19473O, Bobby, is it you? 19473 O, Bobby, what have you done?"
19473Of course?
19473Paid?
19473Pert?
19473Saucy, marm? 19473 Stopped him-- didn''t you?"
19473Tell me now; how much was it?
19473That was Tom with you-- wasn''t it?
19473The book business is good just now, is n''t it?
19473The squire?
19473Tom?
19473Travelled far to- day?
19473Was n''t I fishing with you?
19473Was n''t I with you?
19473Was you, though? 19473 We shall never forget you-- shall we, father?"
19473Well, Bobby, how is trade in the book line?
19473Well, Tom, where are you going?
19473Well, Tom?
19473Well, how did you like it?
19473Well, what of it?
19473Were you?
19473What are you going to do?
19473What are you stopping for, Bob?
19473What can you do?
19473What could I do? 19473 What did you hit me for, then?"
19473What do they fasten them with?
19473What do you mean by greeny?
19473What do you mean by sappy?
19473What do you mean by that, you young monkey?
19473What do you mean by that?
19473What do you mean by this?
19473What do you mean to do, Bob?
19473What do you pay for them?
19473What do your father and mother say?
19473What does mother say?
19473What doing?
19473What have you been doing?
19473What have you come back for, then?
19473What if I did? 19473 What is the matter with you, Tom?"
19473What is the price of it?
19473What is the price of these?
19473What is the use of having money if we ca n''t spend it? 19473 What of it?"
19473What of that?
19473What of that?
19473What the deuce does she mean by that?
19473What''s the matter?
19473When are you going again?
19473When did they agree to it?
19473Where are all these folks going to?
19473Where are we?
19473Where are you going now?
19473Where are you going, Tom?
19473Where are your books?
19473Where did you get them?
19473Where have you been travelling?
19473Who is going to know anything about it?
19473Who said she gave me_ ten_ dollars?
19473Who says I will?
19473Who told you so?
19473Who?
19473Why did n''t you speak of it then?
19473Why do n''t you set him to work, and make him earn something?
19473Why do you come back? 19473 Why not, as well as you?"
19473Why not?
19473Why should I give them a dollar for carrying me to Boston, when I can just as well walk? 19473 Why should I?"
19473Why, what can you do, Bobby?
19473Why, would n''t you? 19473 Will I?"
19473Will you clear out, or shall I kick you out?
19473Will you please to tell him that I want to see him about something very particular, when he gets back?
19473Will you? 19473 Wo n''t I?"
19473Wo n''t I?
19473Wo n''t mother''s eyes stick out when she sees these shiners? 19473 Wo n''t you let me go with you, Bob?"
19473Wo n''t you take one?
19473Wo n''t you?
19473Would n''t you?
19473Would they trust you?
19473Yes, Tom; you see, when I heard about your trouble, Squire Lee and myself----"Squire Lee? 19473 Yes, ha- ow do they dew?"
19473Yes; ai n''t you rather late?
19473You did n''t, though-- did you? 19473 You did?
19473You had to buy the books first-- didn''t you?
19473You have no money for me, marm?
19473You say you sold fifty books?
19473Your father and mother were willing you should come-- were they not?
19473Your mother?
19473And Annie Lee-- would she ever smile upon him again?
19473And you mean to keep it all yourself?"
19473Annie Lee here?
19473Are you an admirer of Moore?"
19473Books sell well there?"
19473But how came you here?"
19473But how do you like it?"
19473But where is Ellen Bayard?
19473But, I say, Bobby, where do you buy your books?"
19473But, Miss Annie, is your father at home?"
19473By the way, have you heard anything from him?"
19473Can I sell you a copy of''The Wayfarer''to- day?
19473Can you be ready for a start as early as that?"
19473Can you deny that?"
19473Could n''t help lying?"
19473Did n''t he tell the master you were whispering in school?"
19473Did you sell any?"
19473Do n''t I owe Squire Lee sixty dollars?"
19473Do n''t you believe I could do something in this line?"
19473Do you think I mean to rob you?"
19473Do you understand it?"
19473Does he know about it?"
19473Have you ever studied book- keeping?"
19473Have you got sick of the business?"
19473Have you money enough left to pay your employer?"
19473Have you sold out?"
19473His pardon?
19473How are all the folks up country?"
19473How are you?"
19473How did it happen?"
19473How much did you make?"
19473Is Mr. Bayard in?"
19473So you are selling books to help your mother?"
19473The lady was in danger; if the horse''s flight was not checked, she would be dashed in pieces; and what then could excuse him for neglecting his duty?
19473They cost you seventy cents each-- didn''t they?"
19473This was a concession, and our hero began to feel some sympathy for his companion-- as who does not when the erring confess their faults?
19473Timmins, what does this mean?"
19473Timmins?"
19473Was it possible?
19473What business has he to talk to_ my_ mother in that style?"
19473What do you mean by that, you young puppy?
19473What do you mean to do?"
19473What do you say?
19473What is your name, young man?"
19473What made him so?
19473What should he do?
19473What''s that to you?"
19473What''s the use of talking in that way?"
19473Where are you travelling?"
19473Where did you get the eight dollars?"
19473Where do you intend to go?"
19473Where is she?"
19473Where?"
19473Where_ did_ you get it, Bobby?"
19473Who is the liar now?"
19473Who was the fellow that wrote that song, mother?"
19473Who would have thought of such a thing?"
19473Why could n''t he do the same?
19473Why do n''t you go to work?"
19473Why do n''t you tell me, Bobby, what you have done?"
19473Why, where did you get all this money?"
19473Will you go?"
19473Would n''t you do as much as that for a fellow?"
19473Would not Mr. Bayard frown upon him?
19473Would not even Ellen be tempted to forget the service he had rendered her?
19473Would she welcome him to her father''s house so gladly as she had done in the past?
19473Yet what could he do?
19473You ai n''t afeard, are you?"
19473You do?"
19473You want the money to go into business with-- to buy your stock of books?"
19473as proud as you are bold?"
19473will you go with me or not?"
19473you stump me,--do you?"
34823What ratio can there be between a quantity and a desire, or even a desire combined with a power?
34823[ 110] Would the dodo- bones circulate? 34823 ( 2) Why should gold and silver have passed all rival commodities in the competition for employment as money? 34823 )[ 248] Are these figures valid? 34823 186 Meaning of distinction, and extent of qualification hard to determine: isnormal period"real period in time?
34823Above all, must the assumption involve the doubling of the price of gold bullion?
34823And do not goods vary greatly in the number of times they are exchanged?
34823And in what sense is even gold money physically of the same denomination with, say, wheat, or hay or base- ball tickets?
34823And is not the causal sequence precisely the reverse of that assigned by the quantity theory?
34823And was it a matter of no consequence that they had an abundant medium of exchange?
34823And were their banks of no assistance in getting the additional capital of various sorts?
34823And why have Americans, from the beginning, been constantly increasing commercial banks?
34823And will not the agio then, in a way, grow out of itself, a bigger agio appearing, because an agio has already appeared?
34823And will not this tend to divert labor and capital from the creation of a corresponding amount of more wholesome economic goods?
34823Are all the hundred share sales recorded?
34823Are insurance policies credit instruments?
34823Are not corporation securities essentially like_ Geldsurrogate_ from this angle?
34823Are rates going up?
34823Are the statements correct?
34823Are there not commonwealths where there is a ruling price for votes?
34823Are there not streets where woman''s virtue is sold?
34823As individualism spreads, and trade grows, will not more and more gold be taken to the mints?
34823Because they in turn can unload them on still others?
34823Behind the legal forms and the technical methods, what are the psychological forces at work?
34823But I raise this question: to what feature of our economic order do we chiefly owe it that we can make such abstractions?
34823But how can the other prices rise?
34823But how does one sum up_ pounds_ of_ sugar_,_ loaves_ of_ bread_,_ tons_ of_ coal_,_ yards_ of_ cloth_, etc.?
34823But how long is the"run"?
34823But how shall one undertake to give quantitative measure to such a thing as the educational influence of a tariff on silk manufacture?
34823But if a country is expanding its trade, does not money come in?
34823But is it not clear that this can not be the whole story?
34823But is not the causal process essentially the same if we substitute, say, the Southern States for our island, and cotton for our staple?
34823But is the price- level passive?
34823But now, can this rise sustain itself?
34823But second: in what sense is general purchasing power, money and money- funds, of the same denomination as a commodity?
34823But suppose that there is an agio from other causes, will not the legal tender aspect of money tend to increase it?
34823But what about value in a situation where there are differences in''purchasing power''?
34823But what does he mean by values in this connection?
34823But what is it in economic nature?
34823But what is meant by the utility of money as money?
34823But what of society?
34823But what of the cost of transition?
34823But which tendency will prevail?
34823But why would the others want them?
34823By virtue of what does friction disappear?
34823By what happy coincidence will these two tendencies work together?
34823CHAPTER VII DODO- BONES Must money have value from some source outside its money- functions?
34823CHAPTER XV THE QUANTITY THEORY: THE"PASSIVENESS OF PRICES"Is the price- level passive?
34823Can we bring all these into our scheme?
34823Can we similarly generalize dynamics?
34823Do banks tend to keep fixed ratios between deposits and reserves?
34823Do individuals, firms, and corporations tend to keep fixed ratios between their cash on hand and their balances in bank?
34823Do manufacturers''receipts from first sales belong in the wholesale deposits, or must they be counted as a separate item?
34823Do not the comparative rewards of occupations indicate what inducements will overcome the love of independence, of safety, of good repute?
34823Do the figures that get into the"all other"deposits from those connected with the Stock Exchange undercount sales made there?
34823Do these figures, therefore, represent the situation as it existed in 1909?
34823Does the legal tender aspect of coin count for more?
34823First, in what sense is there an equality between the ten pounds of sugar and the seventy cents?
