| 28303 | What do girls do with themselves all the time? |
| 28303 | What is the opera? |
| 28303 | What kind? |
| 28303 | What shall I do without you-- without my blessed son? |
| 28303 | What was that? |
| 28303 | What''s it for-- I mean why is it? |
| 28303 | What''s that about Eames? |
| 28303 | When people buy their way into other people''s houses like that, how do they do it do you suppose? |
| 28303 | Where did they come from? |
| 28303 | Where did they learn how not to behave? |
| 28303 | Where did they learn how not to dress? |
| 28303 | Which one? |
| 28303 | Which was it, a boy or a girl? |

| 28303 | Why does n''t she take something? |
| 28303 | Would you like to sit this dance out on the stairs? |
| 28303 | Yes; but then who''ll be a father to my children? |
| 28303 | You are n''t strict about your mourning, are you? |
| 28303 | You do n''t play? |
| 28303 | You have won? |
| 28303 | You never go home, do you? |
| 28303 | You''d have told a good friend like me; would n''t you? |
| 28303 | You''ve got a new father, have n''t you? |
| 28303 | are you putting one down? |
| 28303 | or do you suppose it is your man? |
| 33623 | A poem? 33623 A what ache?" |
| 33623 | Ah-- just what is this Dreamaline? |
| 33623 | Ah-- what was that? |
| 33623 | Alp? |
| 33623 | And suppose the company failed to dispose of it? |
| 33623 | And the chamois? |
| 33623 | And those that you could n''t sell? |
| 33623 | And was n''t it an animal? |
| 33623 | And were you sea- sick? |
| 33623 | And why? 33623 And would you pay the author the twenty- five dollars?" |
| 33623 | And you confess it, eh? |
| 33623 | And you think the beggar would read it, do you? |
| 33623 | And you? |
| 33623 | And your other book is to be what? |
| 33623 | And your waffle- deck? |
| 33623 | And-- er-- you''d have the ladies whose energies are now devoted towards the clothing of the heathen come here and do the cooking? |
| 33623 | Approve? |
| 33623 | Are n''t you losing control of your tongue? |
| 33623 | Are you laboring under the delusion that you have any control over your tongue? |
| 33623 | B.S.? |
| 33623 | Balloons for what? |
| 33623 | Been reading the dictionary again? |
| 33623 | But do you believe it will develop a mind where there is n''t one? |
| 33623 | But have n''t we digressed a little? 33623 But suppose you had bad luck and took no tricks?" |
| 33623 | But upon what would you live yourself? |
| 33623 | Did they play Alp with you? |
| 33623 | Did you ever learn to draw parallels when you were in school? |
| 33623 | Did you? |
| 33623 | Do n''t you mean that he says he would n''t know what to do if it were not for you? |
| 33623 | Do you find out these mistakes in your practice before or after the death of the patient? |
| 33623 | Do you mean to fasten the impertinence on me? |
| 33623 | Do? 33623 Do? |
| 33623 | Does he know you? |
| 33623 | Good, I hope? |
| 33623 | Have n''t you? |
| 33623 | How about the poets and the humorists? |
| 33623 | How about your couple that prefer to sit out the dance on the stairs? |
| 33623 | How do you score in this game of Alp? |
| 33623 | How will that solve the problem? 33623 How would you show nerve in writing?" |
| 33623 | I beg your pardon? |
| 33623 | I thought you told me you were going off into the country for a rest? |
| 33623 | If so, why was I not with you? |
| 33623 | Is it to be Bloomingdale or a private mad- house you are going to? |
| 33623 | It is n''t a fatal disease, is it? |
| 33623 | It would be instructive, no doubt,said the Bibliomaniac;"but how would it expand society? |
| 33623 | Let me see-- that is how many? |
| 33623 | Let''s give up bickering and turn our attention to-- er-- Social Extension, is it? |
| 33623 | Mr. Whitechoker is talking through his hat is what you mean to say? |
| 33623 | Mr. Whitechoker seems to be aware that a pack holds fifty- two cards-- if he, why not I? |
| 33623 | No? |
| 33623 | On what? |
| 33623 | One extra screw, you say, has saved two days? |
| 33623 | Then why under the canopy do n''t you leave it and go to some other world? |
| 33623 | Then you believe in travel, do you? |
| 33623 | Then you want me to go abroad? |
| 33623 | Then, having attacked this system, what would you have? 33623 Wake me up when he gets to the point, will you, kindly?" |
| 33623 | We have n''t observed the fact,said Mr. Pedagog;"but what of it? |
| 33623 | Well, why is this social contraction going on? |
| 33623 | Welsh- rarebit? |
| 33623 | What do_ you_ know about cards, John? |
| 33623 | What on earth is Alp? |
| 33623 | What would you have such a guild do? |
| 33623 | What''s the matter with balloons? |
| 33623 | What''s the matter with champagne for that? |
| 33623 | What? 33623 What?" |
| 33623 | Where do you suppose he got the idea? |
| 33623 | Who on earth would want to borrow a poem, I''d like to know? |
| 33623 | Who was it said that? |
| 33623 | Why ca n''t you agree? 33623 Why do you persist in your refusal to allow any one to get a favorable impression concerning you? |
| 33623 | Why have wet feet at all if electricity is to be so all- powerful? |
| 33623 | Why not devise an electrical foot- protector and ward off all possibility of damp, cold feet? |
| 33623 | Why should n''t I know about playing- cards? |
| 33623 | Why were n''t you firm with them and say you would n''t, and let that end it? |
| 33623 | Would I? |
| 33623 | You chose your coin? |
| 33623 | You have a personal Shakespeare, have you? |
| 33623 | You look upon your Muse as you would upon your type- writer, eh? |
| 33623 | You would have a loan department, eh? |
| 33623 | You_ have_ a father, have n''t you? 33623 Again, for smaller things, like a dance, Why ca n''t the phonograph be made useful at a ball? 33623 And then what happened? 33623 Can not something be done for her? 33623 Do you find that you have succeeded in your self- imposed mission and made the condition of the civilized less unbearable? |
| 33623 | Do you mean to say that of all that vast audience no one would learn thereby how to behave at a dinner?" |
| 33623 | Have you been courteous to any one?" |
| 33623 | How do you know that what you say is true?" |
| 33623 | How would you show nerve as a beggar? |
| 33623 | I may be a little discouraged for the time being, but what of that? |
| 33623 | Idiot, what would you do? |
| 33623 | Idiot,"said Mr. Pedagog, as the guests gathered about the table,"how goes the noble art of invention with you? |
| 33623 | Idiot?" |
| 33623 | Idiot?" |
| 33623 | If the social mind needs improvement, why not improve it? |
| 33623 | If you are not conscious of so actual a thing as a sigh, how much the more unconscious must you be of something so subtle as motive?" |
| 33623 | May I ask, sir, why you attended that lecture if, as you say, your mind is already sufficiently well furnished?" |
| 33623 | Mr. Whitechoker, will you kindly pass me that steaming ten of diamonds that is wasting its warmth upon the desert air before you?" |
| 33623 | No money in it? |
| 33623 | Now why ca n''t the phonograph come to the rescue? |
| 33623 | Now, why is that irritation there? |
| 33623 | Pedagog?" |
| 33623 | Poet,''Things are seldom what they seem''?" |
| 33623 | Poet? |
| 33623 | Social expansion is not taken up by society-- who dies, I or society? |
| 33623 | This from you?" |
| 33623 | What about?" |
| 33623 | What are we to do then? |
| 33623 | What do you take me for-- an insulated sun- beam? |
| 33623 | What if these lectures do interest those who are comparatively well off? |
| 33623 | What is the use? |
| 33623 | What more is needed for a magazine? |
| 33623 | What right has she to be tired? |
