"Surely, you will," grinned Dick. "You've got to!" "I've been studying until all the words on a page seem to run together, and I don't know one word from another," complained Dave. "Then drop study -if you dare to!" "I'm thinking of it," proposed Darrin seriously. "Actually, I've been boning so that the whole thing gets on my nerves, and stays there like a cargo of lead."

Some of the plebes were negligent and regardless of the fact that the January examinations were close at hand, while others were "boning" steadily, doing their level best to stand well in their classes. For all of his mischievous disposition, Frank was studying enough to hold his own in his class, and he was looked on favorably by his instructors.

"I don't know how to thank you!" exclaimed Link, gratefully. "Then don't try," advised Andy, with a smile. Andy was "boning" on his German, with which he had had considerable difficulty. The dusk was settling down that early December day, and he was thinking of lighting a lamp to continue work on his books, when he heard a familiar step, and a whistle down the corridor.

"Let's see," suggested Andy, rather glad of the diversion and of the chance to stop studying, for he had been "boning" hard. "But I don't want any satsuma pattern, nor yet a cloisonne," he added. "Say, forget that," begged Ikey. "That Jap took me in, as well as he did you fellows." "Well, if anybody can take you in, Ikey, he's a good one!" laughed Dunk.

Turkeys when good are white and plump, have full breasts and smooth legs, generally black, with soft, loose spurs; hen turkeys are smaller, fatter, and plumper, but of inferior flavor; full grown turkeys are the best for boning and boiling, as they do not tear in dressing; old turkeys have long hairs, and the flesh is purplish where it shows under the skin on the legs and back.

"Oh, Old Gunn just put me back that's all." "But you are fully as good a scholar as I am, and you could have gone ahead into the first section if you had braced up." "Perhaps so." "I know it. You do not study." "What's the use of boning all the time! I wasn't cut out for it." "That's the only way to get ahead here." "I don't care much about getting ahead.

I mean, is it one belonging to Fraschini's service? Don't touch it, but look at it, you can tell." Luigi leaned over the dead man. "Yes, it is one of our boning knives," he said. "We always bring our own hardware." "Well, then, if you want to clear yourself and your men of doubt, tell all you know." "I know this," and Luigi braced himself to the ordeal.

"He's a chump to bone hard all the time. Really, Prescott, you don't get any further with an excess of boning." "I always try to get as high in my class as I can," sighed Dick. "True, that has never been extremely high yet. But a fellow wants to be well up, so he can spare a few numbers, in case anything happens, you know."

Her uncle lives to Boston, and" "Well, she don't, if she says that!" calmly boning his sixth herring. "She does too!" red with excitement; "she was there visiting when she was a baby, and she" "Hush, Molly! Morton, why will you be so tantalizing? Think a minute, dear, and tell me how many weeks there are in a year; then you'll see what Morton means."

I want the boys to stand well this term, but, like most boys they are always ready for skylarking, and the work from seven-thirty to nine-thirty is easily side-tracked. So we have agreed to exchange a message at gunfire if 'all is well. If they have been boning tomorrow's work my flash light is answered; if not well, I see no answering flash."
