"What shall we do with Martin, anyway?" demanded Dan Dalzell. "Nothing," returned Dick crisply. "He isn't worthy of having anything done to him." "Let's call 'Ted' with all our might," proposed Harry. "You can, if you want to," Dick rejoined. "I doubt if he is now near enough to hear you. Even if he did hear, he'd only snicker and run further away."
"But I don't just understand," he drawled insinuatingly. "Haig hasn't been away from the Park lately unless he's gone an' come by night." A snicker or two, and one loud guffaw rewarded him for this insult to his absent foe. But Marion felt the color rising to her cheeks. "It's a year ago he's seen him, 'way off, shinin' in the sun," explained Larkin.
So Tommy rushed to the 'phone and called up a doctor, and then he ran out of the store and got a cop, and when he gets him in he says to the cop, 'They're dying, and the cop says, 'Like blazes they're dying, he says. So that got me going worse than ever, and the cop was beginning to snicker too.
We did the drive of twenty miles to the ranch in a canvas-topped buggy, drawn by a pair of devil-may-care little nags, who took us across dry arroyos and the rocky beds of running streams in a style that promised to make sticks of the vehicle. It held good, however, and rattled out a sort of derisive snicker at every fresh attempt to shiver it.
"Shut up now till yer hear me, an' cross yerself, for I mane it." Such was the warning from her mate. "No; I say them to another lady Our Lady." "Oh gracious!" Freckles cried out under her breath and began to snicker. "What lady?" The Marchioness looked astonished but intensely interested. "The Holy Virgin.
She knew she was unfair; and Bobby's unexpected reply pilloried the teacher before the whole class. There was a bustle in the room and a not-entirely-smothered snicker. Had there been any way of punishing the girl Miss Carrington would certainly have done it. She was neither just nor merciful, but she was exact. She could see no crevice in Bobby's armor.
I heard the low responses, and counted them ten, the negro not answering.

Make a wrong move, lad, and you'll never make another." I could faintly discern the whites of his eyes, and heard one of the men snicker nervously. "Lead off!

Just then a young woman passed on the sidewalk; and I saw Mack kind of half snicker and blush, and then he raised up his hat and smiled and bowed, and she smiled and bowed, and went on by. "No hope for you," says I, "if you've got the Mary-Jane infirmity at your age. I thought it wasn't going to take on you. And patent leather shoes! All this in two little short months!"
You must hurry, Mr. Gamble." "Yes, I will," and he tried to hitch his chair closer. "You're telephoning from the house, then?" "No-o-o-o!" and he thought he detected a stifled snicker.
