"Hello," replied Sammie, who always wanted to be friendly. "Where do you live?" the voice went on, and, all at once, Sammie thought of the cat. "No, you don't!" he cried. "You can't fool me again. I know you!"

This man was an ambitious villain. Of course he accepted Amalasuntha's foolish offer and swore to observe the agreement made between them. But before many weeks had passed he had made her a prisoner and had her securely hidden upon an island in the Lake of Bolsena in Umbria. But Theodahad appears to have been a fool as well as a villain.

Do you know I am dissatisfied with your younger son? The prince answered nothing, but she looked at him significantly, awaiting a reply. He frowned. "What would you have me do?" he said at last. "You know I did all a father could for their education, and they have both turned out fools. Hippolyte is at least a quiet fool, but Anatole is an active one. That is the only difference between them."

And the Marquis, the Romanised Swiss of Geneva, really had a proud bearing, with his solid soldierly figure and long wavy moustaches. People said that he was in no wise a fool but, on the contrary, very gay and very supple, just the man to please women.

His eyes sparkled with rage, and, stamping on the floor, he exclaimed, "Why, then, let me tell you, miss, you are a damned idiot. I knew you were a fool, but could not believe that your folly would ever carry you to these lengths!" Much more in this style did poor Frank utter on this occasion.

At once Josephine began upon the same subject. With studied indifference how amusing for a woman of her inexperience to try to fool a man of his experience! she said: "Tell me some more about that typewriter girl.
