The woman of all work waited spasmodically upon the table; she proved to be Lugene, none other than the girl Hen and Cally had found on Dunbar Street, that day long ago.... Old times; so, too, when the Major told with accustomed verve how papa, a little shaver then, had brought the note from Aunt Molly down to camp, fifty years ago....
Presently a woman, with a child in her arms, came out of the lodge and proceeded to open the gate for us. Said the driver "How's Johnny to-night?" The woman shouted something in reply, but I don't think the old fellow heard her. "Ay, ay," he called out, "Johnny will be a famous young shaver one of these days;" and with that, he whipped up his horse, and away we went.
Once, indeed, I but this is getting too personal: I was simply about to say that it is possible to purchase a twenty-five cent safety-razor, returnable if unsatisfactory, and find the place of sale vanished before you can get back to it. But between inventions in safety-razors, the extraordinary-safety shaver is likely to revert to first principles and the naked steel of his ancestors.
I got in the way of calling him that when he was a little shaver and used to row me about with his father." The Canal was twinkling with gondola lights, and as they approached the broad arch of the Rialto the crowd became greater, obliging them to pause now and then, while the dip of multitudinous oars made itself heard, a delicious undertone to the shouts and execrations of excited gondoliers.

Or they pull out a log to make an opening, closing it up quick, so the spirit won't find his way back." Kaviak continued to lament. "Sorry we can't offer you some blubber, Kaviak." "'Tain't that he's missin'; he's got an inexhaustible store of his own. His mistake is offerin' it to us." "I know what's the matter with that little shaver," said the Boy.
