10872 | And now,said the captain, sternly, to his daughter,"how dare you sit and talk to that young cub? |
10872 | And where do you think of sleeping to- night? |
10872 | Besides, what business is it of yours? |

10872 | Is Master Jack agreeable to going, sir? |

10872 | It''s a bit rough on Teddy, is n''t it? |
10872 | Master Jack, you mean? |
10872 | Me or''i m? |
10872 | Me or''im-- which is it to be? |
10872 | Not that,said Mr. Nugent, whose intellect had suddenly become painfully acute--"not her?" |
10872 | Sermon? |
10872 | Strength of will? |
10872 | That''s all,said Nugent;"sounds easy enough, does n''t it? |
10872 | Well, I''ll do what I can for you,he observed,"but I suppose you know Kate''s off for a three months''visit to London to- morrow?" |
10872 | Well, now you''re''ere,he said, with a great assumption of cordiality,"why not come in and''ave a cup o''tea?" |

10872 | What''s that got to do with it? |
10872 | What''s the matter with my clothes? 10872 What, with me''ere?" |
10872 | When a handsome young man and a good- looking girl----"Do you want to buy anything or not? |
10872 | Who''s Captain Nugent, I should like to know? 10872 Who''s trying to taunt you?" |
10872 | Who?--What? |
10872 | Why did n''t you come out, then? |
10872 | Why not? |
10872 | Why should n''t it? 10872 Why, what does it matter?" |
10872 | Why? 10872 Why?" |
10872 | Wonder why he never married,said Hardy, musingly;"for my part I ca n''t understand a man remaining single all his life; can you?" |
10872 | Wot d''ye mean-- near the grave? |
10872 | Wot''s the row? |
10872 | You have n''t had a blow on the head or anything of that sort at any time, have you? |
10872 | You''re not going to keep on at this water- side work, I suppose? |
10872 | You''re not going''ome? |
10872 | _ Married?_Mr. Nugent nodded. |
10872 | _ Uncle jemmy!_--will you tip us half- crowns, nunky? |
10872 | Besides, what''s it got to do with you?" |
10872 | But why not get hold of the young one? |
10872 | Can you remember?" |
10872 | Do you know, I fancy she''s grown up rather good- looking, Jem?" |
10872 | Do you remember how you used to knock me about?" |
10872 | Eh? |
10872 | Hardy?" |
10872 | Have you seen your father? |
10872 | How are you, Sam?" |
10872 | How are you?" |
10872 | How dare you?" |
10872 | How''s Teddy?" |
10872 | I suppose you know she''s been married once?" |
10872 | Job? |
10872 | Mr. Wilks wriggled:"But what about signing on, sir?" |
10872 | Nugent?" |
10872 | Silk,"might I arsk you not to be so free with my Christian name?" |
10872 | The way she----""How is your cold?" |
10872 | What do you mean?" |
10872 | What shall we call him? |
10872 | What''s that work you''re doing? |
10872 | Where are you living now?" |
10872 | Who can tell?" |
10872 | Who put that rubbish on my counter?" |
10872 | Why do n''t you get on with that fancy waistcoat you are doing for me?" |
10872 | Why should n''t I? |
10872 | Why should n''t everybody enjoy their lives? |
10872 | Why should''e mind being told of it? |
10872 | Wot would you say to young Nugent coming into five''undred pounds''is mother left''i m when he''s twenty- five? |
10872 | [ Illustration:"''What do you want?'' |
10872 | [ Illustration:"Me or''im-- which is it to be?"] |
10872 | inquired Jim, looking up--"a grandfather?" |
10872 | said the smiling visitor;"what for?" |
10873 | ''Ave you made all the arrangements? |
10873 | A stowaway? |
10873 | An''wot about the five pounds? |
10873 | And beer? |
10873 | And''ow are you, Bella? |
10873 | Are you going to give me a cabin? |
10873 | Are you managing this affair or am I? |
10873 | Bright, cheerful young chap,''e is,said Mr. Smith;"you''ve knowed''i m ever since he was a baby, have n''t you?" |
10873 | But what''s it all about? |
10873 | But you do n''t think Captain Nugent is in London, do you? |
10873 | But''ow are you going to manage so as to make one silly and not the other? |
10873 | Did the cap''n see''i m aboard? |
10873 | Do n''t you know it''s punishable? |
10873 | Four o''clock,murmured the senior partner;"had n''t you better see about making yourself presentable, Hardy?" |
10873 | Going home? |
10873 | Harsh? |
10873 | Ho, is it? |
10873 | How did I get here? |
10873 | How did he get aboard here? |
10873 | How did this man get aboard here? 10873 How do you mean-- odd?" |
10873 | How is it I did n''t go home? 10873 I s''pose you know wot you''re about?" |
10873 | I s''pose you miss the capt''in very much? |
10873 | If the captain is n''t in London, where is he? |
10873 | In my bed? |
10873 | Is Mrs. Kingdom at''ome? |
10873 | Is it dangerous? |
10873 | Know what? |
10873 | Me? |
10873 | Partikler old party, ai n''t he, Bill? |
10873 | Tell them? |
10873 | Then perhaps you would n''t mind doing my work for me, so that I can go? |
10873 | Think not? |
10873 | Told he was in your bed? |
10873 | Was I tapping it? |
10873 | Well, where is the governor, then? |
10873 | Well, why do n''t you take her? |
10873 | Well? |
10873 | Well? |
10873 | What am I to tell them? |
10873 | What are you making that face for, Sam? |
10873 | What are you staring at? |
10873 | What does all this mean? |
10873 | What for? |
10873 | What is the news to which you referred just now? 10873 What on earth are you doing on my ship?" |
10873 | What''s it all about? |
10873 | What''s your message? |
10873 | When''s he coming back? |
10873 | Where''s the beer? |
10873 | Who told you? |
10873 | Why did n''t he go home last night? 10873 Why did you tell me last night he was up- stairs?" |
10873 | Why not go an''see your father? 10873 Why not, Dan''l,"asked his wife,"if the two families is to be connected?" |
10873 | Why not? |
10873 | Why should you think my father wanted your bed? |
10873 | Why, has he gone away? |
10873 | Wot did you put it all on to me for? 10873 Wot do you say to a couple o''pounds?" |
10873 | Wot do you say to a glass o''whisky? |
10873 | Wot do you want it for? |
10873 | Would it be far out of your way? |
10873 | You do n''t expect to get the truth out of him, do you? |
10873 | You do n''t think I''d leave you here alone helpless, do you? |
10873 | You have come to explain your extraordinary behaviour of this morning, I suppose? |
10873 | You-- harsh to me? |
10873 | And if so, what was his condition? |
10873 | And where was the five pounds? |
10873 | But perhaps you''ll sell it to me? |
10873 | Can you account for it?" |
10873 | D''ye hear? |
10873 | D''ye''ear that, mates? |
10873 | D''you think it''s conscience biting of me? |
10873 | Do n''t you think so, ma''am?" |
10873 | Have you got much to do, Hardy?" |
10873 | How much?" |
10873 | I s''pose you''ve got some salt in the house?" |
10873 | Is it about my father?" |
10873 | Is that terbacker in that canister there?" |
10873 | Prowle?" |
10873 | Was the captain upstairs? |
10873 | What should we do without it, I wonder?" |
10873 | Where is my father?" |
10873 | Where was Nathan Smith? |
10873 | Who are your confederates?" |
10873 | Who knows but wot he''s a thinking of doing something for you?" |
10873 | Why did n''t you let me know?" |
10873 | Why did n''t you tell''em your part in it?" |
10873 | Why do n''t you get to the point?" |
10873 | Wilks?" |
10873 | Wot are you a- tapping your nose for?" |
10873 | You know Mrs. Kybird and Miss Kybird? |
10873 | [ Illustration:"Had n''t you better see about making yourself presentable, Hardy?"] |
10873 | demanded the incensed Mr. Wilks; where''s the beer, you underhanded swab?" |
10873 | repeated the other;"you call a whaling cruise a little trip?" |
10874 | ''Ow can you be distantly civil when she lives just opposite? |
10874 | ''Ow''s that cough o''yours getting on, Nat? |
10874 | And I suppose some of the sailors were kind to you? |
10874 | And been apologized to for coming on board, I suppose? |
10874 | And if you''re successful, am I to have the pleasure of your company for the rest of my life? |
10874 | And what about me? |
10874 | And what about your foot, Wilks? |
10874 | And you-- you spoke to him? |
10874 | Are you coming to the point or are you not? |
10874 | Are you goin''to send Cap''n Nugent an invite for the wedding? |
10874 | Are you going my way? |
10874 | Are you going to hold up or are n''t you? |
10874 | Are you still desirous of preventing it? |
10874 | Back? 10874 Back?" |
10874 | Brought''i m''ome? |
10874 | But you do n''t want them to marry? |
10874 | Ca n''t you let her see that her attentions are undesirable? |
10874 | Ca n''t you let her see that her attentions are undesirable? |
10874 | Do you mean to tell me that you''ve been speaking to young Hardy? |

10874 | How dare he come to my house? 10874 How much do you want?" |
10874 | How much? |
10874 | I suppose you did n''t get to hear of the cable that was sent? |
10874 | I suppose you wo n''t stay and pick a bit o''sup- per with us? |
10874 | I''m sorry you''ve had the trouble,said the captain, in a voice of suppressed anger;"and now may I ask you to get out of my house?" |
10874 | I''ope you ai n''t lost nobody, Sam? |
10874 | If you did n''t want Captain Nugent aboard with you why did n''t you put him ashore? 10874 Is it a bargain?" |
10874 | Is it too bad for you to take me home, Sam? |
10874 | Is that the way to talk to a sick man? 10874 Matter with it?" |
10874 | Mrs. Kingdom well? |
10874 | Nathan Smith? |
10874 | Nice- looking, is n''t he? |
10874 | Of course, you and Jack are already good friends? |
10874 | One is engaged to marry the daughter of the shadiest rascal in Sunwich, and the other--"And the other? |
10874 | Play? |
10874 | Seems a bit''ard, do n''t it? |
10874 | Shall I go in and see him for you? |
10874 | There''s always Sam Wilks''s cottage,he said, in a husky whisper;"and if two of''is friends_ should_''appen to meet there, who''d be the wiser?" |
10874 | Well? |
10874 | Were you here when he called? |
10874 | What are you listening to''i m for? 10874 What became of him?" |

10874 | What? |
10874 | What? |
10874 | When are you coming back? |
10874 | When did it come on? 10874 When did you have the last, Swann? |
10874 | Who did? |
10874 | Who? |
10874 | Why do you wish to be on friendly terms? |
10874 | Why not let him know your wishes? |
10874 | Why not? |
10874 | Why not? |
10874 | Why not? |
10874 | Why would you like to sit here all that time? |
10874 | Why? |
10874 | Will you come inside for a minute or two? |
10874 | You are quite sure, I suppose, that your visits would be agreeable to my daughter? |
10874 | You do n''t mean to tell me,he said, slowly;"you do n''t mean to tell me that you''re thinking anything of Kate Nugent?" |
10874 | You do n''t mind? |
10874 | Am I to take forcible measures?" |
10874 | Ca n''t you see what''s the matter with''i m?" |
10874 | Does he seem cheerful?" |
10874 | Has she given you any encouragement?" |
10874 | Has your health been all right while I''ve been away?" |
10874 | Have you got any chance?" |
10874 | Have you seen young Nugent lately? |
10874 | How long have you had it?" |
10874 | Murchison is there nearly every day, I understand; I suppose you meet him there?" |
10874 | Perhaps you''ll let me walk down with you?" |
10874 | Shall I ring for the nurse?" |
10874 | What are you going to give him if he gets poor Jack out of this miserable business?" |
10874 | What have you got against me? |
10874 | What is the news?" |
10874 | What shall I wear?" |
10874 | What''s the result? |
10874 | Whose is it?" |
10874 | Why not put it higher up on the coat?" |
10874 | You do n''t mind my doing anything shabby?" |
10874 | [ Illustration:"''Ca n''t you let her see that her attentions are undesirable?''"] |
10874 | [ Illustration:"''Why do you wish to be on friendly terms?'' |
10874 | [ Illustration:"Are you goin''to send Cap''n Nugent an invite for the wedding?"] |
10874 | demanded the other, defiantly;"why should n''t I?" |
10874 | said the unconscious Mr. Wilks;"wot foot?" |
10874 | stuttered the captain, explosively;"smoke a pipe with ME?" |
34929 | Ai n''t intendin''to pine away, are you, Jack? |
34929 | And oh, Jack, I suppose you ca n''t imagine what had become of us? 34929 And what about you, Frieda Ralston?" |
34929 | Are you ill, Jack? |
34929 | Are you so sure Captain Madden does mean your happiness? |
34929 | Better keep a string attached to our one ewe lamb, do n''t you think, Ruth dear? |
34929 | But do n''t you care for Frank? |
34929 | But how, when, where? |
34929 | But oh, Ruth, you do understand how grateful I am to you and Mr. Colter for all you have done for me? 34929 But why foolish? |
34929 | But you will not mention it to Ruth or Jim or any of the girls? 34929 But, my beloved Ruth, what have we to do but get ourselves and our belongings into cabs and drive to our hotel? |
34929 | Can you guess whom I represent? |
34929 | Could anybody ever know you and love you? 34929 Dear me, Ruth Drew,"this girl now began in mock tragic tones,"you do n''t suppose that our infant has fallen overboard already, do you? |
34929 | Do I look almost as well as Jean? |
34929 | Do n''t we want you to be happy too, Jack? 34929 Do you expect to live always at Rainbow Lodge, Jack?" |
34929 | Do you think that Olive likes Frank Kent better than anybody else? |
34929 | Do you? |
34929 | Frieda is the star of us all, is n''t she? |
34929 | How on earth did you decide to come? 34929 I wonder if it has ever occurred to you that Frank Kent cared, well, cared more than just an ordinary lot for Olive? |
34929 | If you mean Frank Kent or Captain Madden, why of course I like both of them, do n''t you? |
34929 | Is it that you do not wish more of my society? |
34929 | Jack, let''s go away from Rome in a few days? |
34929 | Jack,he said slowly,"do n''t you know me? |
34929 | Oh, Jim, oh Mr. Colter, why did n''t you tell us you were coming to London? 34929 Please help me up the gang- plank when we go on board, Olive dear?" |
34929 | Ruth and Jim? |
34929 | See here, boss,he began after a moment,"you and I''ve been pretty much on the level with each other_ all the time_, have n''t we? |
34929 | The face of the waters gets a bit tiresome after a while, do n''t you think so? |
34929 | Then why, baby mine, when you came back from dreamland did you not struggle into the hall and find out what had become of your family? |
34929 | They are rather funny, do n''t you think? |
34929 | Well, we are n''t getting them settled very quickly today, are we, Jim? |
34929 | What did she tell you, Olive? |
34929 | What is the use of pretending to be a heroine when it is not true? 34929 Where have you been and what has happened to you? |
34929 | Why be in such a hurry, Frieda mia? |
34929 | Why do n''t you answer me? |
34929 | Would you like me to tell Jack then, Olive dear? |
34929 | Your dislike of foreigners does not include Englishmen, does it, cousin of mine? |
34929 | And afterwards in Rome and the last month since our arrival in England, why have n''t you_ seen_ the change in her? |
34929 | And is n''t he always possessed of the idea that we will be late for things and that unknown catastrophes will overtake us? |
34929 | And only a few moments before had she not secretly hoped to make a favorable impression upon this most interesting of their fellow voyagers? |
34929 | And then, as though she must have sympathy in her enjoyment from some quarter:"Is n''t this storm splendid? |
34929 | And then,"Whatever in the world, Jean, has made you so cross about Captain Madden? |
34929 | And will you make my excuses to Lady Kent at dinner? |
34929 | Are n''t you glad to see me? |
34929 | As he had traveled and spent other seasons in Rome, surely he would be an agreeable guide and help them to see the right things in the right way? |
34929 | At this instant Jean wondered if any one ever really changed in the leading traits of character? |
34929 | Because of her own recent experience why should she be dwelling so much on one subject? |
34929 | Besides, if we are to see enough of Europe to count, this summer, ought we not to be starting out again?" |
34929 | Besides, this morning we are tired and do n''t you see that Ruth, Jean and Olive are deeply engaged in laying out our plan of campaign? |
34929 | Besides, was she not well by this time and the railing of the deck but a few feet away? |
34929 | Besides, was the boy not standing right there by the door? |
34929 | Besides, what answer had she to make to her cousin? |
34929 | Besides, what in the world did they know of him except what he himself had told them? |
34929 | But could Jack forget these things and care for him notwithstanding? |
34929 | But what can have become of her?" |
34929 | But what could she, what should she say? |
34929 | But, please, would you mind if I cried a while? |
34929 | CHAPTER XVIII RELIEF OR REGRET? |
34929 | Could a girl not quite twenty suffer much over an interrupted love affair? |
34929 | Could she actually have felt young enough not a month ago to have entered into such an agreement with all seriousness? |
34929 | Could she ever endure the mother''s acquaintance for the sake of the son''s? |
34929 | Could she have been making a hero in her mind of a man who was no hero at all? |
34929 | Did Jack guess that her education was about to be solemnly taken in hand? |
34929 | Did he know that this appeal would be the surest way to awaken her sympathies? |
34929 | Do n''t you think so yourself, Jean?" |
