Ain't it queer about the differ'nce in folks' tastes in their tea and coffee?" That was the signal for the talk to begin with anecdotes of how various relatives, quick and passed, had loved to take their tea. No one ever broached a real topic until this introduction had had its way. To do so would have been an indelicacy, like familiar speech among those in the ceremony of a first meeting.
"If they won't believe us we ought to show 'em the papers ayes," said Aunt Deel. "Thunder an' Jehu! I wouldn't go 'round the town tryin' to prove that I ain't a thief," said Uncle Peabody. "It wouldn't make no differ'nce. They've got to have somethin' to play with.
At any rate with that noble impartiality which distinguishes the utterances of The Planet." "Steady, man. He never told ye that!" said Mackinnon. "I didn't say he told me, I said he informed me." "And whar's the differ'nce? I don't see it at all." "Trepan him, trepan him." Stables took out his penknife and indicated by dumb show a surgical operation on Mackinnon's dome-like head.
It was very good of you to come at all under these circumstances," declared the artist. "Us be fine an' busy when uncle comes down-long, an' partickler this time, 'cause theer've bin a differ'nce of 'pinion 'bout 'bout a matter betwixt him and faither, but now he's wrote through the post to say as he'm comin', so 'tis all right, I s'pose, an' us'll have to give en a good dinner anyways."
"Well, I thought it was that, but Sally Ann's older'n me and she said 'wifses." "Huh," grunted Sally Ann. "Don' make no differ'nce what you call 'em, des so he had 'em. Gor'n tell her." "Well, you know, Mother, Blue Beard had such a bad habit of killin' his wives that that some of the ladies got so they they almost didn't like to marry him!" "Gracious, what a state of affairs," cried Mrs.
"'T is the differ'nce between a babe an' a pup or a kitten. The wan gets God into un at christenin', t' other wouldn't have no Holy Ghost in un if you baptised un over a hunderd times. For why? They 'm not built in the Image." "When all's said, you caan't look tu far ahead or be tu forehanded wi' bwoys," resumed Will.
They grabbed an' chawed an' bolted it like so many hogs an' reached out fer more, which is the differ'nce betwixt an Injun an' a white man. The white man gen'ally knows 'nough to shove down the brakes on a side-hill. The Injun ain't got no brakes on his wheels. Injuns is a good deal like white brats.
Leastways I don't know any more on it. I told you all about them two horses, and which had a good time and which didn't, and what 'twas made the differ'nce 'twixt 'em. But you want to know whether Jack got there. Well, I don't know no more 'n the horses did what there was, but in my own mind I b'leeve he got it.
"So I says, ''Leven, you never see anybody dead before. What's the differ'nce between her an' you? "'She can't move, 'Leven says, starin' down. "'Yes, sir, s'I, 'that's it. She's through doin' the things she was born to do, an' you ain't. "With that 'Leven looks at me. "'I can't do nothin', she says again. "'Why, then, says I, brisk, 'you're as good as dead, an' we'd best bury you, too.
Not that money did ought to make a differ'nce, but it do, an' that's the truth, an' it edn' no good makin' as though it doan't. What a world, to be sure! An' that letter from Noy? I knaw you was fond of en likewise in your time. The sadness of it! Just think o' that mariner comin' home 'pon top o' this mishap." Mary winced and answered coldly that the world was full of mishaps and of sadness.
