"They can't scare her, bless her heart!" "Souls have muscles, the same as bodies do, and they need exercise," agreed Bruce thoughtfully. "I know lots of fellows who are failures through having too much money. It's a dangerous thing to let your soul get seedy." "Do you think that someone has stolen the stick, Maurice?" said the major. "Someone from outside, I mean.".
