5357And then?
5357Are n''t you too ambitious?
5357Do you know any better now?
5357Do you?

5357Hodder, how would you like to live in this house-- alone?
5357How do you do?
5357How is Mr. Parr? 5357 Is there anything else?"

5357Mr. Parr and our host are coming down handsomely, eh? 5357 That''s just it,"he agreed,"why do n''t we?
5357The engine has lost its governor?
5357Then it is n''t the physical miracle you object to, especially?
5357Then you have n''t read it? 5357 To- morrow-- why?
5357What if we ca n''t believe?
5357What is it in particular,he asked, troubled,"that you can not accept?
5357Why did n''t you come to me earlier?
5357Why?
5357Wo n''t you sit down?
5357You have promised to make other visits? 5357 You mean that you can not accept what the Church teaches about his life?"
5357And is n''t it by his very individuality that we are able to recognize Jesus to- day?"
5357And just what was the iron grating?
5357And to what end were his labours in that smoky, western city, with its heedless Dalton Streets, which went their inevitable ways?

5357But were they not, he asked himself, franker than many of these others, the so- called pillars of the spiritual structure?

5357But why had he been unable to apply it?
5357CHAPTER VI"WATCHMAN, WHAT OF THE NIGHT?"
5357Constable-- why?"
5357Did any one of them, in his heart, care anything for the ideals and aspirations of the Church?
5357For had he not, indeed, overborne them?
5357Had he ever forgotten himself?
5357Had he not, after all, laboured largely for his own glory, and not Gods?
5357Hodder?"
5357Hodder?"
5357If marriage is to be a mere trial of compatibility, why go through a ceremony than which there is none more binding in human and divine institutions?
5357In the center, the soft red glow of the candles, the gleaming silver, the shining cloth, the Church on one side-- and what on the other?
5357Is n''t it because the control has been taken off?"
5357It''s pulled him down,--you''ve noticed that he looks badly?"
5357Oh, why has life become such a problem?
5357The Goddess of Liberty linked to-- what?"
5357The figures, to be of any use, ought to appeal to my imagination-- oughtn''t they?
5357The question is, why are they so?
5357Was it because he could n''t satisfy her craving?
5357Was she the divorced daughter, or was she not?
5357Was there, after all, something in him that responded in spite of himself?
5357Were it not more simple to accept what life sent in its orderly course instead of striving for an impossible and shadowy ideal?

5357Why did n''t that religion that she seemed outwardly to profess and accept without qualification-- the religion he taught set her at rest?
5357Why is it so difficult for all of us to know what to do?"
5357Why not he?
5357Why not yield to the enchantment?
5357Why rebel, when nobody else complained?
5357Why this insatiate ambition on his part in an age of unbelief?
5357Why was it that he incited a perverse desire to utter heresies?
5357Why was it that, to Hodder, he should gradually have assumed something of the aspect of a Cerberus?
5357Why was it they could not be standing side by side, fighting the same fight?
5357Will you permit me to recommend to you certain books dealing with these questions in a modern way?"
5357You know the way a child''s breath catches, Hodder?
5357You speak of incompatibility--but is it in all cases such an insignificant matter?
5357You''ve never seen all of the house, have you?"
5357give her the solution for which-- he began to see-- she thirsted?
5357show her the path?
45387= Where are the soldiers? 45387 A moment ago we asked, which is the Christian religion? 45387 And why? 45387 Are not these enough to make it sacred to all men? 45387 Are they the friends of the moral life, who perplex our conscience with conundrums? 45387 But are there not examples of the highest morality in the Christian world? 45387 But how are we going to dislodge him from his position? 45387 But which Christian religion does he mean? 45387 Could you be blamed for refusing to credit a statement which there is no evidence to establish? 45387 God or no God, a future life or no future life, is not temperance better than intemperance? 45387 How can a being, who does not live up to his profession,--who breaks his own commandments, be our moral ideal or model? 45387 How can a man with the example of heroic Japan fresh and fragrant before him, think of this earth as a hell without hisshibboleth?"
45387How can they be the same being?
45387How can they be the same being?
45387If I were to say to you,"You must believe that George Washington was the first president of America,"would you deserve any credit for believing it?
45387If a doctrine or proposition should be accepted as true in the absence of convincing evidence, why then is not Mohammedanism as true as Christianity?
45387If instead of being a religion of love, Christianity were a religion of hate, could it be less generous?
45387If instead of being the religion of the"meek and lowly"it were the religion of the proud and the haughty, could it have been more conceited?
45387If the mere belief in a God is enough, why is not the Mohammedan God enough?
45387If the one is as Christian as the other, why then do they try to convert each other-- why do the Catholics send missionaries to the Protestants?
45387If the only way we can appreciate our own morality is by defaming the majority of humanity, how contemptible must our morality he?
45387If there is no future glory, who will abstain from meat on Friday, or sprinkle his children, or read the Bible or listen to sermons?
45387If you can not answer his question, why attack his character?
45387Is it Christian Science?
45387Is it Lutheranism?
45387Is it Methodism?
45387Is it Presbyterianism?
45387Is it Unitarianism?
45387Is it any wonder that the"heathen"distrust the Christian nations of Europe and America?
45387Is it because he expects to be rewarded for it in the next life?
45387Is it not fortunate that only one day in seven is devoted to church- going?
45387Is it the Baptist Church?
45387Is it the church of England?
45387Is it true?
45387Is the moral life as easy as that?
45387Is this inspiring?
45387Now this protestant religion which is alone the hope of the world, what is it?
45387Oh, how long will it take before this black earth of ours shall change its color?
45387We now ask, which is the protestant religion?
45387What are we going to do,--if we associate morality with a being whose character is in dispute?
45387What did we do?
45387What do we do?
45387What does a mother think of in her last moments?
45387What gentle and refined mind can stand the strain?
45387What had this man done to deserve such sudden glorification?
45387What importance did Jesus attach to the moral life?
45387What is there in a belief in God which should be indispensable to the moral life?
45387What is there in this Palestinian Jew whom our famous preacher worships as his god that can tempt a man to bear even false witness for his sake?
45387What then is atheism?
45387Which of these, then, is the true protectant religion without which no morality is possible in this world or salvation in the next?
45387Which, then, is the Christian religion without which there can be no morality?
45387Who can walk straight under the weight of such crushing pessimism?
45387Why do people desire health?
45387Why is an employer of labor good to his men?
45387Why is not a bit of blue glass as good as a God?
45387Why should Bishop Anderson have less courage, or be more cautious?
45387Why should the moral life be inseparably associated with a belief in God?
45387Why then be moral at all?
45387Why, then, are they separated?
45387Will this father be less a father without the belief in future rewards?
2603Did you get him?
2603RECENTLY a London magazine sent out 1,000 inquiries on the question,''What is home?'' 2603 Where is Hardy?"
