"We-ell, she's showin' some signs uh clearin' up to-night," Applehead stated with careful judgment, because he felt that Luck's question had much to do with Luck's plans, and was not a mere conversational bait. "Wind, she's shiftin', er was, when I come in to supper. She shore come down like all git-out ever since she started, and I calc'late she's about stormed out.
"We-ell, Doctor " He seemed to stick here. Mr. Ogden handsomely assisted him. "You've said the word yourself, Doctor. It's the competition, don't you see? The trial of strength by no matter what test." "Yes," said Miss Wood, unexpectedly. "And it wasn't that George Washington couldn't tell a lie. He just wouldn't. I'm sure if he'd undertaken to he'd have told a much better one than Cornwall's."
"The man in gray," repeated Jennie, nodding her curly head vigorously. "Oh, dear! Do you suppose that can be possible?" Nancy demanded, finally. "You know I'm right," Jennie returned, firmly. "It it might be another man." "Two big men, who look important, and who both dress so peculiarly?" "We-ell!" "It's he, all right," declared Jennie, vigorously. "And he knows as much about you as Gordon does."
"I say, did my guv'nor really write this himself?" "More or less. Did you really come over for the meeting?" "Rather." His smile was wilful and engaging. "You are enthusiastic about the League." "Enthusiastic? We-ell, I can't say I know much about it. Of course, I know the sort of putrid tosh he'll sling at them, but what I want is to see him doing it."
"All right, pard; I was just aiming to make you come up looking mad. You did fine." Luck stopped to roll a smoke as though nothing had occurred but tiresome routine. Applehead looked down at him uncertainly. He looked at the Happy Family, saw them grinning, and gave a mollified chuckle. "We-ell, you was takin' a danged long chance, now I'm tellin' yuh, boy!" he warned.
"I don't want anybody to do their best by me only you, Daddy." "But you see, my dear, I couldn't leave you alone at home here. Certainly not with a woman like Mrs. Watkins." "We-ell!" "Why, she would be imposing upon you all the time. No, indeed. I feel that she is not the woman for our house, after all." "Oh, dear, Daddy! isn't it funny how many people there are in the world who don't just fit?"
'What have you been doing to this child, Phffibe? 'We-ell, Doctor, his eyes has been kind o' bad along back, the last week. I did cal'late to send for you before; but one o' the neighbors was in, and she said to put molasses and tobacco-juice in them. 'Thunder and turf! says I. 'What sa-ay? says Phoebe. ''N' then old Mis' Barker come in last night.
"We-ell, now, that there lady don't act like she's lost," Applehead declared, watching her intently as she came on. "Aims to git whar she's goin', if I'm any jedge of actions. An' she shore is hittin' fur here. Ain't been ary woman on this ranch in ten year, till Mrs. Green come t'other day."
"You noticed, then, that she was not quite herself?" Senator Warfield used his friendly, confidential tone on Jim. "We-ell yes, I did. I thought a ride would do her good, mebby. She's been sticking here on the job purty close. And Frank getting killed kinda upset her, I guess." "That's it that's what I was saying. Disordered nerves, which rest and proper medical care will soon remedy."
"We-ell " Having artfully led Belle to this point, Lance quite as artfully edged away from it. "You gave her all the chance you could. And she ought to be able to go on, if she wants to. I suppose old Scotty's human enough to get her something to play on." "Him? Human!" Tom shifted in his chair.
