This dress is long enough, land knows, but that's about all you can say of it. However, I suppose we hadn't ought to to look a gift dress in the waistband." Supper was ready in the dining-room and thither they were piloted by Kenelm, whose hair, what there was of it, was elaborately "slicked down," and whose celluloid collar had evidently received a scrubbing.
Though the cherries were made of celluloid, they looked very real, and they might have fooled even a boy or a girl, to say nothing of a monkey. So with a quick bound Jacko which seems to be the name of all those long-tailed chaps was perched on Flossie's shoulder, tearing at her hat with two paws, trying to pull off what he thought were ripe, red cherries. "Oh! Oh!" screamed Flossie. "Oh, stop!"
Instantly a straggly man with a celluloid collar left the group by the door, whisked over to the Greek professor, and fawned upon him. He ostentatiously flapped a wad of copy-paper in his left hand, and shook a spatter of ink-drops from a fountain-pen as he interviewed the Greek professor, who could be seen answering pompously.
"'Cause then if she falls off into the water it won't hurt if she gets wet," said Sue. "That's right!" agreed Bunny. But now the children left their play and ran to see what their mother wanted. Before doing so, however, Bunny made fast the little boat to a tree on the bank of the brook, tying it by a long string. And Sue took the celluloid doll off the deck and laid her on the grass in the shade.
"I intend to work my will, but I am a man of reason. You are entitled to a hearing state your objection, sir. Speak up!" The captain's answer was to raise his right hand and to loosen the cords securing the celluloid mask. As the Master watched, steadying his nerves against the shock of what he felt must be a nameless horror underneath, Alden tore away the mask and threw it upon the table.
By those cards and those celluloid disks the old gambler had made his living; grim fitness was in the fact that they should carpet his bier. When 'Poleon Doret had forced his way by main strength out of the Gold Belt Saloon, he removed his cap and, turning his face to the wind, he breathed deeply of the cool, clean air.
"Oh, look out!" she cried. "You have knocked me off the shelf! Oh, there I go!" and the Wooden Doll fell straight down! "Now you have done it!" mewed the China Cat. "I hope her neck isn't broken," said a tiny Celluloid Doll. "Oh, what an accident!" "I I didn't mean to do it," said Jack sadly. "I'll go down and pick her up." "Hush! Keep quiet, all of you!" suddenly mewed the China Cat.
Bill Holmes asked indifferently, pausing to look at Luck before he took up the next strip of celluloid ribbon with its perforated edges and its little squares of shadowlike pictures that to the unpractised eye looked all alike. "No. What reel is that you're on now? We want to be in town before dark with this stuff, so as to start the printer going to-night."
The aviator loosened his helmet and removed it, disclosing a mass of dark hair, a well-shaped head and a vigorous neck. Then he took off his goggles. A kind of communal whisper of astonishment and hostility ran round the apartment. The man's whole face save for eyeholes through which dark pupils looked strangely out was covered by a close-fitting, flesh-colored celluloid mask.
Schoolma'am says she's a good-looker, herself, and that Joe Meeker has took to parting his hair on the dead center and wearing a four-inch, celluloid collar week days. But he's all to the bad she just looks at your picture and smiles sad and longing." "I hate to see a man impose on friendship," murmured Pink.
