There was a case of umbrellas with elaborate handles and rich tassels. There were a couple of statuettes. The counter, on the customers' side, ended in a glass screen on which were the words 'Private Office. On the seller's side the prospect was closed by a vast safe. A tall young man was fumbling in this safe. Two women sat on customers' chairs, leaning against the crystal counter.
But the Difficulty was to induce the Seller's Wife to be a Party in such a scandalous Contract; for tho' she was of low Extraction, she had an Elevation of Mind, a Purity of Virtue, which would have done Honour to the highest.
He wanted to know something of its practical side. Andy did not dally around the ticket seller's booth, the side shows or the crowded main entrance of the show. Once, when a small circus had visited Fairview, he had gotten a free pass by carrying buckets of water to the cook's tent. He had now a vague hope that some such fortunate chance might turn up on this new occasion.
Suppose I saw Polyte steal a couple of pairs of boots from a trotter-case seller's stall " Polyte interrupted the narrator, protesting so strongly that he would not commit such an act, that Tantaine perceived at once that some such trifling act of larceny weighed heavily on his conscience. "You needn't kick up such a row," returned Toto. "I am only just putting it as a thing that might happen.
It is these worthy people who make the laws of demand work out as we well know they do. It is they who will curtail their consumption if the price has fallen and it is they who constitute the seller's problem, and help to keep down prices for the rest of us. The rest of us it is well to be quite blunt about it simply do not count in this connection.
I have become convinced from long labor in this reform that the ordinary license system is only a poultice to the dram seller's conscience, and for restraining intemperance it is a ghastly failure. Institutions and patent medicines to cure drinkers have only had a partial success. The only sure cure for drunkenness is to stop before you begin.
Again, if Sidney Bolton intended to steal the emeralds, he could have done so in Malta, or on board the boat." "No," said Lucy decisively. "The mummy was taken directly from the seller's house to the boat, and perhaps Sidney did not find the manuscript until he looked at the mummy. Then Captain Hervey kept an eye on Sidney, so that he could not open the mummy to steal the emeralds."
He had taken the money which he imperatively needed to pay notes soon due, and invested in Princeton Platinum, with which the obliging Erastus Snaffle had supplied him out of pure generosity, if one could credit the seller's statements; and he had been secretly depending for relief upon this very gift from Irons which he had destroyed.
This interview was to be person to person. If Wass did not appear within a reasonable length of time he would leave. And Hume hoped to any unseen watcher he presented the appearance of a man not impressed by stage settings. After all he was now in the seller's space boots, and it was a seller's market. Ras Hume rested his right hand on the table.
The strangest effect of all is when they happen, round about Easter, to be selling only lilies, and the unearthly purity of the lilies shines on the passersby from close to the seller's terrible face. Christ must often have looked like that, when he sat close up to Pharisees. But although Kloster's music was certainly as beautiful as the lilies, he himself wasn't like those tragic sellers.
