Brill Healy leaned forward, gathered the eyes of those present, and lowered his voice to a whisper. "Boys, this thing has got to stop. I've sent for Bucky O'Connor. If anybody can run the coyotes to earth he can. Anyhow, that's the reputation he's got." Yeager nodded. "Good for you, Brill. He's ce'tainly got an A-one rep. as a cattle detective, and likewise as a man hunter. When is he coming?"
A waiter took his box up five flights of stairs, and Philip was shown into a tiny room, fusty from unopened windows, the greater part of which was taken up by a large wooden bed with a canopy over it of red rep; there were heavy curtains on the windows of the same dingy material; the chest of drawers served also as a washing-stand; and there was a massive wardrobe of the style which is connected with the good King Louis Philippe.
And when you think of the breed of cats he is you'll see yourself that the Black Rim is setting on a volcano. "Tom Lorrigan has got more men working for him than any outfit in that country. He runs his own round-up and won't have a rep that's a representative from any other outfit in his camp. His own men haze outside stock off his range. He's getting rich.
"I never rode him but once myself, but I worked right with a Lazy 6 rep that had him in his string, down at the U up-and-down, two years ago. I know the hoss, all right; but I did lie when I told Happy I knowed him from a colt. I spread it on a little bit thick, there." He smiled engagingly down at Chip. "And he's a bad one, is he?"
But although this was the case, he never spoke against the practice to the other boys, even when he lost places by it. "I say, Williams," said Duncan, one morning as they strolled into the school-yard, "do you know your Rep.?" "No," said Eric, "not very well; I haven't given more than ten minutes to it." "Oh, well, never mind it now; come and have a game at racquets?
VESTRA AETATE: = eis qui sunt vestra aetate. Cf. n. on 26 senectus. SERMONIS ... SUSTULIT: notice the indicatives auxit, sustulit, the relative clauses being attributive, though they might fairly have been expected here to be causal. In this passage Cic. imitates Plato, Rep. 328 D. BELLUM INDICERE: common in the metaphorical sense; e.g.
Her mother was stolen by that disgusting old Turk " "Hold on a bit. Fifteen years ago Tewfick could hardly have been thirty and he has the rep of a Don Juan. It may have been a love affair or it may have been plunder.... The girl remembers her?" "Very little. She was so young when her mother died. She said that the father was so in love that he never married again."
For choice, one would say silk or velvet for formal rooms; velvets, corduroys or chintz for living-rooms; leather and corduroy with rep hangings for a man's study or smoking-room; thin silks and chintz for bedrooms; chintz for nurseries, breakfast-rooms and porches. If the permanent upholstery is of chintz, then at once your room becomes informal.
The Rep Rho Betas will entertain him days and he'll stay at the Eta Pie House nights. I'm putting the Eta Bites on now. You've got to get him off this train before we get to the station and keep him busy while I arrange the program. Just give me an hour before you get him there. That's all I ask."
Each rep entered the number and kind of his own brand so reported to the former tally taken of the herd.
