In addition to these out-and-out expenditures, there were dozens of little leaks in all the departments of the business, all busily draining away not only possible profits, but the working capital, and, finally, the limit of the concern's credit.
"I know that," said the missionary, wincing as if he had received a deep wound, "but she is not in your power now." "More's the pity; she would have been safer with me than with my first mate, who is the greatest villain afloat on the high seas. He does not like our milk-and-water style of robbing. He is an out-and-out pirate in heart, and has long desired to cut my throat.
Beaten out-and-out by Fair Phyllida! a beast that took them all by surprise nothing to look at but causing, I fancy, a good deal of distress. They say the Duncombes will be done for. I only wish Frank was clear; but that unhappy engagement has thrown him in with Sir Harry's set, and he was with them all day hardly spoke to me.
That picture of a stern handsome face, with flags and cannon and olive-branch the arms of the republic in its heavy gold frame, was one of the principal ornaments of the room, and my father was proud of it, since he was, for reasons to be stated by and by, a great admirer of Rosas, an out-and-out Rosista, as the loyal ones were called.
The kingdom of heaven is just as close to you and to me; the greatest King of all that's Jesus is inviting boys and men to come in to the feast of usefulness and happiness and joy of an out-and-out Christian life, a feast which He has Himself prepared, and some are turning their backs upon His call, unwilling to take the King's own word for it that they will have the time of their lives, which will grow sweeter and finer and better as the days go by, and never, never end!
But Gifford had not much to tell; it was only his vague distrust of the man, which it was difficult to put into words. "A good out-and-out sinner one can stand," he ended; "but all I saw of this Forsythe at the club and about town only made me set him down as a small man, a a puppy, as I said. And I thought I'd talk to you about it, because, when you write to Lois, you might just hint, you know."
The father, on the other hand, was equally typical of his class and generation. This was how he talked to me over his port: "I tell you what it is, you know, Mordan: you're a regular firebrand, you know; by Jove, you are; an out-and-out Socialistic Radical: that's what you are. By gad, sir, I don't mince my words.
In Petrograd and Moscow there was going on, it appeared, a struggle between the pro-ally Socialists and the Internationalists, the true, out-and-out, middle-of-the-road, thick-and-thin proletarians. The former were called Mensheviki, the latter were called Bolsheviki, and, of course, Jimmie was all for the latter.
But for all that, Chester could not have felt or looked more guilty if he had been telling an out-and-out falsehood at every breath. "Humph!" said Clemantiny in a dissatisfied tone. "What on earth do you suppose a midget like you can do in the harvest field? And we don't want any more help, anyway. We've got enough." Chester grew sick with disappointment. But at this moment Miss Salome spoke up.
Bessie said, waiting with her comrade at the gate. "Yes, so far as school goes, except that I shall always have a kindness for the old place and the old doctor. It was a grand thing, my winning that scholarship, Bessie." "And now you will have your heart's desire you will go to Oxford." "Yes; Moxon is an Oxford man, and the old doctor says out-and-out the best classic of his acquaintance.
