Wow! but the fancy sets your blood to bubbling and your pulse to swinging in rhythm with the long surges that leap about Minot's and froth white over Chest ledge and the Willies, that come on to drown the inner Osher rocks in exultant whirlpools and fluff the loose stones of the beach into a foam that ripples over the breakwater into the road that snuggles behind it.
He it was who beat the Phillies gave the Quaker bugs the willies he it was who saved our bacon in that 'leven-inning game!" Then we crowded round the pitcher, making that great man the richer by a ton of adulation, in a red-hot fervor flung; and the poet, in a pickle, mused upon the false and fickle plaudits of the heartless rabble, till the dinner gong was rung!
" remarked Mr. Temple Barholm. He gave a moment to reflection, and then cheered up immensely. "I'll tell you how we'll fix it. You come up into my room and bring your tatting or read a newspaper while I dress." He openly chuckled. "Holy smoke! I've GOT to put on my shirt and swear at my collar- buttons myself. If I'm in for having a trained nurse do it for me, it'll give me the Willies.
Luckily most people had the willies so badly after the first shot that they couldn't swear what sort of noise they had heard. It's a hard job, too, for an amateur to tell what direction a sound comes from, when his eyes haven't helped his ears. If Vandyke hadn't put a stop to any danger of return shots, the fat would have been in the fire for us.
If it doesn't, there'll be a bust up that may end in fitting out a high-toned promoter or so in a striped yellow-and-black Jersey suit and set him to breaking rocks or playing with oakum. I'll tell you, poor old Palliser gets the Willies sometimes after he's read his mail. He turns the color of ecru baby Irish.
"Oh, he is a very particular friend; she has letters from him every little while." "What Mr. Sullivan?" asked Belle. "Do you know his Christian name?" "I suppose it's William," said Fanny. "Miss Emily always calls the birds little Willies." "Belle!" exclaimed Kitty, "that's your William Sullivan." "What a favourite man he seems to be!" said Mr.
When I were a mere boy, fellow-pirates, I had but one ambition, due to my readin', which was confined to stories of a Sunday-school nater to become somethin' different from the little Willies an' the clever Tommies what I read about therein. They was all good, an' they went to their reward too soon in life for me, who even in them days regarded death as a stuffy an' unpleasant diversion.
"Somebody ought to go down and rap Putnam on the coco with a big heavy club!" growled Collingwood. "He should have made the change long ago. The Harvard Willies have been piling up something every inning." Down on the visitors' bench Merriwell was seen to peel off, while Gordon was talking rather excitedly to Burnham Putnam.
Stud had not thought that a girl's eyes could be so blue. It almost gave him the "Willies", their remote, peculiar sky-glow, as if afar afar they were seeing things. "What!" she gasped again, while that vivid glow faded, became bluish, blank, the tint of "Moonshine" of a strange, wild, nondescript dream. Moonshine that seemed flooding her whole being!
But before he died he'd pulled his gun and put three bullets into the man that killed him." "I don't like fightin'," Mary protested. "It makes me nervous. Bert gives me the willies the way he's always lookin' for trouble. There ain't no sense in it." "And I wouldn't give a snap of my fingers for a man without fighting spirit," Saxon answered.
