It DOES matter whether we're good an' kind an' tell the truth an' shame the devil; but it DOESN'T matter whether we have ter live on the West Side an' eat dinner nights instead of noons, an' not eat cookies any of the time in the house, see?" "Good for you, Benny, and good for Aunt Maggie!" laughed Mr. Smith suddenly. "Aunt Maggie? Oh, you don't know Aunt Maggie, yet.
They neither saw nor heard me; I leaned against the doorway to see the pretty picture at my ease. The children, Sam and Benny, sat all hunched up, scowling over their books. Close to a fluted pillar, Dorothy Varick reclined in a chair, embroidering her initials on a pair of white silk hose, using the Rosemary stitch.
"And peace has reigned ever since?" asked the boy, still looking at the far-off sky through the branches overhead. "Peace has reigned ever since," replied Queetah. "The Mohawks and the palefaces are brothers, under one law. That was the last Avenging Knife. It is Canadian history." The Signal Code Ever since Benny Ellis had been a little bit of a shaver he had played at "railroad."
Benny Ellison, chuckling to himself, passed the tree where Tim crouched, high above him. Almost within the shadow of it, he stopped and laughed heartily, as he glanced down at the big pickerel. "It's a bird," he cried. "Shot it in a tree what luck!" Not until he had gone some distance did Little Tim emerge from hiding, scramble to the ground and follow.
She'd plunge round this curve right into it." Then Benny Ellis went white. "Who's got a watch?" he asked very quietly. "My Ingersoll says five-fifteen, and she's right, too," replied Joe McKenzie. Benny gulped; he seemed to find a difficulty in speaking, but the words finally came.
Like a pair of chipmunks they hopped from tree to tree, being careful to keep well in the shadow of one before risking a new position behind another. "Just like shadow tag," Benny made chance to whisper. "Gee, Sis, this is some little scouting." "Better than your Boy Scouts' games, isn't it, Benny?"
An American will say of his chief executive, "Yes, the President has a great deal of taste and all of it bad." A current piece of doggerel when I was in Washington ran thus: "Benny runs the White House, Levi keeps a bar, Johnny runs a Sunday School And, damme, there you are!" The gentlemen named are the then President, Mr. Harrison; the Vice-President, Mr.
They sung Old Hundred, and Coronation, and Lenox, and Cambridge. Now our friend, Colonel Connor, would lead off in a rollicking soldiers' song; then our chaplain would follow with "Benny Havens, Oh!" and all would join in the chorus.

But some of the boys delighted to "pick" at Benny Frank, who would have made a good Quaker. Jim sometimes felt quite "mad" with him. Lily did not seem to get along very rapidly with her intimacy.
My knowledge and my experience had gone begging for exactly three months when I heard of Benny, and hurried round to his flat off Russell Square, "just the chap for you," they said at the garage. I thought so, too, when I saw him. It was a fine flat, upon my word, and filled up with enough fal-de-lals to please a duchess from the Gaiety.
