Bandy-legs managed to do as he was told, though he was shaking so by this time that he almost let the gun drop. "Hold on, no use wasting another shot. I reckon he's done for," was what he heard Trapper Jim say. "And you've been and gone and killed a real live bear, Bandy-legs!" said Max. The boy heaved a sigh as he gave back the rifle.
Shaking off his stupor at last, Monsieur de Lucan called out several times in a loud and almost harsh voice: "Julia! Julia!" As she remained motionless still, he ran down into the ravine, took some water in the hollow of his hand, and bathed her temples with it. In the course of a minute or two, he saw her eyes opening in the darkness, and he helped her raise her head.
"But I'm sorry I did it, and there'll be a big row." "Mind shaking hands with me, sergeant?" "No, my lad not a bit." "Hah!" ejaculated Jerry after the operation. "That was a real honest English grip, and I wish Dick Smithson had been there to hear you take his part. He'll never come back now!" "He will," said the sergeant, drily. "Not he. Never show his face here again." "No!

I almost think I shall go up with you, Cynthia, for a day or two, just to see her with my own eyes. I don't quite like your travelling alone either. We will think about it, and you shall write to Mr.
"I have been in an ugly sort of dream, I think. How are you, father? Are you pretty well?" "Strong and brave, my boy," returned the old man. It was quite a sight to see Mr. William shaking hands with his father, and patting him on the back, and rubbing him gently down with his hand, as if he could not possibly do enough to show an interest in him. "What a wonderful man you are, father!
"Well, take good care of yourself," warned Allan, a little uneasily; for it was almost on his lips to ask why he might not be permitted to keep the scout-master company, for he did hate so much to see Thad pull out alone. He insisted on gravely shaking hands before he would leave his partner, to return to the camp under the rocky shelf.
"Ye've made a bad shtar-rt wid um," he said, shaking his head. "Ye eyed 'im down in th' grub-shack, an' he hates ye fer ut. How ye got by wid ut Oi don't know, fer he's a scr-rapper from away back, an' av he'd sailed into ye Oi'm thinkin' he'd knocked th' divil out av ye, fer he's had experience, which ye ain't. But he didn't dast to, an' he knows ut, an' he knows that the men knows ut.
"Certainly you shall have it, if it will be any comfort to you," she answered, with her own sweet smile. "You must not be too exacting towards Elsie, my son," said his mother, shaking up his pillows for him, and settling him comfortably on them; "she is always so ready to sacrifice herself for others that she would not, I fear, refuse such a request, however much it might cost her to grant it.
Shaking hands with small boys, however, is nothing uncommon in Norway. Every boy on the entire route shook hands with me. Whenever I settled the fare the skydskaarl invariably pulled off his cap, or, if he had none, gave a pull at the most prominent bunch of hair, and holding forth a flipper, more or less like a lump of raw beef, required me, by all the laws of politeness, to give it a shake.
The pulp is flowing onward, and so the tiny fibers would naturally straighten out and flow with it, like sticks in a river; but the wire screen is kept shaking sideways, and this helps the fibers to interlace, and the paper becomes nearly as strong one way as the other.
