Porne. "Now speaking of palates, let us all keep silent and taste this soup." They did keep silent in supreme contentment while the soup lasted. Mrs. Ree laid down her spoon with the air of one roused from a lovely dream. "Why why it's like Paris," she said in an awed tone. "Isn't it?" Mr. Porne agreed, "and not twice alike in a month, I think."
Here's one, 'Extra meals to regular patrons 25 cents. And no more trouble to order than to tell a maid." Mrs. Ree had a lively sense of paltering with Satan as she sat down to the Porne's dinner table. She had seen the delivery wagon drive to the door, had heard the man deposit something heavy on the back porch, and was now confronted by a butler's tray at Mrs.
Ree, who hovered, fascinated, over the dangerous topic, "but we do in comfort, I can tell you. You see I had two girls, paid them $12 a week; now I keep just the one, for $6. That made $28 a week. Now I pay for three meals a day, delivered, for three of us, $15 a week with the nurse's wages, $21. Then I pay a laundress one day, $2, and her two meals, $.50, making $23.50.
Let me see a paper on we might say 'On the True Nature of Domestic Industry. How does that strike you, Mrs. Ree?" "Admirable!" said Mrs. Ree. "So strong! so succinct." "That certainly covers the subject," said Mrs. Porne. "Why don't you ask her?" "We will. We have come for that purpose. But we felt it right to ask you about it first," said Mrs. Dankshire.
I never was a good carver, so it was no pleasure to me to show off; and to tell you the truth, when I come to the table, I like to eat not saw wood." And Mr. Porne ate with every appearance of satisfaction. "We never get roast beef like this I'm sure," Mrs. Ree admitted, "we can't get it small enough for our family." "And a little roast is always spoiled in the cooking.
It used to cost me as muckle siller for the sin o' getting fu', no aboon three or four times in the year, as would hae kept ony honest man blithe and ree frae New'erday to Hogmanæ; but our worthy hostess has found to her profit that I'm now ane of her best customers. What say ye, Lucky?"
The shores of all the inland lakes were favourite sites for Raths and Churches, and the beautiful country around Lough Erne shared the fiery ordeal which blazed on Lough Ree and Lough Neagh.
Ree; her high narrow forehead fairly creped with little wrinkles: "She might say something, you know, that they might take advantage of!" "Nonsense, my dear!" replied Mrs. Dankshire. She was very fond of Mrs. Ree, but had small respect for her judgment. "What could she say? Look at what she does! And how beautifully how perfectly she does it! I would wager now may I try an experiment Mrs.
Simpson, his eyes wandering like a trapped rat, saw, and called, through teeth that chattered in an ague of fear, "Ree—memm—her thth—there’s la—dies p—present! For Gawd’s sake, remember t—there’s ladies p—present!" The pale man looked towards the kitchen, and, seeing the woman, he gave Simpson a look in which there was only contempt. "You’ve hid behind the law once, and this time it’s petticoats.
The Sioux young men were courting the Ree girls, and the Ree braves were courting our girls, while the old people bartered their produce. All day the river was alive with canoes and its banks rang with the laughter of the youths and maidens.
