It did not seem possible that this could be the girl who had called to him in warning scarce five minutes before; but he knew it had been she, he would have known her voice anywhere in the world. They rode silent beside the creek, which was like a laughing companion seeking to mock them into a cheerier mood.

"Pshaw, mother," said Reuben, with a voice cheerier than his heart, "very likely they never got our last letter, and don't know we were to be here to-day," and he knocked again.

Babbie and I shall spend the evening in the front room." "The front room?" echoed Prudence. "This room is much cheerier, and more homelike." "Well, Babbie isn't a member of the family, you know," said Fairy. "You are doing your best," sniffed Carol. "Now, you girls must understand right off, that things are different here from what they were at Exminster.

The fact is, that I, with no cheerier home than Brownstroke to look back on, became desperately homesick before three months in London were over; and but for my friend Smith, I might have deserted entirely. However, Smith, solemn as he was, wouldn't let me get quite desperate.

Martin Bukaty might, for instance, have chosen a better abode than the stuffy cabin of a Scandinavian cargo-boat and cheerier companions than a grim pair of Norse seamen. He might have sought a bluer sky and a bluer sea, and yet he stood on the dripping deck and laughed. He clapped Captain Petersen on the back.

"To the well," said the minister, simply, stopping at the port, with a wooden stoup in his hand. "Some of our friends must be burning for a mouthful, poor dears; the wounded flesh is drouthy."

She felt that faces might become cheerier at her coming and that little children the children of other people would welcome her and crow out their little joy. Several long nights of quiet rest had built her up into a woman that was no longer the factory drudge or the recent inmate of hospitals. One of the Papineau children had come over to remain with Hugo, lest he should need anything.

I'll do you this justice in no one instance have I ever seen you flinch when I wanted your help; though often you had no object of your own to serve. I believe no man ever had a cheerier comrade, or a better backer. I don't like you the worse for standing aloof during the last five weeks.
