12818But from whence comes that danger of rudeness and insult or worse from which man is to protect woman?
12818But need we go into further painful details?

40122Is it not almost inevitable that she should sink?
40122Is it not desirable that these our struggling sisters should live under the conditions that will preserve for them some sort of a"home"feeling?
40122Is it not evident that we should make provision for such a certain need?
40122Is there any reason why they should not, when for the rich the hotel has replaced the inn?
40122Is there even at the back an_ organised_ system, seeking victims and preying on them?
40122Is this the treatment England gives in Christ''s name to His destitute poor?
40122Is this to be deplored or hastened?

40122She said,"I suppose you have been round the town?"
40122Should we give in, and go to our friends a day earlier?
40122Should we go to another workhouse?

40122The question, To what circumstances and surroundings will a respectable destitute woman drift if without employment?

50034You never had any trouble with them?
50034You remember a big crowd of newspaper men being in the room, do n''t you?
50034You saw people in the streets, but you did n''t stop and tell any of them to call a policeman?
50034You say Ella Gingles was a raving maniac?
50034You say you were a good girl-- a perfectly good girl-- up to the time you met Agnes Barrett?
50034You went direct to Ella Gingles''room, did n''t you?
50034You went into Miss Barrett''s lace store for the first time in November?
50034You went to see Captain O''Brien the next day, did you?
50034You were at home on the night Miss Barrett and the other woman called to see Miss Gingles at the La Salle avenue home?
50034You would have given her money if you knew she were starving in your home?
50034Assistant State''s Attorneys Short and Furthman questioned prospective jurors along these lines:"Do you know anything about the Irish lace store?"
50034At the first necessity for importation, how easy is the traffic?
50034Been waiting long?"
50034By Mr. O''Donnell:"And tell us, had she a cut on the inside of the thigh, running crosswise?"
50034Can every one I meet read what I am?"
50034Can you understand?
50034Could an innocent young woman sustain the horror of such a climax?
50034Did n''t you call yourself Ella Raymond?"
50034Did n''t you see me take it out of her nightgown?"
50034Did not Ella have her own stockings on?"
50034Did you ever see that before?"
50034Did you really see any cuts?"
50034Did you see the scratches on her arms and body?"
50034Do you remember my address?"
50034Do you want corroborative evidence?
50034Do you want to investigate this story for yourself?
50034Got any new ones?"
50034He said to me,"Can you make lace?"
50034Her testimony follows:"Do you know Ella Gingles?"
50034Here are a few samples of questions asked veniremen by Attorney O''Donnell of the defense:"Are you married?"
50034His examination, conducted by Mr. Short, follows:"Do you remember seeing Miss Barrett and Ella Gingles on January 5, 1909?"
50034Linderman?"
50034Now suppose I wanted to be good, would mothers you know want their nice, innocent daughters associating with me?
50034O''Donnell?"

50034Schwartz her real name?
50034See them pictures?"
50034She described the marking on the linen, and then was asked:"If Mr. Thornton said you took linen from his house, he is wrong?"
50034She then said:"Did you tell that interrupting beast?"
50034Should he go at once to her parents and tell them of the finding of their daughter, that she was alive?
50034Sure you got the name right?"
50034Surely you can--""Catch her?
50034The man said,"Is it about anything in particular?"
50034This affiant asked,"What is the matter with my head; what is the matter here, and what is wrong?"
50034Thornton?"
50034Thornton?"
50034Was Ella Gingles, the little blonde Irish lace- maker, on trial for stealing$ 50 worth of lace from Agnes Barrett?
50034What did she count in that vast host?
50034What''s this?
50034Where did you hear that word?"
50034Who do you think you are talking to?"
50034Will you be willing to take this case?
41873Allowing the pity, what is the next thing to be done? 41873 And to the fifth question,''How many kept mistresses are there in the city?''
41873And to the first question, namely,''How many houses of prostitution are there in the city?'' 41873 And to the fourth inquiry,''How many private prostitutes are there in the city?''
41873And to the second inquiry,''How many houses of assignation are there in the city?'' 41873 And to the third inquiry,''How many public prostitutes are there in the city?''
41873Are they living or dead? 41873 Are you single, married, or widowed?
41873But is there no hope in the societies of moral reform? 41873 But it may be asked, If government has the power to relieve society of the vice of drunkenness, why despair of its power regarding prostitution?
