10859''And can you now leave us?'' 10859 ''But what,''said he,''do you understand by virtue?''
10859''But, my dear friend,''I answered,''have you not told me that you are not of noble birth?'' 10859 But why should I continue any longer the recital of this history?
10859Meanwhile Margaret said to Madame de la Tour,''Why do we not unite our children by marriage? 10859 ''What is become of the time,''said he,''when I used to carry you both together in my arms? 10859 ''When will you come to see us?'' 10859 ''Why,''answered Paul,''why can not I give you something which belongs to heaven? 10859 --''What shall we do then?'' 10859 And why deplore the fate of Virginia? 10859 And will it not be more agreeable to return and find it in your own country?'' 10859 Are we then so near home? 10859 As soon as Madame de la Tour saw me coming, she eagerly cried,''Where is my child, my dear child?'' 10859 As soon as he perceived her, he called to her from a distance,''Where is Virginia?'' 10859 But how shall I repeat her answer? 10859 But is there in that external deference which fortune commands a compensation for domestic happiness? 10859 But might not this very object, from whom you expected the purest happiness, have proved to you a source of the most cruel distress? 10859 But where will you go in order to be happier? 10859 Does no soft instinct in thy soul prevail? 10859 Encouraged by this mark of confidence, I thus addressed him:--Father, can you tell me to whom those cottages once belonged?"
10859Hark?
10859Has God then forsaken us?
10859Have we not hitherto been happy?
10859He said to the goats and their kids which followed him, bleating,''What do you ask of me?
10859How will you bear to live without your mother''s caresses, to which you are so accustomed?
10859If I should die, what will become of you, without fortune, in the midst of these deserts?
10859Is it by your caresses?
10859Is it by your wisdom?
10859Is it not to acquire a fortune?
10859Is there any commerce more advantageous than the culture of the ground, which yields sometimes fifty or a hundred fold?
10859Is there any fortune worthy of your friendship?
10859Margaret cried,''Where is my son?
10859No sweet affection to thy bosom cling, And bid thee oft thy absent nest bewail?
10859O''er Trackless oceans what impels thy wing?
10859On what shore will you land which will be dearer to you than the spot which gave you birth?
10859Only when a traveller on the road of the Shaddock Grove inquired of any of the inhabitants of the plain,''Who lives in those two cottages above?''
10859Paul rushed towards the sea, when, seizing him by the arm, I exclaimed,''Would you perish?''
10859Scarcely had she finished, when Margaret exclaimed,''What have we to do with your relations?
10859Scarcely had they begun to ascend, when they heard voices crying out,''Is it you, my children?''
10859She often said to me,''If I should die, what will become of Virginia without fortune?''
10859Surely the sight of you will touch him with pity.--Will you show me the way?''
10859Tell me by what charm you have so enchanted me?
10859Upon this, Paul said to the governor,''My mother did, address herself to you, Sir, and you received her ill.''--''Have you another child, Madam?
10859We ran towards him, and Madame de la Tour said to him,''My son, if you go, what will become of us?''
10859What European can picture happiness to his imagination amidst poverty and neglect?
10859What anger can resist her tears?
10859What brow is not unbent by her smiles?
10859What do you deplore with so much bitterness?
10859What joy is not heightened in which she shares?
10859What need has she of a rich relation?
10859What will become of my mother who loves you with the same affection?
10859When I inquired of Paul, while we wandered amidst the plains of Williams,''Where are we now going?''
10859When I shall gaze on the two palm trees, planted at our birth, and so long the witnesses of our mutual friendship?
10859Where will you find a society more interesting to you than this by which you are so beloved?
10859Wherefore do we come to these islands?
10859Why do you go so far, and climb so high, to seek fruits and flowers for me?
10859Why do you talk to me of your birth?
10859Why gild the charms of friendship and of love With the warm glow of fancy''s purple flame?
10859Why then this regret?
10859Will he prevent me from flinging myself into the sea?
10859Will he prevent me from following her by swimming?
10859Your own misfortunes, or those of Virginia?
10859answered Virginia,''with that great wicked man?
10859at the foot of our own mountain?
10859cried Madame de la Tour,''from whence do you come?
10859if it were again possible to give me a brother, should I make choice of any other than you?
10859no more I blame: Why do my thoughts''midst vain illusions rove?
10859what language can describe those shores of eternal bliss which I inhabit for ever?
10859will you let me go and ask forgiveness for you of your master?
38279And what did ye do, Bill?
38279Be ye drunk, or be ye sober, that ye stand there shoutin''in the cold with a log cabin within a dozen rods of ye?
38279Ca n''t I have just a little more to eat?
38279Do you think so?
38279How could I see to steer if I was sitting right back of you? 38279 I say, old Trapper,"he called from under the table,"did both guns go off?
38279Mother,said one of the girls, speaking out of the darkness,--"mother, is n''t this Christmas Eve?"
38279Swing around? 38279 What did ye do when ye got to the top?"
38279What is it, Wild Bill? 38279 A goodly table, a goodly fire, and a goodly company,--what more could the Angel of Christmas ask to see? 38279 And were those two strangers there men, or were they angels? 38279 But be ye sartin, Bill, that ye can fetch round that stump there as it orter be did, with nothin''but yer toe out behind? 38279 But ef ye be sober, why do ye stand there whoopin''like an Indian, when the ambushment is onkivered and the bushes be alive with the knaves? 38279 But the silence of our happiness, who can describe that? 38279 But where be yer mother?
38279But ye got her up finally by the same path, did n''t ye?"
38279Did Wild Bill recall his wayward past?
38279Did he, having come so tantalizingly near, retrace his steps?
38279Did n''t ye git a leetle''arnest in yer feelin''s, Bill, afore ye got to the top of the last ridge?"
38279Did the Trapper at that brief moment visit his absent friend?
38279Did the buck turn?
38279Had Heaven heard her prayer?
38279Had he scented her presence, and would he bound away?
38279How do ye feel, Bill, how do ye feel?"
38279I say, Bill, what p''int will ye steer fur?"
38279I say, had n''t you better get behind the wood- pile again?"
38279I wonder if he''s been waiting for me to get just where I am before he helped me?
38279Is it because we are so small, or, being small, are so inquisitive, that the Great Oracle of the blue remains so dumb when we cry?
38279Is it best, I wonder?
38279John Norton, are you ready?"
38279Should she fire now?
38279The buck would soon move; when he moved, which way would he move?
38279Was it memory?
38279Was it not white and clean and properly shaped, and would it not have been a tablecloth if it had n''t been a sheet?
38279Was it work or vain waiting for happier fortunes that made her look so tired?
38279Was she dreaming?
38279Was that the same fireplace in front of whose cold and cheerless recess she had crouched the night before?
38279Was this cabin the miserable hut she had left at daybreak?
38279Was what she saw real, or was it only a fevered vision born of her weakness?
38279Were the thoughts of the woman busy with sweet scenes of earlier days?
38279What angel was it that followed her to her miserable couch, and stirred kindly feelings in her bosom?
38279What bosom is without its little vanities?
38279What higher praise could be bestowed?
38279What if it should prove a failure?
38279What if it was n''t done through, and should turn out pasty?
38279What if she had made a miscalculation as to the amount of suet required,--a point upon which she had been somewhat confused?
38279What if the raisins were not sufficiently distributed?
38279What load have ye been draggin''through the woods?"
38279Who says the earth can not look as cold and forbidding as the human countenance?
38279Why do n''t ye come into the cabin, like a sensible man, ef ye be sober?
38279Would he go from or come toward her?
38279Would she get him, or would she lose him?
38279[ Illustration: The deer came to the big maple] Had the frosty air watered her eye?
38279exclaimed the Trapper,"what''s this?"
38279or were the half- frozen fingers unable to steady the cold barrel at the instant of its explosion?
38279thou tuneful bell that ringeth on forever, friend at our feasts, and friend, too, let us call thee, at our burial, what music can equal thine?
38279was it a tear of joy and gratitude that dimmed the clearness of its sight?
38279what is it?"
38279what shall I do?
38279what will the poor woman say when she and her leetle uns git these warm garments on?
38279ye do n''t mean to steer this sled with one toe, do ye, and that, too, the length of a rifle- barrel astarn?
23195Always?
23195And you are_ sure_ that you''ll come too?
23195Are you quite certain?
23195Are you worse?
23195As good as you?
23195Baptize him_ how_?
23195But now, Wikkey, shall I read you a story about the King?
23195By- the- by, Wikkey, have you recollected your own other name?
23195Did He live in London?
23195Did you often cheat Jim?
23195Do you know what her name was before she was married?
23195Do you remember your father and mother?
23195Granby, do you mean?
23195How do you know all about the King, Lawrence?
23195How long will it be?
23195I?
23195Is anythink amiss, Lawrence?
23195Is he good?
23195Lawrence, why did He let them do it? 23195 Must I like everythink as you like?"
23195Should he send Wikkey to the workhouse? 23195 Should you like to come now, Lawrence?"
23195Talk like that of_ him_?
23195Think? 23195 Was it to make game of Him?"
23195Well,he said,"so this is Wikkey; how are you getting on, Wikkey?"
23195What did the other chap call you?
23195What does it mean-- See the King?
23195What is it, Wikkey boy?
23195Where is He?
23195Why do you like the look of me?
23195Why must n''t you what?
23195Wikkey,said Lawrence again, after a silence,"what made you take a fancy to me?"
23195Wikkey? 23195 ( Was she also making her protest on the side of common sense against a lurking desire to keep Wikkey?) 23195 (''_ How_ used?'' 23195 Can you gather any meaning from this rough outline? 23195 Do you remember the missel- thrush in the apple- tree?
23195Do you see anything?"
23195Do you think He was a bit like you?"
23195Do you think he has n''t been christened?"
23195Granby?"
23195Have you ever heard of God, Wikkey?"
23195Have you ever seen a Bible?"
23195He looks very sorrowful-- a deal sorrowfuller nor you-- and what is that He has on His Head?"
23195He staggered to his feet and gasped out:"You''ve come, have you?
23195How should he decide?"
23195I know as I''m going to die; but will it be soon?
23195I wonder if anything could be learnt by going down to the place named in the book?"
23195I wonder when I last saw a nest?"
23195I_ do n''t_ want for to leave you, Lawrence-- won''t you come, too?"
23195If He could do anything, why did n''t He save Himself from the enemies?"
23195Is it Someone as you love?"
23195Is n''t it a beauty?
23195Is that all?"
23195It will be beautiful to see the King, wo n''t it?"
23195Presently the high voice spoke again--"Why must n''t I, guvner?"
23195There was a silence, and then Lawrence said--"Ought he to be told?"
23195Was he gone?
23195Was it his duty to inculcate a proper respect for his betters into this boy?
23195Well,"he said, as they entered the sitting- room,"what do you think of him?"
23195What am I to begin with?"
23195What do you think of a tearful grandmother haunting the place?"
23195What should he do with a boy dying in the house?
23195What''s to be done?"
23195What''s your name?"
23195What_ was_ his feeling towards the Christ?
23195Where is he?"
23195You-- you have n''t been watching for me like this?"
23195he''s a swell, is he?
23195mentally ejaculated Lawrence;''what does he mean?
23195might that not account for Wikkey''s odd name?
23195must it be directly?"
9402Ah, how does thee do?
9402And does the Bible teach you to flatter people with your tongue, while you are laughing at them in your sleeves?
9402And if your little baby dies, Mrs. Graffam,said Eddy,"he will be a flower in God''s garden; wo n''t he, Mary?"
9402And pray, how is your dear little babe, sir?
9402And who is to be the judge of our thoughts,asked Fanny,"whether they be right or wrong?"
9402Are any more of my friends here?
9402Are you?
9402But how can I have you go away alone to read your Bible, and think sadly of-- being so weak?
9402Can it be,thought the fallen man,"that I am still_ Mr._, or are they mocking me?"
9402Can thee respect a drunkard, Emma?
9402Emma,said he,"what would thee do for Peter and his family?
9402Has thee been long out of health?
9402How do you do, Willie?
9402How is your babe this morning?
9402How she could be extremely glad to see people who, she said, were''bores, and not to be endured?''
9402How would charity act toward a person whose manners are extremely rude?
9402I guess so,was the reply;"but----""But what, Willie?"
9402I know it,replied Emma;"but need he be lost, sir?
9402Is it very heavy?
9402O,thought Emma, as she looked after him,"is there none to help?
9402Of what are you thinking, Dora?
9402Perhaps not,was the reply;"I suppose your profits are enough to hire it done; but here is a shawl,--what is the price of it?"
9402Shall we call at''Appledale?''
9402Thee looks delicate,said the old man;"what shall I give thee to eat, Emma?"
9402Thee looks tired, Sarah; where are the girls?
9402Thee means Peter, who lives upon the plains?
9402Was it?
9402We shall, Eddy, if we are like----"Like Jesus?
9402What can she think?
9402What do you suppose,continued Emma,"is meant by the sincere milk of the word?"
9402What does thee think of that child, Sarah?
9402What else have you?
9402What is the use of this dreadful struggle?
9402What shall I call thy name?
9402When did she die?
9402Where are you going, Mary Palmer?
9402Why it was more impolite to tell people what was foolish in their appearance, than to laugh about this appearance in their absence?
9402Why, who is Emma flying to see?
9402You know Mr. Graffam, sir?
9402You will come and see me again, wo n''t you?
9402And why so sad?
9402But now, whence came the wonderful beauty of the widespread landscape?
9402Can I aid thee in any way?"
9402Come, Susan, thee ought to be helping thy mother these hot days; but who is this friend?"
9402Do you hear the drum?"
9402Dora felt, as many under similar circumstances have felt, the earnest question pressing upon her heart:"Who is sufficient for these things?"
9402Feel sober after your last night''s high, eh?"
9402Friend Sliver laid down his hoe, and coming up to the wall, asked,"What is it, child?"
9402Graffam?"
9402Graffam?"
9402Graffam?"
9402He has a wife and four pretty children; ca n''t he be saved?"
9402Is it not so?"
9402O, would n''t it be delightful?"
9402Was it just to be polite?"
9402What have they been doing for her?
9402What say you, Fanny Brighton?"
9402What spirit possesses the human heart, when it shows a disposition to make others uncomfortable?
9402Who has not entertained this uninvited guest?
9402Why does he want to hurt folks''feelings?
9402You read the Bible, Ma--,--I mean Miss Palmer?"
9402You will not have me deceived, mamma?"
9402You would not have had me say so; but these were my feelings; so what am I to do?"
9402and yet what is gained?
9402are they not, Mary Palmer?"
2127And can you now leave us?
2127But might not this very object, from whom you expected the purest happiness, have proved to you a source of the most cruel distress? 2127 Unhappy children,"cried Madame de la Tour,"where have you been?
2127When will you come and see us?
2127--"Why,"answered Paul,"can not I give you something that belongs to Heaven?
2127After this, who will dare to flatter himself that any thing he can write will be of service to his fellow men?
2127And will it not be more agreeable to return and find it in your own country?"
2127Are we then so near home?--at the foot of our own mountain?"
2127As soon as Madame de la Tour saw me coming, she eagerly cried,--"Where is my daughter-- my dear daughter-- my child?"
2127As soon as he perceived her, he called to her from a distance,--"Where is Virginia?"
2127As soon as they began to ascend, they heard voices exclaiming--"Is it you, my children?"
2127Before we were born into this world, could we, do you imagine, even if we were capable of thinking at all, have formed any idea of our existence here?
2127But can you, who know so much, tell me whether we shall ever be married?
2127But is there, in that external deference which fortune commands, a compensation for domestic happiness?
2127But where can you go to be happier?
2127But why do you wish to be distinguished from other men?
2127But why should I continue any longer to you the recital of this history?
2127By the_ Moniteur_ of the day, these works were compared to the celebrated pamphlet of Sieyes,--"Qu''est- ce que le tiers etat?"
2127Can any fortune be equal to your friendship?
2127Do you remember the day when we crossed over the great stones of the river of the Three Breasts?
2127Do you then believe that he would leave Virginia without recompense?
2127Encouraged by this mark of confidence I thus addressed him:"Father, can you tell me to whom those cottages once belonged?"
2127Has God then forsaken us?
2127Has He occasion to employ visible means to effect His purpose in this, whose ways are hidden in all His ordinary works?
2127Have we not enough in our garden already?
2127Have we not hitherto been happy?
2127He said to the goats, and their little ones, which followed him, bleating,--"What do you want of me?
2127If I should die what would become of you, without fortune, in the midst of these deserts?
2127If we wish to engage in commerce, can we not do so by carrying our superfluities to the town without my wandering to the Indies?
2127Is it not to acquire a fortune?
2127Is it then the calamity of Virginia-- her death and her present condition that you deplore?
2127Is it your own misfortunes, or those of Virginia, which affect you so deeply?
2127Is there any commerce in the world more advantageous than the culture of the ground, which yields sometimes fifty or a hundred- fold?
2127It was your wish, then, by concealing the truth to stimulate my ardour?
2127Margaret cried,"Where is my son?
2127Meanwhile Margaret said to Madame de la Tour,"Why do we not unite our children by marriage?
2127Paul rushed forward to throw himself into the sea, when, seizing him by the arm,"My son,"I exclaimed,"would you perish?"
2127Scarcely had she finished, when Margaret exclaimed,"What have we to do with your relations?
2127She often said to me,"If I were to die, what would become of Virginia without fortune?"
2127So, when I inquired of Paul, as we wandered amidst the plains of Williams,--"Where shall we now go?"
2127The passer- by on the road to Shaddock Grove, indeed, would sometimes ask the inhabitants of the plain, who lived in the cottages up there?
2127Upon this Paul said to the governor,--"My mother did apply to you, sir, and you received her ill."--"Have you another child, madam?"
2127We all ran towards him; and Madame de la Tour said to him,"My son, if you go, what will become of us?"
2127What European can picture happiness to his imagination amidst poverty and neglect?
2127What anger can resist her tears?
2127What brow is not unbent by her smiles?
2127What do you deplore with so much bitterness?
2127What joy is not heightened when it is shared by her?
2127What need has she of a rich relation?
2127What need, indeed, had these young people of riches or learning such as ours?
2127What shall I say to comfort them when I see them weeping for your absence?
2127What will become of my mother, who loves you with the same affection?
2127Wherefore do we come to these islands?
2127Why do you go so far, and climb so high, to seek fruits and flowers for me?
2127Why do you talk about your birth?
2127Why should we doubt the evidence of dreams?
2127Why then this regret?
2127Will he prevent me from flinging myself into the sea?--will he prevent me from following her by swimming?
2127Will you show me the way?"
2127You do not fear then to encounter the danger of the sea, at the sight of which you are so much terrified?"
2127You were opposed to it, it is true; but who would not have thought that Virginia''s voyage would terminate in her happiness and your own?
2127_ Paul._--But do you think that the women of Europe are false, as they are represented in the comedies and books which you have lent me?
2127_ Paul._--But where is the necessity of being rich in order to marry?
2127_ Paul._--But why not work?
2127_ Paul._--In what way can men tyrannize over women?
2127_ Paul._--What do you understand by virtue?
2127_ Paul._--Why not join together those who are suited to each other,--the young to the young, and lovers to those they love?
2127_ The Old Man._--But, my dear friend, have not you told me that you are not of noble birth?
2127_ The Old Man._--You will act then like other men?--you will renounce your conscience to obtain a fortune?
2127answered Virginia,"with that great wicked man?
2127do you mean to say that the art which furnishes food for mankind is despised in Europe?
2127for what is our life, occupied as it is with vain and fleeting imaginations, other than a prolonged vision of the night?
2127if it were possible for me still to have a brother, should I make choice of any other than you?
2127is there no supreme intelligence, no divine goodness, except on this little spot where we are placed?
2127would you leave her mother and yours?
28098And what did he do when the fifth needle broke?
28098And what did ye do, Bill?
28098Be ye drunk, or be ye sober, that ye stand there shoutin''in the cold with a log cabin within a dozen rods of ye?
28098But what have ye in the box,--bird, beast, or fish, Bill?
28098Ca n''t I have just a little more to eat?
28098Do you know it, know it to a certainty?
28098Do you know that I am a thief, and a sneak thief at that?
28098Do you know that I have stolen skins from you, old man, skins and traps both?
28098Do you think so?
28098Do you think there is any chance, old man?
28098Heavens and''arth, Bill, why do ye ax sech foolish questions? 28098 How could I see to steer if I was sitting right back of you?
28098I say, Old Trapper,he called from under the table,"did both guns go off?
28098If there is any such influence at work in this world as the preachers tell of, why has it not prevented me from being a thief? 28098 Is yer ladle well placed, Bill?
28098Mother,said one of the girls, speaking out of the darkness,--"mother, is n''t this Christmas Eve?"
28098Swing around? 28098 What did ye do when ye got to the top?"
28098What have ye in the box, Bill?
28098What is it, Wild Bill? 28098 What shall I do, John Norton?
28098Where do you think they''ll fetch up, John Norton?
28098Why did n''t you shoot me when I stood skin in hand?
28098You do n''t think I would come to your cabin to- day and not bring a present, do you?
28098A goodly table, a goodly fire, and a goodly company,--what more could the Angel of Christmas ask to see?
28098And after a moment, he asked, sympathetically:--"How far did ye sled them pigs, Bill?"
28098And were those two strangers there men, or were they angels?
28098But a man ca n''t stand everything, ef he be a Christian man and workin''away to git a Christmas sign ready; can he, Bill?"
28098But be ye sartin, Bill, that ye can fetch round that stump there as it orter be did, with nothin''but yer toe out behind?
28098But ef ye be sober, why do ye stand there whoopin''like an Indian, when the ambushment is onkivered and the bushes be alive with the knaves?
28098But how are we to give him a Christmas dinner onless we give him an invite to it?
28098But the silence of our happiness, who can describe that?
28098But where be yer mother?"
28098But ye got her up finally by the same path, did n''t ye?"
28098Did Wild Bill recall his wayward past?
28098Did he, having come so tantalizingly near, retrace his steps?
28098Did n''t ye git a leetle''arnest in yer feelin''s, Bill, afore ye got to the top of the last ridge?"
28098Did the Trapper at that brief moment visit his absent friend?
28098Did the buck turn?
28098Had Heaven heard her prayer?
28098Had he scented her presence, and would he bound away?
28098Had the frosty air watered her eye?
28098Has Nature knowledge?
28098Have ye got it in the center of the lid?"
28098How do ye feel, Bill, how do ye feel?"
28098I say, Bill, what p''int will ye steer fur?"
28098I say, had n''t you better get behind the wood- pile again?"
28098Is it because we are so small, or, being small, are so inquisitive, that the Great Oracle of the blue remains so dumb when we cry?
28098Is it best, I wonder?
28098Is she conscious of the evil and the good among men, and has she a heart that saddens at their sorrow and rejoices in their joy?
28098John Norton, are you ready?"
28098Should she fire now?
28098Suddenly the Trapper lifted himself on his couch, and, looking over toward his companion, said:--"Bill, did n''t ye hear the bells ring?"
28098The buck would soon move; when he moved, which way would he move?
28098Was it memory?
28098Was it not white and clean and properly shaped, and would it not have been a tablecloth if it had n''t been a sheet?
28098Was it work or vain waiting for happier fortunes that made her look so tired?
28098Was she dreaming?
28098Was that the same fireplace in front of whose cold and cheerless recess she had crouched the night before?
28098Was this cabin the miserable hut she had left at daybreak?
28098Was what she saw real, or was it only a fevered vision born of her weakness?
28098Were the thoughts of the woman busy with sweet scenes of earlier days?
28098What angel was it that followed her to her miserable couch, and stirred kindly feelings in her bosom?
28098What bosom is without its little vanities?
28098What higher praise could be bestowed?
28098What if it should prove a failure?
28098What if it was n''t done through, and should turn out pasty?
28098What if she had made a miscalculation as to the amount of suet required,--a point upon which she had been somewhat confused?
28098What if the raisins were not sufficiently distributed?
28098What load have ye been draggin''through the woods?"
28098What shall I do?
28098What were Christmas and its cheer to them?
28098What were gifts and giving, or who would spread for them a full table at which as guests of honor they might eat and be merry?
28098Who could describe it?
28098Who says the earth can not look as cold and forbidding as the human countenance?
28098Who shall read the riddle, O man of whitened head, O woman whose life is but a memory, who shall read us the Trapper''s riddle, I say?
28098Who shall read us the riddle of the ordering in this world?
28098Why did it not prevent me from doing what I did and being what I was in my youth,--me, whose mother was an angel and whose father was a patriarch?
28098Why do n''t ye come into the cabin, like a sensible man, ef ye be sober?
28098Would he go from or come toward her?
28098Would she get him, or would she lose him?
28098[ Illustration:"Where be the ships?"]
28098exclaimed the Trapper,"what''s this?"
28098or were the half- frozen fingers unable to steady the cold barrel at the instant of its explosion?
28098thou tuneful bell that ringeth on forever, friend at our feasts, and friend, too, let us call thee, at our burial, what music can equal thine?
28098was it a tear of joy and gratitude that dimmed the clearness of its sight?
28098what is it?"
28098what shall I do?
28098what_ will_ the poor woman say when she and her leetle uns git these warm garments on?
28098ye do n''t mean to steer this sled with one toe, do ye, and that, too, the length of a rifle- barrel astarn?
59654Are they not as pretty?
59654And how is this to be done?
59654And if some of you went there to give what little of leisure, what little of strength, you have to spare, would your own neighbourhood suffer?
59654And is our money doing any good?
59654And yet the problem has become appalling, gigantic: viewed in its entirety, it might make us almost tremble?
59654Are the old words,"Bear ye one another''s burdens,"to pass away with the day of coal- tickets?
59654Are there no eternal laws binding us to charitable spirit and deed?
59654Are there no improved public- houses, no improved theatres, no better machinery for collecting savings, which we may establish and give our money to?
59654Are there no men of leisure, with intellect and heart, who will come forward?
59654Are there no places to plant with trees, no buildings to erect, no libraries to found, no scholarships to endow?
59654Are there no voices still speaking in our hearts the old commandment,"Love one another?"
59654Are they, too, valueless because so nameless?
59654Are those who own estates to have their gardens, and the people to have none?
59654Are we as a nation to have any flower- garden at all?
59654Are we going to look out and up, but never down?
59654Are we in turn never to be pioneers?
59654Are we not most likely to be away?
59654Because we went in and gave those boots, because others like us gave coal- tickets and soup- tickets last winter, what may not turn up?
59654But do we not owe this to the efforts of a body of men in earlier time who were content to lose money in experiments and example?
59654But how do the better ones feel it?
59654But is it not strange to take away free enjoyment from many, and to offer in exchange, at any money payment, a privilege to the few?
59654But, I ask, where are the donors?
59654Can there be energy, independence, vigour, healthy activity among them?
59654Can we afford it?
59654Can you give him a little pause, a little more room, especially this sultry summer afternoon?
59654Did you ever see the district-- the family-- the individual that was richer for this repeated alms- giving?
59654Do they not lead him to trust to them, to spend up to the last penny what he earns, and hope for help when work slackens or altogether fails?
59654Do they not often succeed worse?
59654Do they not scorn them, and desire to be seen to benefit nothing by them?
59654Do they succeed better than the clergy and the visitors?
59654Do we care to set aside ground for it, or will we have beet- root and cabbages only?
59654Do you know what I mean?
59654Do you realise how limited is our notion of it now, and what it has brought us to?
59654Do you think that, be our earnings much or little, that kind of help would be likely to be helpful?
59654Does he try, cost what it may, to provide for sickness, for times when trade is dull and employment scarce?
59654Does this imply no duty?
59654For what is it that we look forward to as our people gradually improve?
59654Has it ever been powerful, even for outside good, to be recipients?
59654Have any of you influence with them, or can anything be done?
59654Have most gentlemen any idea how much this work needs doing in the poor districts of London?
59654Have n''t I myself such a body of fellow- workers as makes me hardly know how to be thankful enough?
