19834Do you mean ought she to be punished? 19834 Do you really want me to tell you?
19834Do you think they''re safe?
19834Do you want to know what was in my May basket?
19834Does she care for me or does n''t she?
19834Does that mean that I''m to sit here where I can admire my warlike appearance?
19834Ethel Blue, do you really know what you''re talking about?
19834First cabbages, then''luggies'',said Della"What are''luggies''?"
19834Going?
19834Helen and Tom ca n''t say that they''never sing the old, old songs,''can they?
19834How can we ring in the children so they can have more of a part than singing carols?
19834How did it begin?
19834How many do you expect at your party?
19834How would it please you if the car took you back and helped you carry those parcels for your mother?
19834Is n''t he rather old to come to a kids''party?
19834Is this the first year you''ve had a Hallowe''en party?
19834Is this your car?
19834It was? 19834 Leave it?
19834Madam President, may the treasurer report, please?
19834Meaning?
19834Meaning?
19834Miss Merriam not here?
19834Mr. Clark says I am going away? 19834 Namely?"
19834Now, what does that mean?
19834Oh, Miss Gertrude and Aunt Louise said,''why should Edward have said such a thing?'' 19834 Oh, is there any chance of Mrs. Watkins''s letting them go?"
19834On Hallowe''en?
19834Outsiders?
19834Pretty bad break?
19834Ready?
19834See that?
19834She has?
19834She is n''t what you''d call really fat yet, is she?
19834Sowens? 19834 The dog with the perfectly_ extraordinary_ face?
19834The same people we chopped wood for?
19834The whole U. S. C.? 19834 There is n''t any trick about it?"
19834This is n''t a girls''game is it?
19834This way?
19834Too heavy for her?
19834Unless he wanted it to be true?
19834We''re going to stop at Dorothy''s, are n''t we?
19834Were n''t you taking a good deal for granted?
19834What do the initials mean?
19834What do you expect from a cabbage?
19834What do you mean?
19834What do you say, then, if we decide to limit our Christmas work as a club to doing something for the orphanage and for Elisabeth? 19834 What does she mean?"
19834What does she mean?
19834What does that mean translated into Rosemont language?
19834What have you got there?
19834What is she going to do?
19834What shall I tell him?
19834What''s that?
19834What''s the modern way of dealing with that situation?
19834What''s this for?
19834When is she coming?
19834When is she going?
19834Where am I?
19834Where are the girls this afternoon?
19834Where is Roger really?
19834Where is she going?
19834Where''s Ayleesabet?
19834Who is it, Dicky?
19834Why ca n''t she? 19834 Why ca n''t we continue to make the Christmas Ship useful somehow?"
19834Why could n''t they wear an arm band marked SAILOR? 19834 Why do n''t you stir up the Hancock''s?"
19834Why does n''t your club give a series of holiday parties?
19834Why is she humiliated?
19834Why not go to the School of Mothercraft? 19834 Why not make them do the work themselves-- the work of distributing the gifts?"
19834Why should n''t we?
19834Why?
19834Will they have a tree?
19834Will you ask Miss Morgan to come out here with the children and will you join us in the study?
19834Will you shake hands with me, Ayleesabet?
19834Wo n''t you bring her in to see us once in a while?
19834Wo n''t you tell me?
19834Would you mind our asking some of our friends?
19834You''d hate to leave it, would n''t you?
19834You''re dining at your Aunt Louise''s, dear?
19834You''re giving all the work to the boys; what can the girls do?
19834You''re happy here, are n''t you?
19834''Thought''or''hoped''?"
19834Am I clear?"
19834And the house is only a step from the main street-- can''t we take her?"
19834Anybody got an idea?"
19834Anybody ready to try?
19834Are you infants ready?"
19834Are you ready?"
19834Are you ready?"
19834CHAPTER VII NEW YEAR''S EVE"Where is Katharine?"
19834Della and Tom, for instance?"
19834Did n''t I dance in your minuet?"
