Little Horatio looked gray and old; his lips trembled and his hand shook as he greeted Bragdon. "Well, sir, so you and Milly have made up your minds to get married?" "Yes, sir." "Hope you'll make each other happy." "We shall!" both chorused. "And I hope you'll be able to support her." "We'll live on nothing," Milly bubbled gayly. "First time then I've known you to," Horatio retorted sourly.
Own up, you thief!" chorused the two experts, who, pallid and debauched looking, now stood beside the two struggling men: and Dick now noticed that Gilderman held the small strong box and that it was open, and empty. The diamonds had gone!
It is such an unusual and exciting story that it would be cruel to leave us in suspense about the end." "Very well, then," said Musard, as the other ladies chorused their approval. "We left the cave, and Moynglass, who considered himself the leader of the expedition, put the ruby in his pocket.
The "Hills" the whole East, for that matter are ever ready to form a new sect or join a new band or a new blood-feud. Witness the Nikalseyns, who worship a long-since dead Englishman. "We see!" yelled one of them. "We see!" they chorused, and the idea took charge. From that minute they were a new band, with a war-cry of their own.

Madge turned to Mrs. Curtis. "We must say good-bye this minute, but we'll write you, and one of these days you'll find our 'Ship of Dreams' anchored on your beach."
But in a moment the boy ran down the steps again and retraced his steps up Main Street. As he passed the street where we were he looked down, and then he came toward us.