59654Have n''t your gifts absolutely tended to alienate them from churches and chapels?
59654Have the words,"Ye are members one of another,"ceased to be true because our tract and dole distribution has broken down?
59654Have we no bright flowers to take to the people, no books to lend, no sweet sympathy and young brightness to carry among them?
59654Have we not a most distinct place among the poor, if this be so?
59654Have you asked yourselves whether your presence, your companionship, is needed there?
59654I do n''t like to be enjoying myself at garden- parties with my wife and daughter and not consider my poorer neighbours"?
59654I wonder whether you have among you instances of the solitary, inexperienced district visitor, and can feel for her difficulties?
59654If the allotments are not made now we may still hope for them in the future; but if we lose our open spaces now, shall we ever recover them?
59654If the question, Who is my neighbour?
59654In other words, is all the land, so far as the people are concerned, from sea to sea, to be used for corn- growing, or building over only?
59654Is it best to let the largest possible amount of it in allotments to the poor?
59654Is it best to parcel it out amongst various owners, and increase the building or corn- growing area?
59654Is it impossible, I would ask lawyers and statesmen, to recognise this right as a legal one acquired by custom, and not to be taken away?
59654Is it not pleasant to think of the children having those words to read-- painted in pretty colours, too-- rather than looking at a blank wall?
59654Is it the children whose parents take them to the sea, or the country, or the Continent, when the summer sun makes London unbearable?
59654Is not our very presence a help to them?
59654Is the bed better covered in the long run for the lent blankets, or the children better fed for the free distribution of soup?
59654Is the influence of such doles so healthy that we should wish to see them taking the place of a Common right over a little bit of English soil?
59654Is the influence of the rich and powerful so slight that we should let it be thus silently strengthened?
59654Is there only land enough for exercise near the big city, or can we have any for beauty far away from it?
59654Is this the lesson our workmen are to learn?
59654Is your bright young presence not asked for by the gray, monotonous, slowly- ebbing life of those wards?
59654It may be there are a few spaces unbuilt over close by, but who will open the gates for them, plant a few flowers, put a few seats?
59654It seems almost incredible, does it not?
59654Let us imagine that in another case we give to a man whose income is small; what is the effect on his character of these irregular doles?
59654My friends, who made it different?
59654Now, have you ever paused to think what Londoners would do without this holiday, or what it would be without these open spaces?
59654On whom does the continuous watchfulness devolve at best?
59654Or is it not rather the tiny child of the hard- working widow, whose frail form seems almost to grow smaller year by year instead of larger?
59654Or is it, as of old, to go forth and gather in the feeble, the out- of- the- way, the poor?
59654Ought we not to be accumulating those memories which will give us a place near them as real friends if the time of loss and trial comes?
59654Respect its claims; but are there no times when it may be worth while to make a change in work, even if it cause one to see less of friends?
59654Shall we doubt it?
59654Should not the few spaces be available for these latter to the very utmost of your power?
59654Should we stand by, we who ought to see farther, and let them part with what ought to be a possession to the many in the future?
59654Specially what is the duty of those of us who are, in any sense of the word, trustees of charitable funds?
59654The clergy?
59654The district visitors?
59654What can they do?
59654What form, then, shall our charity take in the immediate future?
59654What is our duty with regard to it?
59654What is to be the ultimate object of your decisions respecting relief?
59654What kind of homes they make?
59654What ought its decision to be, having in view the future life of the nation as well as the present one?
59654What sort of human beings live and die there?
59654Where are the representatives of the various relieving agencies?
59654Whether the little children want your teaching?
59654Whether your gentleness, your refinement, your gaiety, your beauty, are wanted there?
59654Why should the lord absorb to himself alone the"unearned increment of the land?"
59654Why, then, am I here?
59654With the small holdings, is there to pass away from our people the sense that they have any share in the soil of their native England?
59654With these forms are we to let charity itself pass?
59654Yet though we have by our gifts encouraged him in not making the effort to do this, are we quite sure to be at hand when the need comes?
59654You who are merchants''wives and daughters, nay, even those of you who buy the merchants''goods, have the dock- labourers no claims upon you?
59654or, if any, how many and how pretty may they be?
43697''But what shall we do?'' 43697 ''Lost, eh?''
43697''Not a bit of it,''said Robert, laughing;''did you never see a cat go to meeting before? 43697 And I ought to call him neffy John, or Johnny, for short, ought n''t I?
43697And Wildfire,--where was Wildfire?
43697And pray,said the farmer''s wife,"what do you consider_ me_, Milly, if not a friend?
43697And what''s that?
43697And you''ve got enough money, Comfort?
43697Are you afraid, Nell?
43697Are you?
43697But who would think of sending their children to us, when there are already two or three other schools in the village?
43697But why whack such a little critter as you be, Nell?
43697Ca n''t I keep it? 43697 Clearing?"
43697Comfort, I guess I''ll knit a red binding at the top of the stockings, to look handsome, shall I?
43697Comfort,said Nelly, getting impatient,"why do n''t you tell me, then, Comfort?"
43697Comfort-- teach-- poetry?
43697Did n''t you lock it?
43697Did she eat it?
43697Did you ever see a church dressed with evergreens, Miss Elinor?
43697Did you ever try it?
43697Did you go to the church, Miss Elinor, in the woods?
43697Do n''t what?
43697Do n''t you know that is what Comfort means?
43697Do they?
43697Do you believe it? 43697 Easy, Martin?
43697Good- bye,replied Nelly; and then she added, bravely,"Oh, Melindy, we need n''t quarrel any more, need we?
43697Have you so soon forgotten your old rule of good for evil, Nell?
43697Heyday, what ar''s the matter now?
43697How did you like the big thumping I gave you yesterday?
43697How does it go?
43697I s''pose not, but who wants to be friends with anybody like_ that_?
43697If you and Melindy were friends, you would n''t feel so, would you?
43697Is he?
43697Is it going to storm?
43697It was your uncle, then, you were visiting?
43697Johnny,she said, softly,"do you believe anybody can be_ perfectly_ good in this world?"
43697Johnny?
43697Lock what?
43697Marm Lizy?
43697Miss Elinor,said Melinda,"what do they mean when they say''as poor as a church- mouse?''
43697Miss Nelly''s been for whippin''a''ready? 43697 Oh, that''s it, is it?
43697Punches, Nelly?
43697Speak the truff,she said;"did n''t yer whack Melindy_ fust_?"
43697Still, you would rather be friends than enemies, Nell, would n''t you? 43697 Stingin''bee, Nell?"
43697Tell yer what, chile?
43697That''s pretty fair, is n''t it, Comfort?
43697Weel, what do you want to say to Johnny in your poetry? 43697 Well chile, what now?"
43697Well, Martin,she said,"you are_ always_ preachin''ar''n''t you?
43697Well, who was she, Nell?
43697Well, why is it?
43697What do they do for windows?
43697What were you saying, Comfort, when that young man knocked? 43697 What''s the matter, Comfort?"
43697What''s the use of jumpin''?
43697What, pray for Melindy?
43697What?
43697Where is Marm Lizy now, Nelly?
43697Which hand will you have, Nell?
43697Who spoiled the game; did you hear anybody say?
43697Who would n''t play tag, yesterday, eh?
43697Why do n''t you speak up?
43697Why, I did, I s''pose,spoke Melinda roughly;"and what of it?"
43697Why, is n''t Mr. Sidney a nice young man, Melindy?
43697Why, is the pasture good enough for that, up here on this mountain?
43697Why, yes,said Comfort, mightily pleased;"that will make''em smart, wo n''t it?"
43697Will not Comfort feel proud when she hears it?
43697Yes, and to- day, when school was out, she gave me_ such_ a whack,--right in my ribs; shall I show you how, Comfort?
43697You refuse then?
43697Your neffy, Comfort? 43697 _ Slave?_"repeated Nelly, with growing interest;"what''s_ slave_, Comfort?"
43697_ Slave?_repeated Nelly, with growing interest;"what''s_ slave_, Comfort?"
43697Are you afraid_ now_, Nell?"
43697As the two children went down the stairs together, Nelly said,"Is n''t she good, Melindy?"
43697At length she said, quite forgetful of her writing,"Comfort, did n''t Mrs. Harrow''s son run away to sea, ever so long ago?"
43697Can you guess what I am going to do?
43697Come, show me where you fished, Johnny, will you?"
43697Could n''t I go in the kitchen for this one evening?"
43697Do n''t know what a neffy is, eh?"
43697Do n''t yer know what a neffy is_ yet_?
43697Do n''t you think I might try?
43697Do n''t you think it will seem strange to Johnny to be with his mother all the time, instead of sending her letters from school?
43697Do you think that is a right law?"
43697Does He see us_ now_?"
43697Fun, is n''t it?"
43697Harrow?"
43697Has n''t Johnny any relations down there, Comfort?"
43697Has n''t it grown handsome while you were telling about Wildfire?
43697Has she met any great misfortune?"
43697How big is he?"
43697How can I ever repay you for your kindness?"
43697How easy?"
43697How is your mother, Melinda?"
43697How much is that, Martin?"
43697How old is he?"
43697I ca n''t go to her and say,''Melindy, I like you ever so much,''when all the time I despise her like poison, can I?
43697I do n''t think much of picnics, do you, Nell?"
43697I guess it''s pretty tough work though, do n''t you?"
43697I looked down, and there-- what do you think I saw?"
43697I was thinkin''I would knit a pair of gray, woollen stockings to have ready for him, shall I?
43697I''ve got the first line all written; that''s some help is n''t it?
43697Is it something that grows?"
43697Is n''t it so?"
43697It do n''t seem a bit like a stump fence now, does it?"
43697Johnny Bixby,--you know Johnny Bixby, Comfort?
43697Johnny boards with those ar Harrowses, eh?"
43697Lucy, lend me your knife, will you?"
43697Nelly cried, in innocent wonder;"is n''t Comfort good any longer?"
43697Shall I let it go?"
43697Some day, when I get real,_ awful_ good, you''ll leave off, wo n''t you?
43697The thought flashed through her mind,"Shall I, or shall I not?"
43697Then she added, thoughtfully,"I wonder if Martin might not go, too?"
43697Then she asked, with energy,"Johnny, do you know what I think we ought to do?
43697There''s''ragin''sea,''--how''s that?"
43697Was n''t that nice?
43697We must arrange your room a little, Ellie, and have everything looking spruce, and Frenchified, eh?"
43697What books have you, Milly?"
43697What shall we do first, Miss Elinor?"
43697What was all she had endured previously, to this trial?
43697What''s that, Johnny, flopping about in the grass?"
43697What''s that?"
43697What''s the good of fibbing about it to her?
43697What_ are_ we to do?
43697Who must I give it to?"
43697Why are_ church_-mice poorer than house- mice?"
43697Why did you not come to me before?"
43697Why, see here, Nelly,--s''pose now, I had a sister once, and that ar sister got married and had a little boy, what ought he to call_ me_, eh?"
43697Will not I have good times, eh?
43697_ I_ do n''t wish to, do you?
43697_ That_ was kind of her, was n''t it?"
43697asked Johnny;"who''s that, Nell?"
43697eh, Comfort?"
43697put it off after Comfort has baked us that great, bouncing sponge- cake, Martin?"
43697said my uncle Page 100 All the people were more_ changed to_"All the people were more Page 104 It do''n''t seem a bit_ changed to_ It do n''t?
43697said my uncle,''do you think, Elinor, we are short- walk Christians?
43697she said;"how could I be so keerless?
43697will not that be nice?"
21725Admitted; but what else can we do?
21725Ai n''t it''eavenly?
21725An''what if there was?
21725And are you satisfied that you are better without it?
21725And how would you propose to cut the bones, John?
21725And what has become of the rest, dear?
21725Are you goin''to fish for sharks to- day?
21725Are''ee in arnest, Bob?
21725Believe in strong feelin''s, Nellie? 21725 But of course you have a home of some sort, somewhere?"
21725But what has made you change your mind? 21725 But, I say, Bob, you''ve kep''this uncommon close from us all-- eh?
21725But, I say, Ned, do n''t ye ever feel a longin''for grog? 21725 Cut''em?
21725D''ee know what''s the matter wi''him?
21725D''ee know when it''ll be low water, sir?
21725D''ee think that white blood is worth more than black blood in the eyes o''the Almighty as made''em both?
21725Did I not say that He would not forsake us?
21725Did you hear that noise-- like a cannon- shot?
21725Do I look anything like a bridegroom as I am?
21725Do you live far from this hall?
21725Go away?
21725Has the doctor seen him this morning?
21725Have a bit o''pork? 21725 Have any of you got matches in your pockets?"
21725Have my skates been sharpened?
21725Have n''t we a big baling- dish, Terrence?
21725Have n''t ye a small bit o''''baccy in the corner o''wan o''yer pockets, doctor, dear?
21725How can we ever get into that?
21725How did you get on with poor Peggy last night, Eva?
21725How-- what then about that splendid wife that he''s got in the after- cabin_ now_?
21725I sees it, John-- but, I say, what''s the matter wi''Terrence?
21725I will,replied Tomlin,"D''you know it never occurred to me before how tremendously important the element of fire is?
21725If that be so, who is taking care of him just now?
21725Is that all?
21725Is the agent in?
21725Is the lad really dyin''?
21725Is there never a one of ye,he asked, almost sternly,"who can pray like a Christian without screechin''?
21725Is this necessary?
21725Mother,said Jack,"have you not often told me that God will not forsake us?
21725Mrs Matterby?
21725My poor boy, do you suffer much?
21725My sweet little toolip,he said,"can I do anythink for you?"
21725Ned,said he, at last,"do you really believe in the truth of these words,` Blessed are they that consider the poor?''"
21725Nellie, dear,said Massey, when the boat was brought up under the lee of the rocks,"d''ee feel_ very_ cold?"
21725No relations of any kind at all in London?
21725Now, Jack, let me ask you one question,she said;"would you like to go to Canada?"
21725Now, tell me; how long is it since you tasted strong drink?
21725Oh, would n''t I just?
21725Please, sir, may I go with Mitford to seek for water?
21725Shall we launch the boats now, sir?
21725Sir?
21725Sk- t."Sk- t? 21725 Suppose we cut some grass and try that?"
21725Tell me, dear child,she said, stooping low and putting a gentle hand on Martha''s shoulder,"are you not hungry?"
21725Th- thank you, J- John,replied Peggy, whose teeth chattered like castanets,"but''ow am I t- to d- dry''em?
21725That''s true, sir,returned Massey,"but how about the women?"
21725The use?
21725Then you''re sure you wo n''t think it hard, Nell, if I ask you to leave home and friends and go wi''me over the sea?
21725Was this split made hundreds-- perhaps thousands-- of years ago, for the purpose of enabling me to escape?
21725Well then your sister or aunt-- I suppose there''s some relative at home older than yourself?
21725Well, Ned, how have you enjoyed yourself to- day?
21725Wet?
21725What are you thinking about?
21725What d''ee mean, Bob?
21725What does that mean?
21725What is it?
21725What luck do you mean, Bob?
21725What say you to a turn on the ice, Matty?
21725What''s the time now, lad?
21725What''s the time?
21725Why, dear child,she said, in surprise,"have they not given you something to eat?"
21725Will that do? 21725 Will you just go to the bow and take a squint ahead?
21725Would you like to give grandfather anything in particular, little woman, if a fairy were to offer to give it you?
21725Yes? 21725 You''re_ sure_ it is better, dear little child?"
21725Your mother is poor, I suppose?
21725_ Can_ it be?
21725Are we not about to face the bitter blast and the driving snow on this Christmas morning for that very purpose?
21725But dooty lies in another direction_ this_ day, so you promise to see her hauled up, an''cleaned, an''properly housed, wo n''t you?"
21725But how will you ever manage to make the branches catch, everything being so thoroughly soaked?"
21725But one word before-- old Nell; and-- Nellie?"
21725But what could poor Slag do?
21725But what could these do to help him?
21725But what shall we call him?"
21725But what was that projecting from the water, not twenty yards from where he stood?
21725But where have you been?"
21725But who''s to stop at home to mind the camp- fire and the women?"
21725Can nothing be done?
21725Can that be Nellie Grove, whom we last saw with her eyes shut and her mouth open-- howling?
21725Can we wonder that most of them again gave way to despair-- forgetting that with God"all things are possible?"
21725D''ee know anything about your mother''s affairs?"
21725D''ee know what this is for?"
21725Dear, dear,''ave you bin rowin''all night, John?
21725Did n''t our mothers crow over us cheek by jowl when we was babbies?
21725Did you ever try to think things with a sick''eadache, Nellie?"
21725Do n''t you hear them?"
21725Do n''t you remember that day when you waded in baby''s bath, an''then said you was n''t wet a bit, only a_ very_ little, an''you rather liked it?
21725Do n''t you think so, Nellie?
21725Do you believe in strong feelin'', Peggy?"
21725Does it not seem as if He_ had_ forsaken us now?"
21725Every current and eddy about these sands was well known to Joe Slag, also the set of the tides-- besides, had not Bob got on his lifebelt?
21725Have I hurt you much,_ dear_ little girl?
21725Have we not risen an hour earlier than usual to go out and do what we can to mitigate the sorrows of the poor?
21725Have you got the small twigs broken and ready, Slag?"
21725Heave ahead, what is it?"
21725Her what''s bin bed- ridden for years, an''has n''t got no legs at all-- leastwise not to speak of?"
21725How are you?
21725How will that suit you-- eh?"
21725I hope that Mrs Massey ai n''t ill?"
21725I hope there''s nothin''in Scriptur''agin''a man bein''spliced in wet toggery?"
21725If the rich ceased to buy pictures, what would become of painters?
21725Is grandfather very poor?"
21725Meanwhile you had better run home, and tell your father-- if, that is-- your father is at home, I suppose?"
21725Need it be said that, on recovering nervous equilibrium, the joy of rescuers and rescued was intense?
21725Need we add that the memory of his dear mother never faded or grew dim?
21725Nellie, hard at the twine, lass?
21725Only once he broke silence to thank them and say,"Jesus sent you, I suppose?"
21725Shall I read to you?"
21725Shall we describe the joy of the widow and the grandfather?
21725Then he asked,"What are we going to do now, mother?"
21725Was it a voice within him, or an old memory, that immediately whispered the words,"With God all things are possible?"
21725Was n''t you an''me born on the same day, Bob?
21725Well, Peggy,"he added, turning to the poor woman, and patting her gently on the shoulder,"has Nell been tellin''you what I''m goin''to try?"
21725Were not the streets swarming with such boys?
21725What are you going to do?"
21725What brings you here?"
21725What is your name, child?"
21725What say you, comrades?"
21725What will the neighbours think of us?"
21725What would you ask for?"
21725What''s that?"
21725What''s this?"
21725What''s use o''gettin''up?"
21725Where are ye, boy?"
21725Where''s Terrence?"
21725Where''s your mother?"
21725Who''d expect me to see anything else when I''m beside_ her_?"
21725Why could not rich people like us be content with plainer things, and use fewer things, and so have more to give to the poor?"
21725Would they not be thrown out of employment, and help, perhaps, to swell the ranks of the poor?
21725Yes, your_ partner_--for were not_ you_ the instrument used in rescuing my soul, and_ he_ my body?
21725You are a man of action and experience, Robert Massey, what would you advise us to do first?"
21725You do n''t suppose the Almighty''s deaf, do you?"
21725You doubt me?
21725You wo n''t be long away, will you?"
21725You''re''ungry, I suppose?"
21725ai n''t it?"
21725alongside o''Aunt Betty?"
21725sorrowful- monkey- face, clap a stopper on yer nose an''tumble up,--d''ye hear?"
21725what do it matter what you calls it so long as you''ve got it to eat?
21725what would be the consequences to authors, and what the result to themselves?
60581''And Nelly?'' 60581 ''I''m so glad you''ve come, children,''she cried, when she heard my footsteps, and then, as I drew nearer,''Why, Jack, where is Nelly?''"
60581''Is she dead?'' 60581 ''Where are you going, my pretty maid?''"
60581And did you ever hear mamma speak of Uncle Richard?
60581And do you know her name?
60581And might I trouble you for a glass of water?
60581And not-- not come out for money any more?
60581And the brave, splendid fellow who was risking his own life to save him?
60581And what did she say?
60581And would n''t you find all that rather a heavy drain on your pocket- money? 60581 And you will go with me back to England?"
60581Any thing else, father?
60581Boxes and boys,--won''t they be too much for you, father?
60581But her brother? 60581 But if you_ could_ see him, mother?"
60581But is there no hope, mother?
60581But you live somewhere?
60581Ca n''t your sister, little Alice''s mother, help you at all?
60581Can you tell me how old you are, and what your name is?
60581Certain she is: who would n''t be? 60581 Did a young girl, sort of delicate lookin'', leave you lately, ma''am?"
60581Do n''t you think, mamma, that Miss Atkinson must be a good deal better Christian than the rest of us, she''s such a patient burden- bearer? 60581 Do n''t you understand that a fellow_ could n''t_ tell such things?
60581Do you know any thing of this child?
60581Do you know what you have done?
60581Do you like to live with her?
60581Do you mean to say Miss Kathie, that you undertake, with your mamma''s full consent, to clothe Alice until she is through school?
60581Do you think she could tell_ Him_ any thing which He does not know? 60581 Do you want to hear a story about the days when I was just such another cub as yourself?"
60581Does your child give you much trouble?
60581Does your side pain you, Miss Atkinson?
60581Does_ she_ say I must?
60581Goin''to own beat without giving it a try?
60581Got your match, Jack?
60581Have you no friends?
60581How happened you to come here?
60581How old is your little niece, Alice?
60581I hear,floated backward on the wind from the flying figure;"I hear, but do n''t you see Rosenburgh?
60581I never knew; did you ever know, Pinky, me love? 60581 I say, Velvet Jacket, how came you here?"
60581I suppose we could n''t be a hospital, could we?
60581Is n''t she sweet?
60581Is she alive?
60581Is she bad then?
60581Is she dying?
60581Is she your grandchild?
60581Is the old Sally you spoke of the girl''s mother?
60581Loved your ma? 60581 May I sit down in the shade and rest?"
60581Missy,she said,"what was your papa''s name?"
60581Oh, ca n''t we go now?
60581Oh, was it red you said you wanted?
60581Oh,said John, laughing,"then when a fellow is nineteen he can be chivalrous to his own sister?"
60581Perhaps you do n''t know, sir, that if you persist in your resolution you lose all hope of the leadership? 60581 Pinky, me love, should_ you_ like to live with the lady?
60581Pinky, me love,she used often to say to her faithful doll friend,"did you ever see any miss so nice as our Miss Hurlburt?
60581Pinky, me love? 60581 Some time will you come back, and let me live with you?"
60581Sophie,she said,"how can you be so unkind, you whom I have loved all my life?
60581Then you''ll let me go up alone and see grandpa? 60581 To my little daughter as tall as her mother?
60581We shall go right by home, sha n''t we, mamma?
60581What did I ever do to make you think I would wear a horrid yellow gown?
60581What do_ you_ know about it?
60581What have they told you about me?
60581What if they have n''t any good place for her there, mamma?
60581What is your name?
60581What is your name?
60581Where is I?
60581Where is her home; can any one tell?
60581Where is her room? 60581 Whose little girl are you?"
60581Why, did you think I would n''t let you keep it?
60581Why_ did n''t_ they fetch you; what made them let you come alone?
60581Will you have pudding, dear? 60581 Will you kindly call a carriage, and put her in?"
60581Would it not have been better to take the girl to one of the hospitals?
60581You are Mrs. Osgood, are you not?
60581You think we ought to adopt her, and make her ours legally?
60581Your mother-- how will she receive me, Olive?
60581After a while my driver came up, touching his hat, respectfully, and asked,--"Would ye plaise to start soon, miss?"
60581Ah, who knows the mysteries of the border land between life and death?
60581All I''m thinking on is,--you''re young, miss,--would your folks like it, and would n''t you get tired on her?"
60581Am I to tell all the sad and bitter truth?
60581And as I lay there crying I heard gentle footsteps, and then felt soft lips on my cheek, and heard a voice,--"Oh, ca n''t I comfort you, Miss Bessie?
60581And what does a Saviour mean, if it ai n''t that He''ll save us from our sins if we ask Him?"
60581Ay, how could I?
60581But dared he withhold him, when the boy felt that honor and duty called?
60581But had she seen her own mamma?
60581But when and where should I find some one more desolate than myself to help?
60581Ca n''t I do any thing for you, now you''ve made my life all new and bright?"
60581Can you tell me any thing of her?"
60581Could it be possible, he wondered, that they had not taught her to hate him?
60581Could that woman claim her again?"
60581Did n''t you see me working it out in my head this afternoon, like a sum in arithmetic?
60581Did not the Bible say that God was no respecter of persons?
60581Did she have tastes, he wondered-- wants, longings?
60581Do n''t you hear?"
60581Do n''t you like the clouds?"
60581Do you know, small person, that I''ve often thought it might be better for that same little daughter if I said no to her oftener?
60581Do you not see that I can not have you expose yourself?"
60581Do you think they are all gentlemen up there?"
60581Dr. West told you so Wednesday, did he not?
60581Excitement was giving him unnatural strength, but for how long could he hold on?
60581Had her life been all a failure?
60581Had she any right to interfere between Kathie and this first work of charity the child had ever been inspired to undertake?
60581Had"Nanty"also forsaken little Rose?
60581He held her fast now, and he heard her voice close to his ear:--"Father, are we reconciled at last?"
60581He remembered her standing proudly before him, and asking,--"Father, do you know any thing against Harry Church?"
60581He, Job Golding, was rich,--had been rich all his lifetime,--but what special thing had riches done for him?
60581Honest, now, do n''t you think you could?
60581How can persons be good when they do n''t have what they want?"
60581How could I help loving her?
60581How is it ever done?
60581How much of the beauty was the girl''s very self, and how much did she owe to this splendid setting?
60581How was it done?
60581I do n''t want to ask him, for he does n''t understand silks and muslins, or what Alice needs; but would you answer for him?
60581I''ve got a bad name, and who wonders?
60581If he did right, who could make him afraid?
60581It is the country; is n''t it?"
60581It was at the child that my little crossing- sweeper was looking, with a gaze which seemed to me to say,--"So this, then, is childhood?
60581McGuire?"
60581Missy, should you like to live with me?"
60581Mother, how can I bear it?
60581Must he indeed begin so soon to look danger in the face, for the sake of others?
60581Not enjoyment enough in any one day to pay for living,--why not as well lie down and die at once?
60581Now do you think papa would be willing?
60581Oh how could I, when I loved her so?
60581One question kept asking itself over in her mind,--Why should some people have blue silk gowns, and others have no gowns at all?
60581Osgood?"
60581Papa bent down and kissed his girl, before he asked, half reproachfully,--"And how if I say''no''?
60581Run, iron- gray man, as you never ran before, or how shall you drive home to that boy''s waiting mother?
60581Sha n''t I be dear, then?"
60581Shall I never, never be strong, mamma?"
60581She had been with Lill almost a year; could she not be content to give me a single hour without her?
60581She had tried to do her duty: was it all nothing, because she had n''t loved?
60581She was going home to God, this little Lily of heaven; and would she tell Him that I had hated, all through, the baby sister He had given me?
60581She went on with renewed bitterness, asking herself, over and over again, Why?
60581Should I ever see my mother again?
60581Should he venture to interfere with its observance?
60581Soon Mrs. Brierly asked,--"Do you remember your father and mother, Ruthy?
60581Ten years ago he had sent her last letter back unopened; but this one,--what influence apart from himself moved him to read it?
60581The lady saw the direction of her eyes, and said, gently,--"I think you must like pictures very much, Ruthy?"
60581There were other pleasant girls in town, but I took none of them into Nelly''s vacant place: how could I?
60581Was Nelly dead or alive?
60581Was that old Job Golding?
60581Was there any God at all?
60581What a very cold loving- one- another we were most of us doing in this world, after all?