34929 | Do n''t you think we have had enough of Rome? |
34929 | Do n''t you think, after all, perhaps Olive likes Donald Harmon more than we guess? |
34929 | Do you know these lines of Byron''s in Childe Harold?" |
34929 | Do you think Ralph Merrit has ever been in love with Jean? |
34929 | For had she not once acted as Jim Colter''s upright judge? |
34929 | For how could she ask assistance of people to whom she had been so rude and overbearing but a short time before? |
34929 | For how could she possibly have guessed how her point of view typified that of many American travelers? |
34929 | For, although Jack''s right to sorrow was certainly greater than theirs, until now, had she not been the strongest and most hopeful of them all? |
34929 | Had she not imagined several years ago that Olive liked Frank better than any other young man of their acquaintance? |
34929 | Have n''t you forgiven me after almost three years? |
34929 | He wore a dark blue coat, blue- gray trousers, a white cap and belt, so how could a newcomer have known him to be a member of the Roman garrison? |
34929 | How can a girl ever marry a man twice as old as she is?" |
34929 | How could a little New England girl like you know anything about an accomplished rascal like this fellow Madden? |
34929 | How could they bear the ten unendurable days before their ship reached Gibraltar and the second ten of their return journey to New York? |
34929 | How did Frank Kent happen to come to Rome at this especial time? |
34929 | I am going to ask her what she_ really_ was doing?" |
34929 | I am so anxious to talk to you?" |
34929 | I do n''t want to keep the rest of you waiting, but ca n''t I stay here by myself for a few moments, Ruth? |
34929 | If she could not be found on the ship, what were they to do? |
34929 | If you knew anything against him on shipboard why did n''t you tell me?" |
34929 | Is it Frank Kent who has told you? |
34929 | Is n''t Rome dismal today? |
34929 | Is n''t that the American slang?" |
34929 | Jack''s only present problem was:"Did she care enough?" |
34929 | Moreover, had she not just been called plump before everybody at their table? |
34929 | Nevertheless, Captain Madden was twice Jack''s age, and why should they not be friends? |
34929 | Oh, what on earth shall we do?" |
34929 | One wonders how the man had come to appreciate Jacqueline Ralston''s nature so thoroughly in the few weeks of their acquaintance? |
34929 | Or do you suspect some one of having run away with her? |
34929 | RELIEF OR REGRET? |
34929 | She did not mind his age, for how could he have known all that he did had he been younger? |
34929 | So if Ruth and Jean and Olive and I are weary of Rome and want to go away, do n''t you think it your duty to do what we like? |
34929 | Still, dear, wo n''t you promise me at least not to see Captain Madden again until we have heard from Jim?" |
34929 | THE WEDDING DAY 234 LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS"JACK, DON''T YOU KNOW ME?" |
34929 | Tell me what has happened and where you wish to go?" |
34929 | Then she asked herself: Was there no one in Rome who could tell them of Captain Madden''s history? |
34929 | Then, summoning more strength of character, she continued,"I wonder if you would mind telling us your name? |
34929 | Then, too, had he not saved her life? |
34929 | They are not so big for one thing, are they, Ruth?" |
34929 | To stay-- Jack wondered how far in her present mood she might trust herself? |
34929 | Was there any question in the world farther from her imagination than this unexpected one? |
34929 | What a delicate mission she had taken upon herself and how ever was she to perform it? |
34929 | What could he have to say to her which her chaperon should not hear? |
34929 | What girl or woman can ever fail to be? |
34929 | What had she said that was in the least amusing, when she had just made a plain statement of fact? |
34929 | What now must be his judgment of her? |
34929 | What was your reason?" |
34929 | What will Mr. Colter think and say?" |
34929 | Whatever put it into your mind? |
34929 | When did you come? |
34929 | Where did you leave her, Jean, when you came on board the second time after going ashore for another farewell to Mr. Colter? |
34929 | Where was their old energetic desire to take long walks, to rise up early and certainly never to waste a moment in a nap in the afternoon? |
34929 | Who on earth could he be? |
34929 | Why did Jack not run to shelter? |
34929 | Why did you come?" |
34929 | Why is it you have been unwilling to listen, Jack? |
34929 | Why should a marriage have made so great a change in her point of view? |
34929 | Why should she think of home so suddenly? |
34929 | Why should the nights in Naples recall moonlit evenings on the ranch which they had spent together years before? |
34929 | Why were her fingers so cold and her cheeks so warm? |
34929 | Will you give me my answer then?" |
34929 | Will you stay with me as much as possible until you can find out what I have asked you?" |
34929 | Would her New England conscience never allow her to be satisfied with telling only half the truth? |
34929 | Would life ever make her lose her faith in her ideals and in the few persons to whom she would give her undivided love? |
34929 | Would n''t you like me to buy it for you, or maybe you can think of some other little remembrance?" |
34929 | Would she call on them in Rome and afterwards invite them to meet her friends? |
34929 | Yet what could his confession mean? |
34929 | [ Illustration: HER TONE WAS THAT OF ABSOLUTE AUTHORITY] So why should she be making herself so ridiculous before a total stranger? |
34929 | [ Illustration:"JACK, DON''T YOU KNOW ME?"] |
39594 | And now you''re sure he''s not the one the stars have destined for you? |
39594 | And now? |
39594 | And that''s all very well for poets and priests and young idealists to dream of, but when all''s said and done, what''s the good? 39594 And you could n''t stay longah?" |
39594 | Are you sleepy? |
39594 | Aunt Alicia,she asked presently,"were you_ suah_ at the time that you were making no mistake? |
39594 | But grandfathah, how could you tell at such a distance? |
39594 | But what finally showed you? |
39594 | Dear little son, you want to help mother get well, do n''t you, lamb? 39594 Dear, is n''t there_ anything_ I could do to make myself worthier in your sight? |
39594 | Did you know that your trunks came while you were at the post- office? |
39594 | Do n''t I know the haughty Princess well enough to be sure that all the king''s horses and all the king''s men could n''t budge her against her will? 39594 Do n''t you remembah Kitty and Guy Ferris at that age? |
39594 | Do you remember the day Malcolm broke through when he was trying to cake- walk on the ice? |
39594 | Does n''t it seem queer to think of Allison''s being engaged? 39594 How can people exist in such an awful desolate, forsaken spot?" |
39594 | How can you sit there taking it so calmly? 39594 How is that?" |
39594 | How is this pose? |
39594 | I? 39594 Is n''t her hair a glory, up there in the sunshine?" |
39594 | Is n''t it deah? |
39594 | Is n''t it dreadful? 39594 Is n''t it glorious?" |
39594 | Is n''t it lovely? |
39594 | Is n''t that characteristic of Mary? |
39594 | Is n''t that sweet? |
39594 | Is she shot? |
39594 | Is the change in him or is it in me? |
39594 | Is the game worth the candle? |
39594 | Is you got a sand- pile to your house? |
39594 | It is n''t that same old one she was at work on at school, is it? |
39594 | Mothah,she asked, breaking a long comfortable silence that had fallen on them,"do you think that Lucy is happy?" |
39594 | Now how does that make you feel, Miss Elizabeth Lloyd Lewis? |
39594 | Now which way? |
39594 | Oh Lloyd,_ ca n''t_ you come? 39594 Oh, are you all going to buy the Cabin?" |
39594 | Oh, when? |
39594 | Oh,_ where''s_ the light? |

39594 | Why do n''t you read your letters? |
39594 | Why do n''t_ you_ take him in hand? 39594 Why on earth did you do that?" |
39594 | Why? |
39594 | Will I be Judge Cywus Edwa''d Bannon then when I''m gwoed up? |
39594 | Will you ever forget that first time we saw her, when she came out to play the violin at the Freshman reception? 39594 Would n''t Kitty have looked adorable in that darling old hat tied under her chin? |

39594 | CHAPTER VI"GARDEN FANCIES""OH, where are you going, my pretty maid?" |
39594 | Can you wonder that it makes me radiantly happy to have you girls think that I have in a measure succeeded?" |

39594 | Did it evah occur to you that I might not want to be taken possession of in that high- handed way? |
39594 | Did n''t you get that letter? |
39594 | Did n''t you have any doubts or misgivings about the doctah''s being the right one?" |
39594 | Do n''t you remembah what Madam Chartley said in her lovely farewell speech to the graduating class? |
39594 | Do n''t you suppose it made the whole world seem different, that they''re not yet done wondering ovah the surprise and joy of it?" |
39594 | Do n''t you think so?" |
39594 | God would understand, would n''t he? |
39594 | Have n''t you as much interest in my welfare as in yoah sistah''s husband''s brothah?" |
39594 | He could n''t help himself when she looks like that, and then where would all my plans be for poor Leland?" |
39594 | He turned the wheel and sprang out, asking eagerly,"Is it anywhere that I can take you?" |
39594 | Heah me? |
39594 | How can I give up this hope that has grown with my growth till it means more than everything else in the world to me? |
39594 | How can I live all the rest of my life without it? |
39594 | How can we manage it?" |
39594 | How could I be so careless when I''m to have a real live authoress to dinner? |
39594 | How did you evah manage to dress yoahself right befoah I grew up to tend to you?" |

39594 | Is she as much of a baby as ever? |
39594 | Is there no method to tell her in Spanish June is twice June since she''s breathed it with me?''" |
39594 | It makes you think of white things, does n''t it? |
39594 | It_ would_ be sweet and romantic, would n''t it? |
39594 | Lloyd, what''s become of that boy out in Arizona, the one who sent you those orange- blossoms in Joyce''s letter when I was here before? |
39594 | Oh by the way, where_ is_ Betty? |
39594 | Oh, deah, did n''t we used to have fun with her down on our ice pond?" |
39594 | Robin Adair? |
39594 | Set me a task? |
39594 | She called out suddenly,"Sister, ca n''t you find that duet for us? |
39594 | She was looking so pensively past the gay scene that he bent over her, humming in a low tone:"''What''s this dull town to me? |
39594 | Speech half- asleep or song half- awake? |
39594 | That_ I_ might have something to say in the mattah? |
39594 | The boys all got to hailing him in Uncle Remus fashion,''Heyo, Brer Tarrypin, wha''r you bin dis long- come- short?'' |
39594 | The familiar sound was followed by a joyous barking from the Gordon setter, and then Rob''s voice called gaily,"Where are you, mother? |
39594 | Was it fourteen or fifteen years ago? |
39594 | Was it love or praise? |
39594 | Was n''t he charming tonight?" |
39594 | Was n''t it thrilling?" |
39594 | What Italy are you climbing after now?" |
39594 | What if somebody should see us? |
39594 | What right had he to be so savage over her friendship? |
39594 | What was it it reminded him of? |
39594 | What was''t I wished to see? |
39594 | What wished to hear?''" |
39594 | What''s that rhyme Betty made about her when she was flower- girl at her own mother''s wedding? |
39594 | What''s that she''s saying?" |
39594 | What''s the good of taking you to Commencement, if that''s all the impression it made?" |
39594 | What''s the use?" |

39594 | Where did you get this new photograph of Ranald Walton on yoah dressing table? |
39594 | Where''s Rob Moore and what is he doing? |
39594 | Why did n''t she come with you?" |
39594 | Why should n''t I?" |
39594 | Why should n''t she call down to him over the banister as she had always done? |
39594 | Will you evah forget the way Rob cake- walked with Mrs. Bisbee? |
39594 | With a significant glance in its direction she asked saucily,"Señor Tarrypin, when are you going to put your family motto into actual use? |
39594 | You are sure?" |
39594 | he said bitterly, but Lloyd answered shyly,"No, do n''t you see? |
15550 | A man in the road? 15550 All the way by trolley? |
15550 | An accident? |
15550 | And spend? |
15550 | Another shiny thing? 15550 Are all of you girls going to be dressed alike?" |
15550 | Are n''t we? |
15550 | Are n''t you going to do something with those sides-- those arms, or whatever you call them? |

15550 | Did you say,''Come, come,''just because you heard it? 15550 Do I understand that you''re really appealing to me to learn my scheme?" |
15550 | Do I understand, Madam President,asked Roger,"that the chief officer of this distinguished Club has n''t any ideas to suggest?" |
15550 | Do n''t you think it pushes your elbows up too high? |
15550 | Do you recognize that piece of land? |
15550 | Do you remember those wild grape vines that Helen and Ethel Brown found in the West Woods and used for Hallowe''en decorations? 15550 Do you see these cleats, ma''am? |
15550 | Do you smell something queer? |
15550 | Do you suppose she''d be willing to teach us how to do it? 15550 Do you suppose these old walls are in good enough condition to go uncovered?" |
15550 | Do you think it''s safe for Dicky to have an arrow as sharp as that? |
15550 | Do you think that was a lightning- bolt and it set the house on fire? |
15550 | Do you think your talks are making any impressions on the mothers? |
15550 | Do you throw it? |
15550 | Do you want cushions for those chairs? |
15550 | Had we better appoint committees for making the different investigations? |
15550 | Had we better tell Mrs. Schuler about the embroidery class plan? |
15550 | Has any one any suggestions? |
15550 | Has n''t anybody else any ideas? |
15550 | Have n''t you heard Father say so a dozen times? |
15550 | Have you heard lately from your doctor in Oklahoma? |
15550 | Have you talked about it with Mother and Aunt Louise? |
15550 | How about music? |
15550 | How are we ever going to teach them the madness of such behavior? |
15550 | How are we going to fill it? |
15550 | How are we going to serve them? 15550 How are you going to fasten that seat so it wo n''t let the sitter down on the floor?" |
15550 | How are you going to make it look like a rose and not a pink bell? |
15550 | How did you get back so soon? |
15550 | How did you get here? |
15550 | How do you make them? |
15550 | How doeth it work? |
15550 | How high from the ground does the seat go? |
15550 | How is your patient? |
15550 | How to make over the house, you mean? |
15550 | How will you manage that? |
15550 | How would you like to trolley back to New York? |
15550 | Hungry, eh? |
15550 | If it''s Algernon''s it ought to have-- how many guineas was it? |
15550 | Is it early enough? |
15550 | Is it furnished? |
15550 | Is it guineas ye''re speaking about? |
15550 | Is it marked''Gertrude''? |
15550 | Is n''t this where the big college boat races are rowed? |
15550 | Is the baby in the street? |
15550 | Is this a very old town? |
15550 | Just us three? |
15550 | Me being the helper? |
15550 | Mine? |
15550 | Not a cat? |
15550 | Shall we appoint Ethel Brown to call on Mrs. Schuler and talk it over with her? 15550 Shall we have all the different kinds of flowers we can find or select one kind?" |
15550 | Sleepy now? |
15550 | Sunstroke? |
15550 | Taught? 15550 The ones we gave a''show''for?" |
15550 | There''s your house provided and furnished after a fashion-- how are you going to run it? |
15550 | They always used flint, did n''t they? |
15550 | They have you pretty often, do n''t they? |
15550 | Walked? |
15550 | Was it hard to make? 15550 Was it like these, Vladdy?" |
15550 | We''ve had so many entertainments; can we do anything different enough for the Rosemonters to be willing to come? |
15550 | Were you planning to paint them? |
15550 | What are you youngsters plotting? |
15550 | What can they be doing? |
15550 | What did he do with thith arrowhead? |
15550 | What did the shinies look like, son? |
15550 | What did you find in the fireplace this morning, Moya? 15550 What do you suggest for these upstairs floors, Miss Merriam? |
15550 | What do you think of this plan? |
15550 | What does he mean by his''shinies''? |
15550 | What have you been doing? |
15550 | What have you got there, small blessing? |
15550 | What is it? |
15550 | What shiny thing? |
15550 | What were you trying to do? |
15550 | What you doing that for? |
15550 | What''s the matter, old man? 15550 What''s the matter? |
15550 | What''s this, what''s this? |
15550 | What''s to prevent the plates sliding off? |
15550 | What''th a bow? |
15550 | What''th an arrow? |
15550 | What''th that? |
15550 | Where are they all? |
15550 | Where could we have it--_it_ meaning our sale or whatever we decide to have? |
15550 | Where have you been now? |
15550 | Where in the world did you get those? |
15550 | Where on the floor? |
15550 | Where''s the money to come from? |
15550 | Who gave them to you? |
15550 | Who''s got a piece of string? |
15550 | Who? 15550 Why ca n''t Ethel Blue and I each make a high chair?" |