2603Will you please look through my mouth and nose?
2603''See what?''
2603''Where did you get them?''
2603''Whose establishment is that?''
2603A fellow- creature there, and we on shore?
2603And yet, who is at fault?
2603And, boys, what do you suppose that package was?
2603As one has asked:"Could fools to keep their own contrive, On whom, on what could gamesters thrive?"
2603But how is one to do this with so many demands made upon her?
2603But one asks, If tobacco is so injurious, why is it used with such apparent pleasure?
2603But quickly one replies,"Why should there be any social glass?"
2603But who is this aged woman with worn garments and disheveled hair, with agonized entreaty falling upon her knees beside this brave, strong man?
2603Did you save them all?"
2603Dr. J. M. Buckley asks:"Have you a purpose and a plan?"
2603Have I a friend?
2603How can one be in their company, be moved to laughter and to tears and not be contaminated by them?

2603How shall the company disband in due season?
2603How shall we oppose the evil?
2603I can invoice my stock, my goods, my land, my money, can I invoice my friends?
2603I said to myself,"What does God mean to allow me to worship here?"
2603If Christ Himself were here in body, do you know what He would advise on this point?
2603Is family worship formal, or has it ceased?
2603Is the class- meeting becoming extinct?
2603Is the prayer- meeting lifeless?
2603Is the revival spirit decaying?
2603It becomes a question which is of greater importance, the life and health of the wife and mother, or the paltry wages of a servant?
2603It is not true that the dance, as an institution, is not patronized by the most capable in conversation and companionship?
2603It might be a mark of credit rather than an embarrassment for one to answer,"No,"to the question,"Have you read the latest book?"
2603Now, how may we get the largest amount of pleasure, of rest, of recreation from such gatherings?
2603Says Holmes:"Do n''t you know how hard it is for some people to get out of a room when their visit is really over?
2603She kept quiet as long as she could; but finally rising came to them, and addressing the judge, asked:''Do you know me?''
2603THE PRACTICAL QUESTION FOR US HERE AND NOW IS, How may we openly oppose this drink evil?
2603The first man to help them land was Hardy, whose words rang above the roar of the breakers:"Are you all here?
2603The judge turned to the trembling woman and said:"This is a pretty clear case, madam; have you anything to say in your defense?"
2603There should not be a social glass; but what has that to do with the fact that the social glass is here?
2603To what may we turn?
2603WHAT IS FRIENDSHIP?
2603WHAT IS HOME?
2603We answer, by asking, Will one''s home be happier and more prosperous without some deadly Foe continually invading it, or with such a Foe?
2603What did Agassiz find on that tour?
2603What is our duty?

2603What is the uncertain mark of a friend?
2603What principles are to guide one in his choice of reading, that he may select only the wisest, purest, and helpfulest from all these classes of books?
2603What was her end?
2603When Great Britain went a little too far in"taxation without representation,"what course did the American Colonies adopt in remedying the evil?
2603When a Territory is organized, or a State comes into the Union, what is done?
2603When the British Government unduly impressed American seamen, how was the difficulty settled?
2603When we wanted to increase our territory in 1803, and in 1845, and in 1867, how did we go about it?
2603When will the drink evil cease in our country?
2603When will we have representatives in Congress, lawmakers who will stand for the abolition of the saloon, and who will vote it out of existence?
2603Where may we go?
2603Who does not find himself, daily, looking through other people''s glasses, weighing on other people''s scales, sounding other people''s voices?
2603Who does this, if it is done?
2603Who is it that feeds and supports them?
2603Who is it that helps one to places of honor and usefulness?
2603Who is it that recognizes one''s true worth, extols his virtues, and gives tone and quality to the diligent services of months and years?
2603Who knows what such an one will do next?
2603Whoever heard of a first- class loafer who did not e- a- t the weed or burn it, or both?
2603Would it be narrow or uncharitable to assert that not to stand upon this platform argues that one is not sober, or not informed, or not conscientious?
2603You answer,"Why allow these fountains of death to exist?"
2603You ask, Will one''s body be healthier and live longer without tobacco than with it?
2603leave one there to die alone?
22105''Why even of yourselves,''He said,''judge ye not what is right?''
22105''[ 13] If the soul''s function is purely formal how can we attain to a self- contained life?
22105''[ 26] What then ought to be the attitude of the Church to the industrial questions of our day?
22105''[ 9] The question,''What would Jesus do?''
22105( 1) What was Christ''s ideal of the Christian life?
22105( 3) The question arises, Which is the normal experience?
2210582 Is Man free to choose the Good?
22105And first, What is the supreme good?
22105And if he is made for God, how is he so opposite to God?
22105And if it be still asked, What is the great inducement?
22105And is there not something sublime in this demand of God that the noblest part of man should be consecrated to Him?
22105And may not they, too, be consecrated to the glory of God?
22105And, on the other hand, if a man is once alive to his real good, how can he do otherwise than pursue it?
22105Are Christians to stand apart from the coming battle, and preach only the great salvation to individual souls?
22105Are not the joys of life, and even its amusements, among God''s gifts designed for the enriching of character?
22105But is not character, with which Ethics confessedly deals, just that concerning which no definite conclusions can be predicted?
22105But what is this commonsense of which the ordinary man vaunts himself?
22105But, as has been pertinently asked,''How does he know that the earth is solid on which he builds?''
22105Can man choose and decide for a spiritual world above that in which he is by nature involved?
22105Christian Ethics, on the other hand, is concerned primarily with the question, By what power can a man achieve the right and do the good?
22105Christianity is the supreme type of religion because it best answers the question,''What can religion do for life?''
22105Does not the example of Jesus offer a simpler and more natural ideal?
22105Does not the very existence of physical science imply the priority of thought?
22105For as he himself teaches, the question,''What should I do?''
22105For what should a man live?
22105Hence the chief business of Ethics is to answer the question: What is the supreme good?
22105Hence the practical problem which Christian Ethics has to face is, How can the spiritual ideal be made a reality?
22105How do I know it?
22105If this is not Christian work, what is?''
22105If we ask who is the good man?
22105In the collision of opinions who is to arbitrate?
22105Is Ethics a Science?
22105Is it a personal God, or is it only an impersonal spirit, which pervades and interpenetrates the universe?
22105Is it an ego, a thinking self?
22105Is not conduct, dependent as it is on the human will, just the element in man which can not be explained as the resultant of calculable forces?
22105Is the kingdom of God a realm apart and separate from all the other domains of activity?
22105Is the ultimate of life a state in which conscience will pervade every department of a man''s being, dominating all his thoughts and activities?
22105It is characteristic of him that when he discusses the question, Is life worth living?
22105It is not enough to ask what is most attractive, what line of life will ensure the greatest material gain or worldly honour?
22105It proposes the three great questions involved in all ethical inquiry-- whither?
