"I made a most horrific blunder, didn't I, Mr. Studley? I called him a bounder!" Dinah looked at him witheringly. "You would!" she said. "Well, I hope you apologized." Billy stuck out his tongue at her. "I didn't then!" he returned, and skated elegantly away on one leg. "Billy," remarked Dinah dispassionately, "is not really such a horrid little beast as he seems."
One is as much as you can manage now." She spoke witheringly. "I give you one more chance." "More than I can manage. You know Dick will get drunk " "Not unless you make him.

Jock and Sandy, who had stood by, green with envy, clapped their hands over their mouths and danced with mirth. "It looks easy," said poor Jean mournfully, "but maybe I'd best stick to the skimmer when I fish."

"Rather different from the last tramp we took over this prairie," said Jane, "but as a thriller you can't beat midnight moonlight." "Not that I'd care to," Dozia answered witheringly. "I can't see that the adventure 'got us anywhere' as brother Tom would say. I haven't any brother, you know, Jane dear, but it always sounds better to blame one's slang on him, don't you think?"
He had orders from me to get her and damn the cost and he fulfilled his orders." "A comedy of errors, truly!" Mr. Skinner observed witheringly.
