"Why, if that isn't Brother Kalle sitting there!" said Lasse, in a voice of surprise as great as if the meeting were a miracle from heaven. "Good evening, Kalle Karlsson! How are you?" The stone-breaker looked up. "Oh, there you are, brother!" he said, rising with difficulty; and the two greeted one another as if they had met only the day before.
Ah! yes, it has been good to live in my old age and have them all about me Kalle and Maria and the children. And all of my own age have gone before me; it's been nice to see what became of them all." "How old are you now, grandmother?" asked Lasse. "Kalle has looked it up in the church-book, and from that I ought to be almost eighty; but that can scarcely be right."
And it couldn't have happened at a better time, as we've got to have the midwife anyhow!" Lasse and Pelle drew their neckerchiefs up over their mouths after taking leave of every one in the room, Kalle circling round them restlessly, and talking eagerly. "Come again soon, you two, and thanks for this visit and your present, Brother Lasse!
Kalle did not seem inclined to contradict him, but Pelle made up his mind that some day he would teach his father to read and write much better than Uncle Kalle could. "But we're quite forgetting that we brought a Christmas bottle with us!" said Lasse, untying the handkerchief. "You are a fellow!" exclaimed Kalle, walking delightedly round the table on which the bottle stood.
It wasn't like what it is now, with debts and drinking and card-playing, so people had something then." "Well, now they'd like to thresh the corn while it's still standing, and they sell the calves before they're born," said Kalle. "But I say, grandmother, you're Black Peter!" "That comes of letting one's tongue run on and forgetting to look after one's self!" said the old lady.
The attached table shows us how the production of any particular war chemical involved a number of stages, each of which occurred in a different factory. The directors of the I.G. simply chose a particular plant in a particular factory which was most suited for the operation concerned. They Phenyl Carbylamine 1. Aniline Condensation of aniline Kalle Chloride 2. Chlorine with carbon bisul 3.
"What a surprise it'll be to-morrow morning when they come here and find the nest empty!" said Pelle gaily. Lasse chuckled. Their plan was to take shelter with Kalle for a day or two, while they took a survey of what the world offered. When everything was done in the evening, they took the green chest between them, and stole out through the outside door into the field.
He wrote the figure eight. Lasse turned the slate up and down, and peered at it. "Yes, upon my word, it is the same! Just look here, Pelle! It's like the cat that always comes down upon its feet, no matter how you drop it. Lord bless my soul! how nice it must be to be able to spell! How did you learn it, brother?" "Oh," said Kalle, in a tone of superiority.
Kalle pretended to discover the bottle for the first time. "What! Why, we've got gin on the table, too, and not one of us has smelt it!" he exclaimed, and filled their glasses for the third time. Then Maria corked the bottle. "Do you even grudge us our food?" he said, making great eyes at her what a rogue he was!
"If you aren't kind to little Marie, I shall tell Uncle Kalle," said Pelle warningly. She spat contemptuously. "Then you can tell him. Yes, I wish to God you'd do it! Then he'd come and take her away, and delighted I should be!" But now Due was heard stamping on the flags outside the door, and they could hear him too consoling the child.