34823For the present, the only question is, has this theory any application at all to the problem of the value of money?
34823How are these psychological forces modified by the technical forms and methods?
34823How assimilate the one situation to the other?
34823How can all this be, on the quantity theory?
34823How can he tell?
34823How can such labor be compared?
34823How construct intersecting curves, presenting a marginal equilibrium?
34823How describe the equilibrium between the value of gold as money and the value of gold in the arts?
34823How do these transactions affect Kinley''s figures for deposits, and so Fisher''s total of 387 billions?
34823How far can the total wealth of the country, agricultural as well as industrial, be brought into the circle of the money market?
34823How gauge the importance of a new advertising scheme, or a new invention?
34823How have a ratio between two things not of the same denomination?
34823How is such a general rise in prices possible, if the quantity theory be true?
34823How is the individual related to this objective social world?
34823How is this possible?
34823How long is a transition period?
34823How long is"transitional period"?
34823How measure the dynamic impetus of a new chain of banks on the industry and trade of the region affected?
34823How realistic is the notion of a transition period?
34823How reduce labor- cost and capital- cost to homogeneous terms?
34823How say, then, that labor alone governs value?
34823How shall we average labor time?
34823How shall we draw the distinction between the"money- rates"and the long time interest rate on"capital?"
34823How, then, bring the two together?
34823How, then, do we stand?
34823If stock exchange loans lose their liquidity, what of the rest of bank loans?
34823If the business cycle is the typical transition period, during which his normal theory does n''t hold, when does the normal theory hold?
34823In what sense are money and sugar homogeneous?
34823In what sense, then, are the sugar and the money equal?
34823Indeed, how shall we weigh the dynamic considerations at all?
34823Is an increase in credit an increase in values?
34823Is barter banished from the modern world, or does it remain reasonably possible, and, to a considerable degree, actual?
34823Is credit capital?
34823Is equation of exchange realistic?
34823Is it not decidedly too large?
34823Is it not true, then, that there is_ some_ sort of relation between gold production and world prices?
34823Is it realistic, or hypothetical?
34823Is it, for example, legitimate to assume an increase in M ´ apart from its usual accompaniment, an increase in PT?
34823Is it, however, in economic nature a different transaction from the original one in which he got the note from a borrower?
34823Is not money circulating rapidly, when business is active, and slowly when business is dull?
34823Is not the loan of stocks a real credit transaction?
34823Is not the new equilibrium stable?
34823Is not the velocity of circulation a highly flexible and variable average, a_ cause_ of nothing, and an index of business activity?
34823Is not this a rise in general prices from causes outside the equation of exchange?
34823Is not this the truth?
34823Is the answer seventy pounds of sugar, or seventy cents, or some new two- dimensional hybrid?
34823Is the equation of exchange still valid?
34823Is the equation of exchange, too, a mere hypothesis?
34823Is the normal period a real period in time, or is it merely a theoretical hypothesis?
34823Is the transition period a theoretical device, to aid in isolating causes, or is it supposed to be a real period in time?
34823Is there any commercial paper in this last, not inconsiderable, item?
34823Is there any reason for limiting the equation at all?
34823Is there anything else to be said?
34823Is there not at once an incentive to extend credit?
34823Is this assumption true?
34823Is, however, the figure for 1909, 387 billions, an acceptable figure?
34823Is, then, the contrast between a realistic"transition period"and a hypothetical"normal period"or are both hypothetical?
34823Must the average of prices be a passive function of M, the V''s, M ´ and T?
34823Must this old issue be fought all over again?
34823Now do clearings exceed check deposits in New York City?
34823Now what difference would be made if we wiped out all these draft transactions, and reduced clearings to correspond?
34823Or could you even have any value left at all?
34823Or has our generalization of statics merely narrowed the field of dynamic considerations?
34823Or what is the causal relation between them?
34823Or, better, perhaps, are not the V''s and T both governed, in large degree, by more fundamental causes which are largely the same for both?
34823Precisely what is the distinction between"transition periods"and"normal periods"?
34823Shall we exclude contracts where the payment of money is made contingent on anything?
34823Shall we, however, limit credit transactions to cases where a stipulated_ amount_ of money is named in the contract, for a stipulated time?
34823There are two main questions with which the chapter is concerned:( 1) How did money come to be?
34823They needed more tools and live- stock, doubtless, but is that the whole story?
34823To what extent are the loans of this type to farmers liquid?
34823We return, then, to the question with which we set out: in what sense is there an equality between the two sides of Professor Fisher''s equation?
34823Well, what can bring it down?
34823What are the causes controlling the_ mutations_ of values?
34823What are the economic differences between long and short time loans?
34823What brings about the crash in economic values( and consequently in prices), in panics and crises?
34823What can the 245 billions represent?
34823What causes are_ likely_ to produce changes in market prices?
34823What could bring about such a system of social relations that a general expectation of this sort could arise?
34823What did it do with the 85% of the stocks in hundred share lots offered for clearing?
34823What difference is made by the money market?
34823What difference is made in values and prices by lending and borrowing?
34823What do its millions do for a living?
34823What do such loans mean?
34823What do these payments represent?
34823What does it mean to_ multiply_ ten pounds of sugar by seven cents?
34823What economic force is there, then, to make them circulate?
34823What else can fall?
34823What else can take place?
34823What else is there?
34823What factors cause values to rise, intensifying economic activity, stimulating trade, spreading prosperity?
34823What figures are relevant when we wish to compare foreign and domestic trade?
34823What force would there be to withdraw gold from the arts at all?
34823What is a theory of money worth which can offer no explanation of so fundamental, important, and notorious a feature of modern money and banking?
34823What is the essential causation in the matter?
34823What is the other eight- elevenths, represented by the"all other deposits"?
34823What is the relation between Kinley''s"deposits"and Wolfe''s"total transactions"?
34823What is the relation between these two sets of factors?
34823What is the significance of this?
34823What is there to cause them to do so?
34823What kinds of lending and borrowing are there?
34823What limitations and qualifications does he admit to the rigorous statement of his theory so far given?
34823What might then be expected to happen in such a country, if an economic experimenter should disturb them in their habitual quantity of money?
34823What motive would a speculator have for taking the Greenbacks out of circulation, and hoarding them?
34823What of endowment policies?
34823What of such paper in the country districts?
34823What of the general average of prices, the price-_level_?
34823What of the general price- level?
34823What of the values of instrumental goods, of goods of"higher orders,"of labor, of stocks and bonds, of lands, of franchise rights and good will?
34823What prices can fall?
34823What shall we say of bank- notes, of bank- deposits, of bills of exchange?
34823What shall we say of"borrowing and carrying"transactions on the stock exchange?
34823What sort of product results?
34823What sorts of credit are appropriate to commerce, to manufacturing, to agriculture?
34823What theory of money would deny it?
34823What were the"all other deposits"made in New York City?
34823What, however, shall we say of M´V ´ for other years?
34823What, then, is T?
34823What, then, shall we say of static theory which seeks to explain the work of money and credit?
34823What, then, shall we say of the way in which the forces drawing gold from the arts into money manifest themselves?
34823When are the"normal periods"?
34823Where are the markets which measure its fluctuations?
34823Where does one find barter?
34823Where is a real difference to be found?
34823Where, among these items, does one find"commercial paper"?
34823Which habits would give way, those relating to prices, or those to velocities, or those relating to quantities of goods exchanged?
34823Which theory is true?
34823Why can some things serve as collateral in the money market when others can not?
34823Why does seed- corn sprout?
34823Why does the sun rise?
34823Why is this?
34823Why not postal money- orders, why not deposits subject to transfer by the giro- system?
34823Why should A_ suppose_ that B will take them?
34823Why should a man borrow?
34823Why should more rather than less be withdrawn?
34823Why should not book- credits, and bills of exchange be included?
34823Why should there be such a general practice regarding metal disks or pieces of paper?
34823Why the low values of the period of depression, giving slight stimulus to industry and trade, leaving economic life lethargic, inert?
34823Why then, will any of the traders give up his valuable commodities for the worthless dodo- bones?
34823Will not men demand coin, which bears an agio, rather than bullion, when they have the right to demand either?
34823Will not the economic values which have been destroyed in this moral fervor be recreated?
34823Will not the prices of Riverside palaces and steam yachts sink and the prices of things which the poor esteem rise?
34823Will there be compensating reductions in the prices of other things to leave the price- level unchanged?
34823Will there not be, none the less, a radical readjustment of prices?
34823Will they go any lower than the old level?
34823Will this be a rise in the price- level?
34823Will you say that he will take them, not because he wants them himself, but because he knows that others will take them from him?
34823Would it make a difference where coinage is restricted?
34823Would not the capitalization theory apply in the Greenback Period?
34823Would not the"balance of trade"tend to turn against us, so that gold would tend to leave the country, and the supply of money be reduced?
34823Would prices rise thus, or would they be held down in some way by the limitations on the quantity of money?
34823[ 117] If money originated in a commodity, how is it possible for the commodity value to be withdrawn, and for money still to retain its value?
34823[ 315] Will expanding trade in a country increase credit?
34823[ 576] How is it possible to give proper weight to considerations drawn from such divergent spheres of thought?

35120A bill drawn in New York on France, on a bank, for instance, the Crédit Lyonnais, at Paris, and accepted by it, would it be admissible for discount?
35120A hundred people are talked about, and a thousand think--"Am I talked about, or am I not?"
35120A large percentage of the stock exchange business is really handled through the incorporated banks, is it not?
35120A large percentage of your funds is loaned on the stock exchange?

35120Would not her currency become relatively excessive compared with that of other countries?
35120Would the bank discount a bill drawn by one merchant and accepted by another?
35120Would you charge a merchant house having a good account with you the bank rate or the market rate for prime bills?
