You can get an idea of the immensity of our business when I tell you I got 999.25 francs worth of butter-scotch candy alone with the last lot of goods, besides a dozen other kinds of candy, nuts, toilet articles, etc., and this will be sold and given out in a very few days. We had very good meetings last Sunday. I spoke at night. A glorious time we had, indeed.
Mamma had come out of the dining-room. She shut the door behind her. "What have you given to Mary?" she said. "Butter-Scotch," said Aunt Charlotte. All afternoon till tea-time Papa and Uncle Victor walked up and down the garden path, talking to each other. Every now and then Mark and Mary looked at them from the nursery window.
"Yes, we do; I was just going to ask," exclaimed Kittie, moving closer. "I know you've got heaps, and they're not about clothes and butter-scotch, and eyes, and doing great things either. Now tell us all." "I don't see why I should have heaps," began Mrs. Dering, with a laugh. "Is it because I am so old, or do I look as though I had been weighted down with them?"
I've discovered where Min keeps her butter-scotch. Come in and have some." "No, I'm going the rounds to see what everybody is about," she answered. "You're all in such a mess now, I'd rather look in later. I'm one of the early settlers, and have been in order for ages." "What's the odds so long as you're happy?" called the girl on the chiffonier. "Besides, it's no better next door.
Slowly, because in the lexicon of his daily life there was no such word as "perhaps." There are no surprises awaiting a man who has been married two years and lives in a flat. As he walked John Perkins prophesied to himself with gloomy and downtrodden cynicism the foregone conclusions of the monotonous day. Katy would meet him at the door with a kiss flavored with cold cream and butter-scotch.
Miss Hopkins, it appeared, despised butter-scotch, and abhorred preserved ginger. "I saw The Author hiking across lots a while since. Nice, open-hearted, neighborly man, The Author. "Good heavens, certainly not!" cried Miss Hopkins. And she looked strangely upon Mr. Nicholas Jelnik. "No? Thank you. I was in doubt," murmured Mr. Jelnik. The golden flecks danced in and out of his eyes.
Whenever the girls who are packing candy find that it is becoming soft they turn on a current of cold air to chill and harden it; we often use these cool blasts, too, when handling candies in the process of making. Such kinds as butter-scotch, hoarhound, and the pretty twisted varieties stick together very easily.
"It's bliss to hear you talk. Your words are like wisdom and butter-scotch." "What's in the wind?" asked an interested voice from the window. "And what's all this I hear about limestones and butter-scotch and wisdom?" "Don't you wish you knew?" said Kat, with an unfriendly grimace.
Involuntarily his mouth opened and admitted an enticing cake of butter-scotch. She rammed it in with her wiry little hand so that he almost choked, and then with a shrill laugh she turned and fled, leaping down the heather between the boulders, across the brook, over the wall, and out of sight. David was left behind, sucking. The sweetness he was conscious of was not all in the mouth.
Some generous spirits had brought chocolates and butter-scotch, which they shared round, and Nora, the irrepressible, produced from her pocket a mouth-organ, with which she proceeded to entertain the company, until frantic raps from the next compartment made her aware that Miss Giles heard and disapproved of her amateur recital.
