14312 | And why should we not speak to and kindly greet an animal as we pass it, as instinctively as we do a human fellow- being? |
14312 | And why should we not to- day have the powers of the foremost in the days of old? |
14312 | And, again, who was Christ? |
14312 | And, much more, do you think there is any comparison whatever between the real pleasure and happiness and satisfaction in the lives of the two? |
14312 | Are we not satisfied with the effects, the results? |
14312 | Are you a minister? |
14312 | Are you a writer? |
14312 | Are you an orator? |
14312 | Are you in the walks of private life? |
14312 | Are you interested, my dear reader, in the answer? |
14312 | Are you seeking, then, to make for yourself a name? |
14312 | But should they on this account be despised? |
14312 | But what, what is dominion overall the world, with heaven left out? |
14312 | But who, let it be asked, constituted me a judge of my fellow- man? |
14312 | Can any law be more clearly enunciated, can anything be more definite and more absolute than this? |
14312 | Do I not recognize the fact that the moment I judge my fellow- man, by that very act I judge myself? |
14312 | Do we at times fail in obtaining the results we desire? |
14312 | For what, let us ask, is a Christian,--the real, not merely in name? |
14312 | For what, let us ask, is a miracle? |
14312 | Has not one been on account of a belief in a future life for man, but not for the animal? |
14312 | Have we it within our power to determine at all times what types of habits shall take form in our lives? |
14312 | Have you sorrows or trials that seem very heavy to bear? |
14312 | Have you this greatest thing? |
14312 | Heredity and its attendant circumstances and influences? |
14312 | Hollow the life? |
14312 | How attain to its realization? |
14312 | How call it into a dominating activity? |
14312 | How can I attain to a true and lasting greatness? |
14312 | How can I know the true secret of power? |
14312 | How can I make life yield its fullest and best? |
14312 | How, then, does it manifest itself? |
14312 | I have heard it asked, If one has n''t it to any marked degree naturally, what is to be done? |
14312 | If, then, life be thus founded, can there possibly be any greater incentive to that self- development that brings one up to his highest possibilities? |
14312 | In kindliness, in helpfulness, in service, to those around you? |
14312 | In other words, is habit- forming, character- building, a matter of mere chance, or have we it within our own control? |
14312 | In the very remote history of the race there was one who, violating a great law, having wronged a brother, asked,"Am I my brother''s keeper?" |
14312 | Is it low, devoid of beauty? |
14312 | Is it your ambition to become a great_ writer?_ Very good. |
14312 | Is it your ambition to become great in any particular field, to attain to fame and honor, and thereby to happiness and contentment? |
14312 | Is it your ambition, for example, to become a great_ orator_, to move great masses of men, to receive their praise, their plaudits? |
14312 | Is it your desire then, to be numbered among his followers, to bear that blessed name, the name"Christian"? |
14312 | Is not Christianity, you ask, greater or more important? |
14312 | Is the life high, beautiful? |
14312 | Is there any comparison between the appellation"Lady Bountiful"and"a proud, selfish, pleasure- seeking woman"? |
14312 | It costs the giver comparatively nothing; but who can tell the priceless value to him who receives it? |
14312 | It is but another way of asking that great question that has come through all the ages-- What is the_ summum bonum_ in life? |
14312 | Know ye not that the kingdom of heaven is within you? |
14312 | Know ye not that the kingdom of heaven is within you?" |
14312 | May not this power, then, be used for base as well as for good purposes, for selfish as well as for unselfish ends? |
14312 | Nay, on the other hand, should this not be the greatest reason why we should all the more zealously care for, protect, and kindly treat them? |
14312 | No wonder the cry has gone out again and again from many a human soul, Is life worth the living? |
