In the evening I saw the Nāther, and said to him expecting he would mention it to the Rais, "See that soldier lying on the stone-bench; he is sick, and has nothing to eat." The Nāther. "Yes, he is ill." I. "But he has nothing to eat; can't you get him something to eat?" The Nāther, "Pooh, he must die."

Temple appeared uncertain, no uncommon thing with him; then, going to set his emptied glass down he put an elbow on the mantel, dropped his head, and spoke in a low, mumbling voice: "The game? It's what it always was, Terry girl; what it always will be. The game of the ear of corn and the millstones; the game of the unfortunate under the iron heel." "Unfortunate!" cried Terry in disgust. "Pooh!"

If he ever happened to gaze for an instant at the gold-tinted clouds of sunset, he wished that they were real gold and that they could be squeezed safely into his strong box. When little Marygold ran to meet him with a bunch of buttercups and dandelions, he used to say, "Pooh, pooh, child! If these flowers were as golden as they look, they would be worth the plucking!"

"I don't go into any woods with you," laughed the other; "not after last night, my friend. But I will talk low; that's no more than fair; I don't want to put you into any other man's power, especially if you have the money." "Wattles," Frederick's tone was broken, almost unintelligible, "what do you mean by your allusion to last night? Have you dared to connect me " "Pooh!

"She has refused me," he said simply. The little doctor, after an incredulous stare, began chattering with wrath. "Refused you! Pah! Pooh! That's nothing! That signifies absolutely nothing! It's meaningless! It's a detail. You get well do you hear? You go and get well; then try it again! Then you'll see!

Let the question of the money be settled first. Have I convinced your obstinacy? have I shown you that your temper will not let you help yourself? "Pooh! It's easy enough to grumble at ME. Say what is to be done that's a little harder." "Is it? Bah! This is what is to be done: You give up all direction in the business from to-night you leave it for the future in my hands only.

"Betty, Betty," said her companion, "do not speak so disreverently of the evil spirit; he is ever at hand, and will owe you a grudge, for your language." "Pooh! if he has any bowels at all, he won't mind a fillip or two from a poor lone woman; I'm sure no other Christian would."

"Over large, sir!" says my lady, also regarding it, and with her head at a critical angle, "it could never be called an elegant hand, could it?" "Elegant!" snorted the Captain, "I say pooh! I say pish! Sir, you must come in and sup with us, my house is near by. Good English beef and ale, sir."

"Pooh pooh, Dick, this is talking more like a poet than a seaman. If only one-half the sovereigns who deserve to be execrated had their names erased, the list of even our English kings would be rather short; and some countries would be without historical kings at all.

"Swear examinations against a cat, indeed! pooh! pooh!" "My dear sir," said Murtough, "remember this is a fair story, and that the country all around here is full of enchantment. As I was telling you, Tom went off to swear examinations." "Ay, ay!" shouted all but Goggins; "go on with the story."
