"Oh, papa," said Louison, as she greeted him, "I do love you but I dread that tickly old mustache. Mon Dieu! what a lover you must have been!" Then she presented me, and put her hand upon my arm, looking proudly at her father. "My captain!" said she. "Did you ever see a handsomer Frenchman?"
"Not tickly and bristly," said Tiny with firmness; and she strutted up the walk for a space or two, and then turned round to laugh over her shoulder. "Good-night!" shouted her victim, shaking his fist after her.
"'Don't like being called a gypsy, and don't like being kissed' written large all over her face eh, Blanche?" said Mr. Forester mischievously. "Papa, you are a horrid tease. Go away and leave us in peace. I don't wonder Marjory doesn't like your nasty, tickly kisses." "Oh dear, please don't send me away," he said in mock dismay. "Mayn't I stay if I promise to be very, very good?"
He shifted his hand along her arm with soft sensuousness, and she, looking down at his lips, remembered the long tingling they had given hers the first time they had met. "Go on and talk," he urged, after a delicious five minutes of silence. "I like to watch your lips talking. It's funny, but every move they make looks like a tickly kiss." Greatly she wanted to stay where she was.
I gave her the second when she came to me about the twentieth of the month and kissed me on the ear and sent a tickly little whisper after it to the effect that the household appropriation for the month was exhausted and the pork-barrel and the meal-sack and the chicken-coop were in the same enfeebled condition.
Sometimes Unc' Billy wished that he was back in the old hollow tree, and sometimes he was glad that he was right where he was. Sometimes he felt little shivers of fear run all over him as he thought of what might become of him if he should be found. Sometimes a little tickly feeling of pleasure ran all over him, as he bit a hole in the end of a freshly laid egg and sucked the egg out of the shell.
"I have not!" cried Flossie. "Those are melted snowflakes. I wanted to get some in my ear, so they'd make a funny, tickly feeling," she went on, "but there wouldn't any fall in. Some sat on my cheeks, though, and melted, and it's those what you see, Freddie Bobbsey, and not tears at all! I hardly ever cry, so there!" "You cried when I busted your doll," Freddie said.
God never made anything more beautiful than those butterflies, with their wings of brightly painted velvet down, their bright eyes, their curious antennae, and their queer, tickly feet. Laddie had promised me a book telling all about every kind there was, the first time he went to a city, so I was wishing I had it, and was among my pet beauties with it, when I discovered him bending over me.
Like an Arabian Nights' transformation, our sleepy, purring, but still able to scratch, "pussy cat" flashes out as a ravenous man-eating tiger, killing and maiming right and left. Measles harmless, tickly, snuffly, "measly" little measles kills from thirty to sixty per cent of whole villages and tribes of Indians and cripples half the remainder!