14312 | Now, do you wonder at his power, his inspiration, his abundance of all things? |
14312 | Or when saw we_ thee_ sick, or in prison, and came unto_ thee_? |
14312 | Our aim at the outset, you will remember, was to find answer to the question-- How can I make life yield its fullest and best? |
14312 | Shall we notice another concrete case? |
14312 | Shall we now give attention to some two or three concrete cases? |
14312 | Should this, however, be a reason why they should be neglected and cruelly treated? |
14312 | THE APPLICATION Are you seeking for greatness, O brother of mine, As the full, fleeting seasons and years glide away? |
14312 | THE PRINCIPLE Would you find that wonderful life supernal, That life so abounding, so rich, and so free? |
14312 | The Master, after all have gone, turns to the woman, his sister, and kindly and gently says,"And where are thine accusers? |
14312 | The question is not, What are the conditions in our lives? |
14312 | The question naturally arising at the outset is, Who, what is God? |
14312 | Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we_ thee_ an hungered, and fed_ thee_? |
14312 | Thoughts upon self? |
14312 | To himself? |
14312 | To others? |
14312 | True it is, then, not, What are the conditions in one''s life? |
14312 | Upon others? |
14312 | What do they say? |
14312 | What do they think? |
14312 | What then must man be, if that which tells us is true? |
14312 | What then, again let us ask, is love to God? |
14312 | What would people, what would my friends, think and say? |
14312 | What, however, can be expected of them when we take the attitude we at present hold toward them? |
14312 | What, shall we ask, is the place, what the value, of prayer? |
14312 | When saw we_ thee_ a stranger, and took_ thee_ in? |
14312 | Where in all the world''s history is to be found a more beautiful or valuable incident than this? |
14312 | Where is the man''s safety in the light of what we have been considering? |
14312 | Who can estimate the influence of a life such as this? |
14312 | Why is this? |
14312 | Would you have them go with greater power, and thus be more effective? |
14312 | Would you have them more effective, each one filled with a living power? |
14312 | Would you write more? |
14312 | but, How do we meet the conditions that we find there? |
14312 | but, How does he meet the conditions that he finds there? |
14312 | doth no man condemn thee?" |
14312 | how can I attain to true greatness? |
14312 | how can I know the true secret of power? |
14312 | or naked, and clothed_ thee_? |
14312 | or still more, may it not be the means of lessening another''s sense of self- dependence, and thus may it not at times do more harm than good? |
14312 | or thirsty, and gave_ thee_ drink? |
14312 | who can tell where it may end? |
455 | Are ye able to drink of the cup? |
455 | Can I get the lecture in book form? |

455 | The Sorrows of the Piano See the piano on this stage? |
455 | The people say,"Is n''t Moses dead?" |

14679 | Yes, I could keep up my reading, but how about the grammar? |
14679 | [ 2]But surely I had better do more than one subject in a day? |
14679 | [ 8] Do you feel that this is very tall talk for quiet lives like yours and mine? 14679 ''Could ye not watch with Me one hour?'' 14679 ''Will ye also go away?'' 14679 And can we dare to put our hand to this plough while neglecting our own training? 14679 And if we know that we are selfish in the matter,--what then? 14679 Another test you should apply to Friendship is, does it lead to idle words? 14679 Are there no old people you could amuse in some way,--possibly with whist? 14679 Are these words too solemn to use, after suggestions on talk which may seem to you to have been occupied with very petty and ignoble details? 14679 Are we to feel absolved from responding to His demand because old Jewish ways have vanished? 14679 Are you learning its lessons, or are you fretting for a remove? 14679 Are you prompt and alert in your movements, or do you indulge in that exasperating slowness, which some girls seem to consider quite a charm? 