22105Men are impatiently asking,''Has the Church no message to the new demands of the age?
22105No longer content with blindly accepting the formulae of the past, men are prompted to ask, whence do these customs come, and what is their authority?
22105Plato''s discussion of the question,''What is the highest good?''
22105Rather should we ask, Where shall I be safest from moral danger, and, above all, in what position of life, open to me, can I do the most good?
22105The prime question is, What is the nature of its testimony?
22105The prime question of Christian Ethics is, How ought Christians to order their lives?
22105The question for each is, How much can he make of them?
22105The question for the utilitarian must always arise,''How far ought I to follow my natural desires, and how far my altruistic?''
22105The question has been seriously asked, Can the example and teaching of Jesus be really adopted in modern life as the pattern and rule of conduct?
22105The question has constantly arisen, Which is the more important for life-- what we receive or what we create?
22105The question, therefore, which arises is, Whence comes the idea of duty which is an undeniable fact of our experience?
22105The word does not, indeed, occur in the Old Testament, but the question of God to Adam,''Where art thou?''
22105To horde[ Transcriber''s note: hoard?]
22105We are constrained to ask what is this independent spiritual life?
22105What am I and how do I know?
22105What does it matter to him whether Nero be a devil or a saint?
22105What is it that makes the life of the Christian worth living?
22105What is my purpose, what am I to do?
22105What is the highest for which a man should live?
22105What is the origin of the soul?
22105What is the world?
22105What, in short, is the ideal of life?
22105What, then, are the particular forms or manifestations of character which result from the Christian interpretation of life?
22105When men thus begin to reflect on the origin and connection of things, three questions at once suggest themselves-- what, how, and why?
22105Whence comes this mystic power?
22105Why are these philosophers so anxious to conserve the ethical consequences of life?
22105[ 20] Is deception under all circumstances morally wrong?
22105[ 4] But can this position be vindicated?
22105[ 5]''When I dared question:"It is beautiful, But is it true?"
22105and why am I here?
22105and why?
22105and( 2) Did Jesus regard the kingdom as purely future, or as already begun?
22105how?
22105leads inevitably to the further question,''What may I hope?
22105or is it only a complex of vibrations or mechanical impressions bound together in a particular body which, for convenience, is called an ego?
22105or is the ideal condition one in which conscience shall be outgrown and its operation rendered superfluous?
22105{ 153} If, therefore, we ask, What is the deepest spring of action, what is the incentive and motive power for the Christian?
5361A-- a special occasion there-- a bishop or something?
5361Alison?
5361And now what will happen?
5361And now?
5361And what had happened? 5361 And what leads you to suppose,"he inquired,"that I am responsible in this matter?
5361And you think it right to teach things to your children which you do not yourself believe?
5361But my husband-- my children? 5361 But the doctrines of the Church, which we were taught from childhood to believe?
5361But what I came to ask you is this-- what are we to teach our children?
5361But-- why did you come?
5361Ca n''t we take you home, Alison? 5361 Can it be possible that you misunderstand me?
5361Conviction?
5361Did you have a good sermon?
5361Do they in any manner affect your conduct?
5361Do you believe in them yourself?
5361Do you feel that?
5361Do you mean to say that I am not-- myself?
5361Does n''t the Bible say, somewhere,she inquired,"that the Sabbath was made for man?
5361Have come to what?
5361Have you finished?
5361He that hath seen me hath seen the Father;and"Why callest thou me good?
5361How am I to decide?
5361How are you, Hodder? 5361 How are you, Mr. Hodder?
5361How do I feel? 5361 How do you feel about these things yourself?"
5361Inefficiency?
5361My conduct?
5361Oh, I know that my father and the others will try to put him out-- but can they?
5361Oh, why should n''t I?
5361Surely you have n''t been here all summer?
5361The occasion?
5361Was there a special service at Calvary yesterday?
5361What do you mean?
5361What do you mean?
5361What do you think my life has been? 5361 What would you have had me do?"
5361What would you have me do?
5361What''s the occasion to- day?
5361What''s the trouble, Hodder?
5361What''s your name?
5361What''s yours?
5361Where are you going?
5361Where''s father? 5361 Which doctrines?"
5361Which doctrines?
5361Why,he said, why did you have nothing but cruelty in your heart, and contempt for her?
5361Why?
5361Would you be good enough to step into the library?
5361Ye''ll tell him to his face?
5361Ye''re going to preach all this?
5361You know why I am here?
5361You mean-- what was my motive?
5361You thought I''d come to it?
5361You were taught to believe them?
5361And could it be a Truth, after all, a truth only to be grasped by one who had experienced it?
5361And could you think I did n''t understand, from the beginning, that it meant this?"
5361And she added, a little lamely for her,"Spiritual matters in these days are so difficult, are n''t they?"
5361And those who held it might well demand, with Nicodemus and the rulers of the earth,"How can these things be?"
5361And what should be said of the vast and ever increasing numbers of those not connected with the Church, who had left it or were leaving it?
5361And when, let me ask you, could you find in the world''s history more splendid charities than are around us to- day?
5361And which among them would declare that Abraham Lincoln, like Stephen, had not seen his Master in the sky?
5361And will they not always continue to exist?
5361And with all our works, our expenditure and toil, how many have we lifted up?"
5361And would n''t he lunch with her on Thursday?
5361Are not the very pews in which they sit as closed to us as their houses?"
5361Are their churches for the poor?
5361At what time will you be ready?"
5361But should we, for that reason, return to the leading- strings of authority?
5361But whence-- it might be demanded by the cynical were the prophets to come?
5361Ca n''t you make a plan for me, so that I may begin next spring?
5361Come now, what world you have done, if your son had been in question?"
5361Could we if we would?
5361Did Eldon Purr, after all; have no sense of guilt?
5361Did he know she would be there?
5361Did he know-- asked the sender of this-- could he know the consternation he had caused in so many persons, including herself?
5361Do you think that business men are always infallible?
5361From what authoritative source are we to draw our doctrines?
5361Has Mr. Hodder offended him?
5361I ask whether these stories in any way enter into your life, become part of you, and tend to make you a more useful woman?"
5361I know it will be late in the season,--but do n''t you think you could take us, Alison?
5361Institutions endowed for medical research, for the conquest of deadly diseases?
5361Is that what you mean?"
5361Is their God a God who will lift us out of our misery and distress?
5361Legally?
5361Or shall we draw our conclusions as to what the Creeds may mean to us by pondering on the life of Christ, and striving to do his will?
5361Or was it something in Hodder''s voice that seemed to illumine the ancient words with a new meaning?
5361Parr?"
5361Shall we interpret the Gospels by the Creeds, which in turn purport to be interpretations of the Gospels?
5361Shall you be there?"
5361These had stood still, anchored to their traditions, while she--had she grown?
5361Was Christ like that?
5361Was it possible that she, Alison Parr, were going to church now?