41873Can you form an opinion as to how many women in your district, who are not impelled by necessity, prostitute themselves to gratify their passions?
41873Can you read and write? 41873 Did you assist either your mother or your father in their business?
41873Did you receive any assistance, and, if so, from whom, and to what amount, to enable you to emigrate to the United States? 41873 Did your father drink intoxicating liquors?
41873Did your mother drink intoxicating liquors? 41873 Do you drink intoxicating liquors?
41873Do you profess the same religion now? 41873 For what length of time have you been a prostitute?
41873Have you had any children? 41873 Have you had any disease incident to prostitution?
41873How is this happy result accomplished? 41873 How long have you resided in New York City?
41873How long have you resided in the State of New York? 41873 How long have you resided in the United States?
41873How long is it since you abandoned your trade as a means of living? 41873 How long since you observed any of its requirements?"
41873How many? 41873 How old will you be next birth- day?
41873If born abroad, in what country? 41873 If living, are they with you now, or where are they?
41873If married, is your husband living with you, or what caused the separation? 41873 If not, what other means have you?
41873If widowed, how long has your husband been dead? 41873 If your mother had any business independent of your father, what was it?
41873Is prostitution your only means of support? 41873 Is society to draw up a code of regulations as to what is proper for us to do, and what not?"
41873Is your father living? 41873 Is your mother living?
41873Then why not punish him?
41873To what extent, in your opinion, is prostitution carried on in the tenant houses in your district?
41873To whom will you complain?
41873Well,said she, coolly,"what does that prove?"
41873Were you born in America? 41873 Were you trained to any religion?
41873Were your parentsProtestants,""Catholics,"or"non- professors?"
41873What business did your father follow? 41873 What do you intend to do?"
41873What induced you to emigrate to the United States? 41873 What trade or calling did you follow before you became a prostitute?
41873What was the cause of your becoming a prostitute? 41873 What were your average weekly earnings at your trade?
41873What, then, is the proper province of legislation in this important matter? 41873 ''But when?'' 41873 ''Do n''t you know that I am the chief''s wife?'' 41873 ''Do not you know her? 41873 ''What do you mean?'' 41873 ''What do you want here?'' 41873 ''When we return?'' 41873 **** Brothels are not an invention of necessity, but are simply an offshoot of immoral luxury.(?) 41873 -- Boys-- GirlsWere these children born in wedlock?
41873A question will arise:"Who are the women that keep these houses?"
41873Again:"State your opinion as to how many kept mistresses there are in your district?"
41873Am I to understand that you never intend to marry me?''
41873Among the children under your care, to what extent does inherited syphilis exist?
41873And amid all this array of luxurious homes, of splendid dresses, of comparative affluence, the question arises, Are they happy?
41873And how?
41873And then something would whisper to her,"Why do you endure it?"
41873And what is the argument brought forward to oppose it?
41873Another class of immigrants are women, many of whom are sent here by charitable(?)
41873Are evil influences rife only in the factory?
41873Are not the children of parents thus affected unhealthy, scrofulous, subject to diseases of the eye, joints, etc.?
41873Are not the children of parents thus affected unhealthy?
41873Are they not oftentimes acquired at the risk of outraged delicacy or undermined moral principles?
41873Are, or are not, the number of such inmates steadily on the increase?
41873Assume that these children were not in the factory, where would they be, and what could they do?
41873But how account for the participation of the female in the crime?
41873But is not this scorn powerless against the array of favoring motives?
41873But some moralist will ask,"How would you have us treat such women?"
41873But why are they still retained on the statute books?
41873But will not a more enlightened policy do much toward diminishing it?
41873But will not this be deferring to vice because it is dressed in silks or satins?
41873By comparing the table upon this point with the one framed from the replies to the question,"For what length of time have you been a prostitute?"
41873Can any human frame withstand these incessant attacks for a lengthened period?
41873Can it seize on and destroy the inborn passion which fills and supports houses of prostitution?
41873Can we consistently blame her if she becomes callous, when every legal provision directly tends to indurate her sensibilities?
41873Can we now consistently refuse to apply the rule to all who need our kindly care?
41873Canst thou believe thy living is a life?
41873Diseased women were confined in the place; should they not be treated there?
41873Does no responsibility rest upon the public, and on our law- makers, for negligence in this matter?
41873Et vos, maquerellæ, quid dicitis?"
