Excerpt from Told by the Colonel Four Americans were sitting in the smoking-room of a Paris hotel. One of them was a grizzled, middle-aged man, who sat silent and apart from the others and consumed his heavy black cigar with a somewhat gloomy air. The other three were briskly talking. They had been three days in Paris, and had visited the Moulin Rouge, the tomb of Napoleon, and the sewers, and naturally felt that they were thoroughly acquainted with the French capital, the French government, and the French people. They were unanimously of the opinion that Paris was in all things fifty years behind the age, and at least sixty behind Chicago.

Excerpt from The Story of the Red Cross: As Told to the Little Colonel Far away in the distance she could see the shining snow crown of Mont Blanc, and it gave her an odd feeling, as if she were living in a geography lesson, to know that she was bounded on one side by the famous Alpine mountain, and on the other by the River rhone, Whose source she had often traced on the map. The sun shine, the music, and the gay crowds made it seem to Lloyd as if the whole world were out for a holiday, and she ate her melon and listened to the plans for the day with the sensation that something very delightful was about to happen. We'll go shopping this morning, said Mrs. Sherman. I want Lloyd to see some of those wonderful music boxes they make here; the dancing bears, and the musical hand-mirrors; the chairs that play when you sit down in them, and the beer-mugs that begin a tune when you lift them up.

Excerpt from Told in the Verandah: Passages in the Life of Colonel Bowlong, Set Down by His Adjutant The long Indian day had blazed itself out; a soft breeze stirred the passion-flowers in the trellis-work; and the clear tropical moonlight, streaming through leaf and tendril made the ends of our cheroots glow red and dull like expiring gas-jets subdued by electric light. It was after mess, and we were sitting in the verandah smoking, and talking shop. "The best formation for repelling a converging attack," observed Colonel Bowlong, "is a cross." Whereupon his hearers experienced a sensation of the happiest anticipation. The Colonel was a perpetual source of gratification to the regiment; whether he discoursed upon war, love, travel, or the chase, he was never commonplace, he was seldom prosy, but, I must add that when the exigencies of the narrative appeared to demand it, he was not scrupulously nice in the accuracy of his details.

Excerpt from The Colonel's Christmas Dinner: And Other Stories When a man's in trouble, in nine cases out of ten, the quicker he tells his wife, the sooner it's over. The co10 nel went home overcome with the weight of his woe. For a moment his better half was, apparently, as prostrated as himself - no woman likes to have a dinner-party ruined, either by having too little to eat or too many to eat it but no sooner did she note his profound dejection, than she arose to the occasion. Never mind, Colonel, the missing dinner will turn up in time, and if it doesn't, we'll make them so welcome, after their hard trip, that anything will taste good. And then, you know, there's the champagne we were saving for Dot's wedding. It will cover a multitude of sins like charity. Don't you worry. I'll manage it.

Excerpt from The Real Colonel House This may sound like eulogy. But it is not. A great deal may be said or written about Colonel House, but summed up in a Simple phrase, his power for good or ill is based simply upon his disinterestedness. He holds a power never wielded before in this country by any man out of office, a power greater than that of any political boss or Cabinet member. He occupies a place in connection with the Administration which is anomalous, because no such place ever existed before Woodrow Wilson became President of the United States. He holds this power, and he occupies this place because the President knows that he can absolutely rely upon his unselfish service.