19834Did you notice this picture of Mother''s and Grandfather''s class on Recognition Day?
19834Did you say it?"
19834Did you say it?"
19834Do n''t you see that I''m not all to blame?"
19834Do n''t you see, Ethel Blue?
19834Do n''t you want to climb up?
19834Do you think Aunt Louise will let her go?"
19834Do you think you could find a chance to tell her how it was?
19834Do you?"
19834Has anything happened in my absence?"
19834How could she know that that was a time and place where it would inconvenience somebody else if she did?
19834How did you do it?"
19834How far have you walked?"
19834How many in the Club?
19834I do n''t believe you''d find it enormously entertaining to hunt up your gate the next day and re- hang it, would you?"
19834I''d be mighty glad if we had one, would n''t you, Mother?"
19834Is that straight?"
19834Now who has any suggestions?"
19834See how red and bright it is?"
19834Shall I call her?"
19834She can have Dicky''s old crib, of course, but where shall we put it?"
19834She''d never learn much if she did n''t investigate, would she?
19834Ten?"
19834That Dr. Watkins said he thought I was going away?"
19834They''re not tiring you out, I hope?"
19834This is the Belgian baby?"
19834Was n''t that it, Roger?"
19834What are Ethel Blue and Dorothy up to?"
19834What are you doing over here?"
19834What did she say then?"
19834What do you mean?"
19834What in the world are sowens?"
19834What on earth do you mean?"
19834What was she to say?
19834What''s the next?"
19834When shall I go to you?"
19834Where''s Roger?"
19834Where''s my pastepot, Dorothy?"
19834Where, for instance, is she going to sleep?"
19834Who''ll volunteer as longshoremen?"
19834Why I told you about it now is because we planned to go out in a few minutes and go up and down some of the streets, and--""Lift gates?"
19834Why do you call her that?"
19834Why not?
19834Why should I leave it?
19834Why should n''t we pay her?"
19834Why should she?
19834Will the students be willing to break in on their course?"
19834Will you hang this one on Miss Gertrude''s door-- the door of her room, so that there wo n''t be any mistake about her getting it?"
19834Will you tell her I''d like to apologize before I go to Oklahoma?"
19834Yes, any girl would be indignant, would n''t she?"
19834You do n''t think it can mean that I shall have to devote myself to that husband I pulled out of the cabbage patch?"
19834You remember it?"
19834You remember, it was at Chautauqua for the summer?
20795A confession, father?
20795After a hard struggle, I suppose?
20795Also very young, eh?
20795An''t he beautiful, John? 20795 And could you steal, disguised, into the house of your old friend?"
20795And pleads for her?
20795And you''ll remember what I have said?
20795Anything else, John?
20795Are you ill? 20795 As if I meant it?"
20795Busy just now, Caleb?
20795But how should you know what little complaints children are troubled with, John? 20795 But living people are not fancies?"
20795Can you bear to look through that window, do you think?
20795Do n''t what?
20795Do you hear that, father?
20795Do you mean to say she do n''t, then?
20795Do you recollect the voice, dear Caleb? 20795 Do you?"
20795Girl?
20795Happily over?
20795Here alone?
20795How in the same boat?
20795How many more cups of tea shall I drink to- night, at one sitting, than Gruff and Tackleton ever took in four, I wonder?
20795I have spoken plainly?
20795Indeed?
20795Is it over?
20795It an''t right for him to turn''em up in that way,said the astonished Carrier,"is it?
20795John Peerybingle,said Tackleton in his ear,"I hope there has been nothing-- nothing rash in the night?"
20795Mary,said Bertha,"where is your hand?
20795Miss Slowboy,said Tackleton,"will you have the kindness to throw that in the fire?
20795My good fellow, how do you find yourself this morning?
20795Niece?
20795Oh, why,cried the Blind Girl, tortured, as it seemed, almost beyond endurance,"why did you ever do this?
20795Shall I go?
20795Shall I tell you a secret, Bertha?
