34380 | What sort of mountains do we desire to have? |
34380 | Who could wish for a diviner couch? |
34380 | Who has not felt the pathos of a faded blossom kept as a memorial of the past? |
34380 | Why must so quaintly charming a flower be so barbarously named that one''s jaw is well- nigh cracked in articulating it? |

45930 | At first sight it seems as if this was a mistake of Nature; why should so much of the surface be occupied by this useless vegetable? |
45930 | But how does the root learn that the water is there and turn away from its original track to find it? |
45930 | But, one might ask, how is the pollen of its flowers carried? |
45930 | Could anything be more beautiful than these little graceful red, yellow, or brown sprays? |
45930 | Have they some extraordinary sense of the direction of the points of the compass? |
45930 | How did flowers manage to produce all these attractions? |
45930 | How did the stem get down to such a depth below the surface? |
45930 | How do animals recognize these particular plants as being dangerous whilst all their allies are harmless? |
45930 | How has this been brought about? |
45930 | How is it that the plant knows the time to produce its spines, and the time to refrain from doing so? |
45930 | How is it that their leaves are always at the level of the ground? |
45930 | How then was the pollen of the first flowers carried? |
45930 | How, then, does it manage to live? |
45930 | In the_ Odyssey_, the hero goes to Ephyra( Epirus?) |
45930 | Now why is this? |
45930 | Those seaweeds were called by Horace_ Algæ inutiles_, or useless seaweeds; but are they useless? |
45930 | Were these hillsides of Ararat or thereabouts, the first place where man sowed and reaped a harvest? |
45930 | What are they doing, and are they of any use? |
45930 | What happens next? |

45930 | What plant can stand such conditions? |
45930 | What produces these changes? |

45930 | What was the first tree like? |
45930 | What wild plants, then, would have been available for his experiments? |
45930 | What, then, is the climate of scrub? |
45930 | When one comes to ask, Why do those few plants out of all the vast multitude of the vegetable world possess such extraordinary virtues? |
45930 | When the eyes of man first beheld Britain, what sort of country was this of ours? |
45930 | When was the surface of the earth first covered with flowers? |
45930 | Where are the eggs of these insects to be stored up so that they can last through the winter without injury? |
45930 | Where are the tidy roadsides and beautifully embanked rivers that we see to- day? |
45930 | Where are the trim hedges? |

45930 | Why are those lichens there? |
45930 | Why do roots generally grow downwards? |
45930 | Why does it do so? |
45930 | Why is it that, as Disraeli has pointed out, civilization, culture, science, and religion had their origins in the desert? |
45930 | Why should these delicate and exquisite shades be wasted on such minute and scarcely distinguishable forms? |
45930 | Why, for instance, should old women always carry a sprig of Southernwood to the kirk in their Bibles? |
45930 | Why, however, should a twig of Rowan(_ Pyrus Aucuparia_) be so often placed above the door of a Highland cottage? |
45930 | Why? |
45930 | Would it be possible to again cover our peat- mosses and moorlands with forests of Conifers, Pines, Larches, and Spruces? |
7234 | And what is it that makes us familiar with them? |
7234 | Are all mutations to be considered as limited to such periods? |
7234 | Are the older ones now in a better condition than at the outset? |
7234 | Are these types to be considered as elementary species, or only as individual differences? |
7234 | Are they to be expected to be equal to the unique quality of the parent, or perhaps to be the same as the average of the whole unselected race? |
7234 | Are we to conclude therefore that the main strain has died out? |
7234 | But what is a prototype? |
7234 | But why should they have done so, especially in cases of recent changes? |
7234 | Could it be affected to such a degree as to gradually lose the inactive quality, and cease to be a double race? |
7234 | Could not the plants of the second locality have arisen from seeds transported from the first? |
