| 36891 | Where are you going so early this Sunday morning? |
| 36891 | There were some in the assembly who, like the disciples at Galilee, said,"What can this little supply do among so many?" |
| 36891 | What can Christ do with the gift of a little child? |
| 36891 | What can the spirit of God do with the seed of an oak? |
| 36899 | A few minutes later the friend of the mistress said:"I wonder if my daughter''s dresses would fit your servant? |
| 36899 | But for some reason, which is not now recalled, there was given out for an evening''s meditation the topic,"Shall we pray for money?" |
| 36899 | Think what Spirit dwells within thee; What a Father''s smile is thine; What a Saviour died to win thee: Child of heaven, shouldst thou repine? |
| 26709 | And how is the name to be hallowed? |
| 26709 | And what does this mean? |
| 26709 | And will not the Father in heaven care for the child who has in prayer given himself up to His interests? |
| 26709 | Is it not wonderful? |
| 26709 | It will lead to a holy thoughtfulness and silence in prayer as it suggests the question: Does my Father really know that I need this? |
| 26709 | Shall we not join in the deep longing cry of the redeemed:''Thy kingdom come''? |
| 26709 | We may indeed and most joyfully say,''Who teacheth like Him?'' |
| 26709 | What name? |
| 26709 | would it not be just what we need, to ask the Master for a month to give us a course of special lessons on the art of prayer? |
| 28102 | And how must you do this? 28102 And_ are_ you going to be married, dear?" |
| 28102 | Do tell me_ when_; and_ who_ is it? |
| 28102 | In the all- encircling Good,she said to herself serenely,"there is plenty of money for me; why, then, should I not spend this?" |
| 28102 | The money? |
| 28102 | Where-- in what place will the lady speak-- I mean, will it be in the church? |
| 28102 | You do n''t suppose--lowering her strident tones to a whisper--"that the poor thing is going crazy?" |
| 28102 | You-- you meant religious gifts, did you not? |
| 28102 | _ Have_ you had a fortune left you? |
| 28102 | How is it possible to fall away? |
| 28102 | Is it not because they do not know Him?" |
| 28102 | Ma she sez to me, sez she,''What ails you Lecty?'' |
| 28102 | When Electa asked me point blank, what could I say without-- without denying--_God_?" |
| 28102 | Why? |
| 37143 | What are they doing in heaven? |
| 37143 | But why should he try to convey an idea of that growing answer to his prayer? |
| 37143 | How did they start? |
| 37143 | If the Lord has all power and has a sincere desire to make the world good, why does he not do it by one sweep of his hand or by one magic word? |
| 37143 | Shall tribulation, or distress, or peril, or sword? |
| 37143 | Subconscious Religion Does God Answer Christians Only? |
| 37143 | We have put away childish things and here we stand, men and women, saved by grace, and"Who can separate us from the love of Christ? |
| 37143 | What did they do first? |
| 37143 | What is the reason for his commandment to pray to him and to ask him to do that which he wishes to do and can do himself? |
| 37143 | Why could not he follow their example? |
| 21351 | The next question is whether God is too great to require our service? 21351 You say you would believe it if you could see the controlling Creator? |
| 21351 | Apostles''? |
| 21351 | Cyprian, Bp,? |
| 21351 | Is not he thy father that bought thee? |
| 21351 | Then you really say that there is an actual equality of the Three Persons, and yet that there is but one God? |
| 21351 | What then are the characteristics which we must expect in a Collect? |
| 21351 | Why then should we suppose that intelligence is the only thing which{ 103} is an exception-- the only thing of which we have the whole? |
| 21351 | why suppose that all these adaptations have been made, so wonderfully, without a controlling mind? |
| 14543 | And to what is he to be restored? |
| 14543 | Going to sheer off again, Master Johnny? |
| 14543 | Sorry are you? 14543 Sorry now, and angry then? |
| 14543 | And how did she endeavour to lighten the burden of her misery? |
| 14543 | And what had the possession of gold done for the man who made it his idol? |
| 14543 | Do you know that I have lost my new ball? |
| 14543 | He saw his idol broken before his eyes, and where was he to turn for comfort? |
| 14543 | It''s one''s nature,--how can one fight against nature? |
| 14543 | Speak out, will you? |
| 14543 | What did I do to cure myself of that evil? |
| 14543 | What would uncle say if he saw it?" |
| 14543 | and what were you on Saturday when I shook you as a cat shakes a rat?" |
| 14543 | what shall I do? |
| 14543 | what shall I do?" |
| 20379 | --But how would it be with you, dear reader, if you are unprepared, and should be taken out of the world? |
| 20379 | 13, 14, encourage us to ask with all boldness, for ourselves and others, both temporal and spiritual blessings? |
| 20379 | About four hours after, we were with a sister at Bishopsteignton, and she said to me,"Do you want any money?" |
| 20379 | And how did it end? |
| 20379 | For in the time of temptation, I have been repeatedly led to say: Should I thus sin? |
| 20379 | How did it turn out? |
| 20379 | How then could I be fit to teach others? |
| 20379 | I ought to have said to myself, how can an individual, so ignorant as you are, think about being a teacher to others? |
| 20379 | I was then asked by the sister who bad been baptized,"But have you been baptized?" |
| 20379 | Lord, when saw we Thee an hungered, and fed Thee? |
| 20379 | One morning I was in so wretched a state, that I said in my heart, what have I now gained by becoming a Christian? |
| 20379 | Shall I have enough myself the next month? |
| 20379 | She then replied,"Have you ever read the Scriptures, and prayed with reference to this subject?" |
| 20379 | What shall I drink?--and Wherewithal shall I be clothed? |
| 20379 | What wilt Thou have me to do, gracious Lord? |
| 20379 | When will God deliver me from this state?! |
| 20379 | Whilst I was writing, however, the thought occurred to me, Suppose this lady should not be a believer? |
| 20379 | Will she now suffer loss on account of it? |
| 20379 | Will she regret not having indulged her fancy in that instance? |
| 20379 | or thirsty, and gave Thee drink? |
| 22034 | Shall not the judge of all the earth do right? |
| 22034 | ( 1) How does it appear to be the mind of God, that, in every Church, there should be recognized Elders? |
| 22034 | ( 1) How frequently ought the breaking of bread to be attended to? |
| 22034 | ( 2) How do such come into office? |
| 22034 | ( 2) What ought to be the character of the meeting at which the saints are assembled for the breaking of bread? |
| 22034 | ( 3) How may this appointment be made known to the individuals called to the office, and to those amongst whom they may be called to labour? |
| 22034 | ( 4) Is it incumbent upon the saints to acknowledge such and to submit to them in the Lord? |
| 22034 | And have I not reason, therefore, to thank God for this affliction? |
| 22034 | Are you in debt? |
| 22034 | Are you out of debt? |
| 22034 | Do I not even now see this affliction working for my good? |
| 22034 | Have you any present need for the Institution under your care? |
| 22034 | How can I sufficiently praise Him for this long- suffering? |
| 22034 | II.--Ought matters of discipline to be finally settled by the Elders in private, or in the presence of the Church, and as the act of the whole body? |
| 22034 | III.--When should Church acts( such as acts of reception, restoration, exclusion,& c.) be attended to? |
| 22034 | If it be asked, but why should I rise early? |
| 22034 | It may lastly be said, but how shall I set about rising early? |
| 22034 | It might be asked, how much time shall I allow myself for rest? |
| 22034 | Shall I not then praise my Father for such dealings with me? |
| 22034 | That many enemies would laugh, were the Lord to withhold supplies, and say, did we not foretell that this enthusiasm would come to nothing? |
| 22034 | The gentleman, turning to the matron, said,"Have you a good stock?" |
| 22034 | What hinders God, to make of one, so vile as I am, another Whitfield? |
| 22034 | What is to be done under these circumstances? |
| 22034 | You are dear to me; yea, so dear, that I desire to live and die with you, if our Lord permit; and why should I not tell you so by letter? |
| 25891 | 20- 23? |
| 25891 | ARE YOU PREPARED FOR ETERNITY? |
| 25891 | Am_ I_ willing to give according to_ my_ ability? |
| 25891 | And how came this? |
| 25891 | And how should our Father do otherwise? |
| 25891 | And why not? |
| 25891 | Are you prepared for eternity? |
| 25891 | But how were we to obtain warmth? |
| 25891 | But what was to be done? |
| 25891 | Do you ask, how you may be prepared for eternity, how to be saved, how to obtain the forgiveness of your sins? |
| 25891 | Does the Lord love you less than He loves us? |
| 25891 | He writes:--"What was now to be done, dear reader, under these circumstances, when all the money for the above Objects was again gone? |
| 25891 | Is it not manifest how precious it is to carry on God''s work in this way, even with regard to the obtaining of means?" |
| 25891 | May you not do, what we do, under your_ trials_? |
| 25891 | Or are we better than you? |
| 25891 | The question now was, to whom shall I be united? |
| 25891 | Well, the Father in Heaven said, as it were, by this His dispensation,''Art thou willing to give up this child to me?'' |
| 25891 | What then was to be done? |
| 25891 | What was now to be done, dear Reader? |
| 25891 | What was to be done? |
| 25891 | Would it have been right to charge God with unfaithfulness? |
| 25891 | Would it have been right to distrust Him? |
| 25891 | Would it have been right to say, it is useless to pray? |
| 25891 | You ask, How may I, a true believer, have my faith strengthened? |
| 25891 | You may say, however,''What would you do, if He should fail in helping you?'' |
| 37501 | And the time? |
| 37501 | How could you keep your temper through all the vexatious dispute of to- night''s debate? |
| 37501 | How did he know? |
| 37501 | What must I do? 37501 What shall I put it to?" |
| 37501 | What would be the effect,said I,"on you, if I were to appear at the moment the storm was about to burst? |
| 37501 | Why did we not know? |
| 37501 | Why not pray openly and unitedly-- and believe? |
| 37501 | Why not trust God? |
| 37501 | ( 1) It is said God knows already; why tell Him? |
| 37501 | ( 2) It is said God fore- sees; why try to influence what He knows is sure to be? |
| 37501 | A friend not far from one of my places of business sent for me, and when I called, he said,"How are you getting on at Cessnock?" |
| 37501 | After all, is Christianity true? |
| 37501 | But do you ask for the evidences, and do you propose to begin to pray if the facts are convincing, and to refuse the practice if they are not? |
| 37501 | But what is prayer? |
| 37501 | Can the head be anointed with God''s kingly oil which has not been bowed down in the darkness? |
| 37501 | Did miracles happen?" |
| 37501 | Do you know what it will cost?" |
| 37501 | Do you know what"Sabbath Reading"is? |
| 37501 | Does God not lead souls through darkness into light? |
| 37501 | For what is the answer to prayer which the praying heart looks for? |
| 37501 | Has every prayer power with God? |
| 37501 | I said"Janet"--Janet Stewart was her name--"are you not giving me too much?" |
| 37501 | If the hairs of our head are all numbered, why not also the shoes of our feet?" |
| 37501 | Is not the Valley of the Shadow the precursor of the table of love which God spreads? |
| 37501 | My grace is sufficient for thee"? |
| 37501 | Paul?" |
| 37501 | Quarrier?" |
| 37501 | The certainties of the opening months or years of the Christian pilgrimage had given place to torturing questions, such as,"Am I not deceived? |
| 37501 | We pray that the divine love would spare them dark days; and yet, are the prayers well prayed? |
| 37501 | What are its real contents? |
| 37501 | What is inspiration? |
| 37501 | What shall be said of the faithful man who, through his own effort, maintained a small but efficient orphanage? |
| 37501 | When I hear requests for prayer for the conversion of a son or daughter, I say to myself, How much is that parent doing to win that child for Christ? |
| 37501 | and why not? |
| 26033 | If God be for us, who can be against us? |
| 26033 | Now what is the result? 26033 Say not my soul,''Can God relieve my care?'' |
| 26033 | Yes; but who are you? |
| 26033 | ''Did I not die for thee? |
| 26033 | ***** A short time since I asked a dear friend whose writings have reached and inspired multitudes throughout the Christian world:"How did you do it?" |
| 26033 | At the close of the meeting I said,"Can I help you?" |
| 26033 | But how could I live Christ? |
| 26033 | But, Lord, to- morrow? |
| 26033 | Can we doubt that their prayers had something to do with the marvelous revival movement which followed? |
| 26033 | Could I have borne it had I known then that almost forty years would pass before that yearning would be satisfied? |
