"It's a right lovely mornin'," he remarked impersonally, tugging at his silver-gray mustache. Suddenly the waiting riders stiffened in their saddles. A ripple of shots sounded, followed by the shrill cowboy yell. Still the old Ranger sat his horse, coolly surveying his men. "Don't we get a look-in?" queried a cowboy. "Poco tiempo," said the Ranger softly.
If she agreed to it, he'd get in touch with the wardrobe mistress at the Globe, to-night. As for the money, he had a hundred dollars or so in his pocket, which she could take to start out with. Of course the only lie involved in all this was the warp of the whole fabric; that he was doing it, impersonally, for the success of the show. And that might well enough have been true.
"And how long do these spasms usually last?" Jean's head tilted toward Robert Grant Burns as impersonally as if she were indicating a horse with colic. But the camera man had gone as far as was wise, if he cared to continue working for Burns, and he made no reply whatever.
Besides, she painted pictures; he knew the aroma of fixitive, siccative, and burnt sienna; and her studio adjoined his sky drawing-room. He thought of this girl quite impersonally; she resembled a youthful beauty he had known might still know if he chose; for a man who can pay for his evening clothes need never deny himself the society he was bred to.
Chaff provoked the solemn retort: "One should be well groomed." He spoke impersonally, considering it bad form to use the first person singular. Amongst the small boys he ranked as the Petronius of the Lower School. One day the Caterpillar said grandiloquently, "You kids will oblige me by not shouting and yelling when you speak to me. I've a bit of a head." "What's wrong with it?" said Fluff.
He had been writing a note, or possibly an advertisement for work, with a stub of lead-pencil on a scrap of paper resting on his knee, and now he suddenly raised his eyes either in an abstracted search for the right word or because her appearance had startled him. Without hesitation she spoke to him. "Pardon me," she said, impersonally. "May I ask you some questions?"
"You cruel woman," she said, as if impersonally. But Gladys perceived in a moment that she had in mind her own arraignment, as if another were taxing her with a misdeed. "In this bitter black night, in this furious ice-storm, and you did not forbid it! You did not explain your need.
I'm astin' yer help." Dan looked Nance over in troubled silence. "Is she sixteen yet?" he asked as impersonally as if she had not been present. "Yes, an' past. I knowed they'd be scarin' up that dangerous trade business on me next. How long before the foreman'll be here?" "Any time now," said Dan. "I'll take you into his office." With a sinking heart, Nance followed them into the crowded room.
"Without goin' into any details or discussin' any ladies we know, my advice would be to make a clean breast of the whole thing," the little old man announced, avoiding Robert Morton's eyes and blowing a ring of smoke from his pipe impersonally toward the low ceiling. "Have it out with Zenas Henry an' set yourself right with the Belleport folks. You don't want to do nothin' under cover."
I don't want any trouble I'm even willing to take a good deal in the way of bluster, rather than have trouble. But I'm going to stay. See?" He waved his pipe in a gesture of finality and continued to smoke and to watch them impersonally, leaning against the door in that lounging negligence which is so irritating to a disputant.