60581What do you call her?"
60581What else?
60581What had changed, while the old house among the trees had stood so still?
60581What had nobody''s child to do with such names?
60581What if he should turn all the strength that was in him to going up and not down?
60581What if it was done just to give us a chance to help each other?
60581What if she died, or what if she never had her reason again?
60581What if we could see him again?"
60581What kept you?"
60581What was he, this puny wretch, without pluck enough to stand on his own legs, that he should wear the garments of a young prince?
60581What was the use of it all?
60581When Cain had murdered his brother he had to go forth alone,--what was left for me, another Cain, but to go also alone into the world?
60581Where is she?"
60581Who can ever tell in such a crisis?
60581Who in that house would ever bear to look at me?
60581Who knew what she might not find there,--love, may be, and friends, and home,--perhaps, even, the father and mother who, as old Sally said, were dead?
60581Who knew?
60581Why had he never known what he lost, in losing the sweetness of her love, through all these vanished years?
60581Why has he never looked for his sister nor her child?"
60581Why should Ralph Rosenburgh have every thing he wanted, and they nothing?
60581Why?
60581Why?
60581Will you believe that even then the old, bitter jealousy began to gnaw again at my heart?
60581Will you, grandpapa?"
60581Would it be against any law if I took her home with me, without letting any one know where she was gone, and took care of her?
60581Would you go, if your mother went?"
60581Would you?
60581You loved mamma, did n''t you?
60581_ Will_ she go home to God, and tell Him I have hated her?"
60581does n''t want to see her baby sister, do n''t she?
60581is it you, my little gentleman?"
60581or, if there was, did He not make some people and forget them altogether, while He was heaping good things on others whom He liked better?
60581she said,"and what for you make morning so soon?"
42961And this is the baby, is it?
42961And you know God gave him to the world?
42961Are you sure, Judge, that you did n''t bring a fan with you?
42961But how shall we get down into the closets?
42961But what shall we do with the Judge and the baby?
42961But where did you keep your legs all the time?
42961Child, what did you say it was?
42961Dear me, what is that queer noise?
42961Did n''t you see the registers?
42961Did you say these were all the children?
42961Did you see the man in the moon as we came into church?
42961Did you see the man in the moon?
42961Do n''t you like the name?
42961Do n''t you see it''s Mrs.''Judge''that''s come back to see you?
42961Do n''t you think it''s time to call the children?
42961Do n''t you think we might visit the closets now?
42961Do what?
42961Do you see those things under the stairs? 42961 Do you think the team will stand?"
42961Do you think you could bring all of us a very great deal of sweetness of disposition? 42961 Have n''t we been singing''Rise, Shine?''
42961Have you a flock of birds inside of you?
42961Have you got one of those fires in the cellar?
42961Here you give that to me, will you?
42961How did you get out?
42961How do you do? 42961 How do you do?"
42961How do you feel?
42961How do you get along?
42961How many are there?
42961How many children did that man say he had? 42961 How would you like to have the dinner served, Ruth?"
42961How''d''do, ma''am?
42961I think Greece smells bad, do n''t you?
42961I think the Judge ought to have something solemn on, do n''t you?
42961I wonder if it''s a thought?
42961I wonder what they did with the old box pew that belonged to me? 42961 Is n''t it fine?"
42961Is n''t she pretty?
42961It looks to me like a-- what is it you call it, when you look into a mirror? 42961 It makes you nervous to walk much, does n''t it?
42961My dear, do you see the clock?
42961My dear, have you my fan in your pocket?
42961My dear,the Judge was now speaking to his wife,"do n''t you think you could get up a little party for the children to- night?
42961Not your father and mother,--the minister and the minister''s wife?
42961Now, what is this for Samuel? 42961 See?"
42961That would be dreadful, would n''t it?
42961The what?
42961Well, do n''t you think it''s nice for us to give things to each other on that day? 42961 What can it be?"
42961What color do you call this?
42961What did your boys die of?
42961What do you want?
42961What does this mean?
42961What have you got to put around him?
42961What is this?
42961What next?
42961What''s become of the old portico?
42961What''s in it?
42961What? 42961 Where are we?"
42961Where is she?
42961Where is that letter that you read us at the last meeting?
42961Where is the old meeting- house?
42961Where''s the feed?
42961Who''ll nurse him? 42961 Why do n''t you say something?"
42961Why do n''t you take the quill and the paper that you hold in the portrait, and use them?
42961Why, Judge, we are n''t here, are we? 42961 Why, how do you do?"
42961Why, what has become of my bedroom?
42961Why, you do n''t mean it, do you?
42961Would n''t you like to go over the house?
42961Would the house go down if the wine- cellar caved in?
42961You do n''t keep an old- clothes exchange, do you, child?
42961You do n''t mean that you really wear whole birds on a hat or a bonnet, do you?
42961You do n''t mean to say that they gave you hot baked potatoes with butter in meeting, and that was the way you kept warm?
42961You do n''t mean to say you have another meeting- house, do you? 42961 You had a baby boy once, did n''t you?
42961You know a great deal about history and things, do n''t you?
42961You know that Jesus was born on the twenty- fifth of December?
42961You mean night, do n''t you, Judge?
42961You used to give away a great deal, did n''t you?
42961[ Illustration: I] THINK it would be real nice for us to take a little ride about the town, do n''t you?
42961And what did you say you called him?"
42961And what will the church committee say?
42961And what''s my tongue for if it is n''t to use in talking?"
42961And where are all the nice little closets under the stairs?
42961And who does not like to be remembered with such loving words and beautiful praises?
42961Are n''t they nice and fresh?"
42961But I do n''t think that would be a very nice present, do you?"
42961But if this is a mark of genius, what shall we say when it comes to keeping track of all the closets and their contents?
42961But what kind of stuff is it?"
42961But what was to be done?
42961But what would you expect from a big boy who knows so much, and has such a host of children to live with?
42961But you could n''t call that a present, could you?
42961Can one help feeling kindly and grateful?
42961Can you sit here by this hole in the clock?"
42961Could it be possible that all these things belonged to them?
42961Could you bring something of that sort to him?"
42961Could you send it to him?
42961Could you?
42961Daughters of the American Revolution?
42961Did he beam with the joy of the Christ- life?
42961Did n''t you hear me say so?
42961Did the good man lift his hands in benediction?
42961Did you ever see anything like it?
42961Did you ever see such a lot of nicked, broken, mismatched, cracked, blackened, ugly old ware as they keep on my shelves?
42961Did you hang up your stocking when you were a little girl?"
42961Did you write it Judge?"
42961Did you write it down?"
42961Do n''t they keep butter in you?"
42961Do n''t you like it?
42961Do n''t you see that there is hardly anything left of me?
42961Do n''t you think it will be nice?
42961Do n''t you think that is a nice way to remember the coming of Jesus and God''s gift to all of us?"
42961Do n''t you think we''re smart?"
42961Do n''t you think you''d better write the things down as I tell them to you?
42961Do n''t you?"
42961Do you think she will star it?
42961Do you think there is any sin in it?"
42961Do you think you are as good and wise and great as people say?
42961Do you think you could fill her up for once?"
42961Do you wonder that Ruth''s eyes were dazzled?
42961Do you wonder that this important man and his family gazed with surprise and alarm at the sight?
42961Does n''t he look cute?"
42961Does n''t it look elegant?
42961Had they not been buying presents for each other these ten days?
42961Have I mentioned them all but Ruth?
42961Have n''t I heard Samuel and Elizabeth and the older ones talk about high ideals?"
42961Have n''t you any sense?"
42961Have you come back to stay?"
42961How did you do it?"
42961How in the world can he ever get that inside of him where it belongs?"
42961How many does that make?
42961How rich we shall be?"
42961How should I learn how old a girl or a lady is if I did n''t ask?
42961How they flutter and sing, do n''t they?"
42961I wonder if she''ll have all the clothes she wants in heaven?"
42961I wonder if that will be enough?"
42961I wonder what that is?
42961Is he the Judge''s namesake or the Judge his namesake?
42961Is n''t it a wonder she did n''t die?"
42961Is n''t it cunning?
42961Is n''t it grand?
42961Is n''t it lovely?
42961Is n''t it queer that we ca n''t have a baby with curls?
42961Judge, did you know that our folks now keep Christmas in their churches and their homes?
42961Judge, will Miriam be a star herself now?
42961Let me see; there are twenty- seven rooms and sixty closets, are n''t there?"
42961Now, how shall I carry them?"
42961Now, that''s what you''ve sent to father, is n''t it?
42961Ruth, of course, was right; for was n''t there a big room in the top of the clock?
42961That would be a queer sight, would n''t it?
42961Then, here''s a broad purple ribbon for a necktie; and I''ll put this ermine boa around his neck, for do n''t judges sometimes wear ermine?
42961There, does n''t she look well?"
42961There, now, do n''t I look just too nice for anything?"
42961They are-- what is it you call them?
42961They would have been awful old if they had lived till now, would n''t they?
42961Two of''em, did n''t you?"
42961Was it an earthquake, or what?
42961Was it possible ever to get the house and the family settled down to plain, every- day living again?
42961Was it the skeleton?
42961Well, now, is n''t that queer?
42961Were the ten acres of lawn, garden, orchard, field, and pasture really for their use and pleasure?
42961Were you trying to correct me, Judge?
42961What did you say they were called?
42961What makes you look so solemn?
42961What''s become of the old one?"
42961What''s the news?"
42961When I said sense did I mean( what is it they call it), oh, singular, not plural?
42961When did you come?
42961Whenever the children stood before the pictures, they asked questions: Who was the Judge?
42961Who ever heard of giving away closets?
42961Why could n''t we have one over at the house to- night?"
42961Why did n''t you think of it before?
42961Why do n''t you ask the Judge and me to play church with you and the rest of the children some of the times when you come into the parlor?"
42961Why, what a little thing it is?
42961Will this make George soft- hearted and tender- hearted and good- hearted?
42961Will you send it to the baby?"
42961Will you, please, tie this bow of nile- green velvet about my neck?
42961Would n''t you like to stop at the church and go inside?
42961Would you put it on the top of his head?
42961You did n''t send the curls, did you?"
42961You have got used to it, have n''t you?
42961You want him to season things with cheerfulness, do n''t you, and make himself and all the rest of us fragrant?
42961You''d think we all belonged to her, would n''t you?
42961and Samuel said, with a nudge of the arm,"Keep still, ca n''t you?"
42961and did n''t the Judge and his wife know all about it?
42961and do n''t you believe that Santa Claus comes down the chimney and brings us lots of presents?"
42961and so to- night is the very night, is it?
42961and was not every closet in the house made the hiding- place for some treasure?
42961and we never should have lived in this house if they had lived, would we?"
42961and would she see it?
42961are n''t you hungry?"
42961did he like children?
42961exclaimed Samuel, who had drawn near the young inquisitor, and felt it was time to stop her;"are n''t you ashamed of yourself?"
42961how much of a family did he have?
42961how shall I get it back?"
42961what became of his things?
42961what did he do?
42961what is this?"
42961what will you and the Judge wear?
42961what?"
42961when did he die?
42961where was he buried?
42961who attended the funeral?
42961wo n''t it be fun?"
42961wo n''t this be nice on rainy days?
61804''But how,''I asked,''can we know whether she sincerely regrets her fault?'' 61804 And he-- oh, is he hurt?"
61804And how much did it all bring?
61804And is not the prayer in the Litany, Have mercy upon us miserable sinners, put into every mouth?
61804And what did you reply, Ned?
61804And what do such young fry as you get for your work?
61804And what was it that Franks said about wounds and scars?
61804And what''s that?
61804And when?
61804And where have you been this day, Claudius?
61804And yet, dear Ned, who knows but that a blessing may come even out of this grievous trial? 61804 Are you certain of that?"
61804Are you going to see poor Stone to- morrow?
61804But how can we write,asked Persis,"when we do not know her address?
61804But what are sorrows,thought poor Sophy,"that come upon us, not because we have followed the Lord, but because we have wandered from him?"
61804But when she is once right in the middle of the whirlpool, can she help being sucked in?
61804But, mamma, mamma, if she''s sorry, if she will promise never to do it again, wo n''t you try her a little longer?
61804Can you give me any clue to her present place of abode?
61804Did you ever hear of his crocodile adventure in Madagascar?
61804Did you see a sovereign on the dressing- table?
61804Did_ you_ see one when you tidied my room?
61804Do n''t we all hope to go to heaven when we die?
61804Do n''t you see I''ve a kind of credit in the village for hanging out my colors boldly, and trying at least to sail by the chart? 61804 Do you intend then,"asked Persis, laying down her work,"to speak faithfully to our poor friend when you visit him to- morrow?"
61804Do you know what passed between the two?
61804Do you not?
61804Do you think I shall be_ able_ to keep the pledge?
61804Do you think that Sir Lacy will remember having seen you on board of his ship?
61804Do you think that our blessed religion allows us to detest any being on earth?
61804Do you wish me to ask her to let you go to the hospital to see your_ husband_, when she does not know that you have one?
61804Good- day to you, Ned Franks, glad to see you; what brings you this way?
61804Have I not suffered enough yet?
61804Have you seen Nancy?
61804How are we to make sure that the debts_ are_ all paid,--I mean, that God has forgiven us outright? 61804 How are you to know true faith from false faith?"
61804How could she?
61804How did you contrive to sell everything in the basket?
61804How do you get such comfort in religion? 61804 How do you know a real fire from a painted one?"
61804I hope that you will return my visit,said Persis;"could you not come over this evening at seven to tea?"
61804I hope to see you so soon again; you are coming,--at least will you not come and take tea with us this evening? 61804 I suppose your man''s out?"
61804I wonder if you and your good wife could just step in and pass a quiet evening with me and John Sands? 61804 If he does not come forward, is his backwardness an example to be followed?"
61804Is father at home, my little lass?
61804Is that all?
61804It does not seem like it,muttered Sophy, half aloud,"or why does God leave us in misery like this?"
61804Mrs. Sands, you joined us last night in the prayer,_ lead us not into temptation_; are you not steering right into the middle of it now?
61804My dear, would you take my arm?
61804Now, Ned, darling, will you let me say a little thing to you?
61804O my father, have you not called me your child; have you not said again and again that our purse should always be one? 61804 Oh, is n''t he a bad, bad man,"she cried,"to burn up all in that great big fire, and to make the boys go away?
61804Pray, sir, have n''t you a cousin of the name of Benjamin Isaacs, who has adopted a blind girl as his daughter?
61804Sermon,--what do you mean?
61804Shall we never go back to Colme, father?
61804Stay,said Mrs. Lowndes, as the eager Norah was about to retire from the room;"of course your friend is not married?"
61804Then what will you do, my poor dear Milly?
61804Then why did you give warning?
61804Throw what, my dear?
61804Was it a shame in me, my darling, to bring you into this engagement about Nancy Sands?
61804Were every one''s sins blotted out then?
61804What answer did our young curate return?
61804What are these two things, Persis Franks? 61804 What are you all about?"
61804What avails it to keep her from the public- house,thought Persis,"if she has the poison with her at home?"
61804What do you say, sweetheart?
61804What has happened?
61804What say you to our master here,--you who have all kinds of learning at the ends of your fingers,--is he fit to be a teacher of boys?
61804What shall we do,--where shall we take her?
61804What was the text of the sermon?
61804What''s that? 61804 What''s that?"
61804What,--glad that I''ve not a corner to turn to?
61804Where am I to turn up now?
61804Where''s your beer, John?
61804Whither bound, messmate?
61804Who gave the hand strength and the mind reason? 61804 Why do n''t young Sir Lacy mend''em?
61804Why should a woman, any more than a man, be beyond reach of God''s mercy and grace? 61804 Why, what''s in the wind?"
61804Will that dear little girl enjoy her flowers less because the_ first_ are always for her father?
61804Will you take half- a- crown for all these?
61804Would it be right to hide such a fact?
61804Would you put bad and good all together?
61804You do n''t mean us to conclude,said Badham at last,"that you have never so much as heard of all these well- known matters before?"
61804You feel for me, Benoni, you pity me,replied Sophy, almost with a sob;"why does not God pity too?"
61804''What said the young parson to you, Nancy?''
61804Above all, how would he look forward to the great change which was slowly and painlessly, but not the less surely, approaching?
61804And why should I_ not_ go to- day, although it is Sunday?
61804Are you sure that_ your_ debts are all paid?"
61804As you happen to have gin at hand, will you, to do me a favor, let me carry that bottle to him?"
61804But I''m afraid that to most he will rather say,''Thou of little faith, why didst thou doubt?''"
61804But how could I say him nay?
61804But how did Nancy take your suggestions?"
61804But what of that?
61804But who"can suffer and be still,"--submissive and uncomplaining?
61804But who''s to meet Norah at the station?"
61804But would it not be well, Claudius, as you are the baronet''s near relation, that you should go and speak to him yourself on the subject?
61804Can we fancy that in those old days of the flood there were no boats and no sailors,--that none could row, and none could swim?
61804Can you tell me where to find her, or your cousin?"
61804Could she not take the babe with her?
61804Did he not say,_ God forbid that I should glory save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ_?
61804Did he think thus he had earned heaven?
61804Did you ever hear such a sermon?
61804Do you find it to be so in your experience of men, Ben Stone?
61804Do you think,"he asked aloud,"that that prayer is suited for_ every one_ who repeats it?"
61804Does poor Nancy seem conscious of her sin before God?
61804Does she show any sign of repentance?"
61804Franks, upon this particular Monday morning, had just begun his questioning with the words,"Now, Sims, what was the text?"
61804Franks?"
61804Franks?"
61804Had not she, too, once had a son?
61804Had power, wealth, and high station been a blessing or a curse to him who had not indeed_ buried_ his talents, but made them an instrument of evil?
61804Has he found true peace through Christ?"
61804Have I not made a good bargain?"
61804Have you not shared your little with me, fed and clothed me for years?
61804Her sickness was more of the soul than the body,--it came from the tempter''s whisper,"Where is thy God?
61804How could I doubt which to accept?"
61804How did you find him?"
61804How long are you likely to stay with your uncle?"
61804How often, with bitter regret for the past, did Norah ask herself that question?
61804I want to keep the pledge if I can, if only for the sake of poor John; but how am I to do it?"
61804Is it not written,_ Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee, and the remainder of wrath shalt thou restrain_?"
61804Is not the baptism of Benjamin Isaacs, and of Benoni his son, down in the register there, and was it not all from the speaking of you and your wife?
61804Is this peace of which I talk the peace of a converted or of a dead soul?
61804It was in a grave, rather anxious tone, that he inquired,"Is he resting on the Rock?
61804It was perplexing to him to see how many persons in London bore it; how should he choose between them?
61804May I ask in what college you have studied?"
61804Now, illness, serious and sudden, had come upon himself, and the question was, how would he bear it?
61804Oh, ca n''t you stop the child''s crying for a minute?
61804On what then_ did_ it depend?
61804PLEASURE OR PRINCIPLE?
61804Pleasure or Principle?
61804So you''ve been making preparations for a grand bonfire in honor of my return?"
61804Suddenly and almost fiercely she asked,"Franks wo n''t be after preaching goodness and that sort of thing?"
61804The church is hard by; will you come with me into the vestry?"
61804The young girl would gladly have gone again into service; but to whom could she apply for a character?
61804Well may my heart sing, too, for who has such a home, and such a mate, and such a nestling as mine?
61804Were there no battle, where would be the victory?
61804What can be a- bringing him here?"
61804What can missus want us both for at once?"
61804What had all the silver and gold, and shittim wood, and precious onyx- stones, that he talked of, to do with repairing a set of old almshouses?
61804What has brought you and your husband up to town?"
61804What need was there to be so very particular about a little slip of the tongue?
61804What shall I plead when I stand, as I soon must, in the immediate presence of a heart- searching God?''"
61804What would happen, Ben Stone, were we to tear that green part away?"
61804What''s the second thing that you meant, Persis Franks?"
61804What''s this?"
61804Where are you going, Ned Franks?"
61804Why on earth should she choose an hour when she knows I''m always in the school- room?"
61804Why should all be sunshine with them when her sky was clouded with gloom?
61804Why should these Franks be so happy when she was childless?
61804Would Franks, a one- armed man, succeed in earning enough to support a wife and child?
61804Would there be any harm?
61804Would they ever see them again?
61804Would you mind now telling an old friend what reason you have for thinking that you''re bound for heaven?"
61804[ Illustration:"And where have you been this day, Claudius?"
61804and was he not lying under the shadow of the church- yard wall?
61804as Norah thrust the scrap of soiled paper into his hand,--"what have we to do with Tabitha Turtle?
61804but''Lisson Grove;''where''s Lisson Grove?"
61804exclaimed Stone, in amused surprise;"how did she take it?
61804have you sold them, Benoni?"
61804she said;"would it not be like deceiving my mistress?"
61804so you have been with our poor friend, the carpenter?
61804what do you mean?"
61804whose power made the stream which turns your mill?
61804whose sunshine ripens the corn on your fields?
61804why, he''s not going to resign the place, surely?"
34551And Jim?
34551And blue of the far dappled sky, That shows at warm, still noon, Shines in her softly smiling eye-- Oh who''s so sweet as June?
34551And can I learn surveying?
34551And can you live on five dollars a week?
34551And did it work?
34551And do n''t you suppose he will ever reform, and send you money to come back to him?
34551And does Mrs. Hetterman support the family on ze croquettes of codfish?
34551And have them flop about like a ship''s pennant in a lively breeze, during that bit of rapid bowing? 34551 And have you never been able to guess what your old name was?"
34551And he never gave you my check for a thousand dollars?
34551And how do you propose to avoid the fate of the Fish Society?
34551And in the mean time what am I to do for a costume? 34551 And so you left your husband?"
34551And the elder brother and Jim? 34551 And will this ravine be my very own?"
34551Are all out?
34551Are n''t you curious to know?
34551Are you Charley''s son?
34551Are you afraid? 34551 Are you going to be expelled?"
34551Are you ill, Miss Prillwitz?
34551Are you in love?
34551Beautiful? 34551 Business connected with a patent?"
34551But do you forgive me, Miss Prillwitz?
34551But how will you ever get it?
34551But it was not right, was it,asked Jim,"that the Indians should have so little and Mr. Sanchez so much?"
34551But suppose I do not charge any more rent, but simply try to educate my old tenants to better habits of life?
34551But what shall we do for a housekeeper for the cottage?
34551But what shall we have?
34551But why did you bring back that wretched little furnace and iron?
34551But you never came back that way?
34551But, Winnie, why did n''t you tell her the whole story at first? 34551 But, girls, what am I to do for a costume?"
34551Ca n''t you do better with something else?
34551Can we not rest for half an hour?
34551Can you ever love me again?
34551Did not Solomon Meyer tell you that I wanted you to call, with reference to the four thousand dollars still unpaid on our patent transaction?
34551Did she find a good place for him?
34551Did they die?
34551Did you drown the creature?
34551Did you try the charm?
34551Do n''t you see that you are throwing away your chances?
34551Do you mean to say that you and your husband are leaving New York for the West together?
34551Do you need money?
34551Do you not remember me? 34551 Do you suspect Miss Prillwitz of being an impostor?"
34551Do you think seventy- five cents too much? 34551 Do you think they ought to be allowed to do so, when the land is ours?"
34551Do you want it for a charm?
34551Do you want to come home, Lovey?
34551Girls,she cried,"how can you talk so?
34551Has it come here, too?
34551Have I ever met him?
34551Have you time for a little job?
34551Hold on, my friend, ai n''t you a trifle in a hurry? 34551 How can that ever be?"
34551How did it happen that you lost your position at Madame Céleste''s on account of Jim?
34551How did you ever manage it?
34551How did you know about this little stolen prince?
34551How does that happen?
34551How much will it be?
34551How old is he now?
34551I receive message from his older bruzzer to take him to my house_ provisionellement_, till his rights and his-- his-- what you call-- his sameness?
34551I should like to know what kind of big people patronize your establishment?
34551I would so like,replied Miss Prillwitz,"but if I waste my time to write, how should I earn my lifes?
34551If I had owned that cañon I would n''t have liked to have given it up, would you?
34551Is he at the Home of the Elder Brother?
34551Is he not?
34551Is it a catamount?
34551Is it only memory, or have I lost my senses? 34551 Is it possible that such a noted and successful actress gets her costumes at a place like this?"
34551Is it true,she asked of Mr. Armstrong,"that you are willing to pay more for our land?
34551Is n''t it too absurd for anything? 34551 Is not this Charley''s wife?"
34551Is not this your signature?
34551It would be just the thing if I were alone,she replied,"but what would Jim do without me?"
34551Jim, are you crazy?
34551Lovey''s been--"Run over?
34551Milly,she gasped,"are you a coward, to stand there and hear our friend reviled so?
34551Mother Halsey,he asked,"what part of your work bothers you most?"
34551My dear Tib,Winnie replied,"did n''t I tell you this was a fish story?
34551No,replied Winnie;"what will it do?"
34551Not the soldering furnace?
34551Now what will the Hornets''Nest say to that?
34551O papa, will you not let me have it for the summer?
34551Perhaps you will secure one of Queen Victoria''s court robes?
34551That is so,Mr. Stillman replied,"Shall we drive back after it?"
34551The two boys could live at the Newsboys''Lodging- House, for they earn enough to support themselves, but what would I do with my four girls?
34551Then the little boy who is coming to you,said Emma Jane,"may not be the real prince, after all?"
34551Then you are one of Captain Pratt''s boys?
34551Then you will take us to the chimney,Mr. Armstrong asked,"and cook for us while we are out?
34551Then,said Jim,"you think that the white people will never have a chance to come in here and take up land?"
34551Then,said Madame, drawing herself up frigidly,"Miss Anton, you may explain: what was it you threw out?"
34551Was Cerberus asleep?
34551Was he stolen away from home by gypsies?
34551What are you doing? 34551 What can we do for her?"
34551What do they do?
34551What do you mean?
34551What do you mean?
34551What do you suppose I have found stowed away in the back part of the cart?
34551What do you want me to do?
34551What ever put it into Solomon Meyer''s head to do that?
34551What have the rich ever done for you? 34551 What is it?
34551What is the matter with the people?
34551What is the matter with you, any way, Winnie?
34551What is the matter?
34551What is the matter?
34551What of that? 34551 What reason is zere that I should take them in more as all ze uzzer children in ze court?"
34551What shall I ever do,she frequently asked,"when I finish school?
34551What will he take for this invention?
34551What would you do, personally, Mr. Van Silver?
34551Where did you learn to speak English so well?
34551Where is your husband?
34551Who constructed this for you? 34551 Who will confess?"
34551Why did n''t Milly think to send hers along?
34551Why did n''t you tell us, Winnie,I asked,"that Jim Halsey was the little prince?"
34551Why do n''t you light the lamp?
34551Why do you leave New York?
34551Why do you make such sport of the poor fellow? 34551 Why haf you come, when I write you you must not?"
34551Why should you be so precious careful of the rich?
34551Why, certainly,the young man replied;"do n''t you remember I was with father when he took you hunting four years ago?
34551Will the prince study botany with us?
34551Will you do it?
34551Will you remember me then, Giacomo?
34551Will you to see ze little chamber of ze petit prince?
34551Winnie, Winnie, have you gone wild?
34551Would n''t it be sweet to have Guinevere wear one? 34551 Would n''t it have been better for you both if you had remained at Madame Céleste''s, and had sent Jim to boarding- school?
34551Would you like to have me make the costume in tissue- paper?
34551Would you really like to know the rates at which I work?
34551Yes, but the lessons; when are they to be learned? 34551 You are quite sure,"Mr. Armstrong asked,"that you never saw this check, which someone has cashed at the bank, and which is indorsed with your name?"
34551You are the machinist who lives on the top floor?
34551You do n''t suppose that I would hire a dress for the concert at a costumer''s?
34551You do not live here?
34551You mean his identity?
34551You pay his board directly to Miss Prillwitz, I suppose?
