Besides, Alan says he likes your looks better than he does Florence's." "Does he?" And Polly flushed with pleasure. "Yes, he told mamma so the other day; you know boys have queer tastes," answered Molly flatteringly. "But I wish I did know of something to take off freckles and tan," said Polly, rubbing her cheeks with a vicious force.
"It seems an age since you went away," she said flatteringly, "and so many things have happened one of the big trees blew down on the lawn, and Jack Powell broke his arm and and Mr. Morson has been back twice, you know." "Yes, I know," he answered, "but I rather think the tree's the biggest thing, isn't it?" "Well, it is the biggest," admitted Virginia, sweetly.
There I was very graciously and flatteringly received by Frau Kunst, the wife of a German merchant, in a drawing-room whose windows commanded a view of the wide and busy street, and where I was very well served. I dined in common with the other boarders and visitors, and often invited Alexander Seroff, whom I had formerly known in Lucerne, to be my guest at table.
Five minutes afterwards Gerald, who had exchanged his trusty cutlass, for the sword he had been so flatteringly permitted to retain, found himself in the leading boat of the little return squadron, and seated at the side of his generous captor.
Jimmie Dale drew in Clayton's face most excellently, if somewhat flatteringly; and then, with a little flourish of pride, wrote under the drawing: "The Man Who Captured the Gray Seal." "That's a cracking good sketch!" pronounced the reporter at his side. "Let the inspector see it." "What is it?" demanded Clayton, scowling. Jimmie Dale handed him the notebook modestly.
The girls, as yet, call her impersonally, flatteringly and familiarly, "little housekeeper." She is spare, spry, just a trifle squinting, with a rosy complexion, and hair dressed in a little curly pompadour; she adores actors preferably stout comedians. Toward Emma Edwardovna she is ingratiating. The fifth person, finally, is the local district inspector, Kerbesh.
From time to time they got copies of the Western papers containing full reports of Jimmy Grayson's canvass, and none of them, except the Monitor, ever spoke flatteringly of the Honorable Herbert or his efforts to put the campaign on a higher plane.
I never ventured to try to take him anywhere; he very much dislikes meeting strangers." "Tell me about him, will you?" Dyce could speak only of Lord Dymchurch's personal and mental characteristics; of his circumstances he knew nothing more than could be gathered from rumour. "Let me make a suggestion," said Mrs. Toplady, with a flatteringly intimate air.
Patrick knew one of the younger O'Connells, and had been flatteringly noticed by the great Dan himself, who had approved the idea of his going to London, hoped to see him there some day, and had prophesied that this young friend of his would do great things for the cause by his pen, and be conspicuous among the saviours of Ireland.
Duplessis made no pretensions to vie with the magnificent existence of Louvier. His house, though agreeably situated and flatteringly styled the Hotel Duplessis, was of moderate size, very unostentatiously furnished; nor was it accustomed to receive the brilliant motley crowds which assembled in the salons of the elder financier.
