A man, on being questioned, is immediately on his guard: and if once he supposes that, without any interest in his concerns, you only wish to set him a-talking, either he entertains you with lies, is silent, or, examining every word before he utters it, rather chooses to pass for a fool, than to be the dupe of your curiosity.

The three friends sought the bield of the low wall old Edinburgh boys remember well, and sometimes miss now, as they struggle with the stout west wind.... The third we all know. What has he not done for every one of us? Who else ever, except Shakespeare, so diverted mankind, entertained and entertains a world so liberally, so wholesomely?

Woodward," said Goodwin, "the truth is, my daughter entertains a strong prejudice against you in fact, a terror of you and under these circumstances, and considering, besides, her state of health, we could not think of permitting your visits, at least," he added, "until that prejudice be removed and her health restored if it ever shall be.

He is merely an agreeable acquaintance." "And Mr. Dabney?" "The same. He entertains me " "Mr. Lee Mr. Minor Ned Hunter " "What applies to one applies to all." "I am glad to hear it.

He is also very hospitable, and entertains at Berlin in a right royal fashion, his wealth, derived from the mines which he owns in the Hartz Mountains, enabling him to do so without hesitation on the score of expense.

The loss of sight has not dimmed his inquisitiveness any, however; nothing could do that, and he gets someone to lead him into my room, where he makes an exhaustive examination of the bicycle with his hands. A village luti entertains me during the evening with a dancing deer; a comical affair of wood, made to dance on a table by jerking a string.

I leans to the view, gents, that this yere corpse is constructed on the squar'. What do you-all think, Peets? "'I entertains ideas sim'lar, says Doc Peets.
