R-really, now I come to think of it, the case would have been a p-perfect t-treasure-trove for Riccardo if he had had me to treat; he has the true surgeon's love for broken bones, and I believe everything in me that was breakable was broken on that occasion except my neck." "And your courage," she put in softly. "But perhaps you count that among your unbreakable possessions." He shook his head.
The Brigade arrived in some dozen or more trains, each carrying what corresponded to a squadron, its baggage, which consisted of all sorts of heavy cases and things more or less breakable such as personal baggage, and saddlery in sacks, and also motor bicycles and vehicles.
If somebody told me that it would be desirable in all sorts of ways to break a man's head I shouldn't do it, because I should be bothering myself with all the possibilities of the thing how desirable it might be, or how undesirable. But if, happening to be in his company, I saw his head in a breakable aspect splosh! I should land him a nasty one. That's a certainty.
By this time, although the ice was still all around them, many of the floes were quite thin, and even the heavier ice appeared to be breakable. So, after a consultation with Wilson, Scott decided to raise steam, and two days later the ship was once more in the open sea. From the 9th to the 30th they had been in the pack, and during this time 370 miles had been covered in a direct line.
The course selected must provide ample opportunity for fast, straight running, and must also include a fair proportion of steep and difficult ground. A descent of not less than 1,000 feet on really difficult snow, such as hard, wind-swept, unbreakable crust, on which Lifted Stemming turns are practicable but Telemarks impossible, varied by breakable crust in which only Jump turns are practicable.
"I'm not breakable like you meat people. A little straw will make me good as new. A little straw straw, do you hear?" For Happy's pigtail was still on end, and he was shaking so that his silver shoes clattered on the rocks. "I command you to fetch straw!" cried the Scarecrow at last, in an angry voice. Happy dashed away.
"As you please," said Peggy; "but I know if I liked a person well enough to name a child after her, I'd take her up the first minute, slippery or not." "You might," said Alice, "but I'm not going to. She is my child, and she's very breakable." "Well, anyway, I am going to take Diana a Christmas egg, breakable or not."
Fancy kicking two little things like that out into the world, two little breakable things like that, made to be cherished and watched over. Mr. Twist was pure American in his instinct to regard the female as an object to be taken care of, to be placed securely in a charming setting and kept brightly free from dust.
She liked neither her job nor the baby any the better; she still handled it as gingerly as if it were some kind of a small lizard, and a breakable lizard at that; but she did her work thoroughly and there was not a cleaner, better-cared-for infant in Glen St. Mary.
The cebus did not wait to be shown how to do things, but was an adept in devising ways to do them himself. He had the monkey love of mischief well developed, and not much that was breakable came whole from his hands. When he could not break an egg cup by dashing it to the ground, he hammered it on the post of a brass bedstead until it was in fragments.
