"What is 'primal cause, grandfather?" asked Betty. "The thing that began it all," said grandfather, regarding her quizzically. "I don't agree with your conclusion," said Bertrand, pausing to put sirup on Jamie's cakes, after repeated demands therefor. "If the cause be evil, it follows that to annihilate the cause wipe it out of existence must be righteous."

"If you killed one," Weary told him glumly, "you might as well make a clean sweep and take in the whole bunch." "Well, I won't charge nothin' extra fer that, either," Bud assured him generously. "I'm willin' to throw in the other three and the dawgs, too, by cripes!" He goggled the Happy Family quizzically. "Nobody can't say there's anything small about me.

He thrust his head on one side quizzically, and advanced with mincing, playful steps. He rubbed his body gently against the box till it shook and shook again. Leclere teetered carefully to maintain his equilibrium. "Batard," he said calmly, "look out. Ah keel you." Batard snarled at the word and shook the box with greater force.

"I would rather the quarrel were peacefully settled," said I, gravely. "For my part, I want no distinction that is to come out of strife and misery." He regarded me quizzically. "You are grown an hundred years old since I pulled you out of the sea," says he. "But we shall have to fight for our liberties. Here is a glass to the prospect!" "And so you are now an American?" I said curiously.

"There is no one to bother us up here in the woods. Do you think there is any need of it?" he asked quizzically. "I should think there was," declared Pepper, "if Monkey Rae is about." "I hadn't thought of that," admitted the colonel. "Giving me some of my own advice, aren't you? Always be prepared. I don't know but what I had better follow it."

Nicholson quizzically, "And has anything untoward happened to our Graeco-Moslem friend?" "Perhaps Inspector Bristol can tell," replied the curator. The straight, military figure of the well-known Scotland Yard man was conspicuous among the group of distinguished and mostly round-shouldered scholars. "Sorry, gentlemen," he said, smiling, "but Mr. Acepulos has vanished from his tobacco shop in Soho.

"But if you should happen by any chance to come across one, I wouldn't mind being along." "Righto," said Dick emphatically. "Same here," echoed Tom. "Hopeless cases," said Mr. Melton quizzically, shaking his head. "I suppose there's no use arguing with you. I was that way once myself, but I've learned now to keep out of trouble as much as I can."

I hope you'll forgive me." "You are a philosopher, I see," she said with a smile. "I am sorry to annoy you." "Y you don't, I think. You seem to be a sensible sort of a person." She smiled again most cheerfully.

She did not in fact have long to wait, for after they were all seated at dinner Mr. Sinclair looked quizzically into his daughter's face. "I know you are puzzling your brain why I came home so early," he began. "Now, are you not?" "I certainly am," Lois laughingly replied. "Margaret and I have been having all kinds of surmises." "I've done a great stroke of business to-day," Mr.

"Thought so," the man in brown rambled blithely on, "and glad to see you again. Glad of a chance to speak to you! I wanted most mightily to ask you a few pertinent questions last night, but it hardly seemed a fitting occasion."
