Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from To and Fro Finally the pigmy triumphed. He put its topmost stone beneath his creeping feet, and others followed; but the cruel crag has taken toll of more than twenty lives for their temerity. Riding up the valley of the Visp, as one rounds the angle of an interposing. Hill, directly in front of him towers the solitary monolith, a massive monument that tells of the immensity of this Alp range in Mesozoic time. The average traveler comes to Zermatt with about as much intention of attempting the moon as the Matterhorn. He has read how for centuries its precipitous sides defied every effort of man to gain the summit, of the lives that have been dashed out upon its icy rocks, and until he comes under its mighty spell, he feels no inclination to risk either his neck or his reputation for common sense in an undertaking so laborious and full of peril.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Collection of British Authors, Vol. 1: Tauchnitz Edition; Through Fire to Fortune "Now mind you do not let the fire go out, and lay supper for nine o'clock. I'll not be much after that. Be sure you finish your packing, Susy," was the parting injunction of Mrs. Mayfield, as she closed the area door of her neat little semi-detached house in Park Road, Kilburn. She was a plump, keen-eyed matron, who ruled the fortunes of a rather lazy husband, many sons, and two daughters, Susan being one of the latter. "Let us see to the fire at once," she said to a young friend who was spending the Sunday afternoon with her, "then we'll go upstairs and finish up my big box, for that's to go off to-morrow early, as it's to go with the heavy luggage. I am to join the family in the Isle of Wight to-morrow afternoon." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

He must be hard to please who cannot find intense enjoyment in the Eclogues of Phineas Fletcher, in Cowley's epitaph on Harvey, in the Miltonic stanzas of Gray's Installation Ode, in a score of other pieces, grave, quaint, or classical in their allusive ness of phrasing. Especially grateful must we be to the number of poets, of exquisite feeling and easy mastery of form, who during the last fifty or sixty years have enriched the language with delicate and elegant verse, from which it has been only too difficult to choose because its quantity is so great and its merit so even. Of this we trust we have given a tolerably adequate selection but it would have been easy to multiply it fourfold.

Download or read book Culturgeschichtliche Novellen written by W. H. Riehl and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 2017-12-14 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Culturgeschichtliche Novellen It is as in some sort an introduction to such a study of German as I have endeavoured to indicate, so far as this is possible under the limitations of a commentary on a given text, that the present volume has been prepared. The notes are numerous and copious, but I trust they will commend themselves as not of the kind that paralyse the student's own mental activity by superseding the necessity for it; but rather as stimulating it by presenting suitable material in a workable form, and furnishing guidance in such a way as to lead to future independence. The material has of course been supplied in the first place by the text itself. This has been to a small extent supplemented, but chiefly elucidated and illustrated, by matter drawn from sources many of them inaccessible to the English reader. A not inconsiderable element may lay some claim to origi nality, and perhaps this will be the most valuable part of the book to the real student, because treating from the objective standpoint of the foreigner, specially of the Englishman, matters of idiomatic difficulty upon which only scattered hints are to be found in sources English or German. I may refer particularly to the notes on the particles, on the exact force, as felt in the original, of words like erst, z'ibrzlgms, vol lends, &c., and of certain familiar but peculiar modes of con ception and expression which are too completely ingrained in the consciousness of a native for him easily to make them the objects of analysis or of explanation to others.

Mr. Hill had selected the name Of Leeuwenhoek for his son. The name was changed without Mr. Hill's consent because the local populace rebelled at the effort it required to pronounce it. Several substitute names were suggested by friends and neighbors. After a considerable amount Of heated debate, the name Of Roy was finally chosen.

Download or read book Observations Upon the Natural History of Epidemic Diarrhoea written by O. H. Peters and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Observations Upon the Natural History of Epidemic Diarrhoea The causative agencies from which springs the plentiful harvest of child mortality in large cities may be conceived as a felted mass of rootlets almost inextricably intertwined. Those of poverty, bad housing, bad feeding, and neglect, may be severally recognized, but the extent of their interrelations with actual respiratory and alimentary disease - those to which the greater part of the mortality is referred - can be traced only with difficulty. It is the object Of this work to aid ln the labour of cutting away the matrix and entangling fibres and to lay bare the hidden ramifications of at least one important causative agency - epidemic diarrhoea. This affection - if we accept provisionally the more novel and generally favoured conception. As to its nature - is revealed as something very like an ordinary infectious disease, and one which permeates all classes, while the excessive mortality it gathers round itself in urban centres must be regarded as something superadded, owing to the vicious circle it forms with those baneful conditions of slum life mentioned above. On the other hand, its peculiarly intimate association with the circum stances of domestic life, from the continual faecal pollution of the interior of the household by infants and others, tends to make it more so than other affections of the kind peculiarly a class disease, and an especial scourge of dirty neighbourhoods. Dirty towns may however be saved from excessive mortality by a high percentage of breast feeding. A notable point in the interesting comparison that can be drawn between diarrhoea and typhoid fever is that, in accordance with their peculiarly opposite age-incidence curves, the marked and habitual depositing of infectious excreta within the household in the former disease may make the question of water-closet versus conservancy pan a matter of far less importance than in the latter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Holden With the Cords But the young man now coming up the street, through the pleasant play of sunshine and shadow beneath the elms, would neither have asked the question, nor smiled at the answer. He knew the stuccoed building well, as a three years' occupant thereof must needs do and he had heard and repeated the witticism too many times to leave it the faintest sparkle. It was doubtful, too, whether he gave a thought to the loveliness of the elm-arched vista that stretched before him, - partly by reason of his familiarity therewith, partly on account of a preoccupied mind, and still more, perhaps, because his bright, brisk, energetic temperament was not Of the sort which is quickest to feel the subtile charm, and recognize the delicate outline, of the Spirit of beauty. He came on rapidly, with an elastic step and a cheery whistle, and, as he neared the college, he cast a quick glance at one of its upper windows. What he saw there would have been a pretty enough sight to most people, - merely a tiny brown bird hopping to and fro on the win dow-sill, and turning its small head briskly from side to side in its search for infinitesimal crumbs, - but it brought a shadow to his broad, frank brow. Not yet up, he muttered, or that wren wouldn't be trotting up and down there so complacently! To be sure, he may have gone out, but it isn't likely.
