She's a very ladylike girl. much more ladylike and nice, and nicer-looking too, than Agnes."

Mother had it for lunch the day that scraggy-looking woman and her daughter were here from London. Mother said she was Lady somebody, but our cook is much nicer-looking on Sundays. She didn't eat her salad."
"'Raphael is much nicer-looking than the student in number seven, said Pauline; 'his fair hair is such a pretty color.