| 33623 | When I arise in the morning and find a button gone, do I make genial remarks about the joys of life? |
| 33623 | When a man comes up to a wayfarer, for instance, and says,''Excuse me, sir, but could you spare a nickel to a hungry man?'' |
| 33623 | Whenever any one asks me that foolish question that is asked so often,''What is the good word?'' |
| 33623 | Whitechoker?" |
| 33623 | Who loses a fine chance, I or the capitalists? |
| 33623 | Why are its ranks not augmented? |
| 33623 | Why ca n''t the phonograph voice do_ his_ duty? |
| 33623 | Why condemn a system because it does not discriminate in the minds selected for improvement?" |
| 33623 | Why do n''t you invent an easy way to make a fortune? |
| 33623 | Why does it not grow? |
| 33623 | Why not say that you''d like to cross the Atlantic on a tight- rope?" |
| 33623 | With such discouragement at home, what hope have I for better fortune abroad?" |
| 33623 | Would you have University Extension stop?" |
| 33623 | Would you have examinations?" |
| 18207 | ''What is the cat?'' 18207 A what?" |
| 18207 | And Burrows? |
| 18207 | And Burrows? |
| 18207 | And how do we show our insanity? |
| 18207 | And is absent- mindedness acquired or inherent? |
| 18207 | And it was stolen by a highly honorable friend, I suppose? |
| 18207 | And was he successful? |
| 18207 | And what did he mean? |
| 18207 | And what is your friend doing now? |
| 18207 | And why, pray? |
| 18207 | And, by the way, why is it that Philadelphia spring chickens do not appear until autumn, do you suppose? 18207 At what period did Bobbo live?" |
| 18207 | But do n''t you think,observed the Bibliomaniac,"that to certain minds the book is more or less unsettling?" |
| 18207 | But is he normally a happy man? |
| 18207 | But what was your opinion of Mrs. Ward''s handling of the subject? 18207 But you could n''t help noticing a similarity of ideas?" |
| 18207 | But you returned it, of course? |
| 18207 | Ca n''t I give you another cup of coffee? |
| 18207 | Ca n''t I secure copies of them for my collection? 18207 Did you ever hear me sing it?" |
| 18207 | Did you ever see a day? |
| 18207 | Did you hear that? |
| 18207 | Did you never confess? |
| 18207 | Did you really have a father? |
| 18207 | Do you happen to know,queried the Bibliomaniac,"the exact date of this rare first edition of which you speak?" |
| 18207 | Do you, really? |
| 18207 | Does he employ a man to run the farm? |
| 18207 | Every Monday? |
| 18207 | For what purpose? |
| 18207 | From which you deduce that ignorance is better than education? |
| 18207 | Have you, indeed? |
| 18207 | How did it happen? |
| 18207 | How did you suppose-- with an oyster- knife? |
| 18207 | How many yards long do you think epigrams should be? |
| 18207 | How''s that? |
| 18207 | I see why you did not stay; for what shall it profit a man to save a patient if practice, like virtue, is to be its own reward? |
| 18207 | I trust you profited by it? |
| 18207 | In literature? |
| 18207 | In the name of Letters, where? |
| 18207 | In wh- a- at? |
| 18207 | In what way does the neck demonstrate that point? |
| 18207 | Indeed? |
| 18207 | It''s something like asserting that a man looks like himself, or, as in the case of a child''s primer--''See the cat?'' |
| 18207 | Know anything about_ Elsmere_? |
| 18207 | Money? 18207 No fundamental principle involved? |

| 18207 | So? |
| 18207 | Tax on what? |
| 18207 | The finest one you''ve what? |
| 18207 | The same box? |
| 18207 | Then how do you reconcile this with the scriptural story of the forbidden fruit? 18207 Then how, may I ask,"said Mr. Whitechoker, severely,"how can you write foreign letters?" |
| 18207 | Then the full text of Mr. Whitechoker''s remark is, I suppose, that''the rainy condition of the atmosphere which confronts us looks like rain?'' |
| 18207 | Then you admit your own superficiality? |
| 18207 | Too forcibly, or how? |
| 18207 | Was it a whole day you saw, or only a half- day? |
| 18207 | We were only saying we thought the-- er-- the-- that the--"What_ are_ the first symptoms of insanity, Doctor? |

| 18207 | What''s his name? |
| 18207 | What''s wrong with it? |
| 18207 | What, if any, of his books would you specially recommend? |
| 18207 | What? |
| 18207 | Where can I find Clink''s books? |
| 18207 | Where will the money and the instructors come from? |
| 18207 | Whose? |

| 18881 | You would start in business for yourself? |
| 18881 | You? 18881 *****You were a little hard on me this morning, were n''t you?" |
| 18881 | A dozen different varieties of portraits of him are printed on postage- stamps as big as circus posters-- and all for what? |
| 18881 | Am I not right, John?" |
| 18881 | And then what did tobacco do for me? |
| 18881 | And then you asked,''Who are the other two?''" |
| 18881 | Are they one there?" |
| 18881 | Are those buckwheat cakes or doilies?" |
| 18881 | Are you going out of business?" |
| 18881 | Because Mrs. Smithers married Mr. Pedagog, do we lose all of our rights in Mr. Pedagog? |
| 18881 | Before the happy event that reduced our number from ten to nine--""We are still ten, are we not?" |
| 18881 | Brief?" |
| 18881 | Brief?" |
| 18881 | Brief?" |
| 18881 | But what prompted nature to raise hob with Westchester County millions of years ago, and to let it sleep like Rip Van Winkle ever since? |
| 18881 | But, as I was saying the other morning----""Do you really remember what you say?" |
| 18881 | By- the- way, did you ever try opium?" |
| 18881 | Can any one here tell me that?" |
| 18881 | Can you still claim that science and the future have nothing to do with each other?" |
| 18881 | Do n''t you, Doctor?" |
| 18881 | Do you happen to be learned enough in piscatorial science to enlighten me on that point, Doctor?" |
| 18881 | Do you mean to tell me that you could say anything reasonable or intelligent to that man?" |
| 18881 | Do you think of starting a cigarette stand?" |
| 18881 | Does your old father smoke?" |
| 18881 | Evolved the theory? |
| 18881 | Has this no bearing on the future? |
| 18881 | Have a cigarette?" |
| 18881 | Have we relinquished that privilege? |
| 18881 | Have you a hatchet handy?" |
| 18881 | He''ll be uncomfortable all day long, and over what? |
| 18881 | Here Mr. Pedagog turned to his wife, and added:"My dear, will you request the cook hereafter to prepare individual cakes for us? |
| 18881 | How did I show it?" |
| 18881 | How-- did-- I-- show-- it? |
| 18881 | I have entered into possession, and while in possession, as a matter of right and not on sufferance, have n''t I the privilege of freedom of speech?" |
| 18881 | If San Francisco, thousands of miles distant, can be brought within range of the ear, why can not 1990 be brought before the mind''s eye? |
| 18881 | If you come down to it, what did he do? |
| 18881 | Is he not now? |
| 18881 | Is the boarding- house, therefore, the result of a degraded, artificial civilization? |
| 18881 | It could n''t possibly cost more than a million of dollars to erect such a hotel, could it?" |
| 18881 | Mrs. Pedagog ought to receive a million----By- the- way, what have we this morning?" |
| 18881 | Now I ask you, as a man and brother, what''s the use of saying anything more about it? |
| 18881 | Now no one at this board disputes that Mr. and Mrs. Pedagog are one, but how about the world? |
| 18881 | Pedagog?" |
| 18881 | Pedagog?" |
| 18881 | Pedagog?" |
| 18881 | Remember that?" |
| 18881 | Suppose we all lived in canal- boats? |
| 18881 | That somebody put the sun out every night, and sneaked back east with it under cover of darkness?" |
