- THE THIRD EYE
- I said:
- I was exceedingly surprised at Professor William Henry Kemper, D.F.
- I said:
- I hadn't thought of that:
- I felt myself growing red, and I looked away from them both.
- I stared at the man and he stared back at me out of his glassy eyes.
- THE IMMORTAL
- I stared at him. He grinned in a friendly way.
- I was already moving away but I stopped and stared at him.
- I waited curiously.
- I admitted to myself that he'd stand no chance.
- II
- I began to detest Samuel Mink.
- SUNSET SOAP
- THE LADIES OF THE LAKE

- I said with a smiling attempt at ease:
- I shuddered:
- III
- I pondered for several moments.
- I said coldly:
- I had never thought of that.
- I absolve myself of all responsibility. She had her chance.
- ONE OVER

- I waved my arms rather gracefully in my excitement:
- I quietly lighted a five-cent cigar, unfolded the letter and read aloud:

- I groaned.
- I said that I did not.
- UN PEU D'AMOUR

- I thanked her for her encomium.
- I think I must have gaped at her in sheer astonishment.
- I looked at the old pig in haughty silence, nauseated by his conceit.
- I lifted my head and stared at the girl incredulously.
- I gazed at her blankly.
- I remained modestly mute.
- I thought deeply for a few moments, then:
- I pondered deeply for a while:
- I said confidently:
- I rose from the grass, pale and determined.
- I stepped nearer him, menacing him with outstretched hand:
- THE EGGS OF THE SILVER MOON
- Instantly I quoted: "'Her breath was like the new-mown hay--'"
- I paused, checked by her bewildered eyes. We both blushed.
- I looked at Jones:
- I looked at the parcel: it was marked: "Bimba leaves; Johore."
