That hair of hers never could be gray, you know, it's too self-opinionated in its sandiness. Now come along, Rorie, do.
To be sure, very few of the deserts of real life possess that absolute flatness, sandiness and sameness, which characterises the familiar desert of the poet and of the annual exhibitions a desert all level yellow expanse, most bilious in its colouring, and relieved by but four allowable academy properties, a palm-tree, a camel, a sphinx, and a pyramid.
Periodicals that appear at longer intervals are in all reason more or less excepted from this objection; but by the daily and weekly majority, the labours of a life-time are cursorily glanced at, hastily judged from some isolated passage, summarily found laudable or guilty; and this weak opinion, strongly enough expressed as some compensation in solid superstructure for the sandiness of its foundations, is circulated by thousands over all corners of the habitable world.
Her breast was flat, and her body bent through daily housework and too little care of herself, too little personal pride. Sally resembled her mother. She too was small and thin.

Our domestic admirers are not always watching us. Dorothy was looking out of the window. "It is not a bad little place," she said practically, "when one has grown accustomed to its sandiness." "It will not be for long," said Percy Roden. And his sister turned and looked at him with a sudden gravity. "Ah!" she said.