| 26033 | Could I, in a word, ever hope to be able to live Christ as well as preach him? |
| 26033 | Do I not live for thee? |
| 26033 | Does this case of unanswered prayer shake my faith in God''s willingness and power to answer prayer? |
| 26033 | Fan''s, the message of James 5:14, 15, kept coming persistently to me, as if spoken by a voice:"Is any sick among you? |
| 26033 | Here again Paul seemed to feel no fear, but said,"Mother, what does this put you in mind of? |
| 26033 | How could they be, when no record of prayer has been kept all these fifty years? |
| 26033 | How then could we support the men we had, and go on with the work which was opening so gloriously before us after years of hard pioneer preparation? |
| 26033 | I handed the letter to my daughter, saying:"Shall we not believe that God will undertake for us? |
| 26033 | I looked at her in amazement, and almost gasped:"Are you the one who spoke to Mr. Goforth Saturday night?" |
| 26033 | I thought,"Can this be the Christian courage I have looked for?" |
| 26033 | Is it much wonder I can say I know God answers prayer? |
| 26033 | Is it not true, in our human relationships with our children, that we see best to grant at one time what we withhold at another? |
| 26033 | Is not Jesus Christ the same yesterday, to- day, and forever? |
| 26033 | Not for a moment did I think there was anything in the purse till my brother said:"You foolish girl, why do n''t you open it?" |
| 26033 | Oh, is not the goodness and forbearance of our God wonderful; wonderful that he ever again would deign to give help when asked for it? |
| 26033 | One day Mr. Goforth came to me with his Bible open at the promise,"My God shall supply all your need,"and asked:"Do we believe this? |
| 26033 | Or did he allow the children to suffer in the years that followed, when months each year were spent with them right out among the people? |
| 26033 | Shall there be rest from toil, Be truce from sorrow? |
| 26033 | So what could I do? |
| 26033 | Some have asked,"But have you never sinned?" |
| 26033 | The question that weighed heavily was,"Should I cancel the meetings for which I had given my word?" |
| 26033 | The question was, where could we flee? |
| 26033 | The thought came-- if you can not trust God for this, when Hudson Taylor could trust for so much more, are you worthy to be a missionary? |
| 26033 | They would just wake up enough to get dressed and ask sleepily,"Are we going again, Mama?" |
| 26033 | Was God faithful to the vision he had given me? |
| 26033 | Was it possible that I could ever really stop worrying? |
| 26033 | Was it possible, with such a nature as mine, ever to become patient and gentle? |
| 26033 | Was it possible? |
| 26033 | We believed that it was his pleasure and purpose to save men and women through his human channels, and why not from the beginning? |
| 26033 | What kept them back that day? |
| 26033 | What more helpful and inspiring than a ringing testimony of_ what God has done_? |
| 26033 | What of to- morrow, Lord? |
| 26033 | Why did they not kill us then? |
| 26033 | Why indeed? |
| 26033 | Why should the Lord lead this woman to me-- the only one, so far as we knew, who could do the machine work-- and then permit her to leave? |
| 26033 | Why should we wonder, therefore, at his healing touch in this age? |
| 26033 | Why, indeed? |
| 26033 | Why, then, was she not spared? |
| 26033 | _ I know God answers prayer!_"I have been asked the question:"Has God_ always_ given you just what you have asked for?" |
| 26033 | _ he said_ that he would hear, And proved his promise, wherefore didst thou fear? |
| 26033 | is there_ anything_ too hard for ME?" |
| 26522 | And the eunuch said, See, here is water: what doth hinder me to be baptized? 26522 He that spared not His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?" |
| 26522 | How do you live? |
| 26522 | Know ye not that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into His death? 26522 Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?" |
| 26522 | Shall not the judge of all the earth do right? |
| 26522 | The Lord Jesus,she said,"has given His last drop of blood for me, and should I not give Him this hundred pounds?" |
| 26522 | What do you gain by it? |
| 26522 | Who pays you for this? |
| 26522 | Why do you hold meetings? |
| 26522 | Will not the best way of replying to this question be to let him speak for himself? 26522 You? |
| 26522 | ( 2)_ How do such come into office?__ Ans._ By the appointment of the Holy Ghost, Acts xx. |
| 26522 | ( 4)_ Is it incumbent upon the saints to acknowledge such and to submit to them in the Lord?__ Ans._ Yes. |
| 26522 | 13, 14, encourage us to ask with all boldness, for ourselves and others, both temporal and spiritual blessings? |
| 26522 | And if this were God''s work, was He not bound to care for His own work? |
| 26522 | And was not all this deliberately planned and carried on for His own glory? |
| 26522 | And what is love? |
| 26522 | And what is_ cross_-bearing? |
| 26522 | And why was it not burnt? |
| 26522 | And would He suffer His own glory to be dimmed? |
| 26522 | At last we reach the_ turning- point_ in the psalm: he asks as he reviews former experiences, WHERE IS THE DIFFERENCE? |
| 26522 | But here is the Spirit''s own inspired utterance, and, if the praying be moulded on the model of His teaching, how can we go astray? |
| 26522 | Can the rod lift itself, or the saw move itself, or the hammer deal its own blow, or the sword make its own thrust? |
| 26522 | Could God ever dishonour such trust? |
| 26522 | Could not something be done to meet the temporal and spiritual wants of this class of very poor children? |
| 26522 | Dear reader, do you know the living God? |
| 26522 | Did not that ornament in the Lord''s sight appear as of great price? |
| 26522 | For example, what have we found to be the initial step and stage in George Muller''s spiritual history? |
| 26522 | For in the time of temptation, I have been repeatedly led to say: Should I thus sin? |
| 26522 | He expected them, for if there were no crises and critical emergencies how could there be critical deliverances? |
| 26522 | He had often sought God and been heard and helped, and why not now? |
| 26522 | How can I get over the plain word of the Lord, which is to the contrary, even if the first four points could be satisfactorily settled? |
| 26522 | How can such use of God''s word fail to help and strengthen spiritual life? |
| 26522 | How did Christ come to the cross? |
| 26522 | IS THE CHANGE IN GOD OR IN ME? |
| 26522 | Is He, in Jesus, your Father? |
| 26522 | Is it not rather His will that my means should be spent in another way? |
| 26522 | Is it possible that there are any modern disciples who"reject the commandment of God that they may keep their own tradition"? |
| 26522 | Is it really a good cause in which I am called upon to become surety? |
| 26522 | Meanwhile how could three hundred children, some of them very young and tender, be kept warm? |
| 26522 | That many enemies would laugh, were the Lord to withhold supplies, and say, did we not foretell that this enthusiasm would come to nothing? |
| 26522 | The evening that he arrived he said, What opportunity is there here for services for the Lord? |
| 26522 | These were_ His_ orphans, for had He not declared Himself the Father of the fatherless? |
| 26522 | Those suggestive words of Christ to Nathanael have often prompted like larger expectations:"Believest thou? |
| 26522 | Was it God''s wings that folded over him, after all his vain flight away from the true nest where the divine Eagle flutters over His young? |
| 26522 | Was it not this very passage in this inspired book that suggested, perhaps, the name of this journal:_"The Lord''s dealings with George Muller"_? |
| 26522 | Was not the work, with its vast correspondence and responsibility, already sufficiently great? |
| 26522 | What is the conclusion, the practical lesson? |
| 26522 | What medium or channel of approach could so insure in the praying soul both an acceptable frame and language taught of the Holy Spirit? |
| 26522 | What obliges the person, who wishes me to become surety for him, to need a surety? |
| 26522 | When, one day, over four pounds came in, the thought occurred to Mr. Muller,"Why not lay aside three pounds against the coming need?" |
| 26522 | Who can read the story of that score of years and yet talk of piety as the product of evolution? |
| 26522 | Why should it be so often said, and sometimes with a measure of ground, or even much ground:"Believers are bad servants, bad tradesmen, bad masters"? |
| 26522 | Would God''s goodness and mercy fail? |
| 26522 | Would he be going''beyond his measure,''spiritually, or naturally? |
| 26522 | Yet for man''s sake what did he do? |
| 12042 | And why? |
| 12042 | Do come as far from the house as you can, wo n''t you? |
| 12042 | Mama,he began,"do you remember the time you told me a secret?" |
| 12042 | O Bessie,cried the mother,"what has happened to detain you? |
| 12042 | O Mama,said Bessie,"are n''t you going with the rest?" |
| 12042 | O my child,he sobbed,"will you forgive me and come back as soon as the Lord will let you? |
| 12042 | Shall we live with Aunt Emma again? |
| 12042 | What can be keeping Bessie tonight? |
| 12042 | What time was that? |
| 12042 | Again, I hear a parent whose loved companion has recently died say,"What can I do now to train my children aright?" |
| 12042 | And do you remember that you said some time you would tell me more?" |
| 12042 | As she passed him, he whispered,"Bessie, what is the matter with your face?" |
| 12042 | Beaching out very timidly, Bessie touched her and said,"O Miss Harrington, wo n''t you please forgive me?" |
| 12042 | But how about the excursion party? |
| 12042 | But, in the meantime, how were her parents feeling? |
| 12042 | Can it not have the same confidence when it is older? |
| 12042 | Can you not point to a time when there was a drifting from your home circle? |
| 12042 | Dear child, where have you been?" |
| 12042 | Did you at that time lift up your home banner and shield? |
| 12042 | Did you tell him of the rapids in the distance? |
| 12042 | Do n''t you think that is dreadful?" |
| 12042 | Do you think Jesus would go to a circus? |
| 12042 | Do you think it would be proper to try to change it? |
| 12042 | Do you think you could get any good should you go? |
| 12042 | Do you wonder why something snug around your waist could be harmful? |
| 12042 | Does n''t she ever get lonesome? |
| 12042 | Have you talked thus to your boy? |
| 12042 | Have you told the boy all that? |
| 12042 | How could her teacher ever love and respect her again? |
| 12042 | I was determined to do this-- but how was I to do it? |
| 12042 | If it is God''s will to take him, can I submit?" |
| 12042 | If not, why not? |
| 12042 | If so, do you not think that a little less labor with your hands and a little time spent with them would be more profitable? |
| 12042 | If you need anything, write to me at once and let me know about it, wo n''t you?" |
| 12042 | In her distress she cried to the Lord, saying,"Dear Lord, what can this mean? |
| 12042 | Is it not worth some self- denial, some sacrifices, on pour part, to have your home spoken of in this manner? |
| 12042 | Is that so? |
| 12042 | It may take a little of your time, but what of that? |
| 12042 | Mr. Worthington must be told, and-- would he be willing? |
| 12042 | Must I go through another test with one of my children? |
| 12042 | My dear friend, can you not remember when this state of things began? |
| 12042 | On receiving the package, Bessie looked at the corset and said,"Mama, shall I wear it?" |
| 12042 | She began to ask herself:"Do I believe that God can heal that child? |
| 12042 | She did not move; and when the teacher said sternly,"Are you going to obey?" |
| 12042 | She would ask her pardon as soon as possible, but would she forgive her? |
| 12042 | Should one of your children ask,"Mama, who was Bessie Worthington?" |
| 12042 | Something must be done; but what? |
| 12042 | The large blue eyes slowly unclose; a look of disappointment comes into them as she says,"Where has Jesus gone?" |
| 12042 | The next thought was,"What will Mama think and say? |
| 12042 | The thought came,''What will people think of me? |
| 12042 | Then she told about the surprise party and about all that had happened, and concluded by asking,"Mama, is it right to dance?" |
| 12042 | To whom could I go for help? |
| 12042 | Upon entering her home she immediately asked her husband,"How is Louise?" |
| 12042 | What a beautiful testimony? |
| 12042 | What child does not enjoy the old- fashioned game of hide- and- seek, tag, or some such innocent amusement with Papa and Mama? |
| 12042 | What did it mean? |
| 12042 | What if a bear should some that morning? |
| 12042 | What is conscience? |
| 12042 | What is it, dear?" |
| 12042 | What should she do? |
| 12042 | What work is more noble, more elevating than the teaching of the undeveloped mind? |
| 12042 | When Bessie got home the next morning, her mother asked,"Well, dear, did you have a good time?" |
| 12042 | When she answered,"Yes,"he said quickly,"Do n''t you think I''m old enough now?" |
