"I was looking at Miss Knapp and lost the thread of the discourse for a minute." "That's what I was talking about," she said sharply, "about taking her and the rest of us through Chinatown." "Yes, yes. I remember," I said unblushingly. "If I can get away from business, I'm at your service at any time." Then Mrs.
And so excellent a sauce is hunger that we received and enjoyed our "bird apiece" unabashed and unblushingly the men-folk returning for further helpings, and the "boys" managing all that were left.
If my reader is a mother it will not take very long for her to justly determine the values. Recently I heard a busy woman and an excellent housewife say: "If I am pressed with important work, and my parlors are not very dusty, I unblushingly wipe off the polished furniture, on which every speck shows, and leave the upholstered articles until another time." This was not untidiness.
Sometimes they were useful, and he never failed to supply them with just as much information about a case as would in any event leak out. That saved them trouble and made them grateful. He went away now to have the bare details of the murder put into shape. When he returned he held the diamond-set miniature in his hand. "This has been left at the Lost Property Office," he declared unblushingly.
But as far as any prejudice on the subject is concerned, I have none. I had as lief defend a party that robs India 'for her own good, as support those who would rob her with a more cynical frankness and unblushingly transfer the proceeds to their own pockets. I do not care a rush whether they rob Peter to pay Paul, or fraudulently deprive Paul of his goods for the benefit of Peter."
I came up to it, young and without advisers, rather priggish, rather dangerously open-minded and very open-eyed, and with something it is, I think, the common gift of imaginative youth, and I claim it unblushingly fine in me, finer than the world and seeking fine responses. I did not want simply to live or simply to live happily or well; I wanted to serve and do and make with some nobility.
I spoke her name, unblushingly, aloud. "Helene!" The fan stopped. There was a silence that seemed an eternity as the palm leaf trembled in her hand, there was an answer that strove tenderly to command. "Hush, you must not talk," she said. Never, I believe, came such supreme happiness with obedience. I felt her hand upon my brow, and the fan moved again.
If ever a borough deserved disfranchising, it was Liverpool on that election. The conduct of the freemen was atrocious. I speak of them as a body. The bribery on that occasion was so broad, barefaced, and unblushingly carried on, as to excite disgust in all thoughtful men's minds.
The Senator will nevertheless unblushingly appeal to policies of a century back, suitable, mayhap, in their day, but now become a warning rather than a guide. The garage man, on the contrary, takes his mechanism as he finds it, and does not allow any mystic respect for the earlier forms of the gas engine to interfere with the needed adjustments.
To this letter Buckingham sent a very chilling reply, whereupon Bacon, in his anxiety, sent Yelverton in person to try to conciliate Buckingham and the King, enjoining him to lie so hard and so unblushingly as to declare that Bacon had never hindered, but had in "many ways furthered the marriage;" that all he had done had been to check Coke's "impertinent carriage" in the matter, which he wished had "more nearly resembled the Earl of Buckingham's sweet disposition."
