The boat took in water every minute—whole buckets full. Johnny Blossom’s blouse was sopping wet.,“No ‘chase’ to-day, girls. I’ve got business in town.”，"Why, Molly, you know me better than that!" she exclaimed from behind a perfect rose cloud of blushes.，“I think the linin’ of Miss Gordon’s cloud needs polishin’ these days,” ventured Betty, shyly.，"Oh yes, sir; how could she be mistaken?"[Pg 361] answered Lucy.

Rodney falls back, and with an oath staggers against the mantelpiece.,“Wouldn’t be surprised if I did,” said Link with a smile. “I’m getting a little tired of cows now. If you really want to go, Jerry, I’ll start along with you any time.”,'The insensible heart of Vincent at length began to soften to my misfortunes. He brought me several articles of comfort, of which I had hitherto been destitute, and answered some questions I put to him concerning my family.
