"Oh, that," Fenton said, putting his hand to the blue and gold tie at his throat. "I'm trying to furbish up my old body and decrepit heart against my nuptials, so I invested fifty cents in this tie."
"A little more a little more," said she, petulantly touching his hand with the forefinger, to make him incline the cup more generously and yieldingly.

"Well, mother, so we are paupers to this extent at least, that we can't afford to take a run to Switzerland, though ordered to do so for your health, because we lack funds." Lewis said this half petulantly, for he had been a "spoilt child," and might probably have been by that time a ruined young man, but for the mercy of his Creator, who had blessed him with an amiable disposition.
