There were financial reasons why he did not care to have it come to the ears of his brother-in-law just now.

He had a gun, and he "cut down" on the group with disconcerting realism. "Hands up!" he intoned fearsomely. "I am the mysterious lone bandit of the boulevards. Your jewels are the price of your lives!" The six-shooter wavered, looking bleakly at one and then another. After the first stunned interval, a shout of laughter went up from those behind. "Good! Good idea!" one approved.

The touch of the slippery, mousy bodies was fearsomely repugnant to her; the very sight of the great, skull-bearing things began to sicken her physically. A dreadful, almost impalpable floss from their handled wings and bodies smeared her hands; the place vibrated with their tiny goblin cries.

"Gawd!" said Glad, her chin almost on her knees, her eyes staring fearsomely. "S'pose it was an' us sittin' 'ere an' not knowin' it an' no one knowin' it nor gettin' the good of it.

"You are the son of T'yonny." "My father, Mist' Howard, dead," he said. "You Menike like him?" Before I could answer something entered my ear and something my nose. These somethings buzzed and bit fearsomely. I coughed and sputtered. An old woman on the bank was sitting in the smudge of a fire of cocoanut husks.

For rum-making, mind you, is a government monopoly; and to keep a government dispensary assures respectability if not preeminence. Moreover, the saddest of precisians could find no fault with the conduct of the shop. Customers drank there in the lowest of spirits and fearsomely, as in the shadow of the dead; for Madama's ancient and vaunted lineage counteracted even the rum's behest to be merry.

You know that it will be a good three months before François de Brie can stand up to be wed. You say to yourself that much may happen in three months. So it may. Therefore will your bridegroom be at hand to-morrow morning." She made no rejoinder, but her eyes, wide like a hunted animal's, moved fearsomely, loathingly, to Lucas.

"No, they won't; 'twill be another dago, likely " "Whist!" Patsy raised a silencing finger and looked fearsomely over her shoulder to the bed back of her. Its inmate lay covered to the cheek, but one could catch a glimpse of tangled black hair and a swarthy skin. Patsy rose and went softly over to the bed; her movement disturbed the woman, who opened dumb, reproachful eyes.

The ill-fated Duncan was slain; the Witches of Endor capered fearsomely about their fearsome cauldron of snaky, froggy horrors; and then taking some liberties with the theme as set down by the original author the operator presented a picture wherein Macbeth, tortured by sleeplessness and hag-ridden with remorse, saw, in imagination, the dripping blood upon his hands and vainly sought to scour it off.
