HeySpin a shock running through all my frame; nothing was to be seen, and He was soon at the “lodge of ample size” made the week before, not of “strong logs” but of old fence-rails and willow twigs. He wondered if the girls would be able to imagine it a “lodge,” or if May Nell and Jean, who were to come a little later, could fix it according to the poem.,Elinor shook her head. "To tell the truth, Miss Pat dear, I almost wish Bruce hadn't gotten me into the life and portrait classes without the regular term in the antique rooms. I shouldn't feel half so shivery about going in there and drawing from those big casts, for I know they are all more or less beginners there.",At the very depth of the Canyon Bob suddenly realized what the Reclamation Service had to contend with. It was places like this which needed feats of engineering skill to let people even get near to them, that the Service had to contend with. Nature was the Service’s foe. Its task was to subjugate her to its own ends. Of course this Canyon was too big; the desert land was too far away for any irrigation project to be thought of.,“If you find that the work is not as much fun as you expected, will you come back and tell me so? You won’t stick it out just as a matter of pride?”,"I think every one is to be pitied; and Jack more than most,—after dear Nicholas," she says, gently, with such a kindly glance at Violet as goes straight to that young woman's heart, and grows and blossoms there forever after.，The calm way in which the boys announced their feat forced Whiskers to believe what at first glance seemed to be a preposterous yarn.，Patricia, with her mind wholly on her own absorbing business, gave scant attention.，The Admiral took the letter, ran his eyes over it, and answered, returning the letter to Captain Acton: "It is.""But you have something on your mind, too. You have me. Why doesn't Jack go?"

"Now you are their friend forever," says Mona, in a pleased tone. "Once they do that, they mean to tell you they have adopted you. And they like very few people: so it is a compliment.",“Don’t worry me Mosey, this is a ’portant day,” then turning to Miss Gordon she added, “I’ll take ’sturtiums an’ larkspur an’ sweet peas an’ you’ll be ever so happy lookin’ at them.” A busy silence ensued.,All were silent for a little. Most of them had been more than once to San Francisco’s celebrated dealer in sweets.,"Och! Billy O'Shune can't ye whistle t' me,,"Walter Watland—what?","Why should it be strange?",The Admiral rose, and addressing her as though she were the consort of a king, said: "Madam, as the father of the person you speak of, I ask Almighty God, who is merciful and knows the human heart, to bless you for your words.",Bob made one last effort.,The other smiles faintly. He is evidently glad because of Geoffrey's words, but speech is now very nearly impossible to him. His attempt to rise, to point out the imaginary moonlight to Mona, has greatly wasted his small remaining stock of life, and now but a thin partition, frail and broken, lies between him and that inexorable Rubicon we all must one day pass.,"Not at present," said Jen, after a moment's thought. "But, later on, I shall, in order to clear the memory of David.",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.","Now, then, cheer up, Paddy!" he says to the boy: "yonder lies an oasis in our howling wilderness.".
