Vogelstein heard him rise from the sofa with his companion; after which he gave the pair time to pass out of the room before him. They did it with a certain impressive deliberation, people making way for the ruler of fifty millions and looking with a certain curiosity at the striking pink person at his side.
It's only your sea-things," Pandora cried, stooping over the coffer with the key in her hand. "I don't know as I like showing them," Mrs. Day modestly murmured. Vogelstein made his German salutation to the company in general, and to Pandora he offered an audible good-bye, which she returned in a bright friendly voice, but without looking round as she fumbled at the lock of her trunk.
You see the others get worried by the critics. That means exchanging, refunding all sorts of trouble." "But Morrison never?" "Never; he's a true sport. He never squeals." "Doesn't have to because he doesn't know he's hurt." "That's right," concluded Vogelstein, his face corrugating into one ample, contented smile. "Then the big game reduces itself into selling to Morrison."
I found in Dresden old friends with youthful feelings; my gifted half- countryman Dahl, the Norwegian, who knows how upon canvas to make the waterfall rush foaming down, and the birch-tree to grow as in the valleys of Norway, and Vogel von Vogelstein, who did me the honor of painting my portrait, which was included in the royal collection of portraits.
The young man, in his way, was very remarkable, for, as Vogelstein heard some one say once after the laughter had subsided, he was only nineteen. If his sister didn't resemble the dreadful little girl in the tale already mentioned, there was for Vogelstein at least an analogy between young Mr.
Blushing and toying with the roses like a shy girl, good old Vogelstein asked if in his leisure moments he could give English lessons in the young ladies' school where she taught painting, adding that a small but certain salary would be paid him. Gratefully Nat accepted both offers, finding it less humiliating to be helped by women than by friends of his own sex.
For Vogelstein was after all of primitive stamp, to wit the militant publican. So he took toll and plenty, it mattered little where or whence. To Morrison and Vogelstein no better foil could be imagined than Brush. If they recalled the tusked monsters that charged in the van of Asiatic armies, his analogue was the desert horse.
He had a consolation however: it was apparent that for some reason or other illness or absence from town the gentleman to whom she had written had not, as she said, come down. Vogelstein was glad he couldn't have told you why that this sympathetic person had failed her; even though without him Pandora had to engage single-handed with the United States Custom-House.
It's very well for Europe to have a few phrases that will do for any girl. The American girl isn't ANY girl; she's a remarkable specimen in a remarkable species. But you must keep the best this evening for Miss Day." "For Miss Day!" and Vogelstein had a stare of intelligence. "Do you mean for Pandora?" Mrs. Bonnycastle broke on her side into free amusement.
They solved all their problems successfully, including those of knowing none of the people they didn't wish to, and of finding plenty of occupation in a society supposed to be meagrely provided with resources for that body which Vogelstein was to hear invoked, again and again, with the mixture of desire and of deprecation that might have attended the mention of a secret vice, under the name of a leisure-class.
