Kit looked at the brightly-painted little canoe many times before the lunch was finished and Bet declared herself ready to go. The egg sandwiches and stuffed olives were eaten without much thought by Kit. Apple turnovers and fudge slipped down as if she were in a dream, for Kit's mind was racing ahead to the thrill of getting out on the Hudson in a boat.
Our present electoral system, with our big modern constituencies of thousands of voters, leads to huge turnovers of political power with a relatively small shifting of public opinion. It makes a mock of public opinion by caricature, and Parliament becomes the distorting mirror of the nation.
To confess the plain truth, I had discovered that, in spite of my bashfulness, I loved every single girl I had ever seen not even excepting good black Bess in my mother's kitchen, who concocted such admirable turnovers and seedcakes. But at that time, sooner than have acknowledged such a weakness, I would have been broiled alive. As I grew toward manhood, my bashfulness got no better.
I've been down to Polly Hopley's, and bought a lot of her turnovers and some sweet tuck. I want to send it up to you. Haven't you any string?" I made no reply. "Frank! I say: I know: tear up your handkerchiefs. I'll give you some of mine to make up. Tie the bits together so as to make a long string, and let it down. Frank!" "Go away, you miserable, cowardly sneak!"
Aunt Olivia reported that his mother was broken-hearted. We did not again ask to be released from work. Instead, we went at it with feverish zeal. If we worked hard there was less time for grief and grievious thoughts. We picked apples and dragged them to the granary doggedly. In the afternoon Aunt Janet brought us a lunch of apple turnovers; but we could not eat them.
The cook who just left went away because I asked her to make some apple turnovers. Some of the girls who are coming are very fond of them." "So am I," spoke Tom, with a smile. "Are you, indeed? Then, if the cook I hope to get now will make them, I'll invite you over to have some, and also meet my friends."
"Do you think I would have time to go home?" Marian asked anxiously. "They said they were in a great hurry." "What is the use of your going home? I can put you up a little lunch easy as not. Here's these cookies, and I've baked turnovers, too. There's a basket of nice good apples in the pantry; you can have one of those, and I'll whisk together some sandwiches in the shake of a sheep's tail."
"No turnovers this time," said the young inventor. "I came to wish you many happy returns of the day." "Oh, you remembered my birthday! How nice of you!" "And here is something else," added our hero, rather awkwardly, as he handed her the diamond pin. "Oh, Tom! This for me! Oh, it's too lovely it's far too much!" "It isn't half enough!" he declared, warmly. "Oh, what a large diamond!"
Mix together three eggs, one ounce of warmed butter, and two of fine cheese grated, and bake in small patty pans. Make a fine forcemeat of any cold meat, poultry, or fish, enclose it in a very rich puff paste, rolled out extremely thin. They may be made into balls or small triangular turnovers, or into long narrow ribbons; the edges must be pressed together, that they may not burst in frying.
And Captain Shadrach had announced his intention of bringing her, from the store, candy and bananas to go into the lunch basket with the turnovers and sandwiches and cake. And the Captain had that very day called her a good girl. If he only knew! There had been a flurry of excitement in the kitchen just after dinner. Mr.