20795Sitting in the open air, John?
20795So these are all the parcels, are they, John?
20795So, these are all the parcels, are they, John?
20795Something for our Governor, eh?
20795Surely? 20795 The old gentleman?"
20795Thinking of, John? 20795 What about the owl that ca n''t sing, and ought n''t to sing, and will sing; is there anything that_ he_ should be made to do?"
20795What and whom do_ I_ know? 20795 What are you talking about?"
20795What do you mean, you vagabond?
20795What has happened? 20795 What is it?"
20795What should tire me, Bertha? 20795 Where do you make out cash?"
20795Where''s the pipe?
20795Who, then?
20795Whose is it, John? 20795 Whose step is that?"
20795Whose step?
20795Why not?
20795Why, what else are you?
20795Why, what the Devil''s this, John Peerybingle?
20795Why, what''s this round box? 20795 Why, you an''t particularly old at any time, are you?"
20795Why?
20795Why?
20795You are not married before noon,he said,"I think?"
20795You have your working dress on, and are not so gallant as when you wear the handsome coat?
20795You kill your Crickets, eh?
20795You know all about it, then?
20795You''ll come to the wedding? 20795 You''ll give him house room till we go?"
20795You''ll say you''ll come? 20795 ( Why do n''t you kill that Cricket? 20795 ***** But what is this? 20795 ***** But what was that young figure of a man, which the same Fairy Cricket set so near Her stool, and which remained there, singly and alone? 20795 A game at cribbage, you and I? 20795 Again the staring figures turned upon him all at once, and seemed to say,Is this the wife who has forsaken you?"
20795All right now, I hope?"
20795And when the day broke, and the glorious red sun-- the_ red_ sun, father?"
20795Are they wheels?"
20795Are those wheels upon the road?
20795As unlike her!--Why, how many years older than you is Gruff and Tackleton, John?"
20795As you like; what does it matter?
20795Besides, you have been delivering, I dare say, as you came along?"
20795Between ourselves( as I told you before, eh?)
20795Boxer''s pretty well I hope?"
20795But do you think there''s anything more in it?"
20795But oh, dear John, how could you, could you think so?"
20795But who cared for such trifles?
20795But, before he could have read two lines, he again interrupted himself to say:"Baby yours?"
20795Can you spare me half an hour or so, for some private talk?"
20795Could she be blithe and cheerful in her parting?
20795Could she kiss them?
20795Could she venture to reveal her face to them without a blush?
20795Dark as pitch, and weather worse than ever, eh?
20795Did I consider how little suited I was to her sprightly humour, and how wearisome a plodding man like me must be to one of her quick spirit?
20795Did I consider that it was no merit in me, or claim in me, that I loved her, when everybody must who knew her?
20795Did I mention that he had always one eye wide open, and one eye nearly shut; and that the one eye nearly shut was always the expressive eye?
20795Did you ever hear the like of it before?"
20795Did you ever learn''How doth the little,''when you went to school, John?"
20795Did you send them?"
20795Do I speak plainly?"
20795Do n''t he look precious in his sleep?"
20795Do n''t you know what a wedding is?"
20795Do n''t you, John?"
20795Eh?"
20795Fielding?"
20795From this state of inaction he was then recalled, shining very much and roaring violently, to partake of-- well?
20795Hardly time for both, I should think?"
20795Have you got anything in the parcel line for me, John?"
20795He generally_ is_ asleep, an''t he?"
20795He has n''t been here, has he?"
20795How could it be murder, if he gave the villain time to grapple with him hand to hand?
20795How''s Baby, mum?
20795How_ can_ you?
20795I am never tired, you know, of hearing about him.--Now, was I ever?"
20795I had better go, by- the- bye.--You could n''t have the goodness to let me pinch Boxer''s tail, mum, for half a moment, could you?"
20795I ought to know, I hope?
20795It''s curious that he should have taken it into his head to ask leave to go on lodging with us; an''t it?
20795Mrs. Edward Plummer, I infer?"
