Then, too, there are foreign governments." He paused. Though he said nothing, I felt that there was no doubt what he hinted at. At least one government occurred to me which would like the plans above all others. "Once some plans of a submarine were stolen, I recall," ruminated Kennedy. "But that theft, I am satisfied, was committed in behalf of a rival company."

Most of the buildings of the Academy looked nearly old enough to have been also deposited there by the primeval glaciers, but they were huge and comfortable, and so many colonies of boys had romped and ruminated there, and so much laughter and so much lore had soaked into the old walls, that they were pleasanter than any newer and more gorgeous architecture could possibly be.

"And so, that much is accomplished," ruminated Hiram, as he drove home. "But I'm not sure whether hostilities are finished, or have just begun." "The old Atterson place" as it was called in the neighborhood, began to take on a brisk appearance these days.

Francois's eyes gleamed in a happy anticipation of more Cognac and many easily earned francs. "Now, Madame Berthe, I think I have the key of the enigma! I see a year's assured comfort before me, for I can play the part of the Saxon troops at Leipzig," the schemer joyously ruminated.

"H'm," ruminated Welton. "Chinless, eh? I wondered why he wore long white whiskers." As he walked up the street toward the hotel, where he would spend the night before undertaking the long drive back, somebody hailed him. He looked around to see a pair of beautiful driving horses, shying playfully against each other, coming to a stop at the curb.

He moved into obscure quarters and fought the hard fight. It was years before he would speak of these experiences. In fact, he rarely ruminated on the past in the confidences of either conversation or correspondence. Memory troubled him little and by the universal quotation it withheld its pleasures.

He ruminated still further; until he found he was standing on one foot and rubbing the back of his head, just like any stage booby. "Oh, damn!" he cried, putting his raised foot firmly on the ground and bringing his wandering fist down hard into the open palm of his other hand. "Here, here!" protested Jenny, pretending to be scandalised. "That's not the sort of language to use before Pa!

It was the experiment of Charles Macklin, an eighteenth century actor of undoubted talent and just as undoubted conceit and eccentricity. He had reached rather more than the midway of his long life he was certainly ninety-seven when he died and may have been a hundred when he resolved to leave the stage and carry out an idea over which he had long ruminated.

He ruminated a little, stepped forward, and presently returned with a rather formidable-looking iron bar he had evidently noticed some time before; and coolly remarked as he began to drag away the hatch-covers from before the companion: "I am going down below to give those fellows their quietus.

She parked her little blue car directly across the street from the Rye House and began the business of shopping. "What you reckon that Judy gal is up to now?" queried Judge Middleton. "I betcher she's goin' in the butcher shop." "I betcher she ain't," said Pete Barnes for the sake of argument. "I betcher she's going in the Emporium to buy herself a blue dress." "Maybe," ruminated Major Fitch.
