They were not unlike, the two children. This boy was more sturdy, not so fine, perhaps, but eminently likable. He was courageous, too. The iodine had not been pleasant, but he had only whistled. "And nothing happened to the other boy, because of the germs?" "I don't know. He never came back. He was a funny boy. He had a hat like father's. Gee!" Nikky took his departure, followed by Pepy's eyes.
Then he arose and leaped into the water, at the same time pushing the little craft away from him with his foot. Cries resounded, and soon some distance away the youth's head appeared, as if for breathing, then instantly disappeared. "There, there he is!" cried several voices, and again the bullets whistled. The police boat and the boat from the Pasig now started in pursuit of him.
The outmost tip of that chain was only a distant smudge lying low on the water. "The largest ... that one with trees." Shann whistled. Since the night of the storm the wolverines were again more amenable to the very light discipline he tried to keep. Perhaps the fury of that elemental burst had tightened the bond between men and animals, both alien to this world.
After some time he whistled, but receiving no response, kept driving through the forest until evening, when a loud, shrill whistle at last replied to his, and on reaching a cross-road, he found the whole band dancing with great merriment round a large sign-board which had been stuck up there by the authorities, and on which was painted a gipsy lying under the gallows, while the executioner stood over him in the act of applying the torture, and beneath ran the inscription
Raish said that he wanted to know and waited for his passenger to say something more. This the passenger did not do. Mr. Pulcifer whistled a bar or two of his "Follies" song and then asked another question. "You any relation to Josh?" he asked. "I beg your pardon?" "Eh? Oh, that's all right. I just asked you if you was a relation of Josh's of Hall's, I mean, the folks you're goin' to see."
"I'm blessed if I know!" the collector said. "The honly explanation I can give is that a gent who was seated here has dissolved the hot weather has melted him like butter!" At this there was a shout of laughter, the inspector slammed the door, the guard whistled, and the next moment the train was off.
Not far from my cliff home is the famous Cheltro Palace, which contains over thirty million blocks of stone." "How big is it?" asked Wilbur. "Well, it is four stories high, nearly five hundred feet long, an' just half that width." Wilbur whistled. "My stars," he ejaculated, "that is big! And is there nothing left to tell about them?" he asked. The other shook his head. "Nothing," he answered.

He breathed the dewy freshness, and presently he whistled the "Spring Song" of Mendelssohn, that bubbling, half-joyous, half-plaintive little prayer in melody. He was well into the spirit of the time and place. His soul sang.
Fitzgerald whistled softly. "Has he ever found any?" "Not so much as a postage stamp, so far as I know. Money's always been in the family, and his Wall Street friends have shown him how to double what he has, from time to time. Just for the sport of the thing some old fellows go in for crockery, some for pictures, and some for horses. The admiral just hunts treasures.
