"I'm glad of it, for I'm nearly dead, too," came in a melancholy snuffle from the successful shot, at whose feet La Salle for the first time perceived a huge pool of blood. "Good Heavens! are you hurt? Did your gun burst?" asked La Salle, anxiously. "No, I've nothin' but the nose-bleed and a broken shoulder, I reckon.

Your religious paper is by far the best vehicle for a thing of this kind, because they'll 'lead' your article and put it right in the midst of the reading matter; and if it's got a few Scripture quotations in it, and some temperance platitudes and a bit of gush here and there about Sunday Schools, and a sentimental snuffle now and then about 'God's precious ones, the honest hard-handed poor, it works the nation like a charm, my dear sir, and never a man suspects that it is an advertisement; but your secular paper sticks you right into the advertising columns and of course you don't take a trick.

This caused the lady to snuffle and to draw from her pocket a richly embroidered handkerchief, and apply it to the corner of her eyes. But my master could not see that it was at all soiled.

Briggs' weeping snuffle, and her manner of using the handkerchief, were so completely rendered that Miss Crawley became quite cheerful, to the admiration of the doctors when they visited her, who usually found this worthy woman of the world, when the least sickness attacked her, under the most abject depression and terror of death.

Then he would burst rudely into my solitude and while I sopped cold water over his injured members, he would blubber. When I turned from him to my own corner by the window, the blubber would die away into a snuffle, and there he would sit, his head buried in his hands, snuffling and snuffling until books.

In all its magnitude of proportions, it was an intellectual nose. It was thin, horny, transparent, and sonorous. Its snuffle was consequential and its sneeze oracular. The very sight of it was impressive; its sound, when blown in school hours, was ominous.

"A' right," her hero would snuffle. One day he added, with a weakly swoop of one lean arm in the direction of her waist: "Mend me an' marry me. That's wot I call a Fair Division o' Labour. Twig?" She crimsoned, gasping: "You don't never mean it?" "Stryte I mean it," declared W. Keyse. "Wot d'you tyke me for?" His bed was in a corner, and a screen baffled prying eyes.

His voice, naturally soft and good, had contracted itself into a plaintive snuffle and singsong; he spoke as if preaching you could have said preaching earnestly and almost hopelessly the weightiest things.

I'll slip into my sitting-room, lock the door, and live there quietly and Jack will never know I'm in the house." "But, ma'am, won't that be dangerous?" "Danger is comparative. Anything is better than this!" "Just as you say; I suppose you're right, ma'am." And then with an hysterical snuffle: "But oh, ma'am, I wish I knew how this thing was ever going to turn out!"

"Hurraar! Brrrraaah! Brrrrrrp!" roared the Steam through the fog-horn, till the decks quivered. "Don't be frightened, below. It's only me, just throwing out a few words, in case any one happens to be rolling round to-night." "You don't mean to say there's any one except us on the sea in such weather?" said the funnel, in a husky snuffle. "Scores of 'em," said the Steam, clearing its throat.
