The ol' man couldn't think up a come-back; so in about a minute he pushed back his chair, upsettin' it an' lettin' it lay where it fell. He went up to his room, slammin' the door after him, an' Barbie got out a pony an' galloped off to the hills. But the ol' man hadn't give up his project. He opened it again, an' was mighty crafty in the way he handled it, until finally he engineered it through.

I think the number of Americans who know this has increased; but no American, wherever he lives, need travel far from home to meet fellow Americans who sing the song of slush about forgiving and forgetting. Perhaps the man I heard talking in front of the bulletin board was one of the "army of spies," as I like to infer from his absence of "come-back."

There's a few questions of rank and privileges that ought to be settled once for all, so there can't be no come-back." "The point is well taken and it is so ordered," said Mr. Gibney, who had once held office in Harbour 15, Masters and Pilots Association of America, and knew a fragment or two of parliamentary law.

"Well, I'm not so sure," said Ellis contemplatively. "Of course he acts gosh-awful young. But did you notice him when he went?" "Not particularly." "He was smiling." "Well?" "Always look out for a guy that smiles when he's licked. He's got a come-back to him."

But on the way to the garage it occurred to me that I had a chance for a come-back that would keep you three from feeling too smug and happy over the way I had gulped down your little plot. So I planned it, and I rather think," he added complacently, "that I put it over." "Put it over!" groaned Epstein. "Mein Gott, I should think you did put it over!

I believe in advertising, but I believe in letting someone else pay for it. MIFFLIN I guess perhaps I can afford to go on riding on Meredith's ads. I hadn't thought of that. But I think I shall put a little notice in one of the papers some day, just a little card saying It will be fun to see what come-back I get.

"Youse don't call dese little runts bandits?" "Baby bandits, Billy, baby bandits," replied Bridge. "An' you're goin' to stan' fer lettin' 'em pull off this rough stuff without handin' 'em a come-back?" demanded Byrne. "We seem to be up against just that very thing," said Bridge. "There are four carbines quite ready for us. It would mean sudden death to resist now.

"S'cat!" said Lizzie, and Uncle Peter began to fish for his next line. "I want you to understand," he went on, "that I pay you your wages!" "Sure, if you didn't," was Lizzie's come-back, "I'd land on you good and hard, that I would. What else are you here for, you fathead?" "Fathead!" echoed Uncle Peter in astonishment. "Peter, leave her to me," pleaded Aunt Martha.

To see him "distinkly is an awful job," according to Uncle Felix; or as Come-Back Stumper realised in the middle of another clump of bramble bushes, "Perspective is necessary to proper vision." "He" lay too close before their eyes to be discovered fully. Tim had long ago described it instinctively as "an enormous hide," but it was more than that; it was a universal hide.

It ain't eatin' money, but it'll maybe help buy me the makin's of a smoke now and then." "Well, get up, then. I'll get us some breakfast, and we'll go. It's going to be still to-day and hot, I think. You better get up." "Aw, that's right! You've got the upper hand, and so you can go ahead and abuse me like a dog and I ain't got any come-back.
