Stanmore, who was good-hearted if bad-tempered, trusted "dear Maud would think no more of what she had said in a moment of irritation, but that they would be better friends than ever after their little tiff." None the less, though, for this decisive victory did the young lady cherish her determination to settle in life without delay.
What does it all mean anyhow? Come, confess. You must have had a tiff or something with Breck." "I don't have tiffs, Edith," I said, annoyed. "Well, you needn't get mad about it. There must be some reason for our being slighted in this fashion. I'm sure I've done nothing. It's not my fault. I wouldn't care if it was small, but everybody who isn't absolutely beyond the pale is invited."
Harold took it, and tried to put it on one of his fingers. It would fit on none but the very top of his little finger. We laughed heartily at the disparity in the size of our hands. "I'll agree to your bargain," he said. "But you'll be really engaged to me all the same.` "Yes; under those conditions. Then it will not matter if we have a tiff. We can part, and no one will be the wiser."
I think I shall have to cut my leave by a week and go down there. If there's anything to be told, the men will tell me. It will never do for the gang to think they can dacoit my belongings." That was in the forenoon, and Strickland asked me to tiff in to leave me some instructions about his big dog, with authority to rebuke those who did not attend to her.
How would she explain to herself his sudden, precipitate journey to London alone? Might she not quite naturally put an unpleasant construction upon it? It was bad enough to have to remember that they had parted in something like a tiff; he found it much worse to be fancying the suspicions with which she would be turning over his mysterious absence in her mind.
"I regret to say, sir, that Miss Taylor and I 'ave had a what you might describe, sir, as a bit of a tiff. She hasn't permitted me to speak to her since yesterday morning. It will be quite all right, however, to 'ave Watson 'andle the matter. Thank you, sir."
He never did ill to any one while he lived, and there's no need to hide his face when he is dead. And we had a bit stramash about it, for I can't abide to hide up the face that is honest and well loved, and Lizzie said I was right, and so Elspeth went off in a tiff." "I think there must be 'tiffs' floating about in the air to-night.
Thus encouraged, Fanny proceeded to more modern rules. She let Miss Maitland know it was always understood at her school that on these occasions of tiff, reconciliation, and present, the girl who received the present was to side in everything with the girl who gave it, for that one day. "That is the real reason I put on my tight boots to earn my brooch. Isn't it a duck?" "Are they tight, then?"
A few words of instruction were enough for Azalea's dramatic instinct to grasp his meaning, and they had a lively tiff followed by a sentimental "making-up" that was good enough for a vaudeville performance, and which Azalea knew would greatly amuse Patty and Bill when they should hear the record. "Oh, what fun!" Azalea cried, "I never heard of such a thing. I want to make a lot of records.
"What's that?" ejaculated Cap'n Ira. "He wouldn't agree to come and live here, I reckon. What would become of his Aunt 'Cretia? I don't guess there's any fear of her getting married, is there?" "No, no! Don't be funnin'! But Ida May said just that in so many words." "She's mad with him, do you cal'late? They had a tiff!" cried her husband.