| 12042 | While he was preparing to leave for school, his mother said,"You will no doubt be made sport of today; are you able to bear it?" |
| 12042 | Why was this? |
| 12042 | Why, Bessie, where is your faith? |
| 12042 | Why, child, what is the matter with you?" |
| 12042 | Would God forgive her again? |
| 12042 | Would it not be best to leave his mind free from these ideas until he is older?" |
| 12042 | Would she do right to let her child slip from under her parental care? |
| 12042 | You know I never wanted to leave home before; and if you wo n''t let me return, what shall I do?" |
| 12042 | You''ve heard your conscience speaking to you, have n''t you, Bessie?" |
| 12042 | what about her teacher? |
| 12042 | what could she do? |
| 12042 | when he began to crave the association of others more than that of his own brothers and sisters? |
| 12042 | when home life began to seem too narrow for your child? |
| 12042 | why had she not examined the child closely then? |
| 12042 | why in homes of promised bliss May not this gem be found?" |
| 12042 | why is this? |
| 12042 | would God give her back her child? |
| 13196 | I do n''t know, who? |
| 13196 | Light obeyed, increased light: Light resisted, bringeth night Who shall give us power to choose If the love of light we lose? 13196 Well,"some one will object,"now you''re cutting us all out, are you not? |
| 13196 | [ 12] Why? 13196 [ 20] Tell me, is this the way the Spirit of God leads? |
| 13196 | < u> A Very Old Question. This leads to a very old question: Does prayer influence God? |
| 13196 | Again came the same quietly spoken words to her ear,"will you abide the consequences?" |
| 13196 | Am I thinking about what He is thinking about for me? |
| 13196 | And I said,"Why not?" |
| 13196 | And even Daniel''s eyes open big--"the_ first_ day-- three weeks ago?" |
| 13196 | And if some one listening may ask: Why put the condition of prayer so strongly as that? |
| 13196 | And the Father would quickly bend over and graciously say,"What''ll you have? |
| 13196 | And who_ can_ teach like Him? |
| 13196 | Are we not all conscious of a sinful something inside here that has to be fought, and held under all the while?" |
| 13196 | As she was praying and distressed a voice, an exquisitely quiet inner voice said,"will you abide the consequences?" |
| 13196 | But His chosen way? |
| 13196 | But have you noticed how, over and over again He_ couples_ these two-- prayer_ and_ forgiveness? |
| 13196 | But one Sunday noon the sister came in from service and asked,"Who do you think preached to- day?" |
| 13196 | By name? |
| 13196 | Can a man_ make_ himself believe?" |
| 13196 | Can one_ know_ anything certainly about that man''s condition? |
| 13196 | Can we all have faith like that? |
| 13196 | Can you imagine a mountain moving off into the sea-- the Jungfrau, or Blanc, or Rainier? |
| 13196 | Could I telegraph on that wire? |
| 13196 | Did some feeling of impatience break out among the disciples that they could not be allowed a little leisure? |
| 13196 | Do you think_ you_ would have slept much? |
| 13196 | Does Prayer Influence God? |
| 13196 | Does Prayer Influence God? |
| 13196 | Does Prayer Influence God? |
| 13196 | Does a mother think into her child''s needs, the food, and clothing and the extras too, the luxuries? |
| 13196 | Does a wise mother think of her child''s needs into the details, the necessities and the loving extras? |
| 13196 | Does n''t it say something of that sort in the Book?" |
| 13196 | Does the fluid-- it a fluid? |
| 13196 | For_ Jesus''_ sake? |
| 13196 | Had he been wrong all those years? |
| 13196 | Have you ever thought that Jesus had a keen sense of the ludicrous? |
| 13196 | He says,"Master, how many times_ must_ I forgive a man? |
| 13196 | His own way? |
| 13196 | How does it come to pass that a man turns a few handles, and miles away great wheels begin to revolve, and enormous power is manifested? |
| 13196 | How shall we best fight? |
| 13196 | I turned to the minister and said,''What does this mean?'' |
| 13196 | Is it any wonder that"she was in bitterness of soul"and"wept sore"? |
| 13196 | Is not that a loving God so to listen and yield to my plea? |
| 13196 | It does not mean to ask,"Is this right? |
| 13196 | Let me ask you very softly now: Can He trust you? |
| 13196 | Let me ask you, honestly now; do you think you would have slept much that night? |
| 13196 | Long- suffering over these praying ones? |
| 13196 | Long- suffering? |
| 13196 | May We Pray with Assurance for the Conversion of Our Loved Ones? |
| 13196 | Mr. Moody said,"I turned and said to the minister,''What_ does_ this mean?'' |
| 13196 | Now what was the explanation of that marvellous Sunday and days following? |
| 13196 | Patience? |
| 13196 | Shall I say, Father_ save_ Me from this hour? |
| 13196 | Shall not we, who have been tracing these steps in His prayer life, go back over them again and again until we breathe in His very spirit of prayer? |
| 13196 | Shall we bow and ask forgiveness for our sin, and petty stubbornness that has been thwarting the Master''s love- plan? |
| 13196 | Shall we follow for a day one who has gotten the true perspective? |
| 13196 | Shall we not put out the thing that is wrong? |
| 13196 | Shall we spell that word discipline with a final g instead of e-- discipling, so the love of it may be plainer to our near- sightedness? |
| 13196 | Sundays, after church service, the sick woman would ask,"Any special interest in church to- day?" |
| 13196 | Talks about the certainty of prayer being answered are very apt to bring this question:"What about Paul''s thorn?" |
| 13196 | Tell me, is not that a very much more loving God than the other conception suggests? |
| 13196 | The great question for me then in praying for some personal thing is this: Do_ I_ know what_ He_ knows I need? |
| 13196 | Then on a side remaining, the tender personal side, He is-- loving? |
| 13196 | Then the minister said to Mr. Moody,"What''ll I do with these people? |
| 13196 | Then this forgiven man went out and found a fellow servant who owed him-- how much do you think? |
| 13196 | To please Him? |
| 13196 | Was it due to his overtired nerves? |
| 13196 | Was some of the transfiguring glory still lingering in that great face? |
| 13196 | Wednesday nights, after prayer- meetings,"Any special interest in the service to- night? |
| 13196 | Well, if_ you_ do not pray for them who will? |
| 13196 | What is the keyword of the book, occurring oftener than any other? |
| 13196 | What is yours? |
| 13196 | What''s the difficulty? |
| 13196 | What_ can_ be so vigilant and keen as love? |
| 13196 | What_ was_ the consequence to her? |
| 13196 | Where''s the Master? |
| 13196 | Who is the real foe? |
| 13196 | Why not? |
| 13196 | Why was it? |
| 13196 | Will some one kindly explain? |
| 13196 | Will some one kindly explain? |
| 13196 | Will you notice how men give? |
| 13196 | With eyes big, and voices dejected, the question wrung itself out of their sinking hearts,"Why could not_ we_ cast it out?" |
| 13196 | Would that not seem quite sufficient? |
| 13196 | Yet I might sit in my room and tick away by the hour wholly absorbed, and use most beautiful persuasive language-- what is the good? |
| 13196 | You think not? |
| 13196 | [ 44] Does not this very strong language suggest that possibly the disciples had been conferred with by the revolutionary leaders? |
| 13196 | _ Is_ that true? |
| 13196 | _ Or_, long- suffering in dealing righteously with some stubborn adversary-- which? |
| 13196 | is this wrong?" |
| 13196 | or put in the thing the Master wants in? |
| 13196 | or, what?--pass_ through_ the wire? |
| 13196 | or,_ around_ the wire? |
| 13196 | there''s just the rub; it is evidently an old story, this thing of not receiving-- why? |
| 22148 | 1, The first thing which the believer, who is in such difficulties, has to ask himself is, Am I in a calling in which I can abide with God? |
| 22148 | 30, 31, it is written:"Sirs, what must I do to be saved? |
| 22148 | And do you really lean upon me, the living God, in your service here? |
| 22148 | And how should our Father do otherwise? |
| 22148 | And since He has not, is it not a plain indication that, for the present, I should remain a journeyman,( or shopman, or clerk, as the case may be)?" |
| 22148 | And what was it that gave me peace? |
| 22148 | And who at present belonged to our number? |
| 22148 | And why? |
| 22148 | Are the things of God, the honour of His name, the welfare of His Church, the conversion of sinners, and the profit of your own soul, your chief aim? |
| 22148 | But if we do not believe that God will help us, could we be at peace? |
| 22148 | But is this indeed the spirit in which the children of God generally are engaged in their calling? |
| 22148 | But perhaps it may be stated: Why do you not take the bread on credit? |
| 22148 | But what did the Lord do? |
| 22148 | But what is the right way of looking at the matter? |
| 22148 | But what was the result? |
| 22148 | By what passages, then, for instance, may I make out that I am a child of God, or born again? |
| 22148 | Dear Reader, does your soul long to be rich towards God, to lay up treasures in heaven? |
| 22148 | Dear reader, do you know the living God? |
| 22148 | Do I depend upon Him alone for the salvation of my soul? |
| 22148 | Do I expect forgiveness for my sins on account of living a better life in future? |
| 22148 | Do I take Him to be the one whom God declares Him to be, i. e. His beloved Son in whom He is well pleased? |
| 22148 | Do I trust in my own exertions for salvation? |
| 22148 | Do you make it your primary business, your first great concern to seek the kingdom of God and His righteousness? |
| 22148 | Have I to wait till I feel that they are forgiven, before I may take comfort concerning this matter? |
| 22148 | How are the means to come? |
| 22148 | How are we justified, or constituted just ones, before God? |
| 22148 | How can I get over the plain word of the Lord, which is to the contrary, even if the first four points could be satisfactorily settled? |
| 22148 | How may I know that I am one of the elect? |
| 22148 | How may I know that I shall be saved? |
| 22148 | How may I know that my sins are forgiven? |
| 22148 | How may the case be altered for the better? |
| 22148 | How shall I do when sickness befalls my family, or when other trials productive of expense come upon me, if I do not make provision for such seasons? |
| 22148 | How will the offerings come in? |
| 22148 | If the latter be the case, then, though you may have all the necessaries of life, yet could you be surprised if you had them not? |
| 22148 | Is He, in Jesus, your Father? |
| 22148 | Is it not rather His will that my means should be spent in another way? |
| 22148 | Is it really a good cause in which I am called upon to become surety? |
| 22148 | It might also be said by a brother whose earnings are small, should I also give according to my earnings? |
| 22148 | Need such parents despair? |
| 22148 | Now what is the food for the inner man? |
| 22148 | Now, suppose our expenses are week after week, 30l., 40l., 50l., or 60l.? |
| 22148 | Or does your business, or your family, or your own temporal concerns, in some shape or other primarily occupy your attention? |
| 22148 | Or, do I depend only upon this, that Jesus died upon the cross to save sinners-- and that Jesus fulfilled the law of God to make sinners righteous? |
| 22148 | Or, must I wait till I have in some powerful way a portion of the word of God applied to my mind, to assure me of it? |
| 22148 | The last words of which I spoke were:"Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?" |
| 22148 | The point is simply this: Do I confess with my mouth the Lord Jesus? |
| 22148 | The question here again is simply this, Have I received the Lord Jesus, i.e., Do I believe in His name? |
| 22148 | The question here again is: Do I believe in the Lord Jesus? |
| 22148 | The question may be asked even now,"Are these the only labourers?" |
| 22148 | The question therefore simply is this: Do I believe in the Lord Jesus? |
| 22148 | The questions therefore to be put to ourselves are simply these: Do I walk in utter carelessness? |
| 22148 | The tenth part, or the fifth part, or the third part, or one- half, or more? |
| 22148 | Under other circumstances the question would have naturally arisen in my mind, And what will you do for support, if the boxes are removed? |
| 22148 | What does it matter, whether you pay immediately for it, or at the end of the month, or the quarter, or the half- year? |
| 22148 | What is now to be done? |
| 22148 | What is to be done in such a case? |
| 22148 | What obliges the person who wishes me to become surety for him, to need a surety? |
| 22148 | What shall we do now? |
| 22148 | What then is to be done? |
| 22148 | Where should the heart of the disciple of the Lord Jesus be, but in heaven? |
| 22148 | Why am I engaged in this trade or profession? |
| 22148 | Why does this post- office- order not come a few days sooner or later? |
| 22148 | Why should it be so often said, and sometimes with a measure of ground, or even much ground:"Believers are bad servants, bad tradesmen, bad masters?" |
