Apparently, Miss Bluebell was not in the suavest of humours, for she flung her hat on to one crazy chair, and herself on another, with a vehemence that caused a sensible concussion. "My dear, how brusque you are," said Mrs. Leigh, plaintively. "So provoking," muttered Bluebell. "What's gone wrong with the child now?" said Miss Opie, the elder proprietress of the domicile.

And something angered Tamara in the way the Prince assisted in all this, out-commonplacing her friend in commonplaces with the suavest politeness, while his grave face betrayed him not even by a twinkle in the eye.

The French had exerted all their suavest arts of ingratiation with the Cherokees, and as the Indians were now on the point of breaking out into open enmity against the English, the idea of a French trader in furs, which Odalie had suggested, was so acceptable to the Cherokee scheme of things, that for the time all doubt and suspicion vanished from the savage's mind.

Whether he was the sort who would be communicative or not, Bryce could not tell from outward signs, but he was going to try, and he presently found his card-case, took out a card, and strolling down the garden to the shady spot in which Glassdale sat, assumed his politest and suavest manner and presented himself. "Allow me, sir," he said, carefully abstaining from any mention of names.

Wilkins in his suavest professional manner, "to make a suggestion" they both looked at him, and remembering him as they first saw him felt indulgent "I would advise you not to spoil a delightful holiday with worries over housekeeping."

Then I heard Captain Carey speaking in his suavest tones. "Are you quite well again, Miss Ollivier?" he asked. "Yes, quite well, I think," she said, in a very subdued voice.

Parminter, whose accents became more mellifluous than ever as he addressed her; Mr. Parminter, indeed, confronting Zillah might have been taken for a kindly benevolent gentleman whose sole object was to administer condolence and comfort. Few people in court, however, failed to see the meaning of the questions which he began to put in the suavest and softest of tones.

"No." "What a changeable friend you are! When we were engaged you were always talking about him." "Would you finish your tea, and then we will buy the linoleum for the cubicles."