15550 | Why ca n''t we have a cooky sale-- with a few other things thrown in-- and use the proceeds for the decoration and furnishing of Rose House? |
15550 | Why do n''t we get out, then? |
15550 | Why do you leave Elisabeth to look after herself in this fashion? 15550 Why is it called that?" |
15550 | Why not have it here? 15550 Would these be the shinies?" |
15550 | You do n''t recall West Point? |
15550 | You know the furniture they call''knockdown''? |
15550 | You never were taught to cook? |
15550 | You say you picked these up on the track, Dicky? |
15550 | You wo n''t think it impertinent if I figure out how much you''re worth, will you Miss Gertrude? |
15550 | All that money? |
15550 | And who''s her friend?" |
15550 | Are you sure he''ll make it well enough? |
15550 | Are your leggies tired? |
15550 | Can we reach them anywhere by telephone?" |
15550 | Can you eat these cookies?" |
15550 | Can you give me the lengths for these strips?" |
15550 | Do you see the veranda of the hotel? |
15550 | Does it take all of you to help Roger do that?" |
15550 | Does that seem old to you?" |
15550 | Get me?" |
15550 | Grandfather thought they were n''t bad enough to have new ones laid, but they do look rather rocky, do n''t they?" |
15550 | He''s still in the hospital, is n''t he?" |
15550 | How are these kiddies at Rose House?" |
15550 | How does it strike you?" |
15550 | How does that strike you?" |
15550 | How long will it take? |
15550 | How many inches?" |
15550 | I believe these children can mend it and paint it to look well enough for this room''?" |
15550 | I wonder, if Greg Patton would bring his fiddle?" |
15550 | If you''d like those--?" |
15550 | Is it a bargain?" |
15550 | Is n''t there some piece of furniture that they''d like better than anything else we could give them?" |
15550 | Is n''t there something we can call his attention to now to take his mind off Indians?" |
15550 | Is your eloquence equal to that strain, Ethel?" |
15550 | Ivery day I walked and walked and ivery day I carried the baby, for where could I leave her? |
15550 | Let''s see it?" |
15550 | Paterno?" |
15550 | Schuler?" |
15550 | See how these two- sided legs protect the edges of the box as well as make it decent looking?" |
15550 | Some one in Rosemont?" |
15550 | That pink room raises my spirits when--""--when you get_ blue_?" |
15550 | Treasury low?" |
15550 | Up on the headland?" |
15550 | Want the Ethels to carry you?" |
15550 | We could say on the poster that exceptionally choice roses will be on exhibition and sale and-- and why could n''t we take orders for the bushes? |
15550 | What did he do with it? |
15550 | What do you say?" |
15550 | What do you think?" |
15550 | What for?" |
15550 | Where did you find it, Ayleesabet?" |
15550 | Who? |
15550 | Why do n''t we have a class for international embroidery?" |
15550 | cried Ethel Brown, and"Would n''t Helen be just crazy over all the history of this region?" |
15550 | does n''t it? |
15550 | she cried breathlessly,"Is the house falling? |
15550 | she repeated,"mine?" |
45728 | ''Why do n''t you stay in a small town?'' 45728 Ah, Captain, you here too?" |
45728 | And I-- I can not even see her? |
45728 | And for--? |
45728 | And have you spoken to her? |
45728 | And it would n''t matter much if we were poor? |
45728 | And leave Macochee? |
45728 | And she--? |
45728 | And she--? |
45728 | And that''s all? |
45728 | And what are you doing now, or proposing to do? |
45728 | And what did I say? |
45728 | And what did she say? |
45728 | And will you be happy in that big city, away from every one you know, as the wife of a newspaper man? |
45728 | And you are happy? |
45728 | And you have nothing, you know of nothing? |
45728 | And you think we can? |
45728 | And you''re going to get out of it? |
45728 | And your father? |
45728 | Anything been going wrong lately? 45728 Are n''t you leaving out the best parts?" |
45728 | Are you Preacher Marley''s son? |
45728 | Are you going to? |
45728 | Are you happy? |
45728 | Are you so very much older now? |
45728 | Are you too cool? |
45728 | Beautiful? |
45728 | Been to college? |
45728 | But I thought there was to be no engagement? |
45728 | But could n''t I ride in beside you? |
45728 | But could n''t you? |
45728 | But do you know, dear, that I never liked it before? 45728 But is n''t he cruel?" |
45728 | But the devil of it is how''re you going to live? 45728 But what am I going to do? |
45728 | But what did you work at? 45728 But what for?" |
45728 | But what of papa? |
45728 | But what will you do? |
45728 | But where''ll I go? |
45728 | But where? |
45728 | But would n''t that make it look as if we were taking too much notice of it? |
45728 | But would n''t that--? |
45728 | But, Glenn, what about his drinking? |
45728 | By the way,he asked, as if the thought had just come to him,"how did Selah Dudley make his money?" |
45728 | Ca n''t we, dear? |
45728 | Ca n''t we? |
45728 | Ca n''t you be serious a moment? |
45728 | Ca n''t you tell mama now? |
45728 | Can you be happy in a little flat, without knowing anybody, and without being anybody? |
45728 | Chief deputy? |
45728 | Cigarettes? |
45728 | Connie? |
45728 | Could we? |
45728 | Could you? |
45728 | Did I hurt you? |
45728 | Did my little girl think her father had deserted her? |
45728 | Did n''t you talk to her about it when you were away? |
45728 | Did you ever read,he wrote,"Turgenieff''s_ Fathers and Sons_? |
45728 | Did you go riding this afternoon? |
45728 | Did you? 45728 Did you?" |
45728 | Do n''t you know,he went on,"ca n''t you see, that I love you?" |
45728 | Do n''t you know? |
45728 | Do n''t you like newspaper work? |
45728 | Do n''t you make any entry-- any memorandum? |
45728 | Do n''t you regret leaving it? |
45728 | Do n''t you remember? |
45728 | Do n''t you remember? |
45728 | Do n''t you see-- don''t you see that-- I love you? |
45728 | Do n''t you see? |
45728 | Do you have to board the threshers? |
45728 | Do you know where the well is? |
45728 | Do you know,he said,"that I could n''t remember what color your eyes were?" |
45728 | Do you remember that day? |
45728 | Do you think him capable of such baseness? |
45728 | Do you think it will ever be? |
45728 | Do you think that is so? |
45728 | Do you think we''d better have Doctor Pierce see her? |
45728 | Do you think we''re going to do all the work? 45728 Does he like Chicago?" |
45728 | Does he? |
45728 | Does n''t he say anything about you? |
45728 | Gathered it? 45728 Glenn?" |
45728 | Got any money? |
45728 | Guess you''re glad now I did n''t give you that job, eh? |
45728 | Had father entered the ministry yet? |
45728 | Had n''t you better take my coat? |
45728 | Has she been over there? |
45728 | Have you ever read any law? |
45728 | Have you noticed Lavinia? |
45728 | Have you seen him? |
45728 | Have you talked with her about it? |
45728 | He did n''t? 45728 He was n''t in the army, was he?" |
45728 | He''s in the office of Wade Powell-- I suppose he is the one, is n''t he? |
45728 | Here-- in my office? |
45728 | Here? |
45728 | How are you all? 45728 How are you, anyway?" |
45728 | How did you know anything was? |
45728 | How do you know? |
45728 | How does he know me? |
45728 | How is she? |
45728 | How long has it been? |
45728 | How long have we been gone? |
45728 | How long have you and Lavinia known each other? |
45728 | How long was you there? |
45728 | How old was father when you were married, mother? |
45728 | How old? |
45728 | How shall you like living in Chicago? |
45728 | How''d you know? |
45728 | How? |
45728 | How_ do_ young men get a start in places like Macochee? |
45728 | I considered that, and still, it might seem more so if I did n''t, do n''t you see? |
45728 | I mean,Lavinia said correctively,"is n''t he kind of sarcastic?" |
45728 | I suppose you know what I came for? |
45728 | I wonder if that is n''t the young man who visited them summer before last? |
45728 | I''ve loved you ever since that first night-- do you remember? 45728 I?" |
45728 | If you go? |
45728 | In all the essentials they are, are n''t they? |
45728 | Is it really true? |
45728 | Is it too late? |
45728 | Is n''t it a perfect night? |
45728 | Is n''t it all beautiful? |
45728 | Is n''t it wonderful? |
45728 | Is n''t it? |
45728 | Is n''t she well? |
45728 | Is n''t that enough? |
45728 | Is n''t this just the worst place for gossip you ever heard of? |
45728 | Is she gloomy? |
45728 | Is that Blackstone over there on the top shelf? |
45728 | Is that all? |
45728 | Is that all? |
45728 | Is that what they call them? |
45728 | Is that-- all? |
45728 | Is there anything I can do for you? |
45728 | Is there anything wrong in personal injury cases? |
45728 | It should, should n''t it, mama? |
45728 | It sounds just like him when he''s discussing some book none of us has read, does n''t it, Lavinia? |
45728 | It was different with us, was n''t it, dear? |
45728 | It was funny, was n''t it? |
45728 | It''ll be three years before I can be admitted, wo n''t it? |
45728 | It''s warm this afternoon, is n''t it? |
45728 | It''s warm, is n''t it? |
45728 | It_ was_ love at first sight, was n''t it? |
45728 | Lavinia Blair? |
45728 | Leave? |
45728 | May I have a word with you? |
45728 | May I? |
45728 | May be it will be, who knows? |
45728 | Mayme''s home, ai n''t she? |
45728 | My, Lavinia, you do n''t intend to read all that, do you? |
45728 | No, why? |
45728 | Nothing much, only--"Only what? |
45728 | Now what do you think of that? 45728 Of what?" |
45728 | Oh, everybody knows about that,Lawrence replied with a light air that added to Marley''s gloom;"but what of it? |
45728 | Right away? |
45728 | Say, Glenn, what''s the matter with you? |
45728 | Second volume, eh? 45728 See?" |
45728 | Slightly; why? |
45728 | Smoke? |
45728 | So you want my advice, eh? |
45728 | So you''ve been to him, have you? |
45728 | Taking out her curl papers, eh? |
45728 | Tell me, wo n''t you? 45728 That with your influence you might reform him-- out of his liking for you, do n''t you know?" |
45728 | Then how did he get it? |
45728 | Things_ are_ changing in these days, ai n''t they? 45728 Think there''s any sign of rain?" |
45728 | Tonight? 45728 Victorias?" |
45728 | Want to go? 45728 Was n''t it over there?" |
45728 | We would be old? |
45728 | Well, I suppose you know, do n''t you,he said,"that such cases are taken on contingent fees?" |
45728 | Well, Jake, what do you say? |
45728 | Well, Lavinia,said Lawrence, almost as soon as they were seated in the parlor,"what''s the news about Glenn? |
45728 | Well, ca n''t you find a comfortable seat? |
45728 | Well, how are you? |
45728 | Well, it takes time, anyway,said Marley,"and then there''s the practice after that-- how long will that take?" |
45728 | Well, little old Macochee''s good enough for us, eh, Wade? |
45728 | Well, then, what makes you think she is n''t? |
45728 | Well, what do you want? |
45728 | Well, what of it? |
45728 | Well? |
45728 | Well? |
45728 | What about? |
45728 | What are you thinking of? |
45728 | What as? |
45728 | What clerkship was that? |
45728 | What color are they? |
45728 | What could it have been that so distressed her? |
45728 | What did you say? |
45728 | What did you think then? |
45728 | What do you know about this business between Lavinia and that young Marley? |
45728 | What do you mean? |
45728 | What do you think? 45728 What do you want?" |
45728 | What does it mean? |
45728 | What for? |
45728 | What has happened? |
45728 | What is it, Glenn? |
45728 | What is it, sweetheart? |
45728 | What is it? |
45728 | What is it? |
45728 | What is the matter? |
45728 | What is troubling my little girl? |
45728 | What job? |
45728 | What will my hours be? |
45728 | What''d he say? |
45728 | What''s he been doing this time? |
45728 | What''s he? 45728 What''s it to you?" |
45728 | What''s on your mind, young man? |
45728 | What''s that, Lavinia? |
45728 | What''s the matter, in love? |
45728 | What''s the matter? 45728 What''s the matter?" |
45728 | What''s the use of waiting? |
45728 | What, for instance? |
45728 | What? |
45728 | When we picked out our farm-- where was it? |
45728 | When? |
45728 | Where''s Vinie? |
45728 | Who could help it? |
45728 | Who with? |
45728 | Who with? |
45728 | Who''d you understand it from, me or Wade Powell? |
45728 | Why do n''t you play fair? |
45728 | Why do n''t you read that? 45728 Why do n''t you settle it?" |
45728 | Why not? 45728 Why, Glenn, how can you say that? |
45728 | Why, Jack, I did n''t say anything, did I? |
45728 | Why, Lavinia,he cried,"you are n''t homesick?" |
45728 | Why, do n''t you know? 45728 Why, do n''t you see?" |
45728 | Why, surely you have n''t forgotten-- that day out at the fair- grounds, when Mr. Powell introduced me to you? 45728 Why, what did I say that hinted at it, even?" |
45728 | Why? |
45728 | Why? |
45728 | Why? |
45728 | Why? |
45728 | Will he--? |
45728 | Will it? |
45728 | Will you bring out another chair, dear, or would you prefer to go indoors? |
45728 | Will you tell him? |
45728 | Will you? |
45728 | Wo n''t you get your feet wet? |
45728 | Wo n''t you take cold? |
45728 | Would you care? |
45728 | Would you like to keep it? |
45728 | Would you like to think of_ your_ daughter as fickle, and forgetting a young man who was eating his heart out for her far away in a big city? |
45728 | Would you never care to come back if it were not for me? |
45728 | Would you? |
45728 | Y-- es,said Mrs. Marley,"but then--""But then, what?" |
45728 | Yes, I know, but what if he gets the notion he ought to help them by quitting too? |
45728 | Yes, do n''t you know? 45728 Yes,"Miss Winters replied,"almost too warm to dance, do n''t you think?" |
45728 | You ai n''t fretting over that job, are you? |
45728 | You ai n''t sick, are you? |
45728 | You are reading with a preceptor, I take it? |
45728 | You did n''t mention it to her? |
45728 | You do n''t mean to say he connects our names? |
45728 | You do n''t? 45728 You have completed your education?" |
45728 | You have? |
45728 | You have? |
45728 | You have? |
45728 | You know, dear, we can''t--The tears were brimming in her blue eyes, and he left his sentence uncompleted to go on:"So you''re homesick, eh? |
45728 | You said you knew his father, did n''t you? |
45728 | You say you got the idea from something I said out at the fair- grounds? |
45728 | You say you understood you was to have a job under me as chief clerk? |
45728 | You think a great deal of Mr. Weston, do n''t you? |
45728 | You think he''d risk his hide in the army? 45728 You''ll write?" |
45728 | You''re not thinking of getting married, are you, Glenn? |
45728 | Your hours? |
45728 | ''Why?'' |
45728 | A boy who writes like that to his mother--""How did you get to see a letter he wrote his mother?" |
45728 | And does Hank Delphy still go down- town in his shirt- sleeves? |
45728 | And has Charlie Fouly had any fits in the Square lately? |
45728 | And then he asked:"Did he have any money?" |
45728 | And then his fear returned at Lavinia''s sinister,"But--""But what?" |
45728 | And, father, has mother got a girl yet? |
45728 | Are n''t you having a good time? |
45728 | As they approached the veranda, Lawrence''s voice called out of the darkness:"Well, where have you young folks been stealing away to?" |
45728 | As they pulled up and Marley sprang out of the boat to the landing stage, Lawrence said:"Well, where have you babes been?" |
45728 | But after a while the judge spoke:"Did Lavinia go to the picnic with young Marley?" |
45728 | But he blinked a moment, and then cautiously asked:"What about?" |
45728 | But how? |
45728 | But what of Lavinia? |
45728 | By breaking the engagement? |
45728 | By going away quietly, silently, without a word? |
45728 | By keeping her waiting, year after year, until he could find a foothold in the world? |
45728 | CHAPTER XXV LETTERS HOME"How does she seem since he went away?" |
45728 | Can you row?" |
45728 | Carman?" |
45728 | Connie was eating savagely, but she whirled on Chad, speaking with difficulty because her mouth was filled with food:"You shut up, will you?" |
45728 | Did he inherit it?" |
45728 | Did you ask me?" |
45728 | Did you get Foose all right?" |
45728 | Do n''t see the first around anywhere, do you?" |
45728 | Do n''t you care to dance this evening?" |
45728 | Do n''t you feel well?" |
45728 | Do n''t you remember?" |
45728 | Do you see?" |
45728 | Do you think I ca n''t wait anyhow? |
45728 | Do you think I cared for that? |
45728 | Do you think I could n''t have waited? |
45728 | Does Smith Johnson still clap his hands at his dog every evening as he comes home, and does the dog run out to meet him as joyously as of yore? |
45728 | For mama, and Connie?" |
45728 | Has any one got a pitcher concealed about his person? |
45728 | Has it been that long?" |
45728 | Has she heard from him?" |
45728 | Has the young man been here much?" |
45728 | He could not, however, evince an entire approval, and so seeming to desert the subject he hastened on:"What''s your name?" |
45728 | He paused, and then:"Do you use tobacco?" |
45728 | He smoked on a moment, ruminating on his lost youth; then, bringing himself around to business again, he said:"How''d you happen to come to me?" |
45728 | His eyes became small, mere inflamed slits beneath his hairless brows, and he said:"I thought you said you wanted advice?" |
