"They're coming up in August. Say, that fellow's got eleven merit badges, but the one thing he's crazy to get is the gold cross."
That this was a rather lame retraction was apparent even to Annie Boyle. She gave Josie a suspicious look, but Josie's face was absolutely expressionless. The maid was placing her order before her and she calmly began her breakfast. A moment later, the old lady rose and tottered out of the room. "Gee! I wish I had her money," remarked Annie Boyle, looking after her.

She leaned to him, with the color drained out of her face; and the crowd of black and pink and red dominos, gnomes gone mad, pressed, batted, surged. "Look out, Sweetness! Don't give out in here! They'll crush us out. Ain't you got no nerve? Here; don't give out now! Gee! Watch out, there! The lady's sick. Watch out! Here; now sit down a minute and get your wind."
They found a place away from door and window where some of the floor-boards still survived and sank down with their backs to the wall. Amy heaved a great sigh of relief.

"Glory be!" he stammered. "I thought you were completely spoiled." "I'm badly twisted," the girl managed to gasp, "but I guess I'm all here. Oh! What a bump!" "You scared me. I never dreamed I didn't hear a thing until Well, I looked up and there you were. The sky was full of you. Gee! I thought I'd lost my mind. Are you quite sure you're all right?"

He paused for a moment and eyed them doubtfully. "Gee!" he muttered. "I can't have those out. I'll have to buy some brushes."
"Why doesn't the fool run?" cried one man, quivering with suspense. "It's too late now! See, he's going to tackle the brute! He's got his hands out ready!
