Download or read book His Own People written by Booth Tarkington and published by 1st World Publishing. This book was released on 2004-10 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The glass-domed "palm-room" of the Grand Conti-nental Hotel Magnifique in Rome is of vasty heights and distances, filled with a mellow green light which filters down languidly through the upper foliage of tall palms, so that the two hundred people who may be refreshing or displaying themselves there at the tea-hour have something the look of under-water creatures playing upon the sea-bed. They appear, however, to be unaware of their condition; even the ladies, most like anemones of that gay assembly, do not seem to know it; and when the Hungarian band (crustacean-like in costume, and therefore well within the picture) has sheathed its flying tentacles and withdrawn by dim processes, the tea-drinkers all float out through the doors, instead of bubbling up and away through the filmy roof. In truth, some such exit as that was imagined for them by a young man who remained in the aquarium after they had all gone, late one afternoon of last winter. They had been marvelous enough, and to him could have seemed little more so had they made such a departure. He could almost have gone that way himself, so charged was he with the uplift of his belief that, in spite of the brilliant strangeness of the hour just past, he had been no fish out of water.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Fascinating Stranger and Other Stories" is a collection of 13 stories by the American novelist and dramatist Booth Tarkington. The stories are light and pleasant, bringing a reader to the everyday life of America in the 1920s. The characters are simple, witty, intelligent, and adventurous. The same characters repeat in different stories, although they don't follow the same subject line. On the contrary: Tarkington masterfully sets his protagonists in different life situations to show us all the versatility of life.

Visit us online at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG - - The patient, an old-fashioned man, thought the nurse made a mistake in keeping both of the windows open, and her sprightly disregard of his protests added something to his hatred of her. Every evening he told her that anybody with ordinary gumption ought to realize that night air was bad for the human frame. "The human frame won't stand everything, Miss Perry," he warned her, resentfully. "Even a child, if it had just ordinary gumption, ought to know enough not to let the night air blow on sick people yes, nor well people, either! 'Keep out of the night air, no matter how well you feel.' That's what my mother used to tell me when I was a boy. 'Keep out of the night air, Virgil, ' she'd say. 'Keep out of the night air.'"