34551You poor child, what can it be?
34551You will send Jim with the paper pattern to- night?
34551You would like to be a cow- boy, would n''t you, Jim?
34551Adelaide sniffed the air, and remarked,"Girls, do n''t you smell something very nice?"
34551All you''ve got to do is to stay here for a few days-- and where could you be better off?
34551And Guinevere''s gown?
34551And I might have added,"How could I, when my allowance for spending- money is hardly sufficient to keep me in slate- pencils?"
34551And now, Winnie, what do you say to my being too sure about visiting him some day?
34551And, Tib, if there had not been, where would have been the harm in what I did?"
34551Are you in trouble?"
34551Ca n''t you stop them?"
34551Can he come with me?
34551Can she make ozzer sings as ze croquettes of codfish?"
34551Can we bear The sweet looks of our own children?
34551Can we smooth down the bright hair, O my sisters, calm, unthrilled in Our hearts''pulses?
34551Can you climb up there to- day as nimbly as you did four years ago?"
34551Can you give me her address?
34551Curtiss?"
34551Did you notice the elegance of his manners and the brilliancy of his wit?"
34551Do n''t you ever feel so?"
34551Do n''t you remember what a lot of tickets she sold for the theatricals?
34551Do you imagine that this story of Miss Prillwitz''s is only a fabrication?"
34551Do you know her?
34551Do you know of any boarding- school that would have taken him at those rates?"
34551Do you suppose that if I hand the tangle I have made right to God, he will take it from my hands and straighten it out for me?
34551Halsey?"
34551Have Jim''s expectations been raised?
34551Have n''t you heard?
34551Have you noticed that the girls place a fresh bouquet at her plate every morning?
34551He listened in a stupefied way, and seeing that he was not inclined to speak, she ran on,"And is n''t it beautiful about Lovey?"
34551How can he now, when the land belongs as much to every lazy Indian in the tribe as to himself?
34551I asked;"you do n''t mean to tell me that they escaped?"
34551I cried,"what made you tell a lie for me?
34551I remember it so well; and shall we hear the surf?
34551I shall expect to myself a company, and this is to me so seldom that I find myself_ égaré_--what you call it?--scatter?
34551I suppose you are all Episcopalians in New York?"
34551I want to catch the next train for New York-- none until 4 o''clock?
34551Jim asked--"mother''s and mine?"
34551Just now it was a mystery-- and what so dear to a girl''s imagination?
34551Nothing else?
34551Now do you sink you make five hundred dollar from your fair?"
34551O sir, is it possible that the Government has sent you to begin this division?"
34551Oh Miss Prillwitz, how could you make up such a story?"
34551Oh, what is it?"
34551Oh, when was it, where was it, that I knew it all?"
34551Perhaps you petter go in de sewing- room, ai n''t it?"
34551Please, Mrs. Halsey, may n''t he come?"
34551See, how do you like this effect?"
34551She was fitting the dress to me, and as this would take several minutes, Winnie asked,"Who is Jim?"
34551Smiss?"
34551So you are inventing a new torpedo, which you mean to sell the Government?
34551Stephen Trimble gave one exclamation of horror-- then asked,"What''s he done?"
34551The daughter, little Rosaria, is pretty, is she not?"
34551The valley in which my other corn is planted is in that direction, and perhaps you will let me bring some of it in your wagon when we come back?"
34551Then broke in a chorus of voices--"How did you ever get out of the house?"
34551To be arrested and sent to prison?"
34551Was it possible that they still lived?
34551Was the vase a keepsake or anything?
34551We all looked our interest, and Winnie ventured to ask--"One of your relations, Miss Prillwitz?"
34551Well, if you are not the bloated bondholder we took you for, perhaps you''ll consider our little offer?"
34551What did you want of him?"
34551What do you call your link?"
34551What do you think of it, Jim?"
34551What ever made you do such a thing?
34551What is the matter?
34551What will Adelaide say now about blue blood telling even in low circumstances?
34551What will you charge?"
34551What would Madame say?
34551Where did you say she could be found?"
34551Whom shall we ask?"
34551Will he be greatly disappointed, and will the prince be very angry?"
34551Will you forget your old friends then?"
34551Winnie caught her arm and asked,"Was that the prince, the elder brother?"
34551You have not, then, understand zat dis elder brother is ze Lord Christ?
34551You''ve heard of the submarine torpedoes that did such good service in blowing up the Turkish ships in the Russo- Turkish war?"
34551and how did you manage to do it?"
34551and what had ten years of separation done for them?
34551ca n''t you see that the staircase has gone, and that they are coming down the fire- escape?
34551cried Winnie;"and how many can you make in a day?"
34551do you acknowledge that you are common burglars?"
34551have you eaten them all?
34551in Pennsylvania Railroad stock, what was my original investment?''
34551is it a ghost?"
34551is this Stephen Trimble?"
34551our gallant captain cried, Blow high, blow low, so sailed we;''Are you a man- of- war, or a privateer?''
34551she asked;"are you a King''s Daughter?"
34551she would exclaim,"how can you lie like that; and you a church- member?"
34551the girl replied, indignantly;"you did n''t s''pose we all wore wigs, did you?"
34551will you give me your name?
34551zat ze beautiful country is Heaven?
43765A mystery?
43765After you had arrived at your present boarding- house?
43765And Goodlove-- is he in jail?
43765And can you succeed as you have in recovering this property?
43765And has she intimated that you had better find another home?
43765And it has been stolen?
43765And no one screamed in this house?
43765And you had no suspicion?
43765And you have promised to recover her bonds?
43765And you have that box?
43765And you think you will not be able to pay her?
43765And you want me to aid you?
43765Are all the windows tightly closed?
43765Are you a maniac or a rogue?
43765Are you dead gone so soon?
43765Are you in trouble, miss?
43765Are you sure it is safe?
43765Are you sure you have the right house?
43765At what hour?
43765But are you sure you have the proof?
43765But that box, Ike?
43765But why does the man follow her?
43765But, madam, who is it insulting me?
43765Can I advise?
43765Can it be possible,asked the landlady,"that the new boarder is a detective?"
43765Did I ever have any dealings with you?
43765Did I not promise that I would recover it for you?
43765Did he deny knowing about you?
43765Did he go to California?
43765Did n''t you hear the cry?
43765Did you hear the cries of''fire, fire?''
43765Did you not ask him about your parentage?
43765Did you tell any one else in the house about your loss save the landlady?
43765Did you?
43765Do n''t you like it?
43765Do you anticipate the news I have to tell you?
43765Do you know anything about that picture?
43765Do you live in the city?
43765Do you mean to tell me you did not yell fire?
43765Do you not think it risky?
43765Do you think there is a fire?
43765Do you think we were in it?
43765Do you want an answer?
43765Does he accept the proof?
43765Does he know about me?
43765Eh, Jack, do you fear? 43765 From what room did the cry come?"
43765Have you a plan?
43765Have you gone crazy?
43765Have you talked much to the detectives?
43765He was the thief?
43765Hello, Ike,said Jack;"what''s that?"
43765How are you going to find out all about it, sergeant?
43765How can I when she is veiled?
43765How can we do it?
43765How can you ask such a question? 43765 How can you do it?"
43765How do I know?
43765How do you intend to make a division?
43765How do you know?
43765How is it I need you?
43765How much money did you have?
43765How?
43765How?
43765How?
43765How?
43765How?
43765I ca n''t?
43765I do?
43765If I surrender it will you let me off?
43765Is he a Frenchman?
43765Is it possible I have made a mistake?
43765Is it possible?
43765Is there a fire anywhere around here?
43765Is there a fire in your house?
43765Is there any one in the house whom you suspect?
43765Is there?
43765Is what the case?
43765Is your real name Sidney?
43765It is?
43765Mr. Goodlove knows better than any one else that Miss Sidney was robbed; why does he pretend ignorance as to the cause of her leaving?
43765Nimble Ike?
43765No fire?
43765Say, sergeant, let me ask you one question: Have you received orders to test our department by these false alarms?
43765Say, young man, what is it you are trying to accomplish?
43765Shall I speak right out?
43765Shall I tell you my story?
43765Shall we be locked up and raise old Cain in the station house, or shall we make these officers dance right here?
43765She is?
43765Sneak in?
43765Strange that you were found out?
43765Suppose she does plunge into the lake?
43765That old miser is my uncle?
43765That''s so; but do you see that lady''s excitement?
43765The veiled lady?
43765Then what do you propose to do?
43765Then why did you force yourself into my house?
43765Then why do you ask me who she is?
43765Then why in thunder did you yell''fire, fire?''
43765Then you have decided on a plan?
43765They are not officers?
43765To aid me?
43765Well, what about the box?
43765Well?
43765What are you on to?
43765What business is it of yours who the lady is?
43765What do you mean, Ike?
43765What do you mean, Iky?
43765What do you mean?
43765What do you mean?
43765What do you think?
43765What do you want-- the earth?
43765What fire?
43765What have you found?
43765What is all this ado about, anyhow?
43765What is so strange?
43765What is the lay?
43765What is the matter?
43765What is the mystery?
43765What is your plan for a starter?
43765What is your plan?
43765What is your plan?
43765What makes you so certain?
43765What makes you think so? 43765 What reason did she give for going?"
43765What shall we do?
43765What will you do?
43765What will you give?
43765When does he start in?
43765When will you start in?
43765When?
43765Where are you going?
43765Where has she gone?
43765Where is your proof?
43765Where will we meet?
43765Where?
43765Who are you fellows anyhow?
43765Who are you talking to?
43765Who are you, young man?
43765Who are you?
43765Who is the person?
43765Who says I stole the bonds?
43765Who says so?
43765Who spoke then?
43765Who spoke?
43765Who was it screamed?
43765Who was the guilty party?
43765Who was the thief?
43765Whom would you suspect?
43765Why did I tell you?
43765Why not?
43765Why should you take all this trouble on my behalf?
43765Why, partner?
43765Why?
43765Why?
43765Will we? 43765 Will you explain your words?"
43765Will you tell me your plan?
43765Will you visit me at my home?
43765Will your man be on hand?
43765Would you like to meet him?
43765Would you sneak in if you had a plan?
43765Yes; did you?
43765You are?
43765You are?
43765You are?
43765You are?
43765You call me a scoundrel?
43765You can?
43765You did?
43765You discern why I told?
43765You do?
43765You do?
43765You have absolute proof?
43765You laugh at me, you young rascals?
43765You never opened it?
43765You promise?
43765You say there''s bigger game in this house?
43765You think so?
43765You want an answer to your question?
43765You will convince me?
43765You will recover them?
43765You will?
43765You will?
43765You will?
43765You will?
43765All business came to a standstill and the question arose, who was doing the barking, the squealing, the cackling and the quacking?
43765And now can I advise you?"
43765Are you really not Miss Galt?"
43765At that moment there came a voice asking:"Why do n''t you rap that dude on the head?"
43765But let me ask you, is this your first offense?
43765But what do you think of that picture?"
43765But will you tell me how you managed to recover my bonds?"
43765Can we call and see you occasionally?"
43765Do n''t you fellows try to rob me, do you hear?"
43765Do you know what it means to be alone in the world?"
43765Have you any recollection of the appearance of either of the men?"
43765Have you fallen in love with her?"
43765He apologized to the owner of the house, went down among his men and asked:"Did you men hear those screams?"
43765He did not say anything direct, but did project:"Suppose you should find your uncle, and he should disapprove of your plans?"
43765He drew his mask lantern and the old man asked:"Are you a detective?"
43765He held some further talk with the girl, and then asked:"What is your name?"
43765He just stood and gazed, when another of the youths appeared to say:"Charley, why do n''t you smash Decker in the jaw?
43765He said:"You two young rascals, how dare you address me?"
43765How did you do it?"
43765I ca n''t stop to tell you now; but who is that fellow?
43765I wonder if that fellow is acquainted with the girl, or is merely following her on speculation?"
43765I wonder if we can get in on this job with any hope of success?"
43765Ike asked by signal:"What shall we do?"
43765Ike did not conclude to reveal his identity at once, and met the question with a similar one:"Say, young fellow, who are you?"
43765Ike''s eyes brightened up as he asked:"And what is your suspicion?"
43765Is your real name Ward?"
43765It was too late to avoid them, but they did ask:"What is that?"
43765No; but what did you mean by yelling fire?"
43765Now what is your decision?
43765Of whom?"
43765Old man, see here; do you want to be locked up?
43765Once out of sight Jack asked:"What happened; Ike?"
43765One day Jack asked:"Ike, are you sure you have the right man?"
43765Our hero had not seen his face; he could not be the vocal deceiver, however, and the question arose, Who had performed this marvelous trick?
43765Sara was thoughtful a moment and then asked:"Are you sure he is my uncle?"
43765She could not speak for a full minute, but when she did find voice she exclaimed:"And you really have recovered all my property?"
43765Smith?"
43765The door of the house was opened by a gentleman enveloped in a dressing- gown, who in great excitement demanded:"What in thunder do you want?"
43765The dude looked around to learn who had offered the bold suggestion, and then demanded:"Who spoke then?"
43765The fellow looked over at Ike sharply and said:"Say, my friend, did you notice who used the insulting language?"
43765The foreman of the engine company approached and demanded:"Where is the fire?"
43765The girl looked the two handsome lads over, and again she murmured, as though unable to control her emotions:"Oh, what shall I do?"
43765The girl rose as though to walk away, when the man said:"Excuse me, but are you sure you are not playing me a little trick?
43765The girl stood and gazed in silence a moment and then said:"I thank you,"and involuntarily she added:"Oh, what shall I do?"
43765The ladies did not answer, and the professor again inquired:"Were you scared by my demonstration or did you, ah-- ah-- well, did you hear a voice?"
43765The landlady''s face flushed scarlet as she said:"Who made the statement?"
43765The man Goodlove looked at her and demanded:"Do you dare say I made the statement?"
43765The man managed to gasp:"What do you mean?"
43765The man wilted as he asked:"Did Miss Sidney hint that I was the robber?"
43765The old man showed signs of great excitement as he demanded:"What business is it of yours who I am?"
43765The old man uttered a cry, and advancing toward Ike seized his arm and demanded:"What do you mean?
43765The old man was very thoughtful for some moments but finally he said:"Can I trust you, young man?"
43765The roundsman was a friend of the two men who had been sent to the station house in disgrace, and he again asked:"How about Jones and O''Brien?"
43765The sergeant at the desk came rushing forth, demanding:"What''s the matter?
43765The woman laid the certificates on the table and the man said:"Where are the jewels and the money?"
43765The young man was thoughtful a moment, and then asked:"When did she go?"
43765There came a voice demanding, when Goodlove said she had no gold:"How do you know?
43765They stood and trembled involuntarily, and the dog continued:"Oh, is n''t it dead easy?
43765To- morrow I will return the stolen property to the owner, and then----""What then?"
43765Ward?"
43765Were you rummaging in her trunk?"
43765What I desire to know is, who is the lady whose portrait I see here?"
43765What are you all standing here for?"
43765What business has he to come around here and interfere with our fun?"
43765What do you mean?"
43765What do you want me to tell you?"
43765What is the matter with you?"
43765What scared you?"
43765When can I see her?"
43765When did you last see your bonds?"
43765When will you see me again?"
43765When will you work the racket?"
43765Where are the bonds you stole from Miss Sidney''s trunk, and the money?"
43765Where''s the fire?
43765Who are you?"
43765Who is to blame?"
43765Who is your new boarder?"
43765Who says I did?"
43765Who was it?
43765Why do you disturb that poor old Egyptian who has been asleep for over three thousand years?"
43765Will you go to jail or surrender the stolen property?"
43765With equal excitement the sergeant demanded:"Where is the fire?"
43765You have found him?"
43765You know me, do n''t you?"
43765You remember a great wedding we had in New York about ten years ago?"
43765You say you know one for whom that picture might be accepted as the portrait?"
43765is that the case, Ike?"
43765said Ike, and he asked:"Where did the struggle take place?"
43765what are you about?"
43765what are you doing in there?"
43765you scoundrel, what are you doing?"
14630After retiring bell? 14630 Ai n''t he a scoundrel?"
14630Ai n''t ye got a dog, Preston? 14630 And I expect you''d rather work in the woods than anywhere else?"
14630And Tom?
14630And did n''t any of you think how we were going to get back to shore?
14630And draw that constable right to this place where you want to leave Jerry''s tin box?
14630And how did you get back here to Cliff Island?
14630And if he do n''t appear, what then?
14630And if that''s so, then the boss has n''t got a clear title to Cliff Island-- eh?
14630And this is the young lady who spoke a good word for the boy in the first place?
14630And yet you have n''t found the box you say your uncle hid?
14630And you''ve lived in the woods?
14630And your father has just bought it?
14630Anybody from the house?
14630Aw, what''s the odds?
14630But how did you find your way back here to the island?
14630But how, Tom? 14630 But may I talk with him about you?"
14630But on what charge?
14630But suppose something happens to him?
14630But the title to the island?
14630But what can you expect from a lot of rubes?
14630But what''s become of him?
14630But you have n''t got to tramp it, now?
14630But you know the other way out, Ruthie?
14630But-- can you carry me?
14630Ca n''t a boy be lost?
14630Ca n''t we lift him into the car? 14630 Can it be some wild animal?"
14630Caves? 14630 Cliff Island?"
14630Did I? 14630 Did n''t I tell you we all want to help you?"
14630Did n''t you know_ that_? 14630 Did n''t you live anywhere else but in the woods?"
14630Did that Jerry Sheming bring you?
14630Do I?
14630Do n''t you know it will soon be night? 14630 Do n''t you men know that Cliff Island is private property?
14630Do n''t you see that the girls will give out before we''re half- way there? 14630 Do you know him?"
14630Do you see who is going to head the party? 14630 Do you suppose those horrid men will find Jerry?"
14630Do you suppose we could find torchwood in that pile yonder?
14630Does this-- this_ tyke_ belong in here?
14630For to put up tramps?
14630Goin''to have Preston send that boy back to the mainland?
14630Have you done what I tol''you? 14630 He is a dangerous man, then?"
14630How about it, Ruth?
14630How can he? 14630 How can you get lost-- with us fellows along?"
14630How can you?
14630How could I hide him?
14630How did that come out? 14630 How did you do that?"
14630How do you expect us to see?
14630How long do you suppose we would exist on these rations?
14630How shall we find our way, though, if it''s dark?
14630How under the sun did you suppose a thing like this was going to be propelled?
14630How would he know the way to get into this tunnel?
14630How would you?
14630How''ll we see our way?
14630How? 14630 How?"
14630How?
14630I do n''t believe you belong near here?
14630I suppose Fielding has made her a Sweetbriar already-- eh?
14630I suppose the doctors are busy up there with other passengers?
14630I suppose we must take him?
14630I thought you said you could find the way?
14630I wanter know why not? 14630 I''d like to know what ye call it, Niece Ruth?"
14630I''d look nice; would n''t I?
14630Is n''t he a snarly old customer?
14630Is n''t that a coincidence?
14630Is n''t that mean?
14630Is n''t''Ann Hicks''sensible- sounding enough? 14630 Is there room for him?"
14630Is this the girl who is interested in Jerry?
14630It could n''t be anybody hunting us, do you suppose?
14630Like a box of money, or papers?
14630Looking for work, you said?
14630Lots of people were hurt in the cars a good deal worse than Mr.--Mr.----?
14630Narrows the choice down, and we''ll be surer of hitting the right one-- eh, Ruthie?
14630Not as far as Montana? 14630 Now we''re all right, are we, Ruth?"
14630Now what, Ruthie?
14630Now, you would n''t refuse a job with Mr. Tingley; would you?
14630Of a strained leg?
14630Oh, is n''t it a mean, mean shame?
14630Ready all? 14630 Remember the spill I had with Ruth and that Heavy girl?
14630Ride? 14630 See yonder?"
14630See''em snickering and grinning? 14630 Shall we get out here, girls?"
14630Shall we stop and make a fire here, girls, and warm up before we return?
14630So you''re Tingley''s lady? 14630 Suppose I could get you a job working right where you''ve always lived-- at Cliff Island?"
14630Suppose Jane Ann does n''t come, Ruth?
14630Take the off one on my team, then----"That old plug? 14630 That puts_ me_ in bad, then-- eh?"
14630The girl I helped through the car window?
14630The island? 14630 There has n''t been a wreck?"
14630They''re coming back?
14630Think-- think I did it on purpose?
14630Threw him off the train?
14630Tingley-- is that the name?
14630Well? 14630 What am I good for if it ai n''t to work?"
14630What are you afraid of, Rufus? 14630 What are you eating, Heavy?"
14630What could have happened to her down there?
14630What crowd is that over at the west end of the island?
14630What d''ye mean-- Cliff Island?
14630What do ye reckon your Aunt Alvirah keeps that spare room for?
14630What do you mean?
14630What do you mean?
14630What do you really suppose has happened to them?
14630What do you reckon your folks will say, Miss?
14630What do you say, Tom?
14630What do you suppose mother will say?
14630What do you want in here? 14630 What do you want of me?"
14630What does it matter if she is n''t quite up to the average yet in recitations? 14630 What does it mean?"
14630What for?
14630What have you to say for your protà © gà © now, Miss?
14630What is it? 14630 What is the matter,_ Bella mia_?"
14630What is the matter?
14630What kind of a menagerie am I supposed to preserve order in----?
14630What kind of water, I''d like to know, Miss?
14630What lake?
14630What rock do you mean?
14630What shall we do? 14630 What will mother and father say if we''re not home by dark?"
14630What will mother say?
14630What will the other folks say?
14630What''s all this shooting about?
14630What''s that?
14630What''s the matter with Ann?
14630What''s up?
14630What, pray?
14630What_ is_ it?
14630Where are you hidin''the rascal?
14630Where did he go?
14630Where is Ruth?
14630Where will he run to?
14630Where''d it go?
14630Where''s the nearest-- and the best?
14630Where-- where are we?
14630Where-- where did it all come from?
14630Where?
14630Which do you suppose he would like best?
14630Which way do we go?
14630Who do you suppose those men are?
14630Who ever heard of water that would n''t freeze?
14630Who is Jerry Sheming?
14630Who is this Rufus Blent?
14630Who''s the old gee- gee with the whiskers?
14630Why let him go, then?
14630Why not?
14630Why should_ that_ make a difference?
14630Why, do you know, I believe if Uncle Pete once had this box in his possession again that he might recover his mind?
14630Why?
14630Why?
14630Why?
14630Will we be breaking the law if we do n''t report this poor fellow to the constable here, if we see him?
14630Will you look out for him, Mr. Cameron, if I leave him in your care?
14630With boots on? 14630 Yes, sir?"
14630You are n''t out of funds? 14630 You are sick, Miss Ruth?"
14630You could find the way through the hill to where you came out of the cave with Jerry; could n''t you, Ruth?
14630You do n''t suppose anything has happened to Ruthie?
14630You do n''t want me, of course?
14630You girls think a lot of each other; do n''t you? 14630 You let me know every few days where you are, Jerry?"
14630You mean on this morning train?
14630You remember that time in the primary grade, just after we''d come here to Briarwood, Belle?
14630You would n''t expect the boat to drift against the current, would you?
14630You''re not so awfully sure; are you?
14630Your uncle''s money?
14630And he a backwoods boy, with two guns?"
14630And of late years he got so queer-- before they took him away----""Took him away?"
14630And this is the girl I have been getting letters about-- Miss Hicks?"
14630And us pulling this sled, too?
14630Are there caves on the island?"
14630Are they after me?"
14630Blent?"
14630Blent?"
14630But how about the girls?"
14630But this poor fellow----""Who is he?"
14630But you think, Ruth, that perhaps it was in this buried cave that old Mr. Tilton hid his money box?"
14630CHAPTER XI A NUMBER OF THINGS There may have been good reason for the teacher to be horrified, but how else was the mustang to be ridden?
14630CHAPTER XVII CHRISTMAS MORNING"How under the sun did you get here, Ruth?"
14630Ca n''t I climb a tree almost as well as Ann Hicks?"
14630Can I ever live up to such an ancestress as_ that_?"
14630Could it be possible that those rough men dared fire their guns at Jerry Sheming?
14630Did you think I could go to Briarwood without you?"
14630Did your uncle have any deed to it?
14630Do n''t you see how dark it is, sis?"
14630Do n''t you see?"
14630Do n''t you, Ralph?"
14630Do you suppose there is any danger?"
14630Eh, girls?"
14630Goin''back to- day, of course, Preston; ai n''t you?"
14630Have you got that Jerry Sheming off the island?
14630He''s left the constable----""Lem Daggett?"
14630Help her?
14630How came you folks in this cave?"
14630How were they going to stand with the teachers?
14630How would the studies be arranged for the coming months of hard work?
14630How would they be treated?
14630I reckon he would n''t believe we had such hunting here in the East-- eh?"
14630Is he off?"
14630Is it some of Blent''s doings?"
14630Is that old Blent up yonder?"
14630Jerry?"
14630Just then Bob looked at his watch in the firelight, and exclaimed:"No wonder it seems dark-- do you know it''s half after four right now?"
14630Mr. Tingley ai n''t coming up to- day?"
14630Must he discharge Jerry because Rufus Blent says so?"
14630Not Ruth Fielding?"
14630Now, what could I have said else?
14630Or do you want me to take it down to the brookside alone?"
14630Or was the poor boy foolish enough to try to frighten his pursuers off with the weapons which Ruth very well knew he had in the cave with him?
14630Ralph is n''t going to get lost-- what d''ye think he is?"
14630Should she know the direct tunnel then?
14630Surely nothing has happened to Jane Ann?"
14630The boy was naturally frightened-- how could he help being?
14630There are n''t any more infants to christen, I hope?"
14630There must be something in this story, or why should"Uncle Pete,"as Jerry called him, have lost his mind over the catastrophe?
14630They ai n''t bound this way, are they?"
14630Tingley?"
14630Tissue paper covered something very choice----?
14630Was she going to school without any real reason for it?
14630What d''ye s''pose is the matter with them?"
14630What do you say, Ruthie?"
14630What do you say?"
14630What do you suppose your father will say to the constable taking the men with him this morning to hunt Jerry down?"
14630What do you think he''ll find?"
14630What has Jerry done?"
14630What island?"
14630What meanest thou, Sir Oracle?"
14630What of that mean old Rufus Blent?"
14630What panther?"
14630When your Uncle Dudley----""But how are we going to warn Jerry to run before this constable catches him?"
14630Where''s she gone?
14630Who are you?"
14630Why did n''t Davison send him to the hospital?
14630Why do n''t you make her behave?
14630Would you go back?"
14630You do n''t suppose the folks will be foolish enough to start out hunting for us till it''s over; do you?"
14630You have money?"
14630You know that my brother is all right again?"
14630You think so, too, Miss Fielding?"
14630You understand?
14630You were the girl who befriended the boy in the first place?"
14630You''re one of those boys staying with the Tingleys?"
14630You''ve heard tell on''t?"
14630You_ can_ fling a rope; ca n''t you, Miss?"
14630can you shoot with that?"
14630do you believe so?"
14630do you really think this is right?"
14630do you take charge here?"
14630ejaculated the somewhat spiteful Mercy,"do you call yourself a female George Washington?"
14630got an infant there?"
14630he is n''t_ dead_?"
14630hear that?"
14630how could her Uncle Bill be so thoughtless as to name her that, when she was left, helpless, to his care?"
14630how deep can that place be?"
14630interrupted Ruth,"What do you mean by that?"
14630it hurt ye, eh?"
14630what do you know about that?"
14630what is it?"
14630what is that?"
14630what shall we do?"
14630what shall we do?"
14630what will he do?"
14630whatever are you doing?"
14630would n''t it make Bashful Ike''s eyes bulge out?
14630you do n''t believe_ that_, Bobbins?"
14630you see what she did?"
43144''As you found''i m whom you loves, mum?
43144''Ave you any more o''that money?
