They were coiffured and manicured correctly and doubtless considered themselves the elite of the carota species.,Isabella looked calmly at them both.,"It doesn't seem to come right," said Patricia, rumpling her hair with the back of one soiled hand and staring ruefully at the lumpy, meaningless group of two stiff figures in modeling-wax that stood stolidly on a thick little board on top of the piano stool.,"Does he mean going himself?" says Nicholas, idly. "He is here to-day, I know, but one never knows where he may be to-morrow, he is so erratic."，When morning came he rose and wandered away, and whenever he met any of the animals he asked if they could tell him where the Thunder lived.

And when things come to the worst they mend."，Father was certainly a splendid speaker. There! they were shouting hurrah! Johnny joined in at first, but soon he found they were saying, “Hurrah for Johnny Blossom!” This was embarrassing, but pleasant, after all.In the taxicab she unfolded the plans for the week that Miss Jinny had promised them, dwelling on each detail with all the ardor of her enthusiastic nature.

"How—how awfully satisfactory it is to know we both thought alike on even one subject!",“You are right, Bob. I am the chief and starting from to-day I will have to be Mr. Whitney.
