If I could make a little money without disgrace, I should be pleased enough. Write to me at once what you think of this. How are you otherwise? 170 First of all, dearest friend, my best wishes for the new year 1855! May it turn out luckier for us than its predecessors have been. I hope you will not be angry with me.

Montgomery's book I have not much hope from, and the society with the affected name has been laboring at it for these twenty years, and made few converts. I think it was injudicious to mix stories, avowedly colored by fiction, with the sad, true statements from the parliamentary records, etc. But I wish the little negroes all the good that can come from it. You have been luckier.

"Sydney, I rather despair of making myself intelligible to you, because you are such an insensible dog." "And you," returned Sydney, busy concocting the punch, "are such a sensitive and poetical spirit " "You are a luckier, if you mean that." "I don't mean that. I mean I am a man of more more " "Say gallantry, while you are about it," suggested Carton. "Well! I'll say gallantry.

He introduced the stranger as Mr. Brandon, and the latter immediately made himself at home. "I hear you fellows got your set working first crack out of the box," he said, as they were going upstairs. "You're luckier than I was with my first one, because I had a lot of trouble before I got my first signal through. I fooled around a long time before I found out what the trouble was, too."

Didn't she give her clothes by the dozen that she hadn't worn a month? Did any girl have a better time in society? Was any girl luckier at poker? Was any girl more popular with men too bad it was generally the married ones that lost their heads....Better if she stopped fooling and married. By and by it would be too late. But she didn't want to marry. She was sick of men.

But as it chanced that her address was unknown to the volunteer constabulary, they had to assuage their ardour by thinking the dog luckier than they. The report of the dog was a fact.

To the present writer, as a reader, it seems, as has been already said whether justly or unjustly, that the element of "naturalness" it is an ugly word, and French has no better, in fact none at all: though German is a little luckier with natürlichkeit and Spanish much with naturaleza is rather conspicuously deficient in Byron.

"I am always going to play pinocle with you Sunday forenoons as long as you live, grandmother," said she. "After you are married?" "Yes, I am." "After you are married to a minister?" "Yes, grandmother." The old lady sat up straight and eyed Annie with her delighted china blue gaze. "Mr. von Rosen is a lucky man," said she. "Enough sight luckier than he knows.

When I came in sight of the log store and the woodpile where the steamboats lands I worked along under the trees and brush till I got to a good place, and then I clumb up into the forks of a cottonwood that was out of reach, and watched. There was a wood-rank four foot high a little ways in front of the tree, and first I was going to hide behind that; but maybe it was luckier I didn't.

Some of them helped me, some jeered in Dutch at "these foreigners with their childish ways." In the end I was luckier than Starr, for he had to march under the weight of his green elephant, half hidden behind it, as behind a screen, while my lilies were so popular with the ladies that not even as a favor would I have been allowed to carry one.
