When I look at Jim, handsome and head up in the air, and think how he'd look all bowed down, hair turnin' gray, and not carin' whether he's shaved and has on a clean shirt or not, 'cause he's got loaded down with debt, and the grocery-man and the butcher after him, and no work, and me and the children draggin' him down, I can bear anything.
"My mamma doesn't care; she lets me go whenever I please, and sometimes I help Bubbles clean knives and do such things, so she can get through, and play with me sooner." "Sylvy, we are coming to watch you make cake; may we?" "I'm not a carin'!" said Sylvy. "Git 'round on the other side of the table." "See her break the eggs," said Florence. "Could you do it, Dimple?
She kept her look forward at the dead wall Chillon had thrown up. He did not reject her company; his prospect of it had clouded; and there were allusions to Henrietta's loneliness. 'His Carin could do her service by staying, if she decided that way. Her enthusiasm dropped to the level of life's common ground.
"Cupid did the actual work, you trained him for it, and Higinson had the kind of a nerve that don't melt under fire." "Sure thing," sez Bill, "I own up that I was plumb petrified, an' Cupid wasn't carin' much one way or the other; but Hank Higinson never lost his self-possession a second," this was all bosh, 'cause I was purty nigh stampeded, an' that's the simple truth.
She'd done well at her sewin', she said, and brought up the baby in tolerable comfort. Then, just as the child was growin' into a woman that could be of help to her mother an' pay her back for her years of workin' an' strugglin', she was took down with consumption. All the little poor Mona had managed to save went in carin' for her sick daughter an' buryin' her when she died.
"Another innocent, ignorant young creature," sez I; "two little butterflies fluttering about instead of one, not thinkin' or carin' for the fouler's net," sez I, smilin' on her pleasant, for I couldn't help it. For I knew the heart of youth, and the monotony of life, and the need of young hearts for each other.
You wanted to leave me, as much as that?" She shook her head from side to side, then, drawing away, she stumbled past him into the room, dropped to the bearskin rug, and held out her hands to the flames. "It's awful good to be back," she said, and fell to sobbing. "I didn't think you'd be carin' I was thinkin' only of old things. I was homesick me that has no home."
But I never thocht it wad hae turned oot as it has done. I hae been gey ill, an' I maun say that Peter has been awful guid to me. He's done his best to get me better, so that he can marry me afore it happens. I lay for nearly six months, an' I wasna carin' whether I died or no'! I was fair heartbroken, an' didna mind what happened. This is the first day I hae been oot.
Knock-out drops ain't no fair way o' fightin'. Well, this feller had been with Brophy a long time, an' he gave us a purty complete list of his doin's an' his ways. As a rule a man only lasted about a year with the gang, an' when it was possible Brophy tried to get boys to fill up the vacancies, boys likin' the game an' not carin' much for the consequences.
"You see I've had a great misfortune. I've never been in your West. I've lived in New York where good manners haven't time or space to flourish. I hadn't the least intention of being impertinent. Do you want me to go?" He moved as if to leave her, and she did not lift a finger to detain him. "I'm not carin'. Do as you please," she said with entire indifference.