14679 Are you ready for real work? 14679 Are you to shut your eyes to the new lights, and be as though you had never known them? 14679 Are you, then, to reject all suggestions of a sensible marriage with any man who is not Prince Perfect? 14679 Are your books, and your self- discipline, and your time- table, only a hindrance to this? 14679 But apart from wrong talk, what sort of silly talk are you likely to be infected with at school? 14679 But are you to fritter away the time between this and then? 14679 But can you help being sentimental if you are made like that? 14679 But supposing I granted, for the sake of argument, that the original debt was on your parents''side and not on yours, what then? 14679 But to come at last to Solomon''s ideal-- what is our first impression of her? 14679 But what do you do after breakfast? |

14679 | Do you soak yourself enough in good thoughts to be more soothed and peaceful than you were on Saturday? |
14679 | Do you think it is easy to listen-- that it means mere silence? |

14679 | Have I started, or handed on, spiteful remarks?" |
14679 | Have I tried to get cheap credit for wit, by sharp speeches,_ would- be_ clever criticism and pulling people to pieces? |
14679 | Have any of you the lurking thought,"I was born by no choice of my own: those who brought me into the world owe duty to me, not I to them?" |
14679 | Have the suggestions_ I_ made and the Resolutions_ we_ made, soaked into our lives and altered the stuff of which we are made? |

14679 | If they themselves do care and yet try to seem careless, are they not responsible for half the carelessness in those about them? |

14679 | Is not every right and wise piece of good work for others an attempt to help them to train themselves to live a higher life? |
14679 | Is not this very necessity in home life-- this"I must"--just the thing which makes it akin to our Lord''s life? |
14679 | Is not trustworthiness a main point in those we respect? |
14679 | Is she learning God''s lesson, and fitting herself for the still nobler life He wants to give her? |

14679 | Must you starve either head or heart? |

14679 | No; he is rather saying,"How can you think that our Father values, not the lilies, but only the fact of their growing on this or that bit of earth?" |
14679 | Now, does your way of talking bring out the best side of yourself and of those you talk to? |
14679 | Now, how will such general lessons help you in after- life? |
14679 | Now, is it good or bad for girls to have a strong feeling of this kind for their school? |
14679 | Now, what plan of life should you have? |
14679 | Of course she does; if not, what good would school have done her? |
14679 | On which side do your words go-- talk or chatter? |
14679 | One good question to put daily to yourself is,"How much of my talk to- day was for myself, and against others? |
14679 | Or ask,"Have I, by my way of speaking_ or listening_, lowered any one''s standard to- day?" |
14679 | Ought not the trifling duties to be fuel to her burning desire for her nobleness of life, instead of dust to choke it? |
14679 | PREFACE What_ is_ the awkward age? |
14679 | Purity and Reverence are the two main things in talk, but how about Sense? |
14679 | Purity, truth, and love, Are they such common things? |
14679 | Retreats and Rest- cures are nowadays found to be imperatively necessary; but are not both symptoms of something over- wrought in our system? |
14679 | Saying those things makes the wheels of life''s chariot run smoothly,--we think them, why are we so slow to say them? |
14679 | Shall this be the result of your school learning? |
14679 | So many often say, or feel,"It''s not my duty to do this or that; why should I? |
14679 | So much for Prayer, our duty to God, and for Alms, our duty to our neighbour; how about Fasting, our duty to ourself? |

14679 | There may be girls like yourself living near you who have less; could you not start some sensible reading together? |

34200 | Why do we love her so much? |
34200 | Why do we love the flowers and the trees, the bright green fields and the waving yellow corn? |
34200 | Why does the little violet hide away? |
34200 | Why is it, do you think, that a boy raises his cap? |
34200 | Why is it? |
