"What has happened? Where are you going in those clothes?" demanded Kitty. "I am running away for an hour or so." "But you must not! The risks after all the trouble we've had to help you!" "I shall be perfectly safe, for you are going with me. Aren't you my guardian angel? Well, rather! The two of us people, lights, shop windows! Perfectly splendiferous! Honestly, now, where's the harm?"
I don't know the value of the critters; but I ain't altogether a reg'lar, soft-headed, know-nothin' fool; and if I had a mind to part with this 'ere splendiferous animal, I should want boot." "You're a hard one," said the major; "but as fur as twenty dollars " "Twenty dollars! get out," said the agent, indignantly. "G'lang, Bob!" and he actually started his team. "Hold on!" roared the major.
"Put on a kimona, Midget," she said at last; "you'll catch cold flying around in your night dress." "Kit," said her sister, unheeding the admonition, and sitting down on the edge of her bed as she talked, "I've the most splendiferous plan!" "So've I," said Kitty; "mine is to go back to bed and sleep till breakfast time." "Pooh! you old Armadillo! Mine's nothing like that."
"Oh no, Papa, it isn't that only we've been having a feast in the loft." "Did you have a good time?" asked Papa, while Aunt Izzie gave a dissatisfied groan.

At this point they again entered the forest, screened by young growth and a thicket of alders. "Look there," Amy pointed out. "See that dogwood, up by the yellow pine. It's the most splendiferous we've seen yet. Wait a minute. I'm going to get a branch of it for Mr. Welton's office. I don't believe anybody ever picks anything for him."
Martin rallied me on the settled gravity of my face and then I had to smile, though how I did so I do not know, for every other minute my heart was in my mouth, and never more so than when, to make me laugh, he rattled away in the language of his boyhood, saying: "Isn't this stunning? Splendiferous, eh?"
I don't like her, but I can't help being just a little bit sorry for her. You know, she hasn't any mother to help her and love her and advise her. Her father is so busy making money, he doesn't pay much attention to her. Fathers are splendid, but mothers are simply splendiferous. I don't know what I'd do without my Captain."
Mother had Abe Lincoln split up a lot o' fine, dry hickory. Then she het up the big brick oven out by the Summer-kitchen, and she baked there a lot o' loaves o' her splendiferous salt-raisin' bread, the best in the whole country, if I do say it myself."
No matter how fur you went you'd see oceans uv green trees ahead uv you, an' on one side uv you prairies covered with buffaler herds so big that they'd be a week passin' you, an' then they'd still be passin'." Long Jim heaved a deep sigh and was silent for a while. Paul, too, was silent. At last Long Jim said: "I s'pose it don't pay, Paul, to be drawin' sech splendiferous pictures uv what ain't.
Ef so, you kin jest bring it to me while I'm layin' here an' I'll eat it in bed." "Your breakfus ready!" replied Jim Hart indignantly. "What sort uv nonsense are you talkin' now, Sol Hyde?"