35120Would you consider the issue of taxed notes by the Reichsbank in a sense an evidence of an abnormal condition?
35120Would you say that the Bank of England is a popular banking institution among other banks in England?
35120Would you say that the public are better served through these branches than they were through the independent banks?
35120Would you say the Bank of England is in any way a competitor of the other banks in England?
35120You all go to the Reichsbank to clear?
35120You always require two names?
35120You are not restricted by law in doing any business you please?
35120You are not restricted in any way as to the character of the undertakings you may make?
35120You are not under government supervision or examination?
35120You are the leading bank in that business in France?
35120You do considerable rediscounting of bills, I take it?
35120You do not consider the Bank of France as an active competitor?
35120You do not then endeavor to acquire a country business through your branches?
35120You do not, as a rule, invest in mortgages?
35120You frequently act as managers of syndicates which might include the other banks of France?
35120You have a considerable foreign business?
35120You have branches, have you not?
35120You have current accounts--190,000,000 francs?
35120You have no new banks except the Union Parisienne?
35120You have not been in the habit of buying up other banks?
35120You have, I believe, no requirement of law by which the Bank of France is obliged to purchase gold at a certain fixed price?
35120You have, I suppose, in the branches regular clients who have an account with you?
35120You mean that the Deutsche Bank has fifty men, members of the stock exchange, who trade there on the floor?
35120You purchase no bills and do no commercial business whatever?
35120You regard your item"Bills discounted"as one of practical reserve?
35120You take mortgages on private estates?
35120Your acceptance constitutes what is known in London as a prime bill?
35120Your bank is organised under the General Companies Acts as are all joint stock banks in England?
35120Your capital stock is £ 100 authorised, £ 15 paid?
35120Your organisation is quite unique in the world, is it not?
35120Your relations with the Bank of France are very intimate and cordial, are they not?

13997And you are willing, if he does n''t care?
13997Anybody else?
13997Are n''t these almost too exquisite? 13997 Are you too tired to walk home?"
13997Better-- how?
13997But do you_ care_?
13997But how can you live_ without_ wearing?
13997But is n''t it scene and costume, a good deal of it, without the play? 13997 But the change again, if she should have to make it?"
13997But then?
13997But what_ is_ she? 13997 But where are your common things?"
13997Can I help you? 13997 Come and_ live_?"
13997Desire?
13997Do n''t it appear to you it''s a kind of a stump? 13997 Do n''t you remember?
13997Do n''t you think it''s expected that we should do something with the corners? 13997 Do n''t you want to come and swing?"
13997Do they? 13997 Do you feel any better?"
13997Do you know what Hazel Ripwinkley is doing? 13997 Do you know what that''s a sign of, you children?"
13997Do you mean, Ruthie, that you and I might go and_ live_ in such places? 13997 Do you s''pose ma''ll think of that?"
13997Do you s''pose we did it?
13997Do you think you could be contented to come and live with me?
13997Do you think, Luclarion,said Desire, feebly, as Luclarion came to take away her bowl of chicken broth,--"that it is my_ duty_ to go with mamma?"
13997Does it? 13997 Eh?"
13997Get anything by that?
13997Good woman? 13997 Has he got a flag out there?"
13997Have you come to_ stay_?
13997Have you had a good time?
13997How can I say''we,''then?
13997How can I tell?
13997How can you, Helena?
13997How did it work when it came to you?
13997How do you feel?
13997How do you know about sea- shores and pine forests?
13997How do you?
13997How does she know?
13997How far does Miss Waite''s ground run along the river?
13997How is it that things always fall right together for you, so? 13997 How much will it cost?"
13997How was it, Aleck?
13997Hungry and restless; that''s what we all are,said Rachel Froke,"until"--"Well,--until?"
13997I do n''t see,--Mrs. Marchbanks ought to have some of this coffee, but where is your good woman gone?
13997I teach? 13997 Is it slang?
13997Is n''t it a responsibility,Frank ventured,"to think what we shall contrive_ for_?"
13997It looks like it, sometimes; who can tell?
13997It''s the same thing, mother,she would say,"is n''t it, now?
13997Jesus Christ, God''s Heart of Love toward man? 13997 Miss Craydocke, of Orchard Street?
13997Miss Craydocke,said Hazel,"how did you begin your beehive?"
13997Must I go to Europe with my mother?
13997Never knew that was what it meant? 13997 Next of kin?"
13997Not been to church to- day?
13997Now, ma''am, did you ever know me to go off on a tangent, without some sort of a string to hold on to? 13997 Now, tell me, truly, uncle, should you object?
13997O, my dear, do n''t I tell you continually, you have n''t waked up yet? 13997 O, why_ ca n''t_ they?"
13997Only,said Hazel, to whom something else had just occurred,"would n''t he think-- wouldn''t it be--_your_ business?"
13997Real Westover summum- bonum cake?
13997Should what?
13997Stay behind? 13997 Suppose you ask him, Hazel?"
13997That same little old story? 13997 That will clothe you,--without much fuss and feathers?"
13997The Syphon?
13997The angels in heaven know; why should n''t you?
13997The same old way?
13997The world?
13997There is something-- isn''t there-- about those who_ attain_ to that resurrection; those who are_ worthy_? 13997 They''re the things I wear; why should n''t I?"
13997Twice a day I have to do myself up somehow, and why should n''t it be as well as I can? 13997 Was there ever anything restless in your life, Miss Craydocke?
13997We have engaged the young woman: the doctor quite approves; she will return without delay, I hope?
13997Well, I suppose it''s worth while to have a lame girl to sit up in a round chair, and look like a lily in a vase, is it?
13997Well, if everybody is upside down, there''s a view of it that makes it all right side up, is n''t there? 13997 Well, then, how did you_ let_ it begin?"
13997Well,--do you feel''obligated,''as Luclarion says?'' 13997 Well?"
13997Well?
13997Well?
13997Well?
13997What do you mean by that second person plural, eh? 13997 What do you mean?"
13997What do you suppose would happen then?
13997What do you think Rosamond says?
13997What do you think you and I ought to do, one of these days, Ruthie? 13997 What does it mean, mother?"
13997What have you thought, Luclarion? 13997 What is his name?"
13997What is it all for?
13997What is it, mother?
13997What is it? 13997 What is the delay?"
13997What is the matter?
13997What makes you suppose that that would be a trouble to me?
13997What now?
13997What old lady, mamma, away up in Hanover?
13997What other things?
13997What was it, then?
13997What''s the matter?
13997What, Luclarion?
13997What?
13997When they give me a piece of their luncheon, or when they walk home from school, or when they say they will come in a little while?
13997Where are they?
13997Where did you get hold of that?
13997Where is Luclarion?
13997Where must I stop?
13997Where was you when it tumbled?
13997Where''s my poker?
13997Where''s your empty box, now?
13997Where_ will_ you wear that, up here?
13997Who knows when they began?
13997Who''s Sulie Praile?
13997Who?
13997Why do n''t you ask them to help you hunt up old Noah, and all get back into the ark, pigeons and all?
13997Why does n''t everbody have an old house, and let the squirrels in?
13997Why does thee ask me, Desire?
13997Why must everything_ look_ somehow?
13997Why need all the good be done up in batches, I wonder? 13997 Why not?
13997Why what is that? 13997 Why what, dear?"
13997Why_ do n''t_ you put your old brown things all together in an up- stairs room, and call it Mile Hill? 13997 Will she call me Daisy?"
13997Will you have some more?
13997Will you let me go?
13997Wo n''t you?
13997Would it signify if she thought you called me Daisy?
13997Would n''t it be rather an aggravation? 13997 Would n''t it do to put in this laurel bush next, with the bird''s nest in it?"
13997Would that interfere?
13997You ai n''t mad with me, be you?
13997You called about the nurse, I conclude, Miss-- Holabird?
13997You see it_ was_ rather an awful question,--''What do you want most?'' 13997 You would n''t want to be brought up in a platoon, Hazel?"
13997_ Guess_? 13997 _ One_ taken?
13997_ Slang_?
13997_ Why_ do you hate the thought of going to Europe?
13997_ Your_ money?
13997''How wags the world?''
13997''I suppose you have been shopping?''
13997''Why reason ye because ye have no bread?
13997--Shall I go on with all this stuff, Or do you think it is enough?
13997A Sermon means a Word; why do n''t they just say the word, and let it go?"
13997About taking away the sins,--do you think?"
13997After all that had happened,--everything so changed,--half her family abroad,--what could she do?
13997All alone?
13997And Desire?
13997And Mr. Geoffrey read,--"''What is your favorite color?''
13997And a''flying circle''in the middle?
13997And all Helena''s education to provide for, and everything so cheap and easy there, and so dear and difficult here?
13997And are novels to be pictures of human experience, or not?
13997And besides, ca n''t I see daily just how your nature draws and points?"
13997And could half as much sympathy be evolved from a straight line?"
13997And how is my money going to work on?"
13997And how long did it take to overlive it?
13997And now they would go back to tea, and eat up the brown cake?
13997And the face that could be simply merry, telling such a tale as that,--what sort of bright little immortality must it be the outlook of?
13997And the most beautiful things do not speak from the outside, do they?
13997And to do only a little, in an easy way, when we are made so strong to do; would n''t it be a waste of power, and a missing of the meaning?
13997And what Luclarion Grapp has done?
13997And what business has the printer, whom the next man will pay to advertise his loss, to help on a lie like this beforehand?
13997And what can I do?
13997And where do you live?"
13997Are girls ever too tired to walk home after a picnic, when the best of the picnic is going to walk home with them?
13997Are you shirking your responsibilities, or are you addressing your imaginary Boffinses?
13997At last,--"You are fond of scenery, Miss Holabird?"
13997Besides, she would eat some of the berry- cake when it was made; was n''t that worth while?
13997Besides, what would he know about two young girls?
13997Black or white?
