You must do the host a little, you know. You ought to have taken his hat and coaxed him into stopping, instead of letting him be swamped by screaming women." Tibby sighed, and drew a long strand of hair over his forehead. "Oh, it's no good looking superior. I mean what I say." "Leave Tibby alone!" said Margaret, who could not bear her brother to be scolded.
"The rest is naturally no concern of ours." Margaret nodded. "It's a beautiful book. I wanted to get back to the Earth, don't you see, like Richard does in the end. Or have you ever read Stevenson's PRINCE OTTO?" Helen and Tibby groaned gently. "That's another beautiful book. You get back to the Earth in that. I wanted " He mouthed affectedly.
Tibby, why don't you ever No, I can't remember what I was going to say. That wasn't it, but do tell the maids to hurry tea up. What about this umbrella?" She opened it. "No, it's all gone along the seams. It's an appalling umbrella. It must be mine." But it was not. He took it from her, murmured a few words of thanks, and then fled, with the lilting step of the clerk.
What do you think her 'mon' is called in the village! John o' Mary! But he is not alone in his meekness, for there are Jock o' Meg, Willie o' Janet, Jem o' Tibby, and a dozen others.

When it comes to music I am as safe as houses, and I assure you, Tibby, I am by no means pleased by everything. There was a thing something about a faun in French which Helen went into ecstasies over, but I thought it most tinkling and superficial, and said so, and I held to my opinion too." "Do you agree?" asked Margaret. "Do you think music is so different from pictures?"
Why shouldn't I post it, though?" She sat down again. "My head is rather wretched. I hope that none of your friends are likely to come in." Tibby locked the door. His friends often found it in this condition. Then he asked whether anything had gone wrong at Evie's wedding. "Not there," said Helen, and burst into tears.

To "act for the best" might do Helen good, but would do herself harm, and, at the risk of disaster, she kept her colours flying a little longer. She replied that their aunt was much better, and awaited developments. Tibby approved of her reply. Mellowing rapidly, he was a pleasanter companion than before.
