He said almost challengingly: "You're the young man they want I should talk to about the Utah question." The tone was not exactly unkind, but it was not inviting. I said, "Yes, sir." He looked at me, as a judge might eye the suspect of circumstantial evidence. "You're the son of one of the Mormon leaders." I admitted it. And then he began.

"Oh, you have not!" Julia said impatiently. "I'd like to know why I haven't!" Mark said challengingly. "Ah, but you know I have, darling. And I want my wife." It was a Saturday afternoon, and Miss Toland was dozing in her own room. Julia and Mark were alone in the deserted assembly hall. Suddenly he slipped on his knees beside her, and locked one arm about her waist.

He had flopped his stiff, flat-topped felt hat on the oak chest, and was taking off his overcoat. He paused and, lifting his chin and his incredible white whiskers with it gazed at Rachel almost steadily for a couple of seconds. "It is," he said, as it were challengingly "it is, young miss." Then he finished removing his overcoat and thrust it roughly down on the hat.

"Where were you a librarian?" challengingly. "St. Paul the main library." "Honest? Oh dear, I wish I was back in the Cities! This is my first year of teaching, and I'm scared stiff. I did have the best time in college: dramatics and basket-ball and fussing and dancing I'm simply crazy about dancing.

His face was grave, and he did not respond to her mood as he stood there, watching her. "Well," she said, after a silence, during which his face did not change expression; "can't you say something complimentary?" She lifted her eyes challengingly, as though to invite his inspection.

As he spoke his eyes rested for a reflective moment upon Peter Mallory, then returned challengingly to Nan's face. The betraying colour flew up under her skin. She understood what he intended to convey as well as though he had clothed his thought in words. "Having none, partner?" Mallory's kindly, drawling voice recalled her to the game, and she made an effort to focus her attention on the cards.

Miss Griffin laughed easily, but she glanced up challengingly into the eyes of her tall escort. Miss Griffin had heard of the gallantries of West Point's men, and didn't propose to be caught. "You must find the cadets a good deal below your expectations?" remarked Mr. Holmes inquiringly. "No; they're a wholly charming lot," replied the girl. "Oh, that word 'lot' simply escaped me.

I would go over there and, if he was there, call him to account for his insults. There was a light lit within, and I could see him through the window at his desk. "Come in!" in answer to my knock. "Oh, it's you, Razorre!" and his eyes snapped with fresh resentment. "What do you want? Don't you know that I'm busy on A Brief Visit?" "You know why I'm here!" "Well?" challengingly.

André. She was looking at him, her eyes and lips smiling mockingly. Calvert met her gaze calmly and fully. They stood thus, looking at each other, courteously on Calvert's part, curiously, almost challengingly, on the young girl's. It was Madame de St. André who broke the silence.

"Yes, you are," he continued to twit her, encouraged by her attempt at a smile. However, the smile expired. "I suppose you won't deny that Carlo's teeth may have been dirty? He's always nosing in some filth or other," she said challengingly, in a measured tone of sagacity. "And there may be blood-poisoning." "Blood fiddlesticks!" exclaimed Edward Henry.
