"Your foreign ceremonies are clean thrown away on me," he said, as Toff tried to stop him in the hall. "I'm the American savage; and I'm used up with travelling all night. Here's a little order for you: whisky, bitters, lemon, and ice I'll take a cocktail in the library." Toff made a last desperate effort to get between the visitor and the door.
He was a hard-faced Customer who was fighting the Climate with Gin and Bitters, but they fell upon him and wanted to Kiss him when they learned that he had once met Selena's Uncle at Colorado Springs. They told him how to save time in getting across India, and he gave them a list of Places in China and Japan that might be dodged to advantage.
Tom made a shift to get into his company overnight, and diverted him so much with his facetious conversation that he invited him to breakfast with him the next morning. Tom took occasion to put a strong purge into the ale and toast which the Londoner was drinking, he himself pretending never to take anything in the morning but a glass of wine and bitters.
Then regaining it, he returned it to me, with a low reverence. Griffiths subsequently informed me, that the fellow refused to work during all the rest of the day, and did nothing but smile, laugh, and talk to himself. "Allow me to offer you a glass of bitters, sir," said the queer- looking personage before mentioned; he was a corpulent man, very short, and his legs particularly so.
"How do you enjoy being a stroller?" asked a voice, interrupting the soldier's reverie. "It has its bitters and its sweets, hasn't it? Especially its sweets!"

"Give me the course of your day, Daisy. And by-the-by when does your day begin?" "It begins at half past seven, Dr. Sandford." "With breakfast?" "No, sir. I have a recitation before breakfast." "Please of what?" "Miss Pinshon always begins with mathematics." "As a bitters. Do you find that it gives you an appetite?" By this time I was very near bursting into tears.
Winthrop very judiciously mixes his sweets and bitters," Mrs. Flaxman said with a smile. "Yes; I should be too vain if he gave me a compliment really. I wonder if he ever will do that?" I looked up into his face and saw that its expression was kindly. "You would not wish me to spoil you. If my praising you made you vain, as you just said it would, that would be the worst unkindness."
The trade-breeze, as it rose, brought off the swamps a sickly smell, suggestive of the need of coffee, quinine, Angostura bitters, or some other febrifuge.
But Bitters wholesome be: offended pride now allied with strong good sense to wither a wild affection; and, as it was no longer fed by the presence of its object, her wound healed, all but the occasional dull throbbing that precedes a perfect cure. At this stage of her convalescence Dr. Wolf told her in an off-hand way that Mr.
Lewes has found a book by an Italian named Franchi, formerly a priest, on the present condition of philosophy in Italy. He emerges from its depths or shallows to send his best remembrances; and to Bice he begs especially to recommend Plantation Bitters.
