Graham continued just where she left off. "Annoys me exceedingly, by eternally tracing in me a resemblance to some down-east creature or other what is her name Sco Sco Scovandyke; yes, that's it Scovandyke. Of course it's not pleasant for me to be told every time I meet your mother " "Mr. Livingstone's mother," again interrupted the lady.
"That is interesting it's so simple and effective!" cried Tom, pretended enthusiasm glowing in his eyes. "Say, but that's practical! A man annoys you, and you send a servant to tell him to stop. Then he stops." "Because my enemy also vanishes, you understand," smiled Senor Luis, indulgently. "But doesn't the governor of Bonista ever hear of the disappearances?" suggested Reade, very casually.

"Oh, if it annoys you like that, madame," said Cleek, "I'll take him round to the stable and tie him up there, so we may have the song undisturbed.
Nothing annoys or embarrasses a Filipino more than the American habit of railing at luck or of berating the unfortunate purveyor of disappointing news, or, in fact, of insisting on accurate information if it can be obtained.

Perhaps, she thought, Ruth remembered it also, and was secretly exulting over the fact of her own beauty. Exceedingly vain herself, she was quick to suspect vanity in others, and this thought only increased her irritation.
