Now please tell the Prince that he positively cannot afford to miss a real sparring match. Every one is terribly excited over it, and naturally we are keeping it very quiet. Won't it be a lark? My daughter thinks it's terrible, but she is finicky. One of them is a negro, isn't he?" "I'm sure I don't know." "You can imagine how splendid they must be when I tell you that Mr.

How he gets away with that stuff without makin' the rock pile is by me, but he seems to do it reg'lar. And wouldn't you guess he'd be just the one to have finicky ideas as to how his son and heir should conduct himself. Sure thing! I heard him sketchin' some of 'em out to Old Hickory. "The trouble with most young fellows," says he, "is that they're brought up too soft.

The fire insurance companies are getting absurdly finicky about the risks. Now they insist on knowing the weight of every inmate of the houses they insure. Has something to do with the displacement of oxygen, I believe. Your mother and I and the servants, too expect to be weighed to-night." "Oh," she said, and resumed her reading. He waited for a while, fumbling nervously with his watch chain.

They descended the spiral stairway to the grillroom, where an orchestra was playing jazz, and dancers gyrated on a polished floor, and diners in evening dress looked on over their cigarettes.

To her doorstep a great pock-marked man, bushy-browed and of knob-like visage, was walking one day with her finicky dandified neighbor M. Robespierre. As he passed, the titan turned and inquired kindly: "Are you the little girl who lost her sister?"

A minute and rather finicky care of his wardrobe had been second nature to him the habits of a soldier systematised the routine and he was satisfied that his clothes would outlast winter demands, although laundry expenses appalled him. As for his clubs, he hung on to them, knowing the importance of appearances in a town which is made up of them.

He looked around for the familiar sign of a saloon. "That's the talk," exclaimed the other with a swagger. "That's how yer paw used ter put it. Your maw warn't much good no how, with her finicky notions 'bout eddicati'n an' sech. A little pone and baken with plenty good ol' red eye's good 'nough fer us. Yer maw she "

"When Donald can't find anything that he's gone and lost himself," went on Cricket, still addressing the sky, "he always says he wishes the girls would let his things alone. Boys are the funniest."

"But there's another where that came from. Perhaps you could drink another tumblerful, my boy?" Bob drank it! "Those gentry are hard to kill." Here is fact, not fantasy. Lizard yarns no less sensational than this Mystery Story can be found between the covers of solemn, zoological textbooks. Reptiles, indeed, are far from finicky in the matters of air, space, and especially warmth.

This youngster, Merriwell, who is promoting the scheme, is altogether too finicky about the manner in which the deal shall be financiered.