34200 | Why was Minnie rude? |
34200 | Why? |
34200 | Would the peaked caps fall off? |
34200 | Would= you= leave all your clothes scattered on the floor for some one else to pick up, instead of folding them neatly yourself? |
34200 | Would= you= like to be a sluggard? |
34200 | Would= you= make all that fuss and trouble about shaking hands with any one? |
34200 | Write on Blackboard and let the children repeat the following:-- What is it to be rude? |
34200 | You have held the pretty buttercup under your chin to make it look yellow, but have you ever looked carefully at the shining petals of gold? |
34200 | You have often gathered buttercups and daisies, but have you ever gazed into the daisy''s yellow eye, and thought how wonderful it was? |
34200 | You have often played at keeping shop, have you not? |
34200 | You know that the country in which you live is an island? |
34200 | You know what that is, do you not? |
34200 | You remember Elinor, in Story Lesson 79, how she upset her tea, broke the vase, and spoilt the tablecloth, all for want of= care=? |
34200 | You remember who it was that said:"Will you walk into my parlour?" |
34200 | You would not call= those= brave children, would you? |
34200 | [ 7] Did you ever hear of a monkey having toothache? |
34200 | and do all of you keep your hands and faces clean? |
34200 | and do the boys like to have a clean collar and smooth hair? |
34200 | and have you noticed how the boys beat the poor things sometimes to make them go faster? |
34200 | could not they get a little boat and take Lewis to the steamer? |
34200 | or a little boy who screamed each time he had a tumble, although he might not be hurt in the least? |
34200 | or the sound made by the bow of the boat as it cuts through the water? |
34200 | or would you like another to have the trouble of putting away all your toys? |
34200 | said she,"what shall I do? |
34200 | what is this?" |
34200 | who thought that= they= knew best-- better than father or mother? |
34200 | you porter there, is my luggage all right?" |
6655 | A little more sideways, my boy,said Mr. Ellsworth;"turn this foot out a little; bend your fingers like this, see? |
6655 | Ai n''t he a rich guy? |
6655 | Ai n''t it after six? |
6655 | Ai n''t we goin''to have no eats? |
6655 | And a thief and a liar? |
6655 | And is he prepared to take the oath? |
6655 | And that the boy is a hoodlum? |
6655 | And the captain of the squad--"What squad? |
6655 | And this other boy? |
6655 | And what then? 6655 And who will care for him while you are gone?" |
6655 | Any one of you boys go''without warrant of law''? |
6655 | Are you going to try for it, Tom? |
6655 | Back to Bennett''s? 6655 But would it be a new one?" |
6655 | Ca n''t do it, eh? |
6655 | Ca n''t yer leave him go just this time? |
6655 | Ca n''t you see wot they''re a- doin''? |
6655 | Can I have my book? |
6655 | Can he answer? |
6655 | Can you beat it? |
6655 | Can you beat that valley for signalling? 6655 Can you beat the Snail Patrol?" |
6655 | Can you jump that hedge? |
6655 | Certainly; what for? |
6655 | Chucked? |
6655 | Come along, Tom,said the policeman;"in trouble again, eh?" |
6655 | Come on, you''re not in a hurry to get home, are you? 6655 Could n''t I give it to Mary?" |
6655 | Could n''t yer leave him come over jist till I make him a cup o''coffee? |
6655 | Cross your heart? |
6655 | D''yer see wot yer done? |
6655 | D''yer see wot yer done? |
6655 | Did I tell you it was a new one? |
6655 | Did he show you the Indian moccasins Julia made for him? |
6655 | Did they send you? |
6655 | Did you ever take a squint at that Handbook of his, Chief? |
6655 | Did you ever taste any of his biscuits? |
6655 | Did you notice how he said he was obeying the law? |
6655 | Did you notice, Chief( he often called the scoutmaster chief)"how he kept saying,''I am a scout''?" |
6655 | Did you_ ever_ in_ all_ your_ life_ know anything so perfectly extraordinary? |
6655 | Do I have ter be loyal ter him? |
6655 | Do I have to get arrested? |
6655 | Do I have to obey that one? |
6655 | Do about it? |
6655 | Do n''t you think those O''Connor boys would be better out here? |