45728 | How am I to begin?" |
45728 | How is Dolly? |
45728 | How long would it be before he could sit there beside her, as her husband? |
45728 | How many years, Marley was thinking, would they have to wait now? |
45728 | How old did you say you were when we were married?" |
45728 | How''s he getting along?" |
45728 | I know-- I know I''m not good enough, but ca n''t you-- can''t I-- love you?" |
45728 | Is n''t our future assured now?" |
45728 | Lavinia admitted that it did sound like Halliday, and Mayme returned to her attack on Lawrence by saying:"What do you know about writing, anyway?" |
45728 | Lawrence?" |
45728 | Marley told him that he had just that summer been graduated and when he mentioned the name of the college Powell said:"The Methodists, eh?" |
45728 | Marley?" |
45728 | Marley?" |
45728 | Ought he to ask her to wait any longer? |
45728 | Presently he inquired, as if by way of getting a basis to start on:"You been to college, ai n''t you?" |
45728 | Raining in London?" |
45728 | Seeming to recognize this he hastened to say:"Well, how''s the world using you, Vinie?" |
45728 | So soon?" |
45728 | Take it to water your horse?" |
45728 | Tell me-- what is it?" |
45728 | The moral environment there is certainly not one for a young man--""Is he really an_ infidel_?" |
45728 | The young man went on with an anxious smile:"This is Judge Blair, I presume? |
45728 | Then he added as if the thought had just come to him:"Say, can you run a typewriter?" |
45728 | Then he said:"''How''d you like to break into newspaper business?'' |
45728 | This afternoon he came around to the office again, and the first thing he said was:"''Did you see your story this morning?'' |
45728 | We''ll do when you ca n''t find anybody else to put up with you, eh?" |
45728 | Well, he had nerve, did n''t he? |
45728 | Weston?" |
45728 | What can I get here in Macochee, I''d like to know?" |
45728 | What did you do with the pitcher, Glenn? |
45728 | What do they do? |
45728 | What do you think of that?" |
45728 | What does anything matter, so long as we have each other?" |
45728 | What does it matter? |
45728 | What does your own mother think of it?" |
45728 | What had you when you proposed to mama? |
45728 | What right had he to ask her to marry him? |
45728 | What right had he to place her in the position he had? |
45728 | What''d you run for?" |
45728 | What''s the matter?" |
45728 | When did you hear it?" |
45728 | When she had done so, she dropped her sewing suddenly into her lap, and looking up, said:"He thinks everything of you, does n''t he?" |
45728 | When they had gone and were strolling toward the Carters'', Lawrence grumbled at Mayme:"What did you want to give it all away to Lavinia for?" |
45728 | When you came into the room, I knew that--""What?" |
45728 | Where are they all going, and how do they get a place to stand on? |
45728 | Who else?" |
45728 | Why ca n''t you?" |
45728 | Why?" |
45728 | Will you?" |
45728 | Would Lavinia be lost with all the rest? |
45728 | Would n''t it make Wade Powell mad to know that? |
45728 | You did n''t leave your music at home, did you?" |
45728 | You do n''t want to keep Lavinia housed up there, away from all the fun that''s going on, do you? |
45728 | he said presently,"this love of ours? |
45728 | he sneered;"so he sympathizes with unionism, does he? |
40449 | A what? |
40449 | And I said,''Doing anything in Unified?'' |
40449 | And did you know anything of another James Southam? |
40449 | And do you know, sir, that is my point of view as well? |
40449 | And have you come all the way to Draper''s Gardens to tell me so? 40449 And how are things in the City?" |
40449 | And how long do you say, sir, he had then been dead? |
40449 | And pray who may Mrs. Lascelles- Trevor be? |
40449 | And the result is to give you that dyspeptic look? 40449 And what was the time, sir, when you arrived?" |
40449 | And yet you almost saw him killed? |
40449 | And you have arrested Mr. Southam-- for what? |
40449 | Are you a policeman? |
40449 | Are you aware that Miss Truscott has promised to be my wife? |
40449 | Are you interested in dogs, Mr. Ely? 40449 Are you interested in questions of millinery?" |
40449 | Are you the James Southam here alluded to? |
40449 | Are you? 40449 Beautiful scenery, is n''t it?" |
40449 | Because you were suspected of having murdered that man? |
40449 | Been here long, sir? |
40449 | Been up Regent Street? |
40449 | Beg pardon, sir, how''s that? |
40449 | Break your plighted word? 40449 But an unhesitating-- a final and decisive yes?" |
40449 | By the way, Mr. Ely, have you been up Regent Street just lately? |
40449 | Can you tell me if there are any nice things in the shop- windows? |
40449 | Change your hotel? 40449 Depends!--depends on what?" |
40449 | Did I not tell you that your course was nearly run? 40449 Did n''t you love him, then?" |
40449 | Did the cat drink all the cream? |
40449 | Did you notice how they are wearing the hats in town? |
40449 | Did you think that? 40449 Do I think that who did what?" |
40449 | Do I understand that you are offering me your congratulations? |
40449 | Do n''t care for love- letters-- as a rule? |
40449 | Do n''t you see, Mr. Ely, that you''re placing me in a delicate position? |
40449 | Do n''t you? 40449 Do with them? |
40449 | Do you call this a question of sentiment? 40449 Do you know Mr. Frederic Ely?" |
40449 | Do you know how long it is since you came to look upon my face? 40449 Do you know that, from my point of view, fair queen, this was worth waiting for?" |
40449 | Do you know this man Summers? |
40449 | Do you know what I have done? 40449 Do you know what happened yesterday?" |
40449 | Do you know what he came for then? |
40449 | Do you know, Mr. Southam, that I have been reading about this dreadful murder case? 40449 Do you mean that you are impecunious?" |
40449 | Do you mean to say, while he was doing all you have described, that he was asleep? |
40449 | Do you mind my looking at the letter? |
40449 | Do you see that? 40449 Do you think I shall marry this man?" |
40449 | Do you think that my husband killed that man? |
40449 | Do you wish me to copy this letter in the same way as the others? |
40449 | Do you wish me to find you one? 40449 Doing anything in Unified?" |
40449 | Eh? 40449 Eleven thirty- five? |
40449 | Excuse me, but can you tell me where Miss Truscott is? |
40449 | For what? 40449 Guardian, what does this mean?" |
40449 | Guardian, would you like to look at the garden? 40449 Hang it, sir; do n''t I tell you that she promised?" |
40449 | Have n''t you? 40449 Have you any relatives of your own name? |
40449 | Have you any relatives of your own name? |
40449 | Have you spoken to her yet? |
40449 | How about that Erie syndicate? |
40449 | How could you do that? |
40449 | How do I know what is in the newspapers? 40449 How do you know my name''s James Southam?" |
40449 | How long did you live there? |
40449 | How long has he been gone? |
40449 | How should I? 40449 How the matter lies? |
40449 | I hope that there really has been no misunderstanding with-- with the lady? |
40449 | I hope, sir, that you are not going? |
40449 | I say, Ash, when do you think the wedding could come off? |
40449 | I say, Ely, what''s the row? |
40449 | I suppose it does n''t matter? |
40449 | I suppose that all you want from me is''Yes''; and that in complete indifference as to whether I like you or do not? |
40449 | I suppose,he said in a whisper to the lady, keeping one eye fixed on Mr. Ely all the time,"I suppose she''ll come?" |
40449 | I wonder if-- if she''s come round to my point of view? 40449 I wonder where she is? |
40449 | I would n''t give a button for the man who had n''t; eh, Ely, what do you say? 40449 If, as you say, you were born and bred in such a place as Dulborough, I presume that you had some knowledge of the inhabitants?'' |
40449 | In a hurry? 40449 In what sort of a position do you think you''re placing me?" |
40449 | In your creed love comes after marriage? |
40449 | Is it a dream? 40449 Is it so black a crime?" |
40449 | Is that the case? |
40449 | Is that what you have come to tell me? 40449 Is the woman me?" |
40449 | Is this the person you were expecting? |
40449 | Is this your present address? |
40449 | It does sound a little that way, does n''t it? |
40449 | It is very kind of you, but do you clearly understand, madam, that you are speaking to a person whose character is under a cloud? |
40449 | It would seem to be, would n''t it? 40449 It''s you again, is it? |
40449 | It''s you? 40449 Lily, are you stark, raving mad? |
40449 | Lily, what is the meaning of all this? |
40449 | Little misunderstanding you call it, do you? 40449 Look here, Ash; when he''s failed, will you consent to Lily being mine?" |
40449 | May I ask what I am to understand by that? |
40449 | May I ask you for an answer to my question? |
40449 | May I ask, Mr. Ely, for an explanation of the language which you use? |
40449 | May I inquire, Mr. Bailey, what you mean? |
40449 | Miss Truscott, wo n''t you turn and look at me? |
40449 | Mr. Ash, may I ask you to protect me from this gentleman? |
40449 | Mr. Southam is your prisoner? 40449 Mrs. Barnes''s compliments, and if you are at liberty, could she speak to you in the private parlour?" |
40449 | Mrs. Clive, may I ask you to withdraw? |
40449 | Mrs. Clive, will you not listen to the all- conquering voice, the voice of love? |
40449 | My dear Mr. Ash, what do you mean? |
40449 | My dear aunt, why are you amazed? |
40449 | No? 40449 No?" |
40449 | Of course you have evidence as to the truth of what you say? |
40449 | Of secretary? |
40449 | Oh, she has told you so much, has she? 40449 One has to come into the country to do what?" |
40449 | Or do you take a wider range, and take a living interest in the burning questions of the progress of revolution and the advance of man? |
40449 | Ought n''t that to be-- Is the woman I? |
40449 | Recent inhabitants of Dulborough? 40449 Right through what?" |
40449 | Shall I give dear Lily a message when you are gone? |
40449 | Shall I tell you what my own opinion of the matter is? |
40449 | Shall you be angry with me, Will? |
40449 | She has what? |
40449 | She say you gave her a little gift, eh? 40449 Stone- broke?" |
40449 | Surely not quite the same? 40449 That is as good a girl as ever lived; you will do justice to her, eh?" |
40449 | That is most gratifying, is n''t it? 40449 That sort of thing''s hardly your line, eh?" |
40449 | The contents of the papers-- what papers? |
40449 | The domestic arrangements? 40449 The other one comes after, eh?" |
40449 | Then what the dickens does she mean? 40449 There again-- who shall define folly? |
40449 | Think so? 40449 To look at him you would n''t think he was engaged, now, would you?" |
40449 | To whom? |
40449 | To write you a letter? 40449 To- morrow, did you? |
40449 | Well, Miss Truscott, am I to be gratified? |
40449 | Well, has Mr. Rothwell been? |
40449 | Well, sir, and what can we do for you? |
40449 | Well? 40449 What are you sitting up for at this hour of the night? |
40449 | What are you talking about? |
40449 | What business have you to ask me such a question? 40449 What can you expect when even the elementary rules of grammar are not there?" |
40449 | What did you say? |
40449 | What do I know about him? 40449 What do you know about the matter?" |
40449 | What do you know of Mrs. Barnes''s husband? |
40449 | What do you mean? |
40449 | What do you mean? |
40449 | What do you mean? |
40449 | What do you mean? |
40449 | What does he look like? |
40449 | What does it matter? 40449 What does n''t matter?" |
40449 | What does she mean by she''s changed her mind? |
40449 | What else do you suppose I want you to be? 40449 What fine day?" |
40449 | What has gone? |
40449 | What has happened?--who has broken the plates? |
40449 | What has that to do with you? |
40449 | What have I done? |
40449 | What have you done? |
40449 | What have you to say for yourself? |
40449 | What information can you possibly expect to receive? |
40449 | What is that upon your hand? |
40449 | What is the matter with you, man? 40449 What is your name?" |
40449 | What man? 40449 What name-- was that-- you said?" |
40449 | What now? |
40449 | What on earth has that to do with me? |
40449 | What promise? |
40449 | What shall I do? 40449 What shall we talk about?" |
40449 | What the dickens do I care if you''ve been in love with her twelve years? 40449 What the dickens do I know about the hats in town?" |
40449 | What the dickens do you mean? |
40449 | What the dickens do you mean? |
40449 | What the dickens do you mean? |
40449 | What the dickens shall I say? 40449 What times?" |
40449 | What was he coming to see you about? |
40449 | What was his name? |
40449 | What was that you said? |
40449 | What you mean-- try some other lay? |
40449 | What young lady? |
40449 | What''s it matter to you? |
40449 | What''s that? |
40449 | What''s that? |
40449 | What, now? 40449 When I love another man?--when my whole heart only beats for him?--when, in a sense which you shall never understand, I am his, and he is mine?" |
40449 | Where did this Mr. Duncan Rothwell live? |
40449 | Where did you get the man? 40449 Where did you steal that letter?" |
40449 | Where have you been living not to have heard of it? 40449 Which of them? |
40449 | Which with you stands higher-- love or honesty? |
40449 | Who do you think that is? |
40449 | Who has made his choice? |
40449 | Who is Duncan Rothwell? 40449 Who is your client?" |
40449 | Who the deuce are you? |
40449 | Who the devil are you? |
40449 | Who''s done nothing wrong? |
40449 | Who''s there? |
40449 | Why did you ever go? 40449 Why do you ask?" |
40449 | Why do you make to me such a proposition? 40449 Why do you want me? |
40449 | Why have you been so long? |
40449 | Why not? 40449 Why should you think that?" |
40449 | Why, what can he say? 40449 Why? |
40449 | Why? 40449 Will what?" |
40449 | Will you be my wife? |
40449 | Willy, do n''t you know my aunt? |
40449 | Wo n''t she? 40449 Would you have me marry you-- now?" |
40449 | Would you like to fill the post of secretary? |
40449 | Would you treat me as an old woman, then? |
40449 | You allude to the recent unfortunate occurrence, sir? 40449 You are not a policeman, or a detective, or a private inquiry agent, or anything of that kind-- you swear it?" |
40449 | You are quite sure, Mrs. Barnes, that you also were not fast asleep? |
40449 | You are telling me the truth? |
40449 | You did not kiss her, eh? 40449 You have-- what?" |
40449 | You mean that you will be my wife? 40449 You mean----?" |
40449 | You never asked her to marry you? |
40449 | You never gave her to understand that you wished her for your wife, eh? |
40449 | You said,''I want you''? |
40449 | You seem very fond of reading? |
40449 | You think my hand is gloved? 40449 You want a what?" |
40449 | You''ve done what? |
40449 | ''And Shall Trelawney Die?'' |
40449 | ( Did anybody ever hear the like of that? |
40449 | ( I wonder if she says anything about her being ill?) |
40449 | ( It is as well that the explanation follows immediately after, or echo would have answered''Why?'') |
40449 | ( Oh, has she? |
40449 | ( What passed between us yesterday-- what''s she mean? |
40449 | ( What-- what the blazes does she mean?) |
40449 | About what? |
40449 | All six?" |
40449 | Am I justified in supposing that you are starting on your honeymoon?" |
40449 | Am I not a mother, then?" |
40449 | And Mrs. Clive? |
40449 | And do you think I''ve a selection on view here?" |
40449 | And he went on--"I pray you tell me-- do you love me?" |
40449 | And now, pray, what is it that you mean to do?" |
40449 | And the signature-- where is it? |
40449 | And was n''t it worth it all for the sake of the reconciliation at the end?" |
40449 | And what do you know of him?" |
40449 | And what does Mrs. Lascelles- Trevor want with me?" |
40449 | And when do you say that you discovered this man on the floor?" |
40449 | And where are all my dreams of love? |
40449 | And where do you suppose that I shall be?" |
40449 | And where have you been this great, long time? |
40449 | And where the other fellow is? |
40449 | And who is Willy, pray?" |
40449 | And whom, for her sweet sake and Pompey''s, I love too?" |
40449 | And why did she apparently not dare to allow her eyes to rest, even for a moment, on my face? |
40449 | Anything settled about the date? |
40449 | Are n''t you well?" |
40449 | Are you aware that it is not four- and- twenty hours since you promised Mr. Frederic Ely to be his wife?" |
40449 | Are you stark mad?" |
40449 | Are you suggesting that with him Friday was some sort of anniversary?" |
40449 | Are you sure the letter comes from her?" |
40449 | As we do agree now, wo n''t you take my hand?" |
40449 | Barnes?" |
40449 | Barnes?" |
40449 | Because you have broken Pompey''s leg? |
40449 | Been induced to lend his aged mother half a crown? |
40449 | Before I did?" |
40449 | But may I ask what that has to do with me?" |
40449 | But what especial evil have I done?" |
40449 | But what''s the matter? |
40449 | But when they reached Waterloo Mr. Rosenbaum remarked--"Well, my friend, what is it to be? |
40449 | CHAPTER VI THE WOMAN WITH ONE HAND"Mrs. Lascelles- Trevor''s compliments, sir, and would you mind stepping upstairs?" |
