But he didn't say anything about not telephoning to you or seeing you outside his confounded house, so I suppose there's no necessity for me feeling badly about it, is there?" This was a pretty direct feeler, but Florry parried it with feminine skill. "Of course you can telephone me whenever you get to port. You mustn't take dad too seriously, Matt. Really he's very fond of you."
Glutted with victims, exhausted and sluggish, he was pounced upon by hundreds, hidden from view by a living envelop of black, which pulsed and throbbed with his death-throes. A feeler reached out, to be bitten off; then another, to no avail. His strength was gone, and the assailants bit and burrowed until they reached a vital part, when the great mass assumed a spherical form and throbbed no more.
"I am surprised," he observed to the driver, as a "feeler," "that you haven't changed bodies." "Mr. Wrandall ordered the limousine, sir," said the chauffeur. "Oh, I see. Keeps it on hand for rainy days, I suppose." "It's Mrs. Wrandall's idea," explained the man. "Women are fussy about their hair. We always have a limousine handy." "It is a handy thing to have about," said Mr.
I don't care for anything." "But you love somebody?" "I hope I love my father. I don't know. I don't feel as if I did." "And there's your cousin Percy." I confess this was a feeler I put out. "Percy's a fool!" she said, with some show of indignation, which I hailed, for more reasons than one. "But you enjoyed the sermon this morning, did you not?" "I don't know.
He had trotted along with his half-closed eyes on the ground before him, picking the smoothest path for his desert-weary feet. He did not look up until Johnny pulled sharply on the reins and gave a startling whoop built around the word "Whoa." Sandy's bulging eyes got a full-front, close-up view of the "thing what set." He saw a wicked nose with a feeler about twice as high as he was.
Skill in hunting, next to success on the war-path, constitutes the great merit of an Indian; and it is ever his delight to show that he possesses it. No sooner did le Bourdon throw out his feeler, therefore, than a general exclamation proclaimed the readiness of all the young men, in particular, to join in the chase.
If you let me have a Feeler and Stilson sewing-machine for fifty dollars, I will have a good notice put in the Daily Bugle." Mr. Sharps whistles a minute. He thought he could not do it. No, he was too poor. "Well, then, Willie," said Sammy, "we'll go across the street and try the agent of the Hillrocks and Nibbs machine. I think Mr. Betweens will take my offer." "O!" said Mr.
It gave him the headache to think of the things the fellows fellows of a deplorable physique and girls, too, did there. For his part, he looked forward to the day when, by a further subscription of ten-and-six, he would enroll himself as a member of the Athletic Club. It was as if the Poly. put out feeler after feeler to draw him to itself. Only to one thing he would not be drawn.
What if this book be, after all, a sort of pilot-balloon, to show my huge Nassau the way the wind blows a feeler as to which and which may please? Whether or not this be so, I will still confess on, emptying my brain of booklets, and, if by happy possibility I can keep my secret, shall hear unsuspected, friend, your verdict.
He had, as I believed, put forward "the round tower," in the first instance, as a feeler; and he would follow it up, in due time, by an appeal of a more personal nature to Oscar's well-filled purse.
