Of course as striking-looking a girl as Betty could not enter into the life of a little town even as humbly as through the Carson home, without causing some comment and speculation. People began to notice her. The church ladies looked after her and remarked on her hair, her complexion, and her graceful carriage, and some shook their heads and said they should think Mrs.
Those I've been told about are why, just tip-toppers! and out of his black eyes flashed a quick dart to Justin. He was a striking-looking boy, with the unmistakable signs of gipsyhood about him, sunburnt and freckled, as if his whole life had been spent out of doors, which indeed it mostly had.
She was, in spite of her tininess, a very striking-looking personage; she was dressed all in black, and had snow-white hair, a dead-white face, and snapping, vivid, coal-black eyes. She looked as amazed as the other two, but she didn't look cross. I knew something must be wrong fearfully wrong but I didn't know what.
She looked clean and slight and attractive, and conspicuously well-bred. Her abundant hair showed to advantage under her blue hat, while her teeth and her eyes seemed to Freddy remarkably beautiful. A V.A.D. uniform is not becoming, but if a girl is striking-looking, it accentuates her good points; frumps and mediocrities it extinguishes altogether. "Come and have some tea," Freddy said.
All the same I call him a real striking-looking man." "Oh, don't talk so loud," implored Juliet. "He'll hear you. He's quite close." "Not he," said Miss Tarver. "He's back of the butt still.
"What ridiculous nonsense you are talking!" cried Olive Repton. "The most striking-looking girl I ever saw!" said Julia Bertram. "Why, Fan, what is your reason for this?" "Call it jealousy if you like," said Fanny; "call it any name under the sun, only don't worry me about it." As she spoke she rose deliberately and left the room, her companions looking after her in amazement.
The man is a striking-looking fellow, very well equipped to steal the heart of a country girl, so that this theory seemed to have something to support it. That opening of the door which I had heard after I had returned to my room might mean that he had gone out to keep some clandestine appointment.
"It never rains but it pours, dear!" was her greeting: he had been twice sent for to the Flat, to attend a woman in labour. And with barely time to wash the worst of the ride's dust off him, he had to pick up his bag and hurry away. "A very striking-looking man! With perfect manners and beautiful hands."
Altogether a striking-looking woman, but with an absence of animation about her face, which had a calm, serene expression, effectually hiding any thoughts that might be passing in her mind, and which resembled nothing so much in its inscrutable look as the motionless calm which the old Egyptians gave to their sphinxes.
Malcolm seized his opportunity and looked well at Miss Jacobi, but she did not appear to notice him. She was certainly a most striking-looking woman. Indeed, Malcolm's trained eye was obliged to confess that she was really beautiful.