| 22148 | Will any come in? |
| 22148 | Will it be the least particle of uneasiness to their minds, or will their children be the worse for it? |
| 22148 | Yet do all the children of God give even the tenth part of what the Lord gives them? |
| 22148 | You ask, How may I, a true believer, have my faith strengthened? |
| 22148 | or, What shall we drink? |
| 22148 | or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? |
| 22148 | what would become of us and our wives and children? |
| 20245 | Are your bankers still Messrs. Stuckey and Co. of Bristol, and are their hankers still Messrs. Robarts and Co. of London? 20245 What is a Christian?" |
| 20245 | 20 � 23? |
| 20245 | 3, Am I not undertaking too much for my bodily strength and mental powers, by thinking about another Orphan- House? |
| 20245 | 4, Am I not going beyond the measure of my faith in thinking about enlarging the work so as to double or treble it? |
| 20245 | 5, Is not this a delusion of Satan, an attempt to cast me down altogether from my sphere of usefulness, by making me go beyond my measure? |
| 20245 | 6, Is it not also, perhaps, a snare to puff me up, by attempting to build a very large Orphan- House? |
| 20245 | And how did we get them? |
| 20245 | And what provision is there in the way of Orphan establishments, it may be asked? |
| 20245 | And why not? |
| 20245 | Are not ten pounds, thus received out of the hands of our Heavenly Father, as the result of faith in God, most precious? |
| 20245 | Are you prepared for eternity? |
| 20245 | But how does it work, when we thus anticipate God, by going our own way? |
| 20245 | But what was to be done under these circumstances? |
| 20245 | But why not, you may say, dear reader? |
| 20245 | Could it be otherwise? |
| 20245 | Do I serve God for nought? |
| 20245 | Do you not also see again the hand of God so manifestly stretched out on our behalf this day Dec. 9th? |
| 20245 | Do you not discern His hand, dear reader, in this instance? |
| 20245 | Do you not find it a trying life, and are you not tired of it?" |
| 20245 | Do you not perceive that my fellow- labourers and myself do not wait upon the Lord in vain? |
| 20245 | Do you not see how precious it is to have God to go to, and to find Him ever willing to help those who trust in Him, wherever they be? |
| 20245 | Do you not see that it is not in vain, to make known our requests to the Lord, and to come to Him for everything? |
| 20245 | Do you really believe in Jesus? |
| 20245 | Do you verily depend upon Him alone for the salvation of your soul? |
| 20245 | Does He not, however, tell me by all this: Go forward, my servant, and I will help thee? |
| 20245 | Does it, or does it not? |
| 20245 | Does not the Lord tell me by this, that He will provide another home for Orphans? |
| 20245 | Does the Lord love you less than He loves us? |
| 20245 | Does your heart praise the Lord for His goodness to us? |
| 20245 | Esteemed reader, what do you think of this? |
| 20245 | Had I other friends, from whom to expect the large sum which will be needed to accomplish this? |
| 20245 | Have I then been boasting in God in vain? |
| 20245 | He then said:"Who has allowed you to distribute these books?" |
| 20245 | How can Thy servant know Thy will in this matter? |
| 20245 | How long we may have the opportunity to work for the Lord, who can tell? |
| 20245 | How then could I be tired of carrying on the work of God on such principles as I do? |
| 20245 | How, then, could it be otherwise, but that sooner or later there should come showers of blessing? |
| 20245 | Is it not a pleasant thing, in the end, even for this life, really to trust in God? |
| 20245 | Is it not a privilege to be allowed to obtain future good out of present expending? |
| 20245 | Is it not an honour to help such brethren? |
| 20245 | Is it not like"tempting God,"to think of building another Orphan- House for seven hundred more orphans? |
| 20245 | Is it not manifest how precious it is to carry on God''s work in this way, even with regard to the obtaining of means? |
| 20245 | Is it not manifest that it is most precious, in every way, to depend upon God? |
| 20245 | Is it not, dear reader, a precious thing to trust in the Lord? |
| 20245 | Is not human reason confounded by such instances? |
| 20245 | Is not the hand of God most manifest in such cases? |
| 20245 | Is not this a plain proof that God is both able and willing to help simply in answer to prayer? |
| 20245 | May I not well trust in the Lord, for what is yet needed for the Building Fund? |
| 20245 | May you not do, what we do, under your trials? |
| 20245 | My dear Christian reader, will you not try this way? |
| 20245 | Now, dear reader, did the Lord help this time also? |
| 20245 | Now, looking at it naturally, where is this great sum to come from? |
| 20245 | Or are we better than you? |
| 20245 | Or, when unbelief said, How will you be able to support a thousand Orphans? |
| 20245 | Perhaps the reader may ask: What has been the result of this labour in Germany? |
| 20245 | Some readers may say, And what use was made of the money which was received in this way? |
| 20245 | Suppose now, you were even to succeed in getting this large Orphan House built, how will you be able to provide for 700 other Orphans? |
| 20245 | Unbelief, which said, what will you do with so little as 134l.? |
| 20245 | Well, the Father in heaven said, as it were, by this His dispensation, Art thou willing to give up this child to me? |
| 20245 | What could I say against this? |
| 20245 | What is it that I do? |
| 20245 | When first converted, I should have said, What harm can there be to take some of the money, which has been put by for the Building Fund? |
| 20245 | Whither shall I send it?" |
| 20245 | Will not you also seek to trust in Him, and depend on Him alone in all your everyday''s concerns, and in all spiritual matters too? |
| 20245 | Will she need such ornaments before her Lord? |
| 20245 | Will she regret having given them for His work? |
| 20245 | Will she regret the gift now? |
| 20245 | Will you not do this, my dear brethren in Christ? |
| 20245 | Will you not have still greater trials of faith? |
| 20245 | Will you not, dear reader, taste and see that the Lord is good, and that it is a blessed thing to put our trust in Him? |
| 20245 | Would it not be going beyond my measure naturally with reference to mental and bodily strength? |
| 20245 | Would not this be going beyond my measure spiritually? |
| 20245 | [ Do not all these objections only hold good, I said to myself, if I were needlessly to set about building? |
| 20245 | does your heart admire the hand of God in these instances? |
| 20245 | for the Orphans, from a distance of 3,000 miles? |
| 20245 | from this Christian brother at Madras? |
| 20245 | remain? |
| 7026 | ''What''s the matter with your father?'' 7026 And why do n''t you steal any more?" |
| 7026 | And you do n''t suppose there is a happy land? |
| 7026 | Boy, what are you doing there? |
| 7026 | But, Mother,very pettishly said the boy,"you are sick all the time-- how do you know?" |
| 7026 | Ca n''t Jesus make Annie see her mama? |
| 7026 | DOES THIS RAILROAD LEAD TO HEAVEN? |
| 7026 | Did he give you all this, my child? |
| 7026 | Did she go over this railroad, and are you going to see her now? |
| 7026 | Did you ever hear of Jesus? |
| 7026 | Did you ever steal? |
| 7026 | Did you know Winnie Lewis, my lad? |
| 7026 | Do you know who he was? |
| 7026 | Do you trust Him, too? |
| 7026 | Going to sing there? |
| 7026 | Harvey, are faith and hope nothing? |
| 7026 | How came you to think you''d find shoes in a jug? |
| 7026 | How do you know? |
| 7026 | I think not,he answered,"Why did you think so?" |
| 7026 | Is God there? |
| 7026 | Is Jesus there? |
| 7026 | Is she gone? |
| 7026 | Is that you, Jesus? |
| 7026 | John,said his friend, with an affectionate look,"shall we pray?" |
| 7026 | Know her, is it sir? 7026 Look here, child; where did you learn that song?" |
| 7026 | Oh, Father, did you get a new jug and were they in it? |
| 7026 | Oh, Mother, may I go skating? 7026 Oh, let my parents live Till I a woman grow; For if they die, what can A little orphan do?" |
| 7026 | Thank you sir, but please, sir, would you like to hear me sing a little hymn? |
| 7026 | Was Winnie a relative of yours? |
| 7026 | Well my little one, are you better? |
| 7026 | Well, who''s there? |
| 7026 | Well-- and what then? |
| 7026 | Well? |
| 7026 | What ails mother''s Pet? 7026 What are you doing here?" |
| 7026 | What are you glad for, my dear? |
| 7026 | What are you hiding from? |
| 7026 | What did you say? |
| 7026 | What did your father beat you like that for? |
| 7026 | What difference will that make? |
| 7026 | What do you mean, Anna? |
| 7026 | What do you sing, child? |
| 7026 | What shall I say to God about it, Mama? |
| 7026 | What would we ever do without our Comforter, son? |
| 7026 | Where do you live my dear? |
| 7026 | Where is He? |
| 7026 | Where''s your father? |
| 7026 | Where''s your mother? |
| 7026 | Who pays your fare? |
| 7026 | Why did you? |
| 7026 | Why do you wish I had been there, Ella? |
| 7026 | Will you please tell me where Jesus Christ is? 7026 Will you tell me about it, my friend?" |
| 7026 | Will you wake me up then so that I may see my ma and your little girl and Jesus? |
| 7026 | Yes, but if I should die, will you promise to love Jesus just as I do, and meet me in heaven? |
| 7026 | You are not naughty now, my dear, are you? |
| 7026 | You do; and who is your teacher? |
| 7026 | A brawny German in broken accent asks:"O children, what is the matter?" |
| 7026 | A few boys gathered around the poor lad, and asked in a kind way( for a street Arab):"Say, Johnny, why do n''t you go to the lodges?" |
| 7026 | A still, small voice she heard within her soul--"What is it child? |
| 7026 | A voice seemed to say:''Why do n''t you go out as I tell you? |
| 7026 | Addressing herself once more to the conductor, she asked him,"Do you love Jesus? |
| 7026 | After awhile he said,''My, I am so cold,''and I said:''Where''s your overcoat?'' |
| 7026 | Ah, where was Bess, the"little mother,"who in that brief moment resigned herself to death? |
| 7026 | And Bess? |
| 7026 | And after all, would what they called religion make them any worse children? |
| 7026 | At last a man rushed into the chapel, ran up the aisle and sank upon his knees by the side of his child, exclaiming:"What do you want of me?" |
| 7026 | But is it not a thousand times more wicked for you not to love Him who has loved you so much more than that little one loved her father? |
| 7026 | But what was this? |
| 7026 | Can you not imagine that tears often filled the eyes of that father when he spoke of his sainted little one? |
| 7026 | Could he not see where the heart of his darling Ella was? |
| 7026 | Could it be that what these poor fanatics, as he had always called them, said about the future world was correct? |
| 7026 | Did you ever hear such grand music? |
| 7026 | Did you tell me there be bears down at the sand- bank when there are n''t any?" |
| 7026 | Do you commend it earnestly to the care of its God and Savior? |
| 7026 | Does God say that?" |
| 7026 | Does not this recall the love of the Lord Jesus Christ to you who read? |
| 7026 | Fathers, may not the hands of the"thousands slain"make mute appeal to you? |
| 7026 | He did not like the idea of getting a whipping for it, as was very likely, but how could he resist the temptation of making sure about those shoes? |
| 7026 | He had given his consent for them to attend the Sunday School, and should he now be offended because they had yielded to its influence? |
| 7026 | How can you help loving such a precious Savior? |
| 7026 | I asked her with surprise:"Why madam, have you not got anything to eat?" |
| 7026 | I said"Sing?" |
| 7026 | I said:"What are your neighbors, that you should suffer among them?" |
| 7026 | I sat down on the front of the bed and said:"Jennie, is there any there that you know?" |
| 7026 | I turned to the mother, and said:"Madam, you have potatoes to eat, I suppose?" |
| 7026 | If they meet in heaven, do you think that daughter will be sorry that she sacrificed her life for her father''s sake? |
| 7026 | In a low, hesitating voice, she asked the woman:"Do you know Jesus Christ?" |
| 7026 | Is he sick?" |
| 7026 | It was found the next morning; and who shall describe their feelings as they clasped the little form to their bosoms? |
| 7026 | Let us encourage benevolence and gentleness and if he wishes to go without the fur- trimmed coat, why not do as he asks?" |
| 7026 | Mama?" |
| 7026 | Mister, do you sing to your little girl about the railroad that goes to heaven? |
| 7026 | Mr. Lowe made no reply-- how could he? |
| 7026 | Now, do not shut the windows tonight, will you?" |
| 7026 | Oh, Wife, is there mercy for a wretch like me?" |
| 7026 | Oh, sister, he has gone in again; what shall we do?" |
| 7026 | Ought he not rather to have expected this? |
| 7026 | Said the conductor:"Where are you going?" |
| 7026 | Shall I tell her that I saw her pa on Jesus''railroad? |
| 7026 | Shall I?" |
