"No," said Fred. "But never mind; there's no knowing of what use it may be, and it's our secret, isn't it?" "Oh yes, it's our secret, Fred." "And how we could scare the servants now, by hiding and groaning." "Till my father examined and found it all out. I shouldn't like to look him in the face when he did." "No," said Fred; "it wouldn't be nice. I say, what stupids we should look!"
Shaking myself free of my guards, who had no business to hold me, the stupids, unless I was found guilty, I asked the colonel what he considered the first duty of a soldier? Ere he could reply, the President of the United States rose and informed the court, that my foe, the admiral, had suggested 'Bravery, and that prompting a witness wasn't fair.
"My friend," said Gaudissart, "you don't know the provincials; there's a surgical operation called by that name, and they are such stupids that they'll think your oil is meant to facilitate childbirth. To drag them back from that to hair is beyond even my powers of persuasion."
Lord!" he cried, with feigned awe, getting to his feet at sight of the two. Then, to his comrades, "Children, children, off with your hats! Here is Monsieur Talleyrand, if I'm not mistaken. On to your feet, mealman, and dust your stomach. Lajeunesse, wipe your face with your leather. Duck your heads, stupids!" With mock solemnity the three greeted Parpon and Lagroin.
Some, however, for various reasons have to remain for a longer period of physical exercise. The majority of these are classified into three groups: I. Mathematical Dullards. II.

"That has happened often, since I can remember," said Lund, "and I suppose is likely to after I am gone; but it seems to me that those stupids might learn something by this time."
I said at the time that the bodice should be cut longer, and made of two widths. It was your fault, Sonia, with your advice to make it shorter, and now you see the child is quite deformed by it.... Why, you're all crying again! What's the matter, stupids? Come, Kolya, begin. Make haste, make haste! Oh, what an unbearable child! "Cinq sous, cinq sous. "A policeman again! What do you want?"
Then Kenneth laughed, and the sound sent a nervous shiver through the group. "Tato's a brick!" announced the boy, audaciously. "Can't you see, you stupids, that the thing is a good joke on us all? Or are you too thin skinned to laugh at your own expense?" "Oh, we can laugh," responded Uncle John, gravely. "But if Tato's a brick it's because she is hard and insensible.
"No, no, no. . . . You must put down a kopeck." "You stupids. A rouble is worth more than a kopeck anyway," the schoolboy explains. "Whoever wins can give me change." "No, please! Go away!" The fifth form schoolboy shrugs his shoulders, and goes into the kitchen to get change from the servants. It appears there is not a single kopeck in the kitchen.
It was such an evident cul-de-sac that there was nothing for it but to turn back. When they again reached the stiles they found Geraldine sitting upon the right-hand one. Her expression was thundery, and her greeting the reverse of cordial. "Where have you been, you two stupids? Why can't you keep up with the rest of us instead of side-tracking like this?
