Gott, how I makes mistakes! So you learn him that foolishness extra so he gets chawed off of horses?" "Nonsense," interposed the doctor. "Miss Bailey is ridiculously fond of that child of yours."

The former none of our adventurers cared to eat, although it is often eaten both by the trappers and Indians and the latter was so torn and chawed as to render it worthless. So, since no other game not even a squirrel could be found about the place, all four Lucien, Basil, Francois, and Marengo, went to sleep for the first time since the commencement of their journey supperless!

Besides, it was beastly waste of the cigarette. She chawed off quite as much as she smoked. You'd have thought she'd have been obliged to me for giving her the tip, but quite the contrary. She hoofed me off to bed." "But what has made her take to smoking?" "She had to," said Priscilla. "I don't think she really likes it, but with her principles she simply had to.

He looked from Reuben to Perez, whose face as he gazed absently at the coals on the hearth still wore the smile which had attracted his attention. This seemed to decide him, for as he turned again to Reub, he said, shrewdly: "Yew can't fool me with no gum-game o' that sort. I guess Perez wouldn't be grinnin that ar way ef he callated we wuz gonter be all chawed up afore mornin."

Just try taking a bone away from a hungry dog or cat, once, and see. He thought you a busybody, that's what, Bandy-legs. But he's gone now, if so be you want to investigate, and find out whether the 'coon chawed another hole in your canoe." But Bandy-legs only threw himself down by the fire.

It was rather awkward, as we had nothing to tip them with. We got out at a dismal sort of place called Chillon. We told the captain if he was ever in London the pater would be glad to see him. We had a grind getting back here with the boat, as it came on dark and misty, and we couldn't see where Montreux had got to. Jim got rather chawed up too by the cold, so I sculled.

I ought to catch you in a trap, or blow your head off. But I don't. I let you live and have a fam'ly. And it's you who have given me the Big Idea, Mrs. Captain Kidd. You sure have!

I turned deathly sick with horror as I drew out my handkerchief and gave it to him; and then I felt ashamed of myself, for Pete burst out laughing. "He aren't touched your neck, Master Nat," he cried, "on'y got hold of the collar of your jacket and chawed it a bit. I say, who'd ha' thought an old straw hat was better than a gun!" "Can we get some water?" I said hoarsely.

Well, jist do the civil now, and tell me when that little braggin' feller ever whipped us, will you? Just tell me the day of the year he was ever able to do it, since his mammy cut the apron string and let him run to seek his fortin'. Heavens and airth, we'd a chawed him right up!

There I entered skulkingly, as a gameless hunter may, and hid my untrophied head beneath a mound of ancient hay, not without the mustiness of its age. No one clawed us, no one chawed us, that night. A Ripogenus chill awaked the whole party with early dawn.
