It is one of the most delicious sparkling waters I have ever tasted, as gratifying to the palate and soothing to the fevered mucous membranes as Apollinaris or Shasta Water, and I am not alone in the wish I often express, viz., that I might have such a spring in my backyard at home. One result of this discovery was that Mr. Gilmore decided to locate upon the land.
And the enamored, if usurping, duke wept bitterly and tore his hair to such an extent he totally destroyed his best toupet. And privily the Guy Fawkes came into the presence of the exiled duke and prated of a restoration to ancestral dignities. And he was spurned by a certain highly intelligent person who considered it both tedious and ridiculous to play at being emperor of a backyard.
He was not expecting to meet anybody, for all interest was centered in the other part of the house now; his calculation proved correct. By the time he was passing through the backyard, Mrs. Pratt, her servants, and a dozen half-dressed neighbors had joined the twins and the dead, and accessions were still arriving at the front door.
And couldn't he? Newspapers spread over the beds and tied around the dahlias would save them, Tommy knew. He had seen Miss Octavia doing it other springs. And he knew there was a big box of newspapers in a little shed in her backyard. Ned Williams had told him there was, and that the shed was never locked. Tommy hurried home as quickly as he could and got a ball of twine out of his few treasures.
But I was too sensible to mar my present joy with useless regrets. The future was bright with anticipation and rich with promise, and my heart grew light. And Fido poor Fido would be glad of the change, too, for I am sure it must have taxed his love for me to stay in the goods-box which I had converted into a kennel and placed in the small backyard.

Immediately we were overwhelmed with suggestions and advice as to the particular kind of driveway we really ought to have. This clinches and rivets the advice.
The thunder of bowls echoed from the backyard; swingels hung behind the blower of the chimney; and ex-poachers and ex-gamekeepers, whom squires had persecuted without a cause, sat elbowing each other men who in past times had met in fights under the moon, till lapse of sentences on the one part, and loss of favour and expulsion from service on the other, brought them here together to a common level, where they sat calmly discussing old times.
When July came the heat settled down in earnest on the panting city. "Aren't you going to take any vacation?" asked Raymond. He and Joan were sauntering up Fifth Avenue to a certain haven in a backyard where the fountain played and the birds sang. "No. I'm going to stay in town and let Miss Gordon have her outing. The Brier Bush is too young to be left alone this year.
I'm not humbugging." "Shut up, Bobs!" said Anthea. "Silence for the Squirrel's oration," said Robert. Cyril balanced himself on the edge of the water-butt in the backyard, where they all happened to be, and spoke. "Friends, Romans, countrymen and women we found a Sammyadd. We have had wishes.
The best way to get rid of the sawdust and shavings is to set up an altar, such as we have in our own backyard a piece of an old boiler about two feet in diameter and two and a half feet high, in which we currently burn all rubbish which is not available for quick composting into a fertilizer. Lime on Sandy Soil.
