"Don't wanta go home!" came the heartbroken wail, "don't wanta go home. Mom Murphy'll git me." "I I tol' her," explained Mike uncomfortably, "that she mustn't open her mouth once jus' act deaf an' dumb or you'd guess maybe an' send her home an' Mom Murphy'd git her. An' an' she must take a drum like a boy " Literal Muggs!
Muggs buried her flushed and tearful little face on his shoulder with a sigh of content. He saw now that one knot of ribbon on the tousled, sunny curls would have told the story, then he glanced at the bagging suit and opened the door. Muggs went forth upon the Doctor's shoulder.
He would prove that he was as able as Seth Muggs or any of them! Nothing happened for nearly an hour, and Jamie was beginning to think that the search was to end in disappointment, when suddenly his heart gave a leap of joy. Far to the left and just visible through the trees rose the outlines of a great grey rock. "That's the rock!" exclaimed Jamie. "That's sure he!
These are sad changes. There was a striking similarity between their characters and positions. The Iron Duke was commander-in-chief of the allied forces at the battle of Waterloo, and Elias Muggs was commander of the Bluetown Fusileers.
I've got all the lieutenants identified, got their names and their muggs. I've got them shadowing me. Within an hour they will be on my track. How is that?" "It's great." "Watch them on my track.

In a lull all eyes turned to Muggs. His pockets were crammed with pop-corn and candy.
If you weren't so touchy, maybe you'd have diamonds sooner than you think. Want one now?" "Getaway, I know you're up to something. You and Monkey and Muggs are tied up with those Wall Street bond getaways." "For the luvagod, cut that talk here! First thing I know you'll have me in a brainstorm too."
Even Miss Muggs, who wears a business face that would have a head undertaker lookin' frivolous, loosens up her mouth corners for a second; while as for some of the other self-startin' queens well, they had me rosy in the ears, all right. I hurries past to where Mr. Piddie is tryin' to make his ingrowin' dignity let loose its grip for a minute. "Ah!" says he. "Back from the sunny South, eh?
There was no Maine liquor law at the time of which we speak. There was not even a temperance society in all Bluetown. Captain Muggs was in the green and salad days of youth. He was flushed with military success, young, ardent, and imprudent. He retired to a private room with the commissioned officers of his "corps," and left a liberal order at the bar.
But I think never to exceed the bounds of moderation more. * "Sunday, 28th, went down to Jones', where we drank one bowl of punch and two muggs of bumboo; and I came home again in liquor. Oh, with what horrors does it fill my heart, to think I should be guilty of doing so, and on a Sunday, too!
