'I'm big, an sassy, an' full o' meanness, but what sand I've got ain't to be seen with a double-barrelled microscope. I'm as false as Judas; an' Ananias wouldn't be seen walkin' arm in arm with me in the place whar I'd oughter be to-night.
I'd a ginn a hundred dollars to have had that chap as a show at a fair tar and feathers war'nt half as nateral. You've seen a gall both larf and cry at the same time, hante you? well, I hope I may be shot if I could'nt have done the same.
And I see, with everything else under the sun, moon, and stars, a collection of all the kinds of flowers in the country, clear from Maine to California; and lots of the flowers preserved in their nateral colors. And if you think this is a easy job, I can tell you that you are very much mistaken.

But now I am old and am married, the water runs troo, Do that, and you have got sunthin' worth lookin' at, quite pictures-quee, as Sister Sall used to say. And because why? You have got sunthin' nateral.
I noted her face, the look in her eyes and the arnestness of her voice; and there is no doubt about the matter of the lovin'.
