| 19848 | And whose voices never fail among the disputants? |
| 19848 | And, granted its value as a social structure, is it, even then, to be worth while? |
| 19848 | Answering the question,"Whither are we tending?" |
| 19848 | Are the cares and duties of the mother, her travail and her love, commodities to be exchanged for bread? |
| 19848 | Are we willing to consider motherhood as a business, a form of commercial exchange? |
| 19848 | Are we willing to hold this ground, even in theory? |
| 19848 | Are you aware that if my milk is analyzed it will be found to contain less food for the baby with more bulk than if I were to do without the alcohol? |
| 19848 | At what stage and under what influences did the child that is born a girl become female? |
| 19848 | But are we to live for it? |
| 19848 | But how many men would be willing to marry on the conditions with which marriage is offered to a woman? |
| 19848 | But how, then, is the division of labour necessary for society to be effected, the reader may ask? |
| 19848 | But if he is going to say bitter things to you, will the facility of his diction make them less bitter? |
| 19848 | But is such a change-- or any change at all of that kind-- to be desired? |
| 19848 | But now what do we owe to her in the matter of providing the right kind of intellectual, moral, spiritual, psychical environment? |
| 19848 | But now, what as to the comparative strength of this instinct in the two sexes? |
| 19848 | But the spiritual attitude revealed in the question,"Do they deserve it?" |
| 19848 | But what is the value of these precautions if we relax our care as to what enters their minds? |
| 19848 | But what of the individual in a country where there are thirteen hundred thousand adult women in excess of men, which is the case of Great Britain? |
| 19848 | Can we not find a term which shall express this truth, shall be inoffensive and so doubly suitable for the purposes of our cause? |
| 19848 | Can we, as human beings, regard a human society as admirable because it is successful, stable, numerous? |
| 19848 | Causes must be judged by their merits, not by their worst advocates, or where are the chances of religion or patriotism or decency? |
| 19848 | Do not their mothers blush for such; to have travailed so much, and to have achieved so little? |
| 19848 | For what is this sexual instinct? |
| 19848 | For what, if it comes to that, does a man choose? |
| 19848 | Have not women even a greater regard for appearances than men? |
| 19848 | How can we fail to do so? |
| 19848 | How could any nice- minded teacher care to put such ideas into a girl''s head? |
| 19848 | How then should we proceed? |
| 19848 | In providing the environment-- from its mother''s milk to moral maxims-- for our child, what do we seek? |
| 19848 | Is it likely to be as good for us as for the bee- hive? |
| 19848 | Is it that a girl has none of the promptings to vociferous play by which boys are impelled? |
| 19848 | Is it that each may be trusted by self- instruction to fit himself, or herself, for the office of parent? |
| 19848 | Is it that the constitution of a girl differs so entirely from that of a boy as not to need these active exercises? |
| 19848 | Is it that the discharge of it is but a remote contingency? |
| 19848 | Is it that the discharge of it is easy? |
| 19848 | Is it these women, already predestined for something other than distinctive womanhood, that offer themselves for"higher education"? |
| 19848 | Is there no moral here?" |
| 19848 | It avoids the tabooed adjective, and if it fails to allude at all to the fact of sex, who needs reminding thereof? |
| 19848 | It is a common thing to laugh at these aberrations-- thoughtlessly, may we not say? |
| 19848 | It may be replied,"Is not the labourer worthy of his hire?" |
| 19848 | Let either sex try to run the earth alone till Halley''s comet returns, and what would be left for it to see? |
| 19848 | None will dare dispute these assertions, yet what do we see at the present time? |
| 19848 | Now, what are we to say of the_ object_ of education? |
| 19848 | Of course, such a question as this may be answered in some such terms as those of the further question, What has posterity done for us? |
| 19848 | On what grounds is the woman question fought, and by what kind of disputants? |
| 19848 | So much having been said, what can one suggest in the direction of remedy? |
