Arthur McArthur, assistant adjutant-general to Gen. Wade, who was at that moment in command, was approached. Col. McArthur was a very busy man. He was also a very business-like man, and one of handsome appearance, easy access, and pleasant address. He sandwiched in a fifteen-minute interview between two pressing engagements, and manifested both interest and approval.
The same thing happened over and over again during the earlier part of his life, so that out of that epoch-making summer visit, for instance, only a single slight incident took up a lasting abode in his memory. The cottage stood in the middle of the island, which was so small that a fifteen-minute walk took them down to the nearest shore.
Then the humiliation which she joyfully supposed him to suffer through the infliction of such an indignity would be cancelled by a fifteen-minute talk which, as regarded Jane's intention at least, would be quite gracious and brilliant. Brower went through this ordeal serenely enough, and never hesitated to expose himself again.
It was not long before the Junction was reached, and here the Rovers had to part from a number of their friends. A fifteen-minute wait, and then their train came along. It was not more than half full, so the students had all the room they desired. "I must say, the farm will look pretty good to me," remarked Tom, when the time came for them to collect their belongings.
It was a fifteen-minute process from the curb to the first of the porch steps, and then Mrs. Goldstone leaned forward, her voice straining to keep its pitch. "Effie!" The young figure sprang around the porch pillar. "Mamma Hat! Honey, you didn't wait up for me?" Mr. Kessler came forward, goggles pushed up above his cap-visor. "Well, I'm hanged! What did you think that I was kidnapping the kid?"
They settled themselves comfortably to await a fifteen-minute stay, but in five he was out again. Both dust coat and clawhammer were off his sleeves were rolled to the elbow. "I'm in for it, boys," he said. "Can't get away under two hours at the shortest. Sorry. But they didn't let me know what they wanted me for, and I'm caught. You'll have to drive home.
The blacksmith is not prepared to mend the spring, although he makes a good job of the pedal, and it takes a carpenter and his assistant from 1.30 to 4.30 P.M. to manufacture a grooved piece of wood to fit between the spring and backbone so that he can ride with me to Belgrade. It would have been a fifteen-minute task for a Yankee carpenter.
An' when he told about it down town that morning, this little piece here had up an' offered. Somethin' had to be done he left it to me if they didn't. He felt his duty to the amusement park public, him. So he had closed with her for a dollar for three fifteen-minute turns he give two shillings a turn, on the usual, but she'd hung out stout for the even money.
Though, matter of fact, I'm hanged if I ever did quite see why you senior-level robots get so worked up about your identities." "Wouldn't you, Mr. Tilman?" "Of course. But well, yes, I suppose I do see, in a way. Let's go see Bennie-boy." So Ben Tilman went into the nursery and enjoyed every second of a fast fifteen-minute roughhouse with his round-faced, laughing, chubby son and heir.
One should practice in fifteen-minute periods and rest at least ten minutes between. The student should never sing more than two hours a day one in the morning and one in the afternoon. As most singers love their work, many are inclined to overdo. "Do not tamper with the two or three extreme upper or lower tones of your voice lest you strain and ruin it permanently.