| 18881 | Then, finally--""You pretend to be able to penetrate to the finality, do you?" |
| 18881 | We have all the professions represented here but the stage, and why exclude it, granting that no one objects? |
| 18881 | What caused all this change? |
| 18881 | What did you notice?" |
| 18881 | What do we find? |
| 18881 | What else was there to believe? |
| 18881 | What have I said that so offends the linguistic taste of Lindley Murray, Jun.?" |
| 18881 | What of it?" |
| 18881 | What of it?" |
| 18881 | Where are the postage- stamps showing how he looked on the day when Europe first struck his vision? |
| 18881 | Where are the statues of the Indian who discovered Europe? |
| 18881 | Where did you get those crazy ideas?" |
| 18881 | Where is anybody spending a billion of dollars getting up a world''s fair in commemoration of Lo''s discovery of Europe?" |
| 18881 | Why does not the world recognize matrimony?" |
| 18881 | Why should n''t I give them an atmospheric opportunity once in a while?" |
| 18881 | Why should n''t man?" |
| 18881 | Why, man, how could he help evolving the theory? |
| 18881 | Why, then, do you sneer at the ladder upon which you have in a sense climbed to your present happiness? |
| 18881 | Will you kindly let me have another cup?" |
| 18881 | Would not people be deprived of this flimsy pretext for staying at home if their homes could be towed up to the church door? |
| 18881 | XI"I wonder what would have happened if Columbus had not discovered America?" |
| 18881 | XII"I wonder what it costs to run a flat?" |
| 18881 | You are going to be-- to be married?" |
| 18881 | [ Illustration:"DECLINES TO BE RIDDEN"]"And then?" |
| 18881 | [ Illustration:"HAS YOUR FRIEND COMPLETED HIS ARTICLE ON OLD JOKES?"] |
| 18881 | [ Illustration:"SHE COULD NOT POSSIBLY GET ABOARD AGAIN"]"How about safety in a storm?" |
| 18881 | [ Illustration:"THE MOON ITSELF WILL BE USED"]"You would call that an advance in invention, eh?" |
| 18881 | _ Is_ this your table? |
| 18881 | said the Idiot, with well- feigned impatience,"what''s the use of talking that way? |
| 18881 | where?" |
| 35302 | A sort of Keeley Cure for shopping inebriates? |
| 35302 | A sort of Ward MacAllister again? |
| 35302 | A trifle bald- headed, but a true friend when needed, eh? |
| 35302 | A what? |
| 35302 | A what? |
| 35302 | A what? |
| 35302 | Ah-- and where? |
| 35302 | And all those pink satin monkeys bumping their cocoanut- shells together in the green moonlight--"Well, after the first act, what? |
| 35302 | And can he count on that as a permanent business? |
| 35302 | And do you mean to say those people invite you out? |
| 35302 | And for the third? |
| 35302 | And is that worse than Idiocy? |
| 35302 | And the doctor, and the doctor''s gig, and all the appurtenances of his profession-- what becomes of them? |
| 35302 | And what does the Willieboy husband get out of it? |
| 35302 | And what kind of people, pray, live in such places as that? |
| 35302 | And why, pray? |
| 35302 | And yet you do n''t want another? |
| 35302 | And you accept them, eh? |
| 35302 | And you mean to tell us that a plain man like old John De Boodle, of Nevada, is putting out his hard- earned wealth in that way? |
| 35302 | And you reason from this that Sullivan''s''Lost Chord''is a cure for cholera morbus, eh? |
| 35302 | And you think that will be a good thing? |
| 35302 | At such a cost? |
| 35302 | Because there are no more drugs, must the physician walk? |
| 35302 | Been fasting for a week? |
| 35302 | Besides-- what? |
| 35302 | Birds or the fast- flitting dollar? |
| 35302 | But ca n''t you see the beauty in the action of a horse? |
| 35302 | But even then, what? 35302 But how on earth can you train them? |
| 35302 | But what are your politics-- Republican or Democratic? |
| 35302 | But what guarantee have we that fifty years from now some successor to these gentlemen wo n''t propose a one- year course? |
| 35302 | But what have these things to do with the arts? |
| 35302 | But what was that word? |
| 35302 | But your second act? |
| 35302 | Ca n''t you let us have it? |
| 35302 | Can a motorman make a name for himself? |
| 35302 | Did you say you were in college ever? |
| 35302 | Do n''t you wish to see the world getting better and better every day? |
| 35302 | Do the banks really ask for so much security when they make a loan? |
| 35302 | Do they expect children to live in such a place as that? |
| 35302 | Do you mean to say that a Presidential campaign does not keep your nerve- centres in a constant state of pleasurable titillation? 35302 Do you mean to say that society tolerates such a business as that?" |
| 35302 | Do you remember that? |
| 35302 | Educational, eh? |
| 35302 | Fame? 35302 Fifty or a hundred years after you''re dead, eh?" |
| 35302 | For example? |
| 35302 | Had a shock, eh? |
| 35302 | Has the recipe for such an individual at last been discovered? |
| 35302 | How about burglars? |
| 35302 | How can I match when I have n''t anything to match with? |
| 35302 | How is that for a first act? |
| 35302 | How will you have it, in dimes or nickels? |
| 35302 | How? 35302 I do n''t mean the people to act that sort of thing-- but where would you lay your scene?" |
| 35302 | I guess, however, that there are more housemaids earning a living to- day than lawyers-- and, besides-- oh, well, never mind-- What''s the use? 35302 If it was as bad as all that, why did n''t it put you to sleep?" |
| 35302 | If they never see each other, what on earth did they ever get married for? |
| 35302 | If this is all true, why on earth are you proclaiming yourself as a physical wreck? 35302 Is he agin''em?" |
| 35302 | Is n''t my verse good? |
| 35302 | Is that one of the things the union would do? |
| 35302 | Is there such a thing as a Carnegie plaid? |
| 35302 | John,cried Mrs. Pedagog, severely,"did you ever do that?" |
| 35302 | Late hours again? |
| 35302 | May I ask whatever induced you to look for a four- thousand- dollar apartment? |
| 35302 | Me? 35302 Nearly killed you, I suppose, giving you what you deserved?" |
| 35302 | Oh well,said the Doctor,"what of it? |
| 35302 | Oh, well,interposed the Bibliomaniac,"what''s the use of being captious? |
| 35302 | Pretty fine lot of horses, this year? |
| 35302 | Sir,said the Idiot,"if I had done it, would I have had the unblushing effrontery to say, as I just now did say, that its author was a genius?" |
| 35302 | Sonnets, or French forms, or just plain snatches of song? |
| 35302 | Still rambling, eh? |
| 35302 | That he is the owner of a brewery up in Rochester, and backs fifteen saloons and a pool- room in New York? |
| 35302 | The merry ha- ha, eh? 35302 The what?" |
| 35302 | Then what do we get for our Christmas? 35302 Then what in thunder do you go to the Horse Show for?" |
| 35302 | Then what shall it be? |
| 35302 | Then who in thunder pays for the villa and the lot and all those hundred- dollar souvenirs? |
| 35302 | Then you did n''t do it, eh? |
| 35302 | Then,said Mr. Brief, with a smile,"your advice to me is not to despair, eh?" |
| 35302 | Thirty- nine, eh? 35302 Those tired feelings, eh?" |
| 35302 | To sleep? |
| 35302 | Tolerates? |
| 35302 | We ca n''t relieve one another''s necessities unless we know what they are, can we? |
| 35302 | Well, what other collateral have you to offer? |
| 35302 | Well, you did come in for your share of it, did n''t you? |
| 35302 | Well-- what yourself? |
| 35302 | Went to the Horse Show and did n''t see the horses? |
| 35302 | Were n''t there any bedrooms? |
| 35302 | What did I tell you? |
| 35302 | What did you suppose? 35302 What do you think of that?" |
