He hesitated, then pushed on. "You're fine and clean and generous what a good father and mother, and all this have made you." He swept his hand round in a wide gesture to include the sun and the hills and all the brave life of the open. "If I come too near you, don't you see I taint you? I'm a man who was shut up because " "Fiddlesticks! You're a man who has been done a wrong.
"I don't think the mercantile business is my forte, father," said I. "Your fort!" replied the old gentleman; "fiddlesticks! We have nothing to do with military matters.

Her voice, behind him, murmured: "You mustn't come down, Uncle; you must rest." "Fiddlesticks! A glass of champagne'll soon set me to rights. I can't have you missing the opera."

You never think of Evelyn's future. We are asking people that we think she ought to know." "Well, Burnett is a very agreeable fellow." "Fiddlesticks! He is nothing but a law clerk.
You ought to see a doctor." "Fiddlesticks!" exclaimed Jadwin. "I'm all right. Haven't time to see a doctor." So the month of May drew to its close, and as Jadwin beheld more and more the broken speculators, with their abject humility, a vast contempt for human nature grew within him.
