Tidman takes it out by droppin' a book. "A dangerous character, we think, sir," says the butler "most likely one of a gang of burglars. Mrs. Flynn found him lurking in the coal-bin on account of his having sneezed, sir. Then she grappled him, sir." "Oh, dear!" groans Tidman, his face goin' putty-colored. "The deuce!" says Waldo. "And you say the laundress has him er "
In practice, this fresh air is apt to come from the region of the coal-bin and potato-barrels, especially in very cold weather, and I doubt whether it will find the door of escape sooner at one side than another, unless immediately over the entrance.
"What's the matter?" I asked, startled. "I stepped on something that that moved!" plaintively. "Possibly it was a potato; there's a bin of them over there. Where the deuce are we?" "If you swear, I shall certainly scream!" she warned. "But I can swear in the most elegant and approved fashion." "I am not inclined to have you demonstrate your talents." "Aha! Here is the coal-bin.
He ran around the house, but at the corner he lost the trail, and though he circled the building three times, and listened, and dodged back and forth, to surprise "Dodd" if possible, he could get no clue to his whereabouts. He went into the cellar and looked all about, peering into the furnace-room and coal-bin, but nowhere could he find the crafty object of his search.
It flattered me, excited and intoxicated me, but it never made me one-hundredth part as happy as I am tonight. And when I thought I had lost your respect and your love, I no more thought of turning to the world for solace and happiness, than I would look in a coal-bin for diamonds. I knew all about the world, and in the depths of my soul realized that it was a sham.
He was good enough to take a cinder out of my eye this morning, and I helped him to find his watch in the coal-bin. I say, Anne, we might get a farm wagon and drive to some village where there is a minister " "No, Harry! you know I've set my heart on being married in a church. It seems so much more decent and regular; especially after what has just happened."
You 'll probably find them in the coal-bin," said Polly, with the calmness of despair. "I saw some little white things on the dining-room floor as I raced through. Go get them, Maud, and we 'll repair damages," said Tom, shutting the culprit into the boot closet, where he placidly rolled himself up and went to sleep. "They ain't hurt a bit," proclaimed Maud, restoring the lost treasures.
Daisy heard it, ran in, saw the empty dish, also the end of a yellow tail disappearing under the bed. Without a word she seized that tail, pulled out the thief, and shook him till his ears flapped wildly, then bundled him down-stairs to the shed, where he spent a lonely evening in the coal-bin.
I d'nno; ther's a number o'little jobs 'round, don't amount to much, coal-bin, thresholds, and one or two things you want to change; take three or four days, I guess, if the plumbers and furnace folks get out of the way; week, mebbe." "You think, then, by a week from next Saturday to-day is Thursday morning you will have everything cleared up?" "O yes, easy!"
And the capstone of humiliation seemed to be when Edward and his brother, after having for several mornings found no kindling wood or coal to build the fire, decided to go out of evenings with a basket and pick up what wood they could find in neighboring lots, and the bits of coal spilled from the coal-bin of the grocery-store, or left on the curbs before houses where coal had been delivered.