20795Or what had the Fairies been doing with him, to have effected such a change?
20795Ow, what has everybody gone and been and done with everybody, making everybody else so wretched?
20795She is very fair?"
20795Thackeray wrote of it:"Who can listen to objections regarding such a book as this?
20795The Stranger raised his head; and, glancing from the latter to the former, said:"Your daughter, my good friend?"
20795Then you do mean to take some notice of this?"
20795Though it might only be"How are you?"
20795Though why you should have said, as I very well recollect you did say, Bertha,''Whose step is that?''
20795To- night?"
20795Very near?"
20795Walk?
20795Was her brain wandering?
20795Was it you?"
20795Was such a wonder ever heard of?
20795What can be too good for you?"
20795What does it mean?"
20795What frightened Dot, I wonder?"
20795What is it?
20795What is it?
20795What next?
20795What shall your eyes do for you, dear?"
20795What''s that?"
20795What''s the damage, John?"
20795What''s the matter?"
20795What_ had_ he been doing with himself all his life, never to have known before his great capacity of being jovial?
20795Where are you, John?
20795Where are your gay young bridegrooms now?"
20795Where is it going?"
20795Where''s Dot?"
20795Where''s John, for goodness''sake?"
20795Who''s that with the grey hair?"
20795Why did you ever fill my heart so full, and then come in like Death, and tear away the objects of my love?
20795Why has its shadow fallen on his hearth?
20795With Cash, John?
20795With wonder?
20795Would n''t you, May?"
20795Would she do all this, dear father?"
20795Would you, in your kindness, suffer me to rent a bed here?"
20795You are here, are you?
20795You are not tired, father?"
20795You believe that, now, do n''t you, John?"
20795You loved him like a son; did n''t you?
20795You never told me anything of_ her_ that was not true?"
20795You recollect, John?"
20795You wo n''t give us to- morrow evening?
20795You''d not deceive me now; would you?"
20795You''d think, if you did n''t know him, he was in earnest-- wouldn''t you now?"
20795You''ll expect me?"
20795You''ll say you''ll come?"
20795You''ll stay with me the while?"
20795You''re agreeable?
20795You''re singing, are you?"
20795You''ve got the basket with the Veal and Ham Pie and things, and the bottles of Beer?"
20795_ I_ hope and pray that I might learn to love you?
20795and being there,--how are you?"
20795and here''s her good father will come with her, wo n''t you, Caleb?
20795exclaimed her father, smitten at one blow with the truth,"have I deceived her from her cradle, but to break her heart at last?"
20795what are you thinking of?"
20795what''s home?"
20795who''d have thought it?"
20795why do you say, I know?"
20795you wo n''t send me home this evening, will you?"
20795you''re there, are you?"
16648All is,she said,"will those Downings do as well when there are no other girls to make them think the work is play?"
16648And now, what am I going to do about the mail- bag? 16648 And so you are your papa''s good fairy?
16648And were you surprised, and did you like the cake and the thirty- six candles, dearest, darling mamma?
16648And what was done with the fines?
16648And when can it be? 16648 Are you sure it''s healthful exercise?"
16648Bless us,cried the Mayor,"what''s that?"
16648But how shall I get it?
16648Buy them, child? 16648 Could we buy them at any price we could pay?"
16648Cynthia Mason? 16648 Dear mamma, do n''t think me prying, but is Potter''s the only pressing obligation on papa just now?"
16648Did a telegram from me reach Dr. Wainwright last evening?
16648Did you bring some from home?
16648Did you see the money she''s got? 16648 Do you always put your tools in order on rainy days?"
16648Do you not suppose some one is coming to meet me?
16648Do you think we can always see the answers, feel sure He has heard us?
16648Does it?
16648Girls,said Linda Curtis,"what shall we do for a wind- up to the summer?
16648Going home?
16648Have you taken your pills?
16648How can a silly beast give anyone rational advice?
16648How did we ever consent to let our middle daughter stay away all these years, mother?
