Now you know what're you goin' to do about it?" "Shall I have Wild Cat take you out, one at a time," Jo asked mischievously, after a thoughtful pause. Keddie shrugged. "I ain't achin' for my portion o' that," he confessed, "but ol' Timberline will know he's been in a fight." "It was despicable of you boys," Jo said sternly. "We'll not fight that way." "But the empty water tank, Jo!" cried Heine.
I sometimes think, to see it like that, that to fall into it would be to tangle with the stars." Nan only laughed and stooped to lift a stone. She threw it into the very midst of the pool, and the mirror of the heavens was shattered. "I never thought I could throw into the sky so far," she said mischievously, pleased as it seemed to spoil the illusion in so sudden and sufficient a manner.
"How happy you look, Carrie, in spite of your three little Thornes," I said rather mischievously. "Has mother told you about Miss Lucas?" "Yes, I heard all about that," she returned, absently. "You are very fortunate, Esther, to find work in which you can take an interest. I am glad very glad about that."
'No, I'll tell you what they are come to steal, said Harold mischievously; 'it's all for Ellen's fine green ivy-leaf brooch that Matilda sent her! 'I dare say Harold has been and told him everything valuable in the house! said Ellen. 'I think, said Alfred gravely, 'it would be a very odd sort of thief to come here, when the farmer's ploughing cup is just by.

Miss Minty was not yet there; the Chinaman was alone in attendance. Mainwaring could not help whispering, half mischievously, to Louise, "You draw the line at Chinamen, I suppose?"
Scarcely had they gone a mile over rocks and ruts when the dim woods closed in on either side, imparting a strange coolness. It was almost like going through a leafy tunnel projecting branches brushed the top of the car and mischievously grazed and tickled their faces. The voices of the birds, clear in the stillness, seemed to complain at this intrusion into their domain.
True, there was something about "No eatables to be taken upstairs". But then the chicken had not been taken upstairs; it had come by a lift. Still, Jack could not quite quiet the little voice within. "No, I won't shock you with details," replied Cadbury mischievously. "Perhaps you wouldn't eat it if I did." "I'm not going to anyhow, thanks very much," returned Jack with sudden determination.

And then the face that was turned to his was the face of the Little Lady of the Big House, the mouth smiling mischievously, the eyes filled with roguery, as she said: "Let us go and devil Dick he's losing.
"And I'll see 'em I will. Sho!" Miss Hunniwell regarded him mischievously. "Jed," she asked, "would you like to be an aviator?" Jed's answer was solemnly given. "I'm afraid I shouldn't be much good at the job," he drawled. His visitor burst into another laugh. He looked at her over his glasses. "What is it?" he asked. "Oh, nothing; I I was just thinking of you in a uniform, that's all."
Whereupon Felicia called him a lamb, and kissed him, and he submitted. That night they had a cake. Eggs had been lavished on it to produce its delectable golden smoothness, and sugar had not been stinted. "It's a special occasion," Felicia apologized, "to celebrate the Sturgis Water Line and honor Captain Kenelm Sturgis defender of his kindred," she added mischievously.
