"It's what you got for me and I thank you for it." "You needn't," she came back at me spunky little thing. "It isn't worth thanking anybody for. It's only a partial fact." "And you think half truths are dangerous?" I smiled at her. "There isn't any such thing," she instructed me. "Even facts can hardly be split into fractions; while the truth is always whole and complete."

But she did not escape his notice, and after coolly surveying her for a moment, he walked up to her, saying, "How d'ye, polywog? I'll be hanged if I know to what gender you belong woman or gal which is it, hey?" "None of your business," was 'Lena's ready answer. "Spunky, ain't you," said he, unceremoniously pulling one of the brown curls which Durward had so longed to touch.

A little on the strawbary-blonde, but not too much red in her hair, an' yet spunky as a badger when yeh teased her. "The boys down this way didn't have much show. It looked like Jess had hit it off with Jud Brusie, a big, husky, clean-lookin' chap up to the h'ist.

You have muddied the boa, I think, but never mind. Can I see her once more?" "For Heaven's sake, Aunt Lucia, anybody would think Caddy was in her grave! She's a long way from it yet, thank God! Of course she's conscious, and spunky as the as ever. I don't think you really needed to "

"The Britisher laughed, picked him up, brushed his clothes and told him to go home." The Boy laughed again and again. "He was a spunky one anyhow, wasn't he?" "Yes," the mother nodded, "that's why the Red-coat let him go. And we never could have endured if God hadn't inspired one man to hold fast when other hearts had failed." "And who was he?" the Boy broke in. "General Washington.

"Then!" cried Sybilla, with a blaze of her black eyes, "I'll take the game out of your hands. I'll foil you with your own weapons. I never failed yet. I'll not fail now. I'm a match for a dozen such as you!" "I believe, in my soul, you are!" exclaimed the artist, in a burst of admiring enthusiasm. "You're the real grit, and no mistake. I do admire spunky girls I do, by jingo!

Besides all these, we encountered Killers and Thrashers, by far the most spirited and "spunky" of the finny tribes. Though little larger than a porpoise, a band of them think nothing of assailing leviathan himself. They bait the monster, as dogs a bull.

I wouldn't let no old spunky Miss Minerva get the best of me that 'way. Come on, anyhow." "Naw, I can't come," was the gloomy reply; "if she'd jest tol' me not to, I coulder went but she made me promise, an' I ain't never goin' back on my word. You come over to see me." "I can't," came the answer across the fence; "I'm earning me a baseball mask. I done already earnt me a mitt.

Of course she couldn't tell in a letter about hundreds of pictures, but it was easy enough to tell all about a man. Father got sort of spunky at that, and he said it was mighty little that mattered most, that could be told about a Chicago lawyer; and mother had better caution Shelley to think more about her work, and write less of the man.

In one day last season Evan came to my rescue and filled a quart jar in two hours; they are so fat and spunky they may be considered as the big game among garden bugs, and their catching, if not carried to an extreme, in the light of sport.
