33429 | Is the true one always the upper one, and why? |
| 33429 | Is there such an agent? |
| 33429 | Is this vast suction found by the unlucky mariner who may be drawn within the vortex? |
| 33429 | Must it not be, at least, double that of the belt of calms, or the"great region of expansion,"as Professor Dove calls it? |
| 33429 | Nay, what shall be done with Professor Dove? |
| 33429 | Nay, would not gravity fill the second vacuum from_ above_, rather than from the south- west side? |
| 33429 | Now what occasioned this general depression of temperature, and local fall of snow? |
| 33429 | Or is it a mere mechanical effect of meeting,"coming into each other,"or"over- sliding?" |
| 33429 | Precisely so; but why carried away? |
| 33429 | She is not more timid than others; why does she invariably thus build? |
| 33429 | The belt of rains, formed by the currents of the two trades, threading their way through each other-- how are they produced? |
| 33429 | This brings us to the inquiry, how was it done? |
| 33429 | Upon_ what cause_ do these great central phenomena, so vast, so regular, so wonderful, depend? |
| 33429 | What do these gentlemen mean? |
| 33429 | What does Professor Dove mean by the term_ impulsion_, as applied to the winds? |
| 33429 | What is the ascensive power of an area of atmosphere of 100 °? |
| 33429 | What is the height of this expansion? |
| 33429 | What is the_ motive power_ of this connected atmospheric machinery, whose action and influence extend over the entire globe? |
| 33429 | What makes her"_ impulses_"differ from those of other birds, and always in the_ same manner_? |
| 33429 | What power placed it there, and for what purpose? |
| 33429 | What says Mr. Ericsson to this? |
| 33429 | What, then, is the ascension force of air at 100 °? |
| 33429 | Where is the great uprising suction during the prevalence of this extensive surface horizontal monsoon beneath it? |
| 33429 | Who dare belie The constant sun?" |
| 33429 | Who dare belie The constant sun?" |
| 33429 | Who shall we believe? |
| 33429 | Why do they not ascend? |
| 33429 | Why do they not have a_ vortex_, a_ monsoon_, or even a_ shower_? |
| 33429 | Why does it not ascend? |
| 33429 | Why draw only from under the central belt of rains? |
| 33429 | Why should the place where the currents thus pass through each other be a place of almost daily precipitation? |
| 33429 | Why should we be exempt? |
| 33429 | Why then is it rainless? |
| 33429 | Why? |
| 33429 | Would not such a fact be perfectly conclusive in any other science except theory- swathed meteorology? |
| 33429 | _ And the opposite is true every where upon the land._ How much hotter is the ocean and air under this supposed vortex? |
| 33429 | _ What, in short, is the power, and how is it exerted?_ To these questions, Mr. Redfield''s essays furnish no comprehensive answer. |
| 33429 | and not,_ how are storms produced_? |
| 33429 | and will not the air incline to rush in, to some or all these successive vacuums, from some other side than south- west? |
| 33429 | and, if so, why the preference of vacuums by the air, and_ when, where, and why_, should the_ successive vacuums stop_? |
| 33429 | fog, or stratus, or a stratum of scud, or what? |
| 33429 | not"How are storms produced?" |
| 33429 | or, have these deserts the power of selecting the quarter from which their vacuum shall be filled, and of delegating it to succeeding vacuums? |
| 33429 | or, that every one of them was not an interloping wind on which the true storm wind was superimposed? |
| 33429 | or, will it all voluntarily rush in, and leave a new complete vacuum? |
| 33429 | that brings in the warm air and fog of the Gulf Stream upon our_ snow- clad coast_, in mid- winter, to increase the January thaw? |
