No one was in the office but Jud Carpenter, and to her surprise he treated her with the utmost courtesy.

"Be seated, Madam," he said with a profound bow.
And as the strange crimson twilight folded down across the streets, laden with spicy smells and little, fragrant gusts of wind, he almost savored the sense of being a conspirator, of playing for high stakes in a network of intrigue between the stars.

Teunis Van Dam now deigned to assist at one of the weekly house-openings, the occasion savored of an aroma which the united patronage of Mrs. Tommy Kidder and the ladies of the lieutenant-governor, the secretary of state, the controller, the treasurer, and the entire bench of the Court of Appeals could not exhale.
Days back, a headstrong young secretary of mine of considerable nerve and independence and er intermittent disrespect for his chief -having come to grief through a knife of Themar's intended for another refused, with a habit of infernal politeness he has which I find most maddening, refused, mademoiselle, to execute a certain little commission of mine because he quixotically fancied it savored of spying!"