13997But brooms, and pails, and wash- tubs, and the back stairs?"
13997But do you suppose he did n''t know?
13997But it_ was_ a stump, was n''t it?"
13997But then, it had been for their good; how could she have imagined?
13997But what should they say; and would it be at all proper that they should be surprised?
13997But why will people do such things?
13997But you''ve got God''s daily bread in your hand; how can you talk devil''s Dutch over it?"
13997But, O dear what did it?
13997Clouds, trees, faces,--do they ever look twice the same?"
13997Come, Mr. Oldways, Mr. Geoffrey, wo n''t you try''Crambo?''
13997Could n''t Mr. Gallilee put up a swing?
13997Could you begin the world with me, Rosamond?"
13997Cutting out was nice, of course; who does n''t like cutting out pictures?
13997Diana''s a dear, and Hazel''s a duck, besides being my cousins; why should n''t I?
13997Did she send you here to ask me?"
13997Do n''t go for callin''me Dam, now; the boys did that in my last place, an''I left, don''yer see?
13997Do n''t you feel like foolish virgins, Flo and Nag?
13997Do n''t you have ghosts, or robbers, or something, up and down those stairs, Miss Waite?"
13997Do n''t you miss that?"
13997Do n''t you remember in that book of the''New England Housekeeper,''that you used to have, what the woman said about the human nature of the beans?
13997Do n''t you remember the brown cupboard in Aunt Oldways''kitchen, how sagey, and doughnutty, and good it always smelt?
13997Do n''t you see?
13997Do n''t you think Miss Waite would like to sell?"
13997Do n''t you think people almost always live out their names?
13997Do n''t you think that''s nice of him?"
13997Do you draw?
13997Do you know how large a part of life, even young life, is made of the days that have never been lived?
13997Do you know how strange it is,--how almost impracticable,--that it is not even safe?"
13997Do you know things puzzle me a little, Kenneth?
13997Do you know when we rubbed our new shoes with pounded stone and made them gray?
13997Do you think I could take you there?"
13997Do you think I have passed her over lightly in her troubles?
13997Does it crowd you any to have Sulie and Vash there, and to have us''took up''with them, as Luclarion says?"
13997Does it mean so in the other place?
13997Does n''t it just make out?"
13997Does n''t she want you to go?"
13997Does n''t that sound like thousands of them, all fresh and rustling?
13997Does nothing come to thee?"
13997Does that do it?"
13997Does thee get no word when thee goes to church?
13997Except just_ that_ that the little children_ were_, underneath, when the Lord let them-- He knows why-- be born so?
13997For how_ should_ they outgrow it?
13997For was not she a mother, testing the world''s chalice for her children?
13997Froke, when does He give it out?
13997Froke?"
13997From four till half- past eight, with games, and tea at six, and the fathers looking in?"
13997Gone?"
13997Has n''t anybody got to contrive anything more?
13997Have n''t you calculated?"
13997Hazel danced up to Desire:--"O,_ do_ you know the Muffin Man, The Muffin Man, the Muffin Man?
13997He could do as he pleased; was he not Sir Archibald?
13997How came you to?"
13997How came you to?"
13997How can we set aside his ways until He clearly points us out his own exception?"
13997How could she bring news of others''gladness into that dim and sorrowful house?
13997How could she help her words, hearing nothing but devil''s Dutch around her all the time?
13997How do I know this money would be well in their hands-- even for themselves?"
13997How else could she establish any relations between herself and them, or get any permanent hold or access?
13997How is it that ye do not understand?''"
13997How much money have you got?"
13997How shall I know?"
13997How will you get home, Mrs. Froke?
13997How?"
13997How_ came_ Damaris to come along?"
13997I do n''t suppose you would mean to stay altogether?"
13997I might learn A, and teach them that; but how do I know I shall ever learn B, myself?"
13997I s''pose''twould take a fortnight, maybe?"
13997I suppose there must be some who are just born to this world, then, and never--''born again?''"
13997I wonder whether she gives or takes?"
13997I wonder why, when they''ve got old, and ought to?
13997In one corner of the chimney leaned an iron bar, used sometimes in some forgotten, old fashioned way, across dogs or pothooks,--who knows now?
13997In the great Ledger of God will it always stand unbalanced on the debit side?
13997Is it all finished now?
13997Is it not a partaking of the heavenly Marriage Supper?
13997Is it the stillness?
13997Is n''t he one?"
13997Is n''t it the''much''that is required of us, Dakie?"
13997Is n''t it?"
13997Is n''t that a horseshoe?
13997Is n''t that the special pleasantness of making cakes where little children are?
13997Is n''t that true?
13997Is not this that she is growing to inwardly, more blessed than any marriage or giving in marriage?
13997Is that end and moral enough for a two years''watchful trial and a two years''simple tale?
13997Is there a sin in that?"
13997It may be that I do n''t understand, because I have not got into the heart of your city life; but what comes of the parties, for instance?
13997It was all over; and now, what should they do?
13997Kincaid?"
13997Kincaid?"
13997Luclarion, have n''t you got a great big empty room up at the top of the house?"
13997May I go, mother?
13997Might she not find him there; might they not silently and spiritually, without sign, but needing no sign, begin to understand each other now?
13997Mother,"she asked rather suddenly,"do you think Uncle Oldways feels as if we ought n''t to do-- other things-- with his money?"
13997Mr. Oldways''saying came back into Mrs. Froke''s mind:--"Have n''t you got any light, Rachel, that might shine a little for that child?"
13997Mrs. Ripwinkley did not complain; it was only her end of the"stump;"why should she expect to have a Luclarion Grapp to serve her all her life?
13997Mrs. Ripwinkley looked up in utter surprise; what else could she do?
13997Much?
13997Must we never, in this life, gather round us the utmost that the world is capable of furnishing?
13997Must we never, out of this big creation, have the piece to ourselves, each one as he would choose?"
13997Never mind; I''ll fetch thee more to- morrow; and thee''ll let the vase go for a while?
13997Not go to Europe?
13997Now that we have hit upon this metaphor, is n''t it funny that our little social experiment should have taken the shape of a horseshoe?"
13997Now what''ll you do?"
13997Now, do n''t you suppose I ought to go?"
13997O,_ do n''t_ you remember, Laura?
13997O,_ do_ you know the Muffin Man That lives in Drury Lane?"
13997Of all my poor father''s work, what is there to show for it now?
13997Once a month, in church, they have the bread and the wine?
13997Or do you think I am making her out to have herself passed over them lightly?
13997Or flowers?
13997Or wo n''t you have to stay, too?"
13997Poh?
13997Ripwinkley?"
13997Ripwinkley?"
13997Ripwinkley?"
13997S''posin''we''d jumped in the kitchen, or-- the-- flat- irons had tumbled down,--or anything?
13997Scherman?"
13997She asked her mother one night, if she did n''t think they might begin their beehive with a fire- fly?
13997She ought to have known her father better; his life ought to have been more to her; was it her fault, or, harder yet, had it been his?
13997She went away back, strangely, and asked whether she had had any business to be born?
13997Should you take it at all hard?
13997Since why?
13997So he said, smiling,--"And who knows what the''everything''may be?"
13997So, they were to be separated?
13997Tea parties?"
13997That was the first thing ever we learnt, was n''t it, Dine?
13997The new, fresh word, with the leaven in it?
13997The old lady is satisfied; and away up there in Hanover, what can it signify to her?
13997The people who lived there called it East Square; but what difference did that make?
13997Then Hazel wished they could be put into clean clothes each time; would n''t it do, somehow?
13997Then Kenneth Kincaid said,--"Miss Desire, why wo n''t you come and teach in the Mission School?"
13997Then she added,--for her little witch- stick felt spiritually the quality of what she spoke to,--"Wouldn''t Mr. Geoffrey come for Ada in the evening?"
13997There was Uncle Titus; who knew but it was the Oldways streak in him after all?
13997There was nothing really rude in it; she was there on business; what more could she expect?
13997There were chances,--don''t you think so?"
13997They are friends of yours?"
13997They?
13997This terrible"why should it be?"
13997To find out what one thinks about things, is pretty much the whole finding, is n''t it?"
13997Uncle Titus wanted to know"what sort of use a thing like that could be in a house?"
13997Uncle Titus, do you mind how we fill it up,--because you gave it to us, you know?"
13997Was it going aside in search of an undertaking that did not belong to her?
13997Was n''t that being good for anything, while berry- cake was making?
13997Was not the real family just beginning to be born into the real home?
13997Was this caring?
13997Well?"
13997Were all the mistakes-- the sins, even-- for the very sake of the pure blessedness and the more perfect knowledge of the setting right?
13997What are our artistic perceptions given to us for, unless we''re to make the best of ourselves in the first place?"
13997What are shirts made for?"
13997What did she care for the hiss and the bubble, if they came?
13997What did you do?
13997What did you mean?"
13997What difference did it make?
13997What do you suppose the resurrection was, or is?"
13997What do you suppose they''re letting us stay at home from school for?"
13997What else can it mean?
13997What had the word of the Spirit been to Rachel Froke this day?
13997What has that to do with it?"
13997What if he should die pretty soon?
13997What is the reason I ca n''t?
13997What is the use of asking?
13997What is there left of all we have ever tried to do, all these years?
13997What is there more about it?
13997What kind?"
13997What made Rosamond so wise about knowing and belonging?
13997What makes us have to mind it so?"
13997What matters a little pain, outside?
13997What other way would there be?
13997What was one hour at a time, once or twice a week, to do against all this?
13997What was the use of"looking,"unless things were looked at?
13997What was two thousand a year, now- a- days?
13997What was wrong, and how far back?
13997What were houses for?
13997What were the spare places made for?
13997What will come of it all, as the pretenses multiply?
13997What wonder that this stood in her way, for very pleasantness, when Kenneth asked her to come and teach in the school?