40449 | Can we not compromise the case, we principals? |
40449 | Can you not guess?" |
40449 | Clive?" |
40449 | Could the man be such a consummate actor? |
40449 | Could you so divide the family? |
40449 | Did n''t you see I did when I met him here the other day?" |
40449 | Did you quarrel with him? |
40449 | Do I know the lady?" |
40449 | Do n''t I say it plain enough? |
40449 | Do n''t you feel funny? |
40449 | Do n''t you know me, Pompey?" |
40449 | Do n''t you know that there is a language more eloquent than speech? |
40449 | Do you consider that a justification to the scoundrel who betrays another fellow''s wife?" |
40449 | Do you know I paid twenty pounds for that? |
40449 | Do you know I spent twenty pounds on an engagement- ring?" |
40449 | Do you know all about it, then?" |
40449 | Do you know that his mother once ate nearly the whole of a pair of my old shoes?" |
40449 | Do you think I buy engagement- rings to sell them at a profit, then?" |
40449 | Do you think I should buy engagement- rings if I was n''t sure that it was clear? |
40449 | Do you think he did it?" |
40449 | Do you think it is his ribs?" |
40449 | Do you think that in such a matter it is possible for a woman to change her mind?" |
40449 | Do you want to drive me mad? |
40449 | Does she mean all that to you?" |
40449 | Does your conscience not reproach you, sir? |
40449 | Ely, what do you think? |
40449 | Ely?" |
40449 | Ely?" |
40449 | Excuse one stranger speaking to another, but could you tell me where Miss Truscott is?" |
40449 | First, is Mr. Duncan Rothwell the name of the client for whom you have been acting?" |
40449 | For instance, once when the train stopped at a station--"This is Rowland''s Castle, is n''t it?" |
40449 | For we are agreed, are we not?" |
40449 | For who shall know you and not love you as his life? |
40449 | From her? |
40449 | Griffith of Tokenhouse Yard is your solicitor-- not so?" |
40449 | Had I not done him an injustice after all? |
40449 | Has Mr. Rothwell been to see you?" |
40449 | Has any one calling himself Duncan Rothwell been to see you?" |
40449 | Have you forgotten Pompey, sir? |
40449 | Have you forgotten what happened yesterday? |
40449 | How are you, dear old man?" |
40449 | How can a man expect a girl to love him if she do n''t believe that he loves her? |
40449 | How can a man make himself agreeable to a woman when there''s a dog ready to bite his nose off sitting on her knee? |
40449 | How did you come to know that my name was James Southam?" |
40449 | I hope I have n''t interrupted you?" |
40449 | I say, Ely, why do n''t you go in for something in this line?" |
40449 | I suppose it is the Juggernaut of commerce which has kept you so long away?" |
40449 | I understood you to say that she was going to marry you?" |
40449 | I wonder how much Mr. Summers intends to pay?" |
40449 | I wonder if he knows what sort of a ward he''s got? |
40449 | If I let you get up, can I trust you?" |
40449 | If you were? |
40449 | In asking me to be your wife, you are not asking for-- love?" |
40449 | Instead of whom?" |
40449 | Is he the client for whom you are acting?" |
40449 | Is it a dream?" |
40449 | Is it you?" |
40449 | Is n''t it good enough?" |
40449 | Is n''t that a funny man?" |
40449 | Is she going to be my wife or yours?" |
40449 | Is that all? |
40449 | Is that quite fair? |
40449 | Is that true?" |
40449 | Is the girl stark mad? |
40449 | Is the young lady a friend of yours?" |
40449 | Is there anything funny about the looks of a man when he''s engaged?" |
40449 | It does sound incredible, does n''t it? |
40449 | It was from Miss Truscott, as sure as fate: the first letter from his love? |
40449 | Lascelles- Trevor?" |
40449 | May I ask if you can tell me where I am likely to find Miss Truscott?" |
40449 | May I ask if you think that the lady''s is unnecessary too?" |
40449 | May I ask when you made what I must call this surreptitious request to my ward for her hand?" |
40449 | Not flattering to her, eh?" |
40449 | Now did you-- did you ever hear anything like that? |
40449 | Now, what shall I say?) |
40449 | Of what? |
40449 | On what?" |
40449 | Or is it something more tangible than love?" |
40449 | Sir, do you think that''he''did it?" |
40449 | Supposing he should die? |
40449 | Surely he did not say that all his life was centred in his love for me?" |
40449 | Tell me, sir, has any one calling himself Duncan Rothwell been to see you? |
40449 | That it is possible for a man and woman to understand each other perfectly and yet not interchange a word? |
40449 | That so?" |
40449 | The old lady turned to her niece--"My dear Lily, what have I said or done?" |
40449 | Then he put to me a question:"Do you mean to say that nothing has been found out to show who did it?" |
40449 | Want to exhibit a little valour on the cheap?" |
40449 | Was he the man?" |
40449 | Was not Mr. Ely looking on? |
40449 | Was she at it again? |
40449 | Well, aunty, what do you think of that?" |
40449 | Well, what do you say to twelve months, my boy?" |
40449 | What Southam was it you knew?" |
40449 | What brings you two thieves in here? |
40449 | What did I tell him? |
40449 | What did you say?" |
40449 | What do you know about him? |
40449 | What do you mean? |
40449 | What do you mean?" |
40449 | What do you mean?" |
40449 | What do you mean?" |
40449 | What do you suppose that he will say to that?" |
40449 | What does my being a man of fortune mean? |
40449 | What does that sale mean? |
40449 | What does the fool want here? |
40449 | What harm is there in that? |
40449 | What has Mrs. Barnes''s husband to do with you-- or with me? |
40449 | What has happened? |
40449 | What has she told you more?" |
40449 | What is his name? |
40449 | What is it you have done? |
40449 | What is it you want with me?" |
40449 | What is that?" |
40449 | What is the matter now?" |
40449 | What name was that you said? |
40449 | What papers?" |
40449 | What passed between you on the river that fine day?" |
40449 | What she is she owes to you? |
40449 | What the devil brings you here?" |
40449 | What the devil do you mean?" |
40449 | What the dickens do you mean by saying that the woman who has promised to be my wife loves you?" |
40449 | What the dickens, sir, do you mean by calling me your friend?" |
40449 | What time is it? |
40449 | What took place between you in the coffee- room?" |
40449 | What was I to do? |
40449 | What was I to think? |
40449 | What was a letter from Duncan Rothwell doing among Mrs. Lascelles- Trevor''s papers? |
40449 | What was any one to think? |
40449 | What was the matter with the woman? |
40449 | What was the scoundrel''s name?" |
40449 | What will our future mothers be?" |
40449 | What''s the matter now?" |
40449 | What''s the matter with him, Ash? |
40449 | What''s the matter, Ash? |
40449 | What''s this?" |
40449 | What''s up now? |
40449 | What-- what''s that?" |
40449 | Whatever brings you here?" |
40449 | Whatever is there wrong?" |
40449 | When is it to be?" |
40449 | When is there a train?" |
40449 | When you have ruined Mrs. Jones do you put a similar inquiry to Jones? |
40449 | Where are you off to?" |
40449 | Where has he gone, and why? |
40449 | Who are you? |
40449 | Who should know her if not I? |
40449 | Who was it, a man or a woman?" |
40449 | Who was my dearest Amelia? |
40449 | Who was right about the little misunderstanding, now? |
40449 | Who would have thought of seeing you? |
40449 | Who, then, are you?" |
40449 | Who?" |
40449 | Why are you surprised? |
40449 | Why had she chosen this eccentric method of conveying to me such an enigmatic message? |
40449 | Why should all the plunder go into the lawyer''s hands? |
40449 | Why should n''t it be Miss Truscott, Ash? |
40449 | Why should n''t it be Miss Truscott, Ash?" |
40449 | Why? |
40449 | Why? |
40449 | Will you allow me to ask if you are still seeking employment? |
40449 | Will you become my secretary? |
40449 | Will you forgive me my presumption in that I thought that I had won the prize?" |
40449 | Will you name the day?" |
40449 | Will you relieve my impotence? |
40449 | Will you write one for me now?" |
40449 | Wo n''t some one else do as well?" |
40449 | Wo n''t the morning do? |
40449 | Would it have been honest for her to have married you when she loved me?" |
40449 | Would you have me break my plighted word?" |
40449 | Would you marry a woman who frankly tells you that she loathes you, and that she yearns for another man?" |
40449 | Yet, sweet, why not? |
40449 | You are sure you''re listening?" |
40449 | You did not kiss her that fine day?" |
40449 | You have taught her what you yourself learnt at your mother''s knee? |
40449 | You know Rosenbaum?" |
40449 | You tell me, straight out, what it is you want with me-- do you hear?" |
40449 | You understand? |
40449 | You would not have us waste its sweetness?" |
40449 | You''re not even making a pretence of loving me?" |
40449 | You''ve got a time- table, have n''t you? |
40449 | what do you mean? |
40449 | what do you mean?" |
40449 | what have I done? |
40449 | what the teffel is it brings you?" |
40449 | why have you been false? |
21635 | A beauty? 21635 A- are you?" |
21635 | Ah, roused your curiosity, did I? 21635 Am I all right? |
21635 | And do n''t you? |
21635 | And if it comes back? |
21635 | And you''ll do us a favor and be nice to Duckie, wo n''t you? 21635 And you''re very much in favor of it, are n''t you, Connie precious?" |
21635 | Are Jerry and Prudence having domestic difficulties? 21635 Are boys always like that father?" |
21635 | Are n''t we getting sensible? |
21635 | Are n''t we lazy to- day? |
21635 | Are there any holes in these stockings? |
21635 | Are they gone? |
21635 | Are you doing another napkin? 21635 Are you fond of Jim, Carol?" |
21635 | Are you going out again? |
21635 | Are you going to tell Connie? |
21635 | Are you going to wait until he asks you? |
21635 | Are you nearly tired to death? |
21635 | Are you scared, Lark? |
21635 | Are you still sure it is Gene? |
21635 | Are you sure it''s measles, Aunt Grace? |
21635 | Are you? |
21635 | Are-- are we late for dinner? |
21635 | As usual? |
21635 | At Forrests''? |
21635 | But I ca n''t help it, can I? 21635 But does n''t it seem foolish to go clear through college, and spend the money, and then-- marry without using the education?" |
21635 | But how on earth do they know? |
21635 | But however did you do it? |
21635 | But what for? 21635 But what''s the idea? |
21635 | But what''s the idea? |
21635 | But what''s the object? |
21635 | But where have you had it? |
21635 | But wo n''t she dislike me if I do? |
21635 | But, Professor,she argued,"ca n''t people do good without preaching? |
21635 | But-- twins, do you think-- minister''s daughters ought to read-- things like that? |
21635 | Ca n''t you drop that everlasting hemstitching, embroidering, tatting, crocheting, for ten minutes to talk to me? 21635 Ca n''t you see the poor thing is just tired to death? |
21635 | Ca n''t you write to me a little oftener, Carol? 21635 Call me David, wo n''t you, Carol? |
21635 | Can you write? |
21635 | Carol, did you curl your hair? |
21635 | Carol,he said,"my little song- bird,"--and he laughed, but very tenderly,"would you like to know how to make me say what you know I want to say?" |
21635 | Connie, run out to the barn and bring my hat, will you? 21635 Connie?" |
21635 | Connie? |
21635 | D- do you? |
21635 | Did I rub the powder all off? |
21635 | Did I say that? |
21635 | Did any of the others know about the fruit? |
21635 | Did he find his incarceration trying? |
21635 | Did he? 21635 Did it hurt, Carol? |
21635 | Did n''t Prudence teach us to love everybody? |
21635 | Did n''t they look sorry? 21635 Did she get you out of a scrape?" |
21635 | Did the veil come? |
21635 | Did they ask us to stay a whole week, auntie? |
21635 | Did they tell you all about it? |
21635 | Did you ever send''em off? |
21635 | Did you get the story back? |
21635 | Did you have a pleasant visit? |
21635 | Did you see them? |
21635 | Did you want me to say it, dearest? 21635 Do n''t we know everybody does it? |
21635 | Do n''t we love her better than anybody on earth,--except ourselves? |
21635 | Do n''t you remember how Prudence gasped? 21635 Do n''t you think it is a glorious idea, Connie?" |
21635 | Do you care how soon I get married? |
21635 | Do you love me? |
21635 | Do you think he''s crazy about you, Carol? |
21635 | Do you think she''ll ever make it? |
21635 | Do you think this suit will convince Grace that I am worth taking care of? 21635 Do you want to break men''s hearts?" |
21635 | Do you want to? |
21635 | Does Prudence know it? |
21635 | Does n''t that sound exactly like a book, now? |
21635 | Fairy wants to know if you are getting stage fright, Lark? 21635 Father,"she said,"would you be very sorry if I did n''t teach school after all?" |
21635 | Get her a drink, ca n''t you, Connie? |
21635 | Good guess, was n''t it? |
21635 | Good morning, Carrie, how are you this morning? |
21635 | Goodness, Prue, are n''t you going to do anything but eat after you move to Des Moines? 21635 Had a sunstroke?" |
21635 | Have n''t any? 21635 Have n''t we been a parsonage bunch long enough to be tickled to death to be sent any place?" |
21635 | He''s here.--''Aunt Lark, may I have a cooky?'' |
21635 | How about it? 21635 How did it happen?" |
21635 | How do I look? |
21635 | How is it? |
21635 | How is your mother, Jim? |
21635 | How long? |
21635 | How many times did you read it? |
21635 | How should I know? |
21635 | I am very busy with my work, so you will understand if my letters come less frequently, wo n''t you? 21635 I do n''t get everything I want, do I?" |
21635 | I sure do know,he said fervently,"did n''t I have to do a speech at the commencement exercises? |
21635 | I-- well, I made you say it, did n''t I? |
21635 | Is Carol sick, Grace? |
21635 | Is Prudence all right? |
21635 | Is he nice? |
21635 | Is it a doctor book? |
21635 | Is it all settled? |
21635 | Is it any good? |
21635 | Is n''t everything wonderful, father? |
21635 | Is n''t it lovely? |
21635 | Is n''t it-- awful? 21635 Is n''t she a beauty?" |
21635 | Is n''t the house still? |
21635 | Is she all right? |
21635 | Is that what makes you so-- so shiny, and smiley, and starry all the time? |
21635 | It does look nice, does n''t it? 21635 It does smell good, does n''t it? |
21635 | It''s so hard to talk when there''s a roomful, is n''t it? 21635 Jerry looked awfully handsome, did n''t he? |
21635 | Jerry-- what? |
21635 | Jim Forrest,she demanded,"is it Lark you want to marry, or me?" |
21635 | Lark,he began hurriedly,"do you know the Dalys? |
21635 | Let me have it, wo n''t you? 21635 Let''s cut and run, will you?" |
21635 | Let''s go and take a walk, sha n''t we, Carol? 21635 Like it? |
21635 | Look here, Fairy,he began,"what''s the joke? |
21635 | Look out, Connie, do you want to break part of my daughter off the first thing? 21635 May I speak to one of the twins?" |
21635 | Me? 21635 Mind? |
21635 | My mind? 21635 No?" |
21635 | Now what''ll we do? 21635 Now, what shall I do?" |
21635 | Of whom were you thinking, Carol? |
21635 | Oh, William,she sighed,"ca n''t you remember that you are a Methodist minister, and a grandfather, and-- grow up a little?" |
21635 | Oh, ca n''t I? 21635 Oh, girls,"she whimpered,"is n''t it awful? |
21635 | Oh, is n''t it a glorious morning? |
21635 | Oh, is that it? |
21635 | Oh, why do they,--what makes men like that? 21635 Oh,"she breathed,"oh, is n''t the parsonage lovely, Carol? |
21635 | Poetry? 21635 Pretty good,--eh, what?" |
21635 | Prudence, and Fairy,--it was pretty cute of Fairy, was n''t it? |
21635 | Remember that last quarter we borrowed of you? 21635 Run along,"he said,"but do n''t be gone long, will you? |
21635 | Say, Prue, knock me down and sit on me, will you? 21635 Shall we flip a coin to see who I get in front?" |
21635 | Shall we have Alice or Katie? 21635 Since then?" |
21635 | Stay in-- What? |
21635 | Stick a pin in it, will you? 21635 Teaching you things, are they?" |
21635 | Tell Aunt Grace, will you? 21635 The question is, will we be proud of you after the concert?" |
21635 | Then why did you go up in the attic and cry all morning when Prudence was fixing the room for her? |
21635 | Then you have n''t set your heart on my teaching? |
21635 | Then you would object if he had dates? |
21635 | Then, in common vernacular, though it is really beneath us, what''s up? |
21635 | Think so? 21635 Trying to be a blank verse, Fairy? |
21635 | Twins,he said, without preamble,"what do you want more than anything else?" |
21635 | Was it a nice conference? |
21635 | Was it any good? |
21635 | Was n''t it a dandy day? |
21635 | We can use him to make Jim Forrest jealous if he does n''t ask for that date? |
21635 | Well, I''m sorry, I wo n''t have time to change them.--Did they come in the auto? 21635 Well, shall we have her come?" |
21635 | Well, she ca n''t get married without Carol, can she? |
21635 | Well, would you like to try your hand out with me? |
21635 | Well? |
21635 | What are you going to do this summer, Lark? |
21635 | What are you reading that for? |
21635 | What are you reading, Con? |
21635 | What are you reading? |
21635 | What city? |
21635 | What did you do with them when they came back? |
21635 | What did you do? |
