DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from A Woman's Journey Through the Philippines The difficulty discovered, it must be local ized. A hush falls over the ship. Down to the testing room go the experts. Seconds, minutes, hours crawl by. At last some one leaves the consultation for a brief space, frowning heavily and apparently deep in thought. No one dares address him, or ask the questions all are longing to have nu swered, and when his lips move silently we know that he is muttering over galvanometer readings to himself. During this time every one talks in whispers, and not always intel ligently, of the electrostatic capacity of the cable, absolute resistances, and the coc i Cients of correction, while the youngest mem ber of the expedition neglects her beloved poo'dle, sonorously yclept Snobbles, and no longer hangs him head downward over the ship's rail.
