Then Rosie began to cry not silently, but noisily, hysterically. I stopped her by giving her a good shake. "What in the world is the matter with you?" I snapped. "Has the day of good common sense gone by! Sit up and tell me the whole thing." Rosie sat up then, and sniffled. "I was coming up the drive " she began.
A pleased, interested look appeared in her tear-stained face. She sniffled and waggled it again. "You PRECIOUS!" cried Evylyn and kissed her, but before she left the room she levelled another frown at Hilda. Careless! Servants all that way nowadays. If she could get a good Irishwoman but you couldn't any more and these Swedes
Elliott decidedly, "the boy remains here, if he so elects. That ends the matter, I think." Brady made a great ado. He tried to look pathetic and mournful. "My boy," he sniffled, "won't you grant the dying request I mean the ardent request of your poor, homeless old relative?" "I thought your eighteen million dollar friend had given you a home," intimated Ned.
If each of us did our share, as Mary Rose was always asking us to do, we'd find this world a friendlier place than it is." "She must have said that to me a hundred times," sniffled Miss Adams. "I knew she was right all the time but I wouldn't say so." "It's easy to get out of the habit of being friendly in the city," murmured Mrs. Matchan. "It's different in the country."
Now and then, for no apparent reason, she sniffled. Gwendolyn's mind was occupied by a terrifying series of pictures that Miss Royle's declaration called up.

"Roxy sniffled it all to me this morning when she was pouring out her trouble because you hadn't been over to cheer up the bugger to-day. She told Pink and Sam and Belle and the Sponge and me all about it, and I can tell you we thrilled some.

She was never what he would have called a sympathetic woman, but really ! "I came the moment you 'phoned me," he stammered; "what is it? What's the matter?" "It's awful," sniffled Zoie. And she tore up and down the room regardless of the fact that Jimmy was still unseated. "Awful what?" questioned Jimmy. "Worst I've ever had," sobbed Zoie. "Is anything wrong with Alfred?" ventured Jimmy.
"It is he who knows how to touch the heart!" "Quel beau moment!" cried the wizened man, in a transport. "See the jury weep!"

As for the peasant women and the shop keepers, they could not have been more moved if the culprit had been a blood relation. How they enjoyed their tears!
Forgiveness! What a cowardly whimperer that other Rector was! See how the imbecile had sniffled at a lot of humbug memories back there near the tavern of siñá Tona! Lanudo! Just the name for a coward like that! Fine sentiments those had been to justify a man without the guts to protect his own dignity as a man! Such stuff might do very well for don Santiago!
"I don't keer if she did, dat don't make yer housekeeper any more'n stolen feathers makes a jackdaw an eagle."

"Don't let us conflusticate dese little seasons of union by savagerousnesses; don't, I beg." "Den her leave me alone," sniffled Vic.