| 35302 | What do you think of that? |
| 35302 | What do you think we should do first? |
| 35302 | What factors in your judgment contribute most to the success of the Horse Show? |
| 35302 | What has it all come to, anyhow-- all this business of man''s trying to better the world? 35302 What is an Ideal Husband, anyhow?" |
| 35302 | What the dickens do you get beyond sheer physical weariness for your pains? |
| 35302 | What was that? |
| 35302 | What would you have us do, move mountains? |
| 35302 | What would you, in your infinite wisdom, suggest? |
| 35302 | What''s rare about it? |
| 35302 | What''s the lay? |
| 35302 | What''s the matter? |
| 35302 | What''s up now? 35302 What?" |
| 35302 | What? |
| 35302 | When did I ever give myself away? |
| 35302 | When did I ever tell you that I belonged to a union? |
| 35302 | When he has the wealth of Monte Cristo at his command? |
| 35302 | Where can you find people like that? |
| 35302 | Where did you get that? |
| 35302 | Which is? |
| 35302 | Who are the De Boodles, and for what do they owe your friend Reginald Squandercash money? |
| 35302 | Who does? |
| 35302 | Who told you the 1903 quarter was rare? |
| 35302 | Who''s trifling with a beautiful poem? |
| 35302 | Why should I? 35302 Why should n''t I? |
| 35302 | Why should n''t I? |
| 35302 | Why should you wish so estimable an individual to be locked up? |
| 35302 | Would n''t that jar you? |
| 35302 | You place the bar and domestic service on the same plane of importance, do you? |
| 35302 | You think that, do you? |
| 35302 | You will? |
| 35302 | _ Now?_said the Poet. |
| 35302 | ''How long is that?'' |
| 35302 | ''No reduction for families?'' |
| 35302 | ''s are to be taught the_ materia musica_ in addition to the_ materia medica_?" |
| 35302 | A finale? |
| 35302 | And what does he get out of it that Adam did n''t get? |
| 35302 | Any results worth speaking of?" |
| 35302 | Art? |
| 35302 | At seven, for instance?" |
| 35302 | But what do you say to my proposition?" |
| 35302 | Can you land''em?'' |
| 35302 | Did they pay off that judgment and relieve him of the odium of having his name chalked up on the public slate? |
| 35302 | Did you?" |
| 35302 | Do they ask security? |
| 35302 | Do you suppose our friend John Pedagog here would be in it with Tommie Goldilocks Van Varick as the Ideal Husband of such a woman? |
| 35302 | Do you suppose the lady looked upon that sumptuous Ruskin with anything but misery in her heart?" |
| 35302 | Drama? |
| 35302 | Eh?" |
| 35302 | Going to invite her to dine with you so as to demonstrate the girl''s incompetence?" |
| 35302 | Here, for instance, is a poet who asks''What are the dearest treasures of spring?'' |
| 35302 | His family wants to get in the swim, and Reggie is turning the trick for them; and, after all, what better way is there for De Boodle to get in? |
| 35302 | How did you come out, Doctor?" |
| 35302 | How long a run?" |
| 35302 | How long have you been in the business?" |
| 35302 | How''s that? |
| 35302 | I belong to a union?" |
| 35302 | I borrowed five hundred dollars once from a bank, and what the deuce do you suppose they did?" |
| 35302 | I do n''t suppose you can give me a hint as to how soon I may expect to meet the lady?" |
| 35302 | I dreamed that you and I together had started a series of establishments all over the country--""To eradicate the shopping evil?" |
| 35302 | I expect to be doing time in some other sphere fifty years from now, so why should I vex my soul about it?" |
| 35302 | Idiot,"put in the Poet, at this point,"who are you going to vote for, anyhow?" |
| 35302 | Idiot,"said Mrs. Pedagog, genially, as the Idiot entered the breakfast- room,"what can I do for you this fine spring morning? |
| 35302 | Idiot,"said the Doctor, amiably,"but would you mind lending me that quarter to pay this messenger? |
| 35302 | Idiot?" |
| 35302 | Idiot?" |
| 35302 | Idiot?" |
| 35302 | Idiot?" |
| 35302 | If he sits up all night over a game of cards, there''s nobody to chide him for doing so, and--""But where does his protection come in? |
| 35302 | If it should turn out to be the answer to''How old is Ann?'' |
| 35302 | If ten commandments make a decalogue, one commandment makes a monologue, does n''t it?" |
| 35302 | If you, like other young men of the age, burn the candle at both ends and in the middle, what can you expect? |
| 35302 | Is that either diverting or elevating or educational or, indeed, anything but deplorable?" |
| 35302 | It does n''t take a very smart doctor these days to produce patients, does it? |
| 35302 | Know what that is?" |
| 35302 | Literature? |
| 35302 | Me?" |
| 35302 | Money? |
| 35302 | Music? |
| 35302 | No mother could watch over her offspring more tenderly than I watch over me, and--""Well, then, what in thunder is the matter with you?" |
| 35302 | Nothing in it? |
| 35302 | Now suppose that highly cultivated inebriate had belonged to a self- respecting union? |
| 35302 | Now, in the writing- lessons, why not adapt your means to your ends? |
| 35302 | Now, where in the name of all that''s lovely should a boy whistle if not in the woods? |
| 35302 | Poet? |
| 35302 | Poet?" |
| 35302 | Pretty fair?" |
| 35302 | Remember that? |
| 35302 | Shall I read it?" |
| 35302 | So why give up hope because you are only forty- nine?" |
| 35302 | Somebody flunked a football team?" |
| 35302 | Tolerate? |
| 35302 | Want to hear it?" |
| 35302 | What am I thinking of, heads or tails?" |
| 35302 | What am I thinking of?" |
| 35302 | What did you think you were to do-- collect the royalties?" |
| 35302 | What do you mean by the music cure?" |
| 35302 | What do you mean?" |
| 35302 | What does he gain by it? |
| 35302 | What is the matter with''em, do you suppose?" |
| 35302 | What is your idea?" |
| 35302 | What is your plan for winning fame?" |
| 35302 | What next?" |
| 35302 | What on earth can be coming over the boys of the land that they no longer avail themselves of the privileges of the fool- tide?" |
| 35302 | What would we think of a football trainer who would try thus to account for the condition of his eleven at the end of a season? |
| 35302 | What''s Hot Air worth on the Exchange to- day?" |
| 35302 | What''s the result? |
| 35302 | What''s the use of playing April- fool jokes on your daddy, when your daddy is playing April- fool jokes on the public all the year round? |
| 35302 | What''s the use of putting a thing like that in a copy- book? |
| 35302 | What''s the use of wasting one''s breath on anything else?" |
| 35302 | What?" |
| 35302 | When asked:''Is it hot?'' |
| 35302 | Where does your inspector come in there? |
| 35302 | Why ca n''t we collaborate and get up a libretto for next season? |
| 35302 | Why did n''t he send the presents he received to others, and so saved his money to pay his debts with?" |
| 35302 | Why do n''t you publish the thing over your own name?" |
| 35302 | Why make a beginner in penmanship write over and over again,''A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush?'' |
| 35302 | Why not adapt the wisdom of the ancients to modern conditions? |
| 35302 | Why not have a shopnasium in which to teach what we might call shopnastics? |
| 35302 | Why not tell him it''s a long well that has no bottom, or a long dog that has no wagging, or a long railroad that has no terminal facilities?" |
| 35302 | Why not? |
| 35302 | Why, how on earth do you train a football team except by practice?" |
| 35302 | Will you have tea or coffee?" |
| 35302 | X THE HOUSEMAID''S UNION"Potatoes, sir?" |
| 35302 | You do n''t yourself believe that last yarn about the Prohibition candidate, do you?" |