41873Has not the finger of this scorn too long forbid the search for truth?
41873Has not the hour arrived when truth will speak trumpet- tongued, and when her voice must be heard?
41873He replied phlegmatically,"Would you object to live in a house or sail in a ship because others had just preceded you in the one or the other?"
41873He says,"What are the earnings of our laundresses, our seamstresses, our milliners?
41873Her name, age, birth- place, trade, and residence?
41873How can the evil be prevented?
41873How does this number of ten thousand regular prostitutes bear on the population?

41873In consideration of their important relations to society, it may be well to inquire, What are the duties of parents, husbands, and relatives?
41873In many cases he wields a power the determinations of which amount to this:"Shall I have any food to- day, or shall I starve?"
41873In reply it may be asked if the drunkard himself is ever cured of his vicious appetite by penalties?
41873In the world and its ordinary code of social morality, suited to social conscience?
41873Is it any wonder that girls are driven to intoxication and disgrace by this conduct?
41873Is it more reprehensible than many customs nearer home?
41873Is it not an opprobrium upon our national character to allow them to exist, if they are never to be enforced?
41873Is it not time, then, to inquire whether we have not attempted too much; whether, if we attempt less, we shall not accomplish more?
41873Is it now too late to enlist your sympathies in the undertaking?
41873Is money more valuable than the character and life of woman?
41873Is not its influence lost when its real character is known?
41873Is there no culpable indifference in this?
41873Is there no guilty indifference in this?
41873Is there not a far more striking inconsistency in supinely allowing the same vice to exist and increase, without hinderance or examination?
41873It may be asked, What peculiar dangers attend the life of a prostitute in this city?
41873Looking at the amount received by female operatives, will any one feel surprised that they should abandon the incessant and poorly paid employment?
41873Married"357,"73"Widows"233,"79"In continuation of this subject is the_ Question._ IF YOU HAVE HAD CHILDREN, HOW MANY?
41873May we not be able to limit and control what we have not the power to prevent?
41873Need any farther argument be adduced to show the palpable absurdity of the system?
41873Now the question will arise, Has the world''s indifference produced these evils?
41873On what hypothesis can these proportions be explained?

41873She started up, saying,''Who is here?''
41873That was one victim rescued, but how many are lost?"
41873The case was certainly shocking: how was it to be met?
41873The excessive mortality among this class of children is developed in the following replies to the_ Question._ ARE THESE CHILDREN LIVING OR DEAD?
41873The first inquiry was,"How many houses of assignation are there in your district?"
41873The first question, then, to be answered, is, Can prostitution be prevented?
41873The following table will conclude this section:_ Question._ IF WIDOWED, HOW LONG HAS YOUR HUSBAND BEEN DEAD?
41873The most useful portion of the subject will be found, it is imagined, in replies to the question,"What was the cause of your becoming a prostitute?"
41873The next question was,"What, to the best of your belief, are the average number of visitors to such houses every twenty- four hours?"
41873The preceding facts will supply materials for reflection, in conjunction with the question,"On what hypothesis can these proportions be explained?"
41873Then the question arises, In what form shall the exposure be made?
41873They follow this advice, and in nine cases out of ten the magistrate''s only remark is,"Do you want me to send you to the Hospital?"
41873This was followed by the query,"Are all the females who visit these houses of assignation known public prostitutes?
41873Thus far manufacturers have been blamed for the depression of wages, but is not the consumer equally open to censure?
41873To the question,"What becomes of the prostitutes?"
41873To what will not such misery as this compel suffering human nature?
41873Turning fiercely to the women who sat before him, he apostrophized them:"Dicatis, vos, mulieres, posuistis, posuistis filias ad peccandum?
41873Under what form does constitutional syphilis present itself, and what diseases are attributable to its taint?
41873We succeeded in capturing( stealing?)

41873What is your population?
41873What language can be used adequately to denounce such a cold- blooded piece of treachery on the part of a wretch claiming to be human?
41873What means, in your opinion, could be adopted to eradicate or lessen the disease in the city?
41873What percentage of the total number of patients admitted to Bellevue Hospital suffer directly or indirectly from syphilis?
41873What, then, must be the condition of the towns, and, in particular, of the capital?
41873Where shall we find this light?
41873Where was she to expect aid and comfort but from the authors of her being, and how was such expectation realized?
41873Where, then, is our consistency?
41873Whether any one has a right to claim her?
