Come out and have lunch with me, and we'll do a matinee afterwards." Harold went out with him happily. It would be pleasant to accept the editorship of The Evening Surprise without giving up the Governmental work which was so dear to him, and the Assistant Secretary's words made this possible for a year or so anyhow.

She much preferred a mild spree with one of her own cronies. Ed was very careful of her at street crossings and going down steps, and joggled her elbow a good deal. This irked her, though she tried not to show it. She preferred a matinée, or a good picture or a concert with Sarah, or Vinie, or Julia. They could giggle, and nudge and comment like girls together, and did.

The result was that on the first quiet day Professor Hemenway and his assistant gave a matinee performance on the deck of the Nantucket, at which all who could possibly be spared were present. To some of the sailors it was a novelty, and the magician's tricks actually inspired some with the feeling that he was possessed of supernatural powers. "Will you lend me your hat, Mr.

She had a very substantial father and mother, who seemed to devote themselves to her wishes, some younger brothers, he had seen them pushed from the drawing-room the day of the matinée, a sister near her age, not yet out. Caroline had apologized for her sister's crying while listening to his music. "She was unsophisticated still, and had not forgotten her boarding-school nonsense."

They attended the matinee and saw Wonota between the two performances and had dinner with her at the local hotel. After dinner they all went to an attorney's office, where the papers in the case were ready, and Wonota signed her new contract and Helen and Jennie were two of the witnesses thereto. Mr. Hammond could not be present, but he had trusted to Ruth's good sense and business acumen.

I have seats for a matinée to-morrow. I'd much rather go with a brother than with one of the girls." "I would be delighted," he answered unsuspectingly, "but unfortunately I have an engagement that takes me out of town." "We'll go next week, then Wednesday." "A week is too long to wait. Let me take you to a matinée on Saturday." Jane hesitated. At times her conscience troubled her not a little.

He was always going to dinners or dances, entertaining members of visiting theatrical companies; and on Friday night my mother usually received a telegram, saying that he would arrive the next day with a party of friends whom he had inadvertently asked to lunch and a matinee. It was after one of these weekly visits that my mother wrote Richard the following: Monday Night.

"You look a perfect matinee idol. Have a drink?" Spike's eyes gleamed as he reached for the decanter. He took a seat. "Cigar, Spike?" "Sure. T'anks, boss." Jimmy lighted his pipe. Spike, after a few genteel sips, threw off his restraint, and finished the rest of his glass at a gulp. "Try another," suggested Jimmy. Spike's grin showed that the idea had been well received.

"If I'm going to her matinee it's simply in the hope of meeting my friend young Lord George Eldrett, who wrote to me from London to give me an appointment at the Princess's. And I admit that hers is the only salon where I find somebody to talk to." "And so," asked Amadieu in an ironical way, "you have now gone over to Anarchism?"

I fell asleep by-and-bye; and out of my dreams, which was troubled and didn't bring nothing definite, I got the general impression that Mrs. Markham wasn't all right and that I'd been fooled.