16648How did you get away?
16648How far away is Judge Hastings''home, papa?
16648How much do you want for the lot?
16648How would you like to engage yourself to me for the fall and winter? 16648 How?"
16648I believe it was to- day that the girls meant to have the candy pull at Jeanie''s, was n''t it?
16648I ca n''t tell a lie about it, can I?
16648I feel tired; do n''t you?
16648I should like to know who would be cheerful when his neck is in danger?
16648I think you believe in preparing for work beforehand, do n''t you, Uncle Giles?
16648I wonder what it can be? 16648 If the dough is soft wo n''t it stick to our fingers?"
16648Interpretations?
16648Is he good to her? 16648 Is n''t it scrumptious, Laura?"
16648Is n''t it too bad,said Charlie,"to think I''ve missed so much, and all through the want of a shoe- string?"
16648Is not this the golden bird that we bring?
16648Is she an educated woman?
16648Is that Burden''s cart going down the lane?
16648Is the motion seconded?
16648Is this all your household? 16648 Is this the New Woman breaking her shell?"
16648Lulu dear, wo n''t you get those flowers for me? 16648 Mamma,"said Grace, after a few minutes,"will you tell me plainly, if you do n''t mind, what is worrying papa?
16648May the girls come over often?
16648Might I go and see her?
16648Milly,said Lois,"do you honestly think sweeping is harder exercise than playing tennis or golf?"
16648Miss Muffet?
16648Mother dear,said Grace one evening, as they sat together for a twilight talk,"do you believe God always answers prayers?"
16648Mother, darling, may I have a good long talk with you to- day, a confidential talk, we two by ourselves?
16648Not let you go? 16648 Now, Aunt Hetty,"I remonstrated,"why will you be so horrid?
16648Now, then, what is the matter with you, old friend?
16648Of all things, where can the harm be? 16648 Of what, pray?--Sanscrit or Egyptian or Greek?
16648Oh, you be Dr. Wainwright''s darter that''s been to foreign parts, be you? 16648 Oh, you dear, good papa?"
16648One? 16648 Papa,"Amy proceeded, when order had been restored,"why not take us when you go to interview the judge?
16648Really? 16648 She''s clear grit, is n''t she?"
16648Their van will be upon us Before the bridge goes down; And if they once may win the bridge What hope to save the town?
16648Want some crickets and grasshoppers?
16648Well, to go back to our girlie, she''s to be allowed to take her own way, is n''t she, and to be as energetic and work as steadily as she likes?
16648Well, what do you see?
16648Well,said this last comer, whose name was Frank Fletcher,"will your mother let you go, Harry, boy?
16648What are we going to tell mother and father anyhow?
16648What are you carrying under your apron?
16648What do I see?
16648What does this mean?
16648What is Potter''s bill, dear mamma, and how do we come to owe it?
16648What is it, aunty?
16648What is that? 16648 What is there about the Vanderhovens?"
16648What made you bring your mamma''s shawl?
16648What shall we call you?
16648What sort of a programme?
16648What sort of refreshments? 16648 What will you take for your ship?"
16648What would you like?
16648What''s that for?
16648What''s that you have?
16648Where are my pupils?
16648Where are the gold pieces?
16648Where are you going so early, Little Redcap?
16648Where did you find him?
16648Where does your grandmother live, Little Redcap?
16648Where shall my boxes be carried, sister?
16648Which of the Raeburns do you suppose they can best spare?
16648Who is there?
16648Why did n''t you tell mamma so? 16648 Why do n''t your King''s Daughters give Grace a boom?
16648Why in the Academy?
16648Why not have a four- leaved clover as our badge? 16648 Why not have a little play?
16648Why not have waited two or three days before having a company tea? 16648 Why not in somebody''s parlor?"
16648Why not, dear?
16648Why, Harry Pemberton, how dare you say_ stealing_ to me?
16648Why, mamma-- it''s my birthday; but you do n''t think there''s anything on foot that I do n''t know of-- do you, dearest?
