"Didn't the water cool you off ?" Dodge didn't reply, but he walked a few steps away before attempting to step on dry land, thus avoiding his late opponent.
"That little business is all over," declared Tom Reade coolly.
"Bend down by the water, Dick, and I'll wash your nose with my handkerchief.

"I've got to look after Dodge," mumbled Bayliss.
"No, you don't!" Dave warned him.

"After the kind of language you have used to me you can't slip out of trouble quite so easily as all that.

Get ready." "Quit---can't you ?" protested Bayliss.
"No; not unless you'll admit that you lied when you applied disagreeable names to me," said Dave Darrin firmly.

"Bayliss, are you ready to admit that you are a liar ?" "You bet I'm not!" cried the other hoarsely.
