It is a standing desk which can be lowered or heightened at will, so that one who wishes to scribble a line or so may use it without sitting down. This desk is called a bureau d'architect. I found it in Biarritz. It would be quite easy to have one made by a good cabinet-maker, for the lines and method of construction are simple.
The younger reporter came over and took down the information as the cop and the two toughs gave it to the sergeant. Then he went back to his seat at the card table and took a minityper from his pocket. He started sending to the paper. "You ought to send that stuff direct," the card player said. "I scribble too bad," the reporter answered.
For I wrote, before, with pleasure and at ease; but now my decaying memory and enfeebled brain have made me almost incapable of work, and I have nothing to tell of but treacheries, perfidies, and torturing memories. The walls around me have ears; I am encompassed by spies and vigilant enemies. Racked with anxiety and fear, I scribble page after page without revising them.
Now he had slipped back to second place. It must have been nearly an hour later that a messenger boy handed James a note. It was a hasty scribble from Rawson. Euchred, by thunder! Both Jeff and I missed them. Big Tim butted in with a car at Grover Street before we could make connections. Am waiting at the House for them. Don't bring A. & R. in till time to vote.
And you would do well to keep a blank paper book, which the Germans call an ALBUM; and there, instead of desiring, as they do, every fool they meet with to scribble something, write down all these things as soon as they come to your knowledge from good authorities.

All that we have done is perfectly possible to any adventurous youth, no matter what his age.

When the latter was able to examine her correspondence, Diana brought her the heap for perusal, her own sealed scribble, throbbing with all the fatal might-have-been, under her eyes. She could have concealed and destroyed it. She sat beside her friend, awaiting her turn, hearing her say at the superscription: 'Your writing, Tony? and she nodded.
Come here. You may as well know. This is a rough scribble from Sergeant Ripsy." "Good news, sir?" burst out Archie sharply. "Not likely, my lad no. He writes of his safe arrival at what he calls the elephant-pens, and as a matter of course too late. The place is quite deserted not a man there and the elephants have all been driven off.
There seems to be a sort of fatality in my mind leading me to put at first my statement or proposition in a wrong or awkward form. Formerly I used to think about my sentences before writing them down; but for several years I have found that it saves time to scribble in a vile hand whole pages as quickly as I possibly can, contracting half the words; and then correct deliberately.
I'll just scribble a little note to tell her so, and thank her, then I must go." "She'll just never forgive me if I let you," protested the young woman. I began to be a little afraid that I might be detained by well-meant force; but when I had written a letter to Mrs.