| 19848 | That he knows the ways of the world may impress you, but does he know them to admire them? |
| 19848 | The forces that have erected us from the worm, are they necessarily exhausted or exhaustible? |
| 19848 | The question is not how much bulk is there, but what does the bulk consist of? |
| 19848 | The question remains, how is this to be done, and whence is the money to be obtained? |
| 19848 | The vital thing for you is, what are the uses to which he puts his knowledge and capacities? |
| 19848 | This will be indignantly repudiated by a stern school of thought, but what if it applies, everywhere, always and above all, to children? |
| 19848 | To ask, What has posterity done for us? |
| 19848 | To what extent can we control the determination of sex? |
| 19848 | What does reward mean? |

| 19848 | What is the virtue in cleverness coupled with, for instance, a malicious tongue? |
| 19848 | What one is, why may not millions be? |
| 19848 | What promise, then, have we that things as they will be are worth working for? |
| 19848 | What would be its effect on productivity? |
| 19848 | What, in a word, are we to say of such cases as these? |
| 19848 | What, then, is it in our power to do; and how are we to do it? |
| 19848 | What, then, is the record? |
| 19848 | Whatever the answer to the crudely- stated question,"Should Wives have Wages?" |
| 19848 | Where is the woman, recognizable as such, who will question that the brother of Dorothy Wordsworth was right? |
| 19848 | Who rewards the sun, or the rain, or the oak, or the tigress? |
| 19848 | Who will dare to set limits to the promise of Nature''s womb? |
| 19848 | Who will say a good word for the substance which makes them by tens of thousands in England and Wales alone every year? |
| 19848 | Why are the numbers of the sexes approximately so equal? |
| 19848 | Why this distinction? |
| 19848 | Will it make a better race? |
| 19848 | Will the consequence be that more of the better stocks,_ of both sexes_, contribute to the composition of future generations? |
| 19848 | Yet it is not his clothes that you will have to live with, but himself; and the question is what do his clothes mean? |
| 19848 | and to what sort of women are you relegating it by default? |
| 19848 | and will there not consequently arise in them even a stronger check to whatever is rough or boisterous? |
| 19848 | should be looked upon as if one should say, What have my children done for me? |
| 19560 | Can we talk only in generalities? |
| 19560 | How can we find a test of a good, sound constitution? |
| 19560 | How dare you not do it? 19560 Of these( 287),"he continues,"26 were in''Who''s Who in America?'' |

| 19560 | But can any philosophy dispense with eugenics? |
| 19560 | But how could this mark have been transmitted? |
| 19560 | But what are these social differences, which it is the custom to dismiss in such a light- hearted way? |
| 19560 | But what shall we say of the battle of Leipsic? |
| 19560 | But, it may be objected, is not this change merely"the survival of the fittest?" |
| 19560 | But, some one may protest, are we not shattering the very edifice of which we are professed defenders, in thus denying the force of heredity? |
| 19560 | Can this be regarded as the inheritance of a long continued process of use and disuse? |
| 19560 | Did a notch in the ear run through a pedigree? |
| 19560 | Did he keep record of his bank balance in his head instead of on paper? |
| 19560 | Did he revel in statistics? |
| 19560 | Did not the best go in general; the misfits, the defectives, stay behind to propagate? |
| 19560 | Did this change of the environment alter their inborn character? |
| 19560 | Do we adopt the"better dead"gospel? |
| 19560 | Do we leave them all to natural selection? |
| 19560 | Do we then discourage all attempts to save the babies? |
| 19560 | Does it ever find these favorable circumstances? |
| 19560 | Does this prove that the myopia is rather due to heredity? |
| 19560 | First, does sexual immorality increase or decrease the marriage rate of the offenders? |
| 19560 | Has she not herself demonstrated it? |
| 19560 | Has the parent cell then died? |
| 19560 | Have they undergone a progressive physical degeneracy, as should be expected? |
| 19560 | Here is equality in training; does it lead to uniform results? |
| 19560 | How Do You Clasp Your Hands? |