41873Whether her father and mother are living, and what their calling was or is?
41873Whether she has ever been a prostitute before, and for what period of time?
41873Whether she has ever been arrested, and if yes, how often, and for what offenses?
41873Whether she has had children, and where they are?
41873Whether she has received any education?
41873Whether she has, or has had, venereal disease?
41873Whether she is a widow, wife, or spinster?
41873Whether she lives with them, and if not, when and how she left them?
41873Who, then, is responsible for her after- career but those who have the power to preserve her from farther guilt and shame?
41873Why add to the existing sense of shame another infamy when she unfortunately contracts disease?
41873Why should not females have this branch of employment at their command?
41873Why?
41873Will it stand the test of comparison with any one of them, much less of all?
41873Will not American good sense and American morality check this base imitation of a foreign custom?
41873With such disclosures as these, can any one be surprised at the continued spread of prostitution?
41873With such torments, physical and mental, can long life be expected as their lot?
41873Would she know where to get something to eat?

9390But, my boy,I''ve replied,"how are you going to account for your long absence and explain where you have been?"

9390My dear child,I said,"will you give me your San Francisco address, your mother''s name and initials?

9390Where am I to sleep, Mother dear?
9390Where is mother? 9390 Where were your husband and your son all this time?"
9390Where, Miss Blank?
9390Where? 9390 Who are you, my man, and where have we met?"
9390Who are you?
9390Who is she?
9390Who told you?
9390Who was Rita?
9390Who were these sisters?
9390Whoever heard of any man worth the having, seeking for a wife and the future mother of his children in a ballroom? 9390 Why are you veiled, B----?"
9390Why did n''t you appeal to the authorities, girls?
9390Why did you not immediately expose him to the firm?
9390Why do you say,''God willing''? 9390 Why not, dear?
9390Why, Mother, do n''t you remember?
9390Why, what kind of unnatural mother could she have been?
9390Why? 9390 Will I?
9390Will one of our congregation now call for a song?
9390Will you honor me by dining with me this evening, half an hour hence?
9390Wish some one would take a like interest in me,"Come back and see us once in a while,or,"Wo n''t you write me?
9390Would you be willing to lay down your life for little Rita, for the sake of her soul?
9390Would you care to hear her?
9390Would you still go if you could? 9390 You do n''t know any one here, do you, Mother?"
9390You were? 9390 You''ll tell me, wo n''t you?
9390''Can thine heart endure, or can thine hands be strong, in the days that I shall deal with thee?''
9390''Can you be ready to leave right away?''
9390''Henry, what are you doing?
9390''Hold on,''he said, as we were about to leave and try some other agency;''would you be willing to leave town?
9390''How long, O Lord, how long?''
9390''Patient?''
9390''There is one thing more I must tell you,''I said to a young, attractive- looking boy,''What attracts you here?''
9390''What''s up?''
9390''tis wonderful what a good meal can do for you when you''re hungry, is n''t it?
9390( Reader, our Savior ate with publicans and sinners; are we, professed Christians, better than he?
9390***** Will you come with me to one of our county hospitals this afternoon?
9390*****"Well, when will you be at home?
93902:"Can you suggest a better name?"
939059:19)?
939084:11,"The Lord is a sun and shield; the Lord will give grace and glory: no good thing will be withhold from them that walk uprightly"?
9390A white- haired, elderly lady who had sat opposite to me on the return trip, now pleasantly remarked:"Cincinnati is well worth a visit, is it not?"
9390After a pause she said,"Mrs. Roberts, will you please do me a favor?"
9390After many trips for this purpose I at last saw a place which delighted my heart; but-- would the owner part with it?
9390After prayer I inquired,"Laura, dear, why must you be compelled to be on duty?
9390After rising from his knees, he said,"Lady, will you trust me with a quarter?
9390And I used to say to myself,''_ I wonder what she would do if she found out who Dollie was?_''She was a Christian.
9390And are these all?
9390And now what was I to do?
9390And the tears of( righteous?)
9390Any objection?''
9390As I looked at that little sum in my calloused hand, I said,''Dollie, it''s the first honest money you ever earned; does n''t it make you feel good?''
9390At five o''clock?
9390Because of this, how many souls are going to be lost?
9390Before the girl had time to think or answer, he was right on hand, saying,"May I have the pleasure of the next waltz?
9390But are you not too busy?"
9390But some( are you among them?)
