He seemed satisfied with Phil's answer to his query as to what he was doing in those parts, when Phil told them he was camping there for a short time, preparatory to a fishing expedition. Supper over, Phil walked over to one of the tables, where he found a week-old Bangor paper, and a Canadian French paper.
"Would you mind picking out one spot and staying on it?" asked the skipper, at which the torpedo man took his camp-stool, picked out his one spot, and planted himself on it, and piously read the stock-market quotations of a week-old newspaper for the rest of the run. While this hour run full speed, submerged was in progress, a tickling in our throats set most of us to coughing.
The baby is a beast a very soft, tender, caressive beast, a beast full of promise, a beast with the germ of an angel, but a beast still. A week-old baby gives no more sign of intelligence, of love, or ambition, or hope, or fear, or passion, or purpose, than a week-old monkey, and is not half so frisky and funny. In fact, it is a puling, scowling, wretched, dismal, desperate-looking animal.
How long have you been here?" "Walk! I say! Yes, walk! Put your arm here, across my shoulder, so. You can walk as well as a week-old baby. You've lost blood enough to kill a man." So Larry carried him in spite of himself, and laid him in his bunk. There he stood, panting, and looking down on him. "You're heavier by a few pounds than when I toted you down that trail last fall."

She was yawningly thinking of bed, when Moran came into the room. "Oh, are you and father through at last?" "Yes," he answered, smiling. "That is, we're through upstairs.
"Deserve nothing. You haven't the sense to go in when it rains, Thomas Hardin, and a week-old kitten would beat you for gumption. But for all that, you're a long sight more of a catch than most men." This impassioned tribute apparently left Thomas dumb. Mrs. Gibson followed up her advantage.
The bells of Luis's mule jingled and the pack train filed after the warning note. Armstrong, waved a good-bye and took his place at the tail of the procession. Up the narrow street they turned, and passed the two-story wooden Hotel Ingles, where Ives and Dawson and Richards and the rest of the chaps were dawdling on the broad piazza, reading week-old newspapers.
With the utmost enthusiasm Miss Brodie entered into his admiration of them all, from the lordly prize tusker to the great mother lying broadside on in grunting and supreme content, every grunt eloquent of happiness and maternal love and pride, to allow her week-old brood to prod and punch her luxuriant dugs for their breakfast.
I had washed in the Jihun when we bivouacked, but had not shaved; later on, my scalp had bled anew, so that in addition to unruly hair tousled and matted with dry blood I had a week-old beard to help make me look like a graveyard ghoul. "I beg pardon!" I said simply, handing her the mirror back.
He would not pilfer the hours it would take to ride twenty miles and back again, even to see Billy Louise; which proves that he was no moral weakling, whatever else he might be. Then, in April, he left Junkins and drove home a nice little bunch of ten cows and a two-year-old and two yearlings. One of the cows had a week-old calf, and there would be more before long.
