Mallory comes back lookin' like some one had sold him a billboard seat to a free window show. But that was nothin' to the down-and-out slump I found him in next night, when I goes around for my writin' lesson and so on. "Is it the spino comeandgetus," says I, "or has Miss Tuttifrutti sent back your Christmas card?" "It's worse than either," says he, with his chin on the top button of his vest.
And she doesn't yet see that she has done anything extraordinary, or that she had a faith in Uncle Sam that I call sublime." The Journal had been calling the attention of its readers to the defacement of the landscape by billboard advertisers. One day on his way to New York he found himself sitting in a sleeping-car section opposite a woman and her daughter.
Henry, you will attend to the paste-making, beginning tomorrow. This being a billboard town, I am going to skip it and get into the territory where the opposition is stronger. I have arranged with the local billposters to take care of the work here." "That is all I have to say just now, boys. When you have anything to ask or to suggest, you know where the office is. Mr.
We want you to make this your room when you come to town it will be open every day from eight o'clock in the morning until six o'clock in the evening. There'll be tables there where you can do any writing you want, and a billboard to stick up notices of anything you've got for sale. I hope you'll make good use of the Bureau.
At the end the proud structure was a lonely obelisk furred in a green covering to the very flagpole on its peak, from which waved disappointed yet still aspiring runners.

Jerry disdained to reply or to let his enraptured gaze wander for a moment from the dazzling poster. Curiosity soon got the better of Chris and he started to walk back. "El'funt!" shouted Chris, when he was near enough to see the poster. His shout started the whole Mullarkey brood galloping towards the billboard. "The circus!" cried Danny, from the superior experience of his nine years.
Directly after cutting Grace Harlowe, she had turned her runabout into Main Street, where a billboard had caught her eye, displaying in glaring red and blue lettering the fact that the "Peerless Dramatic Company" would open a week's engagement in Oakdale with daily matinées. Eleanor's eyes sparkled. She halted her machine, scanning curiously the list of plays on the billboard.
"Oh, look, Allee! See the elephants and lions and giraffes and zebras on that poster. It's the cirkis as sure as I'm alive! Do you know I've always wanted to see the cirkis, and this is the first time I ever knew one to stop at Parker." "How do you know it will stop here?" asked skeptical Allee, who was just beginning to read, and found the long words on the billboard too much for her to master.
London, his last resort, is as bewildered as New York; and so, at last, here it is. It has to be faced now and here, as if it were some great scare-head or billboard on the world, "WHERE ARE WE GOING?"