9390But what had come over me?
9390But why does she stand stock still?
9390Ca n''t part with them?
9390Callie, what are they?"
9390Callie----?
9390Can I ever forget that first prayer- meeting of the new year, 1907?
9390Can you accompany me?"
9390Can you not return to my home with me today?
9390Can you spare time to see her today?"
9390Could it possibly have been any worse in other places than in this one?
9390D''you hear?"
9390Dear Mrs. Roberts, can you bring before your mind''s eye this picture?
9390Did I regret the past toil, privations, and disappointments?
9390Did I say alone?
9390Did I say lonely?
9390Did I tell her?
9390Did ever he fail his own in the hour of need?
9390Did he succeed?
9390Did n''t you...?''
9390Did this experience affect my future career?
9390Did we always succeed?
9390Did you ever hear her sing?"...
9390Did you know the''dope''fiends lose their appetites for everything but the drug?
9390Do n''t I look different?
9390Do n''t I look happy?"
9390Do n''t you understand, Lucy?
9390Do we mean it?
9390Do you hear that loud weeping in the parlor?"
9390Do you know a girl shot herself just now in Miss Blank''s house?
9390Do you know him?"
9390Do you remember me?"
9390Do you think you could get any one to hire me?"
9390Do you?
9390Does the bird with the broken pinion ever soar as high again?
9390Does this cause the smoking, drinking, swearing, card- playing, Godless parents to halt and reflect?
9390Does this fill the mother of cherished, idolized little ones with remorse of conscience?
9390For a moment she looked alarmed, but did she heed?
9390From whom did this come?
9390Hatred?
9390Have the rest of the band arrived yet?
9390Have you heard the news?
9390Her next question was,"Pardon me, but have you any dinner engagement?
9390Here''s my quarter, whose next?"
9390His greeting was:"Well, well, Sister Kauffman, how do you do, and how are all your family?
9390How are you?"...
9390How can he be so courageous?
9390How could I?
9390How could I?"
9390How dare you impose yourself on me?''
9390How did they accept, you ask?
9390How do you account for that?
9390How do you procure them?"
9390How far had this earthquake extended?
9390How many trophies for the Savior''s crown would have been hers?
9390How was it faring with them?
9390How''s all the rest of them?"
9390I can not go to her; will you?"
9390I do n''t know what to make of it, do you?"
9390I hope you are n''t offended at what I did""Brother Louis, do n''t you realize that God used you to answer my prayer?"
9390I must obey; but how?
9390I reached S----- at 7:30 P.M. On our way to the Hotel Reba whispered,"Mother Roberts, will you occupy my room with me tonight?
9390I whispered:"Are you asleep, Lucy?"
9390I wished I could die then and there, but what was the use?
9390I wonder how many of us realize this?
9390I''ve made a resolution, but with this proviso: if I never touch another card, will you promise me never to play again?"
9390I''ve no use for stingy folk, have you?
9390If not, pray tell me what will?
9390In addition to that, where would she go if she did not like her first glimpse of the dance- hall, an ignorant, friendless girl in a strange town?
9390Is it degrading, demoralizing?
9390Is n''t he to be pitied?
9390Is that all?
9390Is that stranger the only procurer?
9390Is that you, Cora?''
9390It hurts?
9390It was a particular favorite with our family in the rescue home, some girl often remarking,"Does n''t it just seem to fit my case, Mother Roberts?"
9390It was not at all strange( now was it?)
9390Like David of old, I inquired of the Lord as to whether to continue with them or start anew?
9390Luke 17:1, 2 Have you, my reader, helped"grease the hill"that"one of these little ones"was sliding down, so that she soon reached the bottom?
9390Mamie, I wonder if you could n''t come, too?
9390May I inquire from whence you come?"
9390May I pray for you?"
9390Miss Blank?"
9390Miss Loraine?
9390Mother Roberts, how can I think God is good?
9390My reply was a question:"Could you not have kept a respectable lodging- house, my dear Miss Loraine?"
9390Now, my dear friend, do you not think that encouraging?
9390Old Adam dies very hard sometimes, does n''t he?
9390Oliver Wendell Holmes when asked,"When should a child''s education begin?"
9390One ca n''t expect much of a place for one dollar and fifty cents a week, can they?''
9390One day whilst I was visiting another, the landlady asked:"Have you ever called on Miss Loraine?"
