As an instance of their despatch, they will take your bedding ashore in the morning, and by tea-time you will receive it ready for turning in, the blanket washed and dried, the hair teazed and made so soft that you would scarcely fancy it was the same old "doss" again. Though the women do not wash our clothes, they do what is far harder work, i.e. coal our ship.

You mighd doss all those crysdals indo the fire with imbunidy; but bowder them and mix indo a baste with a zerdain acid, and whad you now hold in your hand would develop exblosive bower enough to demolish this building," was the quiet reply.

Near the foot of the bed was a dent in the crimson quilt, and out of it Doss' small head and bright eyes looked knowingly. Then Gregory looked up at what lay on the cushion. A little white, white face, transparent as an angel's with a cloth bound round the forehead, and with soft hair tossed about on the pillow. "We had to cut it off," said the woman, touching it with her forefinger.

He could not quite have told any one why he was so glad, and this warmth had come to him. His cheeks were burning. No wonder that Bonaparte called in vain, and Doss put his paws on the ladder, and whined till three-quarters of an hour had passed. At last the boy put the book in his breast and buttoned it tightly to him. He took up the salt pot, and went to the top of the ladder.

'E'll think you're a man in reg'lar work by your being up so early." "P'raps," said Beale thoughtfully, running his hand over the rustling stubble of his two days' beard "p'raps I'd best get a wash and brush-up first, eh? It might be worth it in the end. I'll 'ave to go to the doss to get our pram and things, any'ow." The landlord of the desired house really thought Mr.

A whim, and the necessity of delay, led Doss to suggest that they take a look up the Obion River as a likely hiding place. Of course, Doss knew best, and they quit the tumbling Mississippi for the quiet wooded aisle of the little river. When they emerged, two days later, Augustus Carline could well thank his stars, though he did not know it, that he was still on the boat.

The Caliph asked Ahmad Kamakim, "Doss thou repent of thy sins?" So he kissed the Caliph's hands and, being invested with the uniform of Captain of the Watch, he went forth, whilst they made proclamation of his appointment.

I saluted him, and he said to me, 'I have somewhat to say to thee privily. So I brought him in and said to him, 'What hast thou to say to me? Quoth he, 'Come with me to thine other house. 'Doss thou then know my other house, asked I. 'I know all about thee, replied he, 'and I know that also wherewith God will dispel thy concern. So I said to myself, 'I will go with him whither he will; and we went out and walked on till we came to my other house, which when he saw, he said to me, 'It is without door or doorkeeper, and we cannot sit in it; so come thou with me to another house. Accordingly, he went on from place to place and I with him, till the night overtook us.

'Now then, there, the park-keeper shouted to the man with the sailor's cap, 'get up! This ain't a fourpenny doss, you know. No lying down. A rough shake accompanied the words, and the man sat up. 'All right, my friend. The keeper, who was a good-humoured man, passed on without further objurgation. The face of the younger man had grown whiter.

"When did they get your guns?" "I woke up, up there, and you were gone. My guns and pocket money were gone, too. I thought " "You thought I'd robbed you?" "Ye Well, I didn't know!" "This is a devil of a river, old man!" said Terabon. "I guess you travelled with the real thing out of New Madrid " "Doss, Renald Doss. He said he was a sportsman "
