She had rented him for the month, so to speak, and, though it hadn't specially occurred to her, probably this sort of thing was all in the month's work... It was as near as the wishing ring could bring her to a real lover... She raised her surprising eyes to him demurely. "Thank you," she said with all apparent gratitude. "It was sweet of you to do that for Philip."
We can't change now, of course, with the guests all invited. That is, I suppose you do have guests!" Mrs. Hartwell's voice was aggrievedly despairing. "Oh, yes," smiled Billy, demurely. "We have guests invited and I'm afraid we can't change the time." "No, of course not; but it's too bad. I conclude there are announcements only, as I got no cards. "Announcements only," bowed Billy.
"I would rather you would send some one else, sir, and I'll assure her happiness in the meantime." "What! by marrying her? Humph! you've a good opinion of yourself! Wait till you're a captain, sir." "I hope I shall not have to wait long, sir," replied Edward, demurely. "By-the-bye," said the admiral, "did you not say you have notice of treasure concealed in those islands?"
If he preaches to me, won't I humor him 'to the top of his bent? that's all," was her secret resolution, as she sat demurely, with pursed-up lips, bending over her needlework. The honest and well-meaning old country clergyman hitched his chair a little nearer to the perverse young rebel, and gingerly for he was half afraid of his questionable subject entered into conversation with her.
There'll be no cops out to bother us, and not a wheel in sight. It'll do you good. Let me take you! I owe you that much for bein' so nice to me today. Will you go with me?" Mary hesitated. "I'll think it over and let you know." "Got a telephone?" "No." "Then you'll have to tell me before I go won't you?" "I suppose so," she answered demurely.
Now don't think I'd make that man a bishop just because he noticed and praised my gimcracks and inventions, and substitutes." Father Jos smiled, and demurely abased his eye. "Oh! then you don't know me as well as you think you do, father," said O'Shane.
"You have a fairly good appetite for a boy," remarked Ruth, "or for a white-haired lady either," she added demurely. Every one laughed and Joe groaned.
For while, from one point of view she looked up at them very demurely, as commissioned by God for the country's good; from another sight she disliked them, as ready to sacrifice their best and follow their worst members. Yet why should this wench dare to judge upon a matter so far beyond her, and form opinions which she knew better than declare before mother?
They had gathering friends, and no means of bringing them together. And the beauty of the site of Besworth made them enthusiastic. "Well, but," said Mr. Pole: "what does it lead to? Is there nothing to come after?" He explained: "You're girls, you know. You won't always stop with me. You may do just as well at Brookfield for yourselves, as over there." The ladies blushed demurely.
I wouldn't know a drying-room from a steam-laundry." Neale stopped short, and surveyed his companion with amusement and admiration. "Good for you!" he cried. "Tell the truth and shame the devil and set an example to all honest men. Mr. Welles, you have my esteem." The old man had a shy smile at this. "I don't tell the truth that way to everybody," he said demurely. Neale liked him more and more.