43144''Ow I lives? 43144 ''Ow can I pay you, Janey?"
43144''Ow soon is''ee like to walk in, ma''am?

43144And ef''ee''adn''t, would I bring''i m to Maxey? 43144 And have you come alone?"
43144And he thought, why should he not go back again? 43144 And is he a comin''back any day, ma''am?
43144And shall I see the Queen?
43144And why not, little sweetheart?
43144And will God give me a good time in that place?
43144And you wo n''t come back no more?
43144And you''ll break orf wid Jenks, and be his pardener no more?
43144And you''ll give back the purse and bob to Jenks, and tell''i m yer''ll''ave no more to do wid''is way?
43144And` Sing Glory,''wot''s that?
43144Any cases of interest coming on to- day?
43144Are these the watch and purse?
43144Are you glad, Flo?
43144Are you quite sartin as she ai n''t turnin''round in''er corfin, and cryin''?
43144Are you quite sure?
43144Are you sure?
43144Are you waiting for your mother, my dear?
43144Arter supper?
43144Be hearls the biggest swells?
43144Be yer werry tired, mother?
43144But please, mum,said Flo,"does yer know about Dick?"
43144But wot about the meat and taters?
43144But you has n''t no lad comin''back fur that''ere jacket, ma''am?
43144But, Flo,after a long pause,"is you_ sure_ as mother is n''t ris from her grave?"
43144But-- what had happened?
43144By the way, did you notice Annie, my little servant?
43144Come, that''s werry fine,said the man addressed as Maxey;"but''ow is it, you young willan, you dares to insinniwate as_ I_''ave dog- fights?
43144Darrell, do you know the nature of an oath?
43144Did he tell you why?
43144Did they see you?
43144Did you speak to me, darling?
43144Do you know about God?
43144Do you know how you are to learn?
43144Do you know who God is? 43144 Do you live together-- you and your brother and Jenks?"
43144Do you remember what I said to you when first I asked you to be my servant?
43144Do you want to get well very much, Flo?
43144Does n''t you think that it''ud be better fur the little baby to be up there in the Gold Streets?
43144Does this plan suit you, Flo? 43144 Ef you please, ma''am,"she said,"''tis better fur me to know how much longer am I to have the loan of your bed, ma''am?"
43144Eh?
43144Father''ave beat me hawful; may I come down and set by yer a bit?
43144Flo, shall I give you God''s message?
43144Have you a father and mother?
43144Have you no idea, child? 43144 He does-- does he?
43144How can I tell?
43144How does yer dare say as I''av''n''t a mother? 43144 How much did your purse contain, and what kind of purse was it?"
43144How much''ull he give us, Jenks?
43144How old is the little girl?
43144I say, Flo, would yer like somethink_ real_, not an ony s''pose?
43144I''m a thief,he said without stirring;"you wo n''t let in a thief?"
43144Is mother in the room, Flo?
43144Is queens the biggest of all swells?
43144Is there blue, and yaller, and red, and majinta dresses in them''ere winders, Dick? 43144 Is this the first time you have been here?"
43144Is you dying to- night, mother?
43144Is you in the small- dolls, or the Aunt Sally, or the clothes''brusher''s, or the shoe- blacker''s line, mum?
43144Is you up to a bit o''''joyment this''ere blessed minit, Flo?
43144Is your mistress at home, Annie?
43144Janey?
43144May I come again?
43144May I come down, Flo?
43144Mr Vernon means, what do you do to earn money?
43144Mrs Jenks, ma''am, is you fond of Scamp?
43144No, but_ would_ you, Jenks?
43144No, no, Dick; wot makes you say that? 43144 No,"said Flo;"wot is it?"
43144Now, little girl, what is your name?
43144Now, my Lady Countess, the hearl''s wife, which shall it be? 43144 Oh dear,"said the other child rather patronisingly,"does n''t you know,` Our-- Father-- chart--''eaven''?
43144Or do n''t you want to come and get some breakfast?
43144Please is the Queen coming?
43144Please, ma''am,she said presently,"wot am I to call yer?"
43144Please, mum,said Flo, suddenly starting to her feet, and remembering that she was very hungry,"may I go wid you and''ave some breakfast?
43144S''pose as Scamp beats Maxey''s young''un?
43144Shall I sing it for you?
43144Shall we take orf the dawg now, or in the mornin''?
43144Suppose the Lord hath forgotten to be gracious?
43144Tell me now, what do you know about Dick? 43144 The people, they was pressing hevery way, and the folks was cheerin'', wen-- hall on a sudden--""Well?"
43144Then she do n''t know, Flo?
43144Then why did you wake me, Jenks? 43144 Then, Mrs Jenks, may be yer''d like fur to keep Scamp?"
43144To be dead, Janey, and''avin''a good time?
43144To be my little servant?
43144To live up in the gold streets wid Himself?
43144Two, Miss Mary?
43144Was the best robe, a jacket and trousers and little weskit, ma''am?
43144Well, that is right-- What''s in a name? 43144 Well?"
43144Wen''is best robe is ready, ma''am?
43144Were you with your brother and the other prisoner?
43144What are they called?
43144What do you know about Eve?
43144What do you want it for, dearie?
43144What is that, darling?
43144What things?
43144What were they doing? 43144 Where were you at the time of the Robbery?"
43144Where''ll you be to- morrer, then, mother?
43144Which of the two is your brother?
43144Which should you like best?
43144Who is God?
43144Who is God?
43144Who is Scamp?
43144Who sent you?
43144Why does you say that?
43144Why not at once?
43144Why, wot hever ails you, young''un? 43144 Why?"
43144Will Maxey know which is_ hour_ cellar wid the door shut?
43144Will you bring me to see it, Jenks?
43144Will you tell us precisely what your purse contained, and describe its appearance?
43144Wot ails the young''un?
43144Wot is it, Jenks? 43144 Wot''s glory?"
43144Wot''s the message, mum?
43144Wot''s''is name, ma''am?
43144Wot''s` Read and Pray,''Janey?
43144Wot''s` read and pray''?
43144Wot?
43144Would you let in your own lad?
43144You are going to Wandsworth in the morning-- may I come with you?
43144You was fond of poor Jenks?
43144You wo n''t never do it again?
43144You''ll translate the old boots and shoes wid me fur the next week?
43144''Ow was a_ man_ in yer locked hup cellar?
43144A bone?
43144A masterpiece of art it was-- of art, I say?
43144And if only by stealing they could taste roast goose, was it very wrong, was it wrong at all to steal?
43144And what''s the name of the big fellow?
43144Are you willing when the time comes to try to be a faithful little servant to any master or mistress you may be with?"
43144Besides, even if she could write, would she?
43144Better''n wittles, eh?"
43144But must they both go out into the world again?
43144But the question was not, would he go, but should she take him?
43144But you''re better, ai n''t you, dearie?"
43144Come, that''s lettin yer off cheap, ai n''t it?"
43144Could it be from Dick?
43144Dick, who was also in prison, able to write to another boy?
43144Did he lose it?
43144Did they know that?
43144Did yer foller''i m, Janey?"
43144Do n''t his heavenly Father and his blessed Saviour care more fur the lad than I do?
43144Do we blame them for their social standing?
43144Do you know them?"
43144Do you know what that means, my child?"
43144Does n''t you know as dog- fight''s''gainst the law of the land?
43144Does your brother translate also, Darrell?"
43144Had any nourishment been ever poured down that baby''s throat?
43144Had she ever seen the Queen?
43144Had she forgotten Jenks?
43144Had she, who could do so little for him, any right to take him?
43144How did you spend your time on the Derby Day?"
43144How do the characters in this little story fare now?
43144How had she got here?
43144How was it that in returning from his interview with Maxey his resolutions to do right wavered more and more?
43144How was that supper bought?
43144I say, worn''t they jist prime?"
43144I ses, Flo, would you like to take''i m''ome?"
43144If Dick_ could_"prig"something from that rich and greedy world that was letting them both starve, would it be so very wrong?
43144If there was a good time coming, was it likely that her mother should have lived and died without ever hearing of it?
43144If they could get money for the dog would they not be right to take it?
43144Is it not enough?"
43144Is you a lookin''hout o''the winder fur''i m any day?"
43144Janey,"said Flo, with a great gasp of longing,"_ would n''t_ it be nice to be dead?"
43144Just then another hand was laid on her shoulder, and a gentle voice said--"Is anything the matter, little child?"
43144May I ask if there is hany particular case as you is wanting to hear?"
43144Nevertheless Dick had often passed a day from morning to night without food rather than steal-- why was that?
43144Or suppose He did allow her to go through privations?
43144Perhaps you saw what he did just now?"
43144She had a story-- who has n''t?
43144She had met with sorrow-- who has n''t?
43144Should he go and satisfy this terrible hunger, and feel comfortable once more?
43144Smokin''''ot roast beef and taters, or roast goose full hup to chokin''o''sage and onions?
43144Such as they too wicked for Heaven?
43144Suppose the lad should refuse to come back?"
43144The great, rich people always had the best of everything, why should they not have the best of God''s time too?
43144Then hastening to turn the conversation--"Wot was it as you took, Dick?"
43144Then she added after a pause,"_ Mother_ knowed me age, and she said ef I lived till this month( ai n''t this month June?)
43144They had arranged the whole programme; the carriage was to drive off rapidly-- where?
43144They had heard of it of course, as what London child has not?
43144This corroboration of her desire startled Janey into quiet, and into a subdued--"_ What_, Flo Darrell?"
43144This was the text:"And he said, Who art thou, Lord?
43144Was he not a boy?
43144Was her foot broken?
43144Was it likely, when He was down with her in the dark cellar, that He would allow her to want, or even have things very hard for her?
43144Was it possible that Jenks was a bad boy, and that he was teaching Dick to be a bad boy?
43144Was it possible that Jenks was not honest, and that the delicious supper they had just eaten was not honestly come by?
43144Was she old?
43144Was she young?
43144Was there ever before in the records of man, a London child so outrageously ignorant as this same little Flo?
43144Well, what then?
43144Were''s that ere dawg?
43144What ailed Flo?
43144What could she give Him in return?
43144What day was she glad to see?
43144What do you take me for?
43144What railed Dick?
43144What should he bring her?
43144What were her feelings to Jenks now, that she should show him so great a kindness?
43144What were they saying about the Queen?
43144Where had the money come from?
43144Where was he?
43144Where was she now?
43144Which fine lady''ll yer be?
43144Who are these boys?
43144Who could have written to him?
43144Who was the Queen?
43144Why did Janey go about singing such songs as nobody could understand?
43144Why did he not go?
43144Why did you give him so outlandish a name?
43144Why was this?
43144Why?
43144Wot does I know of such?
43144Wot does yer say to a ghost story?"
43144Wot''ave come o''them, mum, and wot''s to come o''Scamp and me, mum?"
43144Wot''s` Our Father,''Janey?"
43144Would God allow such love as His Son''s love to be trampled on and used slightingly?
43144Would I insult Maxey''s young dawg wid an hout and hout street cur wid no good points?
43144Would she do this, and would he go with her?
43144Would''ee make a swell o''me, missis?"
43144You would n''t like to see the hinside of Newgate fur bringin''this''ere dog to me fur the purpose o''fightin''another dog?
43144You''ll never, wot hever''appins, be jail- birds-- promise me that?"
43144_ Is_ it, Dick?"
43144_ Who_ wrote the letter?
43144_ is_ it the shops, and the picters, and the fine ladies?
43144and is there lace on''em?
43144and is there welwet and silk dresses, Dick?"
43144and was it not one of the first laws of nature that all girls should work and all boys should play?
43144and which of the two is Dick to begin with?"
43144asked Flo, who by this time was very hungry;"ai n''t it nothink but another` s''pose''arter all?"
43144bless yer silly young heyes, where''ud be yer supper ef you did?
43144but would n''t Dick be hangry?"
43144can I abear so big an honour?
43144do we blame them for filling their country with vice and crime?
43144does n''t you know?
43144however had she got here from that cellar where she had lain so ill and unable to move?
43144is it time fur me to begin sellin''?"
43144is it werry jolly?"
43144it worn''t mother come back, wor it?"
43144pray to God-- you knows that?"
43144said Flo;"but is it as yer do n''t find sellin''make?
43144said Jenks eagerly;"you''d like to be bringin''carrots and heggs out o''yer pocket fur supper?
43144said the lady more kindly than ever,"that is the important question, what is to become of you and Scamp?
43144she said,"ai n''t this a stiflin''''ole?
43144were''s that hawful,''owlin''dawg?"
43144what did you see them do?"
43144where do you live?"
43144why did he not at once go?
43144why should she care?
43144wo n''t it be fun to see the bull- dawg a tearin''of''i m?
43144you are his sister too?"
43144you knows--`I''m glad-- I hever--''""` Saw the day''?"
46762''Tis no harm to wish for them; is it, father?
46762A vast improvement, certainly,said Mr. Stanton,"but you ca n''t manage the R''s yet, hey?
46762And Willie?
46762And Willie?
46762And did you make it, too, Starr?
46762And do n''t you feel a bit sorry for her, Maggie?
46762And do n''t you feel very happy with us?
46762And has Willie seen his mother''s face?
46762And has my Bessie nothing to say?
46762And how are the children off for clothes?
46762And how came they in Aunt Patty''s pocket?
46762And how has this come about?
46762And how have you been this long time?
46762And how much is that?
46762And if at first you do n''t succeed, what then?
46762And is he going to, mamma?
46762And is there no one but this little mountebank to look after you?
46762And is there nobody left to take care of you?
46762And shall you ask her, mamma?
46762And shall you call the book''The Happy Family''?
46762And she says, very gentle,''Are you sick?'' 46762 And so you call him your policeman; do you?
46762And then I shall see; sha''n''t I, father? 46762 And what are we to do, Tom?"
46762And what burden have you, dearie?
46762And what does Bessie say?
46762And what if she was Aunt Patty?
46762And what is that?
46762And what is the news?
46762And what is this wonderful favor?
46762And what makes my princess so sad this evening?
46762And what will it be about, Maggie?
46762And when are you going to begin it?
46762And who is the child that was lost?
46762And who said I was going to scold her?
46762And why did you not come to me for help? 46762 And will I see then, mother?"
46762And will she yun away and never be seen again?
46762And will your Aunt Patty be here when he comes, my dear lady?
46762And you have no possible clew to who this person was, Richards?
46762And you thought maybe your lost child was Mrs. Stanton''s granddaughter; did you?
46762Are you going to lose your ears now you have found your eyes? 46762 Are you or papa going to do it, mamma?"
46762Are you the little lady who was lost a couple of months ago?
46762Are you tired of being shut up in the house so long, dear Midget?
46762Aunt Patty,said Bessie at the breakfast- table the next morning,--"Aunt Patty, did you hear what Uncle Ruthven did for us?"
46762Bessie,he said,"did I vex you a little last night?"
46762But do you believe she gave up the grove for that, mamma? 46762 But have n''t we just as good a right to have them as anybody else?"
46762But how came it into your hands?
46762But if Uncle Yuthven did it for a favor to us, why did he not tell us first?
46762But the corners are not half as sharp as they were once; are they, dear?
46762But what caused the trouble?
46762But what made her so unhappy, papa, and why were the boys so afraid of her?
46762But why?
46762But, Maggie, do n''t you think he makes pretty intimate?
46762But, mamma, do you think that was a nice way? 46762 But_ this_ has no bright side; has it, mamma?"
46762Can he go to Sunday- school when he''s blind?
46762Can you find the book for me?
46762Children,said Mr. Bradford, that evening,"who would like to hear a true story?"
46762Course she has; how could she help it?
46762Did n''t I mend it as nice as a new pin?
46762Did not Aleck love her after the fire?
46762Did she take them off your feet, Franky?
46762Do n''t allow what?
46762Do n''t you think you''d be very sad, sir, if you were blind?
46762Do you not know me, Maggie?
46762Do you remember Aunt Patty, my darling?
46762Do you think she has a guilty conscience, Maggie?
46762Do you want anything, Bessie?
46762Does Mrs. Granby live here?
46762Does anything trouble you?
46762Does he not like that?
46762Does she have a great deal of trouble?
46762Every one has; have n''t they?
46762Everybody has some burden; do n''t they, Aunt Patty? 46762 Grandmamma had a letter from him last night, and she said he promised to come before the winter was over; and_ wo n''t_ we all be happy then?"
46762Harry, my boy,said Mrs. Bradford,"this is all so, but how do you happen to know so much about it?"
46762Have you been in any mischief, dear? 46762 Have you offended him?"
46762Heard what?
46762Help me?
46762How are your blind boy and your lame wife and your sick baby, and all your troubles?
46762How could you help it if she wanted to, Maggie?
46762How did they come off then?
46762How do you do, Mr. Station Policeman?
46762How do you know I would?
46762How is he?
46762How is your Willie?
46762How old was she, farher?
46762How precious what is, my darling?
46762How? 46762 I do n''t know,"said Maggie;"how much can he afford?"
46762I guess things ai n''t going just right with you; be they, Sergeant Richards?
46762I wish we could always remember our Father is nigh; do n''t you, Aunt Patty? 46762 Is it a bargain, little ones?
46762Is it a duty story, farher?
46762Is it not pretty, Aunt Patty? 46762 Is that all?"
46762Is that for me?
46762Is the sea at the mountains, papa?
46762It''s true, papa; is it not?
46762Lot''s wife?
46762Maggie, darling, who sends the rain?
46762Maggie, have you forgiven that old woman yet?
46762Maggie,said Bessie,"do you remember about that Patty woman?"
46762Mamma can not kiss you till you are a good boy,said Mrs. Bradford, and repeated her question,"Where are your slippers?"
46762Mamma, did you lend a helping hand?
46762Mamma,Bessie had said afterwards,"do you think Aunt Patty was very grateful for our presents?"
46762Mamma,said Bessie,"do you mean Aunt Bessie is coming to stay with us?"
46762Mamma,said Harry, indignantly,"what do you stand it for?
46762Mamma,said Maggie suddenly, as they were about leaving the table,"do n''t you wish you had forty children?"
46762May I, papa,--may I?
46762Mr. Bradford, I believe, sir?
46762Not mamma?
46762Oh, Maggie, why do n''t somebody come?
46762Oh, do say those words to her?
46762Oh, it has been such a bad day, and we thought it was going to be such a nice one, did n''t we?
46762Oh, that, sir? 46762 Oh, you''re home, be you, Sergeant Richards?"
46762Papa,said Bessie, as her father paused for a moment,"do you mean the story of this passionate child for a lesson to me?"
46762Papa,said Fred, eagerly,"what were the names of these boys and their aunt?"
46762Papa,said Maggie, as her father rose from the table,"do you think there is the least, least hope that it will clear to- day?"
46762Papa,she exclaimed, as Mr. Richards said the last words,"does he really mean that woman went and paid that money for blind Willie to be cured?"
46762Saw what, sonny?
46762So you are very fond of music; are you, Willie?
46762Starr,said Bessie, peeping up in his face,"have you some good news?"
46762That sounds nicer and more booky; do n''t you think so?
46762Was she a relation of yours, papa?
46762Well, dear,she asked, after a moment''s surprised silence,"What is it?"
46762Well,said the colonel, laughing,"neither you nor I shall quarrel with her for that; shall we?
46762What are they, if you are at liberty to speak of them?
46762What becomes of all your r''s? 46762 What did you say?"
46762What did you use to call it?
46762What does he say, Jennie?
46762What does he say, Jennie?
46762What does that mean, Maggie?
46762What has happened to you?
46762What has troubled you, dearest?
46762What is all this about, little one?
46762What is it, Willie?
46762What is my rosebud afraid of?
46762What is that?
46762What is that?
46762What is the matter, Willie?
46762What is the meaning of all this?
46762What is this trash in my basket?
46762What is your lady''s name?
46762What old lady?
46762What shall we do for the blind boy?
46762What woman?
46762What would it look like?
46762What?
46762Where are your slippers, Franky?
46762Where is your mother?
46762Where is your nurse?
46762Who is for a summer among the mountains?
46762Who put it on?
46762Who sha''n''t do what?
46762Who told you that I had any burden to bear, child?
46762Who was that on the stairs?
46762Who''s making that music?
46762Who''s that?
46762Why do n''t they tell Jesus about their troubles, and ask him to help them?
46762Why does Mrs. Bradford invite her when she always makes herself so disagreeable?
46762Why, Bessie, my darling, what is it?
46762Why, Mary, what is it, dear?
46762Will that new foot walk in the street?
46762Will you be our yelations when Uncle Yuthven marries Aunt Bessie?
46762Will you please to walk in?
46762Will you yite a piece that I make up about yourself?
46762Would n''t you like to come out and feel the spring, Willie? 46762 Would you and Jennie like to go down to the parlor and hear it?"
46762Would you, dear?
46762You could n''t do wi''out me very well; could you, morher?
46762You have; have you?
46762You know me then?
46762You say Dr. Schwitz tried to bribe you by saying he would send in no bill, if you allowed his nephew to escape?
46762Young ladies, may I request the honor of your company in my room for a few moments?
46762_ Does_ he, Aunt Bessie?
46762_ You_ could not think of it, I suppose, Maggie?
46762And can we do so, or truly show our love to him, if we hide the services rendered for his sake behind a mask of coldness and reserve?
46762And do n''t you like to know the blue sky is there, and that Jesus is behind it, looking at you and feeling sorry for you?
46762And do you not think it would be very pleasant to have her for your own aunt, and to keep her always with us for our very own?"
46762And how was it with our Maggie?
46762And if he do n''t make them very happy, the faults are a great deal harder to bear; are they not?"
46762And now how was she to undo what she had done, so that Maggie and Bessie might still keep this matter in their own hands?
46762And now would you like this little peace- offering from Uncle Ruthven?"
46762And that tiny quilt was the pride and delight of Jennie''s heart; for had she not put it all together with her own small fingers?
46762And the babies,--would you wish them motherless?
46762And these people were nothing to her; why should she make such a sacrifice for them?
46762And was it possible that this dreadful old woman was really coming again to their house to make a visit?
46762And was it possible?
46762And what would our Jennie do without the little sister that she has such a pride in and lays so many plans for?
46762Are they hopping about like they used to, over the trees, so tame and nice?"
46762Are you his wife, ma''am?"
46762Are you not glad to see me?"
46762Are you not glad?"
46762Are you the little girl that was lost and taken up to the station?"
46762As for poor Mrs. Bradford, it was very mortifying for her; but what was to be done?
46762Aunt Bessie and Uncle Ruthven were there; and what did she see?
46762Aunt Bessie, why did n''t it come?"
46762Aunt Patty is quite too dog- in- the- mangery; is she not?"
46762Bring her doggie,''"said Jennie; then turning to her mother, she asked,"Mother, do you b''lieve you can understand Tommy till I come back?"
46762But I do wish we could really know; do n''t you, Bessie?"
46762But how could she do it?
46762But is not that a sweet hymn to say when we are sorry for our sin, and want him to help and forgive us again?
46762But the question was, how should she get the money back from the doctor without betraying herself to him or some of the family?
46762But who was she, and how did she know so much of my affairs?
46762But you are not going to lose your sight; are you, Bessie?"
46762But, Willie, if he does not see fit to give you back your sight, could you bear it, and try to think that it is his will, and he knows best?"
46762But, dearest children, did we not all determine not to allow ourselves to be irritated and vexed by such things as have taken place this morning?
46762But, mamma, it ca n''t be; can it?
46762Can I be of any service to you, sir?"
46762Can you not imagine that he thought it would be very pleasant for us to be related to you?"
46762Come and look over the balusters, but do n''t let her see you, or else she''ll say,''What are you staring at, child?''"
46762Could n''t you feel a little that way about your mother, Willie?"
46762Did you not see dear Bessie''s wistful look at you as she bade you good- night?
46762Do n''t you think your mother and me would like to see you rigged out like them, if we had the way to do it?
46762Do n''t you wish we lived in the country, father?"
46762Do you not know your Aunt Patty?"
46762Do you remember that God hears you when you say such wicked words?"
46762Do you think Mrs. Richards would be hurt if I offered them to her?
46762Do you think of going there?"
46762Do you wonder that the sight drove her frantic?
46762Doctor, was I just as patient as you wanted me to be?"
46762He knew just what we would like; did he not, mamma?"
46762He would like to know how much you want for it?"
46762Here lives a man named Porter,--you remember him, Aunt Patty?"
46762How comes on the history of the''Complete Family,''Maggie?"
46762How could he save Aleck?
46762How could papa and mamma think it best to allow it?
46762How dare she talk so to you?
46762How is my policeman?"
46762I have, thank God, the means and the time; can you show me where I can best spend them?"
46762I''ll answer for it that those eyes could flash with something besides fun; could they not, papa?"
46762If I find a man to buy your book, will you have it ready, and trust it to me, when I come back?"
46762Is my policeman pretty well?"
46762Is n''t he, Willie?"
46762It was_ you_ sent her, after all, ma''am; was it not?"
46762It''s as the gentleman says,--''bread cast upon the waters;''but who''d ha''thought to see it come back the way it does?
46762Just now-- But how far do your benevolent intentions go?"
46762Mamma, could n''t you help them?''
46762Mamma, do n''t you think papa had better ask him to go back to Africa for a little while?"
46762Mamma, do n''t you think that is plenty of yeasons to be fond of her for?"
46762May I ask who are the''we''who have such a very high opinion of me?"
46762None of us can see Jesus, but we know he sees us and loves us all the same; do n''t we?
46762Now is she not a meddling, aggravating old coon, Aunt Bessie?
46762Now was n''t that pretty?
46762Now we only feel glad, and do n''t you feel glad, too, when you know how happy they all are?"
46762Oh, will I never have to fret to see mother''s face again?"
46762Poorly, eh?"
46762Richards, how are you?"
46762Rush said,"Children, what do you think that burden was?"
46762Rush,"and how could you do all that on one foot?"
46762Schwitz?"
46762She would not be so good and generous; would she?"
46762She, this innocent little one, the darling and pet of all around her, what burden could she have to bear?
46762Should she ask the children for it when they came home?
46762Should she bear the burdens of others only when they did not weigh heavily on herself?
46762Suddenly there came from the door, in clear, childish tones,"Ladies, ladies, does Patty stold oo?
46762That those who stood beside her could scarcely prevent her from throwing herself into those waters which covered all she loved best?
46762Was it not so?"
46762Was it possible?
46762Was it possible?
46762Well, Mary, how has it gone to- day?
46762Well, what does she do, the pretty creature, but just catch herself up in the midst of her grieving and say that bit of a prayer?
46762Were not the branches looped with gay ribbons?
46762What did it matter if one could scarcely tell the pigs from the men?
46762What do you mean by that?"
46762What do you mean, Henry?"
46762What do you say to it?
46762What do you say, Bessie?
46762What is the good of having an old uncle with plenty of money in his pockets, if you do not make him''do charity''for you?
46762What is the matter, Maggie, and where is nurse?"
46762What reward shall I give you for that_ R_uthven?"
46762What should you say to Uncle Horace and Aunt May?"
46762What would I do without you, Mary, dear?
46762When mamma teaches you French, you can not always pronounce the words as she does; can you?"
46762Where are your nurses, that they do not see after you?
46762Who could help it?
46762Why will you not openly share with us the pleasure we must all feel at the blind boy''s restoration to sight?
46762Why, have you seen the child?"
46762Why?
46762Will it be next week, father?"
46762Will it do?"
46762Will she let me touch her?"
46762Will you try if you can be like Benito, and so receive the blessing of Him who says the cup of cold water given in his name shall meet its reward?"
46762Will you wonder if after this Henry felt as if he could never be patient or forbearing enough with this poor unhappy lady?"
46762Would you like to go with her and see the policeman''s children?"
46762Would you not like to go down- stairs, pets, and ask old Dinah to bake a little cake for each of you?
46762Would you not like to go there with all the dear friends, rather than to Quam without them?"
46762You do n''t know if Mrs. Stanton has any relations of the name of Bradford?"
