Wish we could get a hundred more like him! Hullo! Who's next?" The newcomer had a huge reddish-brown head with bulging cheeks; his blotched body, adorned with wicked spines, tapered slimly off to an inconspicuous tail. "Horn-pout! Toad sculpin! Bah! Get out!" Jim slat the fish disgustedly off, and he sculled slowly downward. Two more bare hooks.
Nor must one suppose, because the horse was an inconspicuous part of the show, that he was therefore an inexpensive part. One man was to be seen here driving a four-in-hand of black stallions which had cost forty thousand; there were other men who drove only one horse, and had paid forty thousand for that. Half a million was a moderate estimate of the cost of the "string" which some would exhibit.
Many other faint stars are scattered about, however, and Tycho's measures were not sufficiently exact to enable us to identify the precise position of his star. If the phenomenon was due to a collision, no reappearance of the star is to be expected. Camelopardalus is a very inconspicuous constellation, yet it furnishes considerable occupation for the telescope.
As a fact, he has to describe an incident which occurs nowhere else in Homer, though it may often have occurred in practice a hurried council during a demoralised night, and the hasty arraying of two spies, who wish to be lightfooted and inconspicuous.
Berenice actually thought to seek her out in some inconspicuous way, but, as it chanced, one night her curiosity was rewarded without effort. She was at the opera with friends, and her escort nudged her arm. "Have you noticed Box 9 the lady in white satin with the green lace shawl?" "Yes." Berenice raised her glasses. "Mrs. Frank Algernon Cowperwood, the wife of the Chicago millionaire.
In the long intervals the boy sat, inconspicuous in a corner of the fore-deck, watching the gayly dressed ruffians of the crew, as they threw dice or quarrelled noisily over their winnings. He was assigned to no watch, but usually went below at the same time as Job Howland, thus keeping out of the way of Daggs, the man with the broken nose.
The freedom of it, after the restrictions of even the most easy-going private school, is intoxicating. The change is almost as great as that from public school to 'Varsity. For Mike the path was made particularly easy. The only drawback to going to a big school for the first time is the fact that one is made to feel so very small and inconspicuous.
Val was a slight, fair, pleasant-looking man of eight or nine and twenty, quiet of movement, friendly-mannered and as inconspicuous as his own rather worn grey tweeds: one of a class, till he raised his eyes: and then?
Precisely at the time Courtlandt stepped into the automobile outside the war-office, a scene, peculiar in character, but inconspicuous in that it did not attract attention, was enacted in the Gare de l'Est. Two sober-visaged men stood respectfully aside to permit a tall young man in a Bavarian hat to enter a compartment of the second-class.
I was keeping an inconspicuous eye on Edwards as I reassured him. "'S all 'ite," he repeated with a falling inflection this time, and finished placidly, "You want know 'bout lady?" "What's all this?" Edwards spoke low. "About a lady who came to see Mr. Gilbert last night," I explained shortly; then, "Who was she, Chung?" "Not see um good." The Chinaman shook his head gravely.