6655 | Do you give your approval to everything? |
6655 | Do you know what I''m going to do with you? |
6655 | Do you know,said the capitalist, in a towering rage,"that this boy hurled a stone at me only a week ago?" |
6655 | Do you throw them at animals? |
6655 | Do you_ have_ to know? |
6655 | Does it mean anything? |
6655 | Don''de wind git on ye? |
6655 | Ever go scout''s pace? |
6655 | Excuse me, did you come from Bennett''s in Bridgeboro? |
6655 | Good,said the young man;"you have some ideas about sporting, have n''t you? |
6655 | Got something you want to say? |
6655 | Got the linen thread? |
6655 | Guess we did n''t swap names, did we? |
6655 | Has he made satisfactory proof of the tests? |
6655 | Have his parents been notified? |
6655 | Have n''t given up hope yet? |
6655 | Have you got a rope over there? |
6655 | Have you got him? |
6655 | He came, just as you----Oh, where is he? |
6655 | He wouldn'', wouldn''he? 6655 He''s a rich guy, ai n''t he?" |
6655 | He-- he wo n''t die-- will he? |
6655 | Hey, Tommy? |
6655 | Hmmm; ye got a young feller here by th''name o''Slade? |
6655 | How do you know what I took and what I tossed back? |
6655 | How do you know? |
6655 | How do you make those? |
6655 | How say you? 6655 How''s the Russian advance?" |
6655 | How''s the state of your constitution? |
6655 | I do not doubt it; and what are we going to do about it? |
6655 | I landed you, did n''t I? |
6655 | I s''pose if we was to search ye we would n''t find nothin''on ye t''should n''t be thar? |
6655 | I-- to blame? |
6655 | In a car? |
6655 | Is Camp Solitaire all right? |
6655 | Is he alive or dead? |
6655 | Is he dead, Tom? |
6655 | Is he worthy to be a member of our Troop? |
6655 | Is this it? |
6655 | Just caught the truth by the tail that time, did n''t you? |
6655 | Killed? |
6655 | Let''s see, what was I going to ask you? 6655 Like the Duke of Yorkshire, hey? |
6655 | Look up there, Mrs. Bennett-- see that nest? 6655 Mary thinks you snubbed her, Tom; why did n''t you speak to her?" |
6655 | Me? 6655 Na- ah, tick- tacks is out o''date,""Cord ter trip''em up?" |
6655 | No, we haven''t--"Got a shawl or a blanket? |
6655 | No-- really? |
6655 | No; the boys are boss; anything we can do for you? |
6655 | No? |
6655 | Nothing doing? |
6655 | Now Tom,said the Scoutmaster,"you and I are going to have a little pow- wow-- you know what a pow- wow is? |
6655 | O''Brien? |
6655 | Oh, Tom,said Mr. Ellsworth, his voice almost breaking,"is that all you have to say-- Tom?" |
6655 | Oh, are you the boss o''them regiment fellers? |
6655 | Oh, could n''t I, though? |
6655 | R. V., is n''t it? |
6655 | Re- what? |
6655 | Regular Carnegie Library, eh? 6655 Regular shark at it, is n''t he?" |
6655 | Shall I tell you what I''m going to say? |
6655 | Shall it be said that the Silver Foxes are not Sterling silver but only German silver? |
6655 | Shall the silver of the Silver Foxes be tarnished by that slanderous card? |
6655 | Sit down, wo n''t you? 6655 So? |
6655 | So? 6655 So? |
6655 | So? |
6655 | Some wrinkle, hey? |
6655 | Sure, we understand-- don''t we, Tom? |
6655 | Sure; did n''t yer see it? |
6655 | Tell him and spoil it fer him? |
6655 | Then if I took it out of the bank would it be the same bill? |
6655 | There,he added, handing back the coal,"that''s not so bad now; guess neither one of us is much of an artist, hey? |
6655 | They all have muskets, do they? |
6655 | This''ll be your first sleep outdoors, wo n''t it? 6655 Tick- tack?" |
6655 | Tom, is that you? |
6655 | Too bad his parents put him out, was n''t it? |
6655 | Too bad we had to sacrifice an innocent robin to find that out, was n''t it? |
6655 | Took what? |
6655 | Up? |
6655 | Veil, vot about him? |
6655 | Well then, was I lyin''? |
6655 | Well, Dan''s some boy, is n''t he? 6655 Well, anyway,"Roy said,"you can say you tossed it back, ca n''t you?" |
6655 | Well, then you think you would n''t like to kill Zulus, after all, hey? |
6655 | Well, you took it, did n''t you? |
6655 | Well,said Roy,"what can we do for you?" |
6655 | Westy? 6655 Wha''ose boss here?" |
6655 | Wha''ose runnin''the shebang? |
6655 | What are they all standing for? |
6655 | What are those? |
