After a day of moaning and staring, as he sat amidst his household goods on the bank of the creek, he became animated by a deep rage against the mill-owner. Now more than ever had he a special purpose for enriching himself by means of his treasure across the hill. The coming of two circuses in succession had taken the interest of the boys away from Pop during August and part of September.
I allers said that circuses and shows was a burnin' shame, and now I know it; I'll make the owner of that elephant pay ten thousand dollars for the damage he done us, for he scart you and me so bad Betsy, that we'll never grow another inch." Meanwhile, the runaway kept things moving.
The road, by-the-by, was full of homeward wheels by this time, single and double and tandem, and my driver professed that their multitude greatly increased the difficulties of his profession. It was in the old Roman arena of beautiful Verona that the circus events I wish to speak of took place; in fact, I had the honor and profit of seeing two circuses there.
An' you may've noticed thet Josie knows a pile more'n the other women here?" I admitted that this had occurred to me. "W'l, she was allus apt to take her head with her," said Bill, "but this travelin' has fixed her like a hoss thet's ben druv in Chicago: nothin' feazes her, street-cars, brass bands, circuses, overhead trains it's all the same to her, she's seen 'em all.
"He's on the Western Front somewhere that may explain the appearance of the circuses or it may have been a corps general showing off the circus to a few trippers from Berlin they are always running Reichstag members and pressmen round this front.

"How can you, Louisa and Thomas? I wonder at you. I declare you're enough to make one regret ever having had a family at all. I have a great mind to say I wish I hadn't. Then what would you have done, I should like to know? As if, with my head in its present throbbing state, you couldn't go and look at the shells and minerals and things provided for you, instead of circuses.
After that there was prolonged fooling between the clown and the chief horseman, who made many mediaeval jokes, that reminded me of little circuses on the outer boulevards of Paris, and at last the horseman sang a song which won great applause: Here's to the man who kisses his wife, And kisses his wife alone; For there's many a man kissed another man's wife When he thought he kissed his own.
"Yes; you'll earn more after a while, and I can now; but I'd rather live in the city. There's lots to see in the city theaters, circuses, and all kinds of amusements." "You won't have much money to spend on theaters," said Harry, prudently. "Not at first, but I'll get raised soon." "I think I should try to save as much as I could." "Out of three dollars a week?"
