"I it was nothing." Her lashes fell, and dull color flushed through her countenance. "Between friends," the Duke suggested, "there should be no reservations." "But it is such a pitiably inartistic little history!" the Duchess protested. "Eh bien, if you must have it! For I was a girl once, an innocent girl, as given as are most girls to long reveries and bright, callow day-dreams.
Many would say that it was a great match for you, but I would rather see you settled in a cottage with enough money for your daily needs. It is easier for a camel " Elma interrupted quickly. "I don't think you need be afraid, mother. I love beautiful things, but truly and honestly I believe they are good for me! It is a little difficult to explain, but ugly things inartistic things, jar!
"But Mary," interposed Frederica, with an inartistic directness that was in painful contrast to the cadenza, "what has the Major got to say to Doctor Aherne?" The question was ignored; the artist dashed on into a presto movement, in which, as far as any direct theme was discernible, Dr. Mangan, his cupidity, his riches, the riches of Dr. Aherne's parents were the leading motives.

I thought it would not matter." Comment would be inartistic. The curious thing is that the special correspondent was an editor's wife. Secondly, inattention to detail.
