And so that there young 'ooman's been up there a matter o' three-four days, ain't she?" "I tink so," assented Philippe. "D'ye know who she is?" asked Mrs. Kilrea, a severe looking and angular woman. "Sure, heem gal is friend o' Hugo," answered the Frenchman, simply. "Mebbe you better no go to-day. Hugo heem seek. I got to 'urry, so good-by."
"Nor I cayn't prove I went out to Dick Grein's place in that three-four hours not accounted for." "Anyhow, you can show where you got the ten thousand dollars you paid the bank," said Bob hopefully. A moment of silence; then Crawford spoke. "No, son, I cayn't tell that either." Faint and breathless with suspense, Joyce looked at her father with dilated eyes. "Why not?"
"'But it is very unusual to construct a measure in that way. For there was a seeming confusion of three-four time with six-eight time. "'It is a liberty I permit myself, was the swift reply. "In the last bar, which did not appear to be filled satisfactorily, the composer directed the insertion of a figure 2.
"Did you stay here three-four days like I told you to that time a few weeks ago? And was Jack Harpe most Gawd-awful hot under the collar when you did see him final? And if so, what happened?"

Reames," he said heavily, "these fellas've gone near crazy about governors an' reducing valves an' such. They're inventin' ways to use 'em on machines I don't make head or tail of. We got three-four hundred men loose from machines already, an' they're turnin' out these steam guns as soon as you check up. There'll be more loose by night. I had 'em spray some castin's for another Tube, too.
His timid soul is bent on participating in the deviltries for which Vienna is famous. His blood is thumping through his arteries in three-four time. His mind is inflamed by such strophes as "Es giebt nur a Kaiserstadt; es giebt nur a Wien" and "Immer luste, fesch und munter, und der Wiener geht nit unter." But he is brought gradually to the realisation that something is amiss.
Jest three-four hunderd pounds o' gold settin' there in them four packs. Hit hain't much, but hit'll help some." Bridger stooped and uncovered the kyacks, unbuckled the cover straps. "Hit's a true fack!" he exclaimed. "Gold! Ef hit hain't, I'm a putrified liar, an' that's all I got to say!"

Mrs. Gilbert had a further idea something about being glad they'd come, anyhow, even if they'd only seen an old lady 'way too old to flirt with them. Anthony and Dick evidently considered this a sly sally, for they laughed one bar in three-four time.
He would lay down a domino before the boy a five-four, for example. He would require the boy to tell him the combined number at once, without allowing him to stop to count the spots, one by one. "Nine" the boy would answer after a moment's hesitation. Then another domino, a three-four, would be added. "That makes sixteen," cried the boy. Two dominoes at a time was the second day's task.
Just four straight steps as if you were walking down the street. That's it! One-two-three-four! Don't look at me. Look at my feet. And a one-two three-four." Red-faced, they were. Very earnest. Pathetically eager and docile. Weeks of drilling had taught them to obey commands.
