"What yuh doin' that for?" the shrillest voice repeated three times rapidly, with a sniffle now and then by way of punctuation. "To make little girls ask questions," grunted Casey, glancing around him for the snub-nosed, double-headed, four-pound hammer which he called affectionately by the name Maud. The biggest girl had Maud.
While the citoyenne Poitrine was attending to the soup, which she tasted from time to time as a good cook should, Élodie was cutting up into slices a four-pound loaf hot from the oven. Gamelin, when he saw what she was doing, addressed her: "A few days ago I read a book written by a young German whose name I have forgotten, and which has been very well translated into French.
"Sweetheart honey," he purred, reaching out tender hands toward her. She put up a warning finger. "There's no one looking," he answered her. "Yes, there is." "Who?" "Four-Pound." "He don't matter." "I'm not sure," she answered gravely. "He's a funny little look in his eye." He was making passes close to her face and throat. She restrained him. "Wait," she said gently. He dropped his hands.
Louise's earnings constituted the surest part of their revenue. What a strange paradox is the social life in large cities, where Weber's Last Waltz will bring the price of a four-pound loaf of bread, and one pays the grocer with the proceeds of Boccherini's Minuet! In spite of all, they had hard work to make both ends meet at the Gerards.
We mostly use hooks too small and do not look after points and barbs closely enough. A pair of No. 1 O'Shaughnessy, or 1 1/2 Sproat, or five tapered blackfish hooks, will make a killing rig for small-mouthed bass using No. 4 Sproat for lip hook. Larger hooks are better for the big-mouthed, a four-pound specimen of which will easily take in one's fist.
Look well to your change! Ring the silver on the four-pound weight! Shove back all English half-pence and base copper tokens, such as are very plenty about town! At your leisure hours, knit children's woollen socks and mittens! Brew your own yeast, and make your own ginger-beer!"
Lord bless you, Peter! why, she looks as spare as a shark, and she has just the appetite of one; for she'll boil a four-pound piece of pork before it's well put on her plate." "Have you any more such pleasant intelligence to communicate, O'Brien?" "No, Peter, you have the worst of it.

What say?" The dog stood on his hind legs and barked for joy. He read the sign in her eyes if he did not understand her lip-message. In another moment he was gulping down a fat, four-pound salmon, while Marian eyed him, a curious questioning look on her face. "Now," she said, as the dog finished, "the question is what are we going to do with you? You're an old dog. You're no good in a team.
The sight of the place made her sick, and she turned toward Montmartre. She passed crowds of workwomen with little parcels in their hands and children who had been sent to the baker's, carrying four-pound loaves of bread as tall as themselves, which looked like shining brown dolls. By degrees the crowd dispersed, and Gervaise was almost alone. Everyone was at dinner.