| 35302 | You miss the water when the pipes freeze up, do n''t you? |
| 35302 | added the Idiot, enthusiastically,"ca n''t you almost hear that already?" |
| 35302 | said Mr. Brief, as he read them off,"you ca n''t go back on any of''em, can you?" |
| 39682 | A message? |
| 39682 | A new window- washing system? |
| 39682 | A triolet to a ton of coal would be a glorious thing now, would n''t it? |
| 39682 | A what? |
| 39682 | Ai n''t Bridget intelligent, pa? |
| 39682 | Ai n''t it, pa? |
| 39682 | And can you get along without an egg- beater? |
| 39682 | And did he know you? |
| 39682 | And did you ever hear from the man again? |
| 39682 | And did you ever return it? |
| 39682 | And did you? |
| 39682 | And for why? 39682 And how about the egg- nog?" |
| 39682 | And how did he blast the good old saint? |
| 39682 | And how many calls does Mrs. Wilkins owe you? |
| 39682 | And of course you offered to lend Tommy to them? |
| 39682 | And so it is Santa Claus who is the snob, eh, and not Fortune? |
| 39682 | And that brings up the question, why should your conscience be troubled by the insincerity of others? |
| 39682 | And the other eighteen? |
| 39682 | And the people on the wall? 39682 And what did you do?" |
| 39682 | And you find nothing in his favor? |
| 39682 | And you gave up the egg- beater altogether? |
| 39682 | And you parted friends? |
| 39682 | And you pay this man forty dollars for this? |
| 39682 | And you propose to stand all this? |
| 39682 | Are there any amateur burglars? |
| 39682 | As a sensible man, why do n''t you stay here, then? |
| 39682 | As, for instance? |
| 39682 | Been fighting? |
| 39682 | But how? |
| 39682 | But if you make a business of society, why do n''t you carry it to a logical conclusion? 39682 But it''s rather queer, do n''t you think, that she has the children on her books? |
| 39682 | But really,said Mr. Pedagog,"have n''t you raised anything in your garden?" |
| 39682 | But the men, Mrs. Pedagog,said the Idiot,"did you ever think of them?" |
| 39682 | But what does all this prove? |
| 39682 | But where does the money come in? |
| 39682 | But where? |
| 39682 | But you''re not sorry you gave it? |
| 39682 | But you, my dear Idiot, how about your allowance? 39682 But,"said Mr. Pedagog,"if you bid on it consciously where did the mistake come in?" |
| 39682 | By the way, do you know anything about moths? |
| 39682 | Can you get along without Wagner? |
| 39682 | Did you, pa? |
| 39682 | Do n''t you remember that I ignored you utterly? |
| 39682 | Do you keep this interesting specimen of still life all through the year? |
| 39682 | Do you usually serve so small a portion of the product of your garden? |
| 39682 | Does he suspect them of lacking completeness or variety? |
| 39682 | Does n''t Dr. Preachly believe in Santa Claus? 39682 For what-- for whom?" |
| 39682 | Had a good time? |
| 39682 | Had any of those mulled sardines he gives you Sunday nights? |
| 39682 | Have you ever visited Newport? |
| 39682 | Have you suffered? |
| 39682 | He did n''t really, did he, dear? |
| 39682 | He does take after you, does n''t he? |

| 39682 | In the manner of Whitman, perhaps? |
| 39682 | Is asparagus the extent of your gardening? |
| 39682 | Is it a mere meal? 39682 Is it true,"asked Mr. Brief,"that home- raised peas are sweeter than any other?" |
| 39682 | Is that a beech- tree? |
| 39682 | Is that all? |

| 39682 | My dear Idiot,said Mrs. Pedagog,"do you know how I have always thought of you?" |
| 39682 | Not altogether true, is it? |
| 39682 | Not interested? |
| 39682 | Only twice, eh? |
| 39682 | Or is it anybody? 39682 Pa,"said Mollie, holding up the scissors,"can I borrow these?" |
| 39682 | Richard,said Mrs. Dawkins, as they drove home,"did you get a receipt?" |
| 39682 | Say, pa, where was I then? |
| 39682 | Suppose he brings a diamond necklace to the daughter of a Croesus? |
| 39682 | Suppose they do n''t pay? |
| 39682 | Suppose we make the chance? |
| 39682 | That you? 39682 Then I presume if we simply spread the table and let you talk our guests will be satisfied?" |
| 39682 | Then if they are useless, why keep them? |
| 39682 | Then it is selfishness? |
| 39682 | Then what did you say? |
| 39682 | Three? |
| 39682 | To travel, eh? |
| 39682 | Want to play a game with me to- morrow? |
| 39682 | Well, are n''t they? |
| 39682 | Well, she''s outgrown it,said Tommy; and then reverting to his father''s choice of words, he added,"What is dictums, anyhow?" |
| 39682 | Well,smiled the Idiot,"what did you think of it?" |
| 39682 | Well? |
| 39682 | What are the main features of this simple contrivance? |
| 39682 | What are we going to have for dessert? |
| 39682 | What are you going to do with yourself this morning, dear? |

| 39682 | You''ve tried it, have you? |
| 39682 | Ai n''t they fine?" |
| 39682 | And then he added,"Poor Dawkins, who is taking care of him now?" |
| 39682 | And--""And?" |
| 39682 | Any more?" |
| 39682 | As I have told you, that small circumstance Thomas, over which we seem to have no control, got ahead of us--""You was surprised, was n''t you, pa?" |
| 39682 | As for you, my dear Bibliomaniac, why do you collect books?" |
| 39682 | But how are you going to keep the saltpetre out of the peas themselves?" |
| 39682 | But may I ask why you express this preference?" |
| 39682 | Can you imagine the effect of a live wire upon ten loving couples engaged in looking at the moon while sitting on it?" |

| 31143 | He spoke in such a rapid manner that all I could say was"Yes,""No,""Ah,""Eh,""Indeed,""Is it possible?" |
| 31143 | How can any one admit him to have real worth who will not admit another to have any? |
| 31143 | How can any one so insult the Holy, the All- Excellent, our Father, and best friend? |
| 31143 | How could he, when his character for probity was implicated, and his business was likely to suffer? |
| 31143 | How many a pretty gentleman''s knowledge lies all within the verge of the court? |
| 31143 | How shall I meet the Superintendent again? |
| 31143 | How soon might I not fail? |
| 31143 | How would you like another to impose his talk upon you to the extent you impose your talk upon him? |
| 31143 | I have thought, Whence this failing? |
| 31143 | I should like to know what right you have to say it is gratuitous? |
| 31143 | I think so because I have frequently noticed him saying as soon as he has begun,"Have not I told you this before?" |
| 31143 | If I do not argue, who does? |
| 31143 | If he has in him that which appears laudable, how can he expect commendation for it, when he refuses it to others with similar claims? |
| 31143 | If he want knowledge, has he not funds yet untouched, or powers equal to any discovery? |
| 31143 | In fact, was not he_ the_ wise man from the East? |
| 31143 | Is Tittle- Tattle, or Rumour, or Mischief Maker, or Slanderer, or Blabber in this company, who will make capital out of what I say?" |
| 31143 | Is any one the better? |
| 31143 | Is he not rather an ideal being than a_ real_ one? |
| 31143 | Is it a habit to be encouraged or connived at? |
| 31143 | Is it not fine? |
| 31143 | Is it not grand?" |
| 31143 | Is it not his interest to be so? |
| 31143 | Is there a remedy for this talker? |
| 31143 | Is there not too much of this kind of talk in the companies of ministers of religion? |
| 31143 | Is this the proper person to whom I should say it? |
| 31143 | It is not said that moral guilt may be its immediate consequence; but is it a kind of talk altogether innocent? |
| 31143 | Lie to them to conceal myself or my acts? |
| 31143 | Lord, who shall abide in Thy tabernacle? |
