Glory had sat trembling all over, breathing hard, blushing, and wide-eyed until he had done. Then she leaped up to where he stood beside her, threw her arms about his neck, and kissed him. "And now you ring down quick, my dear," said Betty, and everybody laughed a little.
And Martin got on his feet and stood in amazement, wide-eyed, and suddenly white. "You here!" cried Joan. "I've been waiting and wondering, but I didn't call because I wanted you to come back for yourself and not for me. It's been a long week, Marty, and in every hour of it I've grown. Can't you see the change?"
In bringing Ruth to Noche Buena he had made a great mistake. "Do you want to make some money, you what's your name?" he presently rasped out. Yeager answered with the universal formula of the land. "Si, señor. And my name is Cabenza Pedro Cabenza." The prizefighter glanced warily around, then lowered his voice. "I mean a lot of money twenty dollars, maybe." "Gold?" asked the peon, wide-eyed.
At last she could bear it no longer. "Phronsie," she said, when the round cheeks and hands were as clean as clean could be, "now look at me, dear." Phronsie lifted her blue eyes and fixed them in wide-eyed astonishment on Polly's face. "What makes you do so, Polly?" she asked wonderingly. "Never mind," said Polly, with an awful feeling at her heart, it was so still out in the kitchen and bedroom.
As they listened, wide-eyed, the noise grew softer and softer and gradually died away in the distance. The girls looked at each other wonderingly. Then it was Billie who offered a solution. "Mightn't it be an aeroplane?" "An aeroplane in this part of the country?" Laura was inclined to scoff at the idea, but Mrs. Gilligan and Violet both stood up for Billie.
Wide-eyed she stared at the newcomer. Her face went deathly white, and the heart within her breast turned to ice, for instinctively she knew, by the wild, intense beauty of the woman, that she stood face to face with the Indian girl the Jeanne of Bill Carmody's whispered words!
He brushed past her without a look or another word, so intent was he upon this fresh disaster. "I'm going after the boys, Chip. You better come along and see if you can pick up the Kid's trail where he left the road. It's too bad Florence Grace Hallman ain't a man! I'd know better what to do if she was." "Oh, do you think ?" Miss Rosemary looked at him wide-eyed.
And, indeed, the door on the left of the room flew open a moment later, and a wide-eyed Chinaman appeared with a long pigtail jerking about his head as he halted and looked about in alarm. "Coffee for the boss and the new hand," said Kate, without turning her head, as soon as she heard the door open. "Pronto, Johnny." Johnny snarled an indistinct something and withdrew muttering.
She shook the kitchen door of her friend, and smiled with calm reassurance when it was cautiously set ajar to disclose a wide-eyed and open-mouthed face of terror. "Who is it?" "It's me. What have you got your door locked for?" "I think that Eva Loud is raving crazy. I'm afraid of her." "Lord! you 'ain't no reason to be 'fraid of her. She ain't crazy.
"You must have heard the story of Tuccia, the Vestal," Brinnaria wondered, wide-eyed. "She lived ages ago, before Hannibal invaded Italy, when everything was different. They said she was bad and she said it was a lie and they said she could not prove it was a lie and she said she could. She said if she was all she ought to be the Goddess would show it by answering her prayer.
