Much as a literary person in like circumstances would begin, absent-mindedly, pulling out volume after volume, so she stepped into the garden in order to have the stars at hand, even though she did not look at them.
It was a meal upon which Sallie Kingsbury expended her best powers as cook, with no mean results; but nobody took much notice of it, after all. Mrs. Stoddard poured her tea into her saucer, drinking and eating absent-mindedly. Her face lighted with something very like a smile whenever she caught Agatha's eyes, but to her talk was not necessary.
"And as soon as he's clear of the Army, he finds he's got money to burn," chuckled Caldegard. "No wonder it's six months before he pays a visit to his respectable big brother." Amaryllis gathered up her half-read letters, and walked absent-mindedly to the open french-window. "Oh well," continued her father, "I'm afraid there aren't many sensations left for your rolling stone."
She was the last one in the pool, and Tish absent-mindedly took her bathrobe and slippers back to the camp when she went. Tish went out in the canoe shortly after. She was learning to use one, with a life preserver on Tish, of course, not the canoe. And Mr. McDonald arriving soon after, Aggie was compelled to sit in the water for two hours and twenty minutes.

So she absent-mindedly ate her kippered herring, which had been strongly recommended by the waiter, and tried to think of what a spy would do, so she might avoid any suspicious movements. It struck her, too, that war seemed to have made the people on that side of the ocean extremely ready with weapons.
And instantly he began a hymn to the Virgin, at the top of his voice. Miss Lydia listened absent-mindedly to the hymn, and did not press the singer any further though she was quite resolved, in her own mind, to find out the meaning of the riddle later.

"Condy Rivers, you've been here and in this room at least twice a week for the last year and a half, and that clock, and no other, has always hung there." But already Condy had forgotten or lost interest in the clock. "Is that so? is that so?" he murmured absent-mindedly, seating himself at the table. Mr.