7234 | Could the mutation be repeated? |
7234 | ELEMENTARY SPECIES LECTURE II ELEMENTARY SPECIES IN NATURE What are species? |
7234 | Had it been present, though dormant in the original sample of seed? |
7234 | Had it commenced to mutate after its introduction into Europe, some time ago, or was it already previously in this state? |
7234 | Had the germ of the mutation lain hidden through all this time? |
7234 | Have they done so? |
7234 | Have they really been gradually improved during the centuries of their existence? |
7234 | How long had it been so? |
7234 | How many different conceptions are conveyed by the terms constancy and variability? |
7234 | How may this character have originated? |
7234 | How[ 568] great is the chance for a single individual to be destroyed in the struggle for life? |
7234 | If a distinct mutation from a given species is once possible, why should it not occur twice or thrice? |
7234 | If we are right in this general conception, we may ask further, what is to be the exact place of our group of new evening- primroses in this theory? |
7234 | In other words, would it have been possible to attain an average of 20 rows in a single experiment? |
7234 | Is it the minute inspection of the features of the process in the case of the evening- primroses? |
7234 | Is it the systematic study of species and varieties, and the biologic inquiry into their real hereditary units? |
7234 | Is the mutability of our evening- primroses temporary, or is it a permanent condition? |
7234 | Is the number of such germs to be supposed to be limited or unlimited? |
7234 | It has frequently succeeded for practical purposes, why should it not succeed as well for purely scientific investigation? |
7234 | Now who can assure us that the single root of a given beet is an average representative of the partial variability? |
7234 | Or are we to base our hopes and our methods on broader conceptions of nature''s laws? |
7234 | Or can the same mutation have been repeated at different times and in distant localities? |
7234 | Or had an entirely new creation taken place during my continuous endeavors? |
7234 | Or is it perhaps concealed among the throng, being distinguished by no peculiar character? |
7234 | Or is the theory of descent to be our starting- point? |
7234 | Perhaps as their more or less immediate result? |
7234 | The first point, is the question, which seeds become double- flowered and which single- flowered plants? |
7234 | Was it to be ascribed to some latent cause which might be operative more than once? |
7234 | Was the observed mutation to be explained by a common cause with the other cases recorded by field- observations? |
7234 | Was there some hidden tendency to mutation, which, ordinarily weak, was strengthened in my cultures by some unknown influence? |
7234 | What are species and what are varieties? |
7234 | What are the links which bind them together? |
7234 | What has to be ascertained on such occasions to give them scientific value? |
7234 | What is to guide us in the choice of the material? |
7234 | What is to guide us in this new line of work? |
7234 | When and how did it originate? |
7234 | Why then are they not met with more often? |
7234 | Will all of them do so, or only part of them, and how large a part? |
7234 | Will they keep true to the reverted character, or return to the characters of the plant which bears the retrograde branch? |
7234 | Would it be possible to obtain any imaginable deviation from the original type, and to reach independency from further selection? |
7234 | Would the race become changed thereby? |

20421 | The next point is, what shape are the petals of? |
20421 | The noble stability between death and life, of a piece of perfect wood? |
20421 | The secret and subtle descent-- the violent and exulting resilience of the tree''s blood,--what guides it?--what compels? |
20421 | Then practically, as you examine plants in detail, ask first respecting them: What kind of root have they? |
20421 | What difference is there between the making of the corky excrescence of other{ 173} trees, and of this almost transparent fine white linen? |
20421 | What is all that made of? |
20421 | What is the substance?--and how is it woven into leaves.--twisted into wood? |