| 19560 | How are such sequences to be found in heredity, if they do not appear when a parent and his offspring are examined? |
| 19560 | How can it get them? |
| 19560 | How can one speak of a unit character, when the"unit"has an infinite number of values? |
| 19560 | How is it, then, that training increases a man''s efficiency? |
| 19560 | How were these cases of feeble- mindedness defined? |
| 19560 | How, then, has it come to be such an integral part of socialism? |
| 19560 | If a boy has a drunken father or foolish mother, does it not suggest that there is something wrong with his pedigree? |
| 19560 | If it is proved in other animals, can it be considered wholly impossible in man? |
| 19560 | If one is going to credit consanguineous marriage with these evil results, what can one say when evil results fail to follow? |
| 19560 | If so, how? |
| 19560 | If they exist, why do not ordinary brothers become as much alike as identical twins? |
| 19560 | In order to test this possibility, one must inquire:( 1) What is genealogy? |
| 19560 | In passing judgment on a proposed marriage, therefore, the vital question is not,"Are they related by blood?" |
| 19560 | In what way different? |
| 19560 | Is a_ continuous quantity_ a_ unit_? |
| 19560 | Is is not perhaps a social adaptation with survival value? |
| 19560 | Is it a matter of environment?--are open- air schools, sanitary tenements, proper hygiene, the kind of measures that will change this condition? |
| 19560 | Is it desired to eliminate feeble- mindedness? |
| 19560 | Is it necessary, then, to retain sexual immorality in order to achieve race progress? |
| 19560 | Is it not a loss to Christians that they have so much less of this feeling than the Chinese? |
| 19560 | Is it not fair, then, to assume that this relative''s greater endowment in the latter case is due to heredity? |
| 19560 | Is it practicable to direct genealogy on this slightly different line? |
| 19560 | Is the American stock more or less variable? |
| 19560 | Is there any indirect method of reaching the same ends? |
| 19560 | Is there, or is there not, a short cut to race betterment? |
| 19560 | Is this characteristic inherited? |
| 19560 | NATURE OR NURTURE? |
| 19560 | Now what has become of the unit character, feeble- mindedness? |
| 19560 | Now, given an abundant and accessible supply of alcohol to a race, what happens? |
| 19560 | Of a group of men picked at random from the population, why will some eventually die of tuberculosis and the others resist infection? |
| 19560 | Reason intervenes and asks,"Is this really the best thing for you to do now? |
| 19560 | The answer to the first question,"What is genealogy?" |
| 19560 | The bloody hand of natural selection may fall on crabs: but surely you would not have us think that Man, the Lord of Creation, shares the same fate? |
| 19560 | The question naturally arises,"What is the cause of these differences?" |
| 19560 | The question remains, will not bad housing cause a greater liability to fatal phthisis? |
| 19560 | The tax on bachelors is proposed as a means of getting bachelors to marry; but is this always desirable? |
| 19560 | The tendency is to ask, in regard to any measure,"What do the people want?" |
| 19560 | Then the question logically arose,"Is not man himself subject to these same laws? |
| 19560 | This may be very true; these conditions may follow after heredity in importance-- but how near do they follow? |
| 19560 | To be encouraged or condemned? |
| 19560 | To- day, how is it? |
| 19560 | Waiving for the moment all question as to the relative quality of two distinct races, what results are to be expected from crossing? |
| 19560 | Was a family reported as showing a taint, for instance, hereditary insanity? |
| 19560 | Was he fond of mathematical puzzles? |
| 19560 | Was mathematical ability hereditary? |
| 19560 | Was the study of calculus a recreation to him? |
| 19560 | What about Cape Cod, whose natives are known throughout New England for their ability? |
| 19560 | What are the eugenic consequences of an unassimilated immigration? |
| 19560 | What are the grounds, then, for forbidding the yellow races, or the races of British India, to enter the United States? |
| 19560 | What bearing does this have on the theory of racial poisons? |
| 19560 | What can be expected from a genealogy with eugenic foundation? |
| 19560 | What can be learned of the time element? |
