"Don't get so interested in your work that you forget why you're out there," growled Stetson. Mrs. Bullone was a fat little mouse of a woman. She stood almost in the center of the guest room of her home, hands clasped across the paunch of a long, dull silver gown.
While she was speaking, Grace, under the lap-robe, pressed her lover's hand. But as June wore away, one day when Jack visited the office of his step-father, he found Stetson there, and was informed by him that some evil-disposed persons were 'bearing' the stock of the Wedge of Gold Company, which was most unfortunate, as it interfered with the arrangements in progress for building the mill.
The rueful visage disappeared, unable to withstand such a broadside, and its owner subsequently proved to be a first-rate seaman, and was an especial favorite with Stetson. A circumstance occurred while the ship was in the stream, where she lay at anchor two or three days, which will convey a correct ides of the character of the mate.
Now, however, he spoke, and his voice sounded grave for one of Pete's usually lively temperament. "It means that ole Mar'm Desert is gettin' inter a tantrum," he grunted, "and that we're in an almighty fix," he added to himself. "Is it going to rain?" inquired Ralph Stetson, as it grew rapidly darker. "Rain?" grunted Pete.
Webb Yeager pushed back his flat-brimmed Stetson, and made further disorder in his straw-coloured hair. The tonsorial recourse being without avail, he followed the liquid example of the more resourceful Baldy. "If a man marries a queen, it oughtn't to make him a two-spot," declared Webb, epitomising his grievances.
After he had departed Stetson explained that Osman had just as little chance of getting within speaking distance of the grand vizier as of the ladies of his harem. "It's like Tammany," said Stetson; "there are sachems, district leaders, and lieutenants.
Then: "Heleb was on line of flight to Auriga, and Auriga was on the list. We've reason to doubt they put anyone down on Auriga. If their ship ran into trouble " "That's it!" snapped Orne. "Keep your voice down or talk subvocally." ordered Stetson. "Now, answer my question: What's up?" "Something so fantastic it frightens me," said Orne.
A full page he covered with items set against the names of various neighbors. When he had finished he folded the paper neatly and put it away with other important memoranda, picked up his big gray Stetson and went over to kiss Belle full on her red lips, and to smooth her hair, with a reassuring pat on her plump shoulder as a final caress.
"It's signed by Mr. Stetson, you say?" exclaimed Ralph eagerly. "Sure. He's the main boss on this road, you know, and " "I know, I know!" cried Ralph eagerly, "but is he here across the border?" "Huh? Not he. He's in the best hotel in El Paso, consulting and smoking two-bit seegars. But my job's here, and here I stick." But Ralph and Jack had not heard this speech.
He measured him mentally from pigskin puttees to rakish, stiff brimmed Stetson with careful dimples in the crown and a leather hatband stamped with horses' heads and his initials. In a picture, Luck would have cast Bently Brown, costume and all, for a comedy mining engineer or something of that sort.
