The hull family wuz a-doin' first rate, and their Pa and Ma wuz proud enough of 'em. And they felt well, for they knew that they wuz advancin' rapid, and with quick steps and with happy hearts. When she see the dark shadders of the past behind 'em the dretful shapes of ignorance and evil a-lurkin' in the heavy blackness from which they wuz emergin' her tender heart ached with sympathy.
She wuz in front of a good, meek-lookin' freckled woman, a-canvassin' her. Or, that is, she wuzn't exactly applyin' the canvas to her, but she wuz a-preparin' her for it. It seemed that she had been introduced to her, and wuz a-goin' to call on her the next day with the book. Sez I, advancin' onto her, "Arvilly Lanfear, did you really git here alive and well?"
He sat on the edge of the bunk, wriggling in his clothes, for his body crawled with lice. "Gee, it's funny to be in where the Fritzies were not long ago," he heard a voice say. "Kiddo! we're advancin'," came another voice. "But, hell, this ain't no kind of an advance. I ain't seen a German yet." "Ah kin smell 'em though," said Chrisfield, getting suddenly to his feet.
I may attend a meeting once in a while, later on, but I never shall hold office again. I have had all the 'advancement' I want." "Advancin' backwards, some folks would call what you're doin' now, Serena, I cal'late. There! I've said 'cal'late' again. I haven't said it before for a long time. This Cape sand has got into my grammar, I guess. I must be careful." "You needn't be.
An' the moral o' this little tale is that you're hittin' a fast clip for trouble when you go around prompt and aggressive to announce your own virtoos. I'm not advancin' any criticism as to your shinin' talents in the way of ridin', pard, but you haven't been long enough in this here vale of tears to be what you might call experienced."
When next they stopped Chrisfield was on the crest of the hill beside a battery of French seventy-fives.

"Say, tell 'em we're advancin'," he said to Andrews. "Are we?" said Andrews.
I had the satisfaction of telling him my opinion of him and his conduct before he left." "Ho! you did, hey? Humph! I wish I might have heard it. But, Gertie," his incredulity not entirely crushed, "it wasn't ALL make-believe; all of it couldn't have been. Even Zuba, she got the advancin' craziness. She joined a a 'Band, or somethin'." "No, she didn't. She pretended to, but she didn't.
And they struck out new paths for themselves, as the Pilgrim Fathers did. "And it is of these people, who represent the advancin' and progressive thought of the day, that Chicago is made up. It embodies the best energy and ambition of the Eastern States and of Europe." "Yes," sez Josiah, "that is jest so." And then, sez Mr. Bolster, "Chicago is, as is well known, in the very centre of the earth."
By the way, did Hiram speak to you about advancin' him what pay was comin' to him?" Jo's eyes narrowed. "No," she said coldly, "he didn't mention such a matter." Twitter-or-Tweet came back to her. "Listen," he said, "you owe him about twenty bucks. I want it. I'll need it. You slip it to Hiram, and I'll borrow it off o' him. You see " "Why, I'll do nothing of the sort!" she cried vehemently.
Th' Chairwoman iv th' dillygation recovered her voice an', advancin' to'rd a Sergeant who was thryin' to skin a pair iv fours down so that it wud look like a jack full to his ineebryated opponent, she said: 'Me brave man, d'ye ralize that that bottle is full iv th' Seed iv Desthruction? she says.