21635 | What difference does that make? 21635 What difference does that make?" |
21635 | What do you call it, Carol,''sowing seeds of kindness''? |
21635 | What do you think about it, Aunt Grace? |
21635 | What do you think about it, Connie? 21635 What do you think of, it?" |
21635 | What do you want it for? |
21635 | What do you want? |
21635 | What does Carol think about it? |
21635 | What else did she tell you? |
21635 | What for? |
21635 | What for? |
21635 | What happened? |
21635 | What have they been doing? |
21635 | What in the world is it? |
21635 | What in the world? |
21635 | What indeed? |
21635 | What is he saying now? |
21635 | What is it? |
21635 | What is the joke? |
21635 | What is the matter, Prue? 21635 What kind of slave- drivers do you think we are?" |
21635 | What made her back down like that? |
21635 | What makes you think you can write, Con? |
21635 | What on earth are you doing? |
21635 | What shall we do now? |
21635 | What would you advise, Lark? |
21635 | What''s gone, Carrie? |
21635 | What''s gone? 21635 What''s the matter with you?" |
21635 | What''s the matter? |
21635 | What''s the matter? |
21635 | What''s the matter? |
21635 | What''s the poem? |
21635 | What''s the sense in it? 21635 What''s up?" |
21635 | What''s up? |
21635 | What''s your father for? |
21635 | What? |
21635 | What? |
21635 | Whatever do you suppose is the matter? |
21635 | Where are the girls? |
21635 | Where are the twins? |
21635 | Where are the twins? |
21635 | Where are we going? |
21635 | Where are you going? |
21635 | Where are you going? |
21635 | Where did you get the money for that basket of fruit? |
21635 | Where did you look? |
21635 | Where in the world have you been all day? 21635 Where is she sick?" |
21635 | Where now? |
21635 | Where''d you get that dime, Connie? |
21635 | Where''s papa? |
21635 | Where''s the criminal? |
21635 | Who next? |
21635 | Who says fizzle? |
21635 | Who won? |
21635 | Who''s haunted? |
21635 | Who, me? 21635 Why did n''t you let me look it over, Connie?" |
21635 | Why do n''t you lie down and let Lark use you for a footstool, Carol? |
21635 | Why on earth did n''t you say so in the first place? |
21635 | Why should n''t I think so? 21635 Why, did n''t you catch on to that? |
21635 | Why, we sent it out, and--"Just once? |
21635 | Why? 21635 Will you buy the rest of us some silk stockings?" |
21635 | Will you come and button me up? 21635 Will you keep it hidden? |
21635 | Will you kindly get back to your seat, young lady, and not interfere with my thoughts? |
21635 | Will you listen to that? |
21635 | Will you run out to the kitchen and bring me a bowl of soup, my child? |
21635 | William,she said gently,"what''s the matter with you lately? |
21635 | Wo n''t I drink any more? |
21635 | Wo n''t believe it? 21635 Would n''t Connie scream if she could hear that? |
21635 | Write it up? |
21635 | Yes, infant, who cheated, and how, and why? 21635 Yes, is n''t it?" |
21635 | Yes, tall fellow with black hair and eyes, was n''t he? 21635 Yes,--didn''t you know it?" |
21635 | Yesterday? 21635 You are n''t thinking of turning Christian Scientists, yourselves, are you?" |
21635 | You ca n''t tell me? |
21635 | You do n''t mean that Christian Science book, do you? 21635 You do n''t think I''m too young?" |
21635 | You do n''t think there''s any danger of her falling in love with the wrong man? |
21635 | You have known it a long time, have n''t you? 21635 You know, auntie darling--""Now, Carol, do n''t you suggest anything--""Oh, no indeed, dearest, how could you think of such a thing?" |
21635 | You understand, do n''t you, father, that I''m just going to be plain married when the time comes? 21635 You would n''t want Prue to stick around and be an old maid, would you? |
21635 | You''re not going? |
21635 | You-- are? |
21635 | You-- you? |
21635 | _ Scianceanelth._"What? |
21635 | _ Science and Health_? 21635 _ The Rubaiyat?_ By Khayyam? |
21635 | _ The Rubaiyat?_ By Khayyam? 21635 And I think I would be justified in objecting if he deliberately made occasions for himself, do n''t you? |
21635 | And Lark would answer,"Dandy!--Have you read this?" |
21635 | And have n''t I the best complexion in Mount Mark? |
21635 | And in reply to the first Jim always answered,"That''s a shame,--why did n''t you remember me and hold off?" |
21635 | And what could Connie do? |
21635 | And what on earth was she laughing at?" |
21635 | And whence the startling array of pennies? |
21635 | And why this unwonted affection for the heathen?" |
21635 | And-- if I pick the cherries on the little tree, will you make a pie for dinner?" |
21635 | Any objections?" |
21635 | Are n''t men funny? |
21635 | Are there any lemons, auntie? |
21635 | Are we square? |
21635 | Are we-- are we-- well, anyhow, what business has a minister''s daughter reading trash like this?" |
21635 | Are you feeling well?'' |
21635 | Are you getting me?" |
21635 | Are you intending to carpet your floors with it?" |
21635 | Are you out of your head?" |
21635 | Are you trying to run me out of my job? |
21635 | Are you trying to throw yourself into the old school- teacher''s pocketbook, or what?" |
21635 | Are your fingers itching to get hold of that four thousand a year the twins are eternally bragging about? |
21635 | At least, you did n''t write, did you?" |
21635 | At times Carol pointed to a line, and said in a low voice,"That''s good, is n''t it?" |
21635 | Aunt Grace, will you put the iron on for me? |
21635 | Babbie''s nice, and dear, and all that, and he''s so crazy about you, and-- do you love him?" |
21635 | Back already?" |
21635 | But I did n''t finish my news, did I? |
21635 | But I do believe it was God who said,''What''s your father for?'' |
21635 | But I wonder if they ever do? |
21635 | But have n''t I got to answer the call?" |
21635 | But she lingered effectively, whispering softly:"Shall I lower the window, madame? |
21635 | But they have to call it something, have n''t they? |
21635 | But you can finish him off, ca n''t you? |
21635 | But-- are they all alike, Professor?" |
21635 | CHAPTER XII SOWING SEEDS"Have you seen Mrs. Harbert lately, Carol?" |
21635 | Ca n''t I go and tell Connie and Lark? |
21635 | Ca n''t I have a good time in my own way without the whole church pedaling me from door to door?" |
21635 | Ca n''t you see we''re listening?" |
21635 | Ca n''t you try to make it pleasant for him this week? |
21635 | Can you take the responsibility of rearing a family that knows trouble only? |
21635 | Can you trust me with the cherries?" |
21635 | Carol adjusted the invalid auntie''s shawl once more, and was ready to go to the kitchen when a quiet:"Wo n''t Miss Carol sit down with us?" |
21635 | Carol giggled softly to herself a few times, and Lark opened one eye, asking,"What''s amatter?" |
21635 | Come in with me, wo n''t you, Larkie?" |
21635 | Did it come?" |
21635 | Did n''t he tell us to create a good impression? |
21635 | Did n''t you get a new gray suit? |
21635 | Did something bite you?" |
21635 | Did you have any luncheon? |
21635 | Did you notice how he glowed at Prudence? |
21635 | Did you pack any clean handkerchiefs, auntie? |
21635 | Did you put that dime in the bank?" |
21635 | Dignity? |
21635 | Do I look literary? |
21635 | Do I look twenty- five dollars better than I did yesterday?" |
21635 | Do my letters sound all right? |
21635 | Do n''t all the men want to propose to a complexion like mine?" |
21635 | Do n''t you remember what I told you? |
21635 | Do n''t you remember, Lark, I said my head ached?" |
21635 | Do n''t you see? |
21635 | Do you dare cast in your fortunes with a parsonage bunch that revels in misfortune? |
21635 | Do you get that?" |
21635 | Do you have to enclose enough to bring them back? |
21635 | Do you mean a live one? |
21635 | Do you suppose he was kidnaping her?" |
21635 | Do you think she looks like me?" |
21635 | Do you think she''ll have me?" |
21635 | Do you think we''re all wooden Indians? |
21635 | Duke?" |
21635 | Go on, daddy, who''s to be our next flock?" |
21635 | Had the long and dearly desired war been declared at last? |
21635 | Had they hired the awful Slaughterers to bring this disgrace upon the parsonage? |
21635 | Has father gone out?" |
21635 | Have n''t we any ideals? |
21635 | Have n''t we any standards? |
21635 | Have n''t you noticed how sweet and sunny and dear the twins have been lately? |
21635 | Have the boys come?" |
21635 | Have you been waiting, too? |
21635 | He had not spoken, but something certainly had asked,"What''s your father for?" |
21635 | He is coming, is n''t he?" |
21635 | He_ is_ nice, is n''t he? |
21635 | Hedges?" |
21635 | Her"Good morning,--isn''t this glorious weather?" |
21635 | Here, auntie, pin it over for me, will you? |
21635 | Here, grandpa, what do you think of this? |
21635 | Honestly, Jerry, is it Fairy? |
21635 | Honestly? |
21635 | How about it? |
21635 | How about the letters, Carol? |
21635 | How can I know whether it''s trash or not, unless I read it? |
21635 | How can I?--How did I know?--What on earth,--Oh, Carol whatever made you smile at them?" |
21635 | How did you get it all out in one breath?" |
21635 | I certainly did n''t say it was I, did I? |
21635 | I do enjoy a good correspondence with--""Do you?" |
21635 | I do n''t know that I could do much better, do you, auntie? |
21635 | I do n''t suppose we''ll need to take any money, auntie, do you? |
21635 | I know there is n''t a girl like her in ten thousand, but-- she''s the one I want, and-- Carol, do you reckon there is any chance for me? |
21635 | I mean if he proposes to you, are you going to turn him down, or not?" |
21635 | I mean, are n''t you ahead of yourself? |
21635 | I thought there was something wrong, and--""Sort of mentally unbalanced, is that it? |
21635 | I''ve never told even Lark-- Well, one night, when I was a sophomore,--do you remember Bud Garvin?" |
21635 | If you want to marry Lark, what in the world are you out here proposing to me for?" |
21635 | Is Joe there? |
21635 | Is he coming to- night?" |
21635 | Is he here?" |
21635 | Is it too cool? |
21635 | Is it very nice?" |
21635 | Is it-- that? |
21635 | Is n''t Aunt Grace here on purpose to chaperon him and keep the ladies off? |
21635 | Is n''t it a lovely day? |
21635 | Is n''t it a shame?" |
21635 | Is n''t life serious?" |
21635 | Is n''t she sick? |
21635 | Is n''t that a family gift?" |
21635 | Is that Jim Forrest with them? |
21635 | Is that proper?" |
21635 | Is there anything on your mind?" |
21635 | It was just the flannel, was it? |
21635 | It''s Connie all right, is n''t it? |
21635 | It''s a big mistake.--What on earth are the twins doing out there? |
21635 | Just wait till I powder my nose, will you? |
21635 | Lark does n''t have secrets from you, does she? |
21635 | Lark,--where did you put that ripping knife? |
21635 | Later in the day Prudence drew her aunt to one side and asked softly,"Was it much of a shock to you, Aunt Grace? |
21635 | Let''s go out to the creek for a stroll ourselves, shall we? |
21635 | Look on Him, believe in Him, worship Him, and in His name you stand O. K.''See? |
21635 | May I bring a few pieces along?'' |
21635 | Mercy, father, does n''t the conference furnish the elders with houses? |
21635 | Miss Starr?" |
21635 | Now I think, Aunt Grace, lovely, it would be nice for you to wear your lavender lace gown, and look delicate, do n''t you? |
21635 | Now we understand each other, do n''t we?" |
21635 | Now what shall I do?" |
21635 | Now you wo n''t give me away, will you? |
21635 | Now, what?" |
21635 | Oh, dear Mrs. Forrest, whatever in the world made you think that?" |
21635 | Oh, why had n''t he wired? |
21635 | On Elm Street?" |
21635 | One evening at the dinner table Fairy said, with a mocking smile,"How are your Slaughter- house friends to- day, Carol? |
21635 | P''fesser is not appropriate any more, is it?" |
21635 | Papa, whatever shall we do? |
21635 | Papa,--why do n''t you do something?" |
21635 | Pretty fair boost for a struggling young author, do n''t you think? |
21635 | Remember him? |
21635 | Say, Fairy, you''ll be nice to Duckie, wo n''t you? |
21635 | See here, do you mean to say you are making fun of Fairy Harmer? |
21635 | See? |
21635 | See? |
21635 | Seven- six- two? |
21635 | Shall I put your purse in my pocket? |
21635 | Shall I tell you?" |
21635 | She got most of our spending money for a good many years, did n''t she?" |
21635 | That will be stagey, wo n''t it? |
21635 | That''s not what you twins are devouring so ravenously, is it?" |
21635 | The Starrs, therefore, would be transferred, and where? |
21635 | The family drowned in soot to welcome you? |
21635 | The girls stood stock- still and gazed at him, and then, with a violent struggle for self- composure Carol asked:"Did you get any of it in advance? |
21635 | The nearest twin was summoned, and then he asked:"Have you twins got dates for the ball game?" |
21635 | Then as he came slowly down the stairs, she said to her sisters again, anxiously:"Oh, girls, do keep nice and clean, wo n''t you? |
21635 | There now, there now, baby, was she her daddy''s little girl?" |
21635 | There''s father-- now, he never cared to kiss the girls even in his bad and balmy days, did you, daddy? |
21635 | These fellows that break themselves--""Break themselves?" |
21635 | Think it''s old age?" |
21635 | Think you can manage a little oftener?" |
21635 | This is the sixteenth dozen, is n''t it? |
21635 | This spot on my thumb is fried egg, here are three doughnuts on my arm,--see them? |
21635 | Was it a bitter disappointment?" |
21635 | Was it a masterpiece, Connie?" |
21635 | Was it a trick between her and Fairy? |
21635 | Was n''t it dear of the Ladies''Aid to give you that dress for your birthday? |
21635 | Was the conference good? |
21635 | Was there any mail to- day?" |
21635 | Was yours?" |
21635 | We were playing with George Castle and Fritzie Zale.--Is it sticking out any place?" |
21635 | We''ll take any kind of punishment, but keep it dark, wo n''t you? |
21635 | Well, what do you know about that?" |
21635 | What are you going to do with it now?" |
21635 | What are you talking about?" |
21635 | What business had he on the ice when he had a date--""Ready?" |
21635 | What do you reckon I came down here for? |
21635 | What do you think about it?" |
21635 | What for? |
21635 | What happened? |
21635 | What in the world are you going to do with it all, anyhow? |
21635 | What in the world did she mean? |
21635 | What kind of poetry? |
21635 | What shall I call you now? |
21635 | What was it you tried to do for me?" |
21635 | What would Prudence say?" |
21635 | What''ll we tell the professor?" |
21635 | What''s the joke now?" |
21635 | What''s the object? |
21635 | What''s yours?" |
21635 | What?" |
21635 | Whatever have you been doing to yourself overnight?" |
21635 | Whatever made me think of such a stupid trick as that?" |
21635 | When did you decide?" |
21635 | When he only continued frowning at the letter in his hand, Carol spoke up brightly,"Yes, is n''t it?" |
21635 | When you have finished it, give it to me, will you? |
21635 | Whenever you find anything like that, Connie, will you bring it to me? |
21635 | Where did it come from?" |
21635 | Where did you get it?" |
21635 | Where will we live now, father?" |
21635 | Where''s my hat, Lark? |
21635 | Where''s that other slipper? |
21635 | Which do you prefer, Lark?" |
21635 | Who''s the laugh on now? |
21635 | Why do n''t you go and rave to her?" |
21635 | Why do you do it? |
21635 | Why would n''t he like it? |
21635 | Why?" |
21635 | Why?" |
21635 | Will you do that much for us?" |
21635 | Will you do your best?" |
21635 | Wo n''t he, Connie?" |
21635 | Would n''t I be a peach?" |
21635 | Would you ever believe those twins are past fifteen, and nearly through their junior year? |
21635 | Yes, they were leaving, but whither were they bound? |
21635 | You ca n''t be married without Carol, can you?" |
21635 | You have your hair fixed a new way, have n''t you?" |
21635 | You love me, do n''t you? |
21635 | You must arrange your hair in the most_ Ladies''Home Journal_ style, and--""What are you going to wear?" |
21635 | You think they''ll be back soon, do you?" |
21635 | You were there Tuesday, were n''t you?" |
21635 | You wo n''t be cold?" |
21635 | You wo n''t mind that, will you, Carol?" |
21635 | You wo n''t pass it around for the family to laugh at, will you?" |
21635 | You wo n''t then, will you?" |
21635 | You would come up here to tease us, would you? |
21635 | You would n''t say a word to his taking girls home from things, would you?" |
21635 | You''ll be good, and help, wo n''t you?" |
21635 | You''ll come to me, wo n''t you?" |
21635 | You''ll forgive me this once, wo n''t you? |
21635 | You''ll stay for luncheon with me, wo n''t you? |
21635 | You''re sure you''ll treat him nicely?" |
21635 | You''re the one with the literary longings, are n''t you?" |
21635 | You-- you''re late, are n''t you? |
18413 | A-- a-- a what? |
18413 | Am I supposed to guess? |
18413 | And Larkie, too? |
18413 | And let us make taffy after supper? |
18413 | And the baby? |
18413 | And what are you going to be? |
18413 | And what do they say of me? |
18413 | And what shall we serve them? |
18413 | And where in the world did you get these towels and silk shirts? |