13997What would you do?"
13997What''s the use?
13997What''s''next year?''
13997When there could be so much visiting, and spare rooms kept always in everybody''s house, why should not somebody who needed to, just come in and stay?
13997When they got out upon the sidewalk, Kenneth Kincaid asked,"Was it one of the morsels that may be shared, Miss Desire?
13997Where are the children, do you suppose, you dear old Frau Van Winkle, that would come to such a party now?"
13997Where did you get such pictures, Miss Hazel?"
13997Where do you keep all your noise and your breath?
13997Where''s the difference?"
13997Where?"
13997Whether it were a piece of God''s truth at all, that she and all of them should be, and call themselves a household,--a home?
13997Who are all a mistake in the world, and have nothing to do with its meaning?
13997Who does, or_ do n''t_ look after you?"
13997Who ever suspected_ that_ of you?"
13997Who knows what would come of it?
13997Who should write to Mrs. Ripwinkley, after all these years, from Boston?
13997Who was taking care of their father?
13997Why ca n''t I live something out for myself, and have a place of my own?
13997Why ca n''t it be spread round, a little more even?
13997Why could n''t they keep little Vash?
13997Why do n''t they keep a little way off from each other in cities, and so have room for apple trees?
13997Why do n''t you put your flowers in the window, Hazel?"
13997Why does n''t somebody stop?"
13997Why need people dispute about Eternity and Divinity, if they can only see that?--Was that Mrs. Froke''s reading?"
13997Why ought n''t there to be_ little_ homes, done- by- hand homes, for all these little children, instead of-- well-- machining them all up together?"
13997Why should Desire feel cross?
13997Why should I set up to fetch and carry?"
13997Why should I, any more than a boy?
13997Why should anybody in particular be thanked, as if anybody in particular had asked for anything?
13997Why should n''t somebody do it, just to show how good it is?"
13997Why should not Mrs. Ledwith and the others come and join them?
13997Why should they?
13997Why was she left out,--forgotten?
13997Why was there nothing, very much, in any of this, for her?
13997Why will you torment yourself so?"
13997Why, that is, if religion stand for the relation of things to spirit, which I suppose it should?
13997Why, where_ could_ you stay?
13997Why?
13997Why?
13997Will she put it on the ice for to- morrow?"
13997Will there be always pennies for every little broom?
13997Will this be lost in the world?
13997Will two, and three, and six sweeps be tolerated between side and side?
13997Will you bring her here, Hazel?"
13997Will you come up here, and see me in my room?
13997Wo n''t you ever be tired of it,--you great girls?"
13997Wo n''t you-- can''t you-- be my wife, Rosamond?
13997Work?
13997Would it not be more prudent to join them, than to set up a home again without them, and keep them out there?
13997Would n''t he like it if we turned his house into a Beehive?"
13997Would n''t you like to come and see?"
13997Would she go and live among them, in one of these little new, primitive homes, planted down in the pasture- land, on the outskirts?
13997Would she-- the pretty, graceful, elegant Rosamond-- live semi- detached with old Miss Arabel Waite?
13997Would you care if it was turned quite into a Beehive, finally?"
13997You ca n''t make the world over, with''why don''ts?''"
13997You could keep it for old times''sake, and sit there mornings; the house is big enough; and then have furniture like other people''s in the parlor?"
13997You do n''t take it in away down under your belt, do you?
13997You girls, with feet and hands of your own?
13997You never ate any of my top- overs?
13997You''d like to come and take tea with me, would n''t you, Aunt Frank?"
13997You''re great, are n''t you?
13997_ Is n''t_ anything actually pretty in itself, or ca n''t they settle what it is?
13997_ Would_ not life touch her?
13997came up the pleasant tones of Mrs. Oldways from behind,"how can they help it?
13997do you remember the dear little parties our mother used to make for us?
13997or eyes?
13997or gems?
13997or gowns?
13997or in sunset skies?
13997there were some little children taken away from you before we came, you know?
13997to the hindrance of the next man who may have a real wolf to catch?
13997what_ did_ she mean?"
13997who wants to be waited on, here?
21043''Cos if you do, they do say as a charcoal fire--"Will you go?
21043''Ow long is it they''ve got? 21043 ''Ullo, Esquire,''ow are you, Esquire?
21043A company?
21043A meeting of directors of the Select Agency Corporation--by the way, was it"Limited"?
21043A what?
21043A young puppy under me at the_ Rocket_?
21043After all,thought he to himself,"what''s the use of being particular?
21043Ah, Cruden, that you? 21043 Ai n''t got no envellups to lick, then?"
21043Ai n''t this room big enough for yer?
21043All right?
21043All right?
21043And ai n''t babies childer?
21043And could n''t you have said so at first?
21043And has it recovered?
21043And have you had many orders?
21043And he does n''t know yet?
21043And how do you sell them? 21043 And how old is the babies, ma?"
21043And left nothing for yourself when it was done? 21043 And then you''ll tell him?"
21043And were all the applicants clergymen like myself?
21043And what became of him?
21043And what made you think you would suit us?
21043And what name and address?
21043And what''s the next job to be, then?
21043And whatever does the Corporation do? 21043 And who told you''e was a good, brave boy?
21043And you ai n''t a- goin''to commit soosanside while I''m gone, are yer?
21043And you suppose I''ve come all the way from Dorsetshire to get that for an answer, do you? 21043 And_ she_, of course she''s quite knocked up?"
21043Another of whom?
21043Any acid- drops?
21043Any brandy- balls?
21043Any more about them, ma?
21043Any news from Liverpool?
21043Any of the suits? 21043 Anything else?
21043Are I? 21043 Are they very private?"
21043Are you comfortable?
21043Are you going off, or must I make you?
21043Are you here alone?
21043Are you hurt, old man?
21043Are you hurt?
21043Are you hurt?
21043Are you? 21043 Awfully hot that brother of yours make?
21043Better if he was dead? 21043 Blandford here works like a nigger to spend his money, do n''t you, old man?"
21043But surely you wo n''t accept it, then?
21043But what does he do now?
21043But who are your letters from?
21043But who''s your letter from, Reg?
21043But, Reg,said the latter,"surely it means you''d have to go to Liverpool?"
21043By the way,said Sam, as he was going off with the paper,"there was a fellow at your office, what was his name, now-- Crowder, Crundell?
21043Can I see him?
21043Can you give me no medicine for him, or tell me what food he ought to take or what? 21043 Can you read writing?"
21043Can you tell me his name, or anything about him? 21043 Capital fellow, with plenty of capital, eh?"
21043Chuck these here inside yer; do you''ear?
21043Come out of it, do you hear me? 21043 Could I-- can you show me one?"
21043Could n''t he have waited till after to- morrow?
21043Could n''t we get into something else?
21043Could we do any of it down here?
21043Cruden, old man, will you shake hands? 21043 Did I, though?
21043Did any doctor see him?
21043Did he die in debt? 21043 Did n''t I tell you to shut up?"
21043Did you ever see the like of that? 21043 Do I know?
21043Do n''t do nothink to me this time, gov''nor,whimpered he, as he got within arm''s length;"let us off, do you hear?
21043Do n''t you know his name?
21043Do n''t you think she''s nice?
21043Do you always go to the post with the letters?
21043Do you dream all these things,he said,"or how do you ever think of them?"
21043Do you ever see any addressed to Mrs Cruden or Mr Cruden in London?
21043Do you hear? 21043 Do you hear?"
21043Do you hear?
21043Do you know any of them?
21043Do you know them?
21043Do you know where the lower- case` x''is now, eh?
21043Do you know, Mr Booms?
21043Do you know, young''un, I''m hungry; are you?
21043Do you mean in the literary work?
21043Do you mean to say a lot of the circulars have been sent already?
21043Do you mean to say you intend to stick to that sort of thing all your life?
21043Do you mean to say,said Horace, slowly, like one waking from a dream,"do you mean to say we are ruined, Mr Richmond?"
21043Do you mean we are to be workmen, Mr Richmond? 21043 Do you mind getting a hansom?"
21043Do you stay here all night?
21043Do you think you can get on if I leave you a bit? 21043 Do you want me to try?"
21043Do you''ear? 21043 Do you?"
21043Do? 21043 Do_ you_ know what they were?"
21043Does he help himself to any of the money?
21043Done what?
21043Dull Street? 21043 Durfy''s instructions?
21043Durfy,said the manager, wrathfully,"what do you mean by having this room in such a filthy mess?
21043Eh? 21043 Eh?
21043Eh? 21043 Eh?"
21043Eh?
21043Excuse me,said he, in his politest tones,"would you mind directing us to the composing- room?
21043Gedge is not going with you,said Reginald, keeping the boy''s arm in his;"he''s coming with me, are n''t you, young''un?"
21043Going home?
21043Going with you, indeed?
21043Got any browns?
21043Got any lollipops in those bottles?
21043Gov''nor, you there?
21043Gov''nor,said the weak little voice from the bed,"that there doctor says I are a- goin''to die, do n''t he?"
21043Governor''s out, then?
21043Had we better ask in the shop? 21043 Harker and I were new boys once, were n''t we, Harker?"
21043Has Mr Horace started to the office?
21043Has anything happened to him? 21043 Has he left any message?"
21043Has the case of Cruden come on yet?
21043Has the football club been doing well again?
21043Have you been in the printing trade long?
21043He does remember my name, then?
21043He''s dead then?
21043He''s not likely to have gone home?
21043Her? 21043 Hold him fast, will you?
21043Horrors,said Reg,"what''s to be done about the_ Rocket_?
21043How are you, Mr Medlock?
21043How can I help it, when it''s your own secretary is dogging me?
21043How can I keep it a secret and break it to him?
21043How could I tell him? 21043 How could he with no money?"
21043How do I know what you are talking about?
