Not by merely tolerating the not too impossible men who joined her without sign from her, and not by merely accepting what they gave, could fifty dollars a week be made. She must dress herself in franker avowal of her profession, must look as expensive as her limited stock of clothing, supplemented by her own taste, would permit.
This was a novel order of madness to reveal itself in the recent inheritor of a great fortune. Tembarom's appeal grew franker; it took on the note of a too crude young fellow's misplaced confidence. "You do this for me," he said. "I'd give a farm to go on that boat. The Hutchinsons are sailing on it Mr. and Miss Hutchinson, the ones you saw at the house last night."
The sisters, Miss Stella and Miss Clara, Miss Lucy and Miss Marianne, did their own teaching, and did it in a perfectly unconventional way to the twenty or so girls who made up their school. When Nelly came home to her father at seventeen years of age, it would not have been easy to find a fresher, franker specimen of young girlhood.

Britling was probably much franker and more open-eyed with himself and the universe than a great number of intelligent people, and yet there were quite a number of aspects of his relations with his wife, with people about him, with his country and God and the nature of things, upon which he turned his back with an attentive persistence.
Against these covert forces working for the destruction of our civilization, our Government developed an unsuspected efficiency, sometimes through its department of justice, sometimes through a vast and silent civilian body of detectives working all over the country and again through its franker agencies of the military arm.
"You think, on the whole, I might even someday ?" She tried to meet his eyes with a pleasant frankness, and perhaps she was franker than she meant to be.
