First comes this fossil thoroughbred who outplays Simmons, and now comes this old nut-cracker with his white tow-hair sticking out in two straight mops, who is going to play the flute! What in thunder is coming next? Pretty soon one of them will be pulling rabbits out of somebody's ears, or rubbing gold watches into canary birds."
An ugly, contraband knave, smuggled into the world by some lewd prank of the devil with his malicious little pig's eyes, foxy hair, and nut-cracker chin, just as if Nature, enraged at such a bungled piece of goods, had seized the ugly monster by it, and flung him aside. No! rather than throw away my daughter on a vagabond like him, she may God forgive me!
The little nut-cracker was frightened at seeing so many eyes peeping in upon him from every crevice and opening in his box. He looked much brighter and better than he did when he was put into the box, and Caleb thought he would get entirely well. "O, I wish I had him," said Dwight. "I am going to keep him in a cage," said Caleb. "I wish he was mine," said Dwight.
Sometimes it worked like a nut-cracker, sometimes like a pair of forceps, and sometimes oh, you can think of a dozen tools that beak of Corbie's was like. He was as well off as if he had a whole carpenter's chest with him all the time.
Old Bannister opened the nut-cracker mouth that always had the appearance of crushing something. His pale eyes glowed for an instant. "Did she?" he said. "She seemed very ah determined." "Did she!"

His nut-cracker face almost allowed itself a pleased expression but not quite. Jennie wondered if she really saw those things. Mutton pies! Scones! Scotch short bread!
We went to Wimbledon, where Lady Spencer was very attentive and courteous: she is, I may say, the cleverest person I have seen since I came to England. At parting she "GOD blessed" me. We met there Lady Jones, widow of Sir William thin, dried, tall old lady, nut-cracker chin, penetrating, benevolent, often smiling, black eyes; and her nephew, young Mr. This moment Mrs.
"If the journals were sealed when you received them, you are the only one who could have opened them." Rousselet straightened himself up to his full height, and, giving to his nut-cracker face the most dignified look possible, he said in a solemn tone: "With due deference to you, Madame, Leonard Rousselet is well known.
But no she would be before your time, of course." "There was an old Mary Carey; she married a Spencer. She was pointed out to me last time I was at home the nut-cracker type, nose and chin together " "Goodness! Keep that dark too, for mercy's sake! She is his ideal woman. It is for her sake he wants you to talk Wellwood with.
In solemn silence the two regarded the little brown woman so unconscious of their gaze. By the piteous wizened face screwed up in the sunlight, by the faded hair, nut-cracker jaws, and hollow eyes they utterly condemned Mrs. Tuttle, who, blue feathers floating, was also absorbed in watching the stream of embarking excursionists.
