Her aunt did not rank her with Valetta and Fergus, but let her consort with herself and Gillian, and this suited her much better. Even Gillian allowed that she was ever so much nicer when there was no one to tease her.
The moment she caught sight of Madame Hsing, she rose to her feet. "What are you up to?" Madame Hsing laughingly inquired. "Let me see! How much nicer you embroider artificial flowers now!" So speaking, she entered, and, taking the needlework from her hands, she scrutinised it, while extolling its beauty.
We fear, that, whatever may be the excellence of his Lordship's intentions, he must set himself seriously to the task of acquiring more skill in the use of the English tongue, and a nicer discrimination between processes of thought, before his writings will prove to be the flux that promotes that fusion. For, in the third paragraph of his letter, he says to Mr.
A nicer way, however, is to score the rows in half a dozen ears of corn; scrape off the corn; add a pint of lima or any nice green bean, and boil one hour in a quart of boiling water, with one teaspoonful each of salt and sugar, and a saltspoonful of pepper. Let the water boil away to about a cupful; add a spoonful of butter, and serve in a hot dish.
Throwing aside the sticks, she tried to weave the leaves into garlands, as Joan had taught her. The attempt was hardly a success. As the wreath with which Fudge submitted to be crowned speedily fell apart, she concluded that, instead of making a chain for herself, it would be nicer to carry the oak twig for a sun-shade.
If we had not taken the house in Rodaun, we might just as well go to Tyrol, for one can't deny it would be much nicer. Dora looks quite a stranger. It's absurd, for one can't alter in 1 month, still, she really looks quite different; she does her hair differently, parted over the ears. I have had no chance yet to say anything about the "trouble," and she has not alluded to it.
But she wasn't as spindly as he used to think. And her dark hair, even features and slim hands were nicer than he recalled. "I hear you fellas got your space-armor sample, Frank." "Yep we did. We're ordering more." Her expression became speculative. Her brown eyes lighted. "I've been wondering if I should look Outward, too. Whether it makes sense for a girl." "Could be I've heard."
Say something about soldierly mien and stern, unbending features!" "I see," said Chilvers. "The other chaps.... I'll work them off as venerable wiseacres!..." "No, don't rub their age in. Venerable's not a nice word to use about anything except a cathedral. You can call the Abbey a venerable edifice or the sacred fane, but it would look nicer if you call the old buffers "the Elder Statesmen."
She served it in cups of grass, and Ted thought he had never tasted anything nicer than the cup of afternoon tea served in an eglu. "Alalik, what were you singing as we came in?" asked Ted. "A song my mother always sang to us," she replied. "It is called 'Ahmi, and is an Esquimo slumber song." "Will you sing it now?" asked Mr.
It is nicer in May, when everything looks cheerful; but I always live in London. You will come back for the season, I suppose?" "Oh no," said Ursula. "I never was in London before. Cousin Anne brought me for a great pleasure. I have been twice to the theatre, and at the ball here." "Oh yes, I forgot, you were at the ball and you danced, did you dance? I cannot remember. There were so many people.