20421 | What makes a tree''old''? |
20421 | What shall we call it? |
20421 | What soil does it like, and what properties does it acquire from it? |
20421 | What sort of latent life has it, which it only finally parts with when it rots? |
20421 | What weight of that transparent tissue, half crystal and half comb of honey, lies strewn every year dead under the snow? |
20421 | When Ezekiel is describing to Pharaoh the greatness of the Assyrians, do you remember what image he gives of them? |
20421 | When is ivy in the right place?--when wallflower? |
20421 | When is mistletoe, for instance, in the right place, young ladies, think you? |
20421 | When you go out, delighted, into the dew of the morning, have you ever considered why it is so rich upon the grass;--why it is_ not_ upon the trees? |
20421 | Where has it all come from? |
20421 | Whereupon rises before me, ghostly and untenable, the general question,''What is a weed?'' |
20421 | Who ever saw a wood anemone or a heath blossom in the wrong place? |
20421 | Who ever saw nettle or hemlock in a right one? |
20421 | Who said it was? |
20421 | Why ca n''t the tree go on, and on,--hollowing itself into a Fairy-- no-- a Dryad, Ring,--till it becomes a perfect Stonehenge of a tree? |
20421 | Yes, but how of the pine trees on yonder rock?--Is there any sap in the rock, or water either? |
20421 | You think it, perhaps, a matter of course that a plant is not to be a crawling thing? |
20421 | and how is it related to the rich green bosses that grow in deep velvet? |
20421 | and what stem?" |
20421 | and, how does it stand in sand, where it is wanted to stand, mostly? |
20421 | and, if so, does it die of drought, accidentally, or, in a sere old age, naturally? |
20421 | and, if so, how is it that one never thinks of the stalk, as one does with currants? |
20421 | and, impatient for answer, the particular question, What is a poppy? |
20421 | the oldest hemp? |
20421 | the oldest{ 165} linen? |
20421 | what flower? |
20421 | what leaf? |

10726 | In what direction do the twigs grow? |
10726 | In which buds are the flower- clusters? |
10726 | They must first decide the question,_ What are the parts of a leaf_? |
10726 | Was this to be seen in the seed? |

11723 | ''How old art thou?" |
11723 | A very good general idea,continued Miss Harson,"but perhaps Clara can tell us something more particular about the elms?" |
11723 | And are n''t its chestnuts just splendid? |
11723 | And can people really go and see the very same Mount of Olives now? |
11723 | And could n''t the poor little mouse get out again? |
11723 | And did you think they were hung all over the Lombardy poplars? |
11723 | And do they stay in the woods there all the time? |
11723 | And do you notice how fragrant they are? 11723 And is it for me you intend the cherries, my dear child?" |
11723 | And now Malcolm? |
11723 | And they float it down the rivers on rafts, do n''t they? |
11723 | And was n''t it true, Miss Harson? |
11723 | And what is the particular name for these tree- blossoms? |
11723 | And what is vulcanite? |
11723 | And where does the olive- oil come from? |
11723 | And why are they called_ deciduous?_asked Malcolm. |
11723 | And why could n''t_ you_ say it before Clara put it into your head by saying''Overshoes? |
11723 | And why is it boiled? |
11723 | Are apples mentioned anywhere in the Bible? |
11723 | Are n''t they good to eat? |
11723 | Are snakes ever pretty? |
11723 | Are the leaves like those of our cedar trees? |
11723 | Are the stems all made of India- rubber? |
11723 | Are the stems of the maple trees made of maple- sugar? |
11723 | Are the trees just in one particular place, then? |
11723 | Are there any more kinds of palm trees? |
11723 | Are there any more kinds of pine trees? |
11723 | Are there any more of the walnut family? |
11723 | Are there any of them here? |
11723 | Are there ever many peach trees growing in one place,asked Clara,"like the apple trees in Mr. Grove''s orchard?" |
11723 | Are there gypsies here, Miss Harson? |
11723 | Are there real silkworms on''em? 11723 Are they the same as oak- apples?" |
11723 | Are willow baskets made of willow trees? |
11723 | Are you going to tell us a story, Miss Harson? |
11723 | Are you looking up into the sky for them? 11723 But can figs be naughty, Miss Harson?" |
