The Governor began to chortle after a quick glance at the vanishing red light of the Portsmouth car. "Not the first time I've used warrants in that way! And they're good warrants too.

He and the babu discussed ethics and metaphysical philosophy for three solid hours. Evidently they came from different parts of India, and their only common language was English. Through the thin partition in the station building we could hear plainly every word. It was very interesting. Especially did we chortle with delight when the inspector began one of his arguments somewhat as follows:

The convention on the landing understood every chortle in a truly marvellous way. "It's the spark-plug, that's sure!" announced one with an air of finality. Have you cleaned your spark-plug?" "No, Jim!" contradicted another, "it's all in the oil feed! Look how she puffs! W'y it's in the oil feed plain as day! Now if you'll take off that carburetor and " I cranked on heroically.

It was at this moment, when he had urged the car to its highest speed, that a noise startled him an amazing little chirrupy sound which corresponded to none of the familiar forewarnings of engine trouble. With his eyes to the front he listened for a repetition of the sound. It rose again it was like a perplexing cheep and chirrup, changing to a chortle of glee. "Goo-goo! Goo-goo-goo!"

Has the rheumatism. Leave her alone." John broke into a gleeful chortle. "Look what's coming, fellows." The cause of his exultation was a callow youth of sixteen, whose father had met with a sudden wave of prosperity and was now trying to sell his rather modest home that he might move to a more exclusive neighborhood.

Jack was too excited by his happiness to have noticed Mrs. De Peyster's voice had it been a dozen-fold more unlike Matilda's than it was. "Yes!" he cried. "And wouldn't it surprise mother if she knew! Mother, sailing so unsuspiciously along on the Plutonia!" He gave a chortle of delight. "But oh, I say, Matilda," he cried suddenly, "you mustn't write her!" Mrs. De Peyster did not answer.

One by one the mysteries of life were unfolded to him the mating-night chortle of the gray owl, the crash of a falling tree, the roll of thunder, the rush of running water, the scream of a fisher-cat, the mooing of the cow moose, and the distant call of his tribe. But chief of all these mysteries that were already becoming a part of his instinct was the mystery of scent.

You're all right backwards!" Then he'd throw his ears back and let a chortle out of his thirst-teaser that made the neighborhood jump sideways and rubber for a cop. "What are you going to do?" he asked me when presently his face grew too tired to hold any more wrinkles. "Give me the count," I sighed; 'I'm down and out." "Have you no plan at all?" inquired Bunch.

A camel rises from its front or hind legs just as the fancy seizes it, so that if you do not keep a fair balance, also yourself in complete readiness to lean forward or backward according to your mount's final decision, you will assuredly find yourself ignominiously pitched in a heap over the quadruped's nose, or just as ignominiously hanging head down in the vicinity of its tail, either of which positions will cause her to chortle gleefully before the next lurch, which gets the rest of her feet into order.

They were holding a consultation, evidently; and the very air felt gummy with latent advice. "What's the matter with your engine?" they chorused. "Why, there's something wrong with it!" I explained cheerfully, as I went aboard again. I began to crank, praying steadily for a miracle. Now and then I managed to coax forth a gaseous chortle or two.