| 7026 | She asked the conductor:"Mister, may I lie here until we get to heaven?" |
| 7026 | She had not talked long until nearly every child in the room was in tears, and how shall we describe that touching scene? |
| 7026 | She looked up at the pastor earnestly, and inquired:"Is that so? |
| 7026 | She looked up to my face and said:"''Are you the man that preached last night and said that Christ could save to the uttermost?'' |
| 7026 | She spoke,"I heard them-- it is Henry; oh, I knew he went-- is he dead?" |
| 7026 | She then said,"Mister, does this railroad lead to heaven, and does Jesus travel on it?" |
| 7026 | Should he yield to thin influence and be led by his children to Christ? |
| 7026 | The mother observing this, repeated her thanks and finally said:"Would you like me to pay you for bringing my child home?" |
| 7026 | Then she said:"Now, Kittie, you will forgive me for ever being cross to you wo n''t you?" |
| 7026 | Turning her eyes again upon the conductor, she interrogated him again,"What shall I tell your little girl when I see her? |
| 7026 | Was he a man? |
| 7026 | Was my hard work and were the cares of business driving me out of my wits? |
| 7026 | Was there a heaven, and a hell, and a God of justice? |
| 7026 | Was there no one near to hear his distressing cries, and rescue the poor child from their cruel grip? |
| 7026 | Was there something in religion after all? |
| 7026 | Were his darling children right, and was he alone wrong? |
| 7026 | What could I do? |
| 7026 | What could be the matter? |
| 7026 | What could he do but kneel down and cry to God to have mercy upon him? |
| 7026 | What could it mean? |
| 7026 | What is it?" |
| 7026 | What shall we do for her? |
| 7026 | What should he do? |
| 7026 | What should she do? |
| 7026 | Which was to go? |
| 7026 | Why do we not help the children to get saved, letting them feel that they are really one with us? |
| 7026 | Will you forgive me, sister, for being cross to you?" |
| 7026 | Will you not ask Him to forgive you and help you to live for Him the rest of your life? |
| 7026 | Wo n''t you, now?" |
| 7026 | Would n''t you like to see heaven and Jesus, and your little girl?" |
| 7026 | You have a little girl, have n''t you?" |
| 7026 | [ Illustration] The brother did not seem to hear as he asked,"You know what being baptized means, Winnie?" |
| 7026 | [ Illustration] You, fond mother, so busy hour after hour preparing and adorning garments for their pretty little form, have you forgotten the soul? |
| 7026 | [ Illustration]"Who broke my jug?" |
| 7026 | [ Illustration]"Why, boy, who beat you like that?" |
| 7026 | he said,"Did you tell me a wrong story? |
| 7026 | he said,"what put such a wild thought into your head? |
| 7026 | why have you brought a stranger into this horrible place?'' |
| 27288 | _ Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?_must be the stay of the believer at such a time, and, by grace, it is my stay now. |
| 27288 | About four hours after, a sister said to me,"Do you want any money?" |
| 27288 | Am I not going beyond the measure of my faith in thinking about enlarging the work so as to double or treble it? |
| 27288 | Am I not undertaking too much for my bodily strength and my mental powers, by thinking about another Orphan House? |
| 27288 | And how is it now? |
| 27288 | And how should our Father do otherwise? |
| 27288 | And since he has not, is it not a plain indication that for the present I should remain a journeyman( or shopman, or clerk, as the case may be)?" |
| 27288 | And what was it that gave me peace? |
| 27288 | And why not? |
| 27288 | And why? |
| 27288 | Are the things of God, the honor of his name, the welfare of his church, the conversion of sinners, and the profit of your own soul, your chief aim? |
| 27288 | Are you in debt? |
| 27288 | Are you out of debt? |
| 27288 | But how does it work, when we thus anticipate God, by going our own way? |
| 27288 | But how were we to obtain warmth? |
| 27288 | But is this indeed the spirit in which children of God generally are engaged in their calling? |
| 27288 | But perhaps it may be asked, Why do you not take the bread on credit? |
| 27288 | But what did the Lord do? |
| 27288 | But what is the result? |
| 27288 | But what is the right way of looking at the matter? |
| 27288 | But what was the result? |
| 27288 | But what was to be done under these circumstances? |
| 27288 | But what was to be done? |
| 27288 | But_ if we do not believe_ that God will help us, could we be at peace? |
| 27288 | Can it be that God has made such promises as these to me, and to such men as I am? |
| 27288 | Dear reader, does your soul long to be rich towards God, to lay up treasures in heaven? |
| 27288 | Do I serve God for naught? |
| 27288 | Do not men believe that God means what he appears plainly to have asserted? |
| 27288 | Do you make it your primary business, your first great concern, to seek the kingdom of God and his righteousness? |
| 27288 | Do you really believe in Jesus? |
| 27288 | Do you verily depend upon him alone for the salvation of your soul? |
| 27288 | Does he not, however, tell me by all this, Go forward, my servant, and I will help thee? |
| 27288 | Has it ever occurred to the reader that the Lord only can preserve any one engaged in business from making bad debts? |
| 27288 | Have I been boasting in God in vain? |
| 27288 | Have you any_ present_ need for the Institution under your care? |
| 27288 | He can not doubt that God has in a remarkable manner, at various times, answered his prayers; why should he not always answer them? |
| 27288 | He sums up the whole in this remarkable language:--"And what shall I say more? |
| 27288 | How can I get over the plain word of the Lord, which is to the contrary, even if the first four points could be satisfactorily settled? |
| 27288 | How can we sufficiently praise the Lord for still continuing to use us in his service? |
| 27288 | How may the case be altered for the better? |
| 27288 | How shall I do when sickness befalls my family, or when other trials productive of expense come upon me, if I do not make provision for such seasons? |
| 27288 | How then could I be tired of carrying on the work of God on such principles as I do? |
| 27288 | How would we decide if a similar case should occur in physics? |
| 27288 | If an invaluable treasure is here reserved for the believer, he asks, why should I not receive my portion of it? |
| 27288 | If it be asked, But why should I rise early? |
| 27288 | If the latter be the case, then, though you may have all the necessaries of life, yet could you be surprised if you had them not? |
| 27288 | In a universe governed by moral law, why should not moral laws take precedence of all others? |
| 27288 | Is it not also, perhaps, a snare to puff me up, in attempting to build a very large Orphan House? |
| 27288 | Is it not an honor to help such brethren? |
| 27288 | Is it not like"tempting God,"to think of building another Orphan House for seven hundred more orphans? |
| 27288 | Is it not manifest how precious it is to carry on God''s work in this way, even with regard to the obtaining of means? |
| 27288 | Is it not manifest that it is most precious in every way to depend upon God? |
| 27288 | Is it not rather his will that my means should be spent in another way? |
| 27288 | Is it really a good cause in which I am called upon to become surety? |
| 27288 | Is not human reason confounded by such instances? |
| 27288 | Is not this a delusion of Satan, an attempt to cast me down altogether from my sphere of usefulness, by making me to go beyond my measure? |
| 27288 | Is not this a plain proof that God is both able and willing to help simply in answer to prayer? |
| 27288 | Is prayer really a power with God, or is it merely an expedient by which our own piety may be cultivated? |
| 27288 | It may lastly be said, But how shall I set about rising early? |
| 27288 | It might also be said by a brother whose earnings are small, should_ I_ also give according to my earnings? |
| 27288 | It might be asked, How much shall I give of my income? |
| 27288 | It might be asked, How much time shall I allow myself for rest? |
| 27288 | Lord, how can thy servant know thy will in this matter? |
| 27288 | May I not well trust in the Lord for what is yet needed for the building fund? |
| 27288 | My soul laid hold on that word,"Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?" |
| 27288 | Need such parents despair? |
| 27288 | Now what is the food for the inner man? |
| 27288 | Now, looking at it naturally, where is this great sum to come from? |
| 27288 | Now, ought not the saints in our day also to act according to this word? |
| 27288 | Or does your business, or your family, or your own temporal concerns, in some shape or other_ primarily_ occupy your attention? |
| 27288 | Perhaps the reader may ask, What has been the result of this labor in Germany? |
| 27288 | Shall I have enough myself the next month? |
| 27288 | Suppose, now, you were even to succeed in getting this large Orphan House built, how will you be able to provide for seven hundred other orphans? |
| 27288 | That many enemies would laugh, were the Lord to withhold supplies, and say, Did we not foretell that this enthusiasm would come to nothing? |
| 27288 | The gentleman, turning to the matron, said,"Have you a good stock?" |
| 27288 | The last words on which I spoke were,"Said I not unto thee that if thou wouldest believe thou shouldest see the glory of God?" |
| 27288 | The tenth part, or the fifth part, or the third part, or one half, or more? |
| 27288 | This second point, then, Why do I carry on this business? |
| 27288 | To whom did I make known our wants, except to those who are closely connected with the work? |
| 27288 | Well, the Father in heaven said, as it were, by this his dispensation, Art thou willing to give up this child to me? |
| 27288 | Were these promises limited to prophetical or apostolical times; or have they been left as a legacy to all believers until the end shall come? |
| 27288 | What could I say against this? |
| 27288 | What does it matter whether you pay immediately for it, or at the end of the month, or the quarter, or the half year? |
| 27288 | What is meant by the prayer of faith? |
| 27288 | What is now to be done? |
| 27288 | What is the limit within which they may be safely received as a ground of practical reliance? |
| 27288 | What is the significance of the passages both in the New Testament and the Old which refer to it? |
| 27288 | What is to be done in such a case? |
| 27288 | What is to be done under these circumstances? |
| 27288 | What obliges the person who wishes me to become surety for him to need a surety? |
| 27288 | What then was to be done? |
| 27288 | What was to be done? |
| 27288 | What, then, are the conditions of this remarkable experiment, if such we may call it? |
| 27288 | When I was first converted, I should have said, What harm can there be to take some of the money which has been put by for the building fund? |
| 27288 | When it is therefore asked, How shall these facts be accounted for? |
| 27288 | Where should the heart of the disciple of the Lord Jesus be, but in heaven? |
| 27288 | Why am I engaged in this trade or profession? |
| 27288 | Why does this post- office order not come a few days sooner or later? |
| 27288 | Why is it, then, that this whole range of revealed truth has so generally been looked upon as an unknown and unexplored region? |
| 27288 | Why should not his prayers be always of the same character? |
| 27288 | Why should we deny that there is a power in prayer to which we have not commonly attained? |
| 27288 | Why should we limit either the goodness or the power of God by our own knowledge of what we call the laws of nature? |
| 27288 | Why should we not admit that"there are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamed of in our philosophy"? |
| 27288 | Will it be the least particle of uneasiness to their minds, or will their children be the worse for it? |
| 27288 | Will you not have still greater trials of faith? |
| 27288 | Wilt thou be pleased to teach him? |
| 27288 | Would it not be going beyond my measure_ naturally_, with reference to mental and bodily strength? |
| 27288 | Would not this be going beyond my measure_ spiritually_? |
| 27288 | Yet do all the children of God give even the_ tenth_ part of what the Lord gives them? |
| 27288 | You ask, How may I, a true believer, have my faith strengthened? |
| 27288 | You see I do not care about you, and how are you able to continue to be so kind to me, and thus to serve me?" |
| 27288 | [ Do not all these objections only hold good, I said to myself, if I were_ needlessly_ to set about building? |
| 27288 | and why should not the believer always draw near to God in full confidence that he will do as he has said? |
| 27288 | as the things which you purchase are needful? |
| 27288 | or, What shall we drink? |
| 27288 | or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? |
| 27288 | or, if we believe that he means it, do we fear the charge of fanaticism if we openly avow that we take him at his word? |
