When the pipes on board trailed away with a hiss of wind and a choking, gurgling noise into silence the little dancing girl began to sing in a deep, musical voice the voice of one who has lived out-of-doors in tents "Itta long way Tipple-airy! Long way to go! Long way Tipple-airy! Sweetie girl I know!..." She sang in broken English, and danced to the tune, which she knew perfectly.
"I know," she went on to herself, "he'd rather be a common laborer in the woods than railroad manager in the office. He loves his out-of-doors." "Helen!" called a voice from below, "if you're through up there, I wish you'd come down and help me carry this rug out." The girl's eyes cleared with a snap. "So do I!" she cried defiantly, "so do I love out-of-doors!
"All this while there was plenty of indoor work going on; and the queen's body-guard, the babies' nurses, the attendants on the princes and princesses, the waiters and tenders, the sweepers and cleaners all were as busy as you please. It was a pretty sight to see the nurses bring the babies out-of-doors for a sun-bath.
What Hortense thought was that it would be a very nice and handy weapon to hunt the cat with at night, but she couldn't tell Grandfather that; so she said nothing. "It's a nice afternoon," said Grandfather, "and little girls should be out-of-doors. Run out and see the barn and the orchard." Hortense did as she was told, wandering about the yard, exploring the loft of the barn, and the orchard.
At each entrance of Rock Park, where we live, there is a small Gothic structure of stone, each inhabited by a policeman and his family; very small dwellings indeed, with the main apartment opening directly out-of-doors; and when the door is open, one can see the household fire, the good wife at work, perhaps the table set, and a throng of children clustering round, and generally overflowing the threshold.
"I don't believe you're as easy as you make out. The trees are thick ahead yet." "It's you, saying things like that, makes me moody," he returned sulkily. Tressa rose to find something in her room, and her father turned back to the out-of-doors with an impatient exclamation. In reality he was no more easy about things than Adrian.
His complexion deepened in tone to a permanent pink. This, in contrast with the deep clear blue of his eyes, gave him a kind of out-of-doors comeliness. But Frank Merrill was the surprise of them all.
Thus extended a person might have passed within a few yards and never noticed them, unless he had an out-of-doors eye; for the whiter fur of the belly as they lay aside was barely distinguishable from the hoar frost.
Then Patterson sent a letter to President Dickinson, accusing the farmers of sedition, and hinting that extreme measures were necessary. Having thus, as he thought, prepared the way, he attacked the settlement, turned some five hundred people out-of-doors, and burned their houses to the ground.
Genesis was an out-of-doors man and seldom made much of a toilet; his overalls in particular betraying at important points a lack of the anxiety he should have felt, since only Genesis himself, instead of a supplementary fabric, was directly underneath them.
