It's awfully jolly of you people to ask me," he smiled, engagingly, at Mrs. Farwell. "Why, we're delighted to have you, Frank," she assured him. Bob, who had been looking out of the window all this time, turned abruptly. "Mother, Polly doesn't want any tea, and there's loads of time for a walk; do you mind?" he asked. His mother laughed. "Not if Polly doesn't, but I should think she'd be tired."
"Promise me on your bright new sophomore honor that you'll offer your polite regrets to the other half of that important engagement of yours and attend my meeting," appealed Louise. "Well," Hilda looked concerned, "I could see the girl this afternoon and change the date." She smiled engagingly at Louise. "Of course you will," Louise agreed, answering the smile. "You see I know you, Hilda Moore."
Insensibly the antipathy that Lord Colambre had originally felt to Lady Dashfort wore off; her faults, he began to think, were assumed; he pardoned her defiance of good-breeding, when he observed that she could, when she chose it, be most engagingly polite. It was not that she did not know what was right, but that she did not think it always for her interest to practise it.
But she smiled at him brightly, and waited until Baumberger had gone lumbering with rather uncertain steps to the store, where he puffed up the steps and sat heavily down in the shade where Pete Hamilton was resting after the excitement of the past thirty-six hours. "I lied to you, Mr. Hart," she confessed, engagingly.

His smile had been bland and his manner courteous; he now resembled a buffalo with a bullet in it. "The beastly thing won't come right!" he roared. Another young man reclined upon a deck-chair in company with three cushions. His appearance was equally artistic, but he seemed less strenuous. He was pale, slim, rather pretty than handsome, and engagingly polite.
Instantly her face brightened. "Yes. But come in, will you not?" She turned and placed the package on the table, and took one of two chairs near the alcove. The azalea was so near that its vivid flowers seemed to cast a reflection on her cheeks. "I presume you mean my tract in the Wenatchee Mountains?" she went on engagingly. "A few miles above Hesperides Vale." "Well, yes."
"An' I ain't big enough to get to make money at any other job." "I want to see that engine-man," muttered Lin. "I don't like your smokin' friend." "Pete Goode? Why, he's awful smart. Don't you think he's smart?" "Smart's nothin'," observed Mr. McLean. "Pete has learned me and Sidney a lot," pursued Billy, engagingly.
After a short preamble in which he set forth his view of the Patterson-Pratt case and a clearsighted view it was he commenced asking questions. They were such amazingly impudent questions that they nearly took my breath away. But he asked them in a manner so engagingly innocent that I found myself answering them before I was aware of it.
James was in excellent spirits, and Isabella most engagingly placid. Her tenderness for her friend seemed rather the first feeling of her heart; but that at such a moment was allowable; and once she gave her lover a flat contradiction, and once she drew back her hand; but Catherine remembered Henry's instructions, and placed it all to judicious affection.