6655 | What are we going to catch, the three- thirty? |
6655 | What are you following me for? |
6655 | What are you going to do with that? |
6655 | What did I tell yer? |
6655 | What did she say? |
6655 | What do you mean by that? |
6655 | What do you think of Camp Solitaire? |
6655 | What do you think of the Eifel Tower? |
6655 | What for, Tom? |
6655 | What for? |
6655 | What for? |
6655 | What is it, Tom? |
6655 | What is that? |
6655 | What other thing? |
6655 | What pin? |
6655 | What right have_ you_ got to have rheumatism? 6655 What time did my mother say she''d be back?" |
6655 | What was it? |
6655 | What was that other thing she said? |
6655 | What was that other thing she said? |
6655 | What was that other thing she said? |
6655 | What were those signs I saw on the trees as I came? |
6655 | What''d you tell her? |
6655 | What''s a scout? 6655 What''s that shouting?" |
6655 | What''s that? |
6655 | What''s that? |
6655 | What''s that? |
6655 | What- what- did Mary say? |
6655 | What? |
6655 | When was that? |
6655 | When you was a kid? |
6655 | Where did Tom go? |
6655 | Where is it, do you suppose? |
6655 | Where is my boy? |
6655 | Where''ll I put the corner? |
6655 | Where''s Roy? |
6655 | Where''s his folks? |
6655 | Where''ve you got that, Tom? |
6655 | Which one is Westy? |
6655 | Who did you say was hurt? |
6655 | Who''s follerin''yer? |
6655 | Who''s he-- one o''your crowd? |
6655 | Who''s this fellow, Dan Dreadnought? |
6655 | Who''s up dere? |
6655 | Whom have you here? |
6655 | Why do n''t you eat a little something, Chief? |
6655 | Will you ever forget how he looked as he stood there? 6655 Will you promise to throw it back?" |
6655 | Will you promise to toss it back? |
6655 | Will you-- will you-- see my mother? |
6655 | Wop Joe''s around de corner wid his pushcart? 6655 Word and honor?" |
6655 | Wot are they doin''? |
6655 | Would he have two blankets over him at night? |
6655 | Would it pass for Test Eight? |
6655 | Would you take anything for a service? |
6655 | Wouldn''yer leave me pull my strap up? |
6655 | Ya''ou the boss here? |
6655 | Ya''ou the boss? |
6655 | Ye know a pin was missin''thar? |
6655 | Ye would n''t relish bein''searched, I reckon? |
6655 | Ye- re? |
6655 | Yer call me a liar, will ye? |
6655 | Yer live in de big house, don''cher? |
6655 | Yer mean ter tell me I''m lyin''? |
6655 | Yer one o''them soldier fellers, hey? |
6655 | Yer opened the winder, didn''yer? |
6655 | Yer think I''d steal? |

6655 | Yer what? |
6655 | Yer wouldn''squeal on yer father, would yer, Tommy? |
6655 | Yer-- a-- a one o''them soldier lads, hey, Tommy? |
6655 | Yes? 6655 Yes? |
6655 | Yes? |
6655 | You are not the Slade boy? |
6655 | You bathed it with carbolic, did you? |
6655 | You could lift the earth by leverage if you only had some floor for your lever; ever hear that? |
6655 | You did? |
6655 | You do n''t call murder wholesome pleasure, do you? |
6655 | You do n''t wish to see him privately, I suppose? |
6655 | You drop that? |
6655 | You find this law good? |
6655 | You find this law good? |
6655 | You find this law good? |
6655 | You have n''t made another flank move on Connie Bennett, have you? |
6655 | You saw me coming? |
6655 | You take the temperature of the river? |
6655 | _ Do I?_said Tom. |
6655 | _ Would I?_"Now we''ll rustle down the hill and see the bunch co''me back-- if they do. 6655 A soldier, like? |
6655 | And do n''t forget page-- what was it?" |
6655 | And what does Dan do to pass the time?" |
6655 | And why? |
6655 | Another boy came out and said_ he_ could jump the gap without any rope at all; it was only seven feet, and what was the use of a rope anyway? |
6655 | Are n''t you, dearie?" |
6655 | Are we going fishing to- day?" |
6655 | Because he knew it was right? |
6655 | Bennett?" |
6655 | Bennett?" |
6655 | Better be sure than be sorry-- hey? |
6655 | But would his hope be borne out? |
6655 | CHAPTER VI HITTING THE BULL''S EYE What did Tom Slade do after the best night''s sleep he ever had? |
6655 | Can yer beat it?" |
6655 | Did you hear that one he sprang the other night about a''superficial abrasion''? |
6655 | Did you notice his mouth? |