16648Why, yes, Tom, ai n''t you?
16648Yes, I know it, but I do n''t think we will, do you?
16648You do n''t call us kids, do you, papa?
16648You wo n''t, eh, little saint?
16648You''ll let me go, wo n''t you, ma?
16648You''ll spend all my money, wo n''t you?
16648You?
16648Your cries are enough to pierce bone and marrow,said the ass;"what is the matter?"
16648''Are you sure of that?''
16648A lady is a loaf- giver, do n''t you know?"

16648Alice, what did you do to make your reception- room so perfectly splendiferous?
16648And he stood and cried unto the armies of Israel, and said unto them, Why are ye come out to set your battle in array?
16648And the men of Israel said, Have ye seen this man that is come up?
16648And you''re coming this afternoon?"
16648Are there any remarks?"
16648Are they lonely without us, I wonder?"
16648Are you a seeress or a witch, dear child?"
16648Are you hurt, Amy?"
16648Are you not sorry that you yielded to it?"
16648As time went on, Grace surely did not have to share a third part of her sisters''room, did she?
16648At this instant,"Is this Grace Wainwright?"
16648Barnes?"
16648Begin to- day?
16648But what became of the poor fox?
16648But whom should we have?
16648But-- Hilox?
16648By- the- way, child, did Aunt Hetty give thee mother''s letter?"
16648By- the- way, what became of the pieces?"
16648Can I let you have it after this?"
16648Can you teach them the latter?"
16648Can you, as a great favor, let her come home with me now?
16648Certainly it was not a boat, and what else could be floating so calmly several feet out from the land?
16648Charades?"
16648Did I say, all?
16648Did mother think me a baby?
16648Did n''t you hear these chaps laugh at you this morning?"
16648Did you come on the train?"
16648Do n''t you know that in every''Oh, my Father,''is the answer,''Here, my child?''"
16648Does she know that, I say?"
16648Does somebody ask which of the minister''s eight children is telling this story?
16648Every day?
16648Finally John managed to stammer,"Do-- do you want to go in that pond?"
16648For fines?
16648Grandmamma was always my resort when I was at my wits''end, and so I went to her with a question:"Had she anything which would do for our caps?"
16648Had she ever met any one from Hilox?
16648Have you ever tried them?
16648Have you no father or mother?"
16648Have you not another son?"
16648Here, Maria, help a fellow, wo n''t you?
16648Honest?"
16648How did it get out of the bag?"
16648How is thee to have the fair unless thee has the candy pull?
16648How should any one buy gallows- meat?
16648I believe you wish to be a minister one of these days, do n''t you, Rufus?"
16648I do n''t mean generally, but what special trouble is on his mind to- day?"
16648I forgot to ask you before, may we stop at Gardener Jim''s on the way home?"
16648I grew desperate, and, going up to her, put my hand on her shoulder, saying:"_ Aunt Hetty_, are n''t we to have our dinner?
16648I''ll take this; but where''s the other?"
16648If somebody wants to drive a nail, It''s"Where is the hammer, my dear?"
16648Insulted by a lazy ribald With idle pipe and vesture piebald?
16648Is Mrs. Raeburn as sweet as ever?
16648Is he grateful?"
16648Is n''t it always just so?"
16648Is n''t it fortunate, mother, that we have n''t broken or lost anything_ this_ congregation has bestowed?"
16648Is n''t it later than usual, girlie?"
16648Is n''t that fair, boys?"
16648Is n''t that so, wife?"
16648Is there anything which girls detest as they do this everyday work?
16648Just as I was ready to start, Aunt Hetty came to the kitchen door, calling me, persuasively:"Miss Milly, honey, what yo''done mean to hab for dinner?"
16648Lend her to me, please?"
16648Little Hans was helping mother Carry home the lady''s basket; Chubby hands of course were lifting One great handle-- can you ask it?
16648Lucy and Helen and my little Madge are to be educated, and the question is how, when, and where?