| 19560 | What can the individual do? |
| 19560 | What career shall one lay out for one''s children?" |
| 19560 | What does the environmentalist_ know_ about these"plastic days"? |
| 19560 | What evidence is there that the son in this case did not get it from an entirely different source? |
| 19560 | What faults does the eugenist find with the socialist movement? |
| 19560 | What is found in examination of the races that have used alcohol the longest? |
| 19560 | What is he to do? |
| 19560 | What is to be expected from the union of these diverse streams of descent? |
| 19560 | What is to be said on the other side? |
| 19560 | What is to happen when religion gives way? |
| 19560 | What shall we say of the action of X. in remaining celibate,--is it wise or unwise? |
| 19560 | When will educators learn that the education of the emotions is as important as that of the intellect? |
| 19560 | Where is the evidence of the existence of these plastic days of childhood? |
| 19560 | While the Negroes were thus undergoing the radical surgery of natural selection, what was happening to the aborigines of America? |
| 19560 | Who are the emigrants? |
| 19560 | Who can suggest any plausible explanation of their conduct, save that they inherited a certain temperament from their sire? |
| 19560 | Why is it that results are so few? |
| 19560 | Why is it that results are so rare? |
| 19560 | Why is there such variation in the results produced by a unit character? |
| 19560 | Why? |
| 19560 | Will not destitution and its attendant conditions increase the probability that a given individual will succumb to the white plague? |
| 19560 | Would the increasing prosperity and a higher standard of living here, tend to lower the relative birth- rate of the class or not? |

| 13444 | because you feel you can not live without him? |
| 13444 | because you have a great empty place in your head and heart that nothing but a man can fill? |

| 38551 | And how far does that go? |
| 38551 | And self- supporting? |
| 38551 | And that I ca n''t ever get it back-- shall have to do clerk''s work at a clerk''s salary-- as long as I live? |
| 38551 | And what is it? |
| 38551 | And what''s her future if somebody do n''t help her? |
| 38551 | And will you punish me-- so cruelly-- for that? 38551 And you''ll help me?" |
| 38551 | And you? |
| 38551 | Are n''t you coming in to see me-- ever? |
| 38551 | Are n''t you over twenty- one? |
| 38551 | Are you engaged or are you not, you dear old thing? |
| 38551 | Are you going to scold me about something? 38551 Are you in any pain, Grandma?" |
| 38551 | Boys are apt to be mischievous, are n''t they? |
| 38551 | But Morton-- what are you going to do?--Won''t it spoil your career? |
| 38551 | But do you-- get anywhere with it? 38551 But suppose you do n''t marry?" |
| 38551 | But who is Morton Elder, and what has he done? |
| 38551 | But why, Vivian, why? 38551 But, Grandma-- is it--_can_ it be as bad as she said? |
| 38551 | By George, fellows,he said,"you know how nice Doc was last night?" |
| 38551 | Ca n''t you wait a bit and go home with me? |
| 38551 | Can she cook? |
| 38551 | Can you prove that? |
| 38551 | Charmed to find you at home, Ma''am,he said;"or shall I say at office?" |
| 38551 | Come on, take a walk with me-- won''t you? |
| 38551 | Could n''t he-- write to me-- as a friend? |
| 38551 | Dick,she said,"are you going to stand for this?" |
| 38551 | Did n''t you know I meant to have a sort of kindergarten? 38551 Did she misunderstand the invitation as bad as that?" |
| 38551 | Did you bring a trunk, Grandma? |
| 38551 | Did you swear to keep your oath secret? |
| 38551 | Do n''t you want some, Susie? 38551 Do n''t you want some?" |
| 38551 | Do what? |
| 38551 | Do you blame me, Grandma? |
| 38551 | Do you like it-- that kind of work? |
| 38551 | Do you think he cares for her, still? |
| 38551 | Do you want to be a doctor, like Jane Bellair? |

| 38551 | Fine boy-- eh? 38551 For whom?" |
| 38551 | Has he had losses? |
| 38551 | Has he kissed you yet? |
| 38551 | Has that damned doctor been giving me away? |
| 38551 | Have you anything definite to tell me-- anything that you could_ prove_?--if it were necessary to save her? |
| 38551 | Have you had supper? 38551 Have you heard that I''ve lost all my money?" |
