"It's a sure enough kid, all the same," said one of the men, as if he had previously entertained some doubts of the matter. "And ain't he white!" "Of course a white kid's white," answered the barkeep, scornfully. "Awful cute little shaver," said another. "By cracky, Jim, you must have had him up yer sleeve for a week! He don't look more'n about one week old."
Then the country has grown poorer, has'nt it, because it has bought cheaper this year, than it did the year before? Why, your folks are cute chaps, I vow; they'd puzzle a Philadelphia Lawyer, they are so amazin knowin. Ah, said he, and he rubb'd his hands and smiled like a young doctor, when he gets his first patient; ah, said he, if the timber duties are altered, down comes St.
Should the fraud be detected before the completion of the bargain, as in our case, he laughs with the rest, and says, probably, he `warn't so 'cute as usual." "Och, the scoundrels!" cried Larry; "an' is there no law for sich doin's?" "None; at least in most diggings men are left to sharpen their own wits by experience. Sometimes, however, the biter is pretty well bitten.
"'Cause you're my next of kin. By rights it had oughter come to you, hadn't it?" "I don't know the New Hampshire laws." With an admiring glance at her niece, Ellen broke into an unpleasant laugh. "There's no trappin' you, Miss Lucy Webster, is there?" she exclaimed, rising from her chair and clapping on her hat. "You're a cute one, an awful cute one!" "Why?"

"What was there to upset ye in that?" "Why, the way the parson spoke and looked." "Umph! He was only acting his part. He was trying to work upon our feelings, that was all. Ah, he is a cute one, that.
Who dares to bring a white mouse to the class? And he made a dash for her. But she was too quick, too 'cute, for 'the likes of' Monsieur le Pion. She gave a jump, and in the twinkling of an eye had disappeared up my leg, under my trousers.
This was a mild derivation of the old Roman proverb solvere aut in aere aut in cute, to pay either with one's money or one's skin.

How on earth did this forlorn old alien have Anne's portrait in his possession? He was cute enough to read my expression, for he clutched my arm, and, pointing to the portrait, began speaking earnestly, not in the patois, but in low Russian. My Russian is poor enough, but his was execrable. Still, I gathered that he knew "the gracious lady," and had come a long way in search of her.
"Angela Baxter," Martie said with reviving hope. "But she charges two dollars; at least she did for the Baptist euchre." "Well that's not so much!"
