These serpents were charming people, amusing men and smart women, all anxious to make the acquaintance of the latest sensation, the Japanese millionairess and her good-looking husband. Asako lunched with them and dined with them and sat with them near the sea in wonderful bathing costumes which it would be a shame to wet.
"Oh yes; I lunched there. I'm to go down and meet the Duke some day." "Meet the Duke!" "Why not?" "No reason on earth, only I can't imagine the governor going to Richmond for his dinner. Well! I am very glad to hear it. I hope you'll get on well with him." "I was so much struck with your sister."
Please give my regards to Mr. and Mrs. Pierce, and believe me, Yours ever sincerely, After these letters were written, Peter studied the wall again for a time. Studied it till long after the hour when he should have lunched.
Then, at length, turned south again and, after a 20-mile tramp, arrived in camp at 6.35, having seen no sign whatever of Musk-ox, although this is the region where Pike found them common; on July 1, 1890, at the little lake where we lunched, his party killed seven out of a considerable band. At 9.30 that night Preble and Billy returned.
After a couple of hours Prince Ching came in and reported that they had lunched, and that they were very pleased to have seen Her Majesty, and had gone away. I must here explain that the Admiral had entered by the left gate of the Palace. The middle gate was only used for Their Majesties, with one exception, viz.: in the case of anyone presenting credentials. Then they entered by the center gate.
Then it was nearly noon, and we lunched in his hut, a square building of split logs, with bare earth floor, and roof of clap-boards and bark. Our lunch consisted of goat's meat and pan de mais.
Rose never, of course, made one at the brilliant assemblies which Mrs. Ivers gave and graced; she only saw those who breakfasted or lunched in the square, or who, like the little old gentleman, and one or two others, joined the family circle.
Many are like my friend who lunched daily on zwieback and raw carrots. "I think everybody ought to eat some raw carrots every day; don't you?" she said. We can not mold everybody to our liking, and we should not try. If we conquer ourselves, we have about all we can do. If we succeed in this great work, we will evolve enough tolerance to be willing to allow others to shape their own ends.
You always did have a maddening habit of being flippant at the wrong time. Haven't you seen him again anywhere?" "I've walked the Rue de Rivoli and lunched at the Ritz looking for him; but I've never had even a glimpse unless that was his back I saw at the Crillon to-day. If I saw his eyes I'd know in a minute." "Why should you think it was his back?"
She said it with a perceptible, though very mild change of tone; but Gerald, in his preoccupation, did not notice the change. 'You've seen her several times since she came back? he asked. 'Yes, twice; I lunched with her and these American friends of hers yesterday, said Helen. 'Well, I've seen her three times, said Gerald.
