It carried her through that trouble and into others of which her woman's heart had found abundant signs in the attitude of Mr. Davis. He gave the most assiduous attention to the comfort of Bim and her mother. He had had a celebrated physician come down from Milwaukee to see Mrs. Kelso and had paid the bill in advance. He bought a new and wonderful swinging crib of burnished steel for the baby.
"Look here, Bim," he said aloud, "I've left you up I really am going off my head!" he thought. He hurried away. "If I am mad I'm awfully happy," he said.

"Did you ever see a fairy going to mill on a butterfly's back?" Bim asked, looking at Harry. "Not as I remember," he answered. "If you had, you wouldn't expect us to believe it," Bim asserted.

"Bim has to milk a cow that's the reason," said Ann. "I'd like to come over and see her do it," said Mr. Biggs. "If you do I'll milk in your face honest I will," said Bim. "I wouldn't care if it rained milk.
"Come on down here," Ann urged. "I'm scared," was the answer. "His cheeks are as red as roses and he's got a lovely ring and big watch chain pure gold and yaller as a dandelion. You come down here."

"What is the messenger's name?" asks Cousrouf, wearily.
The fishermen, who stood there awaiting him, greeted the young bim bashi with loud huzzas. They wished him happiness and success in his military career. Osman thanked them in a loud, clear voice, and no one knew what pain the effort cost him.
Before she finished the first line they were all singing with her, and never did this grand old hymn of thanksgiving find a more fervent utterance. As for Bim, there never was a happier bull-dog in this world. He barked as long as his voice held out, and jumped up on every one, and tore wildly about the room until his chain fastened itself to a table leg.
