The jovial mule was a roly poly, happy-go-lucky little piece of horse-flesh, taking every thing easily, from cudgeling to caressing; strolling along with a roguish twinkle of the eye, and, if the thing were possible, would have had his hands in his pockets, and whistled as he went.

Insensibly the boy who joined was led upward to a nobler and higher level. The motives which were strong enough to persuade a working lad to work on, over hours, may he partly understood by considering one of these Institutions the largest and the most popular the Polytechnic of Regent Street, called familiarly the Regent Street 'Poly, with its thirteen thousand members.
"Roland Poland," said the boy; "Roly Poly for short." "Mine's Walter Harris, but they call me Pee-wee. How did this island get here anyway?"

He thirsted for more like a desert traveler for water, but he dared not speak for fear of what he might betray. "I will tell you 'ow she save Michel Trudeau's life," said Poly, nothing loath, "I am the first to come down the river this summer or you would hear it before. Many times Michel is tell me this story. Never I heard such a story before. A woman to save a man! "Wa!
But now, though I could say much more, madam, I must have compassion upon Polystratus's memory, and cease. Poly. I am not so sure I am equal to it, Lycinus, as it is. You have made it long, and exceeded your time limit. However, I will do my best.
