James talks United States, I am not alarmed, but when he begins to roll it out with a bur on his tongue, as if his mouth were full of hot mush, I am scared to death." In Eighteen Hundred Ninety-three, James Oliver spent several months at the Chicago Exposition. He was one of the World's-Fair Commissioners. Hundreds of people shook hands with him daily.
The English colonists, not only kept up variances among themselves, bur also perplexed the governor with their complaints of hardships and grievances.
"You know very well: Paula." "Paula!" said Mary, and her large eyes again filled with tears. "Is it possible? Did you not love her as much as I do? Have not you often and often clung about her like a bur?" "Yes, yes, very true. But before the judges she was so intolerably proud, and then. But believe me, Mary you really and truly cannot understand anything of all this."
The battle was over and won. Ten minutes later Andrew had cinched a real saddle in place, and she bore the weight of the leather without a stir. The memory of that first saddle and the biting of the bur beneath it had been gradually wiped from her mind, and the new saddle was connected indisolubly with the voice and the hand of the man.

"Do you want a drink?" asked Susie, taking the tin dipper which always hung by the spring.
"It was not the creature's plea that moved me, nor his pretended deductions; I'm a bit old to be soft. It was the 'banker man' sticking like a bur in the hobo's talk. I wanted to keep him in sight until I understood where he got it. No doubt that seems a slight reason for going out to the Inlet with the creature; but you must remember that slight things are often big signboards in our business."
He saw the danger in an instant, and his first words were characteristic: "Now don't don't, now, I tell you, Mr. Guy you may hit Chub!" "Come down, then, you rascal!" was the reply, as, with a laugh, lowering the weapon, he awaited the descent of the spy. "And now, Bur, what have you to say that I shouldn't wear out a hickory or two upon you?" "My name ain't Bur, Mr.
It had never taken so long, to draw the precious Infant forth. He held it up to the hall lights. He wanted to make sure that it was really as brown and as beautiful as it had always seemed to him.
