Beatrice took immediate possession of the front seat, that she might comfort her heartbroken young nephew. "Never mind, honey. They'll bring the horses back in a minute, and we'll make them run every step. And when you get to Uncle Dick's ranch you'll see the nicest things bossy calves, and chickens, and, maybe, some little pigs with curly tails."
"Yes," hesitated Cherry; "and besides, Hope won't be here for supper." "That's right! Then nine will be enough. Now we'll pour in the water, lots, 'cause it boils away in cooking." "If Gail doesn't get here soon, how will we get any milk for our rice?" asked Allee, watching them. "Bossy hasn't been milked yet." Peace paused on her way to the stove with the heavy saucepan.
She did not answer him but sat down quietly by her first cow, a fine-blooded animal which soon showed signs of restlessness under her tense hands. "There! There! So Bossy," soothed Rose gently. "You never will learn how to manage good stock," Martin criticized bitingly. "Nor you how to treat a wife." "Oh, shut up." "Don't talk to me that way."
He began to unwind the ribbons of white cloth, the stringed remnants of the surplice. "Gracious Peter! It's the surplus! What will Amarilly say and Lily Rose? It's only fit fer carpet rags now. Well, if this ain't the end of the surplus after all it has went through! I wonder what bossy wanted of it? Thought jest cause she was a cow, she must be a cow ketcher, I suppose."
In the clear eastern air, the different characters of the foliage that clothed the sides of that sea-washed mountain might be discerned from a long distance by the naked eye; the silver gray of the olive-trees near its summit; the heavy green and bossy forms of the sycamores lower down; broken here and there by a solitary terebinth or ilex tree, of a deeper green and a wider spread; till the eye fell below on the maritime plain, edged with the white seaboard and the sandy hillocks; with here and there feathery palm-trees, either isolated or in groups motionless and distinct against the hot purple air.
Shaggy black hair grew low upon his bossy forehead, his dark eyes were fierce and bloodshot, a rough beard only half concealed the huge jaw and iron lips. He was half clad, in shirt and hose, and the muscles of his neck and arms stood out like brown ropes as he pressed the beautiful creature to his broad chest. "I thought he would never sleep to-night," she whispered.
"Now open up and tell us what you saw, Toby," demanded Steve, who was by nature inclined to be what his chums called "bossy." "L-l-land's sake, didn't you s-s-see it, fellows?" asked the troubled one, his voice trembling with the excitement under which he was laboring. "Stick a pin in him, Steve," advised Bandy-legs; "that's the easiest way to make him talk straight English, you know."
Huge, bossy cumuli developed with astonishing rapidity from mere buds, swelling with visible motion into colossal mountains, and piling higher, higher, in long massive ranges, peak beyond peak, dome over dome, with many a picturesque valley and shadowy cave between; while the dark firs and pines of the upper benches of the Sierra were projected against their pearl bosses with exquisite clearness of outline.
"She was one of the cranky kind middle-aged and none of her family could live with her. You've seen that kind? They wanted she should have a trained nurse and the trained nurse never was born that she could get along with.
