And they nailed a sign on it and put put on put on it sacred to the m-e-m-o-r-y of fourteen y-a-r-d-s of three-ply car -pet containing all that was m-o-r-t-a-l of of W-i-l-l-i-a-m W-h-e Jim Blaine had been growing gradually drowsy and drowsier his head nodded, once, twice, three times dropped peacefully upon his breast, and he fell tranquilly asleep.
My feelings were hurt, not the less so that I knew that the large cloth which covered the middle of the floor, and which the women call a bocking, had been bought and nailed down there, after a solemn family council, as the best means of concealing the too evident darns which years of good cheer had made needful in our stanch old household friend, the three-ply carpet, made in those days when to be a three-ply was a pledge of continuance and service.
There is nothing in royal courts equal to it; rank is exactly settled, and the same individuals always have the precedence. You know that at Windsor Castle, if the Royal Three-Ply Silver Stick should happen to get in front of the Most Royal Double-and-Twisted Golden Rod, when the court is going in to dinner, something so dreadful would happen that we don't dare to think of it.
I wish you could take her in hand everywhere. If you boarded at our house" "I shouldn't," interrupted Bel, decisively. "Not under any circumstances, from what you tell of it." "That's all very well to say now; you're in clover, comparatively. 'Chaters' and real tea, and a three-ply carpet!"

"I say," he said, excitedly, "I've been cross-examining that rascal, Ike, and I've found out who smuggled the whiskey to him." "Who was it?" Madge and Frank cried almost in unison. "That double-distilled, three-ply scoundrel, Horace Holton," said the Colonel, angrily. "Holton!" Frank exclaimed. "I wouldn't have believed it!" "I would," Madge commented. "I'll find him and settle with him for it!"
I came to Chicago from Beloit, Wisconsin, because I thought that little town was a lonesome hole for a vivacious creature like me. Lonesome! Listen while I laugh a low mirthless laugh. I didn't know anything about the three-ply, double-barreled, extra heavy brand of lonesomeness that a big town like this can deal out. Talk about your desert wastes! They're sociable and snug compared to this.
Such patterns as are needed should be made by the children themselves. Ready-made patterns will produce better proportioned animals, but more dependent, less observant children also. =Realistic Animals in Three-ply Wood.= Secure necessary items of measurement and decide upon scale. One inch for each foot is best for younger children.
"Why, it's perfectly clear," returned the Idiot, with a conciliating smile as he prepared to depart. "You both know so much that isn't so, that I rather rely on you to fill up." A new boarder had joined the circle about Mrs. Pedagog's breakfast-table. He had what the Idiot called a three-ply name which was Richard Henderson Warren and he was by profession a poet.