| 38551 | He does not look well,said the lady,"you are old friends-- do tell me; if it is anything wherein a woman''s sympathy would be of service?" |
| 38551 | He writes to his aunt, of course? |
| 38551 | How can I be your friend if I do n''t know the facts? 38551 How did you ever learn to arrange things so well?" |
| 38551 | How do you find friends enough to give them to? |
| 38551 | How do you know he-- wishes to marry her? |
| 38551 | How does that go, Vivian? 38551 How long?" |
| 38551 | How old is he? |
| 38551 | How on earth have you managed not to be recognized? |
| 38551 | How''d you learn the facts, my son? 38551 How''s he getting on? |
| 38551 | How, Grandma? |
| 38551 | I hope you count me a friend? |
| 38551 | I like her-- tremendously, do n''t you? |
| 38551 | I suppose you mean travelling-- and selling goods? |
| 38551 | I suppose you''ve heard about Morton Elder? |
| 38551 | I''d like to help her and the boy, but would it-- look well? 38551 I-- excuse me; but I thought----""You thought I could n''t conveniently pay it?" |
| 38551 | Interested in philosophy, Miss Lane? |
| 38551 | Is Dr. Hale out there, or Vivian? |
| 38551 | Is a daughter always a child if she lives at home? |
| 38551 | Is he, Grandma? 38551 Is she a safe person to have in the house?" |
| 38551 | Is there any deficiency, mental or physical, about a man, to prevent his attempting this abstruse art? |
| 38551 | It''s rather a good joke on Hale, is n''t it? |
| 38551 | Life wears on you, I''m afraid, my dear.... Do you ever hear from him? |
| 38551 | Look here, Elmer Skee,she said suddenly,"how much money have you really got?" |
| 38551 | Lost a fourth? 38551 May I have the pleasure of this dance?" |
| 38551 | Mine was promised yesterday, was it not, Miss Lane? |
| 38551 | Morton has,Vivian explained,"and he wo n''t let Aunt Rella-- why where is she?" |
| 38551 | My dear young lady, you are not reading books of which your parents disapprove, I hope? |
| 38551 | Nice people, then-- how''s that? |
| 38551 | Nice world, is n''t it? |
| 38551 | Not feeling well, Mr. Lane? 38551 Not if he had smallpox, or scarlet fever, or the bubonic plague? |
| 38551 | Not sure you can? 38551 Now Vivian, are you down on me too? |
| 38551 | Now then-- What is wrong between us? |
| 38551 | Oh, say-- come in after supper, ca n''t you? 38551 Oh,_ why_, Ma''am? |
| 38551 | Oh-- I? 38551 Oh-- me? |
| 38551 | One of these happy family reunions, ma''am? |
| 38551 | Pardon me,said the reverend gentleman to Mrs. Pettigrew,"did you speak?" |
| 38551 | Should n''t I-- ever? |
| 38551 | Skee, did you say? |
| 38551 | Some parents_ are_ pretty graspin'', ai n''t they? 38551 Some sort of a fandango going on?" |
| 38551 | Stand for what, my esteemed but cryptic fellow- practitioner? |
| 38551 | Suppose I do n''t want to marry? |
| 38551 | Susie-- crying? |
| 38551 | Tea? 38551 That is a most fascinating young lady who has Mr. Dykeman''s room; do n''t you think so, ma''am?" |
| 38551 | That man Skee? |
| 38551 | That pretty little thing with the grass and flowers round it? |
| 38551 | That was why you-- left him? |
| 38551 | That''s a good scheme of Jane Bellair''s, do n''t you think so? |
| 38551 | Then you haven''t-- done it? |
| 38551 | There is no other man? |
| 38551 | There''s no reason we should n''t enjoy ourselves, Susie, of course, but are n''t you-- rather hard on them? |
| 38551 | They say you-- went to the city-- with a lot of the worst boys in college----"Well? 38551 This is your Western chivalry, is it?" |
| 38551 | Want me? |
| 38551 | Ward? 38551 Well, child, have you never in all your little life been kissed before?" |
| 38551 | Well, is this my house, or Coney Island? |
| 38551 | Well-- he can buy another, there are more, are n''t there? |
| 38551 | What am I doing? |
| 38551 | What are the difficulties? |
| 38551 | What are they to do? 38551 What are you doing here, Vivian?" |
| 38551 | What business is it of mine? |
| 38551 | What did they say? |
| 38551 | What do you call''a good business?'' |
| 38551 | What do you mean-- having the Doctor in the house? |
| 38551 | What do you say he''s really done? |
| 38551 | What do you think Mort Elder''s been doing now? |
| 38551 | What do you want to do? |
| 38551 | What have you done? |
| 38551 | What have you got to look forward to, Rella? |
| 38551 | What is her present? |
| 38551 | What is it? |
| 38551 | What is so noble as the soul of woman? 38551 What is the matter, Vivian-- are you ill?" |