| 27288 | we inquire, to what known law can they be referred? |
| 22295 | For what shall I do when God shall rise to judge? 22295 [ 108] II Is It Fitting To Pray? |

| 11553 | A singing school,said his wife,"how will you do that?" |
| 11553 | But how do you know He hears you? |
| 11553 | But how is this,I inquired,"How did you know of_ me_?" |
| 11553 | But where should he go? 11553 But, are there not times, auntie, for instance, when your son is sick, when you can not see where rent and food is coming from?" |
| 11553 | Come for what? |
| 11553 | Did you ever hear that I lived here? |
| 11553 | Did you repeat the collect I taught you? |
| 11553 | Do they come every time, auntie? 11553 Do you think so, Johnny?" |
| 11553 | Does not this little incident illustrate the power of prayer? 11553 How is it you never signed before?" |
| 11553 | How is this? |
| 11553 | I arose quickly, hastened to her room and said to her,''Laura, do you want to get well?'' 11553 I looked at him with surprise, and inquired,''Are you a Christian?'' |
| 11553 | If medical skill was unavailing, was there not prayer? 11553 If you expect so great a gift from the Lord, he asks of you,''_ What are you willing to do for me_?''" |
| 11553 | Is anybody with him? |
| 11553 | Is anything too hard for the Lord? |
| 11553 | Is that his habit so early in the morning? |
| 11553 | Mother, will you pray now to Jesus to cure me_? 11553 No, my child-- why do you ask that?" |
| 11553 | One day a lady friend said to me:''Would you like some nice sewing, easy to do?'' 11553 Shall I take all this money to myself?" |
| 11553 | She said not a word-- why should she? 11553 To whom then will ye liken Me, or shall I be equal? |
| 11553 | Well, Tom, what gives you so much joy? |
| 11553 | Well, William, how are you? |
| 11553 | Well, but how did you pray? |
| 11553 | Well, did you get the flour? |
| 11553 | What are you looking at, Tom? |
| 11553 | Why, Johnny, should your sister read the Bible? |
| 11553 | Why, why was I left, old and rheumatic and useless, and Mary, a smart, busy, capable woman taken away without a minute''s warning? |
| 11553 | Yes,I replied,"but,"-- Before I could go farther he again interrupted me:"Oh, Doctor, is there nothing, nothing that will save her? |
| 11553 | You once very poor? |
| 11553 | _ But can you imagine our surprise when, at our evening prayer meeting, this same Universalist came in_? 11553 _ Do you think that_ THE LORD_ will come down from heaven and buy me a pair of shoes_?" |

| 11553 | ''Do n''t you know who sent them?'' |
| 11553 | ''Do you believe Jesus can cure you?'' |
| 11553 | ''Have you a sewing machine?'' |
| 11553 | ''Have you anything to eat?'' |
| 11553 | ''How did you get here? |
| 11553 | ''I answered,''The Lord sent it, I know; where could it come from?'' |
| 11553 | ''If,''said Mrs. F.,''faith is to cure you, why go to Doctor Cullis, or to any one? |
| 11553 | ''That is right; so you believe you will have it by praying for it?'' |
| 11553 | ''Well, then leave it with Him; have you opened your letters?'' |
| 11553 | ''Well,''said he,''_ will you tell me what I am waiting here for? |
| 11553 | ''Well,''said he,''how do you know, have you prayed about it?'' |
| 11553 | ''What did your physician say?'' |
| 11553 | ''What is it?'' |
| 11553 | ''What is its price?'' |
| 11553 | ''What were the numbers?'' |
| 11553 | ''What will you do for breakfast?'' |
| 11553 | ''What will you do now?'' |
| 11553 | ''Where is it to be found?'' |
| 11553 | ''Why do you think so?'' |
| 11553 | ''Why do you think so?'' |
| 11553 | ''Will four hundred pounds be an adequate recompense?'' |
| 11553 | ''Will you pray with me that the Lord may, in some way, delay the train at the junction?'' |
| 11553 | ''Would it be possible for you to hurry a little?'' |
| 11553 | ''Yes,''was the reply;''but who are you?'' |
| 11553 | ''_ What gale_?'' |
| 11553 | --to which we replied properly; then he asked:''What is the news from Nueva Leon?'' |
| 11553 | 18:9; remarking,''Are not those precious promises? |
| 11553 | A little girl about four years of age being asked,"Why do you pray to God?" |
| 11553 | After the ordinary salutation, he asked:(_ ¿de adonde vienen y adonde van?_)''From whence have you come, and where are you going?'' |
| 11553 | After the ordinary salutation, he asked:(_ ¿de adonde vienen y adonde van?_)''From whence have you come, and where are you going?'' |
| 11553 | And could not the same Lord who chose to heal through medicines, also heal without them? |
| 11553 | And why should it not? |
| 11553 | And would you sooner rest your decision on a gambler''s test, than on God''s promise? |
| 11553 | Are you not concerned about your welfare?'' |
| 11553 | As Mrs. Furlong went to give it, Miss Jordan said to her,"Do you want to throw that medicine away?" |
| 11553 | But how? |
| 11553 | But the morning studies produced no change in the unsettled state of the question, what shall I preach from to- day? |
| 11553 | By- and- by the question was repeated,"Mamma, are you there?" |
| 11553 | Can nobody, nobody save my sister?" |
| 11553 | Can that be for us? |
| 11553 | Can there be any true life of faith that does not include this? |
| 11553 | Can we have any better guide?" |
| 11553 | Can you not see that his paying that money back, is a simple impossibility?" |
| 11553 | Could he give these up? |
| 11553 | Could she kneel and thank the Lord? |
| 11553 | Could she move her hand? |
| 11553 | Dear Christian reader, shall the wonderful manifestation of that"purpose"strengthen your faith? |
| 11553 | Did an angel from heaven bring the money?'' |
| 11553 | Do n''t you see Jesus has cured me? |
| 11553 | Do you believe he will, Laura?'' |
| 11553 | Do you go to the Bible for everything?" |
| 11553 | Does not the expression,"Our_ daily_ bread,"mean just this? |
| 11553 | H.--"Well, perhaps so; but the question with me in such cases, is this: What is duty? |
| 11553 | H.--"Why not? |
| 11553 | Have you any special need of five dollars now? |
| 11553 | Have you ever gone to the Lord as directed above, and found in Him, as David did, a very present help in time of trouble? |
| 11553 | Have you no money?'' |
| 11553 | He comes to our house, and we have no carpet; I am sure He must come here very often, does n''t He?'' |
| 11553 | He is here now, Annie; ca n''t you feel Him near? |
| 11553 | He said,''I heard you pray-- you want money, do you? |
| 11553 | He went from his knees to the bed, and took his friend by the hand; again he said,"Dear Luther, why do n''t you let me depart in peace?" |
| 11553 | I inquired of the Bishop,''How did you recover from your sickness?'' |
| 11553 | I promptly responded,"Yes, I will go?" |
| 11553 | I said,''Mc, what''s up now?'' |
| 11553 | I stated all the circumstances of my illness, and was asked if I could trust God to heal me? |
| 11553 | I stepped down the steps to her, and asked,''What is the matter?'' |
| 11553 | I wanted a new hat so much; and the question arose in my mind,''What am I going to do about it?'' |
| 11553 | I went home that night and said to myself, as I went,''_ How do I know but Christ would keep one from drinking if I would ask him_?'' |
| 11553 | I, poor faithless one, was wondering what does this mean? |
| 11553 | If the mother, may call in a second physician, to suggest the cause and the cure, may she not call on God? |
| 11553 | In about an hour, he returned and started back, inquiring,''_ What have you done?'' |
| 11553 | In deep distress, I looked upon the threatening elements, exclaiming over and over,"What shall I do?" |
| 11553 | In his business hours the thought came over him with the depth of emotion,"WHAT CAN I DO? |
| 11553 | In the morning, I said,''Laura, did you sleep well last night?'' |
| 11553 | Is it any objection to that faith to say, the age of miracles is past? |
| 11553 | Is it, then, always permitted for me to pray thus unconditionally respecting temporal concerns? |
| 11553 | Is my reader a poor Christian? |
| 11553 | Is there no evidence in this of a special providence, and that God listens to the prayers of persecuted and distressed children? |
| 11553 | Melancthon roused, looked in the face of Luther, and said,"O Luther, is this you? |
| 11553 | Might her boy ride down to the wharf and see him off? |
| 11553 | Miss Jordan went toward her and said,"Mother, do you want your cane?" |
| 11553 | Must I leave preaching, and attend to a vexatious lawsuit? |
| 11553 | My sister says,''Annie, did you order them?'' |
| 11553 | Now it seemed sure that he was a rogue, but what could be done? |
| 11553 | Placing my hand on his shoulder, I asked,''_ Has n''t God answered the prayer_?'' |
| 11553 | Presently she returned and said,''Are you a Christian?'' |
| 11553 | Q.--"Well; what do you see?" |
| 11553 | Reaching our port they inquired,''Where have you been through the gale?'' |
| 11553 | Realizing the scrutiny and doubt with which I was observed, I said to my father,''What do you think?'' |
| 11553 | Said he to himself,''What shall I do? |
| 11553 | Said she,''_ Well, if I thought he would take a certain text I would like very much to go and hear him._''Said her husband,''_ What text_?'' |
| 11553 | Said they,"Did you see a woman sitting over there,"describing her? |
| 11553 | Shall not the living God have the same right? |
| 11553 | She said,"Please tell me if any one sent you here?" |
| 11553 | So the thought kept in my heart,''Why ca n''t I pray for one?'' |
| 11553 | Some of the persons in the room were weeping, others laughing; the sons came nearer the bed, and asked,"Mother, do you know me? |
| 11553 | Sometimes the thought would intrude,''How can you ask for any given sum-- how do you expect it will come?'' |
| 11553 | The gentleman asked,"Can you read?" |
| 11553 | The little daughter thought that something extraordinary must have happened; and running to her mother with open arms, asked eagerly:''What is it? |
| 11553 | The question of our Lord in Luke xviii., 8,"When the son of man cometh shall he find faith on the earth?" |
| 11553 | Then I asked him,''Is the road safe between us and Matamoras?'' |
| 11553 | Then it seemed to her that the Saviour came to her and said,''M----, what aileth thee?'' |
| 11553 | Then she waited as if for an answer, and then added,''_ Wo n''t you, please, God_?'' |
| 11553 | Then turning to the younger sister, he said,"_ How is it, are n''t your shoes worn out? |
| 11553 | There was a time when his healing power went forth directly; might it not be put forth directly still?" |
| 11553 | There,"she exclaimed,"can that be what he meant? |
| 11553 | They gathered around her, and said,"Are you not healed, mother?" |
| 11553 | They said,"Did you see a man sitting in the house while you was preaching to- day?" |
| 11553 | WAS IT INSTANTANEOUS? |
| 11553 | Was he necessarily restricted to the one means? |
| 11553 | Was it at all probable that so large a sum of money could be sent in so short a time by any one or any number of persons? |
| 11553 | Was she not fully answered? |
| 11553 | We looked at each other; I could not say a word, until she said,''What does it all mean? |
| 11553 | Well, what will you do for yourself? |
| 11553 | What could I do? |
| 11553 | What could the mother say? |
| 11553 | What now was to be done? |
| 11553 | What possible connection could they have? |
| 11553 | What say you, gentlemen?" |
| 11553 | What shall I do to bear up under this?'' |
| 11553 | What shall I do?'' |
| 11553 | What should be done? |
| 11553 | What the doctor can do for a fellow- practitioner, can not the Great Physician do? |
| 11553 | What was it that made those ministers so sure-- what was it that made the patient recover, at the exact hour that they prayed? |
| 11553 | What was to be done? |
| 11553 | What''s the use seein''? |
| 11553 | When she had finished, the child( but four years of age) said to her mother,"Dear Mother, may I not offer up one more prayer?" |
| 11553 | Where had these pieces of silver come from? |
| 11553 | Where was his money to come from? |
| 11553 | While waiting for the hour, he heard a voice in the next room as if in grave conversation, and asked the servant,"Who is talking in the next room?" |
| 11553 | Who was it that knew of the$ 4 waiting in that pocket and prompted that hand to take it out and give it away? |
| 11553 | Who was it that led that missionary to obtain and send relief just as she was praying for that special amount? |
| 11553 | Who was it that sent the home missionary to the office of a person he had never seen or known? |
| 11553 | Who was it that sent the landlord to the lady and fixed that amount of$ 4 in his mind? |
| 11553 | Why did you go and pray?'' |
| 11553 | Why should not the sick be healed in answer to the prayer of faith? |
| 11553 | Will He not, dear father, hear our prayers for bread_?" |
| 11553 | Will he ever again hear the sweet, sad voice,''Wherefore didst thou doubt?''" |
| 11553 | Will you take it of me?" |
| 11553 | With the well hand she stretched out her paralyzed hand on the table and said:"Dear Lord, will you heal me?" |
| 11553 | Would it not be well for Christians to"test"where they can not understand? |
| 11553 | Would n''t that be a singing school? |
