When we went to say good night to Jevons we found Viola sitting on the arm of his chair with the little dish in her hand, feeding him with chocolate nougat. Her posture was one of supple contrition, and we heard her say: "Cheer up, Jimmy. It doesn't really matter what you do. Nobody would ever take you for more than four years old." Yes. Norah, the youngest, was the one who had grown up.
"With the compliments of the Pilgrim Father," was pencilled on the engraved card stuck under the string. There was layer after layer of chocolate creams and caramels, marshmallows and candied violets, burnt almonds and nougat, besides a score of other things specimens of the confectioner's art for which she knew no name.
Send ten pounds of your best chocolate nougat to Miss Myra Nell Warren at once. This is Blake speaking. Wait! I have enough on my conscience without adding another sin. Perhaps you'd better make it five pounds now and five pounds a week hereafter. Put it in your fanciest basket, with lots of blue ribbon, and label it 'Ransom!"
"I suppose Hope looks pretty small to you after the universities back east," Norma said to Billie, as they made the rounds of the buildings, after Amy had played hostess with Kit's help, and had brought down a goodly supply of fudge and peanut nougat. "Looks mighty good," returned Billie, heartily. "I think you can have loads more fun in a place like this than you can at the big schools.
There was a general gayety, but Amedee blushed without knowing why. Oh! no, certainly those three young ladies in their Savoy-cake skirts and nougat waists were not as pretty as little Maria in her simple brown frock. How she improved from day to day! It seemed to Amedee as if he never had seen her before until this minute.
As soon as we had got through with the necessary throat-cutting and swabbing-up all hands set to work to discover treasure; and soon the deck shone bravely with ingots and Mexican dollars and church plate. There were ropes of pearls, too, and big stacks of nougat; and rubies, and gold watches, and Turkish Delight in tubs. But I left these trifles to my crew, and continued the search alone.
Charles Street, and bring your ransom. At the lower left-hand corner, in microscopic characters, was written: "I love chocolate nougat best." Norvin laughed as he re-read this sanguinary epistle, for he had to admit that it had given him a slight start. Being a man of action, he walked to the telephone and called a number which had long since become familiar. "Is this the Creole Candy Kitchen?
Norvin is it really nougat?" "It is, the most unhealthy, the most indigestible " "You duck! You may hold my gory hand for Wait!" Blake heard a faint shriek. "Don't ring off. Something terrible " Then the wire was dead. "Hello! Hello!" he called. "What's wrong, Myra Nell?" He rattled the receiver violently, and getting no response, applied to Central.
A good nougat will answer instead of the honey. Take half a pint of rich cream and mix with it a small glassful of Madeira wine or of good brandy. Pick over some fine cherries and strawberries, stoning the cherries, and taking out the little center piece of each strawberry that is attached to the stalk. To make a nice sweet in a few minutes can be easily managed if you follow this recipe.
Then she hung her cloak on her back, and led her to the door, which she fastened with a wooden bar. As soon as we were alone she began to laugh and caper like a lunatic, singing out, 'You are my rom, I'm your romi. * Sugared yolks of eggs. A sort of nougat.
