On these occasions the spider-monkey turns its hind-feet inwards, and thus walks on the outer sides, while the fore-paws are twisted outward; thus throwing the whole of its weight upon their inner edges.

"Mind yer ain business," retorted Ebie, who could think of nothing else to say. Down below daft Jock Gordon, with some dim appropriateness was beginning his elricht croon of "The devil sat on his ain lum-tap, Hech how black and reeky "

He also wished she were not dressed like a Quaker's wife. The stiff, grey poplin fitted like a glove the pretty curves of Lady Mary's slender figure, but it lacked distinction, and appropriateness, to John's fastidious eye. Then he reproached himself vehemently for allowing his thoughts to dwell on such trifles at such a moment.
