55535It''s good of you to say that,she said, and then, with a frank smile,"tell me, Humphrey, do you really miss me very much?"
55535It''s only for to- night,she said...."Why did you kiss me?"
55535It''s pretty here, eh?
55535Life''s not so bad when you get used to it?

55535No-- what is it?
55535None of my men drink, eh?
55535Not well?
55535Nothing would make you give up Fleet Street, I suppose?
55535Now, yesterday, for instance?
55535Of course, you''ve never thought of that-- have you? 55535 Of what use is tea and coffee to us?
55535Oh, well, you see he was in love with this girl..."Which girl?
55535Oh,said Mrs Filmer, rising and coming forward to shake hands with him,"how do you do?"
55535Oh? 55535 Ought n''t I to meet her?"
55535Pray, what of my bulrushes?
55535Sacked?
55535Sad business this of Mr Bellowes?
55535Shall I tell you? 55535 Shall we go now?"
55535She has n''t been here lately?

55535Somebody in Easterham?
55535Still with the nose to the grindstone?
55535Still, it''s nice to see everything, is n''t it? 55535 Stopping for the declaration of the poll, Pride?"
55535Tell me, soldier,she sang,"what do you think of in battle?
55535Tell me,he said, with a lover''s vanity,"when did you first know that I loved you?"
55535Thanks,he said( was his voice really as strange and as husky as it sounded to his ears?)
55535That all the experience you''ve had?
55535Then it does n''t matter...?
55535There is nothing that is happening, ai n''t it?
55535Tired?
55535Very sad, is n''t it?
55535Wait?
55535Was I so late?
55535Well, Pride, I hope things are going all right?
55535Well, how goes it?
55535Well, what about a drink?
55535Well, what about your father?
55535Well, what are you doing to- day, Quain?

55535Well, what''s up?
55535Well,Mrs Pride said to him;"so you''re going to try your luck in London, Mr Quain?"
55535Well,said Beaver,"got over your hump?"
55535Well,said Humphrey,"what sort of a chap was this Mr Bellowes?"
55535Well?
55535Well?
55535Were you ever a reporter?
55535What about Miss Sycamore?
55535What about food?
55535What about mother?

55535Why was he so discouraging?
55535Why?
55535Why?
55535Will you come? 55535 Will you have some more tea?"
55535Will you pay the late call at the newspaper offices? 55535 Without them?"
55535Wo n''t t''old hoss do, guv''nor?
55535Wo n''t you come and have a cup of tea?
55535Wo n''t you play something?
55535Would n''t he talk?
55535Would you? 55535 Yes, why not?"
55535You are n''t married then?
55535You could n''t expect me to live on you...."Why not? 55535 You mean to the funeral?"
55535You must not say that.... You wo n''t mind waiting, just a little, will you? 55535 You no like the fricassee, sare?"
55535You sent for me, sir?
55535You will allow me to pay?
55535You will, really?
55535You''ll be editor one day, eh?
55535You''ll let me see you home, wo n''t you?
55535_ C''est quelque chose de grave?_she asked.
55535_ Dis donc_,Desirée said,"are you going again?"
55535_ Eh, bien!_said a voice at Humphrey''s elbow,"she is very good, our little Desirée,_ hein_?"
55535_ J''adore les Anglais, ils sont si gentils._"And why can not you stop?
55535_ Qu''est que c''est?_Margot asked, fussily.

