"I saved his infant life, you know; and the benefactor always loves the thing he benefits. It is on this principle alone God loves his erring creatures, Mrs.
"En den Brer Rabbit sorter grin, he did, en de gals giggle, en Miss Meadows, she praise up de pony, en dar wuz Brer Fox hitch fas' ter de rack, en couldn't he'p hisse'f." "Is that all, Uncle Remus?" asked the little boy as the old man paused. "Dat ain't all, honey, but 'twon't do fer ter give out too much cloff fer ter cut one pa'r pants," replied the old man sententiously.
Nobody interferes; there is little public spirit in a caravan: so he consents to an explanation, saying sententiously, "My little wife is mad." The fact is, his two helpmates, one young and one old, are vastly too much for him, as they would be for most men. He moves along in a perpetual family tornado.
"You're a woman and he's a man," said Mother Cockleshell sententiously. "We are chums, pals, whatever you like to call us. I want to see him happy."

"Three-and-twenty," I said sententiously, like a catechumen responding to the questions supposed to be addressed to "N or M."
"That's the way to look at it!" exclaimed Will. "How did it happen, anyhow?" "Plug out of the bottom," explained Mollie, sententiously. "The twins!" "I see! Say, she's going down all right!" This Will remarked as the boat from which the girls had climbed settled lower and lower in the water. "Oh, can't we save it?" cried Mollie. "My poor boat!"

The old lady placed her cards deliberately, on the table as she said sententiously: "She would stay with us here if you were engaged to her!" The shock had cone.
