Buster volunteered to remain over with him and see that he was properly looked after. "Somebody explain to Mattie King just why I can't get back!" he called out. "Oh, don't bother yourself about that, Buster," remarked Jack Eastwick, coolly, "for I'd already made up my mind to see her home." "You have? I've got half a notion but, no, this once won't count.
Translated by E.B. Eastwick, ch. iii. The chief obstacle to our arriving at these salutary views is that hypocrisy of the world to which I have already alluded an hypocrisy which should be early revealed to the young. Most of the glories of the world are mere outward show, like the scenes on a stage: there is nothing real about them.
What a pity to bury such a man in fish-boots and cod-livers!" "My dear ," said Captain Eastwick, "you are a goose. The highest genius lives above the littleness of making a career. This man needs no Academy prizes or praises. To my mind, his is the noblest, happiest life of all." Whereupon he told me the story which I have endeavored to relate.
And while he was eating she sat with her feet on the fender, talking of some girls in the neighbourhood their jealousies, and how Edith Eastwick could not think of anything for herself, but always copied her dresses. Dandy drowsed at her feet, and very often she would take him to the window and make him go through all his tricks, calling on Hubert to admire him.
"Well, they left me out this time, too; my first half in the game with Clifford wasn't a howling success. But at any rate I'm a sub, and if a few of the boys get carried off the field they may call on me," and Jack Eastwick patted his chest in anticipation of the slaughter to come. For the concluding tussle of the High School League the contending teams presented this line-up: COLUMBIA.
"Here's Buster, he knows the dog better than anyone else," said Jack Eastwick, pushing the fat boy forward. "Oh, yes, I've had an intimate acquaintance with him. He's tasted of me three different times," declared the unwilling candidate for honors. "Still, he knows you?" said Jack, in a wheedling voice. "Sure, and I think he likes me, which shows Kaiser has good taste.
Such is the reputation he left behind him, and which is given to him in Russia to this day." In 1849 the firm of Winans, Harrison and Eastwick had already furnished the road with 162 locomotives, 72 passenger and 2,580 freight cars. They had also arranged to instruct a suitable number of Russian mechanics to take charge of the machinery when completed.
I have ventured to derive the familiar "Puss" from the Arab. "Ikhwan al-Safa," a popular term for virtuous friends who perfectly love each other in all purity: it has also a mystic meaning. There is a well-known Hindustani book of this name printed by Prof. Forbes in Persian character and translated by Platts and Eastwick.
The Gulistan of Sadi, which was the next book issued, is best known in England from the translations by James Ross and Edward B. Eastwick . Sadi's aim was to make "a garden of roses whose leaves the rude hand of the blast of Autumn could not affect." "The very brambles and rubbish of this book," says an ancient enthusiastic admirer, "are of the nature of ambergris."
When she returned, she saw that you had changed your place, and she said to Ethel Eastwick, "Oh, I'm fainting. I cannot go in there; they are together." Ethel had to take her up to her room. Well, this morbid sensitiveness is most unhealthy. If I walk out on the terrace, she follows, thinking that I have made an appointment to meet you. Jealousy of me fills up her whole mind.
