"I am just come from him, and I'm going back to him with the wire; I'll show the way with pleasure; he is the best-natured lad in the world; he is mending my dulcimer; he deserves to be a great gentleman, and I thought he was not what he seemed," continued the little boy, as he walked on, scarcely able to keep before Mad. de Rosier.
Assuredly the Americans are the best-natured people on earth! Here was a man whose house was nearly tumbling down about his ears always bating the principle in architecture just named and he could smile as Nero may be supposed to have done when fiddling over the conflagration of Rome. "But vhy might de vhittler vhittle down your house?"
Palmet, best-natured of men, though generally prompted by some of his peculiar motives, dismounted from his horse, leaving him to Beauchamp, that he might conduct Mr. Lydiard to the station, and perhaps hear a word of Miss Denham: at any rate be able to form a guess as to the secret of that art of his, which had in the space of an hour restored a happy and luminous vivacity to the languid Mrs.
As suggested for a pop-corn party, the kitchen or dining-room is the best place in which to give a party of this kind. It may be decorated to look well, and the children doubtless would enjoy their play here more than in the parlor. This may be of dolls or real babies. You can borrow the babies for the occasion. A committee decides which is the handsomest baby, which the best-natured, etc.
The discussion of the morning, the silent menace and defiance of the voyage to Laulii, might have set the best-natured by the ears.

The English consul introduced his colleagues, who shook hands.
I jes' nachelly can't stand bein' spoke cross to. It riles me all up." "I don't believe there will be any trouble on that score," said Patty, laughing. "My father and I are the best-natured people in the world." "I believe yo', missy; an' dat's why I wants to come." "There will be another servant, Mancy," said Aunt Alice; "a young girl who will be a waitress.
I was horribly indignant with you as, indeed, I am still for not having told me anything about it; but directly I got home I telegraphed to Polly Cobb, as the best-natured girl I knew at Mauleverer, asking where you were, and why you had left. I had such a letter from her next day spelling bad, but full of kind feeling giving me a full account of the row, and old Pew's detestable conduct.
On the opposite side of the House, among the Democrats, is the seat of John A. Bingham, who now returns to Congress after an absence of one term, whom his friends describe as the "best-natured and crossest-looking man in the House." James Brooks, most plausible and best-natured of Democrats, notwithstanding the inroads of the Republicans, sturdily keeps his seat near the main aisle.
An air, a tone of voice, a composure of countenance to mildness and softness, which are all easily acquired, do the business: and without further examination, and possibly with the contrary qualities, that man is reckoned the gentlest, the modestest, and the best-natured man alive.
After in the quickest way shedding overcoat and shawl, we confronted the audience, and with our head yet swimming from the motion of the rail-train, we accosted the people many of whom had been waiting since seven o'clock' with the words, "Long-suffering but patient ladies and gentlemen, you are the best-natured audience I ever saw."
