Your second joints were very sweet and juicy, and your drumsticks were like sticks of candy." "And you broke my poor old wishbone with your little sister, didn't you?" "I did." "And what did you wish?" asked the gobbler. "You mustn't ask me that," replied Donald, "because, you know, if I tell you the wish I made it would not come true."
"Well," exclaimed Helen, "your hands will tremble so, no doubt you can roll the drumsticks admirably." "Yes, to be sure," replied Frank, with a meaning smile; for he thought within himself, "If she really thinks I am such a coward, never mind; she'll learn better some day."
"Ladies and gentlemen, I'll tell you what there is now," shouted I. "There's "Two drumsticks of fowls, and a bone of ham. Fourteen bottles of ginger-beer," &c. &c. &c. And I went through the whole list of eatables as before, ending with the ham-sandwiches and the pot of jelly. "Law! Mr. Gahagan," said Mrs. Colonel Vandegobbleschroy, "give me the ham-sandwiches I must manage to breakfast off them."
His eyes passed with relief to the wholesome ugliness of the little Englishman pounding at the smugglers' heels. Knapp had dropped his drumsticks, and was limping along now naked- fisted. His eyes were shut, and his running drawers red in patches as his tunic. He was merry no more, his head on one shoulder, labouring painfully in his stride.
He had also been told that he should get his drum and drumsticks; but in this he was disappointed. The department was out of drums. "Never mind!" said Jack, consolingly.

The surgeons are so lazy, or have so much to do, or something, it may be a week before you'll be examined."

And now he was toiling up a steep cliff, and had slung his drum over his shoulder, and stuck his drumsticks in his bandoleer. The sun baked and broiled upon the hills; but in the clefts there was a coolness as of a rushing roaring waterfall.
While boiling put into this a handful of raisins, handful of blanched almonds, pounded, half a lemon, sliced thin, a few cloves, a pinch of cinnamon, and a little horseradish. Fine for roast beef. Poulet a la Napoli Cut and trim a chicken as for fricassee. Take the wings, drumsticks, thighs and two pieces of the breast and steep them in cold water half an hour.
Soon were heard the deep breathings preceding the trance, then the 'Indian' began to manifest, at first somewhat sullenly, as if not pleased with the conditions, some of the instruments sounded, and at last the drumsticks began their tattoo.
She fetched it from its corner, with the drumsticks; hitched the sling over her beautiful neck; tightened the straps carefully; and began to play a soft tattoo. The old man leaned back in his chair; felt in his pocket; and having found a silk bandanna handkerchief, unfolded it deliberately, cast it over his head and composed himself to slumber. The tattoo ran on, peaceful as a brook.
