It isn't that I don't think you're a darling to want to do it," he added in hasty concern. No use. She was deeply hurt. She went to her dressing-table and began her preparations for the night with a downcast face. Certainly she wouldn't bother Warren. She only did it because she loved him so. A tear splashed down on her white hand. Next day she triumphantly accompanied the golfers.

She is of medium height, fair, with regular features; she has the complexion of a consumptive, and there is a little black mole on her right cheek. I was struck by the expressiveness of her face." "A mole!" I muttered through my teeth. "Is it possible?" The doctor looked at me, and, laying his hand on my heart, said triumphantly: "You know her!"

After many failures, I had just triumphantly succeeded when he caught sight of my reflection in a mirror, and seeing the halfpenny in my eye, my chin in air, and my face puckered up with what must have been a comical travesty of his own appearance, he concluded that I was mimicking him, and defying his authority, and coming quickly up to me he gave me a sharp box on the ear.

She cried out that she must not die without her father's leave. The girls triumphantly asserted that this was a paltry excuse, and let her go, with the scornful assurance that God would not accept as a martyr one who had so little of a martyr's courage. Poor little Jeanne Marie! This unjust ordeal had a painful effect on her joyous spirit.

"Yes; I know him. He was introduced to me by an intimate friend of that boy," indicating Grant. Willis Ford smiled triumphantly. He felt that he had checkmated our hero. "Is this true, Grant?" "I presume so," answered Grant, coolly. "You refer to Tom Calder, do you not, Mr. Ford?" "I believe that is his name." "He is not an intimate friend of mine, but we came from the same village.

The lad shouted at him: "One is named Simon something ... that is not a name ... Simon indeed." And he, on the brink of tears, replied for the third time: "I am named Simon." The urchins fell a-laughing. The lad triumphantly lifted up his voice: "You can see plainly that he has no papa." A deep silence ensued.

When they got close enough to discern a lone horseman driving this large herd, they surrounded the horses and lone warrior, and brought him triumphantly into camp. The whole village turned out and had a great war dance that was kept up three days and three nights. The two scalps which the young man had taken were tied to a pole which was placed in the center of the dance circle.

"There now, my lady," he said triumphantly when they were on the platform. "I suppose you thought you were comin' to Rubeville. That don't look so hay-seedy? Eh?" He pointed to a dusty automobile whose driver, a boy of eighteen or twenty, with a torn hat, eyed her with dull curiosity. "I suppose you expected a one-hoss shay. No, indeedy. You've come to all the comforts of home, little girl."

The birds were twittering their last sleepy good nights, and two or three little stars were faintly showing in the blue sky above the dark mountain, while scores of tiny fireflies were dotting the air below. "There, Jerusalem!" Polly was saying triumphantly, as she perched herself on the broad arm of her mother's piazza chair; "now everybody is out of the way, and I can have you all to myself."

Sir, those are words which ought never to have escaped the lips of a British Minister. They are sentiments which ought never to have occurred even to his heart. I repudiate, I reject them. I remember there was a time when England, with not a tithe of her present resources, inspired by a patriotic cause, triumphantly encountered a world in arms.