6655 | Do you know that this boy''s father owes me money?" |
6655 | Do you pull much of a stroke with Machelsa, the Indian spirit? |
6655 | Do you s''pose Westy''s home yet? |
6655 | Do you still think Walter Harris is a turtle? |
6655 | Does he really?" |
6655 | Does n''t it beat all how Doc gets onto this medical talk? |
6655 | Ellsworth?" |
6655 | Ever hear of him? |
6655 | Ever up on the hill?" |
6655 | Feeding with intent to kill, hey?" |
6655 | Guess you must have seen this light from downtown, hey?" |
6655 | He tiptoed to the stairs and listened,"Molly, is that you?" |
6655 | How about that, Doc?" |
6655 | How many of these books are there, Connie?" |
6655 | How would you like to be a scout, Connie?" |
6655 | I like one bill better, do n''t you?" |
6655 | I would n''t be surprised if I was cashier in his bank in another six months- but do n''t mention it at camp fire, will you?" |
6655 | Is he dead?" |
6655 | Is this applicant familiar with the law?" |
6655 | Like it strong? |
6655 | Like that name, Connie?" |
6655 | May I lift these books off the chair, Connie?" |
6655 | Never thought what you were up against to- night, did you? |
6655 | No? |
6655 | No? |
6655 | Oh, cracky, do n''t you hope they do?" |
6655 | Oh, yes; how''d you get hunk on John Temple?" |
6655 | Perhaps I should have--""And you are under the impression that this field belongs to my secretary?" |
6655 | Really?" |
6655 | Schmitt?" |
6655 | See that scratch?" |
6655 | See?" |
6655 | Shall this go on?" |
6655 | Shut up, will you?"'' |
6655 | Temple?" |
6655 | The Silver Fox patrol leader asked,"Do you promise to stand faithful to this emblem, and to these your brother scouts of the Silver Fox Patrol?" |
6655 | The boy laughed and asked,"What do you want the nickel for?" |
6655 | The question is, can you carry it?" |
6655 | Then raising his voice,"Someone drowned over there?" |
6655 | They played"Think of a Number,"and"Button, button, who''s got the button?" |
6655 | We''ll bring the sign up for a souvenir, what do you say?" |
6655 | Well, how about this boy?" |
6655 | What are they all about, Con?" |
6655 | What are we going to do?" |
6655 | What are you going to do?" |
6655 | What are_ you_ going to do?" |
6655 | What can I do for you?" |
6655 | What do you say?" |
6655 | What do you think?" |
6655 | What else_ can_ I do? |
6655 | What was it?" |
6655 | What''s that?" |
6655 | When I go into town I''ll put that five- spot in the bank for you, hey?" |
6655 | Where''s Roy?" |
6655 | Who stopped your runaway horse for you last week?" |
6655 | Why, Mrs. Bennett,"added the scoutmaster pleasantly,"you''ve hit the wrong trail--""I''ve what?" |
6655 | Will some gentleman in the audience kindly loan me a high hat and a ten- dollar gold piece? |
6655 | Will you be good enough to let me see your authority for the use of these grounds?" |
6655 | Would n''t you rather be here than at Conny''s party-- honest?" |
6655 | Would the Wizard Ellsworth indeed"get away with it,"and make a new man of poor, wretched Bill Slade? |
6655 | Yer do n''t do a thing but cop de car fer joy- rides-- didn''yer?" |
6655 | You know Westy Martin, do n''t you? |
6655 | You know we have troop calls and patrol calls and all sorts of calls, and we''ve got to be able to make them just right-- see?" |
6655 | You know what Buck Edwards said, do n''t you? |
6655 | You smoke, do n''t you?" |
6655 | [ Illustration:"CAN''T YOU SEE WHAT THEY''RE A- DOIN?" |
6655 | boys have got?" |
6655 | wot d''ye say we give him de spill?" |
19432 | As long as I steer clear of the law and avoid breaking my neck, what other consequences are there that I need to keep worrying about? 19432 But the first one of these seeds, or the first one of these trees-- who conceived and executed that?" |
19432 | But who conceived the plan of the trees and plants? |
19432 | But,say I,"are you sure you are not trying to befuddle me and befuddle yourself by the use of obscure words? |
19432 | But,say I,"what sublime intelligence conceived the plan of those machines, and what kind of sublimely skilful craftsman was able to fashion them?" |
19432 | But,some one objects,"how about your obligations to others? |
