I have been living on it for three months and I have gained a pound a day. Permit me to express the conviction that you are real benefactors to the human race.

"Is it possible that somewhere in this world there is a food which will add a pound a day?"
Jean indicated the forest beyond the village with a wide sweep of his arm. "Once, twice, after, I pass by him w'en I go an' come from Canada." "Then you do know something about it? I'm mighty glad to hear that. But tell me about Oakdale and how you happened to pop up there just when we needed you most. Grace wrote me that she had tried to find you, but that you'd gone away."
The overjoyed Oakdale crowd charged onto the diamond and surrounded the winners as they were giving Wyndham a cheer. Springer was swept off his feet and caught up on the shoulders of the crowd, who bellowed his name again and again. Looking downward, he saw that his right leg rested on the shoulder of Rodney Grant, who was cheering madly.

I'm betting that he makes the Oakdale batters look like monkeys." "You haven't had very good lul-luck betting, have you?" "Might have done better," admitted Herbert, shrugging. "I'll even it all up next Saturday, though, if these pikers around here have sand enough to give me another show." "Perhaps you will, and, then again, perhaps " "I'll bet you five or ten, even money, that Wyndham wins."
She could not bear to allow the holidays to pass without seeing her friends, so she and the Southards had taken the midnight train for Oakdale, determined to spend at least one day there. That evening a contented, happy company gathered at the Nesbits, as Miriam's and David's guests, at a dinner given in honor of the unexpected arrivals.
She seems awfully sorry for it now." "Oh, girls," cried Nora suddenly. "I have a half a dollar." "Really?" said Jessica. "I didn't suppose there was that much money in Oakdale." "My sister gave it to me this morning," Nora went on, ignoring Jessica's remark. "I am supposed to buy a new collar with it, but if you are thirsty " "I am simply perishing with thirst," murmured Grace.
