We live in an artist's house on a street that means Asses street, and our front room is a saloon but not a drinking one, and it runs right through the up-stairs to the skylight. You have to pay for that. Think of charging for daylight! We went to a bird show and I saw a cockatoo sitting on a pole asleep.

"Out with you!" said John Broom, as he unfastened the cage door. And just when Miss Betty had run round, and as she shouted through the keyhole, "Open the door, John Broom. We've changed our minds. We've decided to keep it in its cage," the cockatoo strode solemnly forth on his eight long toes. "Pretty Cocky!" said he.

Who else do we want? Bert Alley asked to join, and so did George Browne." "And Casper Temple," added Joe. "And they're all good fellows. But I want it distinctly understood that I'm going on the Cockatoo." "Me too!" exclaimed Perry. "All of us fellows must go on the Cockatoo. We were the first." "But suppose Corwin's boat won't hold five?" said Han.

"It's not a very big bite, though, of course, it must be very vexing. But I'm sure Mr. Cockatoo didn't do it, if he says he didn't. But, please, don't let us have any pecking. You'll find out, sometime, who did it, I dare say." "Oh, that's all very well for you," returned the Macaw, "but it isn't your apple. Who bit my apple? Who bit my apple?

Browne and I turned homewards from our first going to the N.W. The Cacatua sanguinea, Gould, succeeded the Sulphur Crested Cockatoo to the westward of the Barrier Range, and was in flocks of thousands on Evelyn's Plains, near the Depot, but I am not certain as to the point to which it migrated.

"Maybe I do and maybe I don't," retorted the captain, opening the door with a jerk; "anyhow, I don't hunt for that corpse without the dollars." When Hiram Hervey departed, the Professor raged up and down the room so violently that Cockatoo was cowed by his anger.

She laughed lightly and gave a lump of sugar to the cockatoo. "You read me accurately. But why touch your words with satire?" "I believe I read you better than you read me. I didn't mean to be satirical. Don't you know that what often seems irony directed towards others is in reality dealt out to ourselves? Such irony as was in my voice was for myself."

Philip knelt on the ribs of his foe, still holding one ear and one hind leg. Then he proceeded with his speech, gasping for breath: "And this is what happens to a poor man in Australia! Here have I been fighting a wild beast of a pig for half an hour, just to keep him alive, and all to oblige a cockatoo farmer, and small thanks to me for that same.

Spatola is acquainted with the place; he was here at the time. This is proven by the scream of the frightened cockatoo which followed the ringing of the bell." "It was not a cockatoo that made the sound," said Ashton-Kirk. "Give me a moment and I think I can convince you of that." The gas in the hall was lighted; the investigator stopped at the foot of the stairs leading to the fourth floor.

But," positively, "she did not find him there." "What makes you think that? There was still one of Hume's visitors left, when she got there. It may have been Morris." "It was Spatola," answered Pendleton, with conviction. "The scream of the cockatoo which came from Hume's rooms when the pistol was discharged proves it. When Spatola went in, Berg said he was carrying something under his coat.