5361What did McCrae think of him?
5361What leads you to infer that the Consolidated Tractions Company was not organized in good faith?
5361What was she to believe?
5361What, then, was the function, the mission of the Church Universal?
5361When you saw how meekly she obeyed you, and agreed to go away, why did you not have pity?
5361Where are you to find what are called the doctrines of the Church?
5361Who can say that the modern capitalist is not liberal, is not a public benefactor?
5361Why did n''t you come to me?
5361Why had Mrs. Constable supposed that she would care to hear the sermon praised?
5361Would he not let her come and talk to him?
5361Years had gone by since she had prayed, and even now she made no attempt to translate into words the intensity of her yearning-- for what?
5361libraries, hospitals, schools-- men giving their fortunes for these things, the fruits of a life''s work so laboriously acquired?
5361or merely wandered?

5362Ah,said Bedloe Hubbell,"how is it possible to predict it?
5362And for me?
5362And he gave you something?
5362And why, did you go then?
5362And you? 5362 And you?"
5362And-- others?
5362Are George and Sally here?
5362Are they any worse?
5362Are you willing,he asked, after a moment,"to make the supreme renunciation?
5362But Mr. Parr, too--?
5362But what--?
5362Can Christianity really mean that-- renunciation of the world? 5362 Can not you, too, believe to that extent?"
5362Did you like it?
5362Do n''t you see, dear, that it is just because your future as obscure that I can do this? 5362 Do n''t you?"
5362Do you mean,he demanded, when he had caught his breath,"that you intend to attack us publicly?"
5362Do you realize-- can you ever realize what your faith in me has been to me?
5362Do you remember when we were here together, the day I met Mr. Bentley? 5362 Do you think there is a chance?"
5362Everything?
5362Foolish?
5362Gone where?
5362Have n''t they the right,he asked, somewhat lamely to demand the kind of religion they pay for?"
5362Have you seen Phil?
5362How could I, Alison?
5362I wonder if you know, Mr. Hodder, what an admirer Mr. Hubbell is of yours?
5362Is n''t it the braver thing?
5362Is n''t there any other way but that? 5362 Is that the only punishment you can conceive of?"
5362Is-- Is that your faith, Alison?
5362It was nothing-- more serious, then? 5362 Langmaid,"Holder asked,"do n''t you ever get tired and disgusted with the Juggernaut car?"
5362Now that Preston has come home--"Your brother?
5362Oh, Mr. Hodder,she cried impulsively,"was it necessary to go so far?
5362Oh, dad,she cried,"why are you so- late?
5362Say, they march in in this kind of a church, do n''t they?
5362So you have been given the idea that my sermon was socialistic?
5362Surely, Mrs. Constable, once I have arrived at what I believe to be the truth, you would not have me temporize?
5362The architect?
5362Were you? 5362 What do you think of me as?"
5362What do you think of this?
5362What have I done to deserve so priceless a thing?
5362What''s this I hear about your moving out of Hamilton Place, Mr. Waring? 5362 When are you leaving?"
5362Why did not some one tell me this, when I was young?
5362Why did you come with me?
5362Why?
5362Will he succeed?
5362Wo n''t you take my taxicab?
5362Would it have done any good?
5362Would it have made any difference, Plimpton?
5362Would you have agreed with me any better than you do now? 5362 Would you have me desert him-- after all these years?"
5362Would you prefer,he asked,"to see my soul destroyed?
5362Yes?
5362You do believe in the future life after-- after what you have been through?
5362You do n''t think she has done anything-- desperate?
5362You have tried?
5362You mean-- social work?
5362You see it, too?
5362You will write me to- morrow,she said,"after you have seen the bishop?"
5362You wo n''t stay and have dinner with me?
5362You''ve inquired there?
5362And do you quite do justice to-- to some of these men?
5362And have n''t we both discovered the world, and renounced it?
5362And is n''t marriage truer and higher when man and wife start with difficulties and problems to solve together?
5362And suppose you fail?
5362And then there is another question: is it going to continue to be profitable?
5362And yet, if Mr. Bentley and Sally Grower had been unable to foresee and prevent this, what could he have done?
5362And your own?"
5362Because they will be victories-- don''t you see?
5362But was n''t there,--mayn''t there still be a way to deal with this fearful situation?
5362Ca n''t this transformation, which you say is necessary and vital, come gradually?
5362Continue to preach them for the sake of the lethargic peace of which you speak?
5362Could he control it, subdue it?
5362Could he ride it?
5362Could n''t you have managed to stick to religion instead of getting mixed up with socialism?"
5362Did n''t you need me, just a little?"
5362Did you ever hear of Jennings Howe?"
5362Did you think, did you wonder a little about me?"
5362Do n''t you understand that I am demanding the great sacrifice?"
5362Do you realize how austere you are at times, how you have frightened me?"
5362Do you think me shameless?"
5362Does that shock you?"
5362Have you any idea why I came out here, this summer?
5362Have you the courage?"
5362Hodder exclaimed:"You knew then?"
5362How about it, Everett?"
5362How are such things to be measured, put into words?
5362How, indeed, had life once appeared so distorted to him, a professed servant of humanity, as to lead him in the name of duty into that galley?
5362I want to know all of you-- all, do you understand?
5362If we clear all the cobwebs away, what is the real function of this church as at present constituted?
5362Is it as profitable now as it was, say, twenty years ago?
5362Is it-- sacrilegious?"
5362Is n''t it strange,"she exclaimed wonderingly,"that he should have come into both our lives, with such an influence, at this time?"
5362Is n''t that enough?"
5362It makes me wonder how it can be guided-- what will come of it?"
5362John''s?"
5362Must we take it in the drastic sense of the Church of the early centuries- the Church of the Martyrs?"
5362Nothing, I mean, directly affecting your prospects of remaining-- where you are?"
5362Shall I make a complete confession?
5362Shall I tell you that I fell in love with him?
5362Tell me,"she implored,"what can I do?
5362Was it possible that he had no sense of guilt?
5362Were not their standards the same?
5362What did it matter, if the essential Thing were present?
5362What shall I do?
5362What would the bishop do?
5362What would you have me do, as a man?
5362Whom, then, would he put forward?
5362Why had they come?
5362Why in the world did you have to go and make all this trouble?"
5362Why this heavy expenditure to maintain religious services for a handful of people?
5362Would he destroy, too, this clergyman?
5362You think he is wonderful, then?"
5362and how had they received the message?
5362he exclaimed:"What can I have done?"
5362leave the church paralyzed, as I found it?"
5362or would it crush him remorselessly?
5362to face poverty, and perhaps disgrace, to save your soul and others?"
5360And as for your other authority, your ordinary man, when he reads modern philosophy, says to himself, this does not conflict with science? 5360 And if we let go, what would happen to the country?"
5360And now what has happened? 5360 And the Atonement?
