`` Not often . '' `` I wish you would n't . '' `` It 's no harm , Jo . I have billiards at home , but it 's no fun unless you have good players , so , as I 'm fond of it , I come sometimes and have a game with Ned Moffat or some of the other fellows . '' `` Oh , dear , I 'm so sorry , for you 'll get to liking it better and better , and will waste time and money , and grow like those dreadful boys . I did hope you 'd stay respectable and be a satisfaction to your friends , '' said Jo , shaking her head . `` Ca n't a fellow take a little innocent amusement now and then without losing his respectability ? '' asked Laurie , looking nettled . `` That depends upon how and where he takes it . I do n't like Ned and his set , and wish you 'd keep out of it . Mother wo n't let us have him at our house , though he wants to come . And if you grow like him she wo n't be willing to have us frolic together as we do now . '' `` Wo n't she ? '' asked Laurie anxiously . `` No , she ca n't bear fashionable young men , and she 'd shut us all up in bandboxes rather than have us associate with them . '' `` Well , she need n't get out her bandboxes yet . I 'm not a fashionable party and do n't mean to be , but I do like harmless larks now and then , do n't you ? '' `` Yes , nobody minds them , so lark away , but do n't get wild , will you ? Or there will be an end of all our good times . '' `` I 'll be a double distilled saint . ''
`` I ca n't XXXXX saints .
