While the parson and his wife are entertaining their guest, I propose to regale the reader with a small treatise a propos of that "Charles dear," murmured by Mrs. Dale, a treatise expressly written for the benefit of The Domestic Circle. It is an old jest that there is not a word in the language that conveys so little endearment as the word "dear."
While the parson and his wife are entertaining their guest, I propose to regale the reader with a small treatise /a propos/ of that "Charles dear," murmured by Mrs. Dale, a treatise expressly written for the benefit of The Domestic Circle. It is an old jest that there is not a word in the language that conveys so little endearment as the word "dear."
They naturally looked upon the matter in its most unpromising light, because an Indian was an Indian, and this unknown savage from Fort Charles was in violent contrast to such desirable persons as Lady Agnes Martling. Not that the Armours were zealous for mere money and title, but the thing itself was altogether a propos, as Mrs. Armour had more naively than correctly put it.
"Admirably put, Roland," said my father. "But a propos of what do you puzzle us with these queries on courage?"
Burrish can, doubtless, give you the best letters to Munich; and he will naturally give you some to Comte Preysing, or Comte Sinsheim, and such sort of grave people; but I could wish that you would ask him for some to young fellows of pleasure, or fashionable coquettes, that, you may be 'dans l'honnete debauche de Munich'. A propos of your future motions; I leave you in a great measure the master of them, so shall only suggest my thoughts to you upon that subject.
How we laughed together, as we sped away in our taxicab. "It's as well to live up to one's reputation with such people," she said, that dear, fantastic Luccia. À propos that early Parisian adventure, Rosa Bonheur had been one of Luccia's and Irene's great exemplars, and one might say, in one particular connection, heroes. I refer to the great painter's adoption of masculine costume.
Such men must necessarily give you the desire of pleasing them; and if you can frequent them, their acquaintance will furnish you the means of pleasing everybody else. 'A propos' of pleasing, your pleasing Mrs.
I should say that one troubadour is enough to manage and I should send the other to Chaillot. A propos of gypsies, do you know that there are gypsies of the sea?
Besides it is disagreeable always to have to say nice things to the two ladies: that's not why a fellow comes to the country. A propos, I hear you have a beautiful gypsy girl here." "You know that too, already?" "I hope you are not jealous of her?" "What, the devil! of a gypsy girl?" "Ha, ha! we shall not fight a duel for a gypsy girl, shall we, my boy?" "Nor for any other girl."
I should be safe in there if I were the monster Williams himself. The great thing is to have me under lock and key. For it does lock; it is locked now," said I, trying the door. "À propos, what have you for a cargo? It must be precious." He found not a word to answer. Rat-tat-tat, I went upon the door like a well-drilled footman. "Any one at home?" I said, and stooped to listen.
