"Then I'm to understand that you think me ungenerous?" "No, indeed, I was was considering my unworthiness." "Such humility is charming," answered Eve, breaking off a tiny spray and tossing it to him. "There; aren't you awfully surprised? Please look so." Wade struck an attitude and made a grimace which to a third person would have indicated wild alarm.
"Men shouldn't sing," observed Lorimer; "if they only knew how awfully ridiculous they look, standing up in dress-coats and white ties, pouring forth inane love-ditties that nobody wants to hear, they wouldn't do it. Only a woman looks pretty while singing." "Ah, that is very nice!" said Thelma, with a demure smile. "Then I am agreeable to you when I sing?" Agreeable?
If you believe in me even to some extent, tell me, my darling, tell me, is that so or not?" She turned red, covered her face with her hands, fell down on the divan and burst into tears. "My dearie! Vassil Vassilich! Vasinka! Honest to God! Honest to God, now, there never was anything of the kind! I always was so careful! I was awfully afraid of this. I love you so!
The scene was awfully grand, and must have been sublimely beautiful to the distant spectator. We pushed on at speed, but were soon obliged to halt. A ditch, about twenty yards wide, and four or five deep, branched off from the main trench. This ditch formed a small island, on which were posted a strong party of the enemy, with two guns.
"Why don't you talk to Zora?" he suggested. "She is so wonderful." "She's the last person in the world that must know anything. Do you understand? The very last." "I'm afraid I don't understand," he replied ruefully. "She doesn't know anything about Mordaunt Prince. She must never know. Neither must mother. They don't often talk much about the family; but they're awfully proud of it.
"And we thought we'd make a nice birthday for him. He's been so awfully jolly decent to us, you know, Mother," said Peter, "and we agreed that next bun-day we'd ask you if we could." "But suppose there hadn't been a bun-day before the fifteenth?" said Mother. "Oh, then, we meant to ask you to let us anti antipate it, and go without when the bun-day came." "Anticipate," said Mother. "I see.
"I'm awfully sorry," said Parson, "but it's not quite done yet, Coates." "How much is done?" demanded Coates. "Not any yet," said Parson, with some confusion. "I was just going to begin. Wasn't I, Telson?" "Won't do," said Coates; "you were up the river this morning, I saw you. If you can go up the river you can do your impositions. Better come with me to the captain."
"Now she's turned loose and she won't come back." Ruth ceased sobbing and turned to gaze at Doris, who patted her head and smiled. "We was stockin' up our ranch," Pete explained almost apologetically. "Ruth and me is pardners." Doris gazed at Pete, her gray eyes warm with a peculiar light. "It's awfully nice of you to amuse Ruth." "Amuse her! My Gosh!
I was glad when you stirred things up a little, last spring, and gave that dance. Or I was glad, till it ended up the way it did. It was the first dance we'd been to since you left, Lance! And I thought it would kind of patch up a little more friendliness with the folks around here. But it didn't. It just made a lot of talk and trouble and, Lance, honey, I'm awfully darn sorry about that piano.
MISS T. But you won't like it one little bit. You'll be awfully sorry afterwards. CAPT. G. I shall like it above all things, and I shall only be sorry that I didn't get more. MISS T. Very well. You will have only yourself to thank if your toes are trodden on. Shall we say Seven? CAPT. G. And Eleven. MISS T. They're beautifully shiny. I can almost see my face in them.