21043How much?
21043How soon could I have one?
21043How would you like to know your precious Reginald was this moment in prison?
21043How?
21043How_ do_ I know?
21043Hullo, I say,whispered Horace, suddenly stopping short in his walk,"who''s that fellow sneaking about there by the editor''s door?"
21043Hullo, Reg,said he;"have they promoted you to a` printer''s devil''too?
21043Hullo, puddin''''ead,he began,"''ow''s your pa and your ma to- day?
21043I always think they are such nice furniture in a room, do n''t you, Mrs Cruden?
21043I daresay you know by name the Bishop of S--, our chairman?
21043I mean, had he dropped his surname? 21043 I suppose I had better put my statement down in writing?"
21043I suppose Wilderham has n''t changed much since last term?
21043I suppose clothing is what you chiefly supply?
21043I suppose you supply the Corporation next door?
21043I wonder what he proposes for us?
21043I would gladly do so if I had it, but--"I suppose it''s gone to London too?
21043In London? 21043 In time for what?
21043Is Horace Cruden here?
21043Is Mr Medlock here?
21043Is Mr Reginald at home?
21043Is Reginald ill, then, or their mother?
21043Is he better now?
21043Is it along of that there Medlock?
21043Is it the gentleman that was brought in in a fit?
21043Is it?
21043Is n''t he? 21043 Is n''t this where he works?"
21043Is there any place near here where I can get it?
21043Is there anything about it in the papers?
21043Is there anything else?
21043Is there no possibility of Reginald and me being together?
21043Is your name Cruden Reginald?
21043It was n''t particularly jolly,said Reginald, shrugging his shoulders--"nothing like Wilderham, was it, Horrors?"
21043It''s all very well for you, in your snug berth, but I must get a living, must n''t I?
21043It''s awful,said Horace;"but what else can we do?
21043It''s not inconvenient, I hope?
21043It''s very kind of you to call in,said Mrs Cruden, feeling it time to say something;"do you live near here?"
21043Jealous of me?
21043John Smith? 21043 Jolly weather, ai n''t it?"
21043Let me see,said Mr Medlock, putting his hands in his pocket and leaning against the mantel- piece,"you replied to the advertisement, did n''t you?"
21043Let''i m go, do you''ear?
21043Like yer winders cleaned?
21043Look here, Horace, you surely do n''t suppose I prefer to go to Liverpool to staying here?
21043Look here,said the unwholesome Pillans, looking very warm,"what do you say that for?
21043May I ask if you are acquainted with the late Mr Cruden''s state of affairs?
21043May n''t I watch the river?
21043Maybe I''ave,said the boy;"ai n''t I got a right to?"
21043Me? 21043 Me?
21043Me? 21043 Me?
21043Mean? 21043 Mine?
21043More fun than higher mathematics and Locke on the Understanding, eh, Bland?
21043Mr Medlock, is it? 21043 Mr Richmond,"said Mrs Cruden, after a while, like one in a dream,"can this be true?
21043Mrs Cruden, I believe?
21043My father, Mr Cruden, is here; how is he?
21043No better, I suppose?
21043No one has called, I suppose?
21043No,he said, sadly;"how could I guess?
21043No; what''s the use, with the pot of money you''ve come in for?
21043None for us?
21043Not a very chirrupy screw, so I''m told-- eh?
21043Not much of a berth, is it?
21043Now Booms is going out for the grub, are n''t you, Booms? 21043 Now do you know what I''m come about?"
21043Now then, sheer off; do you hear?
21043Now, Mr Sniff, you''ve got something to say?
21043Now, then, young fellows, what is it?
21043Now, then,said Blandford, as they sat down at one of the tables,"what do you say?
21043Now, then,said Horace''s captor,"what''s the row?
21043Of course there must,said Horace, with a touch of scorn in his voice,"but how are we to prove it?"
21043Oh, Cruden,he whispered,"what will become of me now?
21043Oh, Mrs Cruden, do you call a wicked son a light sorrow?
21043Oh, Sam, why so?
21043Oh, ai n''t he?
21043Oh, is he?
21043Oh, nothing-- what should I? 21043 Oh, there you are, are you?"
21043Oh, what is it? 21043 Oh, you''re''i m, are yer?
21043Open the window, do you''ear? 21043 Or to try to get on an American ship?
21043Pick it up directly, do you hear? 21043 Plenty of customers?"
21043Pretty hot in your shop, ai n''t it?
21043Pretty well? 21043 Pretty, is n''t it?"
21043Reg, will you put chairs?
21043Say, gov''nor, think they''d give us a brown for this''ere_ Robinson_?
21043Say, governor,said he as soon as Reginald entered,"do you know Southwark Road?"
21043Say, what''s yer name,said he, looking up and laying his finger on the battle scene;"which of them two does for t''other?"
21043Say, what''s yer name,said he,"ever read_ Tim Tigerskin_?"
21043Say-- gov''nor, I ai n''t going to read no more books; do ye hear?
21043See the sausages are hot this time, wo n''t you, Booms? 21043 Shall I put you down for a complete suit, as mentioned in the circular?"
21043Shut up, Horace,said the elder brother;"what''s the use of making yourself disagreeable?
21043So that''s what you call doing your work, is it? 21043 So you''ve heard all about it, have you?"
21043Something I''ve done, I suppose?
21043Suppose we try to earn something?
21043Tell you we want no boys; ca n''t you see the notice up outside?
21043That there_ Noogate Calendar_ made a rare flare- up, did n''t it, gov''nor?
21043That''s all you know?
21043The-- what''s- his- name?--Mr Reginald-- I suppose he deals with you?
21043Then perhaps you''ll hand it up this moment?
21043Then what did you say they was babies for?
21043Then why could n''t you say so at once? 21043 Then why do n''t you send the things?"
21043These are your boys, are they?
21043These are your sons, I presume?
21043Think he will turn up?
21043Took off-- you do n''t mean to say he''s dead?
21043Ugh-- trying to be funny, are you, Mr Snubnose? 21043 Very well,"said the other, resignedly;"but where are you going to meet?
21043WILL YOU WALK INTO MY PARLOUR?
21043Was he?
21043Was it to some old schoolfellow?
21043Was n''t it?
21043We''d be a nice pair of boys if we did n''t, eh, Reg?
21043Well, Reg, have you written your letter?
21043Well, how goes it?
21043Well, is n''t it bad enough they have this dreadful trouble?
21043Well, now, what do_ you_ want?
21043Well, the contents of it,said Reginald, bitterly;"you are not going to make out they do n''t belong to us?"
21043Well, then, is anything wrong? 21043 Well, what do you know about the prisoner?"
21043Well, young fellow, picked any pockets lately?
21043Well,cried Reginald, without sitting up,"have you got them at last?"
21043Were you really captain of the fifth at your school?
21043What am I charged with?
21043What are you standing there for?
21043What business has she to do it when I told her not?
21043What can be done?
21043What case is it?
21043What do I want with coats? 21043 What do yer want?"
21043What do you do, eh? 21043 What do you know about it?
21043What do you mean by believe? 21043 What do you mean by interfering with the men in their work?"
21043What do you mean? 21043 What do you mean?"
21043What do you say? 21043 What do you say?"
21043What do you think? 21043 What do you want here?"
21043What does he want there, I wonder-- he was n''t on the late shift to- night, was he?
21043What gentleman?
21043What good is it to us when we''re put to sweep rooms and carry messages?
21043What has he done?
21043What have they done to you?
21043What have you done with it?
21043What is it, Horace?
21043What is it?
21043What is it?
21043What is the matter? 21043 What is the matter?"
21043What made you think I would come?
21043What on earth am I to do, then? 21043 What shall we do without you?"
21043What shall we have to do?
21043What should you do with a half- crown if you had it?
21043What should you say to my mother? 21043 What was to become of them if fellows did their work for half wages, they should like to know?"
21043What were you doing before that?
21043What will you do about the £50?
21043What would I have done if you had n''t turned up like an angel of help, Harker, old man?
21043What would the hours be?
21043What''s the matter? 21043 What''s the row?"
21043What''s the use of making the worst of everything? 21043 What''s the use?
21043What''s the use?
21043What''s your name?
21043What''s your name?
21043What, not in regimentals? 21043 What?
21043What? 21043 Whatever are you dreaming about?"
21043Whatever do you mean? 21043 Whatever for?"
21043Whatever induced you to do such a foolish thing, Love?
21043When did you ever not miss it?
21043When did you hear this?
21043When will he be here?
21043When?
21043Where are my rooms, then?
21043Where are we to get it from?
21043Where else do you expect?
21043Where is it?
21043Where''s the housekeeper?
21043Where''s your brother living?
21043Where''s your coat?
21043Where? 21043 Where?
21043Which is the bigger fool?
21043Who are you?
21043Who can tell us now where we are to look for him?
21043Who have you done for this time?
21043Who told me he was anything else?
21043Who told me?
21043Who told you?
21043Who''d have thought of meeting you here?
21043Who''s blaming you?
21043Who''s your friend?
21043Who? 21043 Why ever do n''t you laugh him out of it?"
21043Why for me? 21043 Why not?
21043Why not?
21043Why should we turn them or anybody up for you, I should like to know?
21043Why, Love, is that you, my boy?
21043Why, what do you know about''i m, then?
21043Why, what do you mean?
21043Why, what''s wrong?
21043Why, where are you going?
21043Why,exclaimed he, too much taken aback almost to find words,"what does it mean?
21043Why,` Love me,_ love_ my dog,''is n''t it?
21043Why_ does n''t_ Horace come?
21043Wilderham? 21043 Will Harker be coming?"
21043Will you come and shake''ands with me, Reggie? 21043 Will you promise, if I tell you, to keep it a secret?"
21043Will you step in and see the doctor?
21043Will you?
21043Would n''t it, though? 21043 Would you like to join?"
