Nursie must make haste and finish my black embroidered silk, and I must finish reading the play. Mr. Jones says it's splendidly staged! she exclaimed. 'When did you see Mr. Jones? inquired Stella. 'In the office yesterday, when I came to fetch you. He told me where to go botanising this afternoon, explained Vava. 'Oh, said Stella, 'that Mr.

Fortunately Eva did not hear this condescending remark, and accepted the invitation, and the three went botanising some miles out of town. Stella elected to stay at home, as Amy had letters to write, and she was sitting alone in their pretty sitting-room when a motor drove up to the door, and looking out of the bow-window in which she was sitting she saw Mrs. Montague Jones alight.

In the afternoon Dr. Wetmore and I rode to the beautiful Puna woods on a botanising excursion. We were galloping down to the beach round a sharp corner, when we had to pull our horses almost on their haunches to avoid knocking over the king, the American admiral, the captain of the "Benicia," nine of their officers, and the two generals.

One very sultry forenoon Mark and his party while out botanising, entomologising, philosophising, etcetera, not far from but out of sight of the great procession came to the brow of a hill and sat down to rest.

For grandfather takes a day here, and a day there, for botanising or going after insects, and he'll think little enough of four or five shillings for a specimen; dear grandfather! and I'm so loath to think he should be stinted of what gives him such pleasure.

Shubin ran up to Zoya, offered her his arm, and saying: 'Ihre Hand, Madame' caught hold of her hand, and pushed on ahead with her.

It was therefore decided that there should be a botanising trip on the next day but two, the following day being Saturday. "Let's play cricket, Papa, and you come and bowl for us," said Harry. "Bravo!" cried the others. "Oh do, Uncle oh do, Papa!"

My house is `liberty hall. Sometimes we go together on the hills after grouse, at other times after red-deer. When the rivers are in order, we take our rods and break up into parties. When weather and wind are suitable, some go boating and sea-fishing. Others go sketching or botanising.

When she was told that she might pluck a few daisies she was much delighted. After her first experiences in the botanising line she formally asked permission to pluck many wild flowers; but she always seemed to have a dread of transgressing against some dim law which had been hitherto represented to her mind by the man in blue who used to watch over her miserable alley.
