I will ask mamma; she knows if I like it. Is it quite correct to like music, do you think?" The silly look which accompanied this speech made Dexie almost disgusted with her, but she turned to Cora and smiled significantly. "Well," said Dexie, when her double had taken her departure, "she has tired me out; but with that chin what can anyone expect? It tells her character at a glance."
"All we'd see would be the marks of the trail, and they'll stay for some time, if it doesn't rain, which isn't likely. What I want to do is to pack enough grub and other things," he added significantly with a motion toward his .45, "for a long trip. We've got to get at the bottom of how they drive off our cattle, and manage to get them out of the valley without leaving a trace.
The Senora and Whitney seem to be as friendly as ever. I should say that they were going the pace fast, and it shows on him." I glanced significantly at Kennedy, but he betrayed nothing that might lead one to suppose he had discovered the cause. Evidently he was not ready yet to come out into the open and expected further developments on the poisoned cigarette clue.
I told them kindly but firmly that they must not come on the place again without my permission. After supper I went over and asked Mr. Jones about these children, and he replied, significantly, looking around first to make sure that no one heard him: "Mr. Durham, steer clear of those people. You know there are certain varmints on a farm to which we give a wide berth and kill 'em when we can.
Budge Isham looked significantly at the landlord, but he had already drawn a glass of spirits and was coming from behind the bar with it. "Stranger, swallow this; you look cold; you're welcome to the Heavenly Bower, whether you come through the roof or down the chimbley." "Thank you; I'll take the whiskey in a minute."
Really it is perfectly cruel that you haven't been to see me. But then, I know," she ran on without giving the other time to speak, "how busy you've been. I've seen your name in the Gossip, and you've been everywhere." "Yes, I have," returned Miss Merrivale, catching rather awkwardly at the excuse supplied to her. Chauncy Wilson laughed significantly.
"A multitude of witnesses," Marion said, significantly; and added, "girls, Ruth has but one text in support of her position; see if she has." "Well, I have another," said Eurie.
The other ladies looked significantly at them, and one of them said, "Don't you think there's something in it? don't you think they are interested in each other?" Mr. King put down his soup-spoon, too much amazed to reply. Do women never think of anything but mating people who happen to be thrown together?
Duff Salter looked at his man long and earnestly, and from head to foot, and the inspection appeared to please him. "Mike," he said, in his loud, deafish voice, "I am going to cure you of your vertigo." "Whin, dear Mister Salter." "Perhaps to-morrow," remarked Duff Salter significantly. "I shall have a man here who will either confer it on you permanently or cure you instantly."
She reappeared soon with a fat home-made sausage and a couple of warm biscuits which she insisted upon his taking. "They're all buttered and they've got sugar on 'em," she whispered significantly. "Say, you eat now, while I saw," she commanded, coming around through the gate. She had put on her fascinator hood, but her hands and wrists were bare.
