Of 717 children arrested in one month in New York City, more than half were arrested for playing games. Parenthetically, the fact may be quoted that in this children's chief playground in a period of ten months 67 children were killed and 196 injured.
The characteristic feature of all such seasons of devout vicarious leisure is a more or less rigid tabu on all activity that is of human use. It may be remarked, parenthetically, that secular holidays are of the same origin, by slightly remoter derivation.
I have never told you of the Sunday services we established here from the first week of our arrival. There is no church nearer than those in Christchurch, nor I may mention parenthetically is there a doctor within the same distance.
"Ay, murder, Acton: off! off, I say!" he muttered parenthetically, then wrestled for a minute violently, as with something in the air; and recovering as from a spasm, calmly added, "Ay, murder for the money." "I I!" gasped Roger; "I did no murder, Muster Jennings!" A new light seemed to break upon the bailiff, and he answered with a tone of fixed determination,
And it should be added parenthetically that W.M.P., in spite of his New England temperament, had a burning ambition to send somebody to the electric chair.

It would be the death-knell of speculation." "You don't know what a goose you are engaged to, Gwen," said Irene parenthetically. "Yes, I do. But he meant something this time. He does, you know, now and again, in spite of appearances to the contrary. What did you mean, please?" "I can only conjecture," said Adrian incorrigibly. Then, more in earnest: "I think it was something like this.
Whenever he asserts a rule in clear and unmistakable language, it is either brought in almost parenthetically amidst a mass of rhetoric, or as, for example, in the dictum of music being a means to the dramatic end he treats it with scorn, as something too obvious to be stated. In either case its chances of gaining the reader's attention are seriously diminished by such wrong method.
One day, he let slip the remark that he was sick to death of mounting on horseback like those "harlots" in the suite of Madame de Bourgogne. Those "harlots," I will observe parenthetically, were all the young ladies of the Court, and the daughters of Madame la Duchesse!
