"So Bayne declared," said Barry. "Well, you have had quite an exciting afternoon. But finish your tea and get ready for the meeting. I will wash up." "Not if I know it, dad. You take your saw-horse and do me a little Handel or Schubert. Do, please," entreated his son. "I want that before meeting more than anything else. I want a change of mood. I confess I am slightly rattled.
A saddle is placed upon his upper deck, a sort of saw-horse, and the lower legs stretch at an angle sufficiently obtuse to encompass his breadth of beam. This saw-horse is lashed to the hull with numerous straps and ropes and on top of it are placed rugs and cushions.
"The president, the governor, the first treasury, and the keeper of the great seal. We stand on the barrel and saw-horse, and make laws to the other members of the club, who stand outside." Aunt Stanshy now turned to inspect the other parts of the chamber. "This is our whipping-post," said Charlie, calling attention to a post against which leaned the ladder that sloped up to the cupola.
The minister's face was troubled. "I wish I knew what to do for them," he said sadly. "I'll tell you something you can do for me," the doctor said sitting up straight, "or at least something you may try to do." "What is it?" the minister asked. "Devise some method, suggest some course of treatment, whereby my tried and trusty horse Pleurisy will cease to look so much like a saw-horse.
The sleigh was stranded among tall weeds an cornstalks, but I was politely handed in by the elder boy, who sat down by my side and tucked his little brother in front at our feet, informing me that we were father and mother and little son, going to take a ride to Newburyport. He had found an old pair of reins and tied them to a saw-horse, that he switched and "Gee-up"-ed vigorously.
Ozma was watching, and saw the Pumpkinhead come to life; so that night she took the pepper-box containing the Powder and ran away with it and with Jack, in search of adventures. "Next day they found a wooden Saw-Horse standing by the roadside, and sprinkled it with the Powder. It came to life at once, and Jack Pumpkinhead rode the Saw-Horse to the Emerald City."
"Don't you want that wood outside sawed and split?" "Yes." "Let me do it." "Go ahead." There was a saw and saw-horse outside. The work was not new to Joe, and he went at it vigorously. No bargain had been made, but Joe knew so little of what would be considered a fair price that in this first instance he chose to leave it to his employer. As he was at work Folsom and his friend passed by.
Somebody has got the start, and gone to sleep. He proclaims the fact. He seems to have been brought up on the seashore, and to know how to make all the deep-toned noises of the restless ocean. He is also like a war- horse; or, it is suggested, like a saw-horse. How malignantly he snorts, and breaks off short, and at once begins again in another key! One head is raised after another.
"It is when it's not alive," acknowledged the girl. "But this sawhorse can trot as fast as you can, Jim; and he's very wise, too." "Pah! I'll race the miserable wooden donkey any day in the week!" cried the cab-horse. Dorothy did not reply to that. She felt that Jim would know more about the Saw-Horse later on.
His mother made a little red coat for him, and he had his toy fire engine that pumped real water. "But you mustn't squirt it on anyone in the audience," cautioned Bert. "No, I'll just squirt it on the wild animals if they get bad," said the little fellow. Nan was to be a bare-back rider, and Harry had made her a wooden steed from a saw-horse, with rope for reins.