19432 | If this is the palpable intention and design of an all- wise Creator, how does it happen that so many human beings fail to carry out the purpose? 19432 Is that what is meant by soul and conscience and honor? |
19432 | Mother, where did I come from? 19432 What kind of punishment shall it be-- the fairest we can think of? |
19432 | What of that? 19432 Why should n''t I be a pleasure- seeker and a pleasure- lover? |
19432 | Why should n''t I go ahead and gratify all my impulses? |
19432 | A bird? |
19432 | A flower? |
19432 | A germ? |
19432 | A little scolding, perhaps, and a repetition of the warning and the promise? |
19432 | A spider? |
19432 | After all, looking at it from their point- of- view, and bearing in mind the freedom of the individual, why should n''t they? |
19432 | And after all, suppose he does happen to"get pinched,"what of it? |
19432 | And how do they do it? |
19432 | And what of the rôle of a father in this most vital of responsibilities? |
19432 | And who made all these other people? |
19432 | And who''s really to blame? |
19432 | Are n''t you just a little bit ashamed of what you did to Delia?" |
19432 | Are these other things more important than the welfare of their children? |
19432 | Are they exercised to the same extent? |
19432 | Are things going on indefinitely, this way,--or more so? |
19432 | As I was not concerned in it, I can not be held accountable, so what difference does it make to me? |
19432 | As a matter of fact, how severe and accurate a test have either of those devotions been submitted to? |
19432 | As far as his own experience is concerned, where is the reason for him to deny his impulse? |
19432 | As for the danger, who''s afraid of that? |
19432 | Because I happen to know that he was innocent, does that make the occurrence any less reasonable? |
19432 | Because certain individuals are born blind or deaf, does that imply that mankind was not designed to see or hear? |
19432 | Because certain individuals, through the effects of disease or abuse, lose their sight, does that disprove a purpose for the eye? |
19432 | Between these two contradictory principles, even if she has the best intentions in the world, what is she to do? |
19432 | But as this also is no haven of refuge for the vague feelings of faith and aspiration, where are they to go? |
19432 | But even so, and admitting what is apparently obvious, how could any amount of reasoning arrive at a decision in the matter? |
19432 | But even so, how could they come to do such a thing? |
19432 | But how about the feelings of admiration and enthusiasm which works of such great beauty were intended to inspire? |
19432 | But if you believe in doing what you feel like and the doctor is out of the way, why not have your beef- steak? |
19432 | But might n''t it be counted in your favor-- over there? |
19432 | But suppose it might be that after death their spirits could live on, in an unknown world? |
19432 | But what of the Jake, in this case-- the prime factor of the problem? |
19432 | But what of the children? |
19432 | Do n''t modern mothers love their children? |
19432 | Do n''t you know in your heart that this would be wrong-- very wrong? |
19432 | Do not the divorce courts and remarriages and scattered children and the talk and acts of emancipated women give ample evidence of it? |
19432 | Do we measure the achievements of a Napoleon, an Alexander, a Washington, by the manner of their decline and death? |
19432 | Does any one claim, or imagine, that school- books contain much nourishment for the heart and soul, or the moral feelings, or love of beauty? |
19432 | Does father have to know about that, yet?" |
19432 | Does he work any harder than I do? |
19432 | Does it make any difference to him whether he breaks a promise-- to his mother and father? |
19432 | Does not each individual feel moved to accomplish something beyond the mere continuation of life? |
19432 | Does not that same observation apply to the general and to all other individuals, high or low? |
19432 | Does she wish them to be liars and cheats and ingrates, dissipated and corrupt, if by so doing they can have most pleasure and satisfy themselves? |
