And you, sir, do you like the thought of going to India?" "Yes, Uncle, I like the thought very much, though I would rather, if I may say so, have gone as a cadet."

You wanted to wear a red coat and a sword, and to swagger about the streets of Calcutta, instead of making an honorable living and acquiring a fortune."
"Perhaps you are trying to say 'bone of contention," suggested Faith, somewhat sarcastically. "Maybe 'twas. Anyway, he says Mr. Hardman wants me but I don't want him, I can tell you that!" "I thought you had signed a treaty of peace and were friends now," murmured the older girl, considerably amused at the child's belligerent attitude, in spite of her troubled thoughts.

Thus the sad autumn afternoon waned, while the waterfall hissed sarcastically of the inevitableness of the unpleasant. Very different this from the time when they had first met there. The nook was most picturesque; but it looked horridly common and stupid now.
"They seem to be 'babbling' over Julia Crosby just now," said Anne, who had been curiously watching the jubilant juniors. "No doubt she has just unfolded some new scheme," said Nora sarcastically, "that will be practised on the sophomores at the first opportunity."
