"What're you eatin'?" "Peanuts, Jane," perfect frankness being the rule when concealment was not possible. Jane came over.

Thomas shifted from foot to foot.
"You know," said the co-pilot, "there was the devil of a time during the War with sabotage. Down in Brazil there was a field planes used to take off from to fly to Africa. But they'd take off, head out to sea, get a few miles offshore, and then blow up. We must've lost a dozen planes that way! Then it broke.
Whereupon the seats revolved gayly, the Arabs curvetted; and from the base of the stout canopy pole there sounded a merry tune. "And what a pile of money it must've cost! Why, it's as natural as the big one in the Park!" The music and the horses appealed. Other considerations moved temporarily into the background as Gwendolyn watched and listened. Thomas broke the string of the smaller package.
"I don't know must've been in the house I told cabby to wait Anisty seems to have walked out right on your heels." "Hell!" And a moment later: "What's this about a woman in the case?" Maitland took swift thought on her behalf. "Too long to go into now," he parried the query. "You help me catch this scoundrel Anisty and I'll put in a good word for you with the deputy commissioner."

What's the matter?" he burst out as she made no answer, "can't you hear, or don't you care?" "I can hear," she replied categorically, "and I don't care." "Oh! Like the rest of 'em, hey?

The riverman next to Mr. Duncan opened his mouth and swore so picturesquely that, as he afterward told his chum, "I must've been plumb inspired for the occasion."

An' th' nex' day Willum Waldorf Asthor met him at th' races where he was puttin' down a bit iv money an' spoke to him, an' th' Prince iv Wales gave him wan in th' eye. He must've had something in his hand, f'r the pa-aper said he cut him. P'raps 'twas his scipter.
"Some one must've tipped that crook off. Anyway, I ain't goin' to wait no longer." "I wouldn't neither," agreed the uniformed member. "Say, who's yer friend yeh was talkin' tuh, 'while ago?" "Oh, a frien' of mine. Yeh didn't have no call to git excited then, Jim. G'night." And Hickey proceeded westward, a listless and preoccupied man by the vacant eye of him.
"There goes number one," said Tom to his unit mates as they watched from a vantage point near one of the service hangars. "He got a pretty shaky start there at the ramp," commented Astro. "He must've poured on so much power, he couldn't control the ship." "Heads up, fellas," announced Roger suddenly. "Here comes work."
I was in his store day before yestiddy an' they wasn't nobody come in for nothin' while I was there. He don't do no business to speak of." "How long was you there, Hi?" "From nine o'clock to noon." "What doin'?" "Nuthin'; jes' settin' round." "I seen him to-day goin' into the bank. Guess he must've gone to see Lockwood 'bout thet note." "Well, I don't envy him his call on Blinky Lockwood none."
