"Possibly a little cold lamb with a suggestion of potato salad on the side might satisfy us," I said; "make me an estimate."

"Ask him if there's a bargain counter anywhere in the dining-room," whispered Peaches.
Smaller thin New York, but th' livin' was cheaper, with Mon'gahela rye at five a throw, put ye'er hand around th' glass. "I was still dreamin' goold, an' I wint down to Saint Looey. Th' nearest I come to a fortune there was findin' a quarther on th' sthreet as I leaned over th' dashboord iv a car to whack th' off mule. Whin I got to Chicago, I looked around f'r the goold mine.

When Looey and I was hitching up to drive down town to give the show, one of the hosses stepped on his foot and I laughed at that, and there was purty nigh a fight. And I was handling some bottles and broke one and cut my hand on a piece of glass. I held it out fur a minute dumb-like, with the blood and medicine dripping off of it, and all of a sudden I busted out laughing agin.
And then I seen how I could do it, and not get took up fur it, neither. So, without thinking, all of a sudden I jumps up and says: "Say, Doctor Kirby, I got a scheme!" They jumps up too, and they looks at me startled. Then the doctor kind o' laughs and says: "Why, it's the young blacksmith!" Looey, he says, looking at me hard and suspicious: "What kind of a scheme are you talking about?"
