"Yes, I know you did. And a meaner, low-liveder proposal I never heard from mortal lips, be he male, or be he female. The idee of me, Josiah Allen's wife, who has locked arms with principle, and has kep' stiddy company with it, for years and years the idee of me buyin' a feller! I dare persume to say"
There are six or eight little girls at each of these springs who hand the water to the guests and they have to work spry to keep 'em all supplied. It wuz a remarkable coincidence that royalty so soon after havin' the advantage of a interview and advice from Josiah Allen's wife should agin have the privilege of listenin' to her invaluable precepts.
My platoon and Allen's platoon were in a trench on the right of the Vlamertinghe-Ypres road, across the field stretching from the road to the railway. Dickinson was in command of B Company. We had our Headquarters in a little wooden dug-out in the centre of the field behind the trench. Battalion Headquarters were at the Café Belge a house on the right of the road close by.

"If I had not wronged and insulted you " "You did neither, Patty," I broke in; "I have played a double part for the first and last time in my life, and I have been justly punished for it." "'Twas I sent you to the Coffee House," she cried, "where you might have been killed. How I despise myself for listening to Mr. Allen's tales!" "Then it was Mr. Allen!" I exclaimed, fetching a long breath.
They all had great hopes, but, alas! they were doomed to disappointment. For either Allen's system was wrong, or else the cipher did not follow the plan of any of the well known ones. They succeeded in deciphering it, after a fashion, but the result was a meaningless jumble of words that told them nothing. The word "treasure" did not even occur; that is, according to the translation made by Allen.
He'll git it in time, if he ain't gone to the Lazy K with Buck McKee," said Sage-brush; then, turning to the other cowboys, he added in an aggrieved tone: "Polly ain't got no eyes for no one excep' Bud." Polly stepped to Allen's side, and, laying her head on his shoulder, said: "Ain't I?" Allen patted the girl's head. He was very fond of her, looking upon her as another daughter.
What he purposes to do hereafter will be learned in the course of this article. So much for Alien's falsely reputed conversion! As for the other men's reformation, that is as absolutely a piece of humbuggery as Allen's.
