When the two midnight visitors stole timorously forth a moment later, Bea's eyes traveled wistfully toward the big envelope lying squarely on top of all the valentines. Berta regarded her keenly. "Why don't you march up and read the name, if you want to so much?" was her blunt question.
Leading juniors real, live, brand-new juniors and to display such lack of self-restraint, such disdain of gracefulness and repose! Oh!" her voice changed magically, "oh, you, dear sweet, darling girls, I love you pretty well." "Then why," queried Berta, gasping as she released herself, "then why, I repeat, do you endeavor to choke us to death?"
But I'll set you an example of frankness by telling his name. My friend, Mr. Julian, to whom you posted the book. Such changes as he has seen! from affluence to poverty. He and his sister have been playing dances all night at Wyndway What is the matter? 'Only a pain! 'My dear Picotee 'I think I'll sit down for a moment, Berta. 'What have you over-walked yourself, dear?
I don't know whether she used it or not. At luncheon she appeared with her fingers inky and her hat on. Berta said, "Whither, my child?" She answered, "Down town."

Martha turned her face toward me and sat gazing like a little dog.
Fraulein Berta, the governess of Sonya's younger sister, made censorious remarks about barbarous Russia. All the acquaintances of the Svetilovitches were also indignant.

To be sure, all the more or less independent people in town paid the Svetilovitches visits of sympathy.
Elisetta became the mother of the wicked bastards Lanfroi and Olderigi, while Berta lived in retirement in the cottage of a hunter on the banks of the Magno, a river about five leagues from Paris. Pipino lost himself while out hunting one day, took refuge in the cottage, saw Berta, did not recognize his lawful, wedded wife and fell in love with her over again.
You see, you are just like a brother to me, Daddy." "I see," said Daddy, chuckling. "When it comes to chimney fires and such excitement, a boy comes in handy, is that it?" "Why ye-es, Berta Warring ran away, crying, and I couldn't do much but squeal myself," said Janice gravely. "And telephone for the Fire Department, and help me out, and aid Gummy to carry up the salt, and "
"Hammy and Berta made great friends with me the other day.... Tell them I haven't forgotten the promise to rummage up some odd native toys I picked up in Rhodesia made of mud and feathers and bits of fur and queerly-shaped seed-pods the most enchanting collection of birds and beasts that ever came out of the Ark.
"Where are the apple-blossoms?" asked Berta in polite greeting as they met at the elevator. "I've b-b-b-been studying b-b-b-bobolinks," Bea's teeth chattered. "It's original to follow birds in the rain." "But" Berta's eyes snapped, "I myself when I did it I wore a gym suit and a mackintosh and rubber boots. Of all the idiots!"
When Miss Anglin put a little note of expostulation, so to speak, on the theme about the corridor it was, "This is a course in English, not mathematics, if you please," Berta started her in on the picture gallery.
