In the little house at the end of the street by the shores of Squirrel Creek, Sam and his sister Kate regarded their father's warlike pretensions with scorn. "The butter is low, father's army leg will ache to-night," they whispered to each other across the kitchen table.

"Why," said he, "as the Duc de Choiseul loves his sister, it is thought fashionable to do the same; and I know silly girls, whose brothers formerly cared nothing about them, who are now most tenderly beloved. No sooner does their little finger ache, than their brothers are running about to fetch physicians from all corners of Paris.

"Hats make my head ache! So you think the meeting will be useful?" "Emphatically. It did occur to me that I might drop a line to Robert in fact, I was writing to him when you came in. Here's the letter, as you see, signed and sealed." "Do send it."

No one would regard a man as introspective because he was conscious of having a stomach ache. Opponents of introspection do not mean to deny the obvious fact that we can observe bodily sensations which others cannot observe.

Jim's doing well in the shop, and they might be married and dear, dear, I wish my hand didn't ache so bad. Well, there's one good thing about it anyway I needn't waste time in bed, for sleep one wink with this sort of burning pain I couldn't, so I may jest as well set up and put that feather-stitching straight.

When you came home from Washington I was so glad to see you, and I used to listen for your step when you went to Olney and it was time for you to return.

Here was frankness with a vengeance, and I fell back upon silence, whereupon a pause ensued, to my share of which I imparted the deepest shadow of disapproval within my power. Unfortunately, she did not look at me; my effort passed with no other effect than to make some of my facial muscles ache.

The Kid called it "that Dago tune." I think it was something from Il Trovatore. Suddenly one of the little Italians dropped his rod, stood up to his full height, lifted his arms very much after the manner of an orchestra leader and joined in with me. I stopped because I saw that he could whistle. He carried it on with much expression to the last thin note with all the ache of the world in it.

Poor Mamma Vi! how her heart must ache! and is she going to stay on at Ion now, papa?" "Yes; certainly till her mother is out of danger or forever done with sin and suffering. Gracie and our two little ones will stay too; Gracie amusing the others and keeping them in the grounds, or a part of the house so distant from Grandma Elsie's room that their noise will not disturb her."