55535("I believe those eyes were saying something to me?")
55535("I wonder what her name is?")
555353 pit: an explosion; a fire--"What is it?
55535A change of voice, a change of expression, a movement of her body-- what was it?
55535A glorious touch, eh?"
55535After all, he thought, was this knowledge?
55535After all, what did it matter?
55535After all, what did it matter?
55535After all, why should n''t he tell Ferrol?
55535And Margaret...?
55535And he thought:"Will my hand be like that one day?"
55535And is n''t it dreadfully difficult to fill the paper?"
55535And now--?
55535And then--"Tommy and I are going to retire soon,"Mrs Pride said, with a fond glance at her husband,"are n''t we, Tommy?"
55535And, as Humphrey left the room, he heard Wratten say casually,"I''ll do that Guildhall luncheon to- day, Rivers, eh?"
55535Anything happened?
55535Are they as bad now?"
55535As bad as the flight to Varennes, is n''t it?"
55535As soon as you marry, what happens?
55535Ask''em who''s Cannock?
55535Barboux continued:"Is it not the most beautiful, the most wonderful, the most entrancing city in the world, young Englishman?"
55535But what of the woman at home?--cooped up in her home with babies?
55535But what''s going to happen to me?"
55535Ca n''t remember it... never mind, I say, old man,_ can_ you spare a bob?"
55535Can you both manage the big one?"
55535Can you imagine anything more peaceful than that book- case?"
55535Can you speak French?"
55535Did n''t you know?...
55535Did you ever speak to her, then?"
55535Do n''t you like being called a boy?"
55535Do n''t you think I hate the idea of never being able to write it as I see it?
55535Do you come often?"
55535Do you see?"
55535Do you think of the glory of the Fatherland and the splendour of dying for France?"
55535Do you think we can live on three pounds a week?"
55535Do you want to go there?"
55535Does all this go towards the making of a man, as the steel is tempered by the fire?
55535Eh?
55535Eh?
55535Eh?"
55535Explain to them, wo n''t you?
55535Go out in the morning and ask people?
55535Had he really taken more than usual care to write his account of their doings?
55535Had she ever been like Lilian?
55535Have n''t you got her?
55535He forgot everything else... what else mattered?
55535He found himself pausing, pen in hand, at his desk in the reporters''room, thinking,"Would Elizabeth be pleased with this?..."
55535He had felt humiliated by her words: did she imagine that he had no heart at all?
55535He made swift calculations-- twelve and seven-- nineteen, and coals-- what of coals?
55535He would ask himself, almost unconsciously,"What does it look like?"
55535He''ll have to pay the cab, Elizabeth, wo n''t he?"
55535His eyes wandered to the buttons.... What_ did_ he want to do?
55535How could one abandon a calling where fortune may change in a moment?
55535How did one"Get On"in the world?
55535How did one_ make_ people talk?
55535How old are you, Beaver?"
55535How?"
55535Humphrey had never said that he was a reporter: how did the policeman know?
55535I mean... would n''t the room be lighter without them?"
55535I shall be able to help you with your work,"he cried, buoyantly,"or will you drop it now?"
55535I''ve done it Will you go through the evening papers?
55535If only Daniel Quain had been there, with his world- wisdom and philosophy.... Tears, Humphrey?
55535Is it that nobleman who came here a few weeks ago?
55535Is it worth a contents bill?"
55535Is there any system in life?
55535It''s funny how few real, social friendships there are in the Street, is n''t it?
55535Let''s go and have supper at the Chariot d''Or.... Will you join us, Mr Quain?"
55535Married, is n''t he?"
55535Miss Filmer, her name was, was n''t it?"
55535Next to the Agency men they''re the most useful people in the world, eh, Beaver?...
55535Odd, is n''t it?
55535Of what avail would all their writing be, if it were not for the men and the machines below?
55535Off Southsea, eh?
55535Or, had there been nothing very special about the story after all, and was her letter merely a courtesy?
55535Or, was it that the vision of her, and the recollection of her earnest eyes, inspired him to better work?
55535Remember that time we had up in Chatsworth, when the Duke...?
55535See?"
55535Seen anything more of that fellow we met in Portsmouth on the Royal visit?...
55535Since that day when Humphrey had first met him in Ferrol''s room, and he had laughed and said,"You''re not a genius, are you?"
55535Tell us?"
55535Then there was always the question of the other correspondents of London newspapers: what were the other fellows sending?
55535Then you hear people saying,''How on earth did he come to marry her?''
55535There''s always room with us, ai n''t there, Tommy?"
55535There''s sure to be a ticket in your office, why do n''t you ask to do it?"
55535These children here will go through their school- days, and then-- what?
55535They soon find out that it''s better to let hubby do the reporting.... Hullo, young man Trinder, what do you want?"
55535They turned at Humphrey''s wavering"Excuse me....""Eh?"
55535Think you''ll be able to do as well as John K. Garton one day?"
55535This''ll be your first, wo n''t it?"
55535Unless what?
