But he was still in the game, an' he walked up to the cage an' ketched hold of the bars an' sorter shook 'em.
Miss Dobriner tapped a finger against her too red lips. "Seventy dollars net for a baby-carriage!" "Yes'm, and a bargain at that. If he was home he'd show you the books hisself and the prices we get." "Seventy dollars for a baby-carriage! For that, Phonzie, you can buy the kid a taxi."
I would make a solemn affidavit to the fact that the maker of a baby-carriage never dreamed of its possible use as an impromptu toboggan for a couple of small boys to coast downhill on in midsummer. Yet these things have been used for these various purposes in our own household experience.
"Don't fool yourself; it's no rubber-tired baby-carriage," said Slater. "Our men are afraid of it." After watching the device scuttle back and forth for a few moments O'Neil said shortly: "Post a notice at once, offering a thousand dollars for any man who cuts that cable."

It's like a big baby-carriage for twins, only it's pulled by a horse, and has a man in livery to drive it. The top's straw, and you get in in the middle, and sit both ways." "Either way, my dear," said Mrs. Chipperton. "Yes, either way," continued Corny. "Did you ever see a carriage like that?" "I surely never did," said I.

Her skirts of old, but rich, black fabric swept about her long, advancing limbs; she held her black-bonneted head high, as if crowned. She pushed the cumbersome baby-carriage with no apparent effort.

'Hero Jinks as an infant in arms, 'Hero Jinks in his baby-carriage, 'Hero Jinks as a schoolboy' what a fine series it would make! You know what I mean.
