The listlessness of the people stood out in marked contrast to their sanguine outlook when the Siege was young, and when the folly of prophesying unless one knew remained not only, as it were, unsmoked but outside our pipes altogether. Still to pursue the metaphor our pretensions in the role of prophet had clearly ended in smoke. Happily, the disillusioning fog had come upon us by degrees.
From his coat pocket Dick took the letter Don Bartolomé had written to his son, and from his vest pocket a match. He twisted the envelope into a spill, lit one end, and found a cigarette. Very deliberately he puffed the cigarette to a glow, holding the letter in his fingers until it had burned to a black flake. This he dropped in the fireplace, and along with it the unsmoked cigarette.
Everybody knew everyone else, and things seemed to be solid forever. But now them plagued land fellows well, they've got a good cheek, is all I can say." And he emptied an unsmoked pipe of tobacco in his indignation. "But we are going to get after them," Cora declared. "We want to go slowly, and, if possible, find out what their intentions are.
If Old Spitfire keeps on the way she has to-day I shan't need much more. It would be a raw jest to be burned or swallowed up with a month's supply of unsmoked cigarettes on one. Cave getting shaky. Still, I think I'll stick there. As between being burned alive and buried alive, I'm for the respectable and time honoured fashion of interment.
But to Father Concha the sum represented five hundred cups of black coffee denied to himself in the evening at the cafe five hundred packets of cigarettes, so- called of Havana, unsmoked two new cassocks in the course of twenty years a hundred little gastronomic delights sternly resisted season after season. 'Not enough, your hundred pesetas, reverendo, not enough, laughed the man.
He rose to his feet; he threw his unsmoked cigarette into the grate and walked towards the door. Jimmy turned. "Here come back! Where are you going? Of all the bad-tempered beggars " His face was abashed; there was a sort of wavering in his voice. He moved a step forward to overtake his friend. Sangster looked back at him with biting contempt in his honest eyes. "I'm fed up with you," he said.
Compote of Pigeons. For any dish of pigeons except roast or broiled, wild birds may be used in place of tame. Their flavor is far finer, and if not perfectly young, which is the main objection to the use of wild birds, the preparation remedies the defect. Cut four ounces of lean unsmoked bacon into pieces, and fry five minutes.
The wife of Laki Mae was pregnant and wanted to eat meat, so she asked her husband to go out hunting. He brought in a porcupine, wild hens, kidyang, pig, and deer, and he placed all the meat on the tehi, to smoke it over fire, that it should keep. But the right hind leg of the porcupine was hung up by itself unsmoked, to be eaten next day. They had their evening meal and then went to sleep.
"From my earliest youth, when I used surreptitiously to remove the unsmoked ends of my father's cigars and break them up, and, in hiding, smoke them in an old clay pipe which I had presented to me by an ancient sea-captain of my acquaintance, I have been interested in tobacco in all forms, even including these self-same despised unsmoked ends; for they convey to my mind messages, sentiments, farces, comedies, and tragedies which to your minds would never become manifest through their agency."
A sufficient quantity of veal, of fat unsmoked bacon, and of bread panada must be chopped and pounded to make enough force-meat to stuff the pig in the proportion of one part bacon, two panada, and three of veal, seasoned with a teaspoonful of onion juice and two of powdered sage. The pig’s liver must have been boiled in stock, and cut in dice.
