The Power which ruined the Ottoman ...

He has retired, they say, from a thriving business, with a snug property, suspected by some to be rather more than snug, and entitling him to be called a capitalist, except that this word seems to be equivalent to highway robber in the new gospel of Saint Petroleum.

She heard Wen Ho's incessant pattering in the kitchen, the crunch and thud of Prosper's shoveling outside.

I was content not to be there where it was cold and dark, where little children so easily lost their way,—how snug it was to be within doors before the fire that warmed me through and through; how nice it was to be at home!
