I used to say "If the rich wasn't getting richer and the poor poorer, I'd be president of a bank." Did you ever hear that line of conversation? It generally comes from somebody who rattles where he is. I am so glad now that I did not get to be president of the bank. They are glad, too! I would have rattled down in about fifteen minutes, down to the peanut row, for I was only a peanut.
Thus having rebuked her too zealous champion Glory explained to Miss Bonnicastle that "they couldn't be more'n twenty-five good bags left. They belongs to Antonio Salvatore, the peanut man. I was goin' to buy needles an' thread with part, needin' needles most, but no matter. Better luck next time. Do you really want a bag, lady?"
Jimmie was still clinging to his back, and asking him not to run so fast, but the pony was so frightened he didn't listen to the duck-boy. Then, just as he was going to run into a hot peanut wagon, and maybe toss Jimmie off into the red-hot roaster, all at once Uncle Wiggily, on Munchie's back, galloped up alongside of the runaway pony.
Why, do you know," he went on, speaking in rather a funny voice on account of his trunk being broken off, "he never gave me a single peanut all the while I was with him!" "No! Really? Was he as unkind as that?" asked the broken Jack in the Box. "But that wasn't the worst," continued the Elephant. "After the boy had dropped some bread and jam on me, he thought he'd wash me off in the bath room.
"I'll have one next week, if mamma will let me," for you see he found he liked parties better than he thought he would. Well, they played some more games, including one called hide the peanut, and then it was time to go home; and now comes the queer part of it.
Thash where you fooled yerself!" "What do you mean?" Hawkeye bridled virtuously for the benefit of the drummer and the old gentleman with the spectacles. And then the other began to laugh immoderately. "Same ol' quarter," said he. "Same hic! ol' quarter back again. Great system peanut boy conductor hic! Pass it off on one other passes it off on some one else.
It was found that the acids from pure olive oil melt between 261/2 and 281/2 deg. The melting point of the fatty acids in the oils used to adulterate olive oil differs considerably from this. The melting and solidifying points of the acids in cotton seed, sesame, and peanut oils lie considerably higher, those of sunflower, rape, and castor oils decidedly lower than those of olive oil.
In East Aurora there used to be a good friend of mine who had a peanut-stand at the station. The business flourished and some one advised my friend that he should put in popcorn as a sideline. He did so, and got nervous prostration. You see, he was a peanut man, and when he got outside of his specialty he was lost. One realizes the herculean task of dying poor which confronts Mr.
"The field will be good and dry to-night, fellows," said Roger, "and we ought to get in some much-needed practice for that game with Barville. I want every fellow to come out, sure." "Ho!" gurgled Chub Tuttle, cracking a peanut and dexterously nipping the double kernel into his mouth. "We'll be there, though I don't believe we need much practice to beat that Barville bunch.
Well, say, I I guess it's time I got on me way. S' long!" "No you don't, my Spider; you're coming home with me." "What me? Not much I ain't no, sir! I ain't no giddy gink t' go dinin' with millionaires in open-faced clo'es not me!" "But you're coming to have dinner with that same peanut man who learned to respect you because you were a real, white man, Spider Connolly.
