Could you not see how painful my position is at the court, that you must give me this fresh trouble to bear?" "Yes, mother; you know how I think of you. I couldn't help it." "Shame! Could not help it! Is this the result of your education you, growing toward manhood my son to tell me this unblushingly, to give me this pitiful excuse you could not help it? Why was it, sir?"

Don't now, will ye? Please! Run!" The minister did not run, but he walked briskly around the corner. Sure enough, Lavinia was there, just unlocking the door. She expressed herself as very glad to see the caller, ushered him into the sitting room and disappeared, returning in another moment with her brother, whom she unblushingly said had been taking a nap.

At the restaurants, young blades order their dinners of the female waiters, with an arm around their waists, while the old men place their hands unblushingly upon their bosoms. It is but fair to say that the Swedes account for the large proportion of illegitimate births, by stating that many unfortunate females come up from the country to hide their shame in the capital, which is no doubt true.

Three times their exertions were remunerated by sums of twenty dollars, although in one of these instances the evidence was apparently volunteered. In many of these cases the immorality on the part of the informers who brought the charges seems to have been unblushingly stated.

She wore either baggy shabby clothes like a man's, or rich draperies that looked as if they had been rained on; and she seemed equally at ease in either style of dress, and carelessly unconscious of both.

Selby's proposed departure alarmed her more than anything else, and she calmly determined that if he was deceiving her the second time it should be the last. Let society finish the tragedy if it liked; she was indifferent what came after. At the first opportunity, she charged Selby with his intention to abandon her. He unblushingly denied it. He had not thought of going to Europe.

Jerry had unblushingly declared that he himself had "shaken" the horse Anglice, had stolen him twelve months since on Darnley Downs, and was therefore clearly entitled to the entire plunder.

Falsehood is unblushingly uttered in the forum and in the pulpit; and sins that would shock the moral sensibilities of the heathen, go unrebuked in all the great denominations of our land. These churches are like the Jewish church when the Savior exclaimed, 'Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites."

"I'm not ashamed I've simply got to know my future. You'll stick to what you said, won't you, Alice?" "You ought to be punished!" "But you won't marry Allen, will you?" Pat pleaded, unblushingly. "You can have Mr. Covington and I will have Allen, and we all will be happy ever afterward." "Oh, you kids, that's what you both are!" Alice cried in sheer desperation.
