The Brunswick had its adherents, who proclaimed its table the best in New York, and the land once rang with a Tammany dinner that was held there. But that south-west corner. It was famous as "Del's" and it was famous when it was Martin's.
The curve of Del's delicate eyebrows and of her lips straightened. "All the trouble comes through our having nothing to do," pursued Henrietta, disregarding those signs that her "meddling" was unwelcome. "The idle women! We ought to be busy at something useful you and I and the rest of 'em. Then we'd not be tempted to kill time doing things that cause gossip, and may cause scandal."
He scolded his Aunt Mary for doing her own Housework and told the Colored Men how to lay the Cement Walk down through the Grape Arbor. He promised his Father not to play Poker any more and vowed to his Mother that she was a better Chef than the one up at Del's. But his sub-conscious Self was so considerate of Elphye that he never brought in her Name at all, at all.
But you " Arthur's laugh was a sneer "And I thought you were proud!" From Del's eyes blazed that fury which we reserve for those we love when they exasperate us. "Shame on you, Arthur Ranger!" she exclaimed. "Shame on you! See what a snob you have become. Except that he's poor, Dory Hargrave has the advantage of any man we know.
'They may be fit to stand before kings' I said to myself, 'but my father is a king and of a sort they ain't fit to stand before." The color was high in Del's cheeks and her eyes were brilliant. "You'll come out all right, Artie," said she. "I don't know just how, but you'll do something, and do it well."
I used to feel the same way the year I was ranching in Texas. My family sent me out there to put me out of temptation; but I concluded I'd rather drink myself to death on good whiskey at Del's than on the stuff we got on the range, so I pulled my freight and came East again. But while I was there I was a little king. I was just as good as the next man, and he was no better than me.
In contrast to Del's siren tones, Frona's were purest silver as they rippled down-island through the trees. "Oyez! Oyez! Open water! Open water! And wait a minute. I'll be with you." Three miles up-stream, where the Yukon curved grandly in from the west, a bit of water appeared.
"A dinner at Del's for over two hundred hungry Reserves, and on a salary of $35 per month. Nope. Not on your life." "Cast loose and provide," came the order. There were a few moments of rapid work, then the battery was reported in readiness for firing.
She would not wear spectacles yet. But she tried on a pair at Kennicott's office. They really were much more comfortable. Dr. Westlake, Sam Clark, Nat Hicks, and Del Snafflin were talking in Del's barber shop. "Well, I see Kennicott's wife is taking a whirl at the rest-room, now," said Dr. Westlake. He emphasized the "now."
Del's tone was hostile, defiant. "You can't abruptly stop seeing him. Everyone'd say you and he were meeting secretly." "Really!" "But you can be careful how you treat him. You can show him, and everybody, that there's nothing in it. You must " Henrietta hesitated, dared; "you must be just friendly, as you are with Arden and the rest of the men." Hiram's daughter was scarlet.
