But the good influences of the Universe, that encourage and strengthen the noble martyrs of truth and workers of good in their arduous labors, do sometimes also help on villains to their bad ends. Never were troubled waters more quickly smoothed with oil, never were the poles of a magnet more quickly reversed, than Chip's rage and rancor abated after he entered that door.
But to marry a divorced husband or a divorced wife is the most dangerous risk of all." Chip's voice was thick and dry. "May I ask, sir, on what you base your your opinion?" "Chiefly on the principle that, no matter how successfully the dead are buried, they may come back again as ghosts. No one can keep them from doing that." "And and I presume, sir, that you held this theory when you married?"
The Old Man could hardly be blamed for losing the drift of Chip's rapid utterances. "If we want to get them rounded up before the dance, I'll it's a good thing it wasn't poison, for seven dead kids at once " The Old Man knew something about sickness himself.
Pinkerton, who had received almost daily reports of what had occurred, which reports Chip had contrived to mail through some one of the detectives disguised as cowboys, now telegraphed that he would be in Kansas City the following night. Chip and Sam met him at the railway station and he accompanied them to Chip's room.
The agent had the trunk on the baggage truck and trundled it along the platform, and Chip's eyes searched for his enemy. They were in the waiting room; he could hear that laugh of the Little Doctor's Lord, how he hated to hear it directed at some other fellow, that is. Yes, there was the suit case it looked just as he had expected it would and there was a glimpse of tan cloth just inside the door.
But if any stray boy from Potky's was found, for instance, in, or entering into, Chip's house, the most dreadful tortures were practised upon him: as I can answer in my own case. We were going to set upon him and devour or otherwise maltreat him, when he cried out in a little shrill impertinent voice, "TELL BERRY I WANT HIM!" We all roared with laughter.
Maybe the buildings would need some doctoring, but there's sure some round-pole corrals that would make your mouth water." "We used to have some," sighed Andy, "at the Flying U. But they kinda went to pieces, and Chip's been replacing them with plank. By gracious, you don't see many round-pole corrals any more, come to think of it. There's remains, scattered around over the country."
But Johnny, peeping surreptitiously over Chip's shoulder, stared at the change; then, feeling the spirit of it, shivered in sympathy with the barren hills. "Hully gee," he muttered under his breath, "he's sure a corker t' paint cold that fair makes yer nose sting." And he curled up in a chair behind, where he could steal a look, now and then, without fear of detection.
Dick was right in calling attention to the dog's welcome, for Chip's bark was one of delight from the very first, and dashing down to the water, he rushed in and began swimming rapidly to meet them.
By the time this checked-apron court of inquiry adjourned, Louise appeared and said she believed she was ready, and Miss Whitmore escaped from the house far in advance of the others and such were Chip's telepathic powers that he sprang down voluntarily and assisted her to the front seat without a word being said by either.
