"Good-bye, Smith." I have never liked my last name, but at that moment the boys contrived to put a kindness of tone into it which made it "Well, go get some sleep.--No, go at once; you'll be called when needed."

"Who don't belong to Ferry's scouts at all," I still more sweetly added. He spurted a pint to reply, "Fishe's batt'ry." "Good-morning," he responded, tardily and grimly. "Well, you air in a hurry."