5360And the spark,she demanded,"is not Socialism-- their nightmare?"
5360And what is the result,he cried,"of the senseless insistence on the letter instead of the spirit of the poetry of religion?
5360And wo n''t they succeed? 5360 But ca n''t they make you resign?"
5360But can he hurt you, Phil-- either of you?
5360But if he''s become a socialist?
5360But the law?
5360But what is our point of view, Nell?
5360But while stronger men are honest,she objected,"are not your ancient vows and ancient Creeds continually making weaker men casuists?"
5360Ca n''t the vestry make him resign?
5360Classified?
5360Do what?
5360Do you really think so?
5360Do you see that bottle? 5360 Give orders?"
5360Good morning, Sam,he said;"is Mr. Bentley in?"
5360Have you asked him?
5360Have you found the new one?
5360If you do n''t believe in it,demanded Mr. Plimpton, why the deuce do n''t you drop it?"
5360Is n''t it a good deal like Professor Bridges'', only we''re not quite so learned? 5360 Is n''t it enough,"he asked,"to know that a force is at work combating evil,--even if you are not yet convinced that it is a prevailing force?
5360Looking over the ground?
5360Now- what do I mean by I trusting? 5360 Pleasure?"
5360Say,she asked him once,"why are you doing this?"
5360That''s just it,she wondered intimately,"where?
5360Then it is n''t his change of religious opinions they would care about?
5360Well-- Hodder did n''t give you any intimation as to what he intended to do about that sort of thing, did he?
5360What are you doing herein the marts of trade? 5360 What do you mean by nonsense?"
5360What does he expect us to do,--allow our real estate to remain unproductive merely for sentimental reasons? 5360 What is the place?"
5360What prevented you?
5360What sort of thing?
5360What the deuce does he intend to do?
5360What''s the matter, Wallis?
5360What''s this, Kate?
5360When we turn to John, what do we find? 5360 Why do you make me laugh,"she reproached him,"when the matter is so serious?
5360Why,he exclaimed, looking around him,"you have been busy, have n''t you?"
5360Would you know a heretic if you saw one?
5360Yes,she answered,"why?"
5360You imagined me out of the Church,--but where?
5360You think you have a chance, Miss Grower?
5360You wish to know?
5360You would n''t know me, would you?
5360A paragraph which made a profound impression on Hodder at that time occurs in James''s essay,"Is life worth living?"
5360Because a clergyman should choose to be quixotic, fanatical?
5360But a little relaxation-- eh?
5360But had he not merely arrested her?
5360But what is the new?
5360By the way, Nell, do you remember the verse the Professor quoted about the Pharisees, and cleansing the outside of the cup and platter?"
5360By the way, have you seen him since he got back?"
5360Could he save her in spite of herself?
5360Could the disintegration, in her case, be arrested?
5360Could there be another meaning in life than the pursuit of pleasure, than the weary effort to keep the body alive?
5360Did n''t I warn you fellows that Bedloe Hubbell meant business long before he started in?
5360Do you mind my telling Phil?"
5360Do you remember that talk we had at father''s, when he first came, and we likened him to a modern Savonarola?"
5360Do you think I ever can understand?"
5360Does that suggest anything to you clergymen?"
5360Engel?"
5360Had she fixed upon it?
5360Had the librarian recognized, without confession on his part, the change in him?
5360Have n''t they the power?"
5360Have our revised plans come yet?
5360He could retire to- morrow--but he keeps on-- why?
5360Hell''s here-- isn''t it?"
5360Hodder?"
5360How has Hodder changed?
5360How, practically, do you deal with the Creeds?
5360I thought he was a little seedy in the spring--didn''t you?
5360I wonder if it has struck you?
5360In Mr. Bentley''s soul?
5360Is n''t it because you''re so much of an individual that one fails to classify you?
5360Is the word to carry with it license to define in detail an invisible world, and to authorize and excommunicate those whose trust is different?
5360Langmaid asked sympathetically,"Harrod''s?"
5360Marriage?
5360Of what use is it to doubt the eternal justice?"
5360Of what use to quarrel with the word Person if God be conscious?
5360Order and design?
5360Parr?"
5360She herself appeared to acknowledge no bar to their further intimacy-- why should he?
5360Sometimes they get one with the doctrinal type of mind--a Newman-- but how often?
5360They will try to put you out, as a heretic,--won''t they?"
5360Was she waiting until he should have crossed the bar before she should pay some inexorable penalty of which he knew nothing?
5360Was the world on that principle, then?
5360Was this the orthodox Mr. Hodder of St. John''s?
5360Was this too deep?
5360We ought to break ground in November, ought n''t we?"
5360We shall have other talks,--yes?
5360What Judge was to unravel them, and assign the exact amount of responsibility?
5360What animated these persons who had struggled over her so desperately, Sally Grower, Mr. Bentley, and Hodder himself?
5360What did that mean?
5360What do you bother with me for?
5360What in the name of sense possessed you to get such a man?"
5360What is it that leads us to a certain man or woman at a certain time, or to open a certain book?
5360What might she do?
5360What right has he got to go nosing around Dalton Street?
5360What the deuce did the rector know?
5360Who are left, except father- in- law Waring and myself?"
5360Why did I take him away from Jerry Whitely, anyhow?"
5360Why do we read the Old Testament at all?
5360Why does n''t he stick to his church?"
5360Why?
5360Will you?"
5360Would he not fail to change, permanently, the texture of hers?
5360Would she not presently disappear, leaving only in his life the scarlet thread which she had woven into it for all time?
5360You understand me?
5360and did she linger now only that she might inspire him in his charge?
5360and how?
5360divined his future intentions?
5360does n''t that imply a sacrifice of propitiation?"
5360or influence?
5360that your former beliefs seemed so-- unlike you?"
18438WHAT is a miser?
18438What hast thou, that thou hast not received?
18438A miracle may save him, but nothing short of a miracle can do it, and who has a right to expect it?
18438After all where would the merit be in the service of God, if there were no difficulty?
18438And are there no sins of gluttony besides these?
18438And how can I tell where one act ends and the other begins?"
18438And how can he be taught, if he does not lay aside occupations that are incompatible with the acquisition of intellectual truths?
18438And if she errs here, what assurance is there that she does not err there?
18438And if we know nothing about it, how can we do either?
18438And then what becomes of honesty, and the right of property?
18438And what about the contract according to the terms of which you are to give your services and to receive in return a stipulated amount?
18438And what makes it rash?
18438And what security can anyone have against the private judgment of his neighbor?
18438And whence comes the knowledge of such sufficiency or insufficiency of motive?
18438And whether they believe it or not, will they, on your authority, have sufficient reason for giving credence to your words?
18438And who are the persons thus guilty of a manifold guilt?
18438And who is there that really thinks he is not worth more than he gets?
18438And why is this?
18438And why?
18438Are Papists the only ones to add to the holy writings, or to go counter to them?