46762You love dear Aunt Bessie very much; do you not?"
46762_ JENNIE''S HOME._"Morher,"said little Jennie Richards,"is n''t it''most time for farher to be home?"
46762and"Why do n''t you let the carriage leave you at the house?"
46762but then that could not be; could it?"
46762exclaimed Bessie, as her mother just then entered the room,"what do you think?
46762or"Is not that pretty?"
46762said Bessie,"what does that mean?"
46762said Fred, in a voice of dismay,"Aunt Patty is not coming here again; is she?
46762said Fred,"anything more?"
46762said her uncle,"so you have come to it at last; have you?
46762said mamma,"is that the way to speak to Aunt Patty?"
46762we are very much_ trialed_; are we not, Maggie?"
46762what is all this about?
46762where have you been?"
36313''Because Ariovistus, King of the Germans, had sat down on their boundaries--''Now, was there anything ever so absurd as that? 36313 ''Bestow them elsewhere?''
36313A professional model? 36313 And I''ve really put this note of yours under the door?"
36313And Polo is the young lady that Miss Milly was lunching so sumptuously on turtle- soup and ice- cream the afternoon I saw you at Sherry''s? 36313 And Professor Waite''s picture of Adelaide?"
36313And did Leo X love her too? 36313 And did they say they attended it?"
36313And how about Professor Waite?
36313And if she refuses me, as she certainly will, may I come to you for the reward of my obedience?
36313And was there during the night that Lawn Tennis slept in this apartment? 36313 And who is this lawn tennis girl?"
36313And whose fault is that?
36313And why is it,asked Mr. Mudge,"that neither Miss Cynthia nor Miss Winnie have mentioned this very suspicious circumstance?"
36313And you are going to invite that hateful, horrid Vaughn girl?
36313And you have used the cabinet since as a depository for your funds?
36313And you never suspected what it was that occurred at the dressmaker''s which displeased Miss Winnie?
36313And you say he wants to see me?
36313And you will make me assurance of your forgiveness?
36313Any better than the club down at the Pier?
36313Any objection to having me read yours?
36313Are n''t you going to compete for the high jump?
36313Are you sure of that?
36313Are you sure of this?
36313But first, Professor, may we be permitted to see the picture which you are preparing for the Academy exhibition?
36313But is the money all there?
36313But she at least sits for the others, does she not? 36313 But you did n''t do it, Milly dear; you surely did not obtain your charity money in any such dishonest way as that?"
36313But you did not suspect her when you discovered that the money was gone?
36313But, Mr. Van Silver, when do you sail? 36313 Ca n''t you find her a pair of rubbers?"
36313Can not? 36313 Can you give me the address of Miss Milly''s dressmaker?
36313Dear, dear, and so we keep a restaurant, do we? 36313 Did I say so?
36313Did I? 36313 Did he?
36313Did n''t I hear him mention the Earl of Cairngorm?
36313Did n''t I just say that I did tell him?
36313Did you come out alone?
36313Did you go to the safe in the night to get that twenty dollar bill which you gave me this morning?
36313Did you hear me moving about in this room?
36313Did you manage to slip it out while we were not looking?
36313Did you mistake it for a dust rag?
36313Did you see Milly take the money?
36313Did you think the thief would help himself again in broad daylight?
36313Did you want him to misunderstand the situation?
36313Do n''t you believe that we interceded with Madame?
36313Do you dare to accuse me?
36313Do you keep your own rubbers?
36313Do you really suspect any one?
36313Do you suppose I am going to leave Jim in this condition?
36313Do you suppose that it could have been one of that band of Italian bravos who has climbed up on the fire- escape and who intends to murder us?
36313Do you suppose, Cynthia Vaughn, that Adelaide would do such a mean thing as not to take the consequences of her own actions?
36313Do you think she has killed herself?
36313Do you think she took it?
36313Do you think so?
36313Does he suspect that she has anything to do with this miserable business?
36313Does n''t he look exactly like a girl?
36313Does she suspect any one?
36313For each other,Madame repeated doubtfully;"but do you never make sketches of them also, Professor?
36313Has Adelaide shown you her brother''s letters?
36313Has Giovanni de''Medici returned it?
36313Has Mr. Mudge gone to interview Celeste?
36313Has not Milly returned yet?
36313Have I ever charged her with anything so dreadful?
36313Have I not tried in every way to keep that suspicion from every one? 36313 Have never either written to her or received letters from her?"
36313Have we two claimants?
36313Have you been playing a trick on me, Adelaide?
36313Have you looked through Cynthia''s things?
36313Have you reason to suspect any one?
36313Have you seen any one go into the studio lately?
36313He said that?
36313Hello, Stacey,he cried,"make that little chap get down off that wheel, will you?
36313Horrid of me, was n''t it? 36313 How about night before last?"
36313How could he believe such a thing?
36313How did it ever come there?
36313How did you know it, anyway?
36313How do you know it?
36313How do you know you ca n''t?
36313How is that?
36313How many more of you young ladies investigated the cabinet during that eventful night? 36313 How much have you, Tib?"
36313How shall I get him to my home?
36313How''s Armstrong?
36313How''s that for the cup?
36313I thought all your money was taken; where did you get enough to pay this bill?
36313I wonder whether I shall be Mrs. Rogers, or Mrs. Smith, or Mrs. What? 36313 I''m there,"Mr. Van Silver replied;"and in return what will you do for me?"
36313If you please Miss, might I take them home to the children?
36313Is it anything which can not wait?
36313Is that the only source of unpleasantness between them?
36313Is this the only picture which you intend to exhibit?
36313It ca n''t be so bad as that,he said;"what do you mean?"
36313Madame Celeste? 36313 Me?
36313Milly''s escape? 36313 Mine?
36313Miss Noakes?
36313No? 36313 Now that we have secured our prisoners, what do you propose to do with them?"
36313O Tib, Tib, why did you ever mention that?
36313Of what manner of use is it for me to remain?
36313Oh, Mr. Van Silver,said Milly,"wo n''t you invite Rosario to take Adelaide''s place?
36313Oh, Winnie,I said,"why did you come in just then?
36313Oh, thank you, Mrs. Roseveldt,Adelaide murmured,"and will you let me come too and nurse him?"
36313One of us, I presume?
36313Played out, are you, Stacey?
36313Really, this is quite too childish; where did you ever get that absurd costume? 36313 Shall I look over the transom?"
36313Shall we not be expelled, sir?
36313That I have loved you from the first moment that I saw you-- desperately, hopelessly?
36313That accident took all the starch out of you, did n''t it?
36313That disposes of one bit of circumstantial evidence,he admitted;"but the other items?"
36313The first question that Mr. Mudge asked was,''Have you any theory or suspicions in regard to this affair, Miss Armstrong?'' 36313 Then Miss Noakes''s statement is substantially correct?"
36313Then this door must have been open all the time, and you have seen no one in the studio?
36313Then this is all you wish to ask me?
36313Then why do you suspect it?
36313Then you could not pay it this afternoon?
36313Those in favor of reporting at once to Madame?
36313Those opposed?
36313Tib,she said,"do you know whatever became of Madame Celeste''s last bill?
36313Was not Professor Waite in the studio at the time that the robbery was committed? 36313 Was that what wakened you?
36313Well, what if they do?
36313Were you rowing with him on the 10th?
36313What about Winnie?
36313What are you doing with my embroidery?
36313What did you find out from Cynthia?
36313What do you mean?
36313What do you mean?
36313What do you mean?
36313What do you say to this Tib Smith? 36313 What does Professor Waite know about the matter?"
36313What does she look like? 36313 What for?"
36313What happened at the dressmaker''s?
36313What if Jim should die? 36313 What interests you particularly in Terwilliger?"
36313What is it, anyway?
36313What is the matter, Winnie?
36313What is the matter?
36313What is the matter?
36313What is your favorite school, Milly? 36313 What is your theory, Adelaide?"
36313What man?
36313What shall we do with Mr. and Mrs. Armstrong and Jim?
36313What was it, Mr. Van Silver?
36313What will you have next?
36313What, yours, Milly?
36313What?
36313When do you intend to give the play? 36313 Where are the other girls?
36313Where did you find it?
36313Where is Milly?
36313Which one?
36313Who is there?
36313Who was that old gentleman who came and spoke to you during the games?
36313Who? 36313 Who?"
36313Whom do you suspect?
36313Why are you always thinking up scrapes for Winnie to get into?
36313Why are you so sure of this?
36313Why did n''t you look and see?
36313Why did n''t you say so before?
36313Why did n''t you tell her so?
36313Why do n''t you eat the macaroons? 36313 Why does n''t Colonel Grey shut him up?"
36313Why have you chosen a blonde for such a character?
36313Why have you sent for me?
36313Why is it that you young ladies have developed an overweening interest in Terwilliger?
36313Why is it,whispered Adelaide,"that Jim has tied a crimson ribbon just below his knee?
36313Why not?
36313Why not?
36313Why not?
36313Why, have you forgotten,Mrs. Roseveldt asked, much surprised,"your old friend Stacey Fitz Simmons is a cadet?"
36313Why, of course? 36313 Why, yes; do n''t you?"
36313Winnie, how did you manage to steal it?
36313Wo n''t I? 36313 Would all of the new house be taken up by the nursery?"
36313Yes, and after that?
36313You dare me to do it?
36313You do n''t mean to say that you are going through all our things?
36313You do n''t mean to say that you are not going to send Miss Milly one of your tickets?
36313You do?
36313You found everything all right, did n''t you?
36313You know that I love you, Adelaide?
36313You think, then, Mr. Mudge, that some one from the outside committed the burglary? 36313 You thought it might throw suspicion on me?"
36313You were watching me all the time, were n''t you, Adelaide?
36313You will go to Mr. Mudge right away, will you not, sister?
36313You will not hurt her feelings by letting her know that you suspect her?
36313You will tell it all to Mr. Mudge, will you not?
36313You, Winnie?
36313Your suspicions?
36313''How should I know, child?''
36313''Men are deceivers ever, are n''t they, Miss Noakes?''
36313A panting boy, lying with his face to the ground, looked up and asked,"What''s up?"
36313Adelaide asked;"enough yet to buy the steamer ticket for the ocean passage?"
36313Adelaide started and Madame asked in awful tones:"Will any young lady present acknowledge that she has written this letter?"
36313And did n''t it?
36313And is n''t that Fighting Gladiator superb?
36313And is that the reason why you wish it to appear that the safe was intact at the time you examined it?"
36313And meantime, how was Professor Waite thriving with his wooing?
36313And she knew it?"
36313And since you give me credit for not encouraging you, rather for striving to keep you from this avowal, why have you spoken?
36313And that Hercules and Vulcan?
36313And what do you suppose it is, Tib?
36313Are you not perfectly convinced?"
36313At what age should you say that one might fall quite seriously and sensibly in love?"
36313But are n''t you going to get down?
36313But did you go to the safe?
36313But really and truly, Winnie, how much of that is true?
36313But what can a fellow do penned up here?"
36313But where is your badge?
36313Can you give him any additional sources of information?"
36313Can you tell me the exact time at which Miss Winnie visited the parlor last night?
36313Columbia, Berkeley, Cutler, Morse?
36313DEAR SISTER: Was n''t the drill splendid?
36313Did I not find the lock of this door in his tool chest?
36313Did n''t you, Miss Cynthia?"
36313Did the girls get the tickets that Jim and I sent?"
36313Did you ever catch an angel asleep?
36313Did you hear it?"
36313Did you see any one in the parlor the night of the robbery?"
36313Do n''t you just dote on pistache?"
36313Do n''t you like them?
36313Do n''t you remember that I was not in the parlor when the head appeared?
36313Do n''t you see it is?
36313Do n''t you think so yourself?"
36313Do n''t you think so?"
36313Do n''t you think that dig about Snooks enjoying the scenery of the back yard was rather good?"
36313Do you believe it, she would not?
36313Do you know him?"
36313Do you know of any reason for the coolness which apparently exists between them?"
36313Do you know what the boys call me now?"
36313Do you realize that my essay is gone?
36313Do you really think Miss Billings will be equal to a wedding dress?"
36313Do you remember the bicycle drill?
36313Green turtle?
36313Had anything happened to bring Professor Waite back earlier than usual, and would our plans miscarry, after all?
36313Had she been listening?
36313Had she heard?
36313Has it been a jovial bird?
36313Have n''t I ferretted it all out well?
36313Have you looked about in the studio for any suspicious circumstances?"
36313Have you lost anything since that eventful night?"
36313Have you seen it?
36313Have you thought of them, Winnie?"
36313He flapped his arms like a rooster about to crow, and yelled across to the drum corps,"Who''s Fitz Simmons?"
36313He looked about him with interest, and asked,"Where is the heroine who performed this astonishing acrobatic feat?
36313His first words were,"When is it that we go to the prison?"
36313How can I ever stand it until morning?"
36313How could she pay Celeste?"
36313How did you find it out?"
36313How do you know it?"
36313How does she dress?"
36313How else could it have vanished with all of us on the watch?"
36313How long an interval was there, Miss De Witt, between the time that Miss Roseveldt returned to her bedroom, and your examination of the cabinet?"
36313How much do you s''pose now, a lunch would cost in that there palace?"
36313How terribly long he lay there-- could anything serious be the matter?
36313How would the studio do?"
36313I asked relentlessly,"Was Milly at the safe during the night at some time earlier than you and Cynthia?"
36313I asked, with as much boldness as I could muster;"and what do you want?"
36313I did n''t think he saw me till I heard him say,"How''s that, dear boy?"
36313I''m too old, am I?
36313In the sewers, or the cathedral crypts?"
36313Is it a customary form of exercise with you young ladies?"
36313Is n''t it the most likely way in the world that it could have happened?
36313Is there any way in which we can ascertain whether any one was in the studio between twelve and a quarter past?"
36313It is perfectly evident that he could not have taken the money; but the question still remains, Who did?
36313May I have the pleasure of driving you out on my coach?"
36313Milly?"
36313Mudge?"
36313Now Winnie, will you please tell us why the police should not take this matter in charge?
36313One day when Polo was present, Jim suddenly asked Adelaide,"Say, sister, did the boys really go to your cat- combing party?"
36313Professor Waite and his friend had gone, why had not Winnie returned?
36313Say, is it a go?"
36313She is just about as pleasant a companion as that Florentine monk-- what''s his name?
36313Six months your senior, is he not?
36313Then I am the one whom she suspects, and not-- you are sure she saw no one else?"
36313Then she glanced around the room again and asked,"Are all of the art students present?
36313Those in favor of reporting this matter at once to Madame, please say''Ay;''those opposed, the contrary sign-- but first, any remarks?"
36313Though Professor Waite did not usually spend his evenings in the studio, did he not occasionally drop in on his way home?
36313Was Raphael really engaged?"
36313Was it to shield Milly, and how?"
36313Was n''t the Bishop too longsome for anything?
36313Well, and what happened next?"
36313What are the boys doing now?"
36313What are you going to do during the summer?"
36313What are yours, Tib?"
36313What assurance have we that he did not attend it with Terwilliger as his companion?
36313What could be the matter?
36313What do you mean?"
36313What does Cynthia know?
36313What has happened?
36313What has she told?"
36313What is it?"
36313What made you think of this opportunity for Professor Waite?"
36313What makes me think so?
36313What more could he ask?"
36313What more natural than that the thief would pretend to be an innocent sufferer and steal from herself?
36313What name will the next wave bring to the surface?
36313What stronger proof do we require?"
36313What time does he usually arrive?"
36313What''s he thinking of to let Harrison pass him?"
36313What''s that?"
36313What''s the matter with Armstrong?
36313When I can never love her?"
36313Where will you have your refreshments?"
36313Where will you hold the fair?"
36313Where''s it to be?
36313Where?
36313Which flavor do you prefer?"
36313Which side won?"
36313Who has charged me with such a clandestine and dishonourable act?"
36313Who is Polo?
36313Who is she, anyway?"
36313Who knows?"
36313Who knowses?
36313Why could n''t you let it alone?"
36313Why did n''t you tell us that you meant to do anything so lovely?
36313Why did old Ariovistus want to sit down on their boundaries?"
36313Why did you leave me out?"
36313Why do you all look so solemn?
36313Why do you ask?"
36313Why not?"
36313Will you kindly ask her to come to me?"
36313Will you kindly lend me all your keys?"
36313Winnie covered her face with her handkerchief and shook-- could it be with suppressed laughter?
36313Winnie, what makes you sit over there like a sphinx, with your nose touched with sunrise?
36313Wo n''t you introduce me to your friends?"
36313Wo n''t you wrestle with her, Adelaide?"
36313Would I not be a murderer?"
36313Would you rather have kisses?"
36313You love me?
36313You would always like me, would n''t you, even if I were real wicked?"
36313and how comes it that you were walking with such a questionable character?"
36313and if not what right have you to make fun of me?
36313he exclaimed,"what are you all doing in the studio at this time of night?
36313is Polo here?"
36313is it really you?
36313laughed Winnie;"ca n''t you tell when I''m joking?
36313my darling, my darling,"she sobbed;"can you ever forgive me for believing you capable of so dreadful a thing?
36313the Sand- flies?
36313what shall I do?
36313what shall I do?"
34218''By Thetis''tinsel- slippered feet, And the songs of Sirens sweet''-- Is n''t that lovely, Jack?
34218AND you really seriously intend passing the winter here?
34218After the fiddler, do you mean, dear? 34218 Ai n''t that thoughtful?
34218All what?
34218Am I really improving? 34218 And Rose?"
34218And do you love me, Purple Maid?
34218And even if so? 34218 And he is Giuseppe?"
34218And he is n''t willing?
34218And how do you expect to kill time in your wilderness?
34218And she died young, you say? 34218 And what did you say to the young lady, Master Jack?"
34218And what is to be done, Mammina?
34218And who asked you to believe it of me, pray?
34218And-- and did you care for study?
34218And-- and where did you pick up this child?
34218And_ then_ what happened? 34218 Are n''t you going to speak to me, Hugh?"
34218Are you awake, Biddy?
34218Are you goin''to sit here all day talkin''about women''s folderols? 34218 Are you going home now?"
34218Are you ready?
34218Are you so very busy?
34218Are you sure? 34218 Aunt Martha?"
34218Awfully kind, and he loves my father, and I know he wants to do things for me; but-- it all has to be done in his way, do n''t you see? 34218 Because-- you wo n''t mind?
34218But how was it possible?
34218But why''Purple Maid''?
34218But, Hildegarde, be serious now, will you? 34218 But_ what_ is it?"
34218Ca n''t you come out in the garden? 34218 Can it be true?
34218Can you play''The Harp of Tara''?
34218Caring about dress, and looks, and that sort of thing? 34218 Compare music, lovely music, that cheers and comforts and delights all the world, with fierce, cruel, dreadful war?
34218Cook what? 34218 Depart, do you hear?
34218Did n''t you?
34218Did you like Madame Vivien''s school?
34218Did you like dancing- school?
34218Did you wear crinoline?
34218Did your uncle say that to you?
34218Do n''t you know about your Mother dear Jerusalem?
34218Do n''t you see her coming?
34218Do you dare call_ me_ a goose, sir?
34218Do you mean to say that you are a flat surface, like a playing- card, with''music''painted on you?
34218Do you mind if I pull the cat''s tail, Biddy?
34218Do you play tennis?
34218Do you realise, by the way, that we shall live chiefly on this piazza?
34218Do you see that dark round place where it is deep, Merlin?
34218Do you think it is a nice name?
34218Do you think that under there lives a fair woman with green hair, who takes a person by the hand, and kisses him, and pulls him down? 34218 Do you think they mind waiting for me very much?
34218Do you-- do you suppose he knows anything about-- about his sister''s little boy?
34218Does the roof need shingling?
34218Girls like me, or slender old spinsters, like the chairs and the piano? 34218 Has my hair turned to snakes, Hilda, or what is there so frightful in my appearance?
34218Have you been studying it long?
34218He was born for music, was he not?
34218He? 34218 Her child?"
34218Here we are, eh? 34218 His tail over the reins, is it?
34218How could you leave the lovely things? 34218 How did you discover their names?"
34218How did you know?
34218How do you do?
34218How do you know?
34218How long is it, dear?
34218How no good to you?
34218How-- where did you come from? 34218 How_ could_ their mothers let them?"
34218Hugh?
34218I did n''t mean-- that is-- and is that all the relatives you have, Biddy?
34218I had been walking fast, but was I actually purple, Hugh?
34218I wonder if the funny things are still in it? 34218 I-- see how it is?"
34218If I thought that, Master Jack, I''d-- I''d-- why, what''s the matter, sir?
34218If a man is going to_ be_ anything, who cares how he bows? 34218 If my nephew was born for a fiddler, what then, Miss Hildegarde Grahame?
34218If you lived here, you would break all the flowers off, I suppose, and pull''em to pieces to see how they grow; eh?
34218Is it fun sitting there?
34218Is it possible?
34218Is it red flannel you mean? 34218 Is it the ostrich gentleman?"
34218Is n''t it, Merlin? 34218 Is that Colonel Ferrers?
34218Is that what you did when you were a little boy?
34218Is your name Saul?
34218Is your name Saul?
34218It is almost better than the mouth dinner, is n''t it?
34218It would leap like an unicorn, would n''t it, if he played those beautiful things which he just played?
34218Kill him?
34218Ma''am?
34218Merlin is your dog?
34218Miss Wayland, over in Dorset? 34218 My_ dear_ Jack,"she cried,"how shall I tell you how sorry I am?"
34218No end?
34218Not Mr. Loftus at the Poplars?
34218Not your wits, for example? 34218 Now, whose turn is it to sweep up the threads and scraps?
34218Now,he said, turning to the child,"what do you mean, child, by what you said just now?
34218Of course he is; a combination of angel and-- why did you say''with his head in his pocket,''Biddy?
34218Of course she is; but will she?
34218Of what kind?
34218Oh, ai n''t them pretty?
34218Oh-- don''t you think it''s time to go on to B?
34218Plates and all?
34218Poetry? 34218 Saul among the prophets, eh?"
34218Shall I ever learn,she thought remorsefully,"not to make these ridiculous judgments of people, before I know anything about them?"
34218Shall I run with Merlin?
34218Shall we be Tybalts or Mercutios?
34218She drove peacocks, did n''t she? 34218 Suppose some one should come by and see you?"
34218Tea is ready, you say, Janet?
34218The eagle?
34218The question is, What nest?
34218Then do you think about fishes?
34218They may have_ all_ the stalled oxes themselves, may n''t they, great- aunt? 34218 This is your own domain, is n''t it?"
34218Vesta, did you try the honey candy?
34218Was it you?
34218Were they fair as the moon, clear as the sun?
34218Were they girls, do you suppose?
34218What are you doing?
34218What do you mean, about Saul-- eh?
34218What does it sound like?
34218What have you found, darling?
34218What is it, anyhow?
34218What is it, my dear?
34218What is it?
34218What is it?
34218What is it?
34218What is it?
34218What is there to care for? 34218 What kind do you like best?"
34218What then?
34218What''s the difference?
34218What-- what is this?
34218What_ do_ you do?
34218What_ have_ you been doing here, Hilda?
34218Where art thou, tub of my heart?
34218Where did you find those sweet words, Sir Hugh?
34218Where is it? 34218 Where is your mother?"
34218Where on earth did he get hold of that? 34218 Which do you admire most, Worth or Felix?"
34218Who are you, boy?
34218Who cares?
34218Who else would think of all these pleasant bits of information? 34218 Who is it?"
34218Who is saying anything against him?
34218Who lives in the large new house across the way?
34218Why Hesketh?
34218Why did I tell them?
34218Why did you move?
34218Why do I always get that wrong? 34218 Why do you be sad?"
34218Why should n''t I amuse myself? 34218 Why, boys do love questions, do n''t they?"
34218Why-- where is Jack? 34218 Will he not be very lonely?"
34218Willing? 34218 Wot are we to do with this''ere''opeless chap?"
34218Would you care less about the lovely music if it was not really made by an angel? 34218 Would you like to see him?"
34218You are sure he will stand?
34218You go straight home now?
34218You like him?
34218You may remember that your coffee was not quite clear day before yesterday?
34218You really made this?
34218You really mean it?
34218You young Jacobite, are you instilling your pernicious doctrines into this child''s breast? 34218 You''re awfully strong, are n''t you?
34218You, sir?
34218''Are they both such invalids?''
34218''Fair stood the wind for France,''hey?
34218''She''s got a temper, ai n''t she?''
34218Am I taking up too much of your valuable time, sir?''
34218And could she make sunshine for her mother, who had lost the great bright light which had warmed and cheered her during so many years?
34218And do you like this place?
34218And how did you find the young lady, sir?
34218And now the question was, Which hero was to have the chief place?
34218And yet I do not sing it; why?
34218And you will clothe us in scarlet and fine wool, wo n''t you, great- aunt?"
34218And_ what_ do you think?"
34218Are n''t they beautiful?
34218Are they from Colonel Ferrers''s garden?"
34218Are you aware of this, pray?"
34218Are you aware, sir, that your father is my brother?
34218Are you laughing at me?"
34218As they drove along the pleasant road, fringed with oaks and beeches, Jack broke silence with,"Biddy, did you ever have any children?"
34218Besides, what if I were?"
34218But how can I possibly take anything off it?
34218But if you do n''t, you''ll shut the door careful, wo n''t you dear?"
34218But now, tell me, do you think it would be quite impossible to persuade your uncle?
34218But since you have moved, shall I drive you home, Miss Industry?"
34218But what could she say?
34218But you would not compare playing the fiddle with the glorious Art of War, I imagine?"
34218But''purple''has a nice sound, do n''t you think so?
34218Ca n''t I help you to put away the jam- pots?"
34218Ca n''t I just keep quiet while I am here, and not see people?
34218Can I make some more for you?"
34218Can you not improvise something?"
34218Can you remember all that?"
34218Can you tell me the first lines of Dryden''s''Song for St. Cecilia''s Day''?"
34218Can you wait perhaps five minutes?"
34218Can you wait?"
34218Come up, and I will read while you-- need I specify the occupation?"
34218Could you make anything out of him?"
34218D''ye think I was fitted for a mercantile life, for example?
34218Did he like walking?
34218Did he smite him hip and thigh, even unto the going down of the sun?"
34218Did she give you any points on tree- climbing?
34218Did you know it?"
34218Did you notice her voice, nephew?
34218Do n''t you know, blessed heart?
34218Do n''t you love coloured words?"
34218Do n''t you suppose she had_ any_ pictures?
34218Do n''t you think so, Beloved?''
34218Do n''t you think that was sad, Hugh?"
34218Do you feel any dizziness?
34218Do you feel as if the evil spirit were going away?"
34218Do you hear?
34218Do you know her?"
34218Do you know the Mozart Concerto in F, for two violins?
34218Do you like jam?"
34218Do you like the sound of that?"
34218Do you mind my calling you a Purple Maid?"
34218Do you play, or sing?"
34218Do you think I do n''t know that?"
34218Do you think it''s safe to leave her alone?"
34218Do you think that is when the angel goes up to the gate, and then is sorry for people here, and comes back again?
34218Do you think that, Merlin?"
34218Do you think that?"
34218Does it fill you?"
34218Ferrers?"
34218Finally Mrs. Beadle made a desperate effort, and said,"Do you think, sir, that you could find some one to take my place?"
34218First of all, how do you like the house?"
34218For example, do you ever look in the glass?
34218For example, what do you see at our feet here?"
34218Grahame?"
34218Grahame?"
34218Grahame?"
34218Hand me the''Worthies of England,''will you?
34218Have some chocolates?"
34218Have you ever had any trouble, I wonder, Hilda?"
34218Have you never read that beautiful''Life of Handel''?
34218He makes very sure about the rapture, does n''t he?"
34218He said he would make a man of me, but I do n''t believe he could make a very good one, do you, Beloved?"
34218He-- has he ever heard you play, Jack?"
34218Hest-- a-- Hildegarde, will you give us a song?"
