"Go it, Bub! don't stop for your pa's sake; you know it all. Your pa is merely an old fogy.
He then descended carefully from the chair, and held the uncorked bottle under her nose, for a corroborative sniff. It was about half full of brandy. Satisfied, he knelt as before, now trying, however, to force Pa's teeth apart, and rubbing some of the brandy upon the parted lips. "This'll do it!" Alf cheerfully and reassuringly cried. "Half a tick. I'll get some water to wet his head again."
They kept the music box, and I have got to carry in coal to get money enough to buy my chum a new music box. Well, I shall have to go and get that vaseline or Pa's legs will suffer. Good day."

Rosalind tossed her head and flushed. "Thank you; I am tired," said she. "I prefer not to dance at present." "You are keeping Mr Ratman waiting, my dear." The colour died out of the girl's face as, with a little shiver, she laid the tips of her fingers on her partner's arm. "That's right," said that genial individual. "Do as you are told.