| 38551 | What makes you think he wants to? |
| 38551 | What was it? |
| 38551 | What woman upset him? |
| 38551 | What''d she give up for? |
| 38551 | What''ll we be doing when we''re forty, I wonder? |
| 38551 | What''s all this rumpus? |
| 38551 | What''s the boy''s name? |
| 38551 | What''s up, anyhow? |
| 38551 | What''s up? |
| 38551 | Where are you going? |
| 38551 | Where did you get it, Dr. Hale? 38551 Where''d you get this idea anyhow?" |
| 38551 | Where''s Mrs. Jones all this time? |
| 38551 | Where''s that last letter of Morton''s? |
| 38551 | Which I judge you do not wish to be known? |
| 38551 | Who are? |
| 38551 | Who did it? |
| 38551 | Who''s got a sore throat? |
| 38551 | Why do n''t she keep an eating- house still? |
| 38551 | Why do n''t you have one yourself, Johnny? |
| 38551 | Why do you object to him, Jeanne? |
| 38551 | Why not? |
| 38551 | Why not? |
| 38551 | Why not? |
| 38551 | Why not? |
| 38551 | Why should n''t I have a good time? |
| 38551 | Why waste a thirteenth trump on your partner''s thirteenth card? |
| 38551 | Why, Morton,she said;"is that you? |
| 38551 | Why? |
| 38551 | Will they understand it if they are idiots? 38551 Will you not invite it to return?" |
| 38551 | Will you tell that to your crippled children? |
| 38551 | Wo n''t you be seated? |
| 38551 | Wo n''t you get cold? |
| 38551 | Wo n''t you speak to me-- Viva? |
| 38551 | Would n''t it-- interfere with my teaching later? |
| 38551 | Would n''t what, Girlie? 38551 Would you marry a man not young, not clever, not rich, but who loved you dearly? |
| 38551 | Would you marry a poor man? |
| 38551 | Yes; but how can you prove it on him? |
| 38551 | You are going to college, I suppose? |
| 38551 | You certainly know how, Dr. Hale,said Miss Orella;"I particularly admire these beds-- with the sheets buttoned down, German fashion, is n''t it? |
| 38551 | You folks are so strong on duty,the doctor was saying,"Why ca n''t you see a real duty in this? |
| 38551 | You have n''t repudiated Dr. Bellair, have you? |
| 38551 | You know how a year or more ago it was put about in this town that Andrew Dykeman was a ruined man? |
| 38551 | You love children, do n''t you, Vivian? |
| 38551 | You think he has-- That? |
| 38551 | You''ll do, all right, wo n''t you Theophile,he said, and offered him a shining nickel and a lozenge,"Which will you have, old man?" |
| 38551 | You''re not sick, are you? |
| 38551 | Your school? |
| 38551 | ''11:30? |
| 38551 | ''Why do n''t you come back? |
| 38551 | A little sombre, is n''t it? |
| 38551 | ACHIEVEMENTS 283_ Who should know but the woman?--The young wife- to- be? |
| 38551 | Ai nt there some among your patients who could be stirred up a little?" |
| 38551 | And Vivian-- don''t suppose I dare call you Vivian now, Miss Lane?" |
| 38551 | And Vivian? |
| 38551 | And if she must"--he looked at Vivian, and went on somewhat lamely--"dance, why not dance with me? |
| 38551 | And in the case of a motherless boy like this-- lonely, away from his home, no good woman''s influence about-- what else could we expect? |
| 38551 | And knit?" |
| 38551 | And the beautiful music club we had one Winter-- and my little private dancing class-- do you remember that? |
| 38551 | And you love me a little-- don''t you?" |
| 38551 | Any other gentleman like to make remarks on this topic?" |
| 38551 | Anything worth doing?" |
| 38551 | Are n''t you coming in?" |
| 38551 | Are n''t you ready to begin that little school of yours?" |
| 38551 | Are you going to sit still and let that dangerous patient of yours marry the finest girl in town?" |
| 38551 | Are you happy in it?" |
| 38551 | Are you not yet a child in your father''s house?" |
| 38551 | Bellair?" |
| 38551 | Bellair?" |
| 38551 | But I thought awhile back that I had n''t any chance-- you were n''t jealous of that Artificial Fairy, were you?" |
| 38551 | But Viva,"--his hand pressed closer--"is it only-- friends?" |
| 38551 | But have we no faults? |
| 38551 | But he fell desperately in love with that beautiful Mrs. James-- don''t you remember about her? |
| 38551 | But she heard again Dr. Bellair''s clear low accusing voice--"Will you tell that to your crippled children?" |
| 38551 | But why did he change?" |
| 38551 | But-- was it womanly to go there-- for that? |
| 38551 | Ca n''t we be-- friends?" |
