"Once in a while, and not very clearly at that."

"Well, what do you see?" demanded the doctor's son, after having given his chum a chance to look around.
"Nothing."
"Nothing?" echoed Whopper blankly.
"Nothing but woods and mountains, and a brook or two. I don't see a thing that looks like a camp anywhere."
