"What difference does it make to you?" For I was curious to know. "And don't you think," she went on unheedingly, "that it was cruel for anybody to hold that poor man responsible for his parents' sin?"

Such elephants should always be approached with caution, and never directly in front, but at the side. An elephant is frequently treacherous, and if the person should stand unheedingly before it, a sudden slap with the trunk might be the consequence.

He shrank from the phrases considered appropriate to the situation, but he wanted to hold her close and give her the depth of his heart in long kiss. Suddenly she sat upright and turned a desperate face on him. "Why on earth are you staring at me like that?

She turned dizzily from contemplating the vast emptiness about her to a close scrutiny of her injured foot. She drew off her thin satin house slipper painfully and dropped it unheedingly into a bunch of yucca that crowded against the rock. Her silk stocking followed. Then she sat in helpless misery, eying her blue-veined foot.

Warped and perverted though her nature might be, she was yet far nobler than those who sat in judgement upon her. Min made some scanty purchases and left the store quickly, brushing unheedingly past the minister as she did so.

Just now she cared not what the future might hold, she must get beyond all prying eyes immediately, and see what that letter contained.
