"You can please yourself," said Mildred stiffly. She did not like being reproached, and, retiring huffily into a haughty silence, she sat by listlessly while Philip made the preparations for their departure.

Raikes, 'how young gals can let some of you men- folk mislead 'em. She turned from him huffily, and addressed Evan: 'The old gentleman is gone, sir. He slept on a chair, breakfasted, and was off before eight. He left word, as the child was born on his birthright, he'd provide for it, and pay the mother's bill, unless you claimed the right.
I felt she would fly at some one. "We thought we should not get any dinner, Mrs. Gussie," she said, huffily. "Folks are generally down in their own houses!" I took no notice of this remark. "I am so sorry to be late, Lady Wakely," I said, addressing her and the other women, "but my husband is not well, and, I fear, will not be able to come in to dinner. He must have caught a chill out shooting."
"I dare say you don't believe in fairies nor brownies either," she ventured, watching him out of the corner of her eye. The words should have given the knight the hint he wanted, but he was too cross to understand it just then.

Here's the book. Look it over while I'm smoking." Once when the clash had a suspicious ring of familiarity, he grinned. "What's the matter?" demanded Don huffily. "What are you laughing at? Me?"
"Nothing at present," said Paul. "I don't speak to you merely because I don't happen to have the ah pleasure of your acquaintance." "Oh, very well, then; I daresay you know best," said the other huffily.

"Well," said Kenny huffily, "laugh your head off if you want to. I mean what I say." The old man chuckled. "I'd be disappointed," he said, "if you didn't." Kenny stared at him in intense disgust.
Palford found himself forced to exclaim mentally not once, but a hundred times, in the course of their talk.
