We have never had a harsh word; she's the dearest girl, the best wife in the world to me, but" he hesitated, "you know there are times when I think she confounds me with somebody else, and is strange! Sometimes when we are in company she stands alone and stares at everybody, without saying a word, as if she didn't understand them.
I open the door, and push the big fair artilleryman into the room where his brother has just died. I turn back the sheet and uncover the face of the corpse. The flesh is still warm. The big fellow looks like a peasant. He holds his helmet in both hands, and stares at his brother's face with eyes full of horror and amazement. Then suddenly, he begins to cry out: "Poor Andre! Poor Andre!"
Often some of the officers used to play rounders in the small yard which we had for exercise. But the rest walked moodily up and down, or lounged over the railings and returned the stares of the occasional passers-by. Later would come the 'Volksstem' permitted by special indulgence with its budget of lies. Sometimes we get a little fillip of excitement.
He rises from his seat, and abstractedly stares at the Star, then at the audience. The audience gives out a spontaneous burst of applause, which the Teutonic Hamlet is inclined to regard as an indignity offered to superior talent.

The loveliest garden I know is spoilt to my thinking by the impossibility of getting out of sight of the house, which stares down at you, Argus-eyed and unblinking, into whatever corner you may shuffle.
It is many and many a year since the hapless half-breed scooped out the stone to catch the priceless drops, but to this day the tourist stares longest at that pathetic stone and that slow-dropping water when he comes to see the wonders of McDougal's cave. Injun Joe's cup stands first in the list of the cavern's marvels; even "Aladdin's Palace" cannot rival it.
And my estimate of him makes us even. But perhaps you don't know with what utter contempt I regard such a worthless " "I got a general idea," says I. "And maybe that's because you don't know him very well." For a second the old boy stares at me like he was goin' to blow a gasket. But he don't.
We must, however, never forget that these signs, whatever they may be, are not only unintentional on the part of her family, but also not consciously perceived by Beulah.
