Poons wanted to pour out his heart to Miss Husted and tell her all, but Von Barwig promptly squelched this impulse, and sent him out of the room. Jenny followed him, and Von Barwig faced Miss Husted alone. "They are charming young people," began Von Barwig. "Yes, when they're apart," she replied. "Now what have you against young Poons?" he asked conciliatingly.

He read aloud: "Helene Spenceley Prouty, Wyoming." Mr. Cone lowered his voice discreetly: "What was her explanation?" "She accused me of snoring!" declared Mr. Penrose, furiously. "I heard the clock strike every hour until morning! Not a wink have I slept not a wink, Mr. Cone!" "We can arrange this satisfactorily, Mr. Penrose," Mr. Cone smiled conciliatingly.

Nettie Colebrook's unappreciative ears got the benefit of it. In the dining-room a disapproving Susan stood by the table. "I thought you wasn't never comin'. The hash is gettin' cold." Mrs. Colebrook gasped audibly. "Yes, yes, I know," murmured Mr. Burton conciliatingly. "But we're here now, Susan." "What will Master Keith have for his supper?" questioned Mrs. Colebrook, lifting her chin a little.

Madden, the treasurer of a large shoe company, when they met on the marble tiles of the hall in their Boston club. "All right. Why?" "Well," replied Madden, conciliatingly, "you seem kind of preoccupied, that's all. I didn't know but what the fifty-four hour bill the legislature's just put through might be worrying you." "We'll handle that situation when the time comes," said Ditmar.

We spoke conciliatingly of 'friendly intervention, of bringing peace and order to this distracted country, to the poor moujik, when what he saw were his villages a torn battle ground of two contending armies, while the one had forced itself upon him, requisitioned his shaggy pony, burned the roof over his head, and did whatever military necessity dictated.

The old man said the west slopes of the mountains were steep and that they run close to the river down there, so we ought to be able to pick out Norne with the glass. There isn't any harm in that, is there?" he added conciliatingly, "as long as we've got the glass?" Archer maintained a sullen silence.

"Well, what are the facts?" he asked conciliatingly, coercing his attention, and demanding of himself what allowance he must make for that morbid perversion of view which came of a too fatigued body and mind. "The facts are these," she began, with a solemnity of tone that startled him into keener attentiveness.

But Rose kept them in some secret place; also nothing would have tempted good old Anna to show one of her darling nursling's love-letters to unsympathetic eyes. Alfred Head turned to his wife. "Now, Polly," he said conciliatingly, "you asked me for what I am paying." He took up the longest of the letters off the table. "See here, my dear.

Hot here this is only an hotel we are going to have a house. How do you do? This is my dolly." I saluted dolly, and thereby inspired its parent with confidence: she put her hand in mine, and gave me her smooth little cheek to kiss. "You are not like papa," she then observed. I smiled conciliatingly, being uncertain whether it were prudent to follow this lead; but Mrs.

Fröhling, alone of the company there, sat together apart, with lowering brows. Mrs. Hegner went up to them, rather timidly. "I want to tell you how sorry I am, Mr. Fröhling," she said conciliatingly. Polly had a kind heart, if a pettish manner. "What a pity you didn't take out your certificate when Manfred advised you to do so!" Mr. Fröhling remained silent.
