Miss Walton stated her views in a quiet undertone of indignation, and not so much in answer to Gregory as in protest against a style of action utterly repugnant to her earnest, whole-souled nature.

I can't be here to see the game myself; I wish I could; but I fully expect to take up the paper a week from tomorrow morning and read that Brimfield has turned the trick again. And I expect to read, too, that a notable feature of the contest was the whole-souled, hearty support given the Maroon-and-Grey by their fellows! That's all I've got to say to you. The team's going to do its part.

Walker said when some one asked him why he did not sue the town?" "No; what was it?" "He said it was the luckiest day of his life when he pitched off the bridge." "Indeed!" "He has thought so much better of humanity since, and it introduced him to Tony Weston, whom he calls a hero in embryo." "Mr. Walker is a nice man a whole-souled man." "That he is!

Afloat on the river was technical knowledge enough, and to spare. Bob threw his men at the logs as he used to throw his backs at the opposing line. And they went. Even in the whole-souled, frantic absorption of the good coach he found time to wonder at the likeness of all men. These rivermen differed in no essential from the members of the squad.

"I've heard how the breed's stormin' New York in droves; but they tell me some of us need the money." "I dined with one last night, a sugar-cured ham magnate from Chicago." "Dear me! how shockin'!"

"Tom!" she called. "Yes?" he answered. "Will you come here, to us, for a moment? Let Muriel stay with Mawkins." "Right, oh!" he called, cheerily.

The observant regiment, standing at rest in the roadway, whooped at once, and entered whole-souled upon the side of the maiden.

The section foreman's name was Henry McDonald.

At the Heidelberg Inn one need never fear obtrusiveness on the part of other visitors, for here everybody attends strictly to his or her own party, enjoying a camaraderie that has all the genuine, whole-souled companionship found only where German families are accustomed to congregate to seek relaxation from the toil and worry of the day.
