A door opened upon the side porch, and to the girls' nostrils was wafted a most delicious odor of frying cakes. "That settles it!" ejaculated Jennie Stone, and immediately sprang out of the car. "I'm as hungry as a bear. I'll see you to-morrow, Nell, if you'll ride over. But don't come too near mealtime. I never could withstand Aunt Alvirah's cooking. M-mm!
Billy Louise pulled out a little piece, nibbled a corner, and pronounced, "M-mm! Jerky! I'm going to swipe some of that," which she proceeded to do, to the extent of filling her pocket. For to those who have learned to like it, jerked venison is quite as desirable as milk chocolate or any other nibbly tid-bit.
Politics below the Rio Grande are 'mighty onsartain, as Brother Jase would say." "Now that Mammy Blanche is here with us, I would not have to go to Poketown, even if you did go to Mexico, Daddy. Would I?" "M-mm! Well, that's hard telling," he replied, with twinkling eyes. "Let's not cross that bridge till we come to it."
"I could just jump out of my skin when I think of it! Every time I ride with Stella Latham I'm just as covetous as I can be. I guess I am real wicked, Daddy." "I shouldn't be surprised," he returned, smiling. "It would be nice to have all the comforts and the luxuries of the rich without their troubles." "M-mm!" said Janice. "But even their troubles can't be so bad.

"And now they are too small, anyway. I've grown a lot since a year ago." "Oh, Janice!" "So you are going to wear one of them to Stella's party," declared Janice confidently. "The pink and white one if you like."
I dare say any of us can fry an egg and make coffee; and you can buy almost everything ready to eat nowadays." "Tell you who's a whale of a cook," said Perry eagerly. "That's Ossie Brazier. Remember the time we camped at Mirror Lake last Spring? Remember the flapjacks he made? M-mm!" "I didn't go," said Steve. "What sort of a chap is Brazier? I don't know him very well."
"Certainly not the people who stole our grub; so we can't claim this in return. Oh, I smell coffee! 'M-mm!" Unwilling to intrude further on what was so evidently a girls' picnic, and yet equally unable to tear themselves away from the enticing scene, the boys stood, a comically eager crowd, looking vainly about for signs of the picnic party.
"Well, young man, you get right into bed." The surgeon closed the door. Pete undressed grumblingly. "Now turn over. I want to look at your back. M-mm! Thought so. A little feverish. Did you walk much?" "Nope! We took a rig. I was with the sheriff." "I see! Excitement was a little too much for you. You'll have to go slow for a few days." "I'm feelin' all right," asserted Pete. "You think you are.
"M-mm, 'grand entertainment. Five hundred for flowers. Gown of hostess embroidered in seed pearls. Jewels a thousand, and at least ten' are you sure this is what you meant me to read? You know it's all Greek to me!" looking down with deprecation into her laughing, upturned eyes. "Perfectly sure. You see who gave that entertainment?" "Yes, I see."
