"Suppose it does, and you get hurt. What would your mother say?" "That's what Karl Hoffmann said," exclaimed Hugh. "Karl is usually right too," said Mr. Cook. "He takes so much responsibility about my personal affairs that really I don't know what I'd do without him." "He was afraid we'd get hurt," sniffed Bob. "Karl likes you," said his father. "He doesn't want anything to happen to you."
Let the Gordons alone they're decent young fellows, the both of 'em and come along o' me to England. That young English feller reckons we'd be as good as the Prince of Wales, very near. Will you come, Peggy?" It is the characteristic of great minds to think quickly, and act promptly. Peggy did both. "Mick!" she said, calling to her brother in a sharp, authoritative voice: "Mick!
Jenison can get the real facts before him. That means a pardon sure, kids. Say, Jenison's all right! He's the kind of a friend to have, he is. He never quit on Dick. Say, where's Ernie? We'd better put him wise." "It won't make any difference to Ernie now," said one of the rogues, wiping his wet brow with his hand. Blacky fell away with a great look of dread in his eyes. He understood.
That's what we are. We're altruists!" It was Jasper Kemp of the keen eyes and sturdy countenance who spoke. "And we've come here in brotherly love to exercise a little of that dynamic force of altruism you was talkin' about. We just thought we'd begin on you so's you could see that we got some works to go 'long with our faith."
"But see here, Merritt, whatever we are fast to is beginning to pick up speed pretty rapidly. Don't you think we'd better cut the line or try to haul in?" "Haul in! Not much!" exclaimed Tubby indignantly. "We'll just hang on till we tire him out, that's what we'll do, and then haul in."
Rusty the Blackbird laughed out loud at this suggestion. "Why," he said, "we'd stuff him so full of antidotes that he'd die anyhow. No, I think we'd better see Mr. Crane." "What could he do? He's no kind of a doctor," indignantly remarked Mrs. Phœbe Bird. "The idea of calling him in!"
"We used to play a game called 'Hulgul'. We'd play it in the cabins and sometimes with the white children. We'd hold hazelnuts in our hands. I'd say 'Hulgul' How many? You'd guess. If you hit it right, you'd get them all and it would be your turn to say 'Hulgul'. If you'd say 'Three! and I only had two, you'd have to give me another to make three.
Grail downstairs last night, and she asked if we'd go down and have tea to-day. I can't, because Mary's coming, but you might. And I'm sure he'd lend you something nice if you asked him. 'I don't think I durst. He always sits so quiet, and he's such a queer man. 'Yes, he is rather queer, but he speaks very kind. 'I'll see. But you mustn't speak so cross to me if I do wrong, Lyddy.
"Ah, but Rhoda was more than brave. She knew what to do. We'd have gone off the track and pitched over that wall probably, if it had depended on me to stop this old car," declared Nan generously. The girls from Lakeview Hall were not likely to forget their experience on the car for many a long day.
We'd come up the woods behind the house, and while Joe was foragin', I took are connoissance. The view was fust-rate, for the main part of it was a girl airin' beds on the roof of a stoop. Now, jest about that time, havin' a leisure spell, I'd begun to think of marryin', and took a look at all the girls I met, with an eye to business.
