But there was nothing else to do. Standing under a lamp-post, he opened out the newspaper. It was bitingly cold; that, perhaps, was why his hand shook as he looked down at the big headlines. For Bunting had been very unfair to the enterprise of the editor of his favourite evening paper. This special edition was full of new matter new matter concerning The Avenger.
"You sound as though you agreed with them," he observed bitingly. "I'll tell you what we must do! Keep a sharp watch on them. The minute they make trouble arrest them! We can do whatever we want then." Just before the hour of prayer the following afternoon, Peter and John entered the Temple with the worshipers who were streaming from the city.
Right in front of us half a dozen sets of false teeth, arranged in a horrid circle around a cigar-box full of extracted molars such as made one cringe, grinned bitingly out of a glass case before the dentist's office door. The effect was of a lipless and ghastly laugh.
When she asked him a little bitingly what form his disciplined energy would take, he promptly answered: "Irrigation." She laughed in his face softly. "What do you know about irrigation?" she asked. "I can learn it it's the game to play out there, I'm sure of that," he answered. "It doesn't sound distinguished," she remarked drily.
"Aw, hell! I said so, didn't I?" shouted Bruce, with a fierce uplift of his distorted face. Ellen strode out from the shadow of the tall men who had obscured her. "Bruce, y'u're a liar," she said, bitingly. The surprise of her sudden appearance seemed to root Bruce to the spot. All but the discolored places on his face turned white. He held his breath a moment, then expelled it hard.
"At half a dollar a day," he answered sharply. "They get that much from His Excellency, do they?" she asked in real surprise. "That doesn't look like filibustering, does it?" "'His Excellency!" he retorted. "Why won't you look this matter straight in the face? Napoleon or no Napoleon, the end of this thing is ruin." "Take care that you don't get lost in the debris," she said bitingly.
Wait my explanation, or by all that I hold sacred, you will regret it to your dying hour!" Millicent drew back a little. She conveyed the suggestion that his nearness was offensive to her nostrils. And she laughed, with due semblance of real amusement. "What! Has she made a fool of you too?" she cried bitingly. Then Helen did exactly the thing she ought not to have done. She fainted.
Whenever the door of the car was opened a blast of cold would enter, bitingly, and she shivered. Came another morning which found her haggard with want of sleep and broken with weariness.
"I am not going to let you pass till I have had a kiss." "Ah!" Battle flamed up in Gretchen's eyes. Somewhere in the past, in some remote age, her forebears had been men-at-arms or knights in the crusades. "You are very hard to please. Some women " "But what kind of women?" bitingly. "Not such as I should care to meet. Will you let me by peacefully?" "After the toll, after the toll!"
The gale blew fiercely and bitingly, driving the snow in swirls and spirals before it. All was smooth at the place where the trap had been set; there was not a trace of the recent death, even the snow round the trap had been flattened out. The very scent of the she-wolf had been almost entirely blown away.
