"But what does get me is why the five thousand Waldstricker's put up, ain't been bait to catch Bishop before this," he said ruminatively. "Well, it hain't, that's evident," growled Burnett, setting his teeth. As a rabbit lifts its head, frightened at unusual sights and sounds, so Jake Brewer lifted a startled face as Howard Burnett pulled up his horse suddenly at the squatter's side.
I shall have to answer Philippa's letter, and I'll answer it in such a way that if she is as clever a little woman as I think she is, she'll get a hint. Of course," he went on ruminatively, "it is rather a misfortune that the Princess Ollaneff and her sister are such jolly good-looking women. Makes it look a little fishy, doesn't it?
"I expect you'll be bored to death. Perhaps you'd rather not come?" Gillian's quiet brown eyes smiled at her reassuringly. "'Where thou goest " she quoted. "Of course I want to come. I've never been to Devonshire. And I know Coppertop will adore the pigs and cows " "And cream," put in Coppertop ruminatively. "Tell me about the place," said Gillian. "How did you hear of it?"
Sell your house and clear out. You'll find it healthy." He went to the door. "So far as I can see," he observed, ruminatively, "you haven't brought any of that Moliterno crowd you used to work with over to this side with you." "I haven't seen Moliterno for two years," said Corliss, sharply. "Well, I've said my say." Pryor gave him a last word as he went out. "You keep away from that little girl."
"An electric locomotive that can make two miles a minute over a properly ballasted roadbed might not be an impossibility," said Mr. Barton Swift ruminatively. "It is one of those things that are coming," and he flashed his son, Tom Swift, a knowing smile.
Over the hill they went, leaving Cap'n Orrin's mild-eyed cows gazing after them ruminatively as they crept under the fence which separated the pasture from the wild bottom land at the foot of the hill. On the other side arose the ridge along which were ranged cottages looking both coveward and seaward.
We tried them on both ways and got no light from the experience, and then laid them on the bed and looked at them ruminatively, all the while the clock moving toward eight and no decision reached. Finally, we concluded that if there was as little difference between back and front as that, it couldn't matter much.
When Mackenzie began to eat, Reid drew back from the fire to make another cigarette. "But will it pay a man," he said ruminatively, as if turning again a subject long discussed with himself, "to put in three years at this just to get out of work all the rest of his life? That's all it comes to, even if I can keep the old man's money from sifting through my hands like dry sand on a windy day.
"I took a million out of it, next to Carmack's Discovery an' went busted afterward, didn't I?" Alan nodded without speaking. "But that wasn't a circumstance to Gold Run Creek, over the Divide," Stampede continued ruminatively. "Ain't forgot old Aleck McDonald, the Scotchman, have you, Alan?
"I'll ride along with you," Reid offered; "I can't do him any good by going down to see him. Anybody gone for a doctor?" "Rabbit's the only doctor. I suppose she can do him as much good as anybody he'll die, anyhow." "He's not cut out for a sheepman," said Reid, ruminatively, shaking his head in depreciation.
