"I'm going to be a' aviator, too; I think a' aviator is braver than anybody. I'd rather be a' aviator than a general or a policeman or anybody. I got a picture of you in my scrap-book you got a funny hat like Cousin Bobby wears when he plays football in it. Shall I get you the picture in my scrap-book?... Honest, will you give me another?"
Sir Alan was undoubtedly murdered. The dagger-like attachment to your Japanese sword had been driven into his breast up to the hilt, actually splitting his heart. To deliver such a blow, with such a weapon, required uncommon strength and skill. I think I describe it here as 'un-English." Brett referred to his scrap-book.
Haliburton, I had amused myself as best I could, talking to some prosy relatives of the family who stood around the walls, and turning over the leaves of an artistic scrap-book that lay upon the broad window-sill at one end of the room. I was grateful when Mr. Haliburton came and took me away into the crowd. I was beginning to feel tired of the situation and to wish I were safely at home.
Her knight had triumphed in his first real passage at arms, and she sent to me a chaplet of victory. It came not a wreath, but a cushion worked with her own hands, mauve and white, the colors of McGraw, with '91 in black on one side and on the other the word "Excelsior." The scrap-book grew rapidly to alarming proportions, for having now my opportunity I worked hard, and Mr.
As for her father, the very sight of the scrap-book awoke the echoes of a hundred experiences long and dangerous rides in the lonely night, battles, sharp skirmishes and bitter sufferings. The story, such as it was, took shape in my mind, and I am afraid that the young girl had small difficulty in persuading me to tell it.
Other times it was hid with a little curtain. The young woman in the picture had a kind of a nice sweet face, but there was so many arms it made her look too spidery, seemed to me. This young girl kept a scrap-book when she was alive, and used to paste obituaries and accidents and cases of patient suffering in it out of the Presbyterian Observer, and write poetry after them out of her own head.
The Lady Principal is seated near a table, on which lie some books in expensive bindings, which I imagine to have been presented to her by the parents of pupils who were leaving school. One has given her a photographic album; another a large scrap-book, for illustrations of all kinds; a third volume has red edges, and is presumably of a devotional character.
I dined in my own rooms, and spent the evening in looking over the various billets-doux, received during my sejour at Paris. "Where shall I put all these locks of hair?" asked Bedos, opening a drawer full. "Into my scrap-book." "And all these letters?" "Into the fire." I was just getting into bed when the Duchesse de Perpignan's note arrived it was as follows: "My dear Friend,
"You'd oughter start a scrap-book yourself you're plenty old enough. You could make a beauty just about your Ma, with her picture pasted in the front and another about Mr. Moffatt and his collections. There's one I cut out the other day that says he's the greatest collector in America." Paul listened, fascinated. He had the feeling that Mrs.
He had no scrap-book at all. Also no home. Mr. Sides at one time became quite civilized, distinguishing himself from his tribe by reading the Bible and imprisoning the lower drapery of his linen garment in the narrow confines of a pair of cavalry trousers, instead of giving it to the irresponsible breeze, as other Piutes did.
