Simmons, is keeping you quite busy," remarked Jennie slyly, as she turned away. It was a fact that Ruth and Tom enjoyed each others' company. But Helen need not have been even a wee bit jealous. To tell the truth, she did not like to "get all mussed up," as she expressed it, by going fishing. To Ruth the adventure was a glad relief from worriment.
Ann Walden was past any earthly worriment, and Sally Taber could not understand then, or ever, the soul-hurt little Cynthia had received. "It's good friends now and always, little Cyn?"

"I may not have lost flesh, but my worriment of mind for the last few hours has been awful," replied the teamster, with a grin of satisfaction at his escape. "A few hours' sleep will restore you," cried the lieutenant, pleasantly. By this time the police had extinguished the fire, which was burning too brightly for safety.

Yet the gnawing worriment about her father was in her mind continually. It was an effort for her to be lively and cheerful when the fate of Mr. Broxton Day was so uncertain. Her more thoughtful comrades realized the girl's secret feelings.
We were worried by the appearance of the wound, like a long, deep scratch, on Jack's face, but, of course, we said nothing about our worriment to him.
