Their little friend, the thin fish, had gone up to the King, and was talking very earnestly to him, and presently returning said that His Majesty had decided to give them all a prize. "Oh, I wonder what it will be!" said Marjorie, excitedly. "Fancy, having a prize from a real King!" "He's only a fish," said Dick. "Hush, dear, you'll hurt his feelings," whispered Marjorie, warningly.
Captain Whalley's muscular hands squeezed the iron rail with an extraordinary force; his eyes glared with an enormous effort; he knitted his eyebrows, the perspiration fell from under his hat, and in a faint voice he murmured, "Steady her, Serang when she is on the proper bearing." The silent Malay stepped back, waited a little, and lifted his arm warningly to the helmsman.
The engine shrieked warningly at intervals, the train rumbled hollowly over short bridges and across pikes, swung round the hills, and plunged with wild warnings past little towns hid in the snow, with only here and there a light shining dimly. One of the drummers now and then rose up from his cramped bed on the seats, and swore cordially at the railway company for not heating the cars.
He seemed to be yawning and stretching in his beautiful bed, the sun shining in, his books, foils, pictures around him, to say good morning and tempt him to rise, while the squat little clock on the mantel struck eleven warningly. A farm in the valley!
"If you aren't kind to little Marie, I shall tell Uncle Kalle," said Pelle warningly. She spat contemptuously. "Then you can tell him. Yes, I wish to God you'd do it! Then he'd come and take her away, and delighted I should be!" But now Due was heard stamping on the flags outside the door, and they could hear him too consoling the child.
Betsy laughed and pulled the watering pot off from Hank's head. The little mule was angry at the treatment he had received and backed toward the Gardener threateningly. "Look out for his heels!" called Betsy warningly and the Gardener scrambled to his feet and hastily hid behind the Roses. "You are breaking the Law!" he shouted, sticking out his head to glare at the girl and the mule.
The other day, as we were talking, she tapped the edge of her Ivanhoe with a slate-pencil for she is also studying the Greatest Common Divisor and said, warningly, "You must not make epigrams; for if you succeeded you would be brilliant, and everything brilliant is tiresome." "Who is your authority for that epigram, Miss Sylvia?" I said, laughing.
But ah Washington does not look at it in exactly the same way." Sally touched Joe warningly. But her face was very bright and proud. Joe felt queer. "Joe," said the Major tiredly, "was an alternate for membership in the Platform's crew. But for penicillin, or something of the sort that made a sick man get well quickly, Joe would be up there in the Platform's orbit now.
"Sir," said Major Doyle, stiffly, "you are pleased to be impertinent. Ride on, you rascals, and spare us further sight of you." The man turned upon him a scowling face. "Don't interfere," he said warningly. "This isn't your party, you old duffer!" "Drive ahead, Wampus," commanded Uncle John. Wampus had to get out and crank the engines, which he calmly proceeded to do.
Meg Kissock came along the passage with the healthy glow of the night air on her cheeks, and her candle in her hand. She seemed as if she would pause at the door, but Winsome motioned her imperiously within. So Meg came within, and Winsome shut to the door. Then she simply held out her hand, at which Meg gazed as silently. "Meg!" said Winsome, warningly.
