"I'll tell some ob de udder men," offered the porter. "We often has t' pick up lost little ones an' take 'em to de waitin' room. Ef yo' doan't find yo' tots yo'se'f, stop in dere." "I will," said Mr. Bobbsey, and he was about to walk on when the porter called to him: "Heah comes a light-haired, blue-eyed gal now, an' she's runnin' like she's in a hurry. Maybe she's yo'rs." Mr.
Well, off we went with a rush that made our ears sing, the little car humming like a top. When we were more than two-thirds down and going like the wind I saw a nurse-girl near the bottom pushing a baby in a baby carriage and coming uphill, with two lithe tots in red dresses walking on either side of her.
He did look that way more or less at all times, having one of these long, sad moustaches and a kind of a bit-into face. This night he looked worse than usual. I thought the hellhounds of the law from Idaho might of took up his winding trail; but no. It was the rosy-cheeked tots of Mr. and Mrs. Bert Glasgow that had sent him out into the night.
You know better than I if she's right, and if you ever can have her." Mark went back to his room. On his table lay a note. He opened it and read: "My dear Mark: The Bishop is coming this morning to confirm the little class of tots who received their First Holy Communion last Sunday. His Lordship is a charming man. I'm sure you would like to meet him. Come up and take dinner with us at noon.
The man was seated in his hut alone, staring at the floor and pulling his long black beard with hands rough from toiling at the walls. He was drinking also, stiff tots of rum and water, but the fiery liquor seemed to bring him no comfort. As he drank, he thought. He was determined to get possession of Rachel; that desire had become a madness with him. He could never abandon it while he lived.
The two flaxen-haired tots were looking down the long platform, into the gloom of the long tunnel of the subway. "Aren't they funny, Freddie?" asked Flossie. "Yep, awfully funny," was Freddie's answer. "What's funny?" asked Bert, wishing he could see something at which to laugh. "Those red and green lights down the track," explained Freddie. "They blink so funny and come up and go out "
Holiday suddenly; "that's right!" The little tots, very much interested and startled, faced about, but Alice looked like a little reproving angel. "Oh!" she said, climbing out of the seat, "I must speak with you first," Mr. Holiday was actually surprised; but he went aside with the child, where the tots could not hear.
The job was not an easy one because she had two little tots, her brother Jules and her sister Henriette, aged three and five, to watch all day long while sweeping and cleaning. Ever since Bijard had killed his wife with a kick in the stomach, Lalie had become the little mother of them all.
Bobbsey, "Flossie and Freddie have gone." "Gone? Gone where?" Mr. Bobbsey asked, "That's it I can't say," answered Mrs. Bobbsey. "The last I saw of them was when the auto stopped." "I saw the two little tots climb down off the rear steps of the car," said the man who had wanted to "stretch his legs." "They seemed to be going after something," he added.
The beggars were the most objectionable feature of the city; they persisted in following visitors and it was almost impossible to drive them away. When rid of one lot, others soon took their place. Repulsive cripples insisted on calling attention to their deformities; sore-eyed children clamored for assistance; and little tots with dirty, fly-covered faces, shrilly prattled "Backsheesh."