| 31143 | Mr. Monopolist, can you refrain a little longer while I say a few more words? |
| 31143 | My reader, do you see and approve the ideal? |
| 31143 | No one could, for who knew whether my integrity might not again fail? |
| 31143 | O do let us pray for him, Mr. Smith, lest the flattering lips prove his ruin?" |
| 31143 | O how shall I, most gracious Lord, This mark of true perfection find? |
| 31143 | Of course he tells as a secret what you tell him as a secret; but if he can not retain it, how can he expect others? |
| 31143 | One could hear the responses at intervals to his statements,--"Oh"--"Ah"--"A pity you are so sick"--"Why, I never"--"Dear me"--"Is it possible?" |
| 31143 | Pepper?" |
| 31143 | Proctor?" |
| 31143 | Round, accompanied by Mrs. Blunt? |
| 31143 | Shall I give offence or deceive by speaking in this way? |
| 31143 | Slack of K---- had said, the answer was,"_ O, Mr. Great I said it, did he?_"and so it passed away as vapour. |
| 31143 | Slack, who gave him one of his egotistic shakes of the hand, and said,"How are you this morning?" |
| 31143 | Smith?" |
| 31143 | Smith?" |
| 31143 | Solomon says of the egotist,"Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? |
| 31143 | The next day I met Mr. Hungerford, and almost the first thing he said was,--"What is the name of that individual who called upon you last night?" |
| 31143 | The swearer may ask,"Where is the evil of an oath when it is used for the support of truth?" |
| 31143 | The time of the"singing of birds"and the efflorescence of trees is very welcome; but who does not equally welcome the time of fruit- bearing also? |
| 31143 | Then the interrogator again inquired,--"How can it be, sir, that you never saw one of them?" |
| 31143 | This is a small affair at best, some may say; but do not"Large streams from little fountains flow-- Tall oaks from little acorns grow?" |
| 31143 | This statement excited curiosity at once, and the question was immediately put,"What does he say?" |
| 31143 | To which Falsehood replies:--"What have I done? |
| 31143 | Turning to our narrator behind him,"What did they make you pay for that umbrella you''ve got in your hand?" |
| 31143 | Was it not a grand piece of eloquence, of originality, and of literary power? |
| 31143 | Was it not magnificent?" |
| 31143 | Was it not rather the benevolence of Mr. Lord and his friend Squance?" |
| 31143 | Was not he a philosopher? |
| 31143 | Watson?" |
| 31143 | Watson?" |
| 31143 | We want the reality, and where can he be found?" |
| 31143 | Webster?" |
| 31143 | What advantage comes of the uncharitable criticisms and judgments which are passed one upon the other? |
| 31143 | What are these but rank pedants? |
| 31143 | What authority has he for his intrusions? |
| 31143 | What did Nehemiah know about Gashmu? |
| 31143 | What did any one know? |
| 31143 | What did those young people care to know about his health, excepting the usual compliments at such times? |
| 31143 | What do you think, Arthur?" |
| 31143 | What eye but such eye would spy out such a quarrel? |
| 31143 | What had he not read? |
| 31143 | What is it?" |
| 31143 | What is it?" |
| 31143 | What is its just measure, its proper object, its ultimate end? |
| 31143 | What is to be done? |
| 31143 | What man ever involved himself in difficulties through silence? |
| 31143 | What say you, my lads, will you grant me this favour?" |
| 31143 | What will be the consequence to the absent of my making this statement concerning them? |
| 31143 | Where had he not been? |
| 31143 | Where is boasting then? |
| 31143 | Where is he to be found? |
| 31143 | Where is the salve that would give him this power of vision? |
| 31143 | Where was my honour_ then_--my manliness? |
| 31143 | Who are you, to be so bold? |
| 31143 | Who but a Cowper could have written that admirable extract just given to us by Mr. Burr, and which was read with such elegance?" |
| 31143 | Who is at the head of it?" |
| 31143 | Who is so wise as he? |
| 31143 | Who likes to have himself, in his motives and deeds, put through the crucible of his narrow, prickly, stingy soul? |
| 31143 | Who likes to have his motives called in question? |
| 31143 | Who thinks another a fool because he does not talk? |
| 31143 | Why does he receive the secret with the strong promise,"I will tell no one, upon my honour,"if he can not retain it in his own bosom? |
| 31143 | Why should I shrink before my fellows for anything I had done? |
| 31143 | Why should feeling ever speak When thou canst breathe her soul so well? |
| 31143 | Why so?" |
| 31143 | Will you walk in?" |
| 31143 | Will you, Squire, give me the pleasure and allow me the happiness of introducing and bringing to your acquaintance my friend Mr. Pope? |
| 31143 | Would not old and young more readily have been corrected and improved?" |
| 31143 | Would you believe it, sir, that I stood first in the last grand oratorio which took place in the great metropolis? |
| 31143 | Would you believe me, sir, that I have the entire list of the classics in my library?" |
| 31143 | Yet where would be the harm in wishing him in heaven, where none shall ever say they are sick?" |
| 31143 | You affirm it to be gratuitous, do you? |
| 31143 | _ Doth Job serve God for nought?_"So said the father of detractors more than two thousand years ago. |
| 31143 | _ THE EGOTIST._"What cracker is this same, that deafs our ears With this abundance of superfluous breath?" |
| 31143 | a physician? |
| 31143 | a theologian? |
| 31143 | a vice which men have invented for themselves without prospect of pleasure or profit, and to which there is no imaginable temptation in nature? |
| 31143 | an historian? |
| 31143 | and do you mean to insult me by saying it is only gratuitous?" |
| 31143 | and were you not pleased to see him?" |
| 31143 | and what have you in that bundle?" |
| 31143 | and when he died, would not wisdom die with him? |
| 31143 | and where the trust reposed in me? |
| 31143 | cholery? |
| 31143 | for who should be ushered into the room by the servant but an unexpected caller? |
| 31143 | has he been heroic in an act of mercy? |
| 31143 | has he given a contribution to an object of beneficence? |
| 31143 | has he made a good bargain in business? |
| 31143 | has he performed some feat of gymnastics? |
| 31143 | how do you do, Mr. Hill? |
| 31143 | is n''t there enough to excite me? |
| 31143 | mother, have n''t I a right to ask my sister all the questions I please? |
| 31143 | never speak one evil word, Or rash, or idle, or unkind? |
| 31143 | or who knows whether he is guilty of it or not? |
| 31143 | replied Jones, with a dogmatic sneer;"how can I forget what he never had, and underrate powers which he never possessed? |
| 31143 | said one who was listening;"and do you intend that as a caution to us against seeking happiness in the same way?" |
| 31143 | said the monk,"so you have been a_ liar_ too have you?" |
| 31143 | what hast thou done To compare, in thy tumid pride, with me? |
| 31143 | what is the appearance of anything? |
| 31143 | what''s to pay?" |
| 31143 | with another, for tying his new shoes with old ribbons? |
| 43025 | ''Damper?'' |
| 43025 | ''Woltor''or''Stoltor''? |
| 43025 | --Miracle? |
| 43025 | A flirtation? |
| 43025 | A story? |
| 43025 | A--''quitter''? |
| 43025 | Allan John,she asked,"do you suppose that you will ever marry again?" |
| 43025 | Am I a-- King,he began to intone,"that I should call my own, this--?" |
| 43025 | Amusing to talk to? |
| 43025 | An oblivion? |
| 43025 | And for Ann Woltor? |
| 43025 | And how did you get on with Allan John? |
