merry scary christmas departed.” —_Cruise in a Whale Boat_. Bob laughed. “There sure must be a lot of men working up there.”,"Two down," cried Stanhope. "Good work, Billy!","I am no charlatan, major," rejoined Etwald, coolly. "I ask no money for my performance.","Did he?" says Mona. "Geoffrey gave me these pearls," pointing to a pretty string round her own white neck, "a month after we were married. It seems quite a long time ago now," with a sigh and a little smile. "But your opals are perfect. Just like the moonlight. By the by," as if it has suddenly occurred to her, "did you ever see the lake by moonlight? I mean from the mullioned window in the north gallery?",Lurks at the gate:，"Well, no!" replied the doctor, with wonderful coolness, "I did not expect that. If the worst came to the worst, I knew that I could protect myself; but I must admit that the confession of my counsel, Mr. Sarby, took me somewhat by surprise."，"But the cabin is motionless, madam," said Mr Lawrence. "It is the tumbling of the sea that makes you ill. Here we are as restful as a painting."，“She’s been stolen, mother! But I’ll find her—I know where to look.