18413 | And where is the chair- bottom now? |
18413 | And why did you take it? |
18413 | And you two great big girls came off and left poor little Connie in there alone with a burglar, did you? 18413 And you understand, do n''t you, father, that if everything does not go just exactly right, I shall feel I am disgraced for life? |
18413 | Are n''t they at home? 18413 Are n''t you Limber- Limb Grant?" |
18413 | Are the girls at school? |
18413 | Are the twins boys, or a boy and a girl? |
18413 | Are these rotten oysters? |
18413 | Are you assaulted? |
18413 | Are you beginning to feel sick? 18413 Are you going to be busy this afternoon, Prudence?" |
18413 | Are you going to live in Mount Mark now? 18413 Are you hurt?" |
18413 | Are you sick, Prue? |
18413 | Are you sick? |
18413 | Are your feet wet, twins? |
18413 | Been any men in here to- night? |
18413 | Before? |
18413 | But do n''t you see how hard it will be for me to go away? |
18413 | But do n''t you want to get married,--some time? |
18413 | But do you like her? |
18413 | But how do you twins understand all these things so thoroughly? |
18413 | But she will ask where we got it, and what shall we say? |
18413 | But wo n''t it be rather-- poky-- just sitting in the front room by yourselves all evening? |
18413 | But you precious child,he whispered,"why did n''t you call out, or pound on the door?" |
18413 | Ca n''t you send those girls away for the night,--to some of the neighbors? 18413 Can I go and take a walk?" |
18413 | Can you bring him here? |
18413 | Can your father make her eat? 18413 Come down- stairs, will you? |
18413 | Come now, what do they say? 18413 Could you walk from here to Burlington at one stretch?" |
18413 | Did he look rich? |
18413 | Did the twins play fair, Connie? |
18413 | Did they say you might have them? |
18413 | Did you ask Miss Allen about it? |
18413 | Did you ever have a lover, Prudence? 18413 Did you ever?" |
18413 | Did you get my application? |
18413 | Did you know your sleeve was coming out? |
18413 | Did you play football at college? 18413 Did you see him?" |
18413 | Did you take the bottom out of this chair?--It must have been horribly uncomfortable for those who have sat there!--However did it happen? |
18413 | Did you think I walked clear from Des Moines? |
18413 | Did you? 18413 Did your father send you on an errand?" |
18413 | Do n''t the twins tell you little things that happen at school,--like that, for instance? |
18413 | Do n''t you have dreams of the future? 18413 Do n''t you have dreams?" |
18413 | Do n''t you remember saying you could n''t swallow when we were coming home from school? |
18413 | Do n''t you think you owe me something, as well as your father and sisters? 18413 Do n''t you think, my dear,"began Mrs. Prentiss too sweetly,"that they are a little more than you can manage? |
18413 | Do n''t you want some fudge, Connie? |
18413 | Do the twins dress alike? |
18413 | Do you call that a blessing? |
18413 | Do you drink? |
18413 | Do you like Miss Allen? |
18413 | Do you mean you want me to get my things, and go right now? |
18413 | Do you mind if we take Jerry around by the woodshed for a few minutes, Prue? |
18413 | Do you really prefer to stay at home, Prudence? |
18413 | Do you see this board? |
18413 | Do you suppose there can be seven devils in my tongue, Lark, like there are in the Bible? |
18413 | Do you suppose they caught her? |
18413 | Do you suppose you can find us some milk, Prue? 18413 Do you think I have pet bugs to carry around with me for company?" |
18413 | Do you think it is all right for me to wear it, father? |
18413 | Do you think me so unmanly that I could n''t fall in love? |
18413 | Do you think we can carry home oysters for the-- the-- personal consumption of this Babbling young prince? 18413 Do you want me to rub it?" |
18413 | Do your shoulders hurt, Carol? |
18413 | Does Prudence know about that? |
18413 | Does she miss me? 18413 Does that make it square?" |
18413 | Else you would not have taken it, eh? 18413 Excuse me just a minute, will you?" |
18413 | Fairy, did n''t father leave his watch hanging on that nail by the table? 18413 Father,"began Prudence, her eyes on the lace coverlet,"do you think it would be all right for me to wear that silk dressing- gown of mother''s? |
18413 | Finish getting supper, will you, Fairy? 18413 Go in and entertain Babbie till I come down, wo n''t you?" |
18413 | Has Prudence been worrying about something this winter? |
18413 | Has she been grieving, and fretting for something? |
18413 | Have heretics feelings? |
18413 | Have n''t you seen the morning paper? 18413 Have you been sick? |
18413 | Have you got any rotten ones? |
18413 | How about the twins? |
18413 | How do you do? |
18413 | How do you expect to keep to- day''s minutes? |
18413 | How is that? |
18413 | How long did it take you coming from Des Moines to Mount Mark? |
18413 | How much have you got? |
18413 | How old are you, my dear? |
18413 | How should I know? 18413 I am sure you are very nice indeed, and we are going to be good friends, are n''t we? |
18413 | I am sure you will not mind that, will you father? 18413 I suppose it would hardly do to-- pop corn, would it?" |
18413 | I''ll bet there are a lot of nice fellows in Mount Mark, are n''t there? |
18413 | I-- I-- well, you know I-- you remember what I told you that first day, do n''t you? 18413 If I get below seventy will I be put down a grade?" |
18413 | Is Des Moines just full of beautiful girls? |
18413 | Is Mr. Harold in? |
18413 | Is he handsome? |
18413 | Is he young? |
18413 | Is it a riddle? |
18413 | Is n''t he a duck? |
18413 | Is n''t it a dandy? |
18413 | Is n''t it a lovely day? 18413 Is n''t it beautiful, Prudence?" |
18413 | Is n''t it beautiful? 18413 Is n''t it beautiful?" |
18413 | Is n''t she in on this? |
18413 | Is n''t that Mrs. Adams coming this way? 18413 Is n''t that heresy? |
18413 | Is she all right? |
18413 | Is she better? |
18413 | Is she sleeping? |
18413 | Is she very stupid? |
18413 | Is that your idea of love? 18413 Is there any way out of that closet besides this door?" |
18413 | Is your throat still sore, Carol? |
18413 | It is that young man, is n''t it? |
18413 | It was n''t the one that had the giminy billibus, was it? |
18413 | It''s a good thing father has to go to the trustees''meeting to- night, is n''t it? |
18413 | It''s a pretty street, is n''t it? |
18413 | It''s just Miss Avery getting home from school.--Isn''t it, Prudence? 18413 It''s nice she can sleep like that, is n''t it?" |
18413 | It''s so hot walking, is n''t it? 18413 Jerry is out unusually early, too, is n''t he? |
18413 | Jerry,he said abruptly,"did you and Prudence have a quarrel? |
18413 | Just like ordinary men, is n''t he? |
18413 | Just sit and look at each other and admire yourselves? |
18413 | Let''s make taffy, shall we, Fairy? |
18413 | Listen now, Prue,--how is this? |
18413 | Look here, Prudence, what did Miss Allen tell you? 18413 Look here, Prue,--what do you make of this? |
18413 | May I come in a minute? |
18413 | Maybe he will,--but who will keep the parsonage while I am away? |
18413 | Must you prepare meat for breading half an hour before cooking, or when? |
18413 | No,said Lark,"we have better judgment than to go splashing through the wet old snow.--What''s the matter with you, Carol? |
18413 | No,--but do n''t you remember the picnic,--and how you kept gathering them up in your handkerchiefs and putting them in your pockets? 18413 Now, tell father,"he urged,"how did you get in the dungeon? |
18413 | Now, what is wrong? 18413 Now, what would you advise us to do?" |
18413 | Now, will you twins run down- town for the oysters? |
18413 | Oh, Carol,said Prudence reproachfully, wiping her eyes,"how could you start us all off like that?" |
18413 | Oh, Des Moines is quite a city, is n''t it? 18413 Oh, Larkie, will you run up- stairs and bring my lace handkerchief? |
18413 | Oh, Prudence, do you suppose the doctors will let me come in and watch them bandage your head? 18413 Oh, are you ready?" |
18413 | Oh, father,she said quite snappily,"is n''t that just like me?" |
18413 | Oh, we''ve had it in the house quite a while,said Prudence, adding swiftly,"Is n''t it warm, Connie? |
18413 | Oh, why does n''t father do it? |
18413 | Oh, yes, Lark,suggested Carol finally,"do n''t you remember she said the Bible was an allegory?" |
18413 | Oh,--whatever will Mattie Moore say to me? 18413 Or this afternoon? |
18413 | Papa says his feet are not wet, and that you are a big simpleton, and-- Oh, did you make cinnamon rolls to- day, Prue? 18413 People do not have sense in their bones, Fairy, and-- and-- shall I say professor, or just plain Mister?" |
18413 | Prudence Starr,she cried furiously,"how dare you say such things of us? |
18413 | Prudence, shall we have tea or coffee? |
18413 | Put them on the table, Fairy dearest, and-- leave me for a little while, will you? 18413 Ride, sir? |
18413 | Say, Grant, what''s a fellow like you doing on such a fifth- rate job as this? 18413 Say, Prudence, is n''t this that old brown coat of father''s?" |
18413 | Shall I go down now? 18413 Shall I put flannel on her chest and throat, father?" |
18413 | Shall I raise a window? |
18413 | Shall we continue the meeting, Ladies? |
18413 | She''s very pretty and sweet, is n''t she? |
18413 | Sweet corn? |
18413 | The Methodist minister''s little girl, is n''t it? 18413 The front room?" |
18413 | The whole summer? |
18413 | Then you had another coat? |
18413 | To- morrow, Prudence? 18413 Was it a bad sprain? |
18413 | Was it all right? |
18413 | Was this something of yours, Fairy? |
18413 | We saw him use his wings when Connie yanked him out of the big maple, did n''t we, Lark? |
18413 | Well, first, are you a Christian? |
18413 | Well, if this did n''t belong to one of you, whose was it? |
18413 | Well, what can I do for you, Miss Constance? |
18413 | Well, when does your Des Moines tour come off? 18413 What are you going to do all evening?" |
18413 | What are you going to do to him? |
18413 | What did Miss Allen say? |
18413 | What did he say? |
18413 | What did you do to this soup, Prudence? |
18413 | What do they say of us? |
18413 | What do you think of that? |
18413 | What do you want it for? |
18413 | What else did Miss Allen say at school? |
18413 | What happened? |
18413 | What has all this to do with Miss Allen? |
18413 | What has she been doing? |
18413 | What has that got to do with it? |
18413 | What have you been doing all night? 18413 What have you been doing, Lark?" |
18413 | What in the world did you say that for? 18413 What in the world did you think I would walk from Des Moines for?" |
18413 | What in the world would they ever do without you, Prudence? 18413 What in the world?" |
18413 | What in the world? |
18413 | What is going on to- night? |
18413 | What is the matter, Lark? |
18413 | What is the matter? 18413 What is the matter? |
18413 | What is there about me that you do not like? |
18413 | What is unusual about the circumstances? |
18413 | What kind of a smell? |
18413 | What now? 18413 What''s that got to do with it?" |
18413 | What? |
18413 | What?--Oh!--Which do you want, Jerry? |
18413 | When''s he coming back? |
18413 | When''s that Morley chap coming back? |
18413 | Where did you get this stuff? |
18413 | Where does he live? 18413 Where in the world did you get hold of an idea like that?" |
18413 | Where in the world did you get such an idea as that? |
18413 | Where is he now? |
18413 | Where is your baggage? |
18413 | Where is your umbrella? |
18413 | Where''s Connie? 18413 Which does your father prefer?" |
18413 | Which is your way of saying that you do not like me, is n''t it? |
18413 | Which of your professors do you like best? |
18413 | Who shut that door? |
18413 | Who wrote it? 18413 Who? |
18413 | Whose coat is this, Prudence? |
18413 | Whose? |
18413 | Why are n''t you going to be married? |
18413 | Why did n''t you talk it over with me, Prudence? |
18413 | Why do n''t you? 18413 Why we wanted to make----""You and Lark?" |
18413 | Why, you see, father, Jerry lives with his aunt in Des Moines,--he told you that, did n''t he? 18413 Why? |
18413 | Why? |
18413 | Why? |
18413 | Will five dollars be enough? |
18413 | Will you be warm enough? |
18413 | Will you get the sirup now? |
18413 | Will you kindly jab this into me? |
18413 | Will you loan me twenty dollars until after Christmas, Connie? |
18413 | Will you tell him that Constance Starr wishes to speak to him, privately, and that it is very important? |
18413 | Wo n''t Fairy make us? 18413 Wo n''t Prudence tell you?" |
18413 | Would n''t it be more fun to have the girls in for a little while? |
18413 | Would n''t you like a little nice, hot, oyster stew? |
18413 | Would you have promised, if she had asked it? |
18413 | Yes, and have refreshments for just you two? |
18413 | Yes, and have refreshments for just you two? |
18413 | Yes, may I? 18413 Yes, of course.--When is he coming back?" |
18413 | Yes? |
18413 | You are Miss Starr, are n''t you? |
18413 | You are Mr. Harmer, are n''t you? 18413 You are Mrs. Adams, are n''t you? |
18413 | You see? |
18413 | You''ve been up all night, have n''t you, dearest? |
18413 | You-- did Prudence send you? |
18413 | Your eyes are brown, are n''t they? |
18413 | ''Carol,''said Miss Adams gently,''you forgot yourself, did n''t you?'' |
18413 | A Methodist parsonage is not just in your line, is it?" |
18413 | A little later he said,"Do you mind if I go upstairs and talk to your father a few minutes? |
18413 | And Carol added,"Will you kiss Prudence good night for us, and tell her we kept praying all the time? |
18413 | And Prudence said,''Now, father, on your word of honor, did you knock me down with that ball on purpose?'' |
18413 | And before Prudence was fairly inside the door, she demanded,"What is it? |
18413 | And do you attend the college at Mount Mark? |
18413 | And he said,''I wonder if your sister would n''t go? |
18413 | And if ever I can help with poor little Hattie, will you let me know? |
18413 | And she ca n''t talk about it yet, so be careful what you say, will you?" |
18413 | And this exquisite board?" |
18413 | And what do you suppose the weird creature did with it? |
18413 | And what would the girls say if I should go back on them? |
18413 | And when Connie came to the telephone, she cried,"Oh, you blessed little child, why did n''t you tell me? |
18413 | And when we are better acquainted, will you let me call you Prudence?" |
18413 | And who is Fairy? |
18413 | And why should he be at it so early in the morning? |
18413 | And wo n''t you stay for dinner with us? |
18413 | And you ca n''t be happy without me, can you?" |
18413 | And, do you mind if I just suggest that you go a little slow with Prudence? |
18413 | Are n''t those twins unique? |
18413 | Are n''t you going to give us one?" |
18413 | Are the girls up yet?" |
18413 | Are you coming to stay?" |
18413 | Are you in a very great hurry this afternoon? |
18413 | Are you raising him, too?" |
18413 | Are you referring to this Babbling creature now?" |
18413 | Are you sick? |
18413 | Are your feelings hurt?" |
18413 | Are your feet wet?" |
18413 | As soon as they finished supper, Lark said,"Do n''t you think we''d better go right to bed, Prue? |
18413 | Babbie''s such a giddy scatter- brained youngster, you''d think he''d prefer----""Do you like him, Fairy? |
18413 | Before they went up- stairs, Lark inquired sarcastically:"I suppose, Fairy, you''ll don your best blue silk in honor of this event?" |
18413 | But I guess you are n''t that kind, after all?" |
18413 | But Prudence asked,"Where did you get this money, Connie?" |
18413 | But do n''t you think it only fair that you should give me a chance to try?" |
18413 | But does n''t the snow make you think-- pretty things, Prudence? |
18413 | But her eyes clouded a little as she asked,"Do you think they would rather have Aunt Grace than me?" |
18413 | But how in the world will you get home? |
18413 | But is n''t it a nuisance to have him tagging along home with me, when I might be having such a good time with you and the twins, or father? |
18413 | But is n''t it strange that the prettiest and dearest one of them all should be the oldest daughter?" |
18413 | But it is perfectly glorious to have five hundred dollars, is n''t it? |
18413 | But one simply ca n''t tell beforehand what to expect, can one? |
18413 | But please, Prudence, wo n''t you punish me some way without letting Lark know about it? |
18413 | But she looked so-- heartsick, did n''t she, Fairy?" |
18413 | But the next question,--can you pass a strict physical examination?" |
18413 | But what has happened to my girls? |
18413 | But what has that to do with it? |
18413 | But what of that? |
18413 | But when she reached the top, and peered around her, she found little comfort,--and no desirable company? |
18413 | But why? |
18413 | But you will write to me, wo n''t you?" |
18413 | But, Prudence, you wo n''t let Carol know, will you? |
18413 | But-- doesn''t it seem wrong, father, that-- a girl-- that I-- should love Jerry more than-- you and the girls? |
18413 | CHAPTER XIII SHE ORDERS HER LIFE"Prudence, are you going to Aunt Grace''s early in the summer, or late?" |
18413 | Ca n''t we go somewhere else?" |
18413 | Ca n''t you tell nice, interesting, mild stories?" |
