"I have interested my father," Betty answered, with a brilliant smile. "He liked the romance of the Reuben S. Vanderpoel who rewarded the saver of his life by unbounded orders for the Delkoff." As their carriage drove away, Sir Nigel bent forward to look out of the window, and having done it, laughed a little. "Mount Dunstan does not play the game well," he remarked.
In other words, one may develop the saving habit to such an extent that "Laugh and Live" can find no room beside us on the perch of our existence. We must admit that the systematic saver of pennies misses a lot as he goes along, and, with time, degenerates into a sort of "Kill Joy." In the matter of regulating his family to his way of thinking he usually has an uphill job.
This obvious truism is often forgotten by those who look on finance as an independent influence that can make money power out of nothing; and those who forget it are very likely to find themselves entangled in a maze of error. We can make the matter a little clearer if we go back to the original saver, whose money, or claims on industry, is handled by the professional financier.
That was evident, for there had been no response as the searchers burst out. "Are you sure this is the place?" asked Mr. Wilton, turning to the boys. "Positive," answered Joe. "Here's the pile of rocks on which the lantern was set," added Blake. "But there's no lantern here now," said Tom Cardiff. "Then they've skipped!" declared the life saver.
SIR P. Not to strangers, For those be they you must converse with most; Others I would not know, sir, but at distance, So as I still might be a saver in them: You shall have tricks eke passed upon you hourly. And then, for your religion, profess none, But wonder at the diversity of all." Sir Henry Wotton's letter to Milton must not be left out of account of Jacobean advice to travellers.
Kaetheli had learned all that, and had reported it to her father. The Mayor was quite satisfied with the outcome of the affair, and since he looked on Erick as the saver of his grapes, he now came to the pastor to talk over what could be done for the poor orphan.
Homage to will and word of the Master, apart from the acceptance of certain doctrines concerning him, was in her eyes not merely defective but dangerous. To love the Lord with the love of truest obedience; to believe him the son of God and the saver of men with absolute acceptance of the heart, was far from enough! it was but sentimental affection!
It was a woman, red and white, hating and loving, that called him with the voice of his hopes. Because no harm could come to it he endowed it with power. He kept near, as if it could be a saver of lives, and an imploring cry went from his mind. In the mad scramble he was aware that the color sergeant flinched suddenly, as if struck by a bludgeon.
"Just see our rescuer, Mr. Neal Nelson from the Colonade." "Oh, my little choker's brother!" exclaimed Julia, too delighted to think of the usual formalities. "And as I live, if it isn't Bobby's life saver!" declared the young man. "Well, turn about is surely fair play, and I'm glad I got my innings in."
He did not see how he was going to get his story telegraphed to the paper, but he was consoled by the reflection that there were no other reporters on hand, and that there was no immediate likelihood of being "beaten." When morning came he could decide what to do. So, for the time being, he became a life saver, and pulled on the long rope attached to the wagon until his arms ached.
