"Oh well, you're young yet," he suggested shame-facedly, "perhaps it will come to you later." "No, it won't!" she flared back, "I've got to give it up and go to teaching school!" She stomped her foot more impatiently than ever and Denver went to cracking rocks.

That lone green eye began to roll to Cis's face, seeing the truth written there, and the story of her long hours of suffering; to the countenance of the priest, to ask, dumbly, if any living man had ever heard anything more outrageous than this; then, "By the Great Horn Spoon!" he breathed, and again stomped one foot, like an angry steer. Big Tom's smile widened.

When I wouldn't pay any attention, he threw the Bible at me an' stomped out!" "Is he back yet?" Jane seemed to lose some of her gaiety when asking this. "No'm; an' I hope he won't never come back!" "Have you any idea where he is?" "Only he said he an' Tusk Potter were goin' in the mountains after ginseng. They go most every yeah.

He had proof, he said, and he called for the president of his Union, Mr. Heegan. At the name all the loafers and stew-bums in the court-room stomped and said, 'Hear, hear, while up steps this Napoleon of the Hoboes.

And she kinder stomped her feet and sez, "I fling off the dust I have gethered here, at your feet." Now my floor wuz clean and looked like yeller glass, almost, it wuz so shinin' and spotless, and I resented the idee of her sayin' that she collected dust off from it. But I didn't say nothin' back. She had the bag of poetry on her arm, and I didn't feel like addin' any more to her troubles.

Well, then they ripped and howled and stomped and clapped their hands till Tom Sawyer was that proud and happy he didn't know what to do with himself. And then the judge he looked down over his pulpit and says: "My boy, did you SEE all the various details of this strange conspiracy and tragedy that you've been describing?" "No, your honor, I didn't see any of them." "Didn't see any of them!

One side of his mouth twitched continually, making the man look as though he were laughing.

Sez Cephas, "The worm has turned, Josiah Allen's wife! Yes, I feel that I have got to look now to more distant relations for comfort. Yes, the worm has been stomped on too heavy." He looked cold, cold as a iceickle almost. And I see that jest the few words I had spoke, jest the slight hints I had gin, hadn't been took as they should have been took. So I said no more.

Before daylight, Tom was back at his workbench ready to begin assembling the units of his new sonar gear. Later he phoned Chow but scarcely paused to eat when the cook arrived with his order.
