"If everybody was like you and your uncle," said Dick, "there would be some chance for poor people. If I was rich I'd try to help 'em along." "Perhaps you will be rich sometime, Dick." Dick shook his head. "I'm afraid all my wallets will be like this," said Dick, indicating the one he had received from the dropper, "and will be full of papers what aint of no use to anybody except the owner."
And, first, Shane, you haven't enough evidence to arrest this lady. That dropper thing is no positive information against her. It might be the work of the servants or some intruder. The story of that housemaid is not necessarily law and gospel. Remember, you'd get in pretty bad if you were to arrest Mrs, Sanford Embury falsely! And my influence with your superiors is not entirely negligible.
My mother said it showed just how bright I was, to travel six weeks with a man and not know he was a woman. Mr. Keefer said he guessed there was no harm done. The next day I received a letter from an old gentleman living at Bronson, Mich., who had just patented a dropper for a reaping-machine, and wanted me to sell County rights for him, and establish agencies.
"Showers and clouds and winds, All things well and proper; Trailer, red and white, Dark and wily dropper. Midges true to fling Made of plover hackle, With a gaudy wing, And a cobweb tackle." "Cobweb tackle, eh, Charlotte? Yes, certainly; for a hand that can manage it.
So I took off the vulgar bait-hook and put on a delicate leader with a Queen of the Water for a tail-fly and a Yellow Sally for a dropper, innocent little confections of feathers and tinsel, dressed on the tiniest hooks, and calculated to tempt the appetite or the curiosity of the most capricious trout.
"Isn't it sweet?" murmured the little missionary as she laid the weakling before the fire and fed it barley water with an ink dropper. "I'm going to keep it for my very own. I've always wanted one," she announced joyfully. "Well, you just won't do anything of the kind," was my firm conclusion. I had no wish to be unkind, but repression was the only course left.
This acid is prepared for use as follows: about twenty drops of muriatic acid are procured from a druggist in a half-ounce bottle, which is then filled up with water and kept tightly corked. It is applied by taking a drop out on a wisp of broom or a small minim dropper, which may be obtained at the druggist's also.
If you see me flapping wings like a bat's, as big as the whole sky, don't be frightened. If you hear me raging ten times worse than Mrs. Bill, the blacksmith's wife even if you see me looking in at people's windows like Mrs. Eve Dropper, the gardener's wife you must believe that I am doing my work.
A little vial lay there, and the medicine dropper and wine glass waiting. She turned her head uneasily and moved away. She must save it for the night for the dark hours that never passed. But she must think of something! She glanced about her, and rang the bell sharply, and waited. "I want the Greek boy," she said, "send him to me!" "Yes, madame."
Edestone, as quietly as if he were standing on the bridge of the Storm Queen giving instructions for the next day's cruise, turned to "Specs." "Go out and circle them," he said, "meet the leading ship, and then with every gun, aerial torpedo, and bomb dropper destroy them."