34218Hey?"
34218Hey?"
34218Hey?"
34218Hilda and the doves, hey?
34218How am I to take you about, if this is the way you behave?"
34218How are you now, Hildegarde?
34218How could it be possible to introduce little Hugh, a boy and a stranger, into the charmed garden?
34218How dare you rob birds''nests in my woods?"
34218How dared he make fun of her?
34218How did you manage it?"
34218How do you do?
34218How long a season do you make?"
34218How long ago was it that I found a button in the cup of tea which a certain young woman of my acquaintance brought me?"
34218How many girls know anything about Lord Herbert?
34218Hugh will take care of Uncle Tom, wo n''t you, Hugh?
34218Hugh, what do you think that puppy did?"
34218I am_ so_ sorry for his uncle, are n''t you?"
34218I hope your own health is good, dear?"
34218I say, what is that brown stuff out on the porch, with mosquito netting over it?
34218I think-- who is that?
34218I wonder-- do you know, Jack, what I am thinking of?"
34218If anybody else ever says he has n''t common sense, knock him down, do you hear?
34218Is it Hester, or an angel?"
34218Is it about the yellow pickles?
34218Is it any one I ever heard of?"
34218Is it any reason why he should not be trained for something better?
34218Is it possible?"
34218Is n''t he a darling, Jack?"
34218Is n''t he a wonderful child, sir?
34218Is n''t he glorious, Jack?
34218Is n''t it a lovely day?
34218Is that the kind of person you like to see?
34218Is there another?
34218Is this your twelve- dollar cook?
34218It gave me a thought-- who is the little boy with Miss Grahame, dear?"
34218Lankton?"
34218Lankton?"
34218Lankton?"
34218Leather?"
34218Lizzie, I wonder what turns your thread so dark?
34218May I come to see you once?"
34218Must we go?"
34218Nothing very valuable, I hope?"
34218Now tell me, did you find Mrs. Lankton here when you arrived?
34218Now you remember?"
34218Now, if you made it a point always to look in the glass before leaving your room--""Is that one of the sides you want me to develop?"
34218Now, youngster, who told you all that?"
34218Oh, Hilda, it does n''t seem possible, does it?
34218Rather old- fashioned, is n''t it, Miss Grahame?"
34218Reading?
34218Saul?"
34218Scaramouche, how goes it, hey?"
34218See, Mammina, here are her red shoes-- just like Beatrix Esmond''s, are n''t they?
34218Shall I bring you some jam?
34218Shall I take you through the house, dear?''"
34218Shall we starve, do you think, Colonel Ferrers?"
34218So that is the kind of trick Elizabeth Beadle plays on me, eh?
34218Suddenly-- what was this?
34218Tell me that, will you?"
34218That was forty years ago, but it changed my life, do you see?
34218The poor lad is very shy, is n''t he?
34218Then Hildegarde said in a matter- of- fact tone,"You have no sisters, have you, Cousin Jack?"
34218Then Hugh asked cautiously:"How do you feel now, Mr. Saul?
34218Then,"Why in the name of all that is cacophonous, did n''t you play me a tune at first, instead of an infernal German exercise?
34218They had been talking about everything and nothing, when suddenly Jack shook his head and began earnestly,"Did your mother mean that the other night?"
34218They look as if they were all running after each other, do n''t they?
34218To see my heart''s own Doctor in dark blue calf, with all that beautiful tooling--""What Doctor?
34218U.?"
34218Vesta Philbrook, where is your violin?"
34218Walking this way, is n''t she?
34218Was there a mystery here?
34218We are poor, you know; Daddy does n''t know anything about money, and-- and who cares about it, anyhow, except for-- for things one wants?
34218Well, dear, how did you part with your melancholy dame?"
34218Well, dear?"
34218Were they terrible, do you think?"
34218What are you?"
34218What could she say to this gawky youth, whose face she could not even see?
34218What do you suppose is the matter with yours?"
34218What does the slip say, darling?
34218What have you to do?"
34218What have you-- did you fall into it?
34218What is a menial, dearly beloved?"
34218What is written on that tiny cap, in the corner there?
34218What kind of jam shall I say?"
34218What shall I do?"
34218What was he like when he was a boy?"
34218What was it?
34218What was it?
34218What was it?
34218What was to be done?
34218What woman or girl does not love lace?
34218What would you do if I did not, Hugh?"
34218What''s the use of making a bow?
34218What''s this?
34218What_ do_ you look at, Jack, except your music and your violin?
34218Where did you learn it, boy?"
34218Where did you learn that trick?
34218Where''s your fiddle, Jack?"
34218Who could tell what was coming to her, too, in this room?
34218Who knows?"
34218Who put you up to it?
34218Who shall have the post of honour over the mantel- piece?
34218Why did you tell them about mother, Uncle Tom?
34218Why do n''t you give Miss Grahame some more salad?
34218Why do you look so at me, great- aunt?
34218Why, I am actually becoming fond of my milksop; a good lad, eh, Mrs. Grahame?
34218Will the pony stand, Jack?"
34218Will you be my friend, too?
34218Will you have a drop of shrub, Master Jack?
34218Would any girls like to know what Hildegarde''s books are?
34218Would you like to be a dog?"
34218You remember Colonel Ferrers?"
34218You will forgive me, Hilda?"
34218You would?
34218You''re peart, are ye?
34218You''re quite sure you like me to call you''Biddy''?"
34218You''ve fleshed up some since ye came here, ai n''t ye?
34218You_ are_ a boy, are n''t you, though you are so big?"
34218Your speaking of the children reminds me to ask you, is little Hugh going with you to Long Branch?"
34218Yours, Euleta?
34218_ Is n''t_ it nice, dear persons?"
34218addressing Hugh,"you must look after this great- aunt of yours, do you hear?"
34218an honest, gentlemanly lad, I think?"
34218and why would you pull his tail, you naughty boy?"
34218and you have enjoyed it, too, Jack, have n''t you?
34218are not all schools in vacation now?"
34218are you making it?"
34218ca n''t get Saul out of his head, d''ye see?
34218chicken?
34218he is a double David now, is n''t he, Beloved?"
34218he said,"and fluttering; Elizabeth Beadle, are you losing your mind?"
34218his cousin said;"but, considering that one must make bows, Jack, is n''t it just as well to do it well as to do it badly?"
34218how are you?"
34218how could you?
34218if it was a person like you and me, who had the power and the love to make such beautiful sounds?"
34218is it possible?
34218must we go to bed?"
34218oh,_ will_ you look?
34218said Colonel Ferrers, bowing again; and he added,"May I be allowed to present my nephew?
34218that I first made the acquaintance of Raymond Ferrers when he was one hour old, a squeaking little scarlet wretch in a flannel blanket?
34218then why not try to care for something else_ beside_ music, without caring any the less for that?"
34218was Mrs. Beadle the plump and comfortable skeleton in the Loftus closet?
34218what are you talking about, Hildegarde?"
34218what was it?
34218what would you do if your ma was took?"
34218where have you got to?"
34218where were they?"
34218why did n''t you tell us you sang?"
34218you comin''?"
34218you have robbed the woods, Hildegarde?
34218you remember?
34218you want to go to Leipsic, to study music?"
13997''Do you mean for ribbons? 13997 ''Do you mean, my friend, for a one- hoss shay, Or the horse himself,--black, roan, or bay?
13997''Pray might I be allowed a pun, To help me through with just this one? 13997 ''The Tenderness of God-- the Compassion-- that taketh away the sins of the world?''"
13997''The shirtless backs put into the shirts?''
13997''What is the difference between sponge- cake and doughnuts?'' 13997 ''What is your favorite name?''"
13997A new word? 13997 After Z----, what should it be but''And?''"
13997All well at home, David?
13997All you wanted? 13997 And Dorris is that bright girl who wanted thirteen things, and rhymed them into''Crambo?''
13997And Homesworth is in the country? 13997 And I do n''t sympathize?
13997And mamma knows?
13997And the Bible, too?
13997And the new word?
13997And then what?
13997And you are willing, if he does n''t care?
13997Anybody else?
13997Are n''t these almost too exquisite? 13997 Are you too tired to walk home?"
13997Better-- how?
13997But do you_ care_?
13997But how can you live_ without_ wearing?
13997But is n''t it scene and costume, a good deal of it, without the play? 13997 But the change again, if she should have to make it?"
13997But then?
13997But what_ is_ she? 13997 But where are your common things?"
13997Can I help you? 13997 Come and_ live_?"
13997Desire?
13997Do n''t it appear to you it''s a kind of a stump? 13997 Do n''t you remember?
13997Do n''t you think it''s expected that we should do something with the corners? 13997 Do n''t you want to come and swing?"
13997Do they? 13997 Do you feel any better?"
13997Do you know what Hazel Ripwinkley is doing? 13997 Do you know what that''s a sign of, you children?"
13997Do you mean, Ruthie, that you and I might go and_ live_ in such places? 13997 Do you s''pose ma''ll think of that?"
13997Do you s''pose we did it?
13997Do you think you could be contented to come and live with me?
13997Do you think, Luclarion,said Desire, feebly, as Luclarion came to take away her bowl of chicken broth,--"that it is my_ duty_ to go with mamma?"
13997Does it? 13997 Eh?"
13997Get anything by that?
13997Good woman? 13997 Has he got a flag out there?"
13997Have you come to_ stay_?
13997Have you had a good time?
13997How can I say''we,''then?
13997How can I tell?
13997How can you, Helena?
13997How did it work when it came to you?
13997How do you feel?
13997How do you know about sea- shores and pine forests?
13997How do you?
13997How does she know?
13997How far does Miss Waite''s ground run along the river?
13997How is it that things always fall right together for you, so? 13997 How much will it cost?"
13997How was it, Aleck?
13997Hungry and restless; that''s what we all are,said Rachel Froke,"until"--"Well,--until?"
13997I do n''t see,--Mrs. Marchbanks ought to have some of this coffee, but where is your good woman gone?
13997I teach? 13997 Is it slang?
13997Is n''t it a responsibility,Frank ventured,"to think what we shall contrive_ for_?"
13997It looks like it, sometimes; who can tell?
13997It''s the same thing, mother,she would say,"is n''t it, now?
13997Jesus Christ, God''s Heart of Love toward man? 13997 Miss Craydocke, of Orchard Street?
13997Miss Craydocke,said Hazel,"how did you begin your beehive?"
13997Must I go to Europe with my mother?
13997Never knew that was what it meant? 13997 Next of kin?"
13997Not been to church to- day?
13997Now, ma''am, did you ever know me to go off on a tangent, without some sort of a string to hold on to? 13997 Now, tell me, truly, uncle, should you object?
13997O, my dear, do n''t I tell you continually, you have n''t waked up yet? 13997 O, why_ ca n''t_ they?"
13997Only,said Hazel, to whom something else had just occurred,"would n''t he think-- wouldn''t it be--_your_ business?"
13997Real Westover summum- bonum cake?
13997Should what?
13997Stay behind? 13997 Suppose you ask him, Hazel?"
13997That same little old story? 13997 That will clothe you,--without much fuss and feathers?"
13997The Syphon?
13997The angels in heaven know; why should n''t you?
13997The same old way?
13997The world?
13997There is something-- isn''t there-- about those who_ attain_ to that resurrection; those who are_ worthy_? 13997 They''re the things I wear; why should n''t I?"
13997Twice a day I have to do myself up somehow, and why should n''t it be as well as I can? 13997 Was there ever anything restless in your life, Miss Craydocke?
13997We have engaged the young woman: the doctor quite approves; she will return without delay, I hope?
13997Well, I suppose it''s worth while to have a lame girl to sit up in a round chair, and look like a lily in a vase, is it?
13997Well, if everybody is upside down, there''s a view of it that makes it all right side up, is n''t there? 13997 Well, then, how did you_ let_ it begin?"
13997Well,--do you feel''obligated,''as Luclarion says?'' 13997 Well?"
13997Well?
13997Well?
13997Well?
13997What do you mean by that second person plural, eh? 13997 What do you mean?"
13997What do you suppose would happen then?
13997What do you think Rosamond says?
13997What do you think you and I ought to do, one of these days, Ruthie? 13997 What does it mean, mother?"
13997What have you thought, Luclarion? 13997 What is his name?"
13997What is it all for?
13997What is it, mother?
13997What is it? 13997 What is the delay?"
13997What is the matter?
13997What makes you suppose that that would be a trouble to me?
13997What now?
13997What old lady, mamma, away up in Hanover?
13997What other things?
13997What was it, then?
13997What''s the matter?
13997What, Luclarion?
13997What?
13997When they give me a piece of their luncheon, or when they walk home from school, or when they say they will come in a little while?
13997Where are they?
13997Where did you get hold of that?
13997Where is Luclarion?
13997Where must I stop?
13997Where was you when it tumbled?
13997Where''s my poker?
13997Where''s your empty box, now?
13997Where_ will_ you wear that, up here?
13997Who knows when they began?
13997Who''s Sulie Praile?
13997Who?
13997Why do n''t you ask them to help you hunt up old Noah, and all get back into the ark, pigeons and all?
13997Why does n''t everbody have an old house, and let the squirrels in?
13997Why does thee ask me, Desire?
13997Why must everything_ look_ somehow?
13997Why need all the good be done up in batches, I wonder? 13997 Why not?
13997Why what is that? 13997 Why what, dear?"
13997Why_ do n''t_ you put your old brown things all together in an up- stairs room, and call it Mile Hill? 13997 Will she call me Daisy?"
13997Will you have some more?
13997Will you let me go?
13997Wo n''t you?
13997Would it signify if she thought you called me Daisy?
13997Would n''t it be rather an aggravation? 13997 Would n''t it do to put in this laurel bush next, with the bird''s nest in it?"
13997Would that interfere?
13997You ai n''t mad with me, be you?
13997You called about the nurse, I conclude, Miss-- Holabird?
13997You see it_ was_ rather an awful question,--''What do you want most?'' 13997 You would n''t want to be brought up in a platoon, Hazel?"
13997_ Guess_? 13997 _ One_ taken?
13997_ Slang_?
13997_ Why_ do you hate the thought of going to Europe?
13997_ Your_ money?
13997''How wags the world?''
13997''I suppose you have been shopping?''
13997''Why reason ye because ye have no bread?
13997--Shall I go on with all this stuff, Or do you think it is enough?
13997A Sermon means a Word; why do n''t they just say the word, and let it go?"
13997About taking away the sins,--do you think?"
13997After all that had happened,--everything so changed,--half her family abroad,--what could she do?
13997All alone?
13997And Desire?
13997And Mr. Geoffrey read,--"''What is your favorite color?''
13997And a''flying circle''in the middle?
13997And all Helena''s education to provide for, and everything so cheap and easy there, and so dear and difficult here?
13997And are novels to be pictures of human experience, or not?
13997And besides, ca n''t I see daily just how your nature draws and points?"
13997And could half as much sympathy be evolved from a straight line?"
13997And how is my money going to work on?"
13997And how long did it take to overlive it?
13997And now they would go back to tea, and eat up the brown cake?
13997And the face that could be simply merry, telling such a tale as that,--what sort of bright little immortality must it be the outlook of?
13997And the most beautiful things do not speak from the outside, do they?
13997And to do only a little, in an easy way, when we are made so strong to do; would n''t it be a waste of power, and a missing of the meaning?
13997And what Luclarion Grapp has done?
13997And what business has the printer, whom the next man will pay to advertise his loss, to help on a lie like this beforehand?
13997And what can I do?
13997And where do you live?"
13997Are girls ever too tired to walk home after a picnic, when the best of the picnic is going to walk home with them?
13997Are you shirking your responsibilities, or are you addressing your imaginary Boffinses?
13997At last,--"You are fond of scenery, Miss Holabird?"
13997Besides, she would eat some of the berry- cake when it was made; was n''t that worth while?
13997Besides, what would he know about two young girls?
13997Black or white?
13997But brooms, and pails, and wash- tubs, and the back stairs?"
13997But do you suppose he did n''t know?
13997But it_ was_ a stump, was n''t it?"
13997But then, it had been for their good; how could she have imagined?
13997But what should they say; and would it be at all proper that they should be surprised?
13997But why will people do such things?
13997But you''ve got God''s daily bread in your hand; how can you talk devil''s Dutch over it?"
13997But, O dear what did it?
13997Clouds, trees, faces,--do they ever look twice the same?"
13997Come, Mr. Oldways, Mr. Geoffrey, wo n''t you try''Crambo?''
13997Could n''t Mr. Gallilee put up a swing?
13997Could you begin the world with me, Rosamond?"
13997Cutting out was nice, of course; who does n''t like cutting out pictures?
13997Diana''s a dear, and Hazel''s a duck, besides being my cousins; why should n''t I?
13997Did she send you here to ask me?"
13997Do n''t go for callin''me Dam, now; the boys did that in my last place, an''I left, don''yer see?
13997Do n''t you feel like foolish virgins, Flo and Nag?
13997Do n''t you have ghosts, or robbers, or something, up and down those stairs, Miss Waite?"
13997Do n''t you miss that?"
13997Do n''t you remember in that book of the''New England Housekeeper,''that you used to have, what the woman said about the human nature of the beans?
13997Do n''t you remember the brown cupboard in Aunt Oldways''kitchen, how sagey, and doughnutty, and good it always smelt?
13997Do n''t you see?
13997Do n''t you think Miss Waite would like to sell?"
13997Do n''t you think people almost always live out their names?
13997Do n''t you think that''s nice of him?"
13997Do you draw?
13997Do you know how large a part of life, even young life, is made of the days that have never been lived?
13997Do you know how strange it is,--how almost impracticable,--that it is not even safe?"
13997Do you know things puzzle me a little, Kenneth?
13997Do you know when we rubbed our new shoes with pounded stone and made them gray?
13997Do you think I could take you there?"
13997Do you think I have passed her over lightly in her troubles?
13997Does it crowd you any to have Sulie and Vash there, and to have us''took up''with them, as Luclarion says?"
13997Does it mean so in the other place?
13997Does n''t it just make out?"
13997Does n''t she want you to go?"
13997Does n''t that sound like thousands of them, all fresh and rustling?
13997Does nothing come to thee?"
13997Does that do it?"
13997Does thee get no word when thee goes to church?
13997Except just_ that_ that the little children_ were_, underneath, when the Lord let them-- He knows why-- be born so?
13997For how_ should_ they outgrow it?
13997For was not she a mother, testing the world''s chalice for her children?
13997Froke, when does He give it out?
13997Froke?"
13997From four till half- past eight, with games, and tea at six, and the fathers looking in?"
13997Gone?"
13997Has n''t anybody got to contrive anything more?
13997Have n''t you calculated?"
13997Hazel danced up to Desire:--"O,_ do_ you know the Muffin Man, The Muffin Man, the Muffin Man?
13997He could do as he pleased; was he not Sir Archibald?
13997How came you to?"
13997How came you to?"
13997How can we set aside his ways until He clearly points us out his own exception?"
13997How could she bring news of others''gladness into that dim and sorrowful house?
13997How could she help her words, hearing nothing but devil''s Dutch around her all the time?
13997How do I know this money would be well in their hands-- even for themselves?"
13997How else could she establish any relations between herself and them, or get any permanent hold or access?
13997How is it that ye do not understand?''"
13997How much money have you got?"
13997How shall I know?"
13997How will you get home, Mrs. Froke?
13997How?"
13997How_ came_ Damaris to come along?"
13997I do n''t suppose you would mean to stay altogether?"
13997I might learn A, and teach them that; but how do I know I shall ever learn B, myself?"
13997I s''pose''twould take a fortnight, maybe?"
13997I suppose there must be some who are just born to this world, then, and never--''born again?''"
13997I wonder whether she gives or takes?"
13997I wonder why, when they''ve got old, and ought to?
13997In one corner of the chimney leaned an iron bar, used sometimes in some forgotten, old fashioned way, across dogs or pothooks,--who knows now?
13997In the great Ledger of God will it always stand unbalanced on the debit side?
13997Is it all finished now?
13997Is it not a partaking of the heavenly Marriage Supper?
13997Is it the stillness?
13997Is n''t he one?"
13997Is n''t it the''much''that is required of us, Dakie?"
13997Is n''t it?"
13997Is n''t that a horseshoe?
13997Is n''t that the special pleasantness of making cakes where little children are?
13997Is n''t that true?
13997Is not this that she is growing to inwardly, more blessed than any marriage or giving in marriage?
13997Is that end and moral enough for a two years''watchful trial and a two years''simple tale?
13997Is there a sin in that?"
13997It may be that I do n''t understand, because I have not got into the heart of your city life; but what comes of the parties, for instance?
13997It was all over; and now, what should they do?
13997Kincaid?"
13997Kincaid?"
13997Luclarion, have n''t you got a great big empty room up at the top of the house?"
13997May I go, mother?
13997Might she not find him there; might they not silently and spiritually, without sign, but needing no sign, begin to understand each other now?
13997Mother,"she asked rather suddenly,"do you think Uncle Oldways feels as if we ought n''t to do-- other things-- with his money?"
13997Mr. Oldways''saying came back into Mrs. Froke''s mind:--"Have n''t you got any light, Rachel, that might shine a little for that child?"
13997Mrs. Ripwinkley did not complain; it was only her end of the"stump;"why should she expect to have a Luclarion Grapp to serve her all her life?
13997Mrs. Ripwinkley looked up in utter surprise; what else could she do?
13997Much?
13997Must we never, in this life, gather round us the utmost that the world is capable of furnishing?
13997Must we never, out of this big creation, have the piece to ourselves, each one as he would choose?"
13997Never mind; I''ll fetch thee more to- morrow; and thee''ll let the vase go for a while?
13997Not go to Europe?
13997Now that we have hit upon this metaphor, is n''t it funny that our little social experiment should have taken the shape of a horseshoe?"
13997Now what''ll you do?"
13997Now, do n''t you suppose I ought to go?"
13997O,_ do n''t_ you remember, Laura?
13997O,_ do_ you know the Muffin Man That lives in Drury Lane?"
13997Of all my poor father''s work, what is there to show for it now?
13997Once a month, in church, they have the bread and the wine?
13997Or do you think I am making her out to have herself passed over them lightly?
13997Or flowers?
13997Or wo n''t you have to stay, too?"
13997Poh?
13997Ripwinkley?"
13997Ripwinkley?"
13997Ripwinkley?"
13997S''posin''we''d jumped in the kitchen, or-- the-- flat- irons had tumbled down,--or anything?
13997Scherman?"
13997She asked her mother one night, if she did n''t think they might begin their beehive with a fire- fly?
13997She ought to have known her father better; his life ought to have been more to her; was it her fault, or, harder yet, had it been his?
13997She went away back, strangely, and asked whether she had had any business to be born?
13997Should you take it at all hard?
13997Since why?
13997So he said, smiling,--"And who knows what the''everything''may be?"
13997So, they were to be separated?
13997Tea parties?"
13997That was the first thing ever we learnt, was n''t it, Dine?
13997The new, fresh word, with the leaven in it?
13997The old lady is satisfied; and away up there in Hanover, what can it signify to her?
13997The people who lived there called it East Square; but what difference did that make?
13997Then Hazel wished they could be put into clean clothes each time; would n''t it do, somehow?
13997Then Kenneth Kincaid said,--"Miss Desire, why wo n''t you come and teach in the Mission School?"
13997Then she added,--for her little witch- stick felt spiritually the quality of what she spoke to,--"Wouldn''t Mr. Geoffrey come for Ada in the evening?"
13997There was Uncle Titus; who knew but it was the Oldways streak in him after all?
13997There was nothing really rude in it; she was there on business; what more could she expect?
13997There were chances,--don''t you think so?"
13997They are friends of yours?"
13997They?
13997This terrible"why should it be?"
13997To find out what one thinks about things, is pretty much the whole finding, is n''t it?"
13997Uncle Titus wanted to know"what sort of use a thing like that could be in a house?"
13997Uncle Titus, do you mind how we fill it up,--because you gave it to us, you know?"
13997Was it going aside in search of an undertaking that did not belong to her?
13997Was n''t that being good for anything, while berry- cake was making?
13997Was not the real family just beginning to be born into the real home?
13997Was this caring?
13997Well?"
13997Were all the mistakes-- the sins, even-- for the very sake of the pure blessedness and the more perfect knowledge of the setting right?
13997What are our artistic perceptions given to us for, unless we''re to make the best of ourselves in the first place?"
13997What are shirts made for?"
13997What did she care for the hiss and the bubble, if they came?
13997What did you do?
13997What did you mean?"
13997What difference did it make?
13997What do you suppose the resurrection was, or is?"
13997What do you suppose they''re letting us stay at home from school for?"
13997What else can it mean?
13997What had the word of the Spirit been to Rachel Froke this day?
13997What has that to do with it?"
13997What if he should die pretty soon?
13997What is the reason I ca n''t?
13997What is the use of asking?
13997What is there left of all we have ever tried to do, all these years?
13997What is there more about it?
13997What kind?"
13997What made Rosamond so wise about knowing and belonging?
13997What makes us have to mind it so?"
13997What matters a little pain, outside?
13997What other way would there be?
13997What was one hour at a time, once or twice a week, to do against all this?
13997What was the use of"looking,"unless things were looked at?
13997What was two thousand a year, now- a- days?
13997What was wrong, and how far back?
13997What were houses for?
13997What were the spare places made for?
13997What will come of it all, as the pretenses multiply?
13997What wonder that this stood in her way, for very pleasantness, when Kenneth asked her to come and teach in the school?
13997What would you do?"
13997What''s the use?
13997What''s''next year?''
13997When there could be so much visiting, and spare rooms kept always in everybody''s house, why should not somebody who needed to, just come in and stay?
13997When they got out upon the sidewalk, Kenneth Kincaid asked,"Was it one of the morsels that may be shared, Miss Desire?
13997Where are the children, do you suppose, you dear old Frau Van Winkle, that would come to such a party now?"
13997Where did you get such pictures, Miss Hazel?"
13997Where do you keep all your noise and your breath?
13997Where''s the difference?"
13997Where?"
13997Whether it were a piece of God''s truth at all, that she and all of them should be, and call themselves a household,--a home?
13997Who are all a mistake in the world, and have nothing to do with its meaning?
13997Who does, or_ do n''t_ look after you?"
13997Who ever suspected_ that_ of you?"
13997Who knows what would come of it?
13997Who should write to Mrs. Ripwinkley, after all these years, from Boston?
13997Who was taking care of their father?
13997Why ca n''t I live something out for myself, and have a place of my own?
13997Why ca n''t it be spread round, a little more even?
13997Why could n''t they keep little Vash?
13997Why do n''t they keep a little way off from each other in cities, and so have room for apple trees?
13997Why do n''t you put your flowers in the window, Hazel?"
13997Why does n''t somebody stop?"
13997Why need people dispute about Eternity and Divinity, if they can only see that?--Was that Mrs. Froke''s reading?"
13997Why ought n''t there to be_ little_ homes, done- by- hand homes, for all these little children, instead of-- well-- machining them all up together?"
13997Why should Desire feel cross?
13997Why should I set up to fetch and carry?"
13997Why should I, any more than a boy?
13997Why should anybody in particular be thanked, as if anybody in particular had asked for anything?
13997Why should n''t somebody do it, just to show how good it is?"
13997Why should not Mrs. Ledwith and the others come and join them?
13997Why should they?
13997Why was she left out,--forgotten?
13997Why was there nothing, very much, in any of this, for her?
13997Why will you torment yourself so?"
13997Why, that is, if religion stand for the relation of things to spirit, which I suppose it should?
13997Why, where_ could_ you stay?
13997Why?
13997Why?
13997Will she put it on the ice for to- morrow?"
13997Will there be always pennies for every little broom?
13997Will this be lost in the world?
13997Will two, and three, and six sweeps be tolerated between side and side?
13997Will you bring her here, Hazel?"
13997Will you come up here, and see me in my room?
13997Wo n''t you ever be tired of it,--you great girls?"
