"Now," said Jimmy, cajolingly, "if you were to drive me to Mountain City, and I were to give you ten, and you were to go back to the Emporium with a letter I would write them when we got to Mountain City, a letter that would cause them to pat you on the back and maybe make you a clerk in the store; or if they didn't do that and fired you, and I was to get you a nice job somewhere in New York, maybe you might find the way to Mountain City, eh?"
She had put her hand on my arm cajolingly, but I had shook it off with such evident disgust founded partly and secretly on a horror of physical attraction for her that drew my morbid, starved nature "Very well!... but I'll be back this afternoon, early.
Slowly and with the stiffness of age Jacob sat down on the steps below them and looked up at their startled faces with a twinkle in his dim old eyes. His enjoyment of the moment was intense. "Why not?" he demanded, cajolingly and argumentatively. "Ain't yeh old enough t' have a good time? Ain't yeh waited long enough?
Keith looked at him for a second, and put his hand in his pocket. "I'll pay you back, as sure as I live " began Plume, cajolingly. "No, you will not," said Keith, sharply. "You could not if you would, and would not if you could, and I would not lend you a cent or have a business transaction with you for all the money in New York. I will give you this for the person you have most injured in life.
Robert, perhaps you'll be so good as let me help you, sir? It's good tea; and my Dody," she added, cajolingly, "my home girl 'll tell us what she saw. I'm pinched and starved to hear." "By-and-by, mother," interposed the farmer; "tomorrow." He spoke gently, but frowned. Both Rhoda and Robert perceived that they were peculiarly implicated in the business which was to be discussed without Mrs.
She handed him a towel to dry his hair with. Afterward she produced a comb. "I comb your hair nice," she said. Sam started away in a panic and held out his hand for the comb. Bela let him have it with a regretful look at the thick, bright hair. She started to brew tea. "Don't be mad wit' me for 'cause I laugh," she said cajolingly. "Some tam, maybe, I fall in water. I let you laugh all you want."
"Say, Willie," he muttered cajolingly, "could you cough up a dime out of your coffers for a cup of coffee this morning?" "I'm lung-weary, my friend," said I. "The best I can do is three cents." "And you look like a gentleman, too," said he. "What brung you down? boozer?" "Birds," I said fiercely.
Maldon's tranquillity, self-control, immense age and experience, superior deportment, extreme weakness, and the respect which she inspired, compelled the girl to intrench warily, instead of carrying off the scene in one stormy outburst of resentment as theoretically she might have done. Mrs. Maldon said, cajolingly, flatteringly "My dear, do be your sensible self and listen to me."
Her eyes were dancing now, and two dimples were flitting about her mouth. Keith's memory began to stir. She put her head on one side. "'Lois, if you'll kiss me I'll let you ride my horse," she said cajolingly. "Lois Huntington! It can't be!" exclaimed Keith, delighted. "You are just so high." Keith measured a height just above his left watch-pocket. "And you have long hair down your back."
Why were you trying to throw it away?" As he spoke it flashed upon him that on another occasion she had been in his room. He recalled her flimsy excuse, which she had later on contradicted. She began to laugh, cajolingly. "Don't be ridiculous, Roger; where is your sense of humour? I wasn't trying to throw anything away, I was fetching that water for Miss Rowe.
