Through the open window of the library the top of the Squire's head could be seen over the back of an easy-chair. Mackenzie joined the little group under the lime. "Couldn't find her," he said shortly. "She'll turn up at tea-time," said Jim equably. The clear eyes of the twins were fixed on Mackenzie. They had run round to the front of the house on hearing the wheels of Jim's cart on the gravel.
"What is it?" his wife demanded quickly. "Will you give me a cigarette, Tom?" he asked equably, indicating that he preferred not to mention his business, whatever it might be. Cairy handed him his cigarette case. "These are so much better than the brand Con supplies me with," he observed lightly. He examined the cigarette closely, then lit it, and remarked: "The train was beastly hot.
Harris; "we have all enjoyed it. Thank you very much." There was in it the oddest mixture of the supreme feminine and the superior officer. Harris, as he took the book, had no alternative. "Good-evening, then, Captain," said he, and went, stumbling at the door. "Mr. Harris," said Laura equably, "found salvation about a month ago.
"You been wallowing in the nosepaint and letting yore imagination run on the range too much." "Maybe," Racey said, equably. "Maybe. You can't tell. As a young one I had a powerful imagination. I might have it yet." Jack Harpe gazed long and silently at Racey Dawson. The latter returned the stare with interest.
While thus, therefore, my life passed on equably and tranquilly, many mouths glided over, and I found myself already a year at home, without it appearing more than a few weeks.

Mr. Braden remarked equably, "but you've got plenty of time and money to fool with such things, if you've a mind to. Them don't amount to a hill of beans in politics.
With a swift movement Pinky unpinned the towel, unwound it, dabbed with it tenderly at her mother's chin and brow, rolled it into a vicious wad and hurled it through the open doorway. "Now just what does that mean?" said Mrs. Brewster equably. "Take off your hat and coat, Pinky, but don't treat them that way unless that's the way they're doing in New York. Everything is so informal since the war."
"Yes, Polly Daverill," said he, "I thought you dead and buried, years ago. I've had a rough time of it, since then, across the water." He paused a moment; then said quite clearly, almost passionlessly: "God curse them all!" He repeated the words, even more equably the second time; then with a rough bear-hug of the arm that gripped her waist: "What have you got to say about it, hay?
The care of one important body or soul becomes so engrossing, that all the noises of the outer world begin to come thin and faint into the parlour with the regulated temperature; and the tin shoes go equably forward over blood and rain. To be overwise is to ossify; and the scruple-monger ends by standing stockstill.
"I deny nothing, I affirm nothing right now. I say that you must have a reason for what you state." "You put the incriminating evidence in del Rio's trunk," she ran on hurriedly. "The canvas bags of gold. Didn't you?" "Reason?" he insisted equably. "You took Caleb Patten's fountain pen! I saw you." He lifted his brows at her. Then he laughed softly.
