Hemphill who, with a strong grasp on her little ones, was stemming the tide of humanity with a somewhat defiant mien, while her head was swinging around as if on a pivot, so determined was she not to miss the sight of a single decoration or picture, nor the passing of a single guest.
Du Brant made no English answer to this, but uttered some savage remarks in French. "Do you understand what all that means?" inquired Locker of Hemphill, who had been quietly listening to what had been going on. "Yes," said the other, "he is cursing you up hill, and down dale." "Oh," said Locker, "it sounds to me as if he were calculating his last week's expenses.
You're nice, but you're too entertaining." Again she plunged into her subject and for a few minutes worked diligently. A white scrap of paper rolled in a ball falling at her feet distracted her attention. She dropped her handkerchief over it in obedience to a slight cough from Sue Hemphill, and drew it into her lap. A second later it lay open in her book. "Annabel's changed her mind," it read.
After offering his respectful salutations, Mr. Hemphill, Mr. Easterfield's secretary in the central office of the D. and J., delivered without delay a package of which he was the bearer, and apologized for his valise, stating that Mr. Easterfield had told him he must spend the night at Broadstone.
I suppose you do, for I see you women in different ones at times, but my thought would be that they must grow upon you" he was looking at Joyce "as the calyx around a blossom. It all seems merged into you, somehow. I never felt it so before." Mrs. Phelps laughed with hearty enjoyment. "It's the cut of it, George! You never felt that way looking at me, or or Rachel Hemphill, say did you?"
"You've sort of got an idea that name gives you special dispensation, haven't you, Ruth kind of a free passport to the upper realms? Well, forget it! It hasn't. It wouldn't get you any farther with folks that count than Cross, or Ashe, or Hemphill. It's what you bring to your name; not what it brings to you. It's like what Miss North said the other day about life.
Carita would say when she was refused the pleasure of waiting upon her. "I don't believe Annabel Jackson has run a ribbon in her underwear this year. Mary Boyd always does it for her. She loves to do it. Peggy Austin waits on Sue Hemphill, hand and foot. Isabel Brooks is getting a terrible case on Wee Watts, too. By the way, Blue Bonnet, did I tell you?
"She could not do that," answered Mrs. Easterfield, "for I know he has not asked her." "Then he'd better skip around lively and do it," said Mr. Locker, "not only for his own sake, but for mine. If I should be cast aside for the Hemphill clothes I should have no faith in humanity. I would give up verse, and I would give up woman." "Don't be afraid of anything like that," said Mrs.
