Please take him up to your cottage and take GOOD care of him, and give Pepper the very best feed he ever had. Then turn him out in the pasture with Salt. "We will be back again in an hour to talk horse just as fast as we can, and DON'T FORGET WHAT I TOLD YOU ABOUT PEPPER'S POINTS." "I won't, Miss Peggy, but I ain't got to open more'n HALF an eye no how."
"Mamsie must have the first one," said Joel, picking out the biggest and best, with the largest currant eyes, to force it between Mrs. Pepper's pale lips, "then Polly next." "Oh, no, Joe," said Polly, "I'm not company. Give one to Grandma and to Mrs. Beebe first." "Oh, you pretty creature you!" exclaimed Grandma. "So you want me to have a cake?" as Joel turned to her with one in his hand.
Graham came hotly to Pepper's rescue. "He's not a mongrel he's better'n any old Airedale! He's got more sense in his tail than Aunt Maria's got in her whole body! If he goes I'll I'll go, too!" "Children," protested Mrs. Westley, giving way to the laughter that had been consuming her from the first moment of Aunt Maria's arrival. "Let's all feel grateful to Pepper.
"It is a little difficult," the colonel answered, "but there is a trace here and there," pointing out slight indentations on the ground. "It is quite hard here and they didn't leave much impression." "Here it is again!" cried Rand a little later, when they came to a spot of soft earth. "Here is Pepper's track. I think I would know it anywhere now."
Bessie's face flushed painfully: "I confess that dear Miss Pepper's person is not so beautiful as her nature, but, Winnie, it is the cause of doing good and trying to be good that draws us together so closely; and of course I do not love her as I love you, my dear, precious first friend."
The acrobatic youth was plainly excited, and his chums could not help but notice it. "What are you going to follow them for, Andy?" asked Jack. "I want to see that man." "Do you know him?" "I don't know yet. I want to find out." "If we follow them Ritter will think it mighty queer," was Pepper's comment. "I don't care I want to get a good look at that man," answered Andy, doggedly.
"How is it wrong?" asked Adela, rolling over, and taking the handkerchief away from one eye enough to see Polly Pepper's face. "I can cry, I guess, if I want to, without asking anybody." "Oh, no, you can't," said Polly, decidedly. "I mean no one can." "Why not, pray tell?" said Adela, sniffing very hard. "My eyes are my own, and I shall cry, too, whenever I want to."
I have also some recollection of seeing Pepper's muzzle, appearing over the Pit edge, after what seemed an indefinite period of time. Then, all grew suddenly dark. I suppose I must have swooned; for, the next thing I remember, I opened my eyes, and all was dusk. I was lying on my back, with one leg doubled under the other, and Pepper was licking my ears.
All he desires in a wife if he desires one is an inanimate and accommodating looking-glass, in whom he may see what he conceives to be his own image daily. James, you may take the mare home. I'm going to drive with Mr. Vane." She stroked Pepper's nose while Austen undid the hitch-rope from around his neck.
"That won't bring her," said Polly; trying to keep still; "I'll try to wait." "Here she is now!" cried Joel, peeping out of the window; "oh! goody!" "Well," Mrs. Pepper's tone was unusually blithe as she stepped into the kitchen "you've had a nice time, I suppose what in the world!" and she stopped at the bedroom door.
