Against his will now and then a muscle contracted nervously; and of a sudden he thrust the telltale member deep into his trousers pocket. "But the future, Bess," he challenged, "your future. You can't go on this way indefinitely. What are you going to do?" "I don't know." "Haven't you ever thought of it?" "It seems to me I've thought of nothing else for an age." "And you've decided nothing?"
After a time, however, the telltale needle informed him that they were proceeding almost due east, and glances at the surroundings showed that on their right was a densely matted mass of undergrowth. Not long afterward another interwoven brush wall blocked the way, and this time the leader veered to the west. Not until an opening appeared did he resume his southward course.
He paused at the little puddle of blood where Carlsen's head had struck the table, turned, and disappeared toward his galley, promptly emerging with a wet cloth. The girl put her hands over her eyes as Tamada methodically mopped up the telltale stains. "The brute!" she said. Then took away her hands and extended them toward Rainey. "What will he do with my father?" she said.
I shall be jealous of the old gentleman, if he is so devoted. Jean, tell me one thing before we part; I am free as air, now, and have a right to speak. Do you love me? Am I the happy man who has won your heart? I dare to think so, to believe that this telltale face of yours has betrayed you, and to hope that I have gained what poor Ned and wild Sydney have lost."
I have heard people complain of French tragedies because they were so very French. This, though it may not be to some particular tastes, and may from one point of view be a defect, is from another and far higher a distinguished merit. It is their flavor, as direct a telltale of the soil whence they drew it as that of French wines is. Suppose we should tax the Elgin marbles with being too Greek?
Kukor says they'll make it taste fine! I'll give Mister Barber a bowl t' eat it out of. My! how he'll smack!" At this point, the wide, old boards of the floor gave a telltale snap. It was behind him, and so loud that it shattered his vision of Big Tom and the pudding bowl. Some one was in the room! Father Pat? Mrs. Kukor? One-Eye? He turned a smiling face.
"Cooee Dent!" "Yes, dear." The girl's tone was nonchalant, even while the telltale color came into her cheeks. "What are you doing here?" "Visiting you, of course." "Visiting me! But, Cooee, I really don't know where I can put you." With perfect composure, Ethel passed her hand over the surface of the cot. "Oh, I think this nutmeg-grater will carry two.
Then a written receipt for one hundred and twenty-five tons of oil was signed by the leaders, tied to a piece of iron, and tossed aboard the tanker, and the two craft separated, the pirate heading south, as Denman could see by the telltale. Denman, his wounded scalp easier, lay down in his berth and smoked while he thought out his plans.
Its bottom was covered with rock and shale. The wounds Thor had received in the fight, unlike bullet wounds, had stopped bleeding after the first few minutes, and he left no telltale red spots behind. The ravine took them to the first chaotic upheaval of rock halfway up the mountain, and here they were still more lost to view from below.
But this morning, with every bone and muscle in him aching from his long night of tedious exertion, the chuckle grew into a laugh as he looked upon the telltale signs in the sand. He stretched himself and his tired bones cracked. Breault did not think aloud. But he was saying to himself.