18438Are there any motives capable of justifying these outbursts of passion?
18438Are there not Catholic books and publications of various sorts?
18438Are there reasons for this economy of salvation?
18438Are they likely to receive it as truth, either because they are looking for just such reports, or because they know no better?
18438Are we bound to keep our oaths?
18438But if it is nothing more than this, how came it to get on the table of the Law?
18438But is he bound to do this, morally?
18438But must I impoverish myself?
18438But suppose, being a Catholic, I can not see things in that true light, what then?
18438But the question may be:"To do or not to do; which is right and which is wrong?"
18438But what has that to do with the Communion of Saints?
18438But what is a right?
18438Can I not defend myself?"
18438Can it not only rob us of the power to will, not only force us to act without consent, but also force the will, force us to consent?
18438Can the will of God, unmistakably manifested, be thus disregarded and put aside by His creatures?
18438Can violence and fear do more than this?
18438Depravity?
18438Do they signify a swearing, by God, either in their natural sense or in their general acceptation?
18438Else why is fasting and abstinence-- two correctives of gluttony-- so much in honor and so universally recommended and commanded in the Church?
18438Even in human affairs, can one admit that two and three are seven?
18438First of all, what is a vow?
18438Has a person in misfortune the right to strike down another who has had no part in making that misfortune?
18438Has no one a right to differ from the Church?
18438Holding to Catholic principles how can he do otherwise?
18438How can a custodian of divine truth act otherwise?
18438How can he consistently seek after truth when he is convinced that he holds it?
18438How can he refuse to hear Catholic preaching and teaching, any more than Baptist, Methodist and Episcopalian doctrines?
18438How can he say she is right on one occasion, and wrong on another?
18438How long should the child be kept at school?
18438How many sins do I commit if the act lasts, say, two hours?
18438How then could He make intelligence the first principle of salvation and of faith?
18438IS SUICIDE A SIN?
18438If God made man, man belongs to Him; if from that possession flows a natural obligation to worship with heart and tongue, why not also of the body?
18438If it is lawful for a short time, why not for a long time?
18438If it is lawful to contract a solemn engagement with man, why not with God?
18438If the Church is right in this, why should she not be right in defining the Immaculate Conception?
18438If there are vocations in the natural life, why should there not be in the supernatural, which is just as truly a life?
18438If variety of aptitudes and likes determine difference of calling, why should this not hold good for the soul as well as for the body and mind?
18438If we can not assert, how can we deny?
18438If we can not rejoice with the neighbor, why be pained at his felicity?
18438In doubt the question may be:"To do; is it right or wrong?
18438In other words, is there nothing but venial sin in thefts of little values, or is there only one big sin at the end?
18438In this light we plead guilty; but is it simple bread?
18438In this sense, is monastic poverty a bad and evil thing?
18438In what does a man without prayer differ from such a being?
18438Is Suicide a Sin?
18438Is all killing prohibited?
18438Is it because they are too poor?
18438Is it enough to forgive sincerely from the heart?
18438Is it enough, in order to qualify as a moral and responsible agent, to be in a position to respect or to violate the Law?
18438Is it not sufficient to be honest men and women?
18438Many a pure love has degenerated and many a virtue fallen, why?
18438May I perform this act, or must I abstain therefrom?"
18438May it not happen that the very fact of your mentioning what you did is a sufficient mark of credibility for others?
18438Must I love, really love, that low rascal, that cantankerous fellow, that repugnant, repulsive being?
18438Now, what kind of an intelligible thing could sin be in the mind of a blasphemous agnostic?
18438On what authority was it done?
18438One book may not at the same time be three books; but can one divine nature be at one and the same time three divine persons?
18438One may wonder and say:"how can guilt attach to doing good?"
18438Or is there an intention of giving them this signification?
18438Or that proud, overbearing creature who looks down on me and despises me?
18438Or this other who has wronged me so maliciously?
18438SHOULD WE HELP OUR PARENTS?
18438Should We Help Our Parents?
18438Suppose this change can not be justified on Scriptural grounds, what then?
18438The question is: Does the nature of our relations with God demand this sort of worship?
18438To what then shall one have recourse?
18438WHAT is an enemy?
18438WHAT kind of obedience is that which makes religious"unwilling to acknowledge any superior but the Pope?"
18438Was there any clause therein by which you are entitled to change the terms of said contract without consulting the other party interested?
18438We are unable to resolve the difficulties, lay the doubt, and form a sure conscience, what must we do?
18438What about the Sunday instructions and sermons?
18438What about those who call upon, and desire death?
18438What in the world could he do without her?
18438What is a moral agent?
18438What is superstition and what is a superstitious practice?
18438What is there to justify it?
18438What is yielding to any passion but weakness?
18438What kind of nonsense is it that makes her truthful or erring according to one''s fancy and taste?
18438What meaning could it have for any man who professes not to know, or to care, who or what God is?
18438What takes the place of this hate?
18438What then?
18438What therefore is more natural than that some should choose to give themselves up heart, soul and body to the exclusive service of God?
18438What''s the good of it?
18438When parents, unworthy ones, do not appreciate their own dignity, how will others, their children, appreciate it?
18438Where did you get your faith?
18438Where is the advantage in leading such an impossible existence when a person can save his soul without it?
18438Where is there a man, whatever his labor and pay, who could not come to the same conclusion?
18438Where will he ever get this necessary information, if he is not taught?
18438Where will our friend find a loop- hole to escape?
18438Which is the more guilty?
18438Which should have the preference of my assent?
18438Who are bound to serve?
18438Who can unravel the mysteries of religion?
18438Who else can teach him religious truth when he believes that an infallible Church gives him God''s word and interprets it in the true and only sense?
18438Who is to blame but themselves?
18438Who may not consider himself ill- paid?
18438Why are there seen so few children in the fashionable districts of our large cities?
18438Why are there so few large families outside the Irish and Canadian elements?
18438Why did He act thus?
18438Why not give the poor full value for their share of the burden?
18438Why not provide them with intellectual tools that suit their condition, just as the rich are being provided for in the present system?
18438Why not respect the grave?
18438Why should the poor be taxed to educate the rich?
18438Why this blast of sterility with which the land is cursed?
18438Why was it made?
18438Why?
18438Will God do this without being asked?
18438Will they believe it, whether you do or not?
18438Would they, or would they not, consider themselves injured by such revelations?
18438or because they are both?
18438or because they are too rich?
5358And now?
5358And suppose,he asked,"I were unable to come to any conclusion?
5358And what I preach,he asked,"has tended to confirm you in such a mean conception of Christianity?"
5358And yet you still believed that it had a mission?
5358And yet,he persisted,"from the manner in which you spoke at the table--""Oh, do n''t imagine I have n''t thought?
5358And you still intend to go?
5358Are n''t you yourself suggesting,said Mr. Bentley,"the course which will permit you to remain?"
