"Is this little Miss Pepper?" he asked pompously of Polly, who answered his rap on the door. Now whether she was little "Miss Pepper" she never had stopped to consider. "I don't know sir; I'm Polly." And then she blushed bright as a rose, and the laughing brown eyes looked beyond to Jasper, who stood on the walk, and smiled encouragingly.

In a moment her arms were about his neck, and she whispered encouragingly, whilst caressing him, "Papa, now that I have not been thrust down that fearful abyss, believe me, we shall be very happy yet." He gave her a long look; then shook his head, but did not speak. "Endeavor to keep up your spirits, dearest papa; you seem depressed, but that is natural after what you have suffered.

Do you think we ought to send young misses." Garbage men are needed for the collection of garbage; one cannot hold one's nose when they come for their wages; one must pay them well, talk to them encouragingly, and leave them plenty of elbow room. Danton is willing to play the part of the fire, and he humors vices; he has no scruples, and lets people scratch and take.

I desire an allegorical representation of Culture. Do you think, now," asked Mr. Leavenworth, encouragingly, "you could rise to the conception?" "A most interesting subject for a truly serious mind," remarked Miss Blanchard. Roderick looked at her a moment, and then "The simplest thing I could do," he said, "would be to make a full-length portrait of Miss Blanchard.

Baker grunted encouragingly in our midst, spluttering and blowing amongst the tangled ropes like an energetic porpoise. Favoured by an ominous and untrustworthy lull, the work was done without any one being lost either off the deck or from the yard. For the moment the gale seemed to take off, and the ship, as if grateful for our efforts, plucked up heart and made better weather of it.

When at a safe distance they luffed into the wind and, furling their canvas, came to anchor. Cavendish, seeing that the remainder of his little squadron was safe, ordered the wreckage to be cut adrift and the decks cleared for further operations. "Work away with a will, lads!" he cried encouragingly.

I had not replied to them encouragingly. In truth, my heart was then devoted to another, the English girl whom I had wooed as my wife; who, despite her parents' retraction of their consent to our union when they learned how dilapidated were my fortunes, pledged herself to remain faithful to me, and wait for better days."

Even he at last showed signs of giving way, and spoke less encouragingly than before. He was silent for some time. I saw him looking out eagerly, when he exclaimed "Cheer up, Harry, there is a canoe approaching; it will bring us help." I gazed in the direction towards which he pointed. At first I could only see a speck on the water.

And with that he stuck his hands suddenly in his pockets, turned away from me, and stared very resolutely out of the dirty bow-window. When the waiter had brought the drinks and retired again, Hartnoll confessed to me that he had never tasted beer. "You'll come to it in time," said I encouragingly: but I fancy that the tap at the Blue Posts was of a quality to discourage a first experiment.

"Come and look at it," he said encouragingly. "They're beautiful in this part of the country. Come and watch it." "I'll not watch it!" cried Peg. "Shut it out!" Once more the young man closed the curtains. Peg looked at him and said in an awe-struck voice: "They say if ye look at the sky when the lightnin' comes ye can see the Kingdom of Heaven.
