Minima was set upon a chair opposite to it, with her feet in the oven, and I was invited to do the same. I assented mechanically, and looked furtively about me, while madame was busy in cutting a huge hunch or two of black bread, and spreading upon them a thin scraping of rancid butter. There was an oil-lamp here, burning with a clear, bright blaze. Madame's face was illuminated by it.
We talked of it all the evening, planning to spend in fruit or milk such money as we had saved, against all the habits of school-life. After dinner next day, we set out at half-past twelve, each provided with a square hunch of bread, given to us for our afternoon snack.
But nowadays it is different, and Dan Cupid spends most of his time on the hot foot between the coroner's office and the divorce court. I've got a hunch that young people these days are more emotional and like to see their pictures in the newspapers.
Ross had a hunch that it might not be, and that really hurt. It was deep night now. Either they had flown out of the path of the storm or were above it. There were stars shining through the cover of the cockpit, but no moon.
"Play ball!" you hear the fans exclaim, when weary of a dragging game, when all the players pause to state their theories in a joint debate, or when they go about their biz as though they had the rheumatiz.

The judge obeyed, and went straight to the palace, accompanied by the tailor, the Jewish doctor, and the Christian merchant; causing four of his men to carry the hunch corpse along with him. The judge, on appearing before the sultan, threw himself at the prince's feet, and, after recovering himself, gave him a faithful relation of what he knew of the story of the crump-backed man.
"Wal," said Blaisdell, gruffly, "let's get down to business.... I'm for havin' Blue be foreman of this heah outfit, an' all of us to do as he says." Gaston Isbel opposed this selection and indeed resented it. He intended to lead the Isbel faction. "All right, then. Give us a hunch what we're goin' to do," replied Blaisdell.
I wants to know if Stiff Miller is still manager down at No. 11 branch, and who's wearin' the red stripe yet; while Hunch he puts over a few polite quizzes as to how I'm gettin' on with the Corrugated people. We hadn't been gassin' but five minutes or so, and there's ten more due on the clock before lunch hour is over, when I looks up to see our Mr. Piddie going by and givin' me the frown.
"We've shore got our own troubles, an' keepin' her 'll only add to them. I've a hunch. Now you know I ain't often givin' to buckin' your say-so. But this deal ain't tastin' good to me. Thet girl ought to be sent home." "But mebbe there's somethin' in it for us. Her sister 'd pay to git her back." "Wal, I shore hope you'll recollect I offered thet's all," concluded Wilson.
"They've no dogs," said Smoke. "Yep; there's a couple of men pullin' on a sled." "See that fellow fall down? There's something the matter, Shorty, and there must be two hundred of them." "Look at 'em stagger as if they was soused. There goes another." "It's a whole tribe. There are children there." "Smoke, I win," Shorty proclaimed. "A hunch is a hunch, an' you can't beat it. There she comes.
