"I'll take you another hundred that we pass you," answered my uncle. "Very good. Time's up. Good-bye!" He gave a tchk of the tongue, shook his reins, saluted with his whip; in true coachman's style, and away he went, taking the curve out of the square in a workmanlike fashion that fetched a cheer from the crowd.
All day she went about in a buoyant desperation, and she came down to meet her father at supper. "Well, Persis," he said scornfully, as he sat down, "we might as well saved our good resolutions till they were wanted. I guess those English parties have gone back on Rogers." "Do you mean he didn't come?" "He hadn't come up to half-past five," said Lapham. "Tchk!" uttered his wife.
And Allan Gold was not teaching in the schoolhouse on Thunder Run.... The woman took the baby back. The sun blazed down, there came a louder burst of sound. A man with a field-glass, standing near, uttered a "Tchk!" of despair. "Impenetrable curtain! The ancients managed things better they did not fight in a fog!"
"Maybe that's why I picked out this particular shade," says I. "Tchk!" says she, tappin' me on the arm. "Tell me, how do you get it to wave so cunningly in front?" "Don't give it away," says I, "but I do demonstratin' at a male beauty parlor." This seems to tickle Betty so much that she has to lean over and chuckle on my shoulder. "Bob calls you Torchy, doesn't he?" she goes on.
Ellen was not with them, nor Boyne, but Trannel was not asked to take either of the vacant places at the table, even when Breckon took one of them, after a decent exchange of civilities with him. He could only saunter away and leave Mrs. Kenton to a little pang. "Tchk!" she made. "I'm sorry for him!" "So am I," said the judge. "But he will get over it only too soon, I'm afraid.
A load of building stone stalls, and people gather on the sidewalk to tell the teamster quietly and unostentatiously that he ought to have had more sense than to pile it on like that with the roads the way they are. Every time the cruel whip comes down and the horses dance under it, the women peering out of the front windows wince, and cluck "Tchk! Ain't it terrible? He ought to be arrested."
Philip felt miserable he was wont to try and cheer himself by suggesting that somebody had been "done." But that worry was dissolved by the enchantment of Yaverland's answer. He hadn't the slightest idea what he had paid for the villa. It happened this way. Tchk!" said Mr. Ellen hated him for that.
A sharp tchk started the horses, and, amid a chorus of shouts, good nights and Merry Christmases, and well-worn rustic pleasantries, the loaded pung slid forward from the light into the great, ghost-white gloom beyond.
A faint, mixed perfume of violet sachet and fricasseed chicken attended her. "Well, as you were saying, Ralph?" she suggested. "Oh, I was just tracing a little parallel between Hatboro' and Sheol," replied her husband. Mrs. Putney made a tchk of humorous patience, and laughed toward Annie for sympathy. "Well, then, I guess you needn't go on. Tea's ready. Shall we wait for the doctor?"
The orangery, which was at the other end, led by a covered way to the outhouses of the château. The Marquis, to amuse the young woman, took her to see the stables. Above the basket-shaped racks porcelain slabs bore the names of the horses in black letters. Each animal in its stall whisked its tail when any one went near and said "Tchk! tchk!"
