I'm reading a great many books, and they're all about love and marriage. I love you, and I'm pretty. Is it because I'm an Indian ?" "Hell! That wouldn't faze me, Kiddo. You skin the white dames around this village. But you better cut out them books." "I'd make you a good wife." "Sure! You're aces. But I'd make a bum husband. I ain't got the breath to blow out a candle." Mr.
Thoughts such as these were in his mind, and their resolute nature must have been reflected in his face, for a voice aroused him from his meditations. "It don't seem to faze you much, partner. I s'pose you came heeled?" Phillips looked up and into a sullen, angry face. "It nearly kills me," he smiled. "I'm the worst-heeled man in the crowd." "Well, it's a darned outrage. A ton of grub?
"That pony is worth forty dollars," said Mike. "Sure. And you're as good as a squaw-man this minute. You're betrothed." "Am I?" The idy didn't seem to faze Mike. "If that's the case," said he, "I reckon I'll play the string out. I sort of like it as far as I've gone." "I wish she'd gave us that cream-colored mare or hers," I said. "It's worth two of this one." "I'll get it to-day," Mike declared.
"If you don't hold your mouths I'll turn you all out o' here, the whole lot of you," he cried with many oaths. "G'wan, minister... don't let 'em faze you...." "Now is Christ risen from the dead and become the first-fruits of them that slept.... Behold, I show you a mystery.
Nevertheless, the old pill continued to come early and often, and there seemed no escape; for he was continually stealing in on their privacy at the most unexpected times and acting as if he were sure of a welcome. The children froze him, and were rude, and Julia Cloud withdrew farther and farther; but nothing seemed to faze him.
The preacher, he preached along, and tried to act like as if nowthun' had happened, but it was no use; nobody didn't hardly pay no attention to him 'ceptun' the stranger himself; he never took his eyes off Elder Grove; some thought he was tryun' to charm him, like a snake does a bird; but it didn't faze the elder." "Elder too old a bird?" the Squire suggested.
Maybe I wa'n't as enthusiastic as the case called for. He springs that smile of his. "Hardly a flattering way to put it," says he. "Would you be disappointed if I was?" "Well," says I, eyin' him up and down, "you don't strike me as such a swell uncle, you know." Don't faze him a bit, either. "Our near relatives are seldom quite satisfactory," says he.
"Jake Houck. He was down at the camp for dinner to-day came in with the boss." "He's no friend of mine," she said sulkily. "Don't blame you a bit. Mr. Houck looks like one hard citizen. I'd hate to cross him." "He's as tough as an old range bull. No matter what you say or do you can't faze him," she replied wearily. "You still hate him?" "More 'n ever. Most o' the time. He just laughs.
Kurt was angry and did not care. His appearance, however, did not faze the strangers. One of them, an American, was a man of about thirty years, clean-shaven, square-jawed, with light, steely, secretive gray eyes, and a look of intelligence and assurance that did not harmonize with his motley garb.
The chances are she didn't bat an eye all last night excitement, you know, the crowd, swimming Mountain Lad and such things. Now ordinary things that'd keep most women awake, like danger, or storm at sea, and such things, Dick says don't faze her. She can sleep like a baby, he says, when the town she's in is being bombarded or when the ship she's in is trying to claw off a lee shore.
