I was only thinking how very nice it was for us, Judy and me, that we had such a genius for a sister.","Be virtuous and you'll be happy, but you won't have a good time," quotes Violet; "you should take to heart that latest of copy-book texts.",The ghost said, "It is a fearful thing that you have come here; it is very likely that you will never go away. Never before has there been a person here.","You've been reading novels," says Rodney, contemptuously.,Oh!，“Yes, sir! Absolutely!”，“‘You bet’ isn’t nice,” the child chid gently, and waited a moment before continuing. “My papa won’t let my mama work. He went to South America to get rich. When he comes back, he wrote in a letter to me, I shall be as rich as a princess.”，"Fell out o' a tree," he managed to say. "Struck my head on a limb."“Now, Mosey, you like the new teacher’s well’s I do, else why were you showin’ off before her, ridin’ Ladybird like mad.”

“Well, Moses,” queried his genial host at the supper table, “did the skating go pretty good to-day?”,"Boys," cried Billy in awed tones. "It's gone!","May I go with you?" asks he, anxiously. "These are lawless times, and I dare say Maloney's cabin will be full of roughs.

She was either a little brig or a brigantine—her after-sails were concealed; her burden was very small. The dusty and rusty complexion of her canvas neutralised the brilliance which most ships' sails shine with when the silver glory of the morning sun pours strong upon them. By half-past nine, three bells by the schooner's clock, the stranger was on the larboard-bow with her main topsail to the mast, and so close that it seemed almost possible to distinguish the faces of her people.,She is still wondering vaguely who he can be, when he breaks the silence.,Julia, resigning herself to despair, indulged in solitude the excess of her grief. A calamity, so dreadful as the present, had never before presented itself to her imagination.

Forgotten, for the moment, was old Scroggie's ghost and the buried treasure in this new something which promised mystery and adventure.,Patricia wriggled out from her warm nest reluctantly.
