Another moment and the punt was floating out in midstream.,"Isn't it queer how wobbly one feels?" commented Judith uneasily. "We've been crazy for the time to come, and now we feel like running away. I know I'll simply drop when Mr. Benton makes his speech.",“I love, thou lovest, he loves,” said Clarence, scornfully, in answer to this preposterous question.,“Well I’m not going to stay an’ play kid games,” Jimmy retorted loftily, and turned away.,The officer halted his men and after a brief talk with Mr. Whitney gave some orders to his lieutenant. The Chief then turned to Bob.，“All right, Bob, I will, but you’ll have to stop me if I begin to bore you.

I—ought to—help—to-morrow. I—” He slept again with his good resolution half made."What!" cried Jen, jumping up, "did Dido accuse your mother of the crime?"

Mrs. Wilson caught her breath, but whatever objections her mind raised against the last named remained unuttered. All she said was. "This is your party, Willium. Anybody else, now?",After one turn she stops abruptly, near an entrance.,"What is amusing you?" asks he, a trifle stiffly.—To give way to recitation, and then find your listener in agonies of suppressed mirth, isn't exactly a situation one would hanker after.,"I do feel with you," he says, hastily.

They welcomed Julia with graceful kindness; but fatigue soon obliged her to retire to rest, and a consequent indisposition increased so rapidly, as to render it impracticable for her to quit her present abode on that day.