| 43025 | And just what did Dr. Brawne-- tell_ you_? |
| 43025 | And just what part,drawled my Husband,"is this New Zealand paragon, Miss Stoltor, to play in our Rainy Week?" |
| 43025 | And the permanent wave? |
| 43025 | And to Dr. Brawne, too? 43025 And where are you going to be in May?" |
| 43025 | And would I please tell her-- how to spell''oceanic''? |
| 43025 | And you''d have thought somehow that the picture would be funny, would n''t you? 43025 And you, Mrs. Delville, of course?" |
| 43025 | Animals? |
| 43025 | Ann Woltor-- crying? |
| 43025 | Ann-- what? |
| 43025 | Any recent calamity? 43025 Are you willing that Allan John should go to the cave to- day?" |
| 43025 | At the big table in the upper hall? 43025 Bene-- benedictine?" |
| 43025 | Bungalow? |
| 43025 | But however in the world did you happen to have the whistle under your pillow? |
| 43025 | But really, George,he himself hastened to cut in,"if you could come to us the second week in May----""May?" |
| 43025 | But what I really called up to say,I hastened to confide,"is that she fainted this afternoon, and----""Yes?" |
| 43025 | But where in the world should we find a really ingenuous Ingà © nue? |
| 43025 | But will Mrs. Brenswick go? |
| 43025 | But, May Girl? |
| 43025 | By the way, where is Mr. Rollins this morning? |
| 43025 | Coach me up a bit? |
| 43025 | Crape-- on-- my-- sleeve? |
| 43025 | Cry one day and laugh another, is it? |
| 43025 | Did Ann Woltor come back? |
| 43025 | Did you think I was talking just weather with your husband all that first harrowing day and evening? 43025 Do I hear my name bandied by festive voices?" |
| 43025 | Do n''t you think that-- p''raps-- somebody ought to go and find him? |
| 43025 | Do n''t you think you''re just a bit behind the times in your interpretation of the phrase''artistic temperament''? |
| 43025 | Do what? |
| 43025 | Do you feel that way about him? 43025 Do you really want to go?" |
| 43025 | Do you think it will clear to- day? |
| 43025 | Doctor Brawne? 43025 Does he kiss my hand?" |
| 43025 | Dr.--Dr. Brawne will, of course, make you a very distinguished husband,I stammered,"but are you sure you love him?" |
| 43025 | Eh? 43025 Eh? |
| 43025 | Eh? 43025 Eh?" |
| 43025 | Everything else all right? |
| 43025 | Excuse me,he floundered,"but I have to catch a train--_please_ may I have my book?" |
| 43025 | Fifteen years ago? |
| 43025 | For Heaven''s sake,called my own husband through the half open doorway,"what''s all this pow- wow about?" |
| 43025 | Here? |
| 43025 | How did you break your tooth? |
| 43025 | How do we know young Kennilworth''s got a future? |
| 43025 | How do you know that this Ann Woltor has got a past? |
| 43025 | How do you know? |
| 43025 | How do you- people know but what I_ am_ a burglar? |
| 43025 | How-- how old is this-- this Woltor person? |
| 43025 | I-- I was in some sort of a-- a crowd? |
| 43025 | I? |
| 43025 | I? |
| 43025 | If it was n''t for Miss Davies here-- what would you be doing to- day? |
| 43025 | If it''s conducted, oh, very-- very-- very properly? |
| 43025 | In all this storm f Why, what if the May Girl had refused to-- to----? |
| 43025 | In-- bronze? |
| 43025 | Invited whom? |
| 43025 | Is it a front tooth? |
| 43025 | Is it your own? |
| 43025 | Is it? |
| 43025 | Is it? |
| 43025 | Is n''t it the limit? 43025 Is she still there?" |
| 43025 | Is that the stuff that smells the way stars would taste if you ate them raw? |
| 43025 | Is this Mrs. Jack Delville? |
| 43025 | Is-- everybody-- in the world going to die? |
| 43025 | It does n''t quite make sense when you say it out loud, does it? |
| 43025 | Jack,I asked quite abruptly,"Who is Ann Woltor?" |
| 43025 | Just how----? |
| 43025 | Kennilworth? |
| 43025 | Kittens? |
| 43025 | M- marked? |
| 43025 | Mad? |
| 43025 | My last bottle--? |
| 43025 | My name? |
| 43025 | Mysterious? |
| 43025 | N- o? |
| 43025 | Never-- left the place? |
| 43025 | Night- lunch carts? |
| 43025 | No- o? |
| 43025 | Not on the one engagement day of his life? 43025 Not-- going?" |
| 43025 | Now that makes how many of us? |
| 43025 | Now, Miss Davies,he insisted,"more than anything else in the world to- day what would you like to do?" |
| 43025 | Now, how do you know but what_ we_ are burglars? 43025 Oh, is this where you bad people are?" |
| 43025 | Oh, is this where you live? |
| 43025 | Oh, it is n''t Good Night, dear, is it? |
| 43025 | Oh, just wait till you see him in bronze? |
| 43025 | Oh, lovely-- what is it about? |
| 43025 | Oh, not May? |
| 43025 | Oh, not than''anything''? |
| 43025 | Oh, not to- day-- surely? |
| 43025 | Oh, you really mean kittens? 43025 On w- what?" |
| 43025 | Only three? |
| 43025 | Or----? |
| 43025 | Peeved is it because he thought Miss Davies----? |
| 43025 | Perhaps to- morrow-- if it is n''t too far-- and we ever could find it again----"But why such haste about the''Toy Village''? |
| 43025 | Pleasant? |
| 43025 | Rollins?--Rollins? |
| 43025 | Romance? |
| 43025 | Round and round the country? |
| 43025 | Round-- what? |
| 43025 | Saw what? |
| 43025 | Second week? 43025 Sew?" |
| 43025 | Shall I-- shall I call the others? |
| 43025 | Suppose it had been true? |
| 43025 | The most delicate part of the cast? 43025 The ocean?" |
| 43025 | The road-- doesn''t go any farther? |
| 43025 | The six- thirty train? 43025 The''Main Battery,''"puzzled the Bridegroom,"being----?" |
| 43025 | Then I really may consider us-- formally engaged? |
| 43025 | Then you really would like to go? |
| 43025 | There''s no other stopping place you mean-- just a little bit farther along? 43025 This village of yours,"he frowned,"I-- I hope it''s going to have good government?" |
| 43025 | Three generations of plowing, is n''t it, to raise one artist? 43025 Tired?" |
| 43025 | To the what? |
| 43025 | To whom? |
| 43025 | To whom? |
| 43025 | To- day, I mean? 43025 To- morrow?" |
| 43025 | To- night? |
| 43025 | To-- do-- the same-- for you? |
| 43025 | Turkish? |
| 43025 | Unfathomable? 43025 Up- stairs, you mean, do n''t you?" |
| 43025 | W- w- what? |
| 43025 | W-- What? |
| 43025 | Wardrobe mistress? |
| 43025 | Was it there-- yesterday? |
| 43025 | Was n''t Allan John even listening? |
| 43025 | Well, I certainly am rattled? |
| 43025 | Well-- it_ was_ in the mind of God, was n''t it? |
| 43025 | What do you know of the natural male''instinct''? |
| 43025 | What else have I got? |
| 43025 | What if I have to die some day?--And_ this_ day was wasted in rain? |
| 43025 | What is it? |
| 43025 | What is the matter with everybody? |
| 43025 | What seems to be the matter? |
| 43025 | What shall we do,fretted my Husband,"if this perfection lasts?" |
| 43025 | What the deuce do you expect Keets to get out of it? |
| 43025 | What the deuce is the matter with everybody? |
| 43025 | What was that? |
| 43025 | What''s Doctor Brawne to you? |
| 43025 | What''s the grouch? |
| 43025 | What''s your Pom''s name? 43025 What, do n''t you want to hear the story?" |
| 43025 | What? |
| 43025 | What? |
| 43025 | What? |
| 43025 | Whatever in the world were you thinking of? |
| 43025 | When did you get back? |
| 43025 | When she tried to bolt so? 43025 Where did you get the suit?" |
| 43025 | Where do you suppose he''s gone to? |
| 43025 | Where is Allan John? |
| 43025 | Where? |
| 43025 | Who did that? |
| 43025 | Who said Paul? |
| 43025 | Who said''Stoltor''? |
| 43025 | Who started this conversation, anyway? |
| 43025 | Who would n''t? |
| 43025 | Who''s she? |
| 43025 | Who?--the car? |
| 43025 | Why did n''t you speak to my Husband? |
| 43025 | Why not the dresses? 43025 Why, what''s the matter with trying Allan John?" |
