We must ride, where we formerly walked: live better, and lie softer and shall be wise to do so than we had means to do in those good old days you speak of. Yet could those days return could you and I once more walk our thirty miles a-day could Bannister and Mrs.
At this moment there ran through Dora a sensation similar to that occasioned by a mild galvanic shock, but as she was looking out of the open door, the rest of the company saw no signs of this. "Excuse me," said Mrs. Bannister, in a low voice, and speaking rather rapidly, "but I thought that Miss Drane was working for Dr. Tolbridge, copying, or something of that kind."
The Kid came at me to soak me, but I soaked him first and put him out. It's the only thing to do, ma'am, when you're up against it. Get in the first wallop before the other guy can get himself set for his punch. 'Kirk, I says, 'don't you wait for old man Bannister to tell you you can't marry Miss Ruth. Marry her before he can say it. I wish you'd tell him the same thing, ma'am.
That must have been it, for Ralph is desperately fond of every kind of pastry. I will go into the house this minute, and make him some raspberry tarts. We shall have them for supper, even if they give him the nightmare. I am not going to have him say again that he wished the new cook, as he kept calling Dora Bannister, had stayed a little longer."

She said, with her good-byes, that Mr. Bannister must come and dine with them. "Gosh, I see myself!" ejaculated Wallace ungratefully, as he walked with Martie to the gate.
A similar idea to the above was given in O'Keefe's Pantomime of "Harlequin Teague; or the Giants' Causeway," performed at the Haymarket in 1782. Charles Bannister appeared in this Pantomime and sang a duet as a giant with two heads, one side representing a gentleman of quality, and the other a hunting squire. Mrs.

"Those are the orders of the King, are they?" Burns flushed darkly. "It ain't going to do you any good to talk that way. You know mighty well this here man with you is Bannister. I ain't going to take no chances on losing him now I've got my hand on him." "Y'u ce'tainly deserve a re-election, and I'll bet y'u get it all right.
A dozen travelers dropped in every day, but this particular one happened to be Ned Bannister. From the stable door a shot rang out. Bannister ducked and shouted genially: "Try again."
