I jes' don't see how the old man's gwinter talk to you much longer 'thout he goes to school agin." "No Ben Butler is a answer to prayer," he went on. "The trouble with the world is it don't pray enough. Prayer puts God into us, Bud we're all a little part of God, even the worst of us, an' we can make it big or let it die out accordin' as we pray. If we stop prayin' God jes' dies out in us.
"A quiet night, Master Miles" this the mate could call me, as it implied superiority on his part "A quiet night, Master Miles," commenced Mr. Marble, "and a strong westerly current, accordin' to Captain Robbins. Well, to my taste gooseberries are better than currents, and I'd go about. That's my manner of generalizing." "The captain, I suppose, sir, from that, is of a different opinion?"
Then there appeared paragraphs in the paper. The girl asked her father about them. He shook his head. "I don't understand it, my dear," he said. "And what's more, I don't believe Mr. Silver do himself. I see the accounts published in the paper. Accordin' to them the Bank had five millions in cash. You'd think you couldn't go very fur wrong with five millions in cash in the till."
Downstairs, on the way out of the place, if by chance he encountered the warden in his office, the warden, in all likelihood, would say: "Well, how about it this time, Uncle Tobe?" And Uncle Tobe would make some such answer as this: "Well, suh, accordin' to my reckonin' this here one will heft about a hund'ed an' sixty-five pound, ez he stands now. How's he takin' it, warden?" "Oh, so-so."
"Married! That child?" "She wasn't no child, Mr. Brooks. We were deceived. My brother was a fool, and men don't understand these things. She was a grown woman accordin' to these folks' ways and ages when she kem here. And that's what bothered me."
I felt like another kind of fool when she told me she was goin' to make one, as a 'sweet, for dinner to-night. As nigh as I can make out it's a sort of gooseberry pie, but I should never have called a gooseberry pie a 'sweet'; a 'sour' would have been better, accordin' to my reckonin'. However, all desserts over here are 'sweets' and fruit is dessert.

The Lord sartinly had women in mind when He made the yarb, and a kindly feelin' fur their infarmities, and, I dare say, they be grateful accordin' to their knowledge."
And now she lays there jest as peaceful as a new-born babe, that is, accordin' to the sayin' about 'em; for as to peaceful new-born babes, I never see one that come t' anything, that did n't screech as ef the haouse was afire 'n' it wanted to call all the fire-ingines within ten mild." The Doctor smiled, but he became thoughtful in a moment.
Maloney's for the key accordin'; but directly I see the locks in your chambers, I says to myself, the gentleman's locks ain't out of order; the gentleman don't want all his locks repaired." "But you stayed half an hour." "Yes, sir; for there was one lock out of order the door nighest the staircase and I took it off and cleaned it and put it on again.
But gien I gang on this gait, we'll be beginnin as we left aff last nicht, and maybe fa' to strife! And we hae to loe ane anither, not accordin to what the ane thinks, or what the ither thinks, but accordin as each kens the Maister loes the ither, for he loes the twa o' us thegither." "But hoo ken ye that he's pleased wi' ye?" "I said naething aboot that: I said he loes you and me!"