| 11553 | You spoke with great earnestness, and after we sang the last hymn you remarked,''How can I bless whom God has cursed? |
| 11553 | _ The times corresponded!_ Was not that prayer instrumental in preserving that life?" |
| 11553 | _ Was it chance or science? |
| 11553 | _ Were not his Prayers and efforts specially blessed by the Lord in wisdom, for the guidance of our Nation_? |
| 11553 | _''What made that captain change his course against his will?'' |
| 11553 | _''What tune do you play oftenest? |
| 11553 | did you start the singing school?" |
| 11553 | do you know me?" |
| 11553 | hath he spoken and shall he not make it good? |
| 11553 | he repeated, angrily;"you little thief, what brought you here, then?" |
| 11553 | he said, roughly;"where is your money?" |
| 11553 | said I, with surprise,''no letters?'' |
| 11553 | she cried,''there comes an awful tempest, and what_ is_ to become of my corn?'' |
| 11553 | what was it?" |
| 41641 | And may n''t I help? 41641 Are we to stay here always?" |

| 41641 | Bob Curtis? 41641 But I wonder if one need take so much?" |
| 41641 | But is it worth while? |
| 41641 | But sha''n''t you hate to put your feet on bare boards? |
| 41641 | But what cured you in this radical and surprising manner? |

| 41641 | Can you talk while you''re working? |
| 41641 | Colonel Wheeler is such a good traveller; and what would they think if there was a strange family in their rooms? 41641 Could she really be that? |

| 41641 | Day? 41641 Did n''t he laugh?" |

| 41641 | Do you really think that? 41641 Do you think a loose horse can have got into the yard during the night? |
| 41641 | Does n''t it seem like a fortune? 41641 Drowned? |

| 41641 | Is that my fault? |
| 41641 | Mamma, mamma, where are you? 41641 Mamma, mamma,"she cried,"what did I tell you? |
| 41641 | May I think it over for one night? |
| 41641 | May n''t I go to the shipwreck with you, Uncle Si? |
| 41641 | My dear, what can I do? 41641 My poor child, where did you think we had gone?" |
| 41641 | Now, what is this for? |
| 41641 | Oh, did he? 41641 Oh, father, not the Lovers''Tree,--the old fir? |
| 41641 | Oh, how can I thank you? |
| 41641 | Papa,she cried, as soon as she could speak,"what_ has_ happened? |
| 41641 | Plans? |
| 41641 | Shall I ever be like this? |
| 41641 | Sister, are you in there? |
| 41641 | Sure? 41641 That will be good, but how canst thou manage it?" |
| 41641 | Very good; but what kind of presents were you thinking of? |
| 41641 | Was the knife new? |
| 41641 | Well, and suppose they had, and that there had been a trifle of dust on the top of some old trunk, what difference would it have made? 41641 Well, are you not going to get into the boat?" |
| 41641 | Well, stupid, do you know who I am? |
| 41641 | Well, who said anything about the front door? 41641 What am I going to do?" |
| 41641 | What are you going to do with your furniture? |
| 41641 | What can that be? |
| 41641 | What do you suppose it is? |
| 41641 | What does ail her? |
| 41641 | What has she been doing? |
| 41641 | What is that position? 41641 What is the matter? |
| 41641 | What is the matter? |
| 41641 | What on earth does it all mean? |
| 41641 | What sort of a something? |
| 41641 | What tree? |
| 41641 | What was it this time? |
| 41641 | What? |
| 41641 | What_ are_ you doing, if I may be so bold as to ask? |
| 41641 | What_ do_ you mean? |
| 41641 | What_ is_ the matter? |
| 41641 | When my visit to Cousin Vi is over, I must decide on something; but what? 41641 Where hast thou been, children?" |
| 41641 | Where hast thou been, thou idle baggage? |
| 41641 | Where shall we hide from her? 41641 Who did eat the sweetmeat? |
| 41641 | Who is''all,''and what sort of a society is it? |
| 41641 | Why did it come here, any way? |
| 41641 | Why did n''t you have a paper border; it would not have cost nearly as much? |
| 41641 | Why do you let him use feather dusters? 41641 Why do you not say so?" |
| 41641 | Why does she dislike me so? |
| 41641 | Why dost thou not eat it, dear? |
| 41641 | Why will you use such inflated language? |
| 41641 | Why wo n''t you dance with me? |
| 41641 | Why, what are you crying for, little''un? |
| 41641 | Why, what is it? |
| 41641 | Why, what is this? |
| 41641 | Why, what made you do that? |
| 41641 | Why,--what day is it? |
| 41641 | Wo n''t the white muslin soil soon, and wo n''t so much chintz get very dusty? |
| 41641 | Wo n''t you come out and see him to- morrow, Nursey? |
| 41641 | Would you like me to dust your things? |
| 41641 | Yes; what_ do_ you mean? 41641 Yes; which wilt thou have?" |
| 41641 | You know that ugly fire- board in front of my fireplace? 41641 You see that rook up there, my lad, do n''t you?" |
| 41641 | All sorts of somethings; but, first of all-- you know how sick Minnie Banister is, do n''t you, mamma?" |
| 41641 | And how did it happen that you were out? |
| 41641 | And now that is settled, I must think again, what_ am_ I to do? |
| 41641 | And what to me remains of good? |
| 41641 | Are you any better to- day?" |
| 41641 | At last they got tired of this, and the question arose:"What shall we do next?" |
| 41641 | But how could he when the captain had the jacket on? |
| 41641 | But what is the use of such ambitions to a snow- man? |
| 41641 | But what was your idea, Mary?" |
| 41641 | But what''s the use of talking? |
| 41641 | But where to go? |
| 41641 | But who hast thou here?" |
| 41641 | But would Reuben stay? |
| 41641 | Ca n''t we, Elma?" |
| 41641 | Constant Carrington called?" |
| 41641 | Constant Carrington whom you used to see so much of two or three years ago?" |
| 41641 | Did Etelka believe in fairies? |
| 41641 | Did he eat it, or trade it?" |
| 41641 | Did he send a strong angel to lift up the latch of the door? |
| 41641 | Did it rouse thee also, Liebchen?" |
| 41641 | Didst thou meet some count in the forest-- or the landgrave himself?" |
| 41641 | Do any of you know what a"walk"is? |
| 41641 | Do n''t I know the twist of our own cow''s horns? |
| 41641 | Do n''t you know how much nicer it always is to make Christmas presents than to buy them? |
| 41641 | Do n''t you recollect it,--two lovely little shepherdesses in blue Watteaus, holding a flower- basket between them? |
| 41641 | Do n''t you see that I am right?" |
| 41641 | Do n''t you think she might, Miss Talcott? |
| 41641 | Do n''t you think that is a good plan, mamma?" |
| 41641 | Do n''t you think we might make one for Minnie?" |
| 41641 | Do you think Emmy and I could push you up on to the shelf?" |
| 41641 | Does any one exactly understand them? |
| 41641 | Does n''t it seem a pity, Janet?" |
| 41641 | Does n''t it seem as if she was sent to us, mother?" |
| 41641 | Embroider for the Women''s Exchanges and Decorative Art Societies? |
| 41641 | Felicia paid no attention whatever to these observations, only murmured to herself,--"But what to her shall be the end? |
| 41641 | Georgie glanced at him vaguely, as at a stranger; then recognizing an old friend, she jumped up, exclaiming,"Why Bob-- Mr. Curtis,--how do you do? |
| 41641 | Georgie,"coaxingly,"why not go for once with me? |
| 41641 | Had no one missed her? |
| 41641 | Had she been dreaming? |
| 41641 | Had the time which seemed to her so long really been so short? |
| 41641 | Have I not a pair of eyes in my head? |
| 41641 | Have the Hanburys been to see you?" |
| 41641 | Hey, dame?" |
| 41641 | His father failed, do n''t you remember, and lost all his money, and Bob had to leave Harvard and go into some sort of business?" |
| 41641 | How can a busy household, with milk to set, and milk to skim, and pans to scald, and butter to make, and pigs to feed, find time for a name like that? |
| 41641 | How could Brie get away? |
| 41641 | How could a man like that walk? |
| 41641 | How could our snow- man get at any jam? |
| 41641 | How could she part with these? |
| 41641 | How did he answer her? |
| 41641 | How do you like me now you do see me?" |
| 41641 | How long could she keep it up? |
| 41641 | I say, girl, do you hear me? |
| 41641 | I think I have managed pretty well, do n''t you?" |
| 41641 | If he did n''t, who did?" |
| 41641 | In the name of common decency, could n''t you hunt up something to do, if do you must, except this?" |
| 41641 | Lois had bumped her head, and Emmy''s shoulder was bruised; but what was that? |
| 41641 | May I have some more, Nursey?" |
| 41641 | May we go too, and see them chop? |
| 41641 | Metje, do you think it can be some one who has been drowned?" |
| 41641 | Now, Davy Crocker,''twasn''t ever you who took that bottle?" |
| 41641 | Now, will you do it, and just tell me what you will ask for it all?" |
| 41641 | Oh, Jacque, Jacque,--what were thy blue saucers given thee for? |
| 41641 | Oh, why had this unhappy quarrel arisen? |

| 41641 | Persons, and things that are not persons,"said the White Pair;"what do you mean?" |
| 41641 | Sell the farm? |
| 41641 | Sew? |
| 41641 | She needs it, do n''t she?" |
| 41641 | She, herself, had never seen a fairy or a kobold, it is true; everybody was not thus fortunate, but she might some day, who knew? |
| 41641 | Sure? |
| 41641 | Surely thou canst not mean_ that_?" |
| 41641 | Teach? |
| 41641 | The furniture,--could she get something for that? |
| 41641 | The open window showed the dining- table set for something,--was it tea? |
| 41641 | These were treasures to her, but what were they to any one else? |
| 41641 | Tired already? |
| 41641 | To her perpetual maidenhood--""Who is''her''?" |
| 41641 | WHO ATE THE QUEEN''S LUNCHEON? |
| 41641 | Was she basking in the comfort and tastefulness of her room? |
| 41641 | Was the wood full of these unseen creatures? |
| 41641 | Was this part of the vision? |
| 41641 | Well, what are you going to do next, Elly?" |
| 41641 | What are moods? |
| 41641 | What are you talking about? |
| 41641 | What can be done with twenty dollars? |
| 41641 | What could they do? |
| 41641 | What day of the month is it?" |
| 41641 | What did you get?" |
| 41641 | What did you think it was?" |
| 41641 | What did your girl do with her sweetmeat?" |
| 41641 | What did_ your_ boy do with his sweetmeat, Little Blues? |
| 41641 | What do you mean?" |
| 41641 | What else should one do with a sweetmeat?" |
| 41641 | What is it_ now_, Pierre?" |
| 41641 | What is such a society worth? |
| 41641 | What is the matter-- do tell me?" |
| 41641 | What is the use of beating about the bush in this way?" |
| 41641 | What made you come?" |
| 41641 | What was the fool thinking of? |
| 41641 | What''s the use of buying carpet for_ them_ to stand on?" |
| 41641 | What?" |
| 41641 | When are you going to begin your room? |
| 41641 | Where didst get it, girl? |
| 41641 | Where is the Queen?" |
| 41641 | Where, oh, where were the precious dolls? |
| 41641 | Who ever heard of stockings being put away for always?" |
| 41641 | Who gave it thee?" |
| 41641 | Who has called? |
| 41641 | Who screamed?" |
| 41641 | Why do n''t you speak out? |
| 41641 | Why had she and Wilhelm loved at all, if only to be so unhappy in the end? |
| 41641 | Why had she imagined her cruel? |
| 41641 | Why should you not make them for sale? |
| 41641 | Why, Elly, have you been asleep? |
| 41641 | Why, child, what are you looking so scared about?" |
| 41641 | Wilt thou come too, Hilda?" |
| 41641 | Wo n''t it be lovely? |
| 41641 | Would fifty dollars a month be enough?" |
| 41641 | Would n''t it be fun if it was? |
| 41641 | Would they not be happier and better and kinder for the gold which she had it in her power to give them? |
| 41641 | Would you mind telling me what it all means?" |
| 41641 | You''ll give us some money to buy them with, wo n''t you, mamma?" |
| 41641 | Your boy traded his away; and what has he got? |
| 41641 | [ Illustration: Recognizing an old friend, she jumped up, exclaiming,"Why Bob-- Mr. Curtis-- how do you do?" |
| 41641 | _ Voilà !_ Do you realize the situation, reader? |
| 41641 | _ Where was the other half?_""What''s that on his finger?" |
| 41641 | _ Where was the other half?_""What''s that on his finger?" |
| 41641 | but how could she? |
| 41641 | clamored eager voices through the closed door,"has n''t the Christ- child come yet?" |
| 41641 | cried Etelka in despair,"must I then go on dancing forever till I die?" |
| 41641 | cried Metje;"are you deaf, maiden, that you do not answer me? |
| 41641 | did n''t they look funny?" |
| 41641 | has anything dreadful happened? |
| 41641 | leave a little of that for somebody else, will you?" |
| 41641 | or"--with a return of suspicion--"is it one of those she gave thee which thou hast dropped?" |
| 41641 | urged Will Benham;"you said you would when we were talking about the party after the Lecture-- don''t you remember?" |
| 41641 | what is jam?" |
| 41641 | what should bring a stranger here at this stormy time? |
| 41641 | what will people think?" |
| 41641 | would n''t it be dreadful if the Queen were to be sick? |
| 44950 | After we had been going about two hours-- Wasn''t it two hours, Dick? |
| 44950 | Ah, Farringford, are you in the scrape? |
| 44950 | Ai n''t you tuckered out? |
| 44950 | And a sister? |
| 44950 | And did n''t you break down this door? 44950 And so you found your father?" |
| 44950 | And then to rob me? |