21043Would you like to leave an order with me?
21043Would you mind-- may I trouble you-- that is, will you lend me three- and- sixpence, Blandford?
21043Yes, in his carriage-- is he better?
21043Yes, is n''t yours?
21043Yes, old boy; would you like to hear about Him?
21043Yes,said he,"450--a lot, is n''t it?
21043Yes-- is he better?
21043You are Mr Cruden''s son?
21043You are n''t a- giving me the sack?
21043You are sure?
21043You call yourself Cruden Reginald?
21043You can read, then?
21043You did n''t read it through, you say,observed he, when he had finished;"you saw he was let off?"
21043You have, have you? 21043 You know shorthand, then?"
21043You mean to say Mr Medlock told you to steal my letters and give them to him?
21043You mean to say Mr Shuckleford told you to do this?
21043You reserve your defence, then?
21043You wish the young gentlemen to remain, perhaps?
21043You wondered how I came to be in town?
21043You''ll call me a fool, I suppose,he said;"but how could I help it?"
21043You''re a trump, Cruden, to lend us your mother; is n''t he, Booms?
21043You''re not going?
21043You_ have_ come, have you? 21043 Your master''s not in, young man?"
21043_ Both_ railways ca n''t have gone wrong; we shall surely save something?
21043` Do you think they''re so bad?'' 21043 ` Had n''t we better get the letter?''
21043` I suppose I''m to be given in charge?'' 21043 ` Oh-- it was you composed it as well as wrote it, was it?''
21043` So, Mr Durfy,''said Waterford, leaning up against the door and folding his arms,` it''s you, is it?'' 21043 ` What do you mean?''
21043` You think I know all about it?'' 21043 `"Ancient and Mod--"Why, it''s in your writing; did you copy it out for her?''
21043''taint nothing along of me, are it?"
21043A dog?
21043After all, was there not one way of escape?
21043All he had to do was to state what he_ knew_, and meanwhile, if the prisoner choose to simplify matters by pleading guilty, well, why should n''t he?
21043And did they all send the two pounds, as stated here, along with their order?"
21043And the risk?
21043And what do they call you?"
21043And what was the use of saying he must be used to horses?
21043And what was to become of him now?
21043And why need he be good- looking?
21043And you know the hour, do you?"
21043And''ow do you do, too, my man?"
21043Any news?
21043Anyhow, I sha n''t be sorry to show up at Wilderham again, shall you, Bland?"
21043Are any of the old school lot coming?"
21043Are n''t your instructions to have it swept out once a week?
21043Are they any good?"
21043Are you a member here?"
21043Are you an apprentice?"
21043Are you deaf?
21043Are you disgusted with him, reader?
21043Are you ready now?"
21043Are you ready?"
21043Are you rested?"
21043At last, however, he summoned up resolution enough to say politely,--"Now, madam, can I be of any service?"
21043Besides, who''d look after you?"
21043Besides, why should he advertise in the_ Rocket_ unless he meant to get applications from Londoners?
21043Blandford might have a right to catechise him; but what business was it of this numbskull''s where he lived?
21043Bless you, what''s the odds if you call me Tommy Love or Love Tommy?
21043Booms will stand first, wo n''t you, Booms?"
21043Booms''s washerwoman--""Whatever has she to do with shorthand?"
21043Business is business after all, and if Cruden is a swindler, whose fault is it if Cruden''s mother breaks her heart?
21043But could nothing be done?
21043But did he leave nothing behind him?"
21043But did n''t you and Jemima hit it, then, Reg?
21043But he overcame himself with a mighty effort, and said,--"Where?"
21043But then, what about coals and postage- stamps and other incidental expenses, which had to be met in Mr Medlock''s absence out of his own pocket?
21043But what is the next thing to be done?"
21043But what was the use of saying"I think I shall suit you,"when possibly he might not suit after all?
21043But, sir--""Well, what?"
21043By the way, do you fancy any one smells anything wrong up in the North yet?"
21043Ca n''t you take a holiday while we''ve got one?"
21043Christmas was still a fortnight off, and till then what could he do on thirteen shillings a week?
21043Clear out of here, I tell you, double quick; do you hear?"
21043Composing- room?
21043Could n''t you find anything better than that for us?"
21043Could you break it to him?"
21043Could you ever scrape up six- and- six, and pay it for me to Blandford, whose address I give below?
21043Could you go round to your old neighbours and crack up our goods, and book their orders and that sort of thing?
21043Cruden Reginald, eh?
21043Curious, is n''t it?"
21043Cut up to bed now, do you hear?"
21043Dear me, when I saw you in London I called you Mr Reginald, did n''t I?"
21043Did n''t she, Sam?"
21043Did not his clothes, his empty pockets, the smart of Durfy''s tongue, and even the letter now on its way to Mr Medlock, all disprove it?
21043Do I know_ your_ name?
21043Do it first thing to- morrow, wo n''t you, Mr Booms?"
21043Do it very gently, and be sure not to let my mother, or his, or anybody else hear of it, wo n''t you?"
21043Do n''t we, Booms?"
21043Do n''t you know?
21043Do try it, old man, wo n''t you?"
21043Do you know any lodging- house?"
21043Do you know me now?"
21043Do you know where that is?"
21043Do you remember Reg chipping that corner of the frame with a singlestick?"
21043Do you say that you, in his shoes, would have done better?
21043Do you suppose I ai n''t''ad a pull at it?"
21043Do you think--""Have you?"
21043Do you think_ you''d_ suit the place?"
21043Do you twig?"
21043Do you want to cheek me?"
21043Do you, or do you not?"
21043Do you--""Have you sold it for our breakfast?"
21043Eh, Cruden?''
21043Eh, Reg?"
21043Eh?
21043Find the Old Bailey a''ealthy place, do n''t they?"
21043Gone in love, I suppose, eh?
21043Got a broom?"
21043Granville may have put them into the fire as not even worth returning, or he may actually--_O mirabile dictu_--be going to put us into print?"
21043Had n''t we better go to London?"
21043Has anything happened?
21043Has he been collaring any of your spoons?
21043Has he gone away, then?"
21043Has n''t mother had quite enough to bear already?"
21043Have you got the_ Times_ for the last few days?"
21043Have you made your entries, Jones?
21043Have you them here?"
21043He could only hope for the best, and, meanwhile, what fate was in store for himself?
21043He drained it half empty; then stopping suddenly, he said,--"Have you had any yourself?"
21043He recovered himself shortly, however, and demanded sharply,--"What are you doing here, making all this mess?"
21043He stood and watched the men come out, and wondered if any of them were like himself-- whether among them was a young Gedge or a Durfy?
21043Here was 17, a baker''s; 15, a greengrocer''s; and 13--eh?
21043How are you, my man?
21043How are you, old man?"
21043How are you, too, Mr Shanklin, pretty well?"
21043How did you get on?
21043How long has he been here?"
21043How many hundred millions of pounds is it you''ll come in for, Reg?
21043How much do you get where you are?"
21043How much is it?"
21043How much is it?"
21043How often are the classes?"
21043How was he ever to hold up his head again and face the world like an honest man, and say he had defrauded no man?
21043How were we to prove whose the letter was?
21043How would that suit him?
21043How would this do?
21043How would you like that?"
21043How''s Harker, by the way?"
21043How, he wondered, was the poor fellow getting on that moment in his distant uncongenial work?
21043However is Reg to shave?"
21043Hullo, where are you, Pillans?"
21043I know you''ll think I''m an impostor, ma''am, but could you, for pity''s sake, give me a shilling?
21043I said I''d turn up here and pay you that bill, Shanklin, and I have turned up, have n''t I?"
21043I say, mother, what_ are_ we to do?"
21043I say, what''s your name?"
21043I say, why do n''t you come and look us up?
21043I say, young''un, have you got a chair?"
21043I say, young''un, what''s the row with you?
21043I say,"added he to the policeman,"when does Reginald''s case come on?"
21043I say,"said he, and his voice trembled with excitement and brotherly pride as he spoke,"was n''t it splendid?"
21043I should have thought she could write better stuff than that, should n''t you?''
21043I suppose you do n''t know when the gentleman upstairs will be back?"
21043I wonder if it would n''t have been wiser, mother, for me to have stayed up this term and made sure of it?"
21043I''ve murdered dozens, do you''ear?
21043If he were capable of such a meanness, was he to be trusted in anything else?
21043In a minute or two he looked up and said,--"Had Cruden senior changed his name?"
21043In fact, what right had she and her mother and her brother to come there at all?
21043In what respect was he better off, when men seemed to know by instinct and in the dark that he was a character to mistrust and suspect?
21043Is Mrs Cruden still at Garden Vale?"
21043Is he ill?"
21043Is he one of your principals-- a dark tall man?"
21043Is he still with you?
21043Is he-- dead?"
21043Is it all right?"
21043Is it any use bidding him, as we bade him once before, turn round and face the evil genius that is pursuing him?
21043Is n''t it dreadful?
21043Is n''t it fun?"
21043Is she very ill?"
21043Is that all you''ve done?"
21043Is that the case?"
21043Is there any bad news about Reginald?"
21043Is there no home?
21043It was not for some time that he could find words to say, hoarsely,--"Love, is this the truth, or a lie you are telling me?"
21043It''ll save trouble to take the table d''hote, eh?
21043It''s a Miss Crisp, Cruden, a friend of Booms''s, who--""Whom I met the other night at the Shucklefords''?"
21043It''s a clear case, is n''t it?"
21043It''s as hard work sponging one fool as it is fleecing a couple of hundred sheep, eh?"
21043It''s enough to make one die of laughing, is n''t it?"
21043Let the boy alone, do you hear?"
21043Let them mock him; what cared he?
21043Mr Durfy mused for some time, then, turning to Reginald, he said,--"Do you know your letters?"
