Mitchell dropped his eyes demurely. "I've had a number of offers, and in justice to myself " "Offers? You? How much?" "One hundred a month and expenses." Mr. Comer removed his glasses, he polished them carefully, then he readjusted them and leaned forward, looking the young man over from head to foot, as if he had never until this moment seen more than his vague outlines. "Um-m!
"Bill Kyler um-m," said the lady. "And where does he get it?" "Dennis O'Day, the man what owns the brewery and the wholesale house, sells to him. Big Bill drives down in the afternoon and comes home after dark." "Each Saturday, you say?" asked the woman. "Yes'm." During the conversation, Elizabeth had also been emptying her lunch-box.
Sh-sh-sh Sh -sh-h-h -sh-h-h-h-h-h! Um-m mu -um-m-m sh! March 13th. The last day of my stay with Livingstone has come and gone, and the last night we shall be together is present, and I cannot evade the morrow! I feel as though I would rebel against the fate which drives me away from him. The minutes beat fast, and grow into hours.
Leslie Branch was asleep when O'Reilly returned to their room, but he awoke sufficiently to listen to the latter's breathless account of the dinner-party. "I'm rattled," Johnnie confessed. "Why, that girl just bounced right into the middle of everything, and and I can't bounce her out again." "You say she's young, and PRETTY, and RICH?" Leslie was incredulous. "Y-yes! All of that." "Um-m!
Ken hastened to explain that it was no desire of his; that, although he had studied hard and had not missed many lectures, he knew he was unprepared. Then he went on to tell about the baseball situation and why he had been sent up. "Um-m." The professor held a glass paperweight up before Ken and asked a question about it.
"Agnes Smith is the name. Decent by descent, but an actress by advertising. What's YOUR game?" "Um-m My nose is straight; I don't limp; so I'm an actress by force of feature." "Married?" "Hardly." "Want to be?" "Got to be." Both girls laughed unaffectedly. "I like you," said the dancer. "Do you mind if I get out of this cast-iron corset and into a kimono when we get home?" "Have you a spare one?"
Out they'll go, though, or I'll know why. And, to crown all um-m. And I wish the Devil had him! as he will." "Had who, Beary-papa?" "Him. I'll tell you. The street-floor of one of my houses in Hanover Street lets for an oyster-room. They keep a bar there, and sell liquor. Last night they had a grand row, a drunken fight, and one man was stabbed, it's thought fatally." "O father!"
My, but I'm hungry! Seems as if I hadn't had a good square meal for a year." Peter stopped suddenly and began to wrinkle his nose. "Um-m!" said he, "if I didn't know better, I should say that there is a patch of sweet clover close by. Um-m, my, my! Am I really awake, or am I still dreaming? I certainly do smell sweet clover!"
"I take it nobody's been pawing over this since the late, as you might say, unpleasantness?" "Not a soul has touched it. By Colonel Stanistreet's order it was covered as soon as we found it had been tampered with." "Um-m," Mr. Stone acknowledged, bending close to his work. Partially, perhaps, by way of administering an urbane rebuke to Lanyard for his readiness to dispense with his society, Mr.
I have a little home where he can't avoid seeing me sometimes. I believe, if I kept always appearing before him, he would go raving mad, he hates me to that extent." "Um-m! Is that so?" "Yes, indeed. Why, lady, if I were without house or home, and you, out of the kindness of your heart, were to take me into your employment as the very humblest of your servants, I believe he would kill us both."