| 44950 | And you left the oar fast to the line? |
| 44950 | Another of Matt''s brothers? |
| 44950 | Any by the name of Gracewood? |
| 44950 | Anything on the neck? |
| 44950 | Are you satisfied, sir, that I am what I say I am? |
| 44950 | Are you sure he is your father? |
| 44950 | Are you sure, sir? |
| 44950 | At what time? |
| 44950 | Before he took your pocket- book from you? |
| 44950 | But after that? |
| 44950 | But ca n''t you send five as well as three? |
| 44950 | But did n''t my uncle have any money? |
| 44950 | But did you mean to have me help you steal the twenty- four thousand dollars? |
| 44950 | But have n''t you heard from her? |
| 44950 | But how came you at Delaware City? |
| 44950 | But if you keep ahead of her all the time, how shall we get any news from her? |
| 44950 | But suppose they take away the ladder? |
| 44950 | But where did you put it, sir? |
| 44950 | But where is she? |
| 44950 | But where were you going to- night? |
| 44950 | But why did you come back, Phil? |
| 44950 | But you did n''t make any? |
| 44950 | Ca n''t you find one? |
| 44950 | Calm? 44950 Can I make Phil a present of a hundred dollars?" |
| 44950 | Can it be possible that you are my lost child, Philip? |
| 44950 | Can you identify your money? |
| 44950 | Can you lay shingles, Phil? |
| 44950 | Can you make pies and cake? |
| 44950 | Can you? 44950 Could n''t you let me have a little of it?" |
| 44950 | Could you give me some more of the medicine I took last night and this morning? 44950 Dead-- is he?" |
| 44950 | Detective? |
| 44950 | Did Farringford call you his son? |
| 44950 | Did he die of rheumatism? |
| 44950 | Did he have any property? |
| 44950 | Did he know you had this money? |
| 44950 | Did he send for you, sir? |
| 44950 | Did n''t he ask you something about the upper Missouri, and tell you he had an uncle there? 44950 Did n''t you put my pipe out?" |
| 44950 | Did n''t you write a billet to me? |
| 44950 | Did you call him your son? |
| 44950 | Did you come up through that scuttle? |
| 44950 | Did you do that? |
| 44950 | Did you ever hear that he and his wife were on board a steamer which was burned on the upper Missouri? |
| 44950 | Did you ever see these before? |
| 44950 | Did you expect him to trust Phil at sight? |
| 44950 | Did you know him? |
| 44950 | Did you let the room to any other person? |
| 44950 | Did you look along the shore as you came down? |
| 44950 | Did you see anything of the Daylight? |
| 44950 | Did you take on any passengers at Delaware City? |
| 44950 | Die? |
| 44950 | Do n''t I tell you that this young man has been robbed and abused by the villains in this house? |
| 44950 | Do n''t you think they told the truth? |
| 44950 | Do n''t you want to go to bed now? |
| 44950 | Do you call that talking like a gentleman, Phil? |
| 44950 | Do you doubt my word? |
| 44950 | Do you happen to have half a dollar in your pocket, my lad? |
| 44950 | Do you justify this young man in calling you his father, Farringford? |
| 44950 | Do you know either of these parties? |
| 44950 | Do you know him? |
| 44950 | Do you know in what region he is located? |
| 44950 | Do you know me? |
| 44950 | Do you know the name of the person they intended to visit? |
| 44950 | Do you know what Lynch stole from that room? |
| 44950 | Do you know what clothes it had on? |
| 44950 | Do you know where he is now? |
| 44950 | Do you know where my brother is now, young man? |
| 44950 | Do you know where my mother is? |
| 44950 | Do you live at the south? |
| 44950 | Do you live on one meal a day? |
| 44950 | Do you stay here all night? |
| 44950 | Do you still persist in saying that Farringford is your father? |
| 44950 | Do you suppose the Gracewoods are on board of her? |
| 44950 | Do you suppose the boat upset? |
| 44950 | Do you think it would be wrong, sir? |
| 44950 | Do you think you can lift your end of a board? |
| 44950 | Do you wish to go into the steamboat business, Philip? 44950 Do? |
| 44950 | Does that young man get two dollars a day? |
| 44950 | Down stream? |
| 44950 | Gambling? |
| 44950 | Gone to ruin? |
| 44950 | Had he a family? |
| 44950 | Have n''t you any money? |
| 44950 | Have you an envelope? |
| 44950 | Have you any money? |
| 44950 | Have you either the pocket- book or the purse, Farringford? |
| 44950 | Have you found the boat, captain? |
| 44950 | Have you heard from your brother within a few years? |
| 44950 | Have you seen Mr. Farringford to- day? |
| 44950 | Have you the note with you-- the note of Mr.--What''s his name? |
| 44950 | Hope? 44950 How are you, Lynch?" |
| 44950 | How are you, Mr. Leonidas Lynchpinne? |
| 44950 | How are you, Phil Farringford? |
| 44950 | How can you go if the boat remains here? |
| 44950 | How do you do, Farringford? |
| 44950 | How do you do, Mr. Leonidas Lynchpinne? |
| 44950 | How do you happen to be in such a place, then? |
| 44950 | How long before you leave? |
| 44950 | How long have you led such a life? |
| 44950 | How much can you take him for, madam? |
| 44950 | How much farther have we to go? |
| 44950 | How much is it worth? |
| 44950 | How much money did you lose? |
| 44950 | How much money have you, Phil? |
| 44950 | How was Mrs. Gracewood when you left Delaware City? |
| 44950 | I did? |
| 44950 | I do n''t know where to look for one, but I suppose you will not think of living at the Planters''Hotel? |
| 44950 | I will not have my steps dogged by such a fellow as you are? |
| 44950 | In what kind of a shawl was it wrapped when you placed it on the door? |
| 44950 | Is Mr. Clinch at home? |
| 44950 | Is he a brother of Robert Gracewood of Glencoe? |
| 44950 | Is he insane? |
| 44950 | Is he living? |
| 44950 | Is he? 44950 Is n''t our business finished, Philip?" |
| 44950 | Is n''t this the room to which you sent him and me, and did n''t you give him the key? |
| 44950 | Is that where you keep your money? |
| 44950 | Is the family still there? |
| 44950 | Is the man I came with in there? |
| 44950 | Is there one by the name of Leonidas Lynchpinne? |
| 44950 | Is there to be a prayer- meeting this evening? |
| 44950 | Is this it? |
| 44950 | Is this the way you keep my secret? |
| 44950 | Is your mind so weak as that? |
| 44950 | Known me? |
| 44950 | Lost it? 44950 Matt Rockwood had a brother-- did he not?" |
| 44950 | May I ask if you are a relative of Henry Gracewood? |
| 44950 | Mr. Mark Rockwood? |
| 44950 | Must I lose my money for that reason? |
| 44950 | Not a dollar? |
| 44950 | Now, Phil, what do you do? |
| 44950 | Now, how was the child lost? |
| 44950 | On which side did you land? |
| 44950 | Once for all, then, will you clear out, or not? |
| 44950 | Or any name like it? |
| 44950 | Out? 44950 Phil, do you always speak the truth?" |
| 44950 | Shall I give them the note, which I have in my pocket? |
| 44950 | Should I stick to it if I can do better at something else? |
| 44950 | That''s all very well, Phil; but where were you born? |
| 44950 | Then I have no chance, you think? |
| 44950 | Then you did not come to this hotel to see me? |
| 44950 | Then you did not knock him down till he laid hands upon Farringford? |
| 44950 | Then you did take these things from him? |
| 44950 | Then you do n''t call it a crime to knock a man down, and take his purse and pocket- book from him? |
| 44950 | Then you talked over their relationship while the boy held you on the ground? |
| 44950 | This is the note that those ruffians wanted? |
| 44950 | Was he really, though? |
| 44950 | Was he sick long? |
| 44950 | Was the young lady sick? |
| 44950 | Well, Conant, how does Phil get along? |
| 44950 | Well, Phil, how did you get along shingling? |
| 44950 | Well, how did you stop her at last? |
| 44950 | Well, what are they worth? |
| 44950 | Well, what did you do? 44950 Well, what will you do?" |
| 44950 | What Gracewood? |
| 44950 | What are you going to do with that? |
| 44950 | What did he say to him? |
| 44950 | What did you want of me? |
| 44950 | What do you intend to do? |
| 44950 | What do you mean by his son? |
| 44950 | What do you mean by putting your pipe out? |
| 44950 | What do you mean by that? |
| 44950 | What do you mean, Phil? 44950 What do you mean, sir?" |
| 44950 | What do you mean, young man? |
| 44950 | What do you think has become of them? |
| 44950 | What do you want of me? |

| 44950 | Wherefore should I soil the dignity of a gentleman by becoming a thief- taker? |

| 44950 | Why were you so determined to rob me, Lynch? |
| 44950 | Why, where are they? |

| 44950 | Will you go down alone? |
| 44950 | Will you help me get my money back? |
| 44950 | Will you hold your tongue? |
| 44950 | Will you state precisely how that child was lost, sir? |
| 44950 | Would n''t it be just as well that he should pay it over to me, and I will pass it to you? |
| 44950 | Would n''t it have been more economical to stay on board the steamer? |
| 44950 | Wrong? |
| 44950 | You could n''t help it? |
| 44950 | You do n''t mean to say that Farringford here, whom everybody in St. Louis knows, is your father-- do you? |
| 44950 | You do n''t want me any longer? |
| 44950 | You do? |
| 44950 | You had a brother, sir? |
| 44950 | You heard Clinch say that I did not do half as much work as you did? |
| 44950 | You knew Matthew, then? |
| 44950 | You lived near him, then? |
| 44950 | You prefer to stay here-- do you? |
| 44950 | Young man, do you know the character of this house? |
| 44950 | Your business, if you please? |
| 44950 | And so uncle Matt is dead too?" |
| 44950 | Are you afraid of them?" |
| 44950 | Are you ready to give up the note?" |
| 44950 | Are you the one?" |
| 44950 | But what''s it all about? |
| 44950 | But who are you, young man?" |
| 44950 | But why do you say that?" |
| 44950 | But, Farringford, was there no mark or scar of any kind on the child which will enable you to identify him?" |
| 44950 | By the way, Phil, how is the weather on the roof?" |
| 44950 | Ca n''t you tell me now?" |
| 44950 | Captain Davis?" |
| 44950 | Did n''t you hear me tell the whole story in the police station, Mr. Leonidas Lynchpinne?" |
| 44950 | Did you ever hear of such a man?" |
| 44950 | Did you see him take it?" |
| 44950 | Did you speak the truth when you said you had not even half a dollar?" |
| 44950 | Do n''t you know me?" |
| 44950 | Do n''t you see that I am calm? |
| 44950 | Do n''t you think I look like my uncle Matt?" |
| 44950 | Do you happen to have it about you?" |
| 44950 | Do you happen to remember what it is?" |
| 44950 | Do you know anything about it?" |
| 44950 | Do you know, my lad, that I''m telling you all this to save you from whiskey? |
| 44950 | Do you mean to keep the whole of it?" |
| 44950 | Do you suppose anything could have happened to them?" |
| 44950 | Do you take the names of all the passengers?" |
| 44950 | Do you think it is honest to keep him out of his money?" |
| 44950 | Does Mr. Gracewood intend to support you?" |
| 44950 | Does anything go wrong?" |
| 44950 | Farringford?" |
| 44950 | Farringford?" |
| 44950 | Farringford?" |
| 44950 | Farringford?" |
| 44950 | Farringford?" |
| 44950 | Farringford?" |
| 44950 | Farringford?" |
| 44950 | Gracewood?" |
| 44950 | Greenough?" |
| 44950 | Greenough?" |
| 44950 | Have you any left, Redwood?" |
| 44950 | Have you any money?" |
| 44950 | How dare you use that word to me?" |
| 44950 | How did you know anything about it?" |
| 44950 | How old are you, Phil?" |
| 44950 | How old are you, boy?" |
| 44950 | I am now out of business, with less than ten dollars in the world; and why do I ask whether my uncle had any property?" |
| 44950 | I can cook and wash.""What can you cook?" |
| 44950 | In a word, Philip, where did you get your money?" |
| 44950 | Is that so?" |
| 44950 | Louis?" |
| 44950 | Lynch?" |
| 44950 | Lynch?" |
| 44950 | Lynchpinne?" |
| 44950 | Now, can you tell me where this money is?" |
| 44950 | Rockwood?" |
| 44950 | Rockwood?" |
| 44950 | They would do what they could to recover my money; and if they succeeded, where should they send it? |
| 44950 | Was she lost?" |
| 44950 | Were you with him when he died?" |
| 44950 | What can you do?" |
| 44950 | What do you mean to do here in St. Louis? |
| 44950 | What do you mean, you saucy young cub?" |
| 44950 | What do you want of him?" |
| 44950 | What have you been doing up here?" |
| 44950 | What have you there?" |
| 44950 | What note?" |
| 44950 | What should I do? |
| 44950 | What trade do you mean to learn?" |
| 44950 | What was the matter?" |
| 44950 | What was the old man doing?" |
| 44950 | When can I see you and talk over this other matter with you?" |
| 44950 | When did you arrive?" |
| 44950 | When did you see your uncle?" |
| 44950 | Where do you live, Philip?" |
| 44950 | Where is it? |
| 44950 | Where?" |
| 44950 | Which is his room?" |
| 44950 | Why did Lynch send for you to go up into his room?" |
| 44950 | Why should I?" |
| 44950 | Will you be so kind as not to mention the fact to him?" |
| 44950 | Will you go to the Planters''Hotel?" |
| 44950 | Wo n''t you smoke a cigar, Phil?" |
| 44950 | Wo n''t you walk in?" |
| 44950 | You must ask my father?" |
| 44950 | and did n''t he tell you the name of his uncle before you had mentioned it?" |
