"Everybody's got to lean on his own strength, sooner or later," he told her with a touch of grimness. "You just won't be romantic!" she cried admiringly. "I really love you, Marise," he answered profoundly; and on this rock-like assurance she sank down with a long breath of trust.

At this stage of the process Larry paused, looked admiringly at his work, winked over the edge of it at Ah-wow, and went hastily into the tent, whence he issued with two little tin canisters, one containing pepper, the other salt. "Why, you beat the French all to nothing!" remarked the captain, who sat on an upturned tea-box, smoking and watching the proceedings.

"Just a little, Miss Louise." "Please arrange them for me," said Louise, stepping up to Little Wolf. Little Wolf gave the offending flowers several slight twiches, this way, and that. "There, how do you think they look now," said she. "O they do look lovely," said Louise, glancing at herself, admiringly in the mirror, why could not I fix them so?"

Lady Weybourne looked after her admiringly. "Say, she's got some pluck, Harry!" she murmured. "They say she lost nearly a hundred mille to-night and she never even mentioned her losings. Irritating, indeed! I wonder what Sir Henry thinks of it. They are only moderately well off." Her husband shrugged his shoulders, after the fashion of his sex.

His feelings when he first set foot in the city were mainly of intense relief at leaving the unwholesome car he had been travelling in; then, as he gazed admiringly at the Oriental buildings around him, they changed to those of satisfaction that he had reached the spot at last, where there was a reasonable possibility of making a start in his career for fortune.

The dog-folk are not greatly given to discussion.

"Dan, show me that place and do it as quickly as possible!" cried Dick. "Come on don't tell me you can't. I'll pay you for your time!" And Dick caught the other youth by the arm. "I'll do it willingly, Dick, and there won't be any time to pay for, even if it takes a week!" cried Dan Baxter. "I am glad to be able to do you a favor, indeed I am!" And he gazed admiringly at the oldest Rover boy.

Yes, I'm only Sheila!" She laughed. "Well, just be 'only Sheila," he answered admiringly, and he held out a hand to her. "I wouldn't have you be anything else, though it's none of my business." For one swift instant she hesitated; then she laid her hand in his. "There's no reason why we should not," she said. "Your father's respectable."

Go back to him, make him hope that Nefert is inclined to him, tell him what distresses the ladies, and if he refuses, but only if he refuses, let him see that you know something of the little dose." The dwarf looked meditatively on the ground, and then said, looking admiringly at the old woman: "That is the right thing."

He knew now that he would have to take her with him in his thoughts on many a long ride whether he wanted to or not.
