Chaffing each other good naturedly, they tramped along, and when they saw the size of the antlers and body of the second buck they forgot all rivalry. "He's a beauty!" cried Horace. "I'm glad it wasn't he that made a jump for me. His prongs stick out a yard." Though this was an exaggeration, the branches of the antlers were, indeed, surprisingly long.
One of them, a large, strapping fellow, perhaps thirty years of age, cast his eye around the circle of faces. "Let's get another one," he shouted. There was a chorus of assent from the others and all six set to looking about for a victim who would not prove too willing. As Hal said to Chester, apparently there was no fun tossing a man who took it good naturedly.
"Hello, Tim," said his captor, good naturedly, "going to join the circus?" Little Tim grinned, sheepishly. "Guess not, Jack," he replied. "Say, wouldn't you like to see that tiger eat up a keeper?" Jack Harvey laughed, setting Tim on his feet again. "I'll bet that tiger isn't as great a man-eater as old Witham," he said.

"Another minute would have done," said Fielding to his friend, as they sat over the fire after supper. "A half a minute would have been just as good," said Knight. "I got Barry by the hair under water. He was at his last kick, you bet! And that rat," he added, smiling good naturedly at Harry, "was dragging him down for the last time."

He felt the child's wrist again.
We went round to a stable-yard, and I got into a four- wheeled chaise. His wife sat with him in front, and a biggish boy sat with me behind.
