Do hurry, Elinor! I'll run on ahead and tell her you're coming.","Why, because they're the very nicest things in the world, of course," she replied spiritedly. "I love to get new ones and see how they work. It's such fun. Like archery practice, when you hit the bull's eye. Only words are somehow different, too.

She likes Maurice herself," replied Isabella, uneasily. "Maurice wants our engagement kept quiet for the present, but when I do tell Major Jen and my mother, I am sure neither of them will object."

"'Bonnie Lesley:' the poet says of her what I think of you.",There! he had it! Not that he was altogether sure of its being a text exactly, but it was so beautiful!

Anson was sleeping and Billy wondered just what he would say when he woke up in the morning and found his pants gone. Their mother had demanded that a pair of pants be thrown down to her. Billy needed his own so he had thrown down Anson's.,"In the house of Major Jen.

"Gee!" he exclaimed, "I've got a piece of Injun turnip in my pocket right now.