5358Are you Horace Bentley?
5358But is n''t that just where most so- called Christians make their mistake?
5358But is n''t true Christianity incendiary, in your meaning of the word?
5358But why,she cried,"do you insist on what you cell authority?
5358But--?
5358Ca n''t you feel that you are an individual, a personality, a force that might be put to great uses? 5358 Can I do anything for you?"
5358Can you not take from other human beings what you have accepted from this woman who has just left?
5358Eldon Parr''s church?
5358Er-- how long shall you be here, Alison?
5358Have I made you angry?
5358Have you ever definitely and sincerely tried to put what the Church teaches into practice?
5358Have you seen my husband, sir? 5358 How do you do, sir?"
5358How do you mean that he steals money from the girls?
5358I guess you do n''t think much of me, do you?
5358I guess you never knew of his ruining anybody, did you?
5358Is a clergyman ever satisfied?
5358Is there no way but that?
5358Like what?
5358May it not be true, in order to compete with other department stores, that Mr. Ferguson has to pay the same wages?
5358May we not at least remain friends?
5358Of who, then?
5358Oh, God, what would I do if-- if he was n''t there?
5358Orthodox Christianity? 5358 Say, how did you get in here?"
5358Say, what church do you come from?
5358Say, what did you come in here for, honest injun?
5358Say, you''re not a- goin''to preach, are you?
5358So you''re bent upon going-- downhill?
5358The doctor has been here?
5358The kid''s sick-- that''s on the level, is it? 5358 This is a nice place, ai n''t it?"
5358What are you giving me?
5358What can I do?
5358What can you do to stop it?
5358What do you mean by Christianity being incendiary?
5358What kind of friendship would that be? 5358 What other things?"
5358What sort was he?
5358What''s the difference?
5358What''s your hurry?
5358Where are you going?
5358Where is he?
5358Why do I speak of him? 5358 Why do n''t you let him die, you and your church people?"
5358Why do you doubt me?
5358Why do you say that?
5358Why do you say that?
5358Why should n''t ye? 5358 Why should n''t ye?"
5358Why?
5358Will you let me try to help you?
5358Ye wished to see me?
5358You do n''t intend to change this?
5358You were going away? 5358 You''re a minister, ai n''t you?"
5358You''re coming to lunch, Hodder?
5358You?
5358''Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?''
5358And did not parthenogenesis occur in the silk moth?
5358And how-- why?
5358And now?
5358And religion must be idealism-- mustn''t it?
5358And suppose I had followed the advice of my Christian friends and remained here, where they insisted my duty was, what would have happened to me?
5358Bentley?"
5358Ca n''t you see it for yourself?"
5358Come back-- to what?
5358Could he do it or begin it?
5358Could it be done?
5358Could the doctor find time?
5358Did he ring true, and it false?
5358Did this man hide, under his brusqueness and brevity of speech, the fund of wisdom and the wider sympathy and understanding he suspected?
5358Did you ever go down to that store?
5358Did you ever hear of a stock called Consolidated Tractions?"
5358Did you ever see the cheap guys hanging around, and the young swells waiting to get a chance at the girls behind the counters?
5358Do you always preach as earnestly as that?"
5358Do you know how you struck me?
5358Do you know what a floorwalker is?
5358Had he suggested it?
5358Had he the courage, now, to submit the beliefs which had sustained him all these years to Truth''s inexorable inspection?
5358Had he, Hodder, outgrown the dean''s religion, or had it ever been his own?
5358Had they heard him at last?
5358Hodder exclaimed sharply,"why do you say that?
5358How can one be a factor in life unless one represents something which is the fruit of actual, personal experience?
5358How can she reach these wretched people who are the victims of the ruthless individualism and greed of those who control her?
5358How could he attempt to refute it, with honesty?
5358How had it eluded him?
5358How old is the kid?"
5358Human or divine?
5358I guess you know what Galt House is?
5358I''d rather have him die-- d''ye hear?
5358I''m not so bad for an enginoo, am I?"
5358II"Shall we have coffee in the garden?"
5358Love and wisdom were one, then?
5358Man or God?
5358McCrae hesitated, and then demanded abruptly,"Ye''ll not be visiting?"
5358Might it not be merely a figment of the fertile imagination of man?
5358Might it not prove that this woman had let fall into the turbid waters of his soul the drop that was to clear them forever?
5358Might not the inherent goodness of the dean be one thing, and his theology quite another?
5358Mr. Hodder would take them?
5358Now, I put it to you, why do n''t he sink some of that money where it belongs-- in living wages?
5358Now, he asked himself, was it the dean, or the dean''s theology through which his regeneration had come?
5358Oh, ca n''t you see that an authoritative statement is just what an ethical person does n''t want?
5358Parr?"
5358Say, do you wonder I ai n''t got much use for your church people?
5358Say,"he demanded aggressively,"are Parr and Langmaid any better than Beatty, or any of the hold- up men Beatty covers?
5358Should he resign, or go away for a while to some quiet place before he made such a momentous decision?
5358That was all Dicky could think about at first-- would he be well enough to go with Mr. Bentley by Saturday?
5358That will be because you are open- minded, because there is room in you for growth and change?"
5358The brotherhood of man, cooperation-- all that is Socialism, is n''t it?
5358The thought came to him: was he indeed greater, more vital than the religion he professed?
5358Then he heard the specialist say,"Hello, Mr. Hodder, what can I do for you?"
5358Those jays do n''t know anything, do they?
5358Was he still of St. John''s, then?
5358Was there, after all, such a thing as religion?
5358Was this, her art, the true expression of her baffling personality?
5358Were his sympathies with the daughter?
5358What church do you come from anyway?"
5358What doctor have you?"
5358What if he had failed again?
5358What is the matter with the child?"
5358What was it?
5358What was she doing at church?
5358Where now were the thousands of which he had dreamed, and which he was to have brought into the Church?
5358Which, for example, belonged to the lady whose soprano voice pervaded the neighbourhood?
5358Who was she?
5358Who was she?
5358Why did he not tell her she was an egoist?
5358Why did n''t he speak out, defend his faith, denounce her views as prejudiced and false?
5358Why do you suppose so many of''em take to the easy life?
5358Would he ever come back to it?
5358Yes, the doctor was in would he speak to Mr. Hodder, of St. John''s?
5358You did n''t come''round to see me?"
5358You do n''t think the man who owns these flats is in it for charity, do you?
5358You stayed on my account?"
5358You think Eldon Parr''s a big, noble man, do n''t you?
5358You would n''t believe it, would you?"
5358You would n''t believe it, would you?"
5358You''ll excuse me?"
5358You''re proud to run his church, ai n''t you?
5358You, a minister, and me a woman on the town?"
5359''Is this Miss Marcy?''
5359A meaning?
5359Ah, you know him, then?
