Stubbs," said Hal. "You've gone through a lot, but you are still here, aren't you?" "I am," said Stubbs calmly, "but I wish I were some place else." "Well, give me an hour or two to look over our machine and you will soon be some place else," said Hal. "And the chances are I'd rather be some place than where I am likely to be if I keep monkeying around in the air," replied the little man.
Even Frona and Del himself were forced to smile, and the only sober face was the prisoner's. "But he quarrelled with Old Andy at Dyea, and with Chief George of the Chilcoots, and the Factor at Pelly, and so on down the line. He got us into no end of trouble, and 'specially woman-trouble. He was always monkeying around " "Mr. Chairman, I object."
Whether the queen loved it, her first baby, was hard to tell. Did she, indeed, ever love anything? She certainly did her duty by it; but what was the use of setting up to be a queen, anyway, if she could not do that? And, moreover, you've got to do your duty in the wild. There's no profit in monkeying with Nature, as is possible with civilization, for the penalty thereof is death.

In my day the boys learned to farm by honest sweating, and every gal could cook, or her ma learned her how across her knee! Besides, ain't there a county agent at Wakamin? He comes here once a fortnight, maybe. That's enough monkeying with this scientific farming Champ says there's nothing to it anyway. "And as for a lecture hall haven't we got the churches?
I didn't know how you'd feel about it, with all your associations with colleges and so on, and I'm glad you feel that way. What the country needs just at this present juncture is neither a college president nor a lot of monkeying with foreign affairs, but a good sound economical business administration, that will give us a chance to have something like a decent turnover."

The old fourteen-hour trip to Hull often takes us forty now. Every passage is different, too. It isn't only on the sea that the Germans try to bother us; they also keep after us when we are in port here. Only yesterday the Dutch inspectors did us a good turn by arresting five spies monkeying around the boat three Germans and two Dutchmen."
Then, more sharply: "Reach for the roof. No monkeying." Benson, the cashier, was no coward, but neither was he a fool. He knew when not to take a chance. Promptly his arms shot up. But even while he obeyed, his eyes were carrying to his brain a classification of this man for future identification.