11723 | But do n''t bees make honey from the lime trees that grow in this country, too, Miss Harson? |
11723 | But do n''t walnuts come from California? 11723 But how can people live in the hut,"asked Malcolm,"if the charcoal is burned in it? |
11723 | But how do people manage to climb such a tree as that,asked Malcolm,"to get the dates? |
11723 | But how do they make the baskets? |
11723 | But is n''t it a shame,said Clara,"to spoil the maple- sugar by making the trees into chairs and things?" |
11723 | But is n''t it strange, Miss Harson, that the Indians and the Britons did n''t get drowned going out in such little light boats? |
11723 | But that is n''t true, is it? |
11723 | But that is n''t_ preserves_, is it? |
11723 | But what did they do it for? |
11723 | But what do they want to find it for,asked Malcolm,"when it kills people?" |
11723 | But why is it called honey- locust? |
11723 | But why is n''t it dark and ugly, like the waterproofs? |
11723 | But why were n''t they saved,asked Clara,"when people thought so much of them?" |
11723 | Can you tell us something more that is done with it, Miss Harson? |
11723 | Could n''t we have a tent, Miss Harson,asked Clara,"and try it?" |
11723 | Did it come from England? |
11723 | Did n''t people use to worship oak trees,asked Malcolm--"people who lived ever so long ago?" |
11723 | Did n''t we have fine times picking''em up? |
11723 | Did people always know about India- rubber? |
11723 | Did they eat''em? |
11723 | Did you_ really_? |
11723 | Do almond trees and peach trees look alike? |
11723 | Do fig trees grow wild? |
11723 | Do n''t they grow in this country? |
11723 | Do n''t we all look, almost the first thing, at the tree by the dining- room window? |
11723 | Do n''t you remember, Miss Harson, that sometimes Edith and I can have only one pear divided between us at dessert because they are so large? |
11723 | Do n''t you remember, Miss Harson,said Edith,"the little tree that I thought was on fire and how frightened I was?" |
11723 | Do n''t you, Miss Harson? |
11723 | Do oak trees ever have apples on''em? |
11723 | Do people ever eat the horse- chestnut? |
11723 | Do pigs ever eat the nuts, Miss Harson? |
11723 | Do prunes really grow on trees, Miss Harson? |
11723 | Do the bees make honey in the trunk? |
11723 | Do the corks that come in bottles grow on it? |
11723 | Do the flowers grow like real necklaces? |
11723 | Do they eat''em instead of bread? |
11723 | Do they have thorns on''em? |
11723 | Do they make holes in the tree for it, as they do for maple- sap? |
11723 | Do they mash''em, like making apples into cider? |
11723 | Do they, Miss Harson? |
11723 | Do willow trees grow everywhere? |
11723 | Do you think we''d like them as well as ours, Miss Harson? |
11723 | Does it grow up from the ground or down from the air? |
11723 | Does n''t the beech tree have nuts? |
11723 | Does that mean Indians, Miss Harson? |
11723 | Does that mean that people can sit inside the tree? |
11723 | Does the Norway spruce come from Norway? |
11723 | Does the apple tree move its head, Miss Harson? |
11723 | Does the sugar come right out of the tree when people tap on it with a hammer? |
11723 | Have n''t we''most come to the end of the trees? |
11723 | Have we any maple- sugar trees? |
11723 | Have we any trees that look like vases, Miss Harson? |
11723 | Have you ever been to a sugar- camp, Miss Harson? |
11723 | Have you so soon forgotten about the real insect- crickets, dear? |
11723 | How about ice- cream? |
11723 | How can people tell when there is any camphor inside the tree? |
11723 | How can that be possible? |
11723 | How can you remember everything so, Miss Harson? |
11723 | How could we refuse a few cherries,said Caroline,"to the man that sheds his blood in our defence? |
11723 | How do they make the cloth? |
11723 | How do you like these pretty quince trees? |
11723 | How high do you think these trees are, Miss Harson? |
11723 | How high does it grow, Miss Harson? |
11723 | How long will it be before they are ripe? |
11723 | How many of them do you wear over your shoulders at once? |
11723 | How_ could_ you? 11723 I hope you do n''t mind our trespassing on your grounds?" |
