That "life is thorny, and youth is vain" has not as yet occurred to either of these two. Nay, more, were you even to name this thought to them, they would rank it as flat blasphemy, and you a false prophet—love and laughter being, up to this, the burden of their song.,"Much stronger, sir.",He glanced at her closely, struck by the odd note in her voice. "He seems a manly little chap," he said. "I must get to know him better.",“Thanks, fellows, thanks,” laughed the Chief. “It will be fine for all of us. But that’s enough of my news—what have you chaps been up to? Been bored?”，"Poor David!" echoed Etwald, with a sneer. "Foolish David, you might say, to die for the sake of a woman."，"And perhaps, too, the law may be on his side: there is plenty of time yet for a missing will or a—a—useful witness to turn up. That will," says Mona, musingly, "must be somewhere. I cannot tell you why I think so, but I am quite sure it is still in existence, that no harm has come to it. It may be discovered yet."，“How did you manage it?” put in Bob, who was thrilled with the narrative.“Mother dear, can’t you sell that fishing rod for me that I got from Uncle Isaac?”

Moses stared, wondering at this unusual compliment.,"That's all. Jest Walter Watland.",“Uncle Isaac has no further need of anything,” said Mother. “He died last night, little John.”,Out in the front hall stood Miss Melling, holding in her hand a plate on which was a big piece of cake with thick frosting on it.,Now, after these two had gone to the river the son-in-law arose and went over to the old man's lodge, and knocked on the poles and called to the old man to get up and help him kill.

This made the son-in-law angry, and he began to talk badly to the old woman and to threaten to harm her.,"I wonder you are not afraid of going too far," he puts in, warningly, his dark eyes flashing.,"With the greatest pleasure. What should it be?" As Miss Acton loved "Sally in our Alley," he would be happy to sing it.,She is distraite and silent all the morning, taking small notice of what goes on around her.