5359Ai n''t you going to invite me to have some supper?
5359And the woman you speak of was-- rehabilitated?
5359And then-- you''ll be ready for me? 5359 And why do you get indignant now?"
5359And you do not mind the heat?
5359Anywhere?
5359Are these children connected with his church?
5359But is n''t that inconsistent with what you said awhile ago as to a new civilization?
5359But may there not be a meaning in this very desire we have to struggle against the order of things as it appears to us?
5359But-- is it his habit to bring them out here?
5359Could n''t do anything with her, could you? 5359 Did n''t I tell you when you came''round that time that you were n''t like the rest of''em?
5359Did she say-- anything more?
5359Do you remember when I was here that evening about two months ago I said I should like to be your friend? 5359 Do you?"
5359Does he bring them here,--or you?
5359Find ourselves?
5359Have they run out of champagne?
5359Have you always felt like this?
5359Have you been waiting long?
5359Have you ever tried to stand on your feet for nine hours, where you could n''t sit down for a minute? 5359 Have you now?"
5359He expects me?
5359Honest to God?
5359How?
5359In their own languages?
5359Is that on the level?
5359It''s funny how I ran across you again, ai n''t it?
5359Music lessons?
5359Say, did you ever get to a place where you just had to have something happen? 5359 Say, do YOU?"
5359Say, what else is it but a game? 5359 Say-- you''re in trouble yourself, ai n''t you?"
5359So you''ve dropped the preacher business, have you? 5359 Tell me,"he inquired, after a while,"are you not Alison Parr?"
5359Tell me-- what is his life?
5359The game?
5359They did n''t do a thing to this place, did they?
5359Well, Sally, what''s the news?
5359Well, what do you think I did after he''d gone? 5359 Well-- what difference does it make-- now?
5359What business have you got coming in here and straightening up? 5359 What did you do?"
5359What do we mean by human, unless it is the distinguishing mark of something within us that the natural world does n''t possess? 5359 What happened to him-- do you know?
5359What is his number in Dalton Street?
5359What is the trouble, Ryan?
5359What is there in it? 5359 What kind, sir?"
5359What will you have, sir?
5359What''s the matter with it? 5359 What''s the matter with you?"
5359Why are you so surprised that I should possess such modest accomplishments?
5359Why ca n''t you leave me alone?
5359Why do you say that?
5359Why do you say that?
5359Why not? 5359 Why not?"
5359Why should I think it strange?
5359Why?
5359You are not going away soon?
5359You believe that an influence is at work, an influence that impels us against our reason?
5359You have been here before?
5359You have not yet finished the garden?
5359You mean Garvin?
5359You ordered them, did n''t you? 5359 You remember when you dropped in that night, when the kid was sick?"
5359You taught yourself to play?
5359You understood--?
5359Ai n''t you eating anything?"
5359And if so, was it sin or sorrow, or both?
5359And if so, where was the salvation he had preached?
5359And now?
5359And that obscure Event on which he had staked his hopes?
5359And what was to restrain him from reaching out his hand to pluck the fruit which he desired?
5359Bentley?"
5359Bentley?"
5359Bentley?"
5359But here-- have you ever felt,"she demanded,"that you craved a particular locality at a certain time?"
5359But surely you can not remember me, Alison?"
5359But what''s the difference?"
5359Did Mr. Bentley tell you?"
5359Did he now?
5359Do n''t that beat you?"
5359Faith in-- what?
5359Had he, as she expressed the matter,"chucked it"?
5359Had not the tree been crooked from the beginning-- incapable of being straightened?
5359Had she been to church again?
5359Had that personality suddenly lost its power over him?
5359Have you any objections, sir?"
5359How could he say to her that her father had ruined Mr. Bentley?
5359How many billions of blind, struggling creatures clung to them?
5359How was I to know at first that they had you fooled?
5359How was I to know you was n''t in the game?"
5359How was he or any man to estimate, to unravel the justice from the injustice, to pass upon the merit of this woman''s punishment?
5359How was it that, a moment ago, she had appeared to him mysterious, inviting?
5359I do n''t say he did n''t do right from his way of looking at things,--but say, it was n''t exactly Christian, was it?"
5359If the old dogmas were false, why should he regret them?
5359Is it corked?"
5359Is n''t that what we are trying to do?
5359It has a soothing effect, has n''t it?
5359It''s terrible to fall in love, is n''t it?
5359Like what?"
5359On what Authority was it based?
5359Or had it been the knowledge of her own longing, and his desire to assuage it?
5359Say, Mr. Hodder, ai n''t you going to have any sody?"
5359She had been saving herself-- for what?
5359She took one, and put it in her mouth:"Oh,"she said,"how good they were-- Isn''t it strange how a taste brings back events?
5359Should he go in?
5359Tell me,"she asked, choosing another of the beans which he still absently held,"do you get them for these?"
5359That''s a nice kind of business for a church member, ai n''t it?"
5359That''s love, is n''t it?
5359There was good in her still,--but what was"good"?
5359Unless it is the desire and willingness to strive for a larger interest than the individual interest, work and suffer for others?
5359Was it the light of faith?
5359Was it true that they had something in common?
5359Was not the twist ingrained?
5359Was she accusing him of a lack of frankness?
5359Was there in the whole range of life one easy topic which they might share in common?
5359What did you come in here for, anyway?"
5359What do you mean by happiness?
5359What do you think?"
5359What need of religion, of faith in an unseen order when this existed?
5359What should he say, now?
5359What was it about him?
5359What was mind, what spirit?
5359What was the source of that serenity which shone on the face of his friend?
5359What was to become of him, now that the very driving power of life was gone?
5359What would you like?"
5359What''s the matter?"
5359When you could n''t stand bein''lonely night after night, when you went out on the streets and saw everybody on the way to a good time but you?
5359Whence had the argument come?
5359Where had he heard the name?
5359Where now was this pin- point of humanity, in the midst of an appalling spectacle of a grinding, remorseless nature?
5359Where was the Spirit that breathed in it of hope?
5359Where would he go?
5359Who else now was to be considered?
5359Why could she not recall?
5359Why had Mr. Bentley ceased coming to the house?
5359Why not take the world as it appears and live and feel, instead of beating against the currents?"
5359Why should he refuse it to this woman?
5359Why should n''t you?"
5359Why struggle, unless we struggle for something definite?
5359Why try to define it?"
5359Why was it that she, too, to whom speech came so easily, had fallen dumb?
5359Will you try?"
5359You must be on now, ai n''t you?
5359You trust me?"
5359You would n''t believe I kept straight, would you?"
5359You would n''t believe I was good- looking once, would you?"
5359You''ve got a notion that goin''downhill, as I''ve been doing, kills it, have n''t you?
5359an attenuated vapour of the all- pervading substance?
5359do they put up to keep the churches going?
5359to what might he turn his hand, since all were vanity and illusion?
