At seven o'clock, the blackness was broken by a last display of the aurora borealis, which showed to the west a broad opening between snow-clad mountains. "Squaw Creek!" Joy exclaimed. "Goin' some," Shorty exulted. "We oughtn't to been there for another half hour to the least, accordin' to my reckonin'. I must 'a' been spreadin' my legs."

It's only darkness I find in this village," argued O'Connell. "I've given my life to spreadin' the Light!" said the priest. A smile hovered on O'Connell's lips as he muttered: "Faith, then, I'm thinkin' it must be a DARK-LANTERN yer usin', yer riverence." "Is that the son of Michael O'Connell talkin'?"

"Why, where'd you s'pose we got it? Do you think Dan Anderson has took to pastry along with the statoots made and pervided? As for Dan, he ain't been here so very long, but he's come to stay. We're goin' to send him to Congress if we ever get time to organize our town, or find out what county we're in. How'd our Delergate look spreadin' jelly cake? Nope, he didn't make it.

I don't mean she's any side-show freak. Not as bad as that. But for her height, which is about medium, I should say, she sure is bulky. The way she sits there with her skirts spreadin' wide around her feet, she has all the graceful outlines of a human water tower.

It was the girl who first discovered this. She sprang up from her place with a startled exclamation. "Oh," said she, "th' fire is spreadin'!" He rose quickly to his feet. They were appalled by the predicament in which they found themselves. The thing seemed quite mysterious.

"If you go to spreadin' yourself all over creation, as boys are very apt to do, your money won't go very far; but if you look at your money two or three times afore you spend it, you ought to get back and have a dollar or two left."

But now, all he has to do is to stand up there and look off into the glowin' heavens, a watchin' the golden light of the sun of Liberty a rollin' on westward. He holds his hand over his eyes; its rays most blind him, he is most lost a thinkin' how fur, how fur them rays are a spreadin', and a glowin',way, way off, Morgan is a lookin' onto our future, and it dazzles him.

So he would go on and argy, regardless of common sense or Tirzah Ann's legs. And then Uncle Nate would reply: "Josiah, safety lays on the ground, and in this climate more liable each year to tornadoes and cyclones, the only safety lays in spreadin' out on the ground. Build only one story," sez he, "and a low one at that, and let it spread out every way as much as it wants to."

I was out spreadin' clothes, and I seen him circling round the Kerry cow, and he as big as a man!" screamed the girl. "He was, the thief!" yelled the old woman. "I seen him firsht on the hill, cringeing behind a rock, and he hardly able to thrail the tail afther him!"
