"'Course maybe you don't notice it same as I do, 'cause you don't sleep in the same room with him. But Ma, he groans an' gasps all night—an' he has the most awful dreams—now don't you Anse?" he asked, turning to his brother.,“None of your nonsense,” replied the long-limbed pedestrian, his thankyou’s cut short by Moses’ cheerfulness.,"I wish I were in the night life," she said resentfully.

"That would be too much even for our times.","Good girl, Judith!" cried Patricia, pulling the stool with its burden nearer to the light. "I'll plunge in right away and get it blocked in tonight. Do you know where I put that other package of modeling-wax, Elinor?"，Johnny Blossom sat down upon a box, with his hands thrust deep in his pockets, and stared at Bob; but not a word passed his lips.，I am five feet three inches tall or short, whichever way one looks at me.

"Wouldn't it be fun if we'd run across someone else this time?",“Good afternoon, Aunt Grenertsen, here I am.,"I do. Just now," looking at her, "I am perhaps as near enjoyment as I can be.