18413 | Ca n''t you wait just five minutes? |
18413 | Can a girl tell a man she prefers to go home with her family, without hurting his feelings? |
18413 | Can you carry her, father?" |
18413 | Carrie''s my twin, and-- oh, father, do n''t you see how it is?" |
18413 | Come now, as you stood at the window there, what were you thinking?" |
18413 | Connie ran in excitedly, wanting to know what was the matter with everybody, and were n''t they to have any luncheon? |
18413 | Could n''t you have pretended to be interested? |
18413 | Dare she trust Lark in such a crisis? |
18413 | Did I ever tell you what Carol said about that kitchen- dining- room- living- room combination at Exminster? |
18413 | Did I judge my children by what was in their hearts, or just by the trouble they made me?" |
18413 | Did n''t God bring us together, and make us love each other? |
18413 | Did the twins ever tell you what happened the first day of school?" |
18413 | Did you call me, Prudence?" |
18413 | Did you ever have a coat like this, Prudence? |
18413 | Did you ever have five hundred dollars before? |
18413 | Did you ever see a rector jumping a three- wire fence, and running full speed across his front yard, in pursuit of a flying family? |
18413 | Did you find out? |
18413 | Did you make any noise coming down the stairs?" |
18413 | Do n''t they talk of their professors at home at all?" |
18413 | Do n''t you like me then, after all?" |
18413 | Do n''t you really think an older woman is needed?" |
18413 | Do n''t you remember the sheep and the goats? |
18413 | Do n''t you remember what Orlando said about Rosalind,--''just as tall as my heart''? |
18413 | Do n''t you see how it is? |
18413 | Do n''t you see it is? |
18413 | Do n''t you think He intended us for each other? |
18413 | Do n''t you think he''s tiresome? |
18413 | Do n''t you think our love for you is big enough to make us happy in seeing you happy? |
18413 | Do n''t you think there is something awe- inspiring in the idea of just turning a little knob on the wall, and flooding a whole room with light? |
18413 | Do n''t you want some more fudge? |
18413 | Do n''t you?" |
18413 | Do you expect the Ladies to look right through it?" |
18413 | Do you get seasick when you climb high?" |
18413 | Do you know what the scholars call Professor Duke?" |
18413 | Do you know where the bottom of that chair has gone?" |
18413 | Do you know which way is nearest to a house? |
18413 | Do you like blue eyes? |
18413 | Do you like riding in a car?" |
18413 | Do you mean to say they have never told you about it?" |
18413 | Do you mind if I ask you a few questions?" |
18413 | Do you mind if I move my chair a little closer?" |
18413 | Do you mind if I tie you in, to make assurance doubly sure?" |
18413 | Do you remember how I shoved him away, and shuddered? |
18413 | Do you remember that hill, father? |
18413 | Do you see it?" |
18413 | Do you see? |
18413 | Do you suppose I could wipe my fingers with a handkerchief that had been in one of his pockets?" |
18413 | Do you suppose you can do that, Jerry? |
18413 | Do you think I want an invalid on my hands?" |
18413 | Do you think it would be all right to send Limber- Limb Grant a letter of thanks for it? |
18413 | Do you think it would be all right? |
18413 | Do you think we are as despicable as all that? |
18413 | Do you think we''d better tell Prudence all about it?" |
18413 | Do you think you can let me have it?" |
18413 | Do you want it a little shorter, Connie, or is that about right?" |
18413 | Do you want me to call you Jerry still?" |
18413 | Do you want to come with me?" |
18413 | Do you want to keep us away from her to attend to you?" |
18413 | Do you want to make Carrie worse?" |
18413 | Do you wish you had never met me?" |
18413 | Do you?" |
18413 | Do your friends call you Jerry?" |
18413 | Do-- do you love me so much, my dearest?" |
18413 | Does it pain you very badly? |
18413 | Does n''t he require sleep, as the rest of us do?" |
18413 | Does n''t it seem-- wicked?" |
18413 | Does she seem sorry that I am away? |
18413 | Does your head still ache?" |
18413 | Even Prudence laughed a little at this, but she said,"Why do n''t you scold her?" |
18413 | Every mother there was asking in her heart,"Did I punish my children just for the effect on me? |
18413 | Explain it to the girls, will you?" |
18413 | Fairy sank back, intensely mortified, and Miss Carr chirped brightly:"Oh, Fairy, dear, did you write this little poem? |
18413 | Fairy stifled her laughter with difficulty, and said in a low voice,"Would n''t you like a little nice, hot, oyster stew?" |
18413 | Father''s coat, I mean?" |
18413 | Father, will you put on your black suit, or are you too busy? |
18413 | Five dollars you say you want?" |
18413 | From Des Moines?" |
18413 | Go to bed, wo n''t you, sweetheart? |
18413 | Goodness knows I eat enough-- Why, what is the matter?" |
18413 | Had the awful twins filled it with needles for the reception of the poor Ladies? |
18413 | Harmer?" |
18413 | Harold?" |
18413 | Harold?" |
18413 | Has Connie been in mischief?" |
18413 | Has the parsonage a porch?" |
18413 | Have I ever failed you? |
18413 | Have you been eating? |
18413 | He closed the door after him, did n''t he, Lark?" |
18413 | He offered me his handkerchief to wipe it off? |
18413 | He stepped into the closet, did n''t he, Lark?" |
18413 | Honestly, may I go up to- morrow? |
18413 | How can you think of such sweet little things? |
18413 | How did you get him in the closet? |
18413 | How do they expect parsonage people to keep up appearances when they have n''t any money?" |
18413 | How far is it to Mount Mark? |
18413 | How many times have I told you not to tell weird stories like that? |
18413 | How much will the interest be on five dollars?" |
18413 | How old are you?" |
18413 | I am an abominably solid sleeper, am I not? |
18413 | I do not have to go, do I? |
18413 | I love houses with porches, do n''t you? |
18413 | I thought father had forgotten to take his watch with him, but it was n''t there.--Do you really think it was Sunday he forgot it, Fairy?" |
18413 | I''ll be just at the head of the stairs, and if Prudence wants me, you will call, wo n''t you, Mr. Harmer? |
18413 | I''ll----""Prudence, do you use half milk and half water for creamed tomato soup, or all milk?" |
18413 | I''m not going to get married, so it would be silly to fall in love, would n''t it?" |
18413 | I''m so fond of crackers and milk, are n''t you, Babbie?" |
18413 | I-- I like it better to be with my sisters than----""Than with me? |
18413 | I-- you will be nice to him, wo n''t you?" |
18413 | If I fail them, will they ever trust anybody else? |
18413 | If I make you some soup, will you eat it?" |
18413 | If he commands her?" |
18413 | Imes?" |
18413 | Instantly Connie was asked the all- important question:"Are your feet wet?" |
18413 | Is Jerry coming to spend Christmas with us?" |
18413 | Is anything wrong? |
18413 | Is anything wrong?" |
18413 | Is it my fault?" |
18413 | Is it very awful?" |
18413 | Is it very nice? |
18413 | Is n''t it a beauty?" |
18413 | Is n''t it a funny name, father? |
18413 | Is n''t it about time for the twins to get here, Prudence? |
18413 | Is n''t it nice that we can count on Fairy''s remembering?" |
18413 | Is n''t it pretty? |
18413 | Is n''t that a handsome Venus? |
18413 | Is n''t this a lovely yard? |
18413 | Is that all right? |
18413 | Is that the school over there?" |
18413 | Is that where you live?" |
18413 | Is there any way to turn a person down without letting him know it? |
18413 | Is your father very strict? |
18413 | It comes in very handy right now, does n''t it? |
18413 | It does n''t seem so bad, does it? |
18413 | It is a sad thing to think of a college professor being called Fairy all her life, is n''t it? |
18413 | It must have taken every cent of your money, did n''t it? |
18413 | It was mighty lucky he happened along, was n''t it? |
18413 | It''s a great honor for me to have the privilege of bringing up four clever girls to do great things,--don''t you think? |
18413 | It''s-- do you-- do you notice a-- a funny smell in here? |
18413 | Jerry Harmer, you need me to take care of you, do n''t you?" |
18413 | Leaning forward suddenly, she said,"Miss Starr, why do the twins dislike me?" |
18413 | Let me run up- stairs first, wo n''t you? |
18413 | Let me take it to- morrow morning, will you? |
18413 | Let''s just be friends now, ca n''t we-- until later-- for a long time yet? |
18413 | May I examine your foot?" |
18413 | May I have it? |
18413 | May I keep it? |
18413 | May I open the door, Prudence?" |
18413 | May n''t I read it aloud?" |
18413 | Maybe if you will send me a paper and pencil-- I can write him a note now? |
18413 | Morgan?" |
18413 | Morgan?" |
18413 | Now what are you going to do as a last resort?'' |
18413 | Now what do you reckon he meant by that, Fairy? |
18413 | Now, do not talk too much, Prue, and-- what shall we have for dinner? |
18413 | Now, why? |
18413 | Now, will I dare to come back to- morrow if I stay for dinner to- night? |
18413 | Now,--oh, Fairy, did you remember to dust the back of the dresser in our bedroom?" |
18413 | Of course, the reporters can practise balancing them scientifically,--but how does it happen that they always have aquiline noses? |
18413 | Oh, Connie, wo n''t you turn the clock a little this way, so I can see it? |
18413 | Oh, it does look nice, does n''t it, Fairy? |
18413 | Oh, that''s Christian Science, is n''t it? |
18413 | Oh, what is it?" |
18413 | On my right side, Fairy, do you understand what that means? |
18413 | Or am I imagining it? |
18413 | Professor likes women to be dignified and intellectual and deep, and----""Then why on earth did he ask me to go?" |
18413 | Prudence knows it, but she did not make me promise to quit that?" |
18413 | Red crosses make a very pretty decoration, do n''t you think they do, Lark?" |
18413 | Shall I get the maple sirup for the pancakes? |
18413 | She''s as bad as the priest and Levite, is n''t she?" |
18413 | Should they go farther? |
18413 | So I said,''Do you mean Prudence, or one of the twins?'' |
18413 | Something was hurting them, but whether it was their fear of the wrath of Prudence, or the twinges of tender consciences,--who can say? |
18413 | Sometime will you let me ride your wheel?" |
18413 | Suppose you should see a blackbird running a race down the street with a sparrow, what would you call it?'' |
18413 | Thank you, Lark,--isn''t it a pretty handkerchief? |
18413 | That he should come first? |
18413 | The Ladies smiled, and Miss Carr, laughing lightly, said,"She is an attentive creature, is n''t she?" |
18413 | The boy could n''t imagine, and professor said,''What would you call that, Carol?'' |
18413 | The parables, for instance,--what are they? |
18413 | The question is, What shall it be?" |
18413 | The soup is ready, and piping hot,--but what is it you want me to say?" |
18413 | The very best and closest of friends?" |
18413 | The what?" |
18413 | Then as Prudence rose to go home, she asked eagerly,"Do you think the twins will like me now?" |
18413 | Then as he turned toward the door, he asked carelessly,"Is he very good- looking, Prudence?" |
18413 | Then he said,''Now, Carol, if I was the king''s eldest son, what would you call me?'' |
18413 | Then leaning forward:"What do you do, Miss Avery, when you meet people you dislike at very first sight?" |
18413 | Then said Prudence, seemingly of her own free will, but really directed by an all- controlling Providence,"Is n''t it great fun to ride a bicycle? |
18413 | Then she added rather shyly,"Fairy, are you ashamed of me sometimes? |
18413 | Then she inquired in a low voice,"Did you tell him why you wanted it?" |
18413 | Then she said significantly,"I suppose you are going to divide with us?" |
18413 | Then with the admirable board beneath my arm, I mount to the heights of-- Say, twins, did n''t I see an old buggy seat out in the barn to- day? |
18413 | Then you must come to the door and say,''Would n''t you like a little oyster stew?'' |
18413 | Then,"Did you send him anything, Prue?" |
18413 | There is school to- morrow, is n''t there?" |
18413 | There''s no use waiting, is there? |
18413 | They were exasperating, and humiliating, too, but what did they do that was really mean? |
18413 | They will tell you if you ask them, wo n''t they?" |
18413 | This is almost bordering on talent, is n''t it? |
18413 | Us?" |
18413 | Was she complaining about us? |
18413 | Was the ride very hard on your ankle?" |
18413 | We are, are n''t we? |
18413 | We ask her,"What if you had not gone out for a ride that morning?" |
18413 | We did it for a good purpose, do n''t you see we did? |
18413 | Well, she asked us a riddle,''When is a dining- room not a dining- room?'' |
18413 | What are you going to do?'' |
18413 | What are you talking about?" |
18413 | What do you care about college?" |
18413 | What do you suppose could have sent the lover away like that?" |
18413 | What does it smell like?" |
18413 | What had Miss Allen told their sister? |
18413 | What have I done? |
18413 | What have they been doing? |
18413 | What have they done to- day? |
18413 | What in the world do you want the back of the dresser dusted for? |
18413 | What in the world had happened to separate in the morning these two who had been kissing so frankly in the back yard the evening before? |
18413 | What in the world has she done?" |
18413 | What in the world is that?" |
18413 | What is his line?" |
18413 | What is the matter? |
18413 | What matter? |
18413 | What shall I do?" |
18413 | What shall we have?" |
18413 | What time is it, Fairy?" |
18413 | What was he doing in the hickory grove?" |
18413 | What was her errand? |
18413 | What was it you said?" |
18413 | What will they do when you get married?" |
18413 | What would etiquette think of her, after this? |
18413 | What would the-- others do without you? |
18413 | What''s the job?" |
18413 | What, then, was the explanation? |
18413 | What----""I forget what you told me to say,"whispered Prudence wretchedly,"what was it? |
18413 | Whatever had they been doing now? |
18413 | When the college girls are here, and you are all talking so brilliantly, are n''t you kind of mortified that I am so stupid and dull? |
18413 | Where are they? |
18413 | Where did it come from?" |
18413 | Where did you get it?" |
18413 | Where''s the money?" |
18413 | Who could have sense on such a day, with such a girl as this? |
18413 | Who would keep the parsonage? |
18413 | Who would look after you?" |
18413 | Who would raise the girls? |
18413 | Why am I always so ravenously hungry in the morning? |
18413 | Why are you all hugging the register, may I ask? |
18413 | Why are you staying away?" |
18413 | Why did n''t you call me? |
18413 | Why do n''t they keep their pledges? |
18413 | Why do n''t they pay for their religion?" |
18413 | Why do n''t you mind me, and do as I tell you? |
18413 | Why do n''t you sit still? |
18413 | Why do they call it Mount Mark?" |
18413 | Why in the world did n''t you tell us beforehand?" |
18413 | Why was Lark going upstairs? |
18413 | Why wo n''t the twins give me a chance? |
18413 | Why, then, do you go back on me now, when you really need me?" |
18413 | Why? |
18413 | Why?" |
18413 | Will that be all right? |
18413 | Will you be down soon?" |
18413 | Will you carry me in?" |
18413 | Will you come in?" |
18413 | Will you do it? |
18413 | Will you do that, twinnies?" |
18413 | Will you do that?" |
18413 | Will you do this for me?" |
18413 | Will you eat in the dining- room?" |
18413 | Will you forgive me, Connie? |
18413 | Will you forgive me? |
18413 | Will you promise?" |
18413 | Wo n''t it be a good joke on her?" |
18413 | Wo n''t that be better?" |
18413 | Wo n''t that do?" |
18413 | Wo n''t that do?" |
18413 | Wo n''t they break your pledge if you leave them out?" |
18413 | Wo n''t you be a good girl now, and not make sister feel badly about it? |
18413 | Would I ever go to bed without making sure that Connie was safe and sound?" |
18413 | Would n''t Connie say that was disgracing the parsonage?" |
18413 | Would n''t it be glorious?" |
18413 | Would n''t the twins have laughed? |
18413 | Would that be just or fair? |
18413 | Would you keep these pearls on, Fairy, or would you take them off?" |
18413 | Would your father let you spend a week? |
18413 | You are the soul of the parsonage, are n''t you?" |
18413 | You call me Jerry, will you?" |
18413 | You know I didn''t!--But-- maybe Jerry wo n''t forgive me now?" |
18413 | You know what an atheist is, do n''t you? |
18413 | You know what heresy is, do n''t you? |
18413 | You might get cross, and take them away from me.--Did you go to college?" |
18413 | You see, father, I really feel that this is a crisis in the life of the parsonage----""How long does a parsonage usually live?" |
18413 | You want me to call you Jerry, do n''t you?" |
18413 | You will stay, wo n''t you?" |
18413 | You''re Mr. Starr, the Methodist minister at Mount Mark, are n''t you?" |
18413 | You''re not just fooling me, are you? |
18413 | You''ve never had a vacation in your life, and father promised Aunt Grace on his reputation as a minister, did n''t you, papa?" |
18413 | [ Illustration:"Yes, and have refreshments for just you two?"] |
18413 | are you asleep?" |
