Francis, King of France!" he continued hoarsely; and then a peculiar smile, mocking, bitter, and almost savage, came upon his, lips as he gazed piercingly at his companion. "No, Hurst," he said meaningly, "I know no King of France. He would not dare to beard me in my own home like this.
Hemstead, you look as if at a funeral. What are you thinking of?" Following an impulse of his open nature, he looked directly into Lottie's face, and replied, "You." She blushed slight'y, but said with a laugh, "That is frank," but added, meaningly, "I am surprised you cannot find anything better to think about." "I think Mr. Hemstead shows excellent judgment," said Mr.
"There's a happy crowd!" cried Tom after they had passed and bowed and smiled. "No happier than we are," said Dick as he looked meaningly at Dora. "You are right, Dick," she answered very earnestly. "Boys, I've got a proposition to make," said Dick, one Friday afternoon, as he and his brothers, with Songbird and Stanley, were strolling along the river bank. "All right.
"That'll not do," said Shorty with stern imperiousness. You're to go right back with me." Shorty enjoyed the manifest consternation in Billings's face as he heard this summons.

He pulled his nose with a quick gesture habitual to him, and answered slowly and meaningly: "The government's a good husband and pays regular wages, Mademoiselle. I'd stick to government." "I am not asking for a divorce, Monsieur."
Gagabu and Ameni glanced meaningly at each other, and the high-priest then hastened away, as already he had remained too long away from the banquet. Before he got into his chariot he commanded the guard to return to their posts, and took it upon himself to inform the Regent that his guest would remain in his tent till the festival was over; the soldiers unhesitatingly obeyed him.
"And I, Trevalyon, shall so lose myself in the intoxicating sweetness of the hour as to forget that on my return to England I have to enter the arena of the strife of tongues, and combat Dame Rumour in facing a 'difficulty." At the last word be looked meaningly at Vaura, and with quickened heart-beats she remembered his flowers, and knew what would come when the 'difficulty' was faced and removed.
He said there was no immediate danger," she went on steadily, "because the child's lungs are still untouched." "Does Margaret know?" he asked between his teeth. Sperry and Margaret were the two poles of a battery to Thayor. "Does she know? Of course not! Do you consider Dr. Sperry a fool?" "Do I think him a fool? Yes, and sometimes I think he's worse," and he looked at her meaningly.
Abruptly the fat adventurer's smoldering resentment leaped in flame. "That'll be about all, Mr. Mulready! 'Bout face, you hound, and get into that boat! D'you think I'll temporize with you till Doomsday? Then forget it. You're wrong, dead wrong. Your bluff's called, and" with an evil chuckle "I hold a full house, Mulready, every chamber taken." He lifted meaningly the hand in the coat pocket.
