I’ll be back to-night.”,“Come on, Bob, let’s get a couple of horses and ride up into the range country. I hear there are some wonderful ranches farther up country.”,CHAPTER X THE PRIZE DESIGNS,"Egad, this love business of you two young men is getting to be anything but a trifle," said Jen, testily. "What between the lot of you and Etwald, there seems to be nothing but trouble. I wish you'd marry the girl, Maurice, and have done with it.",“Won’t you sing something else, Mrs. Wopp.” Nell was growing uncomfortable under Betty’s reference to the unburnished state of her cloud.，"He shall wait upon you at the stroke, sir."，"I sha'n't want any trifles to amuse me, if you will talk to me," says Mona.，“Salute your partner,” yelled Geordie Hodgekiss, the first caller-off.“It was really shameful of those great big boys,” said Mother.

Elinor laid down her brush impressively.,The lips that Patricia had designated as "nice and crinkly" widened in a bright smile that held no hint of hauteur.,At this Mona laughs unrestrainedly; and Lady Rodney, rising hurriedly, says,—,"Assuredly.

Shake hands with Bob Hazard, Jerry. We will all be together this summer.”,“If you only haven’t broken his wind, boy. Pretty risky—to ride him the way you have these last days.”,"But she will be living only six miles from you, and the county will surely call, and that will not be nice for you," says Violet.,There was a shout of amazed laughter, but Patricia persisted:.
