The colonel looked thoughtfully into his glass, and remarked, as if to his own reflection therein, "Ain't many such men here nur nowhars else!" after which he drank the toast himself. "But that don't explain what Tarpaulin went fur," said the colonel, suddenly. "Yes, it does," said the exasperating Weasel, shutting his thin lips so tightly that it was hard to see where his mouth was.
"Brute!" muttered Ziffa inaudibly. "Oh! she werry sharp chile," returned Rais, "werry sharp got ears and eyes from the sole of hers head to de top of hers feets."

"Laurelly," the nurse hesitated, "I wouldn't name it to ye whilst ye was a-sufferin, but I jest cain't find the baby's clothes nowhars.

I kain't find ther key nowhars an' I mistrusts I left hit in ther door when I war weighin' up wheat this evening; I'll jest leave ther two of ye hyar fer a spell." Jerry rose obligingly to his feet.
Hudgers, who lived next door, "is orful stuck up sence they got the sudsin' of them surpluses." This animadversion was soon conveyed to Amarilly, who instantly and freely forgave the critic. "She's old and rheumatic," argued the little girl. "She can't git to go nowhars, and folks that is shut in too long spiles, jest like canned goods. Besides, her clock has stopped.
"Yes, Miss, Ise alluz t'ought Miss Zoe hab pretty manners and a pretty face," replied Aunt Phillis; "but dere is ladies what habn't none, an' doan' git pleased wid nuffin' nor nobody, an eayn't stan' no misery nowhars 'bout deirselves, but jes' keep frettin' and concessantly displainin' 'bout dis t'ing and dat, like dey hasn't got nuffin' to be thankful for."
