Finding, no doubt, that, when they did so, the doggies were too timid to object, and discovering, moreover, that they were sweet, innocent little creatures, the owls resolved to take them into partnership, and so the thing was settled that's how it came about, no doubt of it!

But on the whole he liked his form work: he knew why he was there, and Herbert did not overshadow him so completely. What was amiss with Herbert? He had known that something was amiss, and had entered into partnership with open eyes. The man was kind and unselfish; more than that he was truly charitable, and it was a real pleasure to him to give pleasure to others.

"You are a partner worth having," he said, much moved. "I knew you would be, and it's seemed to me all winter that no wife could be more of one. But if you're going to add this to your other activities you will make yourself even more indispensable than you already are, which is saying much." She could hardly wait until she had made a trial of this new form of partnership.

James Payn, who is living at the Lakes, and to whom she has been most kind, says he fears she will be a great pecuniary sufferer by . I only hope that it is a definite sum, and no general security or partnership, even that will be bad enough for a woman of her age, and so hard a worker, who intended to give herself rest; but observe these are only fears.

He persisted in compelling admiration of Sidonie's purchase even to its smallest details, exhibited the gas and water fixtures on every floor, the improved system of bells, the garden seats, the English billiard-table, the hydropathic arrangements, and accompanied his exposition with outbursts of gratitude to Fromont Jeune, who, by taking him into partnership, had literally placed a fortune in his hands.

A most extraordinary performance it certainly is, dealing with the arrangements entered into by the three persons of the Trinity, in as bald and matter-of-fact language and as commercial a spirit as if the author had been handling the adjustment of a limited partnership between three retail tradesmen.

"Got any capital?" interjected the stranger, carelessly, squirting a yellow stream upon the floor of the car. "Oh, I don't expect to go into business for myself at present," said Jasper, amused at the thought. "No?" said the other, reflectively. "If you had five thousand dollars I might take you into partnership." "What is your business?" asked Jasper, with curiosity. "Cotton," said the stranger.

Thy mirth, friend, savoureth of folly: Thou art a person of a light mind; thy drum is a type of thee, it soundeth because it is empty. Verily, it is not from thy fulness, but thy emptiness that thou hast spoken this day. Friend, friend, we have hired this coach in partnership with thee, to carry us to the great city; we cannot go any other way.

The wisdom of this arrangement, which lasted about a year and a half until, in fact, its usefulness was outworn by the union of both the Medinan tribes under his leadership was immediate and far-reaching.