11723 | I should like to have some of all the trees,replied Clara,"because then we could study about them better.--Wouldn''t you, Miss Harson?" |
11723 | I should like to know,exclaimed Clara, after some thought,"why a tree is called_ locust_, when a locust is such a disagreeable insect?" |
11723 | I thought it was wicked,said she,"to cut off flowers from fruit trees? |
11723 | I thought they grew all over that country? |
11723 | I wonder how the tree got that name? |
11723 | I wonder if all the trees will be so interesting? |
11723 | I wonder what that species has to say for itself? |
11723 | I wonder,said Malcolm,"if the bark is like birch- bark?" |
11723 | I wonder,said Malcolm,"if there is anything else that can be done with the willow?" |
11723 | Is anything done with the bark? |
11723 | Is it a man who has palm trees or who sells dates? 11723 Is it any queerer,"asked her governess,"than to make it from leaves? |
11723 | Is it possible,said he,"that you are the daughter of the mayor of Rebenheim? |
11723 | Is it''the Mount of Olives''? |
11723 | Is n''t it funny,said Edith, laughing,"to go and get their breakfasts from a_ tree_? |
11723 | Is n''t it wicked to kill the poor little birds? |
11723 | Is n''t it_ catkins_? |
11723 | Is n''t that silly? |
11723 | Is n''t that the tree that smells so in summer? |
11723 | Is n''t there something about that in the Bible, Miss Harson? |
11723 | Is that only one tree? |
11723 | Is that what our cedar- chests are made of to keep the moths from our winter clothes? |
11723 | Is that_ true_? |
11723 | Is the red birch really red, Miss Harson? |
11723 | Is there any story about it, Miss Harson? |
11723 | Is there any story about the ash? |
11723 | Is there anything more about hickory trees? |
11723 | Is there anything to tell about the spruce tree? |
11723 | Is_ that_ a mulberry too? |
11723 | Like India- rubber? |
11723 | Miss Harson,asked Clara, with a perplexed face,"what are catkins?" |
11723 | Miss Harson,asked Clara,"do people cut down real cherry trees to make the pretty red furniture like that in your room?" |
11723 | Miss Harson,asked Clara,"why are horse- chestnuts_ called_''horse- chestnuts''? |
11723 | Miss Harson,asked Edith, as the talk seemed to have come to an end,"is n''t there any more about apple trees? |
11723 | Miss Harson,asked Edith, very earnestly,"is n''t the palm tree in the Bible?" |
11723 | Miss Harson,asked Edith, with great earnestness,"has each of our hairs got a number on it? |
11723 | Miss Harson,said Clara,"when people talk about_ weeping_ willows, what do they mean? |
11723 | Miss Harson,said Clara,"wo n''t you tell us, please, how they get the caoutch-- whatever it is-- and make it into India- rubber?" |
11723 | Miss Harson,said Malcolm,"what is the upas tree like, and why is it called_ deadly_?" |
11723 | Not the orange, I hope? |
11723 | Oh, was it you? |
11723 | Oh,exclaimed Edith,"was n''t that dreadful?" |
11723 | Perhaps,said Miss Harson,"our little invalid will not care to hear about trees this evening?" |
11723 | Put what does he do when there is no fresh fruit on them? |
11723 | Shall we have some figs now, by way of variety? |
11723 | So Edie''s''loaves of bread''are green? |
11723 | So they are like feathers? |
11723 | That seems easy enough,said Malcolm,"but how do they make it into gutta- percha?" |
11723 | The kind of olives that papa likes to eat at dinner, and that you and I_ do n''t_ like, Miss Harson? |
11723 | There are no lime trees here, are there? |
11723 | This is n''t a pine tree, is it? |
11723 | Was n''t that dreadful? |
11723 | Was n''t that splendid? |
11723 | Was n''t that wicked, Miss Harson? |
11723 | Well, dear,said Miss Harson, coming to the upper window from which an eager head was thrust,"what is it that you wish me to see?" |
11723 | Well,observed Malcolm,"I do n''t want half an apple.--But, Miss Harson, do they ever have''pear- howlings''in England?" |
11723 | Were there any Indians there, Miss Harson? |
11723 | Were those cherries like ours? |
11723 | Were those weeping willows that we saw to- day? |
11723 | What are oak-_galls_, Miss Harson? |
11723 | What are pitch- knots? |
11723 | What are prickly- pears? |
11723 | What are you thinking about so seriously, Clara? |
11723 | What color are the flowers, Miss Harson? |
