The sleeping brown-skinned babies in their chrysalis-like hoods were gently lowered from the pony's back and attached securely to Nakpa's padded wooden saddle. The family pots and kettles were divided among the pack ponies. Order was restored and the village once more in motion. "Come now, Nakpa; you have your wish. You must take good care of my babies.
It was singular that they should have joined us much in the same way. Tamaku was likely to prove of service in acting as interpreter with the natives of Polynesia; for the language of the Sandwich group differs but slightly from the dialects of the other brown-skinned races inhabiting the numerous archipelagoes which dot its surface.
Daughtry told his seventeen-years- old brown-skinned Papuan with the withered ancient face of a centenarian, the legs of a living skeleton, and the huge-stomached torso of an elderly Japanese wrestler. "Eh, Kwaque! What you fella think?" And Kwaque, too awed by the spaciousness to speak, eloquently rolled his eyes in agreement.
Saxon looked with amazement at these small, brown-skinned immigrants who came to the soil with nothing and yet made the soil pay for itself to the tune of two hundred, of five hundred, and of a thousand dollars an acre. On every hand was activity. Women and children were in the fields as well as men. The land was turned endlessly over and over. They seemed never to let it rest.

In fact, they waved their hands in welcome, and called encouragingly to those in the gig.

The music was at its gayest, and the dance at its merriest, when Eisenkopf looked in at the window.
Baring knew his character as I know it, Ventana would not be allowed to enter his office." "Pedro Ventana?" interrupted Christobal. "Is he a half-caste, a tall, brown-skinned man, who affects an American drawl when he speaks English a man prominent in Santiago society and in mining circles generally?" "Yes," said Elsie. "That is odd, exceedingly so.
His mind sickened with the horror of that thought.
