Pray continue!" cried Miss Acton in a voice that was almost husky with the hysteric quality of her emotions.,"Go on, Lighthouse girl. You always thought you would like our wedding to be—when?","Through the window. I was passing, and found it open." There is some note in his voice that might well be termed mocking.,"Yes he will; we are engaged.","No," said Kŭt-o-yĭs´. "You are saying what is not true, and I am going to kill you now."，“No ‘chase’ to-day, girls. I’ve got business in town.”，"This young person, though evidently of an investigating turn of mind, has not quite fathomed the nature of the reigning beauty of our little coterie. Being of a candid and affable nature herself, she fails to comprehend how the fangs of the green-eyed monster, once fastened in the tender heart of said beauty, make the said beauty so mortally uncomfy that she's bound to take it out on somebody—and who so natural or convenient as the critter who sicked the serpent on her."，"Why, teacher, it's jest as bright as ever," cried the boy. "It fair seems to laugh as it swings 'round an' jumps down the bay like a long, white arm.""No, sir.