16648Make haste, child, do?"
16648Mason?"
16648May we write you more fully on the subject, if you are inclined to take our vacancy into your favorable consideration?
16648Mice?"
16648Mother might be tireless in her devotion, trying day and night to make him forget the pain-- what mother would not have done all in her power?
16648Mother, is there any change in your pocketbook?"
16648Now do n''t you want me to sing to you?
16648Now is not one of your daughters musical, and perhaps another sufficiently mistress of the elementary branches to teach these babies?
16648Now who will stand on either hand, And keep the bridge with me?"
16648Quoth he,"The she- wolf''s litter Stand savagely at bay; But will ye dare to follow, If Astur clears the way?"
16648See, her address is written on the side of the envelope?"
16648She just squeezes through the gate, and then,"Down heaven''s hill a radiant saint Comes flying with a palm,''Are you here, Bridget O''Flaherty?''
16648So the king''s son set off to find the golden horse, but he sighed and was very sad, for how should it be accomplished?
16648Something which will be remembered when we are grown up and have forgotten our girlish pranks?"
16648Suppose we give that to the mother as a keepsake?"
16648Suppose we take him home with us for a while?"
16648That''s the pretty child with the pale face and dark eyes who sits in the pew near the minister''s, is n''t it?"
16648The plan was successfully carried out, and when the young man returned with the treasure the fox said:"Now, what will you give me for my reward?"
16648Then, turning to Mildred,"My mother is no better, is she?
16648There''s a very strange country called Outovplace,( I''ve been there quite often, have you?)
16648We were going over to your house, and may we take you?
16648What are you talking about?
16648What color of paint is in the brush?"
16648What could be the matter?
16648What could she do besides?
16648What could she mean?
16648What did this mean?
16648What else is wrong?
16648What girl would in the circumstances?
16648What had she, with her Greek professorate looming up like a star in mid- heaven before her-- what had she to do with love and a lover?
16648What is the matter?"
16648What noble Lucumo comes next To taste our Roman cheer?"
16648What''s the matter, ca n''t you find the paint brush?"
16648Where do you live, my boy?"
16648Where was the other?
16648Which should she open first?
16648Which should she read first?
16648Who can tell what sudden disappointment a moment may bring?
16648Who was that?
16648Who''s got the money?
16648Whom shall we ask?"
16648Whose birthday is it?
16648Why are_ you_ lounging here so idly?
16648Why dost thou stay and turn away?
16648Why had he saddened her?
16648Why is nothing ready?"
16648Would n''t she, Frances?"
16648Would n''t this be a good time to paint those boxes for Aunt Martha''s flowers?
16648Would she be reduced to taking in fine washing and hemstitching, and canning fruit?"
16648Would you like a piece of that to be broken if it were yours?"
16648Yet what did that matter after they had reached the school?
16648You do n''t want the grass to grow under your feet, do you?
16648You know you promised to paint them for her, and if you do it now, they''ll be good and dry when she wants to pot her plants in September?"
16648You threaten us, fellow?
16648You wanted to paint in your roses and clematis before noon, did n''t you?
16648You would form classes, would you not?
16648You''re going to the party, of course, Cynthy?"
16648_ How_ can I manage if you wo n''t help?
16648a very queer country is Outovplace--( Did you say you had been there?)
16648am not I a Philistine, and ye servants to Saul?
16648are you never coming with those beans?
16648asked Mr. Robinson;"a letter?
16648cried the Mayor,"d''ye think I''ll brook Being worse treated than a cook?
16648exclaimed Phoebe,"it seems almost like being there, does n''t it?
16648for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?
16648how can a boy get off to school, If he''s always bothered this way?
16648if you will buy them off,"answered the people;"but why should you spend your money in redeeming such worthless men?"
16648quoth false Sextus;"Will not the villain drown?
16648said the Dean,"you have heard from Hilox, have n''t you?
16648she exclaimed,"is Miss L---- in her right mind?"
