Some of the treasures are almost beyond price in value, but they are not very well displayed. The galleries are open to the public, free of charge, and the visitors' book is quite interesting, as it contains the signatures of a number of royalties and celebrities. Several of the attendants spoke excellent English and were most courteous in their explanations.
"How fearfully polite German maids are," remarked Tussie. "In what way?" asked Priscilla. "Those curtseys. They're magnificent." "Don't English maids curtsey?" "None that I've ever seen. Perhaps they do to royalties." "Oh?" said Priscilla with a little jump.
There in a stuffy court in London, a grimy oblong box of a room, during the exceptional heat of the May of 1956, the leading counsel of the day argued and shouted over a miserable little matter of more royalties or less and whether the Dass-Tata company might not bar the Holsten-Roberts' methods of utilising the new power.
One of her dissimulated arts for meeting their tension, meanwhile, was to interweave Mrs. Assingham as plausibly as possible with the undulations of their surface, to bring it about that she should join them, of an afternoon, when they drove together or if they went to look at things looking at things being almost as much a feature of their life as if they were bazaar-opening royalties.
What must she think of insincerity when he refuses to copyright his books because he thinks it wrong to take money for teaching, yet permits her to copyright them and draw the royalties for the support of the family? Her opinion of her famous husband lies beneath her manner, covered lightly by a charming and graceful impatience, the impatience of a spoiled child.
We have rival parties, and vie with one another in getting hold of any royalties or such like, that may be knocking about; but we who hate each other most, meet at the Governor's Palace and smile sweetly if French people are looking; if not, we snort like war-horses only in a whisper, for we're invariably polite." Stephen laughed, as he was meant to do.
"Your book 'The American Octopus, is selling well?" inquired the judge, interested. "So well," replied Shirley, "that the publishers wrote me in Paris that the fourth edition was now on the press. That means good royalties. I shall soon be a fashionable author. The publishers will be after me for more books and we'll have all the money we want.
Sotto voce to her: "Remember, Esther, while I'm gone, the royalties from the Discaphone records are yours. I want you to have them for pin-money and maybe a dowry?" She turned from him. "Don't, Leon don't " "I like him! Nice fellow, but too slow! Why, if I were in his shoes, I'd have popped long ago." She smiled with her lashes dewy.
I have therefore asked for an advance of a hundred louis d'or on account of royalties, and as to the rest have ceded the opera without any conditions. To tell you the truth, everything else in connection with my operas has become a matter of perfect indifference to me.
I can put you in the way of getting a claim for eight thousand dollars that you can take eighty thousand out of next August, with no inspector coming round to check your clean-up, and no Government grabbing at your royalties." "Why aren't you taking out that eighty thousand yourself?" asked Mac bluntly. "Got more 'n one man can handle," answered the General. "Reckon we've earned a holiday."
