And, patting Gypsy's glossy neck, she headed her mount directly toward the sidewalk and clattered straight into Pieker's store. Arthur had barely time to jump out of the way. "Holy cats!" he again invoked fervently. Then: "Head her out! She's slobbering over that bucket of candy!"

"Oh, do leave him alone," she cried, patting Roy's scorned shoulder soothingly. "I, for one, would forgive him for anything he said or did just now without even being asked." Roy gave her a grateful glance and Allen whispered close in her ear. "You can be kind to every one but the one who loves you, Betty. Is that it?" His voice was so low that no one but Betty could hear.

Bart then, stripping off the saddle and handing it to a boy to be carried back to the tavern, again went to the head of the pony, and, after patting her on her neck, repeated certain words in her ear, which seemed to produce the instant effect of arousing her spirit, and making her restless and impatient for a start.

You will be so extremely sensitive on the point of honor that no one will dare to accuse you of past shortcomings if in the process of making your way you should happen to smirch it now and again, which I myself should never advise," he added, patting Lucien's hand.

But she instantly checked herself, and said: "I will try not to think of it; for if I do, I shall spoil my voice; and Papa Balbino would be dreadfully mortified if I failed, after he had taken so much pains to have me brought out." "That is right, darling," rejoined Madame, patting her on the shoulder. "I will go away, and leave you to rehearse."

"I don't want advantages," said Penelope, hardly above a whisper, and for want of a better resting-place she dropped her head on her uncle's shoulder and burst into tears. "There there there " cried Mr. Blight, patting her clumsily on the back.

That's why Nita bought the box, I suppose, because it played her namesake song " "Maybe one of her beaus gave it to her," Tracey suggested lightly, patting his wife's trembling shoulder. "Anyway, Dundee, the thing ran on and on, until it ran down, I suppose.
