Whinney was repeating parts of his talk and I noticed that Triplett's attention was wandering. His eye was firmly fixed on the flower in Kippy's hair. That called my attention to it and I saw that whenever my wife turned her head the blossom of the flower slowly turned in the opposite direction. Suddenly Triplett interrupted Whinney to say in a rather shaky voice, "Mrs.
Traprock, if you please, would you mind facin' a-stern." I motioned to Kippy to obey, which she would have done anyway. "An' now," said the Captain, "kindly face forrard." Same business. The flower slowly turned on Kippy's head! Stretching forth a trembling hand, Triplett plucked the blossom from Kippy's hair!
It slipped between Kippy's fingers. "I'll get it," I cried, making ready to dive, but she shouted a warning. "Arani electi. Oki Kutiaa!""Look out! The snapping oysters!"
"That would mess up a man's dealing hand, wouldn't it?" "The last two jokers who were too cheap to feed the machine had to have 'em off. Their arms, I mean. That lead's heavy stuff." "I don't suppose your machine has a habit of getting stuck, like Kippy's?" The broad-shouldered man frowned. "You're a stranger," he said, "You don't know any better." "It's a fair game, Mister," someone called.