9390One said to the other,"Were n''t you immensely interested in those dreadful word- pictures from real life?"
9390Plunge it anew into the precious blood of Jesus, Thus anew-- the work''s begun.... You''re wining?
9390Presently I succeeded, and soon she was asking:"''Is this Harry?''
9390Presently she continued,"Are you going to remain for some time here?
9390Presently, following some rapid questions and answers, she said,"How would you like to surprise your former companions, Callie?"
9390Putting her hand over the mouthpiece and turning to me, she asked:"Can you call at five this evening?"
9390Quickly I replied:"If that landlady does not know your voice,''phone, asking if she has any new girls at present?
9390Reader, what answer would you, had you been in my place, have made?
9390Roberts?"
9390Say, Mother Roberts, could n''t you make some excuse to get into her cell?
9390Say, Mother Roberts, when you go to San Francisco again, will you let me go with you?
9390Say, who was that singing out in the big dormitory a while ago?"
9390Shall I discredit the statements of the hunter because I saw no tigers?
9390She addressed the old man thus:"How d''you do, sir?
9390She hired a hack at the depot; was n''t she considerate?
9390She managed to inquire:"Who''s this, Anna?
9390She shrieked it:"Tell me, madam, was-- it-- all-- right-- with-- my-- baby-- girl?"...
9390Sister and I looked around for a minute, and then both of us said to the woman,''What kind of a place is this?''
9390So she raised a lady(?).
9390Soon I heard her voice:"What is it, please; what do you wish?"
9390Stepping over to her, I softly said,"Do n''t be frightened, dear, but is your name Elsie?"
9390Tell me why that sign if the dance is strictly respectable?
9390That first evening alone on the rostrum-- shall I ever forget it?
9390The Messengers( the Doves) Her Voice Still Nearer Was It You?
9390The cause?
9390The clerk asked,''What address?''
9390The gentleman(?)
9390The undertaking looked stupendous; nevertheless, what was to hinder if this were the plan of God?
9390Then where will you spend eternity?"
9390These same kids went to the same one I did, and do you think I could shake''em?
9390This being corroborated by a number sitting or standing around, she next said:"Did you come to investigate last night''s murder?"
9390This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord"?
9390This time a man''s voice inquired,"Who''s there?"
9390To be sure, that is expensive, but...""What is he driving at?"
9390Too much to pay?
9390Toward the close of the song, Can a boy forget his mother''s prayer, When he has wandered God knows where?
9390Under such circumstances, what inducement have they who, if encouraged, would do better?
9390Upon stooping to pick it up, she discovered that she was forestalled by a well- dressed gentleman(?
9390Was it you?
9390Was it you?
9390Was it you?]
9390Was that all?
9390Was the mission thereafter a failure?
9390Was the rescue work that I so dearly loved, at a standstill?
9390What better assurance than in verses 10, 11, and 12?
9390What can I do?"
9390What could I do but make the best of it?
9390What did a little fifteen- year- old fool like me know, with no mother to teach her, and no woman to take a real interest?
9390What did she mean?
9390What did this mean?
9390What did this mean?
9390What did you do?
9390What disposition of remains?"
9390What do you want him for?''
9390What if I should get nabbed?''
9390What think you, dear reader, would have been the outcome?
9390What was I now going to do?
9390What was I to do?
9390What was I to do?
9390What was she doing in this strange room?
9390What will these people think-- that I am an ex- jail bird?"
9390What would my former society friends say or think should any chance to meet me with them?"
9390What would you suggest?"
9390What''s your name, lady?"
9390When are you coming down again?
9390When did you get out?
9390When we returned to Mrs. Kincaid''s quarters, she inquired if I should like to see a photo of Callie as she formerly looked?
9390When you persuaded me to come to this place, did n''t you tell me I need give only my first name?"
9390Where do you live?
9390Where have you been?"
9390Where will it all eventually end?
9390Where, where were the others going?
9390Wherefore?
9390Who are you?"
9390Who could have sent it?
9390Who does not love a baby?
9390Who does not love that beautiful, most pathetic song entitled"The Ninety and Nine"?
9390Who does not pity this worse than motherless child?
9390Who was responsible for this?
9390Who will be the first to witness for Jesus this morning?"
9390Who''ve you brought with you?"
9390Why are they here?"
9390Why did I not have her arrested?
9390Why did n''t some one warn me?
9390Why did n''t you finish her while you were about it?"
