"Don't bother the poor fellow, and hold your tongue, Harry," said the accountant, who now began to tread more cautiously as he approached the place where the traps were set. "How many traps have you?" inquired Harry, in a low tone. "Three," replied the accountant. "Do you know I have a very strange feeling about my heels or rather a want of feeling," said Hamilton, smiling dubiously.
The little handmaiden eagerly racked her brain for some brilliant idea; and finally suggested that Cook was very fond of making "shape." "Shape? Oh, I see," said Toni a trifle dubiously. "You mean a blanc-mange or a cream. But I don't think it would do for tea." Maggie thought, respectfully, that it would do fine. In her last place her mistress always had a shape when company was coming to tea.
Five minutes afterwards he was on his way to see Redbud, followed dubiously by Longears, who evidently had not made up his mind on the subject of his master's identity. In order to explain the reception which Verty met with, it will be necessary to precede him.
Hunger, which he had forgotten in the novelty of his surroundings, began to manifest itself again. He got up and gleaned his aviator's helmet from a branch of the mahogany hatrack and looked at it dubiously, wishing that it was his Big Four Stetson instead. "What I'm ready for right now is chuck," he said pointedly. "I ain't fortune teller enough to give you any line on my future.
"I can do nothing for her," he said, scowling at that work of art. "I do not believe any living man can do anything for her. But I do not say exactly that there is no hope." "Come, David, I am in no mood for guessing riddles. Speak plainly, man, and don't torment me." David frowned dubiously and poked his finger through the hole which represented the eye of the king of beasts.
'He's rather like old Ravengar, perhaps, said Albert dubiously. 'You've hit it! Simon almost shouted. 'It is Ravengar. 'This man's got no beard. 'That comes well from a detective, that does! said Simon scornfully. 'It needn't have cost him more than threepence to have his beard shaved off, need it?
Mr Richmond obeyed, dubiously eyeing the two boys as he did so. "These are your sons, I presume?" said he to Mrs Cruden. "They are," said she. Mr Richmond rose and solemnly shook hands with each of the lads, informing each with a smile as he did so that he was pleased to make his acquaintance. "You wish the young gentlemen to remain, perhaps?" he inquired, as he resumed his seat.
She looked dubiously at the little bunch in her hand, glanced at the lawn next door, which offered no favourable prospect; then went thoughtfully into the house, left her twenty-two violets in a bowl of water, and came quickly out again, her brow marked with a frown of decision. She went to a trolley-line and took a car to the outskirts of the city where a new park had been opened.
Every one stared frankly at her, as she said languidly: "Perhaps it's I you're looking for? Mr. Artheris " "Yes, that's right!" said Matty, relieved. He wiped his forehead. He paused, a little at a loss, eying the other ladies of the caste dubiously. The girl called Barbara Toland now came forward with her ready graciousness, and the two girls looked fairly into each other's eyes.
Flora shook her pretty head dubiously, and kissed her husband again and again; and when he was actually sitting in the coach, she ran after him to kiss him once more, and then went out on the balcony and followed him with her eyes, whilst Rudolf leaned out of the coach, and so they kept on bidding each other adieu with hat and handkerchief till the coach was out of sight.
