Hicks wet his lips with his tongue, pausing, after the manner of a good raconteur, to gaze calmly about upon the faces of his auditors. "I could n't see jist how much the feller disgorged, but he wus almighty reluctant an' nifty about it; an' then I heerd him say, sneerin'-like, 'Now, damn yer, how much more do you want?

Joe is with us to the last ditch out for the second rate badge " "You mean the second class badge," Pee-wee thundered. "Brownie is going to be steward or whatever you " "Don't talk about stew," said Billy. "Pardon me, my fault," said Townsend, "only I'd like to rise to remark while I'm lying here that I think we're going to make a pretty nifty patrol.
He said yer never licked the boys; and he said, when the 'nifty' little girls come to git in, with their white aprons, yer said there warn't no room; but when the dirty chaps with tored close come, yer said yer'd make room. Jim said as how yer'd never show me the door, sure." "Fits! Good gracious, child! What makes you think that?"
'Tain't's nifty 's the ole one, but it's easier handled, an' it'll last us through, I guess." Mira was examining it soberly. "What's the matter with it? It don't seem even somehow."