21043Nothing but their own hard breathing broke the stillness of those few minutes, and who knows in that brief space what a lifetime seemed crowded?
21043Now, do you think you could sell £500 worth of wine and cigars and that sort of thing every year among your friends?
21043Now, suppose-- suppose when I go back to Liverpool I were to recommend you for a post like that, what would you say?"
21043Now, who''s for musical chairs?
21043Oh, guv''nor, take me too, ca n''t yer?"
21043Oh, why did n''t we know this before?"
21043One hundred pounds a day for ten days makes how much, Durfy?"
21043Or that an accident to Major Lambert''s horse while clearing a fence at one of the--shire hunts should also affect their prospects in life?
21043Presently he could stand it no longer, and said,--"Say, gov''nor, what''s up?
21043Presently he looked up and said,--"Are there any left?"
21043Rattle along, do you''ear?
21043Reginald gave a scared glance at the chairs being arranged back to back in a long line down the room, and said,--"May I play the piano instead?
21043Sam, do you hear?
21043Samuel knew Mr Medlock-- whom did n''t he know?
21043Say, what did they do with''is dead body?
21043Send him at once, Durfy, do you hear?"
21043Seven years, ai n''t it?
21043Shall I go and see?"
21043She sat up on the sofa, and said, in an agitated voice,--"What_ do_ you mean, Mrs Shuckleford?
21043Should he go and give Durfy notice then and there?
21043Should he tell Horace, or Gedge, or his mother of it?
21043Since you''ve been so industrious, pick me out a lower- case` x,''do you hear?"
21043So you have n''t got an album?"
21043Suppose he had all along had his vague suspicions of the honesty of the Corporation, and yet had continued to serve them?
21043Suppose he really had done something to be ashamed of?
21043Suppose, in fact, his negligence had been criminal?
21043Suppose, with the best of intentions, he had shut his eyes wilfully to what he might and must have seen?
21043Sure you understand?"
21043Surely there''s a_ chance_ of his getting better?"
21043Tell the manager we''re here, will you, and look sharp?"
21043That must be a very poor relation; surely you do n''t count him in?"
21043That''s rather a shady locality, is n''t it?"
21043The boy looked a little disappointed, but said, presently,--"Want any errands fetched, gov''nor?"
21043The other was-- was it_ quite_ out of the question that he should go into the army?
21043The shout was immediately followed by a loud chorus of laughter, and cries of,--"Well, have you guessed it?"
21043Then, looking up at Reginald, he said,--"Beg your pardon, gov''nor,--ain''t got a crust of bread you do n''t want,''ave yer?"
21043Then, somewhat revived, he lay back and said,"I''ave got''em, then?"
21043There, what do you think of that?
21043They continued their conversation as though no third party had been near, and except that Mr Medlock nodded when the waiter said"For three?"
21043Very likely, reader; but, after all, who are you or I to say so?
21043Was ever luck like his?
21043Was ever luck like his?
21043Was he to be put in charge of some one too, or was he to remain a printer''s devil?
21043Was he to return to it passing rich of £97 10 shillings?
21043Was it as bad as you expected?"
21043Was it genuine or not?
21043Was that other fellow your brother, then?"
21043Was_ he_ in that van-- so near them, yet so hopelessly beyond their reach?
21043We ought to turn out a good eleven with four old Wilderhams to give it a backbone, eh?"
21043We''ve been to the theatre, have n''t we, Pillans?"
21043What about them?"
21043What about those two lads I sent up to you yesterday?
21043What about young Gedge?
21043What are you going to do?
21043What are you talking about?"
21043What business was it of hers whether he had got an album or not?
21043What chance had he among 450 competitors?
21043What change might not have taken place in his lot before that same bell summoned him once more to work?
21043What did he care about a coat?
21043What did he care for Durfy now?
21043What did you ever come here for?
21043What do you do with yourself all day long in town?"
21043What do you mean, sir?"
21043What do you mean?
21043What do you say to a bathe in the river, you fellows?"
21043What do you say?"
21043What do you say?"
21043What do you think of that?"
21043What do you think of that?"
21043What do you think, Harker?"
21043What do you think, Reg?"
21043What else could I mean?"
21043What else could it be meant for but to remind him there was no escape, no hope of losing himself, no chance of forgetting?
21043What else could it point to but a deliberate, deeply- laid scheme of fraud?
21043What else was he to expect when once these official snobs took a thing up?
21043What good could it do now?
21043What had he been doing to her?
21043What has happened?"
21043What has he been up to?"
21043What if some one might be peering out into the night from one of the black windows of those silent houses?
21043What is it, Miss Crisp?"
21043What makes you ask that?"
21043What makes you so queer?"
21043What right had she to pester him with questions like that in his own house?
21043What shall we have to drink?
21043What sort of chap is he?"
21043What then about young Gedge?
21043What was he to make of it-- what else could he make of it except that he was a miserable dupe, with ruin staring him in the face?
21043What was it crouching at the door of Number 13, half hidden in the shade?
21043What was the use of honesty, of principle, of conscientiousness, if they were all with one accord to rise against him and degrade him?
21043What was the use of keeping up the struggle any longer?
21043What was-- what did he get?"
21043What were they before they came down?"
21043What will she do now?"
21043What would it be when a dozen or possibly two dozen persons slept there?
21043What would they think of the four hundred and odd suits we have on order, eh, Mr Reginald?"
21043What''s the good of knowing how many ships fought at Salamis, when we do n''t even know how many ounces you can send by post for twopence?
21043What''s the use of making a disturbance for nothing?"
21043What''s the use of putting any more than` London''on the envelope-- such a well- known character as you?
21043What''s this?
21043What''s wrong, I say?
21043What''s yer name?"
21043What''s your little game now?"
21043What, in short, was the use of being called a secretary if he was armed with no greater authority than a common junior clerk?
21043What_ are_ you talking about?"
21043What_ do_ you mean?
21043What_ does_ it all mean?"
21043Whatever should he be down in the mouth about?"
21043When was it swept last?"
21043Where are you going to take me?"
21043Where should he go?
21043Who could even suspect him of such a thing as fraud?
21043Who does not know it?
21043Who ever heard of a groom that was n''t?
21043Who had not had enough of his sort?
21043Who is he?"
21043Who would have thought of seeing you?"
21043Who would not suspect him wherever he went?
21043Who''d take us?
21043Who''s the kid?"
21043Who''s this cad you keep about the place, Blandford?"
21043Who''s to look after me if you do n''t?"
21043Who?"
21043Whom?"
21043Why could he not be trusted with sufficient money and control over the operations of the Corporation to enable him to meet so unfounded a charge?
21043Why do n''t you go about your own work?"
21043Why do n''t you tell me?"
21043Why do n''t you try for the army?
21043Why ever did he not think of it all before, and spare himself this double indignity?
21043Why ever had the Corporation not had the ordinary decency to have his permanent accommodation ready for him before he arrived?
21043Why not spend it now and have done with it?
21043Why, in our club-- do you know our club?"
21043Wild thoughts of a stomach- pump, or soap and warm water, did flash through my mind, but what was the use?
21043Will Mr Smith be able to show them to me?"
21043Will you wait till they come, or will you go up now?"
21043With his poor spirit, his weak purpose, his blind folly?
21043With the instinct of desperation he rushed towards her, and, lifting his hat, said,--"Can I help you across, ma''am?"
21043Would Horace be sure and keep his eye on the young''un, and was there any chance of getting him down to Liverpool?
21043Would a coat revive his good name, or cover the disgrace of that magisterial caution?
21043Would he take charge of the dismal secret?
21043Would you mind, Waterford?"
21043Yes, and what would they think?
21043Yes; there was plenty to go into before Samuel put down his foot, and who knew better how to go into it than S.S.?
21043You are n''t as quick at figures, perhaps, as you might be?"
21043You can tell mother so, and say I''m down at the club, and she''d better leave supper up for me; do you hear?"
21043You did everything in his name, I suppose-- took the office, ordered the printing, and all that sort of thing?"
21043You know what Bland said about the football club in his letter?
21043You say your two young mashers are still in tow, Alf?"
21043You think so too, do n''t you, Booms?"
21043You understand?
21043You would n''t think it to look at him, would you?"
21043You''d sell a dozen of port at sixty shillings, do you see?
21043You''d think it a fine joke if you found yourself in the police- station instead of the railway- station to- morrow morning, would n''t you?"
21043You''re not a teetotaler, are you?"
21043Your dear Reginald--""Well, what about him?"
21043_ Will you_ keep back, please?
21043` I did n''t do it; but when once a man''s suspected, what''s the use of saying anything?''
21043a chemist''s?
21043a child?
21043a woman?
21043and robbed the till, and set the Manshing''Ouse o''fire, do you''ear?
21043are you game, you fellows?
21043cried the boy at last, seizing Reginald''s arm,"what will you think of me?
21043cried the worthy lady;"how many times have I told you?"
21043dirty work, ai n''t it?"
21043do n''t I?
21043do_ you_ play the piano?"
21043exclaimed Reginald, lighting up jubilantly at the sight of an old familiar face,"how are you?
21043exclaimed Reginald;"was it with him you used to go?"
21043growled the man, with his hand still on his ruler, and glaring at Reginald,"without giving yourselves airs as if you were gentry?
21043how far in did I get?"
21043if my''andkerchief''s not my hown, I''d like to know what is?

21043she murmured; then, turning to Reginald, she said,"And what do you do, Reg?"
21043shouted Mr Durfy;"going with you, is he?
21043that you would have held up your head still, and braved the storm?
21043that you would never have lost courage?
21043then you have been imposing on more than me?"
21043think if he knew who was walking down the other side of the road?
21043what can we do?"
21043what is it?
21043what should he do?
21043what would you do?"
21043what''s that?"
21043what_ do_ you mean?"
21043where?
