Should it fall into the hands of a philo-Fenian the effect may be different. To him it would probably have the wrong action of the Yankee bone-picking machine. "I've got a new machine," said a Yankee pedlar, "for picking bones out of fish. Now, I tell you, it's a leetle bit the darndest thing you ever did see.
"But there is no Saint Susy," Ri-Ri interposed gayly, lightly fingering the dark curves of her hair. Truly for Johnny she had done her darndest! Surely he would be pleased. "If you'd only let me cut that lower you're simply swaddled in tulle "
I admit we took to each other from the start. They often say I'm a good mixer, but it took no talent to get next to that boy. I woke up the first night thinking I knew what old silly would do her darndest to adopt him if ever his poor pa and ma was to get buttered over the right of way in some railroad accident. "And yet I didn't see Angus, Junior, one bit the way either of his parents saw him.
Dad turned green and said he had got it all right, and I had the darndest time getting him back to the hotel at Washington.
As he told me before he lost the power of speech, not to be too hard on the railroad company, though some railroads would be glad to pay him $20,000, and no questions asked, he begged me, as heir to his estate, to let you off for a paltry $10,000." Pa made up the darndest face, and groaned.
"Oh, rot, Somers!" said Bob, blushing furiously under his tan; "you ought never to go near a woman you're the darndest fool with 'em I ever saw." This time even the painter laughed outright, and yet he was a little sorrowful, too, because he could not be even as these youths.

"Say, Gail," Beverly whispered, when we were in motion, "somebody said once, 'There have been no great nations without processions, but this is the darndest procession I ever saw to help to make a nation great. Hold on, comrade. There! Rest on my arm a bit. It makes it softer."
The rest is up to you." "That's square, Dick," chimed in Walter. "Sure it is. I'll go to it and do my darndest, too, Dad," returned the boy. "That's the proper spirit!" exclaimed his father. His Highness smiled with ironic satisfaction. "If Bob is to tutor you you will study harder than you ever did in your precious life," whispered he. "I know Bob. He can be stiff as any college professor.
"'Didn't you know, said he, 'that no living man could git that horse across a bridge, let him do his darndest? "'I did, said I, 'know it to my cost, for he nearly killed me in a fight we had at the Salem Pike. "'How could you then tell me, Sir, your sole reason for parting with him was, that you wanted to leave Boston and go to Charleston?
Last week I was over this way. He had his head through the corral bars at the bottom and he couldn't get loose. He was happy, though. He must have been there quite a spell, for he ate about half a bale of hay. I got him loose and he tried his darndest to kick my head off." "Uhuh," grunted the foreman. "Reckon it's the last rain we'll get this year. Now would you look at that! He's the limit!"
