You have not yourself alone to consider, remember, Dora; you might not mind, but you have the rest of us to think of, some of whom would mind very much."

But Annie was determined to empty out her whole budget of warnings.
It would be nicer than finding gold." "You do talk silly slithers," Hugh said derisively. "Who ever found a beautiful orange tree in the middle of a desert? You might find gold and bribe an Arab to give you water." "You might find an orange tree in an oasis," Grizzel said huffily. "I am going to bathe my feet in the creek. Go and look for your old gold. You won't find it."
Molly felt the tears come into her eyes a certain warmth creep about her heart. "No," she said smiling; "but I'm glad you will love it if it ever comes!" This was, of course, exactly what she did not mean to say. "If we got Miss Marshall because of Uncle George's money," said Belle, huffily, departing, "I wish he hadn't died! There isn't a thing in this world for her to do."
"Come around here where nobody can see or overhear us," she said. He followed her down the steps to a sheltered rustic seat. "You haven't read it?" she asked. "Read it? No!" Will answered a little huffily. "You asked me not to until I had seen you." Tilly colored, and then, "You are a gentleman!" she burst out vehemently. "Well, I hope so," Will answered.

"As though Miss Estelle knew what a nickel was, let alone a slot machine, although I have seen some of them." "I don't see anything so funny," said Roger huffily. "Perhaps she didn't know, but she was polite enough not to laugh and said the place to get weighed was the hair-dresser's " "Oh, come off," said Win. "That's too much, even for us."
"You're the best turned-out woman of my acquaintance," he said approvingly, with a laughable struggle for the tone of a middle-aged man of the world. "How many ladies of fashion do you know, my child?" enquired Robinetta, pulling on her gloves. "I see a lot of 'em off and on," Carnaby answered somewhat huffily, "and they don't call me a child either!" "Don't they?

"Yes," he answered, sulkily, "I think so too." They shook hands huffily and he went away. When he arrived among the students he found that they had appropriated everything of his which would conduce to their comfort. He was furious over it. But to his bitter speeches they replied in jibes. "Rufus is himself again. Admire his angelic disposition. See him smile. Gentle soul."
"I don't want you to love me," she said indignantly; "I don't think you know how to love." "Neither can you know, then," retorted Tommy, huffily, "for there's nobody for you to love." "Yes, there is," she said, "and I do love her and she loves me." "But wha is she?" "That girl."
