This allusion to the `Jaunty' silenced the incorrigible Larrikins for the nonce; though he sniggered at Mick saying `downstairs' instead of below, as most landsmen do when new to board-ship life. The next moment, however, Master Larrikins was at it again, trying to `take a rise out of me, Mick having thus discouraged his advances in that direction.
"You you bought Zip's claim?" he asked incredulously. "Ha'f of it. Me an' Zip's partners. You got anything to say?" Bill's words rapped out with biting force, and Sandy, knowing the man, waited, solemn-eyed. Just for one moment astonishment held his audience breathless. Then some one sniggered, and it became the cue for an instantaneous and general guffaw of derision.
"Moses!" she observed aloud, "but he has improved in looks since he landed here his looks, however, are a mere incident compared to the value of his name on the business end of a check. Harpe," she sniggered at a mental picture "how will you look anyhow hanging to a man's arm?
"Guess Uncle Salters's goin' to die this trip. Fust compliment he's ever paid me," Dan sniggered. "What's wrong with you, Harve? You act all quiet and you look greenish. Feelin' sick?" "Don't know what's the matter with me," Harvey implied. "Seems if my insides were too big for my outsides. I'm all crowded up and shivery." "Dispepsy? Pshaw too bad.
Blanche was no less practical. "Kissed a wench for the same purpose," she cried. "The times that I've been wooed out of my name!" "Picked the woman's pocket," Casin Cholet hinted, wagging his shock head wisely, while Jehan le Loup, with a hideous leer, sniggered: "Got near her in the crowd and pinched her," and suited the action to the word with finger and thumb on Blanche's plump shoulder.
A solemn silence fell on the room, Pinchas sniggered unobtrusively. "You have a little article headed, 'Talmudic Tales. Why in heaven's name you couldn't have finished the column with bits of news I don't know. Satan himself must have put the thought into your head. Just at the end of the paper, too! For I can't reckon page 8, which is simply our own advertisement."
I think the Butterfly Man and Major Cartwright buy those papers because they think they are funny! After they have read and sniggered, they donate them to Clélie and Daddy January. And presently Clélie distributes them to a waiting colored countryside, which wallpapers its houses with them.
"Indeed I should have done so before, only I knew that you had gone to pay a visit to that tall white 'Missis' who ties up her head in a blanket, and thought that neither of you would like to be disturbed." "Then you thought wrong," I answered, "and what is more, if you had made that visit I think it might have been one from which you would never have come back." "Oh yes, Baas," sniggered Hans.
You couldn't have done much in such a short time, but you surely have found out something. Speak!" Ostrov sniggered rather stupidly, fidgeted as if he were sitting on springs, and said: "Very well, I'll tell you something interesting and won't charge you a penny for it." Trirodov, without taking off his heavy, fixed gaze from Ostrov's face, repeated: "Speak!"
Remember, you're the mother of a family! Cut out having too many dances with that monk. He holds you too tight. I think he's one of the committee men. You floss up to the tallest domino and give him a good time. That's the Boss." The flower girl sniggered and Henderson pushed her from him with marital impatience and took an Indian squaw away from the hobo. "Come on, little girl," he said.
