This is the first time he has been out, except last Sunday to Church, and a turn or two round the garden with grandmamma."
"They ought to reward us for our trouble, papa, don't you think?" suggested Doreen. "There! They've begun to reward themselves," said Queenie, as a stone came through one of the windows. Mr. Wedmore was furious. He saw the mistake he had made, but he would not own it.
Do you no harm after what you've just been through." He turned to the girl, who had followed Brent into the room and, picking up her needlework, had seated herself near the master of the house.

He showed it by his way of beginning. Said he: "I've got to hand you a line of rough talk, Queenie. I took on this jag for your especial benefit," said he.

"How can you expect to get on?" cried he, exasperated.
QUEENIE FOSTER should return the duplicate copy and ask for the right one, and if enclosing stamps, as the surest way of getting it, she can retain the duplicate.

"And now that we've got Ida May to harness up Queenie for us and look after the house while we're gone, and you feel so much spryer yourself, Ira, I don't see why we can't visit our folks a little," Prudence said.
"Not good for Missy Queenie to cry too much. Them say, kind lady, be comforted."

Gertrude gave a tea party and invited a great many famous tea party types, and ourselves." "Was Aunt Beulah there?" "I said all your aunts. Beulah was there, like the famous Queenie, with her hair in a braid." "Not really." "Pretty nearly. She's gone in for dress reform now, you know, a kind of middy blouse made out of a striped portière with a kilted skirt of the same material and a Scotch cap.
"I hope you'll favour me with another talk, sir always pleased to see a London gentleman, I'm sure we're behind, perhaps, in these parts, Mr. Brent, but honest and hearty, sir, honest and hearty. Queenie, my love, you'll open the door for the young gentleman?" The girl took Brent into the gloomy hall.
