This episode supplied the boys with what they had wanted something to take up their attention till dinner-time, which Harry, by making a charge into the kitchen, found to be in the process of what Mrs Cook termed "dishing up;" so they entered the house, where they found Papa just going to relieve himself of a little of the black which clung to him; and soon afterwards, at dinner, they heard all that had been done to make the best of the existing state of affairs.
Duncan had scarcely finished the dishing up of the unsavory corned beef, the only merit of which was that it was sufficiently cooked, when a dispatch came to him from the New York bankers whom he had left in charge of the company's interests in the financial capital. They telegraphed: Tandy reports that you have completely failed to build across county line.
"Dear me, Sam, is that you?" she cried out in a voice closely resembling his in its cheery accents, although more musical by reason of its feminine ring; "I'm just dishing up, and dinner'll be ready as soon as the pasty's done." Her brother did not apparently pay any attention to this highly important announcement for the moment. "Come here, Jane," he said, "I've brought home a visitor."
'All the same, Daddy, I've tasted Welsh rabbit before, said David drily, putting on his hat. 'I scorn your remark, sir. It argues a poorly furnished mind. Show me anything new in this used-up world, eh? but for the name and the dishing up Well, good-bye, Davy, and good luck to you!

In dishing the meat, remove the wooden skewers and substitute plated or silver ones.
Blyth's head, in quick succession for young Thorpe to catch. "What do you think of our way of dishing up potatoes in Kirk Street?" asked Zack in great triumph. "It's a little sudden when you're not used to it," stammered Valentine, ducking his head as each edible missile flew over him "but it's free and easy it's delightfully free and easy." "Ready there with your plates.
He seemed mighty tickled about it, and I guess he made up his mind then to go ahead and get married." "Come to supper," cried Sylvia, in a harsh voice, from the next room, and the two men went out at once and took their seats at the table. Rose's and Horace's places were vacant. "I'd like to know what they think," said Sylvia, dishing up the baked beans. "They can eat the corn cold.
I heard her sobs through the darkness. "This was The Power of Love," Ojen said. Everybody listened attentively; Milde sat with open mouth. "Well what more?" he asked, evidently thinking there must be a climax yet to come. "Is that all? But Heaven preserve us, man, what is it all about? No; the so-called poetry you young writers are dishing out nowadays I call it arrant rot!"
