It gave him a sense of manliness to sleep there alone; and when the heavier gusts of night wind rocked the tower, and each revolution of the big wheel splashed the water against the tank, as waves lap a ship’s side, he dreamed himself on the ocean, called himself “Captain.”,“Was it dark for Joner inside the whale?” asked Pete Stolway, who noted his father viewing him through the gaping curtain and wished to appear in earnest conversation with his instructor.,“Here I stand upon this stage,“But your school, my child! You must be educated; you—”,“Moses stan’s on his head so’s his brains’ll filter back into place,” teased Mrs. Wopp.，“Yes, I s’pose we can listen to you scramble up and down the piano keys all night, but if I do anything it’s another story.”，“I was ten in January, the twelfth,” May Nell replied, with no pride in her tone; she was always older than those of her size. Yet she was not prepared for the gasps and backward movement of the twins.，At this point Superintendent Stolway rang the bell for general assembly. As she drew the curtains, Mrs. Wopp reflected that she had nobly pumped from the well of truth, crystal waters for the mental refreshment of her scholars.“I’m going to work as soon ’s school’s out; it’s for you and May Nell, too, you know.”

I’ve got a new sister.” But his eyes belied his blunt words.,Betty entered the room last and was rendered almost speechless when she saw the birthday cake.

Then we’ll talk it over.”,He climbed cat-like to the crest again, slid through the brush, dashed across bare spots, jumped from rocks that jutted in his way, struck stones but righted himself before falling, truly “hit only the high places,” as he breathlessly told the girls waiting for him at Ellen’s Isle.,Yes, Billy had fainted for the first time in his[239] life.

One sat in the bed of the wagon and held Billy as easily as possible, while the other lifted May Nell to the seat, mounted beside her, and drove rapidly back to town.,“If you wish to do so.”,Howard Eliot guided his charges through the mazes of the city to a restaurant.
