She saw Erik Valborg coming, in an ancient highwater suit, tramping sullenly and alone, striking at the rails with a stick. For a second she unreasoningly wanted to avoid him, but she kept on, and she serenely talked about God, whose voice, Hugh asserted, made the humming in the telegraph wires. Erik stared, straightened. They greeted each other with "Hello." "Hugh, say how-do-you-do to Mr.
If you will kindly permit it, I wish to express, before I go, my very sincere regret for what I was rude enough to say, when I last had the honor of seeing you. May I hope to be forgiven? How-do-you-do, Eunice? Have you enjoyed your holiday in the country?" Eunice neither moved nor answered.
"They rounds up the gesabe at last at a place on the coast, but he escapes as easy as how-do-you-do.
Well, at five " "Wow!" "Shadow is onto the game already!" "Say, Shadow, give us a chance to say how-do-you-do first, won't you?" "I believe Shadow would try to tell a story if he was going to a funeral." "Oh, say!" burst out the former story-teller of Oak Hall. "That puts me in mind of another. Two Irishmen went to a funeral and " "Shut him off!" "Put a popcorn ball in his mouth!"
A few minutes later he stood beside Rose's worn desk. "How-do-you-do, once more, Miss Rose of Sharon. You're not the Bible's Rose of Sharon, are you?" he joshed a bit awkwardly.

"Hold on a minute!" he cried; "before lighting this match, let us see if the gas has been escaping. Setting fire to a mixture of air and hydrogen would make a pretty how-do-you-do! Such an explosion would infallibly burst the Projectile, which so far seems all right, though I'm blest if I can tell whether we're moving or not."

There comes Peter Ronningen, passed by good luck this year, but forced to turn out in a jacket borrowed from Peer, as the tailor wasn't ready with his own new things. The boys say "how-do-you-do" and try to smile like grown-up folks.
It was then that David's mother, who thought she had done her best in the courteous commonplace of how-do-you-do suddenly did better; she stooped down and kissed Elizabeth's cheek. "You poor child!" she said; "oh, you poor child!"
When Willy Snyders came in, as he usually did on his way from his work to luncheon for the purpose of saying "how-do-you-do" to Bonifacius Ritter and art, it seemed to Frederick that he had been awakened from a dream and called back to a strange life. "I am sorry to have to leave work and go to lunch. Lunch is really a very disturbing thing," he confessed.
"That's a pretty how-do-you-do!" he said, when he had got his breath back; and then he added, with a laugh, "I suppose that settles poor Charlie's chances." "I'm glad you've come to that conclusion," said the other, as he hung up the receiver. This episode gave Montague quite a shock.