| 38551 | Ca n''t you do that''Kerry Dance''of Molloy''s, and''Twickenham Ferry''--and''Lauriger Horatius?''" |
| 38551 | Ca n''t you reconsider?" |
| 38551 | Ca n''t you see''em, upside down on the bath apron, grabbing at things, perfectly happy, but prepared to howl when it comes to dressing? |
| 38551 | Ca n''t you-- can''t we-- do something to-- stop this awfulness?" |
| 38551 | Can it be had here?" |
| 38551 | Cloud? |
| 38551 | Could she be the help and stimulus he seemed to think? |
| 38551 | Did n''t you know it before?" |
| 38551 | Do I look like it?" |
| 38551 | Do you imagine that all these fifteen men are going to propose to you?" |
| 38551 | Do you mean to let Morton Elder marry Vivian Lane?" |
| 38551 | Do you mean to let a man whom you know has no right to marry, poison the life of that splendid girl?" |
| 38551 | Do you think I_ could_ count on them-- really?" |
| 38551 | Do you want a son like Theophile?" |
| 38551 | Do you want to grow up like the rest of the useless single women in this little social cemetery?" |
| 38551 | Do_ you_ think she would? |
| 38551 | Dr. Ward of the_ Centurion_?" |
| 38551 | Dykeman?" |
| 38551 | Elder?" |
| 38551 | Hale?" |
| 38551 | Hale?" |
| 38551 | Have I done anything wrong?" |
| 38551 | Have I done anything you do n''t like?" |
| 38551 | Have a toothache and not_ mention_ it? |
| 38551 | He consulted her also about Vivian-- did she not think the girl looked worn and ill? |
| 38551 | He did not even say,"When will you marry me?" |
| 38551 | He did not say again,"Will you marry me?" |
| 38551 | He had said this, he had looked that, he had done so; and what did Vivian think he meant? |
| 38551 | He says he''s working on a book-- some big medical book, I suppose; but what''s the hurry? |
| 38551 | He whitened to the lips, but asked quietly,"Why?" |
| 38551 | House room?" |
| 38551 | How can a fellow say why?" |
| 38551 | How do you know? |
| 38551 | How many could you handle?" |
| 38551 | How much did he mean by asking her to help him? |
| 38551 | How''s that dear baby getting on?" |
| 38551 | I do n''t suppose you could give an absolute opinion now, could you?" |
| 38551 | I wonder what did happen to him?" |
| 38551 | If she had had a daughter would she not have thanked anyone who would try to save her from such a danger? |
| 38551 | If some say"Innocence is the greatest charm of young girls,"the answer is,"What good does it do them?" |
| 38551 | In the same business he was last year?" |
| 38551 | Is it somebody''s birthday?" |
| 38551 | Is it the swelled kind, or the kind that smarts?" |
| 38551 | Is not that it?" |
| 38551 | Is she a plain cook or a handsome one?" |
| 38551 | Is that jacket for me, by any chance? |
| 38551 | Is there any outlook for you? |
| 38551 | Just because a man''s lost his money? |
| 38551 | Little soft cheeks against yours, little soft mouths and little soft kisses,--ever think of them?" |
| 38551 | May I have the pleasure, Miss Lane?" |
| 38551 | May I speak for a little? |
| 38551 | Now, Orella Elder, why do n''t you wake up and seize the opportunity?" |
| 38551 | Now, why do n''t you give up your unnatural attempt to be a doctor and assume woman''s proper sphere? |
| 38551 | O-- and please-- I have n''t a bit of change left in my purse-- will you pay the man?" |
| 38551 | Once more, Dick, shall you do anything?" |
| 38551 | Or for that matter, what do any boys''fathers and mothers know? |
| 38551 | Pettigrew?" |
| 38551 | Say-- are you coming to the club to- morrow night?" |
| 38551 | She wo n''t miss me a mite-- will you Grandma?" |
| 38551 | Sue Elder, I wish----""Wish what?" |
| 38551 | Suppose a patient of yours had the leprosy, and wanted to marry your sister, would you betray his confidence?" |
| 38551 | Tell me, ought not there to be more-- more love? |
| 38551 | Then he came forward, calmly inquiring,"Why have n''t you sent me my board bill?" |
| 38551 | This flat, narrow life, so long, so endlessly long-- would nothing ever end it? |
| 38551 | This is good- bye-- You wo n''t change your mind-- again?" |
| 38551 | To live to hear him say:"''Ah, who am I that God should bow From heaven to choose a wife for me? |
| 38551 | Well, shall we be going back? |
| 38551 | What are you sitting up for? |
| 38551 | What can be the reason? |
| 38551 | What did Rella know? |
| 38551 | What do they say I did?" |
| 38551 | What do you say, Miss Lane?" |
| 38551 | What do you want to do, Vivian?" |
