Maurice scratched his head thoughtfully. "Say, you know a lot about snakes an' things, don't you?" he said admiringly.,"I am--as you know--a physician, but I am also what you may not know--a man of genius.

"The two older girls go back to college, but the rest of the family go right home and stay there.","If I was, how could I ask you to marry me?" returns he, in a tone so hurt that she grows abashed.,“How old are you?” broke in the Admiral.,"You black, thievin' passel of impudence, you!" she was saying.