13997Wo n''t you-- can''t you-- be my wife, Rosamond?
13997Work?
13997Would it not be more prudent to join them, than to set up a home again without them, and keep them out there?
13997Would n''t he like it if we turned his house into a Beehive?"
13997Would n''t you like to come and see?"
13997Would she go and live among them, in one of these little new, primitive homes, planted down in the pasture- land, on the outskirts?
13997Would she-- the pretty, graceful, elegant Rosamond-- live semi- detached with old Miss Arabel Waite?
13997Would you care if it was turned quite into a Beehive, finally?"
13997You ca n''t make the world over, with''why don''ts?''"
13997You could keep it for old times''sake, and sit there mornings; the house is big enough; and then have furniture like other people''s in the parlor?"
13997You do n''t take it in away down under your belt, do you?
13997You girls, with feet and hands of your own?
13997You never ate any of my top- overs?
13997You''d like to come and take tea with me, would n''t you, Aunt Frank?"
13997You''re great, are n''t you?
13997_ Is n''t_ anything actually pretty in itself, or ca n''t they settle what it is?
13997_ Would_ not life touch her?
13997came up the pleasant tones of Mrs. Oldways from behind,"how can they help it?
13997do you remember the dear little parties our mother used to make for us?
13997or eyes?
13997or gems?
13997or gowns?
13997or in sunset skies?
13997there were some little children taken away from you before we came, you know?
13997to the hindrance of the next man who may have a real wolf to catch?
13997what_ did_ she mean?"
13997who wants to be waited on, here?
13234Abbie, do you mean to say that in every little thing that you buy you weigh the subject, and discuss the right and wrong of it?
13234Alfred, what do you suppose that can mean?
13234And also I wonder if the rest of the world are as unlimited a set of humbugs as you suppose? 13234 And do you see as she gets on any better with her religion, than you do without it?
13234And so, Miss Ester, you manufactured me into a minister at our first meeting?
13234And that is being peculiar?
13234And where are the children?
13234And who is Sallie?
13234And you refused it?
13234And you thought it improper?
13234Anything special?
13234Are his affairs precarious, Abbie, or is finery prodigious?
13234Are n''t you the chairman of that committee to secure teachers for the evening school?
13234Are you going to New York?
13234Are you reading the Bible by course? 13234 Are you very certain of this thing, Doctor, and is it to come to me soon?"
13234Are you_ truly_ better, mother? 13234 Are_ you_ home?
13234But does he go without breakfast?
13234But how could we manage about your wardrobe? 13234 But in the meantime what do you suppose that bread was doing?
13234But then-- Well, Abbie, do you think it is wicked to like nice things?
13234But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?
13234But your example as a Christian lady, I trust, is such that it puts to shame your experience among gentlemen?
13234But, Abbie, did Aunt Helen really want you to have that pearl velvet we saw at Stewart''s?
13234But, Alfred,interrupted the truthful and puzzled Julia,"what can I do about it?
13234Ca n''t Maggie do any of these things?
13234Come, Birdie, Auntie Essie''s cross, is n''t she? 13234 Dear Friend: Are you a Christian?
13234Did he explain to you our misunderstanding?
13234Did mother say that?
13234Did you and Dr. Douglass have a private rehearsal? 13234 Did you hear me tell you to shut that door this instant?"
13234Did you hear that conversation, Doctor? 13234 Do I appear bitter?
13234Do n''t I?
13234Do n''t you? 13234 Do n''t_ you_ think I would be?"
13234Do you ask God''s help in these matters?
13234Do you feel able to get up to breakfast, Ester dear, or had you rather lie and rest?
13234Do you get down stairs at seven o''clock?
13234Do you give three evenings a week to religious meetings, Abbie?
13234Do you know where your son lives?
13234Do you know, dear Ester, there must have been two new joys in heaven to- day? 13234 Do you suppose you are to be trusted?"
13234Do you suppose,said Ester, growing metaphysical,"that if Mr. Foster were not a Christian you would marry him?"
13234Do you think so? 13234 Doctor, are you in haste?
13234Does Dr. Douglass agree with you?
13234Does every thing rise better after it is pricked?
13234Does n''t it annoy you to have her speak in that manner about him?
13234Does the Bible lay down one code of laws for you and another for Christians?
13234Dr. Douglass, what do you mean?
13234Dr. Van Anden,said Sadie with dignity,"do n''t you think there should be a difference between Christians and those who are not?"
13234Ester do you remember we stood together alone for a moment yesterday? 13234 Ester, does God really mean for us to love people who are ugly to us, and to be good to them?"
13234Ester, is it very important that one should be sentimental on such an occasion? 13234 Ester, where is your Bible?
13234Ester, will you pray?
13234Father,she said softly,"you''ll let your little curly have her own way just this time, wo n''t you?
13234For what, Dr. Douglass; and why did you laugh?
13234Had you a pleasant ride?
13234Has n''t mother got back yet?
13234Have n''t you? 13234 Have you all the help you want?"
13234Have you been receiving a little fraternal advice?
13234Have you enjoyed the evening?
13234How does it happen that I never knew it?
13234How has she been?
13234How is it with the boy who is expecting you; has he this same friend?
13234How is it with your cousin?
13234How many would be ashamed to have_ Him_ see?
13234How much have you?
13234How shall we commence?
13234How will you go, Ester? 13234 How?"
13234How_ could_ I have been such a simpleton?
13234I do n''t know that I have any choice?
13234I do n''t understand--she said at length--"How is that a solemn matter?
13234I know; but it is the easiest way of reaching my point; so I repeat: How much faith have you in these Christian professions? 13234 I think it was as queer in you as possible not to go to the concert last evening with Uncle Ralph?"
13234I wonder if you_ are_ as sincere as you pretend to be?
13234I wonder, if we were each obliged to write truthful answers to each one of them, how many we should be ashamed to have each other see?
13234I wonder,she soliloquized, returning to gravity the moment she was alone,"I wonder what that man has been saying to him now?
13234Including yourself, do you mean?
13234Is Dr. Van Anden the old gentleman''s nurse, or guardian, or what?
13234Is he a-- a Christian?
13234Is it all done up?
13234Is it possible,she said at length,"that_ that_ is all, and he can bear such determined ill- will toward you?
13234Is it your private opinion that our good doctor got up a streak of disinterested enthusiasm over my unworthy self this evening?
13234Is n''t dancing an innocent amusement?
13234Is that the momentous question which you ca n''t decide, mother?
13234Is that thing hot?
13234Jule,called a familiar voice, under her window,"where are you?
13234Miss Ried, Miss Abbie sent me to say that there was company waiting to see you, and if you please would you come down as soon as you could?
13234Mr. Foster, do n''t you think she is_ very_ peculiar?
13234Mr. Foster,said Ester, with flushing cheeks, and in a whirl of vexation,"_ do n''t_ you understand me?"
13234No,said Ester;"I should like to hear you?"
13234Not from that dear old friend of ours on the cars?
13234Now have you found something to laugh at in me already?
13234Now what is the matter? 13234 Now, Doctor, what ever possessed you to think that I had never read that verse?"
13234Now, Ester, you are very tired, are n''t you? 13234 Oh Abbie, Abbie, how can you bear it-- how_ can_ you live?"
13234Oh, Ester,she said,"_ are_ these biscuits done, or will they be sticky and hateful in the middle?"
13234Oh, where is Dr. Van Anden?
13234Oh,said Ester,"girls go, too, do they?"
13234Pleasant?
13234Queer, was it? 13234 Rather odd things to be found in our possession, would n''t they be?
13234Sadie, had n''t I better make these pies?
13234Sadie, wo n''t you come and cut the beef and cake, and make the tea? 13234 Sadie,"said Ester, in a low, shocked tone,"_ do_ you think we are all hypocrites, and mean not a bit of this?"
13234Sadie,said Ester,"how_ can_ you teach those children such nonsense?"
13234Sadie,said Julia, rising suddenly, and moving over to where the frolic was going on,"wo n''t you tell us about our lesson?
13234Sadie,said he,"is there one verse in the Bible which you have never read?"
13234Sadie,said the doctor,"are you in the mood for a ride?
13234See here, are n''t you sorry that you could n''t go to Vesta''s, and had to stay up there alone all day, and that it bothered mother?
13234Shall I have the pleasure of being your carrier?
13234Shall I help you?
13234Shall I read, as you are so weary?
13234Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?
13234Should they not be connected?
13234Tell her what, I wonder? 13234 Then shall I?
13234There was?
13234Three weeks ago I had n''t the least idea of being here; and who knows what may happen in the next three weeks? 13234 Very likely; what then?"
13234Was-- Did he,with an inclination of her head toward the silent occupant of the couch,"Did he ever think he was a Christian?"
13234Well, Doctor, do you think-- would you be willing to propose my name as one of the teachers? 13234 Well, but what_ can_ that mean--''If a man strikes you on one cheek, let him strike the other too?''"
13234Well, but why does that help them any? 13234 Well, is that to be set down as a matter of religion, too?"
13234Well, then, why do n''t we, if God says so? 13234 Well, then,"said Ester,"we''ll all forgive each other, shall we, and begin over again?
13234Were there reports?
13234Were you at Mrs. Burton''s on the evening in which our society met?
13234What do they know about heat, or care, or trouble?
13234What do you think of her?
13234What does Dr. Van Anden want to act like a simpleton about Florence Vane for?
13234What has put you into that state of mind, Harry?
13234What have you been up to now?
13234What is supposed to be the matter with Sallie?
13234What is supposed to be the object?
13234What next, I wonder?
13234What of that? 13234 What shall we do that we might work the works of God?"
13234What things, Miss Ester?
13234What unaccountable witchcraft has taken possession of me?
13234What? 13234 What_ did_ I come after?"
13234What_ have_ I done now? 13234 What_ have_ you been doing?"
13234Whatever does he want of me do you suppose, Maggie? 13234 Where is Uncle Ralph?"
13234Where shall we commence? 13234 Who is Mr. Foster?
13234Who quarreled?
13234Who?
13234Why not?
13234Why should you feel obliged to do so if you were a Christian?
13234Why that bit of paper-- or is it a ghostly communication from the world of spirits? 13234 Why, Ester, what do you mean?
13234Why, Sadie, you poor dear child, what_ can_ be the matter?
13234Why,Ester asked, startled a little at the energy of her tone,"do you think it is wrong?"
13234Why? 13234 Will you promise, Sadie?"
13234Wo n''t he be glad though, to see his mother once more? 13234 Would you mind telling me some of the considerations?"
13234Yes,he said inquiringly, and with the most quiet and courteous air;"would you object to mentioning some of those things?"
13234Yes,said Abbie with softly glee;"is n''t it splendid?
13234You are not a bit sentimental; are you, Abbie?
13234You did n''t mend my dress and iron it, and curl my hair, and fix my sash, for him, did you?
13234You were not aware that you had improved so much in two years, now, were you?
13234_ Was_ she a fellow- pilgrim after all?
13234--this with a merry laugh"Did you suppose that people in New York lived without such inconveniences?"
13234A blank?
13234Abbie''s face expressed only innocent surprise"Do n''t you read together?
13234About her being out to- night?
13234Alfred, did I, honestly, make her cry?"
13234And the words he slowly uttered were yet more startling:"Am I going to die?"
13234And what was the matter with her anyway?
13234And which shall I leave for you?
13234And why was all this fearful time allowed to come to Abbie?
13234And yet could any contrast be greater than was Abbie''s life contrasted with hers?
13234Are the friends with whom you have been talking traveling toward the New Jerusalem?
13234Are you going to keep yours?"
13234Are you quite happy as a Christian?
13234Are you sure you have not mistaken your vocation?"
13234At which question Mr. Foster laughed, then answered good humoredly:"Do you think me a competent witness in that matter?"
13234But do you rank Abbie among those for whom it was naturally easy?"
13234But in what rank should she place this young, and beautiful, and wealthy city lady?
13234But may I say a word to you personally?
13234But then had not_ she_ this same faith?
13234But who would think of Dr. Van Anden being such a man?
13234But why do you ask?"
13234But will Ralph ever forget the little sweet smile which illumined for a moment the pure young face, as she turned confiding eyes on him?
13234Ca n''t they get up unless you make holes in them, and what is all the reason for it?"
13234Ca n''t you be married if he is n''t here?"
13234Ca n''t you do_ any thing_ soberly?"
13234Can you lead it without the notes?"
13234Can you play I am Sadie for just a little while?"
13234Come down and mend my sail for me, wo n''t you?"
13234Could it be possible that he was to come for her so soon, before any of these things were done?
13234Could she,_ would_ she, that gentle, timid, shrinking mother?
13234Could she?--must she?
13234Could the heart have ceased its beating?
13234Could this be her uncle''s house?
13234Could you not go to her?"
13234Did n''t you ever try to do things for Jesus before?"
13234Did n''t you know Mrs. Carleton was worse?"
13234Did she want to see any of them?"
13234Did the fairies send you?"
13234Did the pronoun startle you?"
13234Did you ask him if he_ would_ be?
13234Did you compare notes with them as to how you were all prospering on the way?
13234Did you get it for me, Ralph?
13234Did you make them?
13234Do n''t you enjoy teaching Alfred?"
13234Do n''t you think so?"
13234Do n''t you think the Psalms are wonderful, Ester?"
13234Do you call it being peculiarly good or peculiarly bad?"
13234Do you find your love growing stronger and your hopes brighter from day to day?"
13234Do you have a thousand little private marks in your Bible that nobody else understands?
13234Do you know I always feel a temptation to read in John?
13234Do you live in New York?"
13234Do you mean to say that you have no faith in any one''s religion?"
13234Do you put anything else in apple- pies?
13234Do you shrink from responsibility of that kind, Ester?
13234Do you suppose she will die, Alfred?"
13234Do you think it is kindness to keep a friend in ignorance of what very nearly concerns him, simply to spare his feelings for a little?"
13234Do you think it is quite right to neglect her so, when she must be very anxious to hear from home?''
13234Do you want it?"
13234Do you want_ these_ washed?"
13234Do_ you_ think that every person ought or ought_ not_ to be a Christian?"
13234Does it comfort your heart very much to remember that, in all your partings and trials, you are never called upon to bid Jesus good- by?"
13234Does it require a great deal of gravity, mother?
13234Does it seem, sometimes, as if it would almost rush you?"
13234Does n''t he look like a grand old patriarch?"
13234Does she fully understand that she and I are to officiate?
13234Does she seem worse to you?"
13234Does that condemn them?"
13234Does the comical side of it ever strike you, Ester?
13234Douglass?"
13234Douglass?"
13234Douglass?"
13234Douglass?"
13234Dr. Douglass broke the beautiful silence first with earnestly spoken words:"Doctor, will you forgive all the past?"
13234Dr. Douglass had been most in the wrong, though what man, unhelped by Christ, was ever known to believe this of himself?
13234Dr. Douglass''coolness forsook him for a moment"Who did?"
13234Dr. Douglass, will you pardon those bitterly spoken words of mine?"
13234Ere Sadie could reply the horses were stopped before the door, and Dr. Van Anden addressed her:"Sadie, do you want to take a ride?"
13234Ester''s face paled a little, but she asked, quietly enough:"How do you know all this?"
13234Ester, ca n''t you go down?
13234Ester, how many times ought I to beg your pardon for using an unknown tongue-- in other words, slang phrases?
13234Ester, how_ did_ you make things go right?
13234Ester, why do n''t you?"
13234For instance, do you think I prejudiced my father?"
13234For instance, what had become of his powers of discernment?
13234Foster?"
13234Foster?"
13234Gilbert?"
13234God''s angel had been present in that room, and in what a spirit had he found this watcher?
13234Gone?
13234Had an angel spoken to Ester, or was it the dear voice of the Lord himself?
13234Had her cousin Abbie actually"spoken in meeting?"
13234Had the world gone wild?
13234Has Abbie no trials to meet, no battles with Satan to fight, so far as you can discover?"
13234Have I imagined it, or does she speak of him frequently in her letters, in a way that gives me an idea that his influence is not for good?"
13234Have I kept you waiting, Abbie?"
13234Have n''t I promised to hoe out the rooms myself, immediately after the conclusion of the solemn services?"
13234Have n''t you just five minutes for me?"
13234Have you been careful to recommend the religion of Jesus Christ by your words, by your acts, by your looks, this day?
13234Have you been finding work to do for the Master?"
13234Have you been taken into his kindly care?
13234Have you begged the blood of Jesus to be spread over it all?
13234Have you done_ nothing_ for the Master?
13234Have you much more to do?"
13234Have you noticed the banging of doors, and the general confusion that reigns through the house?
13234Have you resolved in your own strength or in His?"
13234Have you resolved that no other day shall witness a repeatal of the same mistakes?
13234Have you seen Ester, my daughter?"
13234He could but feel that he had shrunken from his duty, hidden behind that most miserable of all excuses:"What will people think?"
13234He spoke abruptly and with a touch of nervousness:"Dr. Douglass, may I have a few words with you in private?"
13234How can I make any such promise as that?
13234How can you and mother be so unreasonable as to expect perfection when it is all new, and I really never practiced in my life?"
13234How could she know that the hateful letter was going to tumble out of her apron pocket?
13234How did he know?
13234How do you fancy you happened to escape getting mixed up with the general humbugism of the world?
13234How much sugar, mother?
13234How queer it was that in the smallest matters she and Abbie could not agree?
13234How shall I be glad enough to see you?"
13234How was it possible that the same set of rules could govern them both?
13234How will Dr. Van Anden enjoy the idea of a rival?"
13234How?"
13234How_ can_ you be so calm, so submissive, at least just now-- so soon-- and you were to have been married to- day?"
13234How_ could_ life have seemed to her dull and uninteresting and profitless?
13234How_ could_ they tell her?
13234I commenced reading the Bible through once; but I stopped at some chapter in Numbers-- the thirtieth, I think it is, is n''t it?
13234I say, Ester, will you give me a cookie?"
13234I should have warned them-- how came I to shrink so miserably from my duty?
13234I suppose you have it with you?"
13234I suppose you would have me unhesitatingly receive every word he says?"
13234I told you so, did n''t I?"
13234I want to know if you call it inconsistent to leave your prayer meeting for just one evening, no matter for what reason?"
13234I wonder how much of that nonsense which Dr. Douglass talks he believes, any way?
13234I wonder if they are going to call here?
13234I wonder what can have become of that blue one?"
13234I''ve some errands to do, and I''ll show you the city with pleasure; or would you prefer sitting here and looking around you?"
13234If a fellow really means to do a thing, what does he wait to be punched up about it everlastingly for?
13234If danger comes to you, have you this day asked Christ to be your helper?
13234If death comes to you this night, are you prepared to give up your account?
13234If he would that she should do her earthly work by lying down very soon in the unbroken calm of the"rest that remaineth,""what was that to her?"
13234If the child finds any comfort in such an atmosphere, where''s the harm?
13234If we really expect to meet our Savior at a prayer- meeting, is n''t it a delightful thought?
13234In case you are the happy man, I hope you are grateful?"
13234In the meantime, where is the tea- bell?"
13234Is Thursday your regular prayer- meeting evening, Ester?"
13234Is it necessary?"
13234Is n''t it so?"
13234Is n''t it splendid, though?
13234Is n''t it?
13234Is not the Bible doctrine,''He that is not for me is against me?''
13234Is that Miss Sadie Ried''s logic?"
13234Is that sound logic, Sadie?
13234Is that stranger by your side a fellow- pilgrim?
13234Is that the way to speak to your sister?
13234Is the Savior untrue to his promises, or is his professed servant untrue to him?"
13234Is there anything else, mother, before I put the top on?"
13234Is there_ nobody_ to help us?"
13234It''s an awful homely name, I think, do n''t you?
13234Jones?"
13234Julia, what is that you want to know?"
13234May I advise you, professionally, to go in immediately?"
13234May I ask why?"
13234May I ask you?
13234Mother, ca n''t I have one of Ester''s cookies?
13234Mr. Ried came to an upright posture, and even Ralph asked a startled question:"Where is she going?"
13234Mrs. Ried called,"ca n''t you come and wash up these baking dishes?
13234Mrs. Ried was even more hopeless a dependence than Ester; and Mr. Ried cried out in the very agony of despair:"What_ shall_ we do?
13234Nothing?
13234Now if her hands had found work waiting for her down this first flight of stairs instead of down two, as she had planned, what was that to her?
13234Now was Abbie right and she wrong?
13234Oh why was it?
13234Oh, Ester, you have a little brother; are n''t you so glad he is a_ little_ boy?"
13234Oh, Sadie, I have led you astray, may I not help you back?"
13234Oh, what_ was_ Ester to say?
13234Oh, would the gracious Spirit which had been struggling with him leave him indeed to himself?
13234On foot?
13234Ought I to welcome you, or you me-- which is it?
13234Perhaps he is a Christian now; is he?"
13234Plans?
13234Poor, poor Abbie she had been so bright and so good, and Mr. Foster had been so entirely her guide-- how could she ever endure it?
13234Pray, Miss Ester, was Mrs. Burton''s report irreligious?"
13234Presently Ester came out to them:"Sadie, ca n''t you go to the office for me?
13234Presently Julia recovered her composure, and commenced with--"Say, Ester, what makes you prick little holes all over your biscuits?"
13234Presently she addressed Ester in a bright little tone:"Does n''t it bore you dreadfully to wait in a depot?"
13234Sadie laughed, and ran her fingers lightly over the keys; but she asked:"In which class do you place your brother in the profession, Doctor?"
13234Sadie, are you going to the lyceum tonight?"
13234Sadie, where is mother?"
13234Say, you_ dear_ Ester, how_ did_ you happen to come?
13234Shall I bid you good- evening, sir?"
13234Shall you and I have prayers together to- night?
13234She is to go, is n''t she?"
13234She no longer said,"Ought I?"
13234Sis"--turning suddenly to Abbie--"Have you prepared Ester for her fate?
13234Sis, has Foster made a temperance man of you entirely; I see you are devoted to ice water?"
13234Sis, how could you have the conscience to perpetrate a wedding in August?
13234So do please tell me, ought I to be in a lunatic asylum somewhere instead of preparing to go to Europe?"
13234Suppose I hang up some of these dresses?
13234Suppose I see what it is?
13234Surely, she could not be a fanatic?
13234That is only natural and courteous, is it not?"
13234That you are making much ado about nothing, for the sake of showing your astonishing skill?"
13234The question is, do you understand yourself?
13234Then he turned suddenly to Ester, and spoke in a quiet, respectful tone:"Is the stranger by my side a fellow- pilgrim?"
13234Then what have you done against Him?
13234Then, more gravely:"Dr. Van Anden, do you really mean me to think that I was perverting Scripture?"
13234They''re kind of startling questions like; enough to most scare a body, unless you was trying pretty hard, now ai n''t they?"
13234They_ stung_ her, those words:"Auntie Essie''s cross, is n''t she?"
13234Though what my motive could be I can not imagine, can you?
13234WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE?
13234WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE?
13234Was he, after all, mistaken?
13234Was her profession a mockery, her life a miserably acted lie?
13234Was it merely chance that this sentence had so persistently met her eye all this day, put the card where she would?
13234Was it possible that she must leave Sadie, bright, brilliant, unsafe Sadie, and go away where she could work for her no more?
13234Was no one to give it voice?
13234Was not the Lord ashamed of them all, I wonder?
13234Was she a child, to be commanded by any one?
13234Was she never to be at peace again?
13234Was that cross borne only for men?
13234Was this man, moving toward the very verge of the river, afraid?
13234Were there many out?"
13234Were they right, and was she all wrong?
13234Were you not giving the children wrong ideas concerning the teachings of our Savior?"
13234Were you, Auntie Essie?"
13234What could I have expected from Uncle Ralph''s son?
13234What could there be in this young man to cause anxiety, or to wish changed?
13234What does it mean?"
13234What does she know about the petty vexations and temptations, and bewildering, ever- pressing duties which every hour of every day beset your path?
13234What earthly right had this man whom she_ detested_ to give_ her_ advice?
13234What else am I strange about, Ester?"
13234What have you done to- day for Christ?
13234What if she should?
13234What is the matter?
13234What is there so shocking in a quiet glass of wine enjoyed with a select gathering of one''s friends?"
13234What mattered hers compared to_ HIS_?
13234What mattered it that they would be likely to ascribe a wrong motive to my caution?
13234What possessed the fellow to come whining around me to- night, and set me in a whirl of disagreeable thought?
13234What right had any one to speak in that way of Dr. Douglass?
13234What then?"
13234What will that do to it?
13234What would Abbie say to the fact that there were many, many prayerless days in her life?
13234What would Jesus think?
13234What would people think?
13234What would they say to her?
13234What would your record of this last day be?
13234What, then, sustained and guided her cousin?
13234What_ could_ she say?
13234What_ did_ this mean?
13234What_ was_ she to say?
13234What_ will_ people think?"
13234Whatever takes Foster abroad just now, any way?"
13234Where are they?"
13234Where are you and Sadie reading?"
13234Where do you like best to read, for devotional reading I mean?"
13234Where is Abbie?"
13234Where is Mr. Newton?
13234Where is that article?
13234Where should she read?
13234Where?"
13234Who could have written those sentences?
13234Who knows but I shall find a fortune hidden in it?"
13234Who lives in that little birdsnest of a cottage just across the way?"
13234Whom do you suppose she is to marry?
13234Why can not the rest of you be equally sensible?"
13234Why do n''t you ask Ester?
13234Why do you all act so strangely?
13234Why do you think I am not one of his admirers?"
13234Why had she come into that room at all?
13234Why have you come?
13234Why should not she say,"By his stripes_ I_ am healed?"
13234Why should those words have such strange power over her?
13234Why was he not glad to discover that Dr. Van Anden was more of a man than he had ever supposed?
13234Why, Ester, what have I been guilty of just now?"
13234Why, where is mother?"
13234Why?
13234Will Ester ever forget the start of terror which thrilled her frame as she felt that look and heard that word?
13234Will I, Birdie?"
13234Will it seem homelike to you?
13234Will you hold my horses, Miss Sadie, while I dispatch matters within?"
13234Will you never seek it for yourself, Sadie?"
13234Will you not ride down with me; it is unpleasant walking?"
13234Will you pardon my obtuseness and explain to me the wherefore?"
13234Will you promise, Sadie?"
13234Will you watch with her?"
13234Wo n''t the boys chuckle over these pies, though?
13234Wo n''t you consider the apparent inconsistency a little?
13234Wo n''t you enlighten me, Miss Ester?"
13234Would Ester want to die so, with no voice to cry for her to that listening Savior?
13234Would it be proper, under the circumstances, to refuse?
13234Would n''t you like to see anybody who did all that?"
13234Would that obviate your difficulty?"
13234Would you go to my sister, sir?"
13234Would you mind going down with me just to look at his face again?"
13234Yet such people as you and I ca n''t help having eyes and ears, and using them now and then, can we?"
13234Yet would it be proper to do violence to her sense of right?
13234Yet, had Ester nothing for which to be thankful that the group on the piazza had not?
13234You and I will have some precious readings out of this book, shall we not?
13234You are roommates, are n''t you?
13234You''ll room with me, Ester, wo n''t you?
13234_ Could_ He be glorified, though, by such very little things?
13234and Ester laughed at her former question; then, as a sudden thought occurred to her, she asked:"Is he a minister?"
13234and to be placed there in a conspicuous corner of a fashionable store?
13234but,"Can I?"
13234is he?"
13234is n''t she?"
13234or, dear Ester, would you prefer to be alone?"
13234or, in other words, how many professing Christians do you know who are particularly improved in your estimation by their professions?"
13234or, more properly speaking, what will it_ not_ do, inasmuch as it is not there to_ do_?
13234sure enough, Ester, who knows?"
13234was n''t she a Christian after all?
13234were they the only ones who had a thank- offering because of Calvary?
13234what_ possessed_ you to put her up there?"
13234why had she tried to rid herself of the sight of them?
13234you would n''t, if the Bible said you must n''t, would you?"
