Dora said little; and less every day, as she grew accustomed to this silent life. Even when she came home from school at noon for the short interval before the time for her sewing lessons, there was no need to caution her against noise; for the child moved ever less and less like a living being, and grew more like a shadow day by day.
She was laughing a little, too. "Well, she shall come in. But remember that I shall have my ear to the keyhole, and you go beyond your promise, out she's whisked. So I caution you not to spend rashly those two words, sir." And he followed Mrs. Manners out of the room, frowning and shaking his fist at me in mock fierceness. I would have died for the man.
He was terribly ashamed that his voice was breaking.. "Even at the best, but of course they can only give an opinion " "Six months?" "A year, sire." "And at the worst!" said the King, with a grim smile. Then; following his own line of, thought: "But the people love the boy, I think." "They do. It is for that reason, sire, that I advise particular caution." He hesitated.

Then, for the first time since the failing of the blow, Helga recalled with a flush of shame that she was a dauntless shield-maiden; and she took hold of her composure with both hands. Singing and shouting, the rescuers came out of the woods at last and into the circle of firelight.

The caution did not come too soon. Two men, one of whom was Paddy Brady, were about shoving a big Frenchman through a port, when the poor fellow uttered a groan. `What is that you say, monsieur? Just speak again. Are you alive or dead? exclaimed Brady. No answer was returned, and Paddy began to drag the dead body nearer the port.

Firm in his opinion he paddled boldly against the current and took his course southward, though he did not relax his caution, as the Indians often sent out parties of hunters, despite cold or storm.
In emerging from the jungle at night, they generally select the same path or spot, and approach the edge of the cover with great caution. They will follow the same track for days together. Hence in some places the tracks of the tigers are so numerous as to lead the tyro to imagine that dozens must have passed, when in truth the tracks all belong to one and the same brute.
Thirdly it will be easily seen, that the author of the pamphlet delivers his sentiments upon this particular, with the utmost caution and respect, as any impartial reader will observe. The second paragraph, which it is said will be taken notice of as a motive to find the bill, is, what the author says of Ireland being a depending kingdom.
I dare say if she had her way she wouldn't allow a boy under fifteen in the library." "She's afraid they'll soil the books?" Elsie remarked lamely, striving to be adequate to the occasion.
