It means I've got to pack him home through the town jist ez he is thar, and then make a fire and bile his food for him, and wash him and undress him and put him to bed, and 'Now I lay me down to sleep' him, and tuck him up; and Dad all the while 'scootin' round town with other idjits, jawin' about 'progress' and the 'future of Injin Spring. Much future we've got over our own house, Mr. Ford.

And then I'll come scootin' home, an' there'll be a lot o' things happen all at once, 'round about that date." "I hope so, Martin; I hope so. It's a big thing you're doing for that boy. I hope he'll never forget it." "Not him! Bless me, it was a bigger thing he did for me.

Honest, that coat was enough to make an eccentric song and dance artist green in the eyes! And you can believe me when I say I didn't lose any time in scootin' 'em down Fourth-ave. to a dollar a day house patronized by some of our swellest Texas buyers. My next move is to make a report over the 'phone. "Yep, I got 'em both under lock and key," says I to Marjorie. "Trouble to pick em out?

"W'en ole Brer Wolf got dar, w'ich he come er scootin', dar wuz Brer Rabbit hol'in' on ter de cow-tail, fer ter keep it fum gwine in de groun'. Brer Wolf, he kotch holt, en dey 'gin a pull er two en up come de tail. Den Brer Rabbit, he wink his off eye en say, sezee: "'Dar! de tail done pull out en de cow gone, sezee.

"Started in Bear Cañon, but it's jumped out into the hills." "The wind must be driving it down toward the Jackpot!" "Yep. Like a scared rabbit. Crawford's trying to hold the mouth of the cañon. He's got a man's job down there. Can't spare a soul to keep it from scootin' over the hills." Dave rose. "I'll gather a bunch of men and ride right out. On what side of the cañon is the fire running?"

S'pose you stand up there in the door with your back to the clearin'. The next time that squirrel comes scootin' across I'll say, 'Now! and you try to turn and get your gun on him before he's out of sight. Will you try that?" "Suppose some one hears it?" "Oh, they're used to me pluggin' away for fun over here. Besides, they ain't anybody lives in hearin'."

But by the time the girls appeared we had yanked up all the sails that was handy, and the Pyxie was slanted over, just scootin' through the choppy water gay and careless, like she was glad to be tied loose. "Isn't this glorious?" exclaims Miss Hampton, steadying herself on the high side and glancin' admirin' up at the white sails stretched tight as drumheads. I expect that should have been Mr.

The captain was listenin' from the bridge, and he suspected somethin' was wrong and rang 'Slow down! just in time to save us from smashing bow on into that brigantine. Another time he rose on his hind legs and 'let out' a yelp that peeled everybody's eyes. Then the slippery, barnacle-covered bottom of a water-logged derelict went scootin' by a few yards off our starboard quarter.

"I want to wash out some dirt in that pan I'm prospecting for gold," he said; "don't you understand?" "Are ye a miner?" "Well, yes a sort of one," he returned, with a laugh. "Then ye'd better be scootin' out o' this mighty quick afore dad comes. He don't cotton to miners, and won't have 'em around. That's why he lives out here." "Well, I don't live out here," responded the young man lightly.

That would be all right if 'ye was the only man that was scootin', but if there was anything t' be made by it, there'd be more than a million sleds on the way, an' ye couldn't sell yer stuff for so much as ye git here. Some day ye'd come home and ask where's Ma an' Mary, and then Sam would say, 'Why, Mary's slid down t' New York, and the last I see o' Ma she was scootin' for Rochester."
