After he had eaten a pickle or two and begun to look cheerful, she asked him, tactfully, what he had had so long on his mind. "I'll tell you, Sara," said the Brown Teddy-Bear candidly and mournfully. "I'm so ephemeral." Sara opened her eyes, and looked at him carefully. What new affliction was this? "Do you mean you're sick?" she asked, after a while.
That bitter maxim of Lady Dee's is the literal truth of it 'When in doubt, talk about HIM! If you will tactfully and shrewdly keep a man talking about himself, his tastes, his ideas, his work and the importance of it, there is never the least possibility of your boring him.
He sat by the bed and told the old man tactfully that his brother had come to see him and had given him some money. This brother had plenty of money, so Edstrom could be taken to the hospital; or, if he preferred, Mary could stay near here and take care of him.
"It's a trophy," declared the foreman, "and so long as it ain't where it belongs, the Flying Heart is in disgrace." "Even the 'Leven X treats us scornful!" cried the smallest of the trio angrily. "We're a joke to the whole State." "I know just how these gentlemen must feel," declared Miss Blake, tactfully, at which Stover bowed with grateful awkwardness.
"That is owing, doubtless, to the fact that your mind is absorbed in important things," said Graham, not very tactfully.

"No; please don't go, Mr. Coogan it's too hard for you to get through the train. Sam will get your things as soon as he comes back. Do stay right where you are until we get to Needley." "No; don't think of going, Mr. Coogan," said Thornton savagely.

This seemed to me a further symptom of nerve storm. I encouraged her to speak, as tactfully as I could. "Has Miss Battersby," I asked, "rebelled against her destiny?" Lalage's face suddenly puckered up in a very curious way. I should have supposed that she was on the verge of tears if there existed any record of her ever having shed tears.
After dinner one evening I tactfully broached the subject of the British blockade and laid before the President the use our enemies were making of his patient action toward England. My frank criticism deeply aroused him. Replying to me he pitilessly attacked those who were criticizing him for "letting up on Great Britain."
