Some have sunk into a deplorable state of utter languishment, from the circumstance of being deprived of the means of pursuing their beloved study, as in the case of the chemist BERGMAN. His friends, to gain him over to the more lucrative professions, deprived him of his books of natural history; a plan which nearly proved fatal to the youth, who with declining health quitted the university.
Every appearance a riot; stage-door Johns standing on their heads; members of our best families dying to lead her to the altar; under five-year contract with Bergman, and refuses to marry until the time's up. Say, Bergman can certainly pick 'em, can't he? I'll frame it for a special cop at the back door, detailed to hold off the matrimony squad of society youths, if you can use it."
"Three boys were drowned skating during the lunch hours," continued Bergman breathlessly. "Two were in my class Hill and Samson, you know. The third, Dahlin, was in your own class." "Is Dahlin dead?" asked Keith blankly. The thing seemed impossible to him.
Encounters with a variety of celebrities since then have proved no whit more thrilling than the discovery that our host, Jerry South of Mountain Home, was lieutenant-governor of Arkansas; and though I have roamed in five nations, no food that I ever have tasted so nearly approaches that of the gods as the strawberry shortcake we ate in Bergman.
You boys certainly worked fast, and I believe the 'devouring element, as the poets call it, will take a back seat, now that we have such an efficient department to handle our two chemical engines." "Hurrah for Lakeville!" yelled half a hundred voices. "Three cheers for Mr. Bergman!" shouted others.
"And I want to say that if there is going to be any feeling over the matter I'd rather not have it," went on Bert. "We boys will continue our own department and " "You'll do nothing of the kind," interrupted Mr. Bergman. "Lakeville is going to take a step forward, and you boys are the best persons to help her." "I don't want to take the place, and feel that there is jealousy," added Herbert.
Bergman had arranged with the assistance of Bert and Vincent, and the chiefs of some nearby departments. In order that there would be protection to Lakeville, in case a fire should occur during the picnic, Constable Stickler was to be left on guard part of the day, and a man would relieve him at a certain hour, so that the old official might see part of the fun.
This German savant had dwelt a week in these lonely places, patiently compiling a dictionary of their tongue, which, when it was printed, he had sent to the Capo. I am magnanimous enough to give the name of his book, that the curious may buy it if they like. It is called "Johann Andreas Schweller's Cimbrisches Wörterbuch. Joseph Bergman. Vienna, 1855."
She owns a piece of this show, and the theater belongs to the estate, so you'll just have to go." "Mercy! Mrs. Thompson-Bellaire, the college-boy's giddy godmother," Lilas mocked. "I suppose she's out slumming, with her kindergarten class." Slosson frowned at this levity. "Will you go?" he inquired. "Yes or no?" "Um-m I'll have to say 'yes, it seems." "Good. I'll 'phone Bergman."
"Speaking of the weary Wall Street workers, there will be a dozen of our ribbon-winners at that Hammon supper to-night. Twelve 'Bergman Beauties. Twelve; count 'em! Any time you want to pull off a classy party for some of your bachelor friends let me know, and I'll supply the dames at one hundred dollars a head and guarantee their manners.
