Seventon is exclusive. But I'll just let him know she's got to come. Now, who else, girls?" "The Huntingdons might come if they knew that it was this sort of an affair," Selina remarked, thoughtfully. "And Mr. Seaton," Louise added. "I'm sure he's most gentlemanly." "I don't want gentlemanly people this time," Mr. Bullsom declared, "I want gentle-people. That's all there is about it.
But you must admit that it is different with people who aren't gentle-people at all." "I'm not a fool, and I don't pretend that I'm going to make bosom friends of all Walter's patients, though I am going to do what I can to make things pleasant all round. We shall see our friends in London, of course.
'How could you talk such nonsense, Cynthia? said Mrs. Gibson, as the girls followed her upstairs. 'You know you are not a dunce. It is all very well not to be a blue-stocking, because gentle-people don't like that kind of woman; but running yourself down, and contradicting all I said about your liking for Byron, and poets and poetry to Osborne Hamley of all men, too!

There were a few other gentle-people in the church besides themselves, and a very fair sprinkling of farmers and villagers. The service was simple and hearty; the village schoolmaster played the organ, and Mr. Miller, a fine-looking, grey-headed man, delighted Agatha at least, by his earnest, faithful preaching. Coming out into the churchyard, Agatha was stopped by Miss Miller hastening up to her.
'But s'pose, said Joey, after a glassy look at his future appearance in the position alluded to, 'that any of your gentle-people come to see ye, and when I opens the door and lets 'em in a swinging big lodger stalks downstairs. What will 'em think? Up will go their eye-glasses at one another till they glares each other into holes. My gracious!

James the housekeeper in her simplest communication with Dowie quite touched that respectable person's heart. "She's a young lady," Mrs. James remarked to Dowie. "And a credit to you and her governess, Mrs. Dowson. Young ladies have gone almost out of fashion." "Mademoiselle Valle had spent her governessing days among the highest. My own places were always with gentle-people.
Your quite nice people would have been still nicer had they realized that to talk about one's poverty though not so bad as talking about one's wealth is only one degree better; and that perfect gentle-people would refer neither to the one nor to the other." "I see." Elisabeth's tone was subdued.
Brooks and ask him to dine with us in a friendly way one night the week after next, when the election is over and done with." "In a friendly way, pa?" Selina repeated, doubtfully. "But we can't ask these other people whom we know so slightly like that and, besides, Mr. Brooks might not dress if we put it like that." "A nice lot you know about gentle-people and their ways," Mr.
When I was in Tozer's shop to-day I always go there, though they are Dissenters; after all, you know, most tradespeople are Dissenters; some are sorry for it, some think it quite natural that gentle-people and tradespeople should think differently in religious matters; however, what I say is, you can't tell the difference in butter and bacon between church and dissent, can you now? and Tozer's is the best shop in the town, certainly the best shop.