11723 | What did my little Edith see when she looked out of the window? |
11723 | What do you notice about them? |
11723 | What does a''palmer''mean, Miss Harson? |
11723 | What does a_ wild_ olive tree mean, Miss Harson? |
11723 | What is the matter, children? |
11723 | What is''a howling crop,''Miss Harson? |
11723 | What kept it from turning into stone too? |
11723 | What kind grow in_ our_ woods? |
11723 | What kind of chestnuts,asked Clara,"are those great big ones, like horse- chestnuts, that they have in some of the stores? |
11723 | What makes it look so_ yellow_ over there, Miss Harson? |
11723 | What tree comes next, Miss Harson? |
11723 | What was the matter? |
11723 | What''s the use of cones, any way? |
11723 | What''s the use,asked Malcolm,"of calling a tree such a name as_ mocker- nut_? |
11723 | When it is not the season for nuts? |
11723 | Where do the real figs grow? |
11723 | Where does slippery elm come from? |
11723 | Who can repeat some words from the New Testament about this mountain? |
11723 | Who put it there, I should like to know, on_ our_ land? |
11723 | Why does n''t the man shoot''em? |
11723 | Why, I thought,said Clara,"that silkworms always lived on mulberry- leaves?" |
11723 | Why, do you not remember our talk about silkworms? |
11723 | Why,_ we_ have only one,exclaimed little Edith,"and we do n''t want any more.--Do we, Clara?" |
11723 | Will it grow then? |
11723 | Wo n''t you have a story for us this evening, Miss Harson? |
11723 | Wo n''t you tell us about that, Miss Harson? |
11723 | Would n''t it be nice,said Edith,"if some would float here?" |
11723 | You, then,said she,"were the good angel that averted such a terrible misfortune from our family?" |
11723 | _ Real_ pink trees? |
11723 | *****"''Children, when in prayers and praises Loudly we with lips adore, While the heart no anthem raises, Are not we like those of yore? |
11723 | *****"Is n''t it beautiful?" |
11723 | --What is''the glory of Lebanon,''Miss Harson?" |
11723 | Am I right or not when I give Caroline the credit, under God, of having saved my life? |
11723 | And is n''t it camphor?" |
11723 | Are they good to eat?" |
11723 | But I think you all can tell me when the hemlock is prettiest?" |
11723 | But did n''t you say, Miss Harson, that it''s always called basswood in our country?" |
11723 | But do n''t figs ever grow in this country, Miss Harson?" |
11723 | But do you know that we have left the apple and rose family now, and have come to the almond family?" |
11723 | But he does n''t gnaw our trees, does he?" |
11723 | But how do they get it out, Miss Harson? |
11723 | But the children thought that hemlock was hemlock: how did it come to be spruce? |
11723 | But what does it mean?" |
11723 | Ca n''t we get some this spring, Miss Harson, before it''s all gone?" |
11723 | Can not one of you tell me where there are some tall, narrow trees that look almost as if they had been cut out of wood and stuck there?" |
11723 | Did n''t I see them first?" |
11723 | Did not our Lord say something else about a fig tree?" |
11723 | Did they have any in Maine where you were, Miss Harson?" |
11723 | Do horses like''em?" |
11723 | Do n''t they ever put their heads out the least bit, Miss Harson?" |
11723 | Do the trees really cry? |
11723 | Do they cut great holes in the trunk of the tree?" |

11723 | I wonder if some one can tell me about it?" |
11723 | I wonder if you would like to hear the story about it?" |
11723 | In the first place, I should object very much to living in the tent with you, and how could you possibly live there alone?" |
11723 | Is anything done with the bark?" |
11723 | Is it good to eat?" |
11723 | Is n''t that funny, Miss Harson?" |
11723 | Is n''t that very queer, Miss Harson?" |
11723 | Now who can tell_ me_ something about this tree?" |
11723 | Perhaps you will kindly tell us of some of the uses to which charcoal is applied?" |
11723 | Tell me,"said he, in a tone of deep emotion;"was not that little child an instrument in the hand of God to save me from death? |

11723 | Why could n''t you say''India- rubber''?" |
11723 | Why do n''t they, Miss Harson, instead of getting killed?" |
11723 | Why_ would_ people always laugh when there was nothing to laugh at? |
