Regular aisles run between ranges of native settees, bottomed with crossed braids of the cocoa-nut fibre, and furnished with backs.

Will you dance with me if I do?" "How many times?" he said, laughing.
There's nothing like a bird's-eye view of this region." "What are you talking about, Sylvia?" asked Miss Martha. "Why, I rode all over Casco Bay last night on a broomstick.
