The old woman appeared on the porch and she, too, hailed the boy with a bantering tone and a quizzical smile. "One o' them fotched-on women whoop ye fer missin' yo' a-b-abs?" she asked. Jason scowled. "Whar's Mavis?" The old woman laughed teasingly. "Why, hain't ye heerd the news? How long d'ye reckon a purty gal like Mavis was a-goin' to wait fer you?
"This for the strange woman," he said, teasingly, "and plain black or grey silk for me, though I am fain to believe that you love me best. Why is it?" "Because," she responded, playfully, "you know me and love me, even without fuss and frills. For those who do not know us, we must put our best foot forward, in order to make sure of the attention our real merit deserves."
Gail's introduction to the circle was a funny one: Captain Stewart had been curious to see whether "Howland number four would uphold the showing of the family," as he teasingly told Polly, and Polly who was immensely proud of her pretty sister had brindled and protested that: "Gail was the very best looking one of the family." "Then she must be going some," he insisted.
Mother and I always like the same people and things. She has the best taste in the world." Helen laughed teasingly. "You like to impress people with the fact that you are fond of your mother; but have you ever noticed, Cousin Robert, that there is always one compliment for her, and two for you? "Robert Vail and his mother like the same things. That is the first premise.
"I'll bet dancing steps is wicked, for you never was so mean before in your life, so! And you didn't dance near so pretty as Winnie, and you needn't think you ever will, for you never will!" "Oh! I won't, won't I?" said Lu, teasingly. "No, you won't. I won't be wicked and say you are nice, for you're horrid." "You're wicked this minute, Kathie Dysart, for you're mad."
Toyatte's grand countenance glowed like a sun-filled glacier, as he joyfully and teasingly remarked that "the big Sum Dum ice-mountain had hidden his face from me and refused to let me pay him a visit." All the crew worked hard boring a way down the west side of the fiord, and early in the afternoon we reached comparatively open water near the mouth of the bay.
"No, you can't," said Harry, smilingly and a little teasingly. Catching at her ankle and flinging her curls, she made an unstaggering and easy ascent of not four, but eight. "There!" she cried, slapping Harry boldly and resoundingly on the cheek. "Don't you ever dare say I cannot do what I know I can do."
"Why didn't you call me when you got up?" she said sulkily. "It's not good to sit working so long without having had something to eat." Pelle laughed and kissed her good-morning. "Fine ladies don't get up until long after their husbands," he said teasingly. But Ellen would not be put off with a jest. A proper wife would be up before her husband and have something ready for him.
Rhoda did not answer, but poured another handful of seed on the metate. "You'll begin to like the life," he went on, "by the time you are educated enough to leave us." He turned teasingly to Cesca. "You think the white squaw can cross the desert soon by herself?" Cesca spat disdainfully. "No! White squaw no good! All time sit, sit, no work! Kut-le heap fool!"
He smiled at her teasingly. "I'm back to the 'sauerkraut patch' again. Glory, I wish Dad would sell out and move to some decent place." "Um," she grunted, refraining from speech. "Yes. I loathe this Dutch, poky old place. The only reason I'm glad to ever see it again is because you live here. That's the only excuse I have to be glad to see Lancaster County.
