And he built 'a smasher' on the site of the old house, behind which the 'Liza Ann, or what there was left of it, was lying; and when the house was done, and furnished with the most gaudy and expensive furniture he could find in Boston and New York, he said it had just as good a right to a name as any body.
Denounce her as you may, she is such an one as heroines and world-wide characters are made of. Every one will want a copy of her "Life," forthcoming publication.

The pictures and portraits of the noted Smasher of joints are more than worth the nominal sum.
I'd perish you, I would, if I was 'im! Off the fyce o' the earth, an' charnce bein' 'ung for it! Take away that gun, you silly little imitation sojer d' you 'eer?" The weapon was extremely weighty. W. Keyse's arms ached frightfully. Perspiration trickled into his eyes from under the tilted smasher. He felt damp and small, and desperately at a loss.
"Quite so, quite so. Of course one doesn't think of such things, right at first. And you've had a knock-down a regular smasher, old chap." He stopped, cleared his voice and said sympathetically: "You adored her?" "I suppose I could give up the apartment and sell the auto," said Lightbody slowly, speaking to himself. De Gollyer smiled a bachelor smile.
Her idea is to get Gwen enthusiastic about people of this sort, or any of her charitable schemes, rather than dragging her off to Switzerland or Italy. Besides, she won't go!" "That's a smasher! The idea, I suppose, is to get her away and let the Torrens business die a natural death. Well it won't!" "You think not?" "No thinking about it! Sure of it!
"Down in the basement," Lawrence nodded. "I'd like to get something out of them." "Well, why look at me?" inquired Lawrence. "I'm no baggage smasher." "It's a pity you're not," rejoined Edestone. "You would be better at that than you are at diplomacy. However, all I want is for you to have someone show me where they are."
They are singing to each other: "I am delicate and slender And made for the salon..." "And I am the biggest smasher In all the present season..." "High up above the clouds I fly at heart's desire..." "And I'm a child of Krupp's, Whom nobody knew about..." "I fly, trackless as a breath..." "I slash on with smoke and roar..."

"The what?"
"I think you will find," said Sherlock Holmes, "that you will play for a higher stake to-night than you have ever done yet, and that the play will be more exciting. For you, Mr. Merryweather, the stake will be some £30,000; and for you, Jones, it will be the man upon whom you wish to lay your hands." "John Clay, the murderer, thief, smasher, and forger. He's a young man, Mr.
That was when I was small I did that. I'll tell you the secret, though, that girl and I are going to get married. I mean to ask her the first chance I get. Oh, isn't she a smasher!" "My dear Billy, sha'n't you wait a little while to see if you always like her as well as you do now? Then, too, you'll be older." "I'm old enough, Uncle Teddy, and I love her dearly!
