"It's proper to have a certain amount of style, Alice, dear. I wish I could induce you to have more of it." "I have enough, thank you. Let's don't talk dress any more, or we'll have a tiff before we get to the moving picture studio, and there are some long and trying scenes ahead of us to-day." "So there are. I wonder if daddy took his key?" "Wait, and I'll look on his dresser."
"It was more than a tiff, Godfrey; it" "Not a bit more! not a bit!" "Yes! yes it was a problem! a problem how to harmonize two fine natures keyed utterly unlike. Leonard saw that. That is why he moved so slowly." "Hmm!" The lover stared away grimly. "I know something about slowness. I suppose it's a virtue sometimes." "I think so," said the girl, caressing a flower.
But if we didn't talk to the Tweedies, I guess there was mighty little that went on there we didn't know of whether it was turtle steak for breakfast, or the tiff they had about her wearing too gauzy a dress at the party Coe gave aboard the Peep o' Day. He did it up in style, with bunting and Chinese lanterns and the king, and afterwards there was fireworks.
Slowly and distinctly as he went along the various things grouped themselves together in his mind, and he began to think aloud. "She knew her mother was out when she met me," he said slowly. "She knew that other fellow was here; but one would have thought Lovers' tiff," he said suddenly and bitterly; "and doing the pleasant to me to make him smart a bit.
Jack was very despondent, and had had some tiff with Eva. He had asked Eva whether she were not going to England, and Eva had said that perhaps she might do so if some Britannulists did not do their duty. Jack had chosen to take this as a bit of genuine impertinence, and had been very sore about it.
"Let bar the land with iron chains" is her next proposal, that neither man nor woman enter it without paying tax. Her husband says scornfully that Danish kings have never had need of such measures, and never will. He is plainly getting bored, and when she keeps it up, and begrudges the husbandman more than "two oxen and a cow," he loses his temper, and presumably there is a matrimonial tiff.
He was a Revenue Commissioner residing in Mudnugger; a rank Conservative; a regular old "John Company" man, with whom I had had more than one tiff in the columns of the Howler, leading to considerable correspondence. "I trust that our collision in the flesh has had no worse results than our tilts in print, Mr. Ghyrkins?" "Not at all. Oh don't mention it.
Crocker, Aunt Jemima, is a clerk in the Post Office, who sits at the same desk with George Roden, and is intimately acquainted both with Lord Hampstead and with Lady Frances Trafford. He used to be George Roden's bosom friend; but there has lately been some little tiff between the young men, which would be so pleasant if we could make it up. You have got to a speaking acquaintance with Mrs.
But after their little tiff they tried to recover their spirits and succeeded in keeping up a sham kind of gayety. Arrived at Silverthorn's lodging, they completed their business; Vibbard handing over a check, and receiving in exchange Silverthorn's copy of the agreement with a receipt in due form. "How long can you stay, Bill?" asked Silverthorn, more cheerfully, when this was over.
"The best sense I can talk to you is what I said last night, as you're i' the wrong to think o' calling in your money, when it's safe enough if you'd let it alone, all because of a bit of a tiff, and I was in hopes you'd ha' altered your mind this morning.
