It is only a step, and we are soon resting on one of the semi-circular stone seats, listening to some primitive music and watching the enjoyment of the people. Mrs. Steele draws my head down on her shoulder and I shut my eyes. The Baron puts a coat over me and hums a low accompaniment to the fantastic air.
"Besides, suppose she turns out rubbish! What do you know about her?" "I take my chance," agreed the generous doctor. "It wouldn't be fair," retorted honest Peter. "Tink it over," said the doctor.

"Ay tank you yust wait one leedle w'ile," said the Swedish boat- builder, who had struck his Klondike right there and was wise enough to know it "one leedle w'ile und I make you a tam fine skiff boat, sure Pete."
"I like your customs better in zome dthings, but it makes you vomans too clevair; you know men better dthan ve know you." "You have the same opportunities.

I doand know what pecome oaf us now, what pecome oaf my leedle babby." She went on, holding Hilda against her shoulder with one arm as best she might, one hand steadying herself against the fence railings along the sidewalk.

They brought a quarter of a saddle to Colonel Clark, but he smiled at them kindly and told them to divide it amongst the weak. He looked at me as I sat with my feet crossed on the stump.
To linger near our table once or twice during dinner with an air of respectful vacuity, as of one who knew himself too well to be guilty of the presumption of attempting to understand our brilliancy, to wear a certain parental pride and unconsciousness in our fame, and yet to never go further in seeming to comprehend it than to obligingly translate the name of the Club as "a leedle more and nod quide so much" was to him sufficient happiness.
