I jumped up, and saying 'I'll be back in a minute, ran down to the ship and so into the engine room, my heart in my mouth. It was half-past eleven! But there was nothing wrong. I looked at the gauge-glasses on the boilers, peered into the bilges, and found the fireman at his post in the stokehold. And then I took the old washer and went back to my friend in the fez.
Conversation threw them out of their stride, as it did this time, compelling Martin to miss a stroke of his iron and to make two extra motions before he caught his stride again. On Friday morning the washer ran. Twice a week they had to put through hotel linen, the sheets, pillow-slips, spreads, table-cloths, and napkins. This finished, they buckled down to "fancy starch."
"Honestly, Miss Maggie, one of the best things about this Blaisdell money, in my eyes, is that it may give you a little rest from being chief cook and bottle washer and head nurse combined, on tap for any minute. But, say, that woman WILL spend some of that money, won't she?" Miss Maggie smiled significantly. "I think she will.
The ET's tone of voice was nurturing in spite of her words. "I don't feel well." "You've been overtaken by the mundane. Look out of the window at the volant clouds.

"When you get your factory going I wish you'd send a salesman to my head supply man," requested Mort Washer. "I'll buy them by the ton, and every guest who comes into one of my hotels will find a fresh comb in an aseptic wrapper by the side of his individual soap." "That will be up to Bruce," Johnny informed him. "Bruce intends to manufacture this device at his papier-mache factory."
An asbestos washer is interposed between the tube at each end and the metal it bears against, thus making a more or less flexible joint. A thumb screw is arranged at the outside end of the tube, by means of which pressure can be applied to clamp it up between the washers to the desired extent. Some care has to be exercised in adjusting this form of tube for running.
"You infernal scoundrel, I believe you have them," he decided as Washer folded his cards into the palm of his hand again. Courtney turned for a careful inspection of the colonel.

Mr. Slosher turned and smiled. "Hello, Mr. Gamble!" he greeted him, while Mrs. Slosher gave him a bright and cheery little nod. "I played old-fashioned army poker with Colonel Bouncer and Ben Courtney and Mort Washer and Joe Close last night and the old robbers skinned me out of thirty-two dollars. They spoke of you during the game and I guess you could get backing to any amount in that crowd."
