Jimmie Dale, lazily ensconced now in a lounging chair in one of the club's private library rooms, flicked a minute speck of cigar ash from the sleeve of his dinner jacket, and smiled whimsically across the table at his friend. "Oh, I dare say there's a lot in physiognomy, Carruthers," he drawled. "Never studied the thing, you know that is, from the standpoint of crime.

"It's really gray, and the sparrows have decided upon a shower." She regarded him whimsically. "And you look so well in your raincoat," he added. They took the 'bus up the Avenue.... She pointed out the tremendous vitalities of the Rodin marbles, intimated their visions, and remarked that he should hear Vina Nettleton on this subject.

And then Jimmie Dale smiled a little whimsically. They were both bound for the same place, he and Meighan, of Headquarters Kenleigh's apartment, that was a little way further on there along the Avenue. A short distance behind the other, but on the opposite side of the street, Jimmie Dale followed the detective.

But being men, the way we go is the only way and a mighty bad way it is. I should like to be buried at Sant' Angelo, Lord Count," he continued whimsically.

The gray sky bent threateningly above them, wind-torn into flying scud but never showing a hint of blue. Later there might be rain, sleet, snow or sunshine, as nature might whimsically direct; but for the present she seemed content with only the chill wind that blew the very heart out of a man.

"But it was all done before you had a chance to do anything. It was not your hand, not even your unconscious hand." "Then it was some invisible hand, reaching out from I don't know where." He looked up whimsically at the sky and smiled at the conceit.

"I can teach my servants discretion," he replied whimsically, "but I can't teach 'em to use their eyes.
