The individual, who was in perfect good-humour, did not appear to bear one word which Policeman X uttered, but nodded and waggled his grinning head at Strong, until his hat almost fell from his head over the area railings.
Mother begged daughter to be permitted to dust or make beds; Father suggested that he might rake the lawn. But Lulu waggled her stringy forefinger at them and bubbled, "No, no! What would the neighbors think? Don't you suppose that we can afford to have you dear old people take a rest? Why, Harris would be awfully angry if he saw you out puttering around, Father.
'Muffins?" and as she held out the plate she waggled the wrist of her other hand, and mimicked the cry of the muffin man. "Not until yesterday?" She began to excuse herself.

The girl whom "Billy" was waiting to meet! Rex was getting tired and hungry. Strong smiled a gentle, obstinate, tipsy smile and shook his head. "No, Recky, dear ol' fren' bes' fren' well, nev' min'. Can't tell girl's name; tha's her secret." "Don't be an ass, Billy quick, now, tell me the name." "Naughty, naughty!" quoted Billy again, and waggled his forefinger. "Danger hell fire!

And when you waggled your whip at them they grinned and waved their hands, and one of them shouted something meant to be jolly." "It just means, lovey," he answered, "that they made up their minds it was a beano after all, and that they'd got wind up about nothing.