| 43025 | Why, where in Creation were you? |
| 43025 | Why, you did n''t suppose for a minute, did you,persisted young Kennilworth tormentingly,"that there was any special fun about being engaged? |
| 43025 | Why-- do you ask-- that? |
| 43025 | Why? |
| 43025 | Without anybody noticing? |
| 43025 | Women do care so much, do n''t they? |
| 43025 | Wondering what? |
| 43025 | Worrying? |
| 43025 | Yes, but Ferry? |
| 43025 | Yes, but the discovery? |
| 43025 | Yes, but why? |
| 43025 | Yes, was n''t it? |
| 43025 | Yes, wo n''t it be interesting,whispered the Bride to George Keets,"to see what Mr. Kennilworth will really do? |
| 43025 | Yes, would n''t it be interesting,glowed Ann Woltor quite unexpectedly,"if he''d made her something really wonderful? |
| 43025 | Yes? 43025 Yes?" |
| 43025 | Yes? |
| 43025 | Yes? |
| 43025 | Yet there''s something about it that worries you? |
| 43025 | You concede no personal reticence in the world? |
| 43025 | You do n''t think for a moment that anybody would be rash enough to try and make the trip in the big dory? |
| 43025 | You like this Ann Woltor, do n''t you? |
| 43025 | You really believe then--he quickened,"that there is''honor among thieves''?" |
| 43025 | You-- told-- Dr. Brawne that-- I fainted? |
| 43025 | You? 43025 You?" |
| 43025 | You? |
| 43025 | Your book? |
| 43025 | Your mother is-- not living? |
| 43025 | Your own discovery?--Just when? |
| 43025 | Your-- book? 43025 _ Bronze_?" |
| 43025 | _ Pleasant_? |
| 43025 | _ What_? |
| 43025 | _ What_? |
| 43025 | An elopement, you mean?" |
| 43025 | And a mystery at a houseparty? |
| 43025 | And acting half scared to death? |
| 43025 | And all over the rocks? |
| 43025 | And from Bishop''s Wife to Bishop''s Wife? |
| 43025 | And out on the beach? |
| 43025 | And the fishes? |
| 43025 | And then afterward-- when I saw that she really could n''t stop----""Crying?" |
| 43025 | And two breakfasts in succession? |
| 43025 | And were they open mornings? |
| 43025 | And when the officer arrived, he said,''I hate like the dickens to run this gentleman in, but if there''s nobody to look after him--?'' |
| 43025 | Any special threat of impending illness?" |
| 43025 | Are n''t you ever coming?" |
| 43025 | Are you sure-- are you quite sure, I mean, that he has n''t been sitting round with wet feet all the evening? |
| 43025 | At ten o''clock in the morning? |
| 43025 | Brawne-- tall?" |
| 43025 | Brawne?" |
| 43025 | Brawne?" |
| 43025 | Breakfast? |
| 43025 | But I?" |
| 43025 | But a brand new Ingà © nue--? |
| 43025 | But a mock engagement?" |
| 43025 | But a question of the May Girl herself? |
| 43025 | But after all it was those extraordinarily human shoulders of his that were really doing the carrying? |
| 43025 | But can you reproduce liquids with solids? |
| 43025 | But if you do n''t mind things being a bit old- timey,--this ring of my great uncle Aberner''s-- if we tie it on-- perhaps?" |
| 43025 | But men? |
| 43025 | But to be with one''s Lover and have the day prove dull? |
| 43025 | But unswallowed? |
| 43025 | But what page is long enough to record the wishes of Eighteen? |
| 43025 | But where_ is_ he?" |
| 43025 | But wherever in the world are you? |
| 43025 | But whether that drama be farce or fury--? |
| 43025 | But why in the world should she want to bolt?" |
| 43025 | Ca n''t anybody see-- anything?" |
| 43025 | Ca n''t you see I want to work? |
| 43025 | Ca n''t you see that you''ve started the whole thing entirely wrong?" |
| 43025 | Clap one''s hands? |
| 43025 | Clothes? |
| 43025 | Could you come then, do you think? |
| 43025 | Could you put the ocean into bronze, I mean?" |

| 43025 | How do you explain it? |
| 43025 | How----? |
| 43025 | I explained,"How would you get there? |
| 43025 | I thought the surf would smash us, but----""But what was the''argument''?" |
| 43025 | If God in the terrible uncertainty of Him should force even one dull day into the miracle of their life together----? |
| 43025 | In the bungalow? |
| 43025 | In the car? |
| 43025 | Is-- is it going to clear up?" |
| 43025 | It rained last year, did n''t it? |
| 43025 | It seemed best to you, without consultation, without argument, to act so suddenly in the matter, and so-- so all alone?" |
| 43025 | It''s the first time, is n''t it?" |
| 43025 | Jolly? |
| 43025 | No advice? |
| 43025 | No conference on literature,--music,--painting? |
| 43025 | No dully congenial convocation of in- bred relatives? |
| 43025 | No lazy, purring, reunion of old friends this_ Rainy Week_ of ours, you understand? |
| 43025 | No suggestions, you observe? |

| 43025 | Nor of billiard shots? |
| 43025 | Nose- Gay? |
| 43025 | Not both of you, I mean?" |
| 43025 | Not_ really_?" |

| 43025 | Now up- stairs-- all day yesterday-- wouldn''t it----?" |
| 43025 | Oh, surely-- surely,"she coaxed,"even if it is a work- room, there could n''t be any real sin in just prying a little?" |
| 43025 | On a holiday?" |
| 43025 | One, on one side of the table-- and one-- the other? |
| 43025 | One-- two-- three-- four-- five-- six-- Seven--"he repeated as though to be perfectly sure,"_ seven_? |
| 43025 | Or Paul Brenswick''s candle thrust into a copperas- tinted knot of water- logged cedar? |
| 43025 | Or bolt from the room? |
| 43025 | Or should one cry? |

| 43025 | Should one laugh? |
| 43025 | Skip- a- bout? |
| 43025 | Something that would last, I mean, after the game was over? |
| 43025 | Spat like venom from Bishop to Bishop? |
| 43025 | Swinging back to the breakfast- room I heard the clock strike ten-- only ten? |
| 43025 | The flash of a blue- bird? |
| 43025 | The impeccable Mr. George Keets there at your right,--no more, no less, than exactly what he looks,--an almost perfect replica of a stage''Raffles''?" |
| 43025 | The most difficult? |
| 43025 | The most hazardous? |
| 43025 | The problem of the horizon sense? |
| 43025 | The-- engagement?" |
| 43025 | This Dr. Brawne of yours?--Is he old or young? |
| 43025 | This is the end,--the last house,--the----?" |
| 43025 | This whole house a Den of Thieves? |
| 43025 | Was it because she knew that you knew Hal Ferry? |
| 43025 | Way, way out to the farthest point? |
| 43025 | Were there any Movie Palaces near? |
| 43025 | What about drainage? |
| 43025 | What about the horizon sense?" |
| 43025 | What about the-- last wave? |
| 43025 | What bride''s are not? |
| 43025 | What had Ann Woltor left there the day before that made her specially anxious to get there first? |
| 43025 | What is it? |
| 43025 | What''s that?" |
| 43025 | What''s that?" |
| 43025 | What_ were_ you doing?" |
| 43025 | Where you were working yesterday? |

| 43025 | Which is it-- really?" |
| 43025 | Who can say? |
| 43025 | Who was there left for your elbow to nudge? |
| 43025 | Who yet shall prove the hero? |
| 43025 | Who''s speaking?" |
| 43025 | Who--? |
| 43025 | Why did he think that Ann Woltor would be the one to get there first? |
| 43025 | Why there''s Jerry and Paul and Richard and-- and----""Yes, but your father and mother?" |
| 43025 | Why-- Why, what the----?" |
| 43025 | Will I ever forget the fragrance of this week-- while Time lasts?" |
| 43025 | With a Bridegroom who after all was still more or less of a strange Bridegroom? |
| 43025 | With the aid of one or two Hare''s Ears which I''m almost sure I''ve seen in the specimen cabinet----""''Hare''s Ears''?" |
| 43025 | You did n''t think for a moment, I mean, that you were really going to have any sort of good time to- day? |
| 43025 | You''ll write to her immediately, wo n''t you?" |
| 43025 | _ What_?" |
