Uncle Kurz is coming this afternoon, and I'll ask father and mother to let me go home with him, for I couldn't remain here and see it all just yet." "Do so, Lina, for then you'll be with his parents, and when you both come back, I'll ask Godfrey to get his father to look out for a situation for me as governess in some town far, far from home, for I couldn't stay here either."

"Goodness, gracious me!" said Mrs. Nüssler, "I wonder what will happen this afternoon! It's very disagreeable. Kurz is coming at coffee-time, and he is desperately angry with his son for playing such a trick on his cousin. You'll see that there will be a terrible scene."

Gnu, with dignity, "I didn't suppose I was to be insulted at your table." And she went toward the door. "Mrs. Gnu, Mrs. Gnu," said Polly, smothering her laughter as well as she could, "don't go.

We have each got to refurnish every few years, and therefore have no possible opportunity for attaching ourselves to the objects about us.

"Splendid!" ejaculated Kurz Pacha. "I've no doubt he'll explain it all in the morning," continued Mrs. Potiphar, "there's some mistake; why not be cool about it? Besides, Mr. De Famille is an elderly gentleman and requires his rest. I do think you're positively unchristian, Mr. Potiphar. The idea of insulting the De Familles!" And Mrs.

"Have you been shipwrecked, Kurz Pacha?" asked I suddenly. He laughed softly: "No, Miss Minerva, I am not one of the hardy navigators; I keep close in to the shore. Upon the slightest symptom of an agitated sea, I furl my sails, and creep into a safe harbor. Besides, dear Miss Minna I prefer tropical cruises to the Antarctic voyage." And the old wretch actually looked at my black hair.