9390Why do you wish to know?"
9390Why have I told you this?
9390Why inhale such long, deep breaths?
9390Why should I believe his word?
9390Why?
9390Why?
9390Wilt go a little further on this road?...
9390With nothing less-- will you be satisfied?
9390Wo n''t you take him for your Savior right now?"
9390Would it be asking too much of you to inquire just where those six acres are located?"
9390Would my husband''s visitor never go?
9390Would n''t she come?"
9390Would you let me sleep with you?"
9390Would you think there was anything out of the common in any of these features?"
9390Yes?
9390You ask if this is an exceptional case?
9390You did n''t know?
9390You do not understand?
9390You know where the county hospital is, do n''t you?
9390You wish to know the names of all these wheels?
9390You wonder what you are going to do about it?
9390[ Illustration: POOR ELSIE]"It wo n''t hurt you if I tell you?"
9390[ Illustration: SHEET MUSIC WAS IT YOU?
9390[ Illustration: VIEW OF WARDEN''S HOUSE, ETC., REPRESA]"Is not his home here?"
9390[ Why?
9390_ But I never could do that, could you?_ I said good- by to my kind friend and started out for where, I did not know.
9390_ Child, did I hear you say you want my best?
9390_ He takes us at our word._ How many of us make excuses?
9390_ I am a gentleman with whom you need not for a moment hesitate to be seen;_ and now, may I have the pleasure of learning your name?
9390_ That sight was sickening._ And that refined- looking girl-- who was she?
9390and"Are you willing to purchase desirable property?"
9390but how many have literally helped to emulate the Great Shepherd''s example?
9390ca n''t they see that he is too weak, suffering too much, to be able to carry such a weight?
9390is that you, H----?
9390or are you helping and cheering them on the upward way until they reach the goal?
9390or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?"
9390reader, are you not, with me, daily demonstrating the fact, that_ only godly wisdom, coupled with love, can win_?
9390reader, do you realize what it means to"stand still"in the trying hours?
9390she asked,"when did you ever learn to play cards and pool?"
9390they have cried,"what did I ever do that my child should get into such trouble as this?"
9390to watch our Father''s Spirit working in the lives and natures of the outcast?
9390what had wrought such a change?
9390what have I done?
9390what must I do?"
9390what shall I do?
9390what was the fate of our dear ones there?
9390when will our lawmakers and our officers eliminate forever the accursed poisons that ruin men and women both physically and morally?
9390when will that awful octopus, that curse of the world be destroyed?
9390when will they ever profit by this only too true picture, being really enacted every day, every hour, by some mother''s wandering girl?
9390where had you seen her?"
9390where was it now?
9390where?
9390who is this that recognizes me in such a den?"
9390you exclaim,"do they permit women and girls to smoke?"
36220''Good- bye''?
36220''Why not? 36220 And bolted the door?"
36220And how can you see?
36220And must I look pleasant?
36220And where is this house?
36220Are n''t they ready?
36220Are n''t_ you_ going back to school?
36220Are the downstairs windows barred with iron, too?
36220Are you ill?
36220Are you the man who brought me to Lowndes Square an hour or so ago?
36220Are you thinking of writing to her?
36220Are_ you_ Mrs. Harborough? 36220 Aunt Josephine?"
36220Awful hole to be in, is n''t it?
36220Because,Betty said, and she looked at the young man again,"only because I saw so many of your-- of Mr. Whitby- Dawson''s photographs----""Really?"
36220But are n''t you going away to- morrow?
36220But if we do n''t,I said,"how are we going to live-- Bettina and I, without the pension?"
36220But my----( I suppressed"my aunt"with an inward twist of questioning anguish)"----shall I not be asked where I am going and why?"
36220But what sort is a skirt- dance?
36220But, Ranny,I said,"how can you do all this?
36220Ca n''t we sit down?
36220Could you hear something very unexpected, even horrible, and not cry out?
36220Danced badly?
36220Did Lady Helmstone say she and Hermione would walk back with Bettina?
36220Did n''t I tell you,she said to Ranny,"Duncombe is a place where if a man goes in, he does n''t come out?"
36220Did you ask?
36220Did you drive through the Park?
36220Do n''t know caviar?
36220Do n''t you skirt- dance?
36220Do people not leave London in August nowadays?
36220Do you mind?
36220Do you see yourself going to classes in London, cramming yourself with all this?
36220Do you think,I whispered to my man,"you could ask to have a window opened?"
36220Does n''t she want to?
36220Does she expect dinner to go to her, too?
36220Does she tell you what they talk about?
36220Drugged?
36220End? 36220 Equipment for what?"
36220Had Mademoiselle Bettina not taken it out?
36220Have n''t I made you understand? 36220 Have they put on the chain?"
36220Have you any idea where you are?
36220Have you ever fainted?
36220Heard_ them_?
36220How can I say? 36220 How can you be sure?
36220How did you know of the existence of these people?
36220How do we know?
36220How do you know they have bolted it?
36220How long,she demanded,"are you going to stay?"
36220How was it you came to know that?
36220How will it end?
36220How_ can_ I? 36220 I said he was jealous of Captain Boyne, or why should he call him''that fellow''?
36220I suppose, then, you heard me try the door?
36220I wo n''t go early walks for the next-- how many days am I to be cooped up when the morning is at its best?
36220If she knew what you had told me, what would she do?
36220If the policeman knew,she said--"if he so much as suspected, why did he not stop the motor?"
36220If we never go anywhere-- never see anyone, what is the use in being equipped?
36220If, after all, they were to prevent me-- what, what then?
36220In this weather?
36220Is Betty going?
36220Is he married?
36220Is n''t it so? 36220 Is that where Betty is?"
36220It is different, you mean, in Crutchley Street?
36220Look here,he said,"why should n''t we go and meet Annan?--warn him-- eh?"
36220Luggage, miss?
36220Married?
36220Matter? 36220 Me?"
36220No? 36220 Not?
36220Now?
36220Oh, Art is it?
36220Oh, and what are you now?
36220Oh, w- will you?
36220Oh, you prefer crême de menthe, do you?
36220One of the Helmstones?
36220Other claims?
36220Ought I?
36220Put what?
36220She tink to go on ze stage?
36220Show me the way, will you? 36220 Suppose by some miracle you were to pass the entrance exams.--have you any idea how long they keep you grinding away afterwards?"
36220The fall?
36220To- night-- to- night; what can we do to- night?
36220Under? 36220 Wait"?
36220We are not to be together?
36220Well, is n''t that the intention of most people who put up a cottage in the country?
36220Well, oblige the company by telling us what you look for in a story?
36220Well, she has other preoccupations, has n''t she?
36220Well, what of that?
36220What am I doing?
36220What are the ends of life?
36220What are you doing?
36220What are you planting there?
36220What call?
36220What did she say?
36220What do you do then?
36220What do you really want them for?
36220What do you want a bungalow_ for_, then?
36220What ees it?
36220What in the world do you think that means?
36220What is he going to tell me?
36220What is it?
36220What is it?
36220What is the matter?
36220What makes you think I''m going to settle down?
36220What on earth do you mean?
36220What people do they discuss?
36220What put such an idea into your head?
36220What put this into your head?
36220What should I hear?
36220What time is it in?
36220What time is it?
36220What was that?
36220What way-- way to what?
36220What will you have?
36220What would n''t she understand?
36220What''s the use?
36220What_ are_ you doing? 36220 When did they do that?"
36220When is he here?
36220Where are you going?
36220Where do you find wild thyme?
36220Where does your aunt live?
36220Who are you?
36220Who is to be there?
36220Who was that gentleman?
36220Who,( with her air of listening to sounds beyond my ken)"who can all those people be?"
36220Who?
36220Why did n''t he arrest the woman?
36220Why did n''t you think of it? 36220 Why must you have wild thyme there?"
36220Why not?
36220Why should I?
36220Why should they be''in hand''?
36220Why was that?
36220Why?
36220Why?

36220Why?

36220Will you drive very fast?

36220Yes, looks quite Bond Street, does n''t it?
36220Yes, yes; for you, Mademoiselle, ze note sall be sérénité... hein? 36220 Yet someone came to the unbolted door----?"
36220You are ze careful one, hein?
36220You do n''t believe I would lie to you?
36220You do n''t mean there are many?
36220You do n''t mean to say you were in there all the time?
36220You do n''t think she is going to die?
36220You do n''t,I whispered,"you do n''t mean... quite soon?"
36220You feel sure I could n''t?
36220You haf a photografie-- hein?
36220You have never been to London since you were a child-- and you come all this way just for a few hours?
36220You like caviar?
36220You mean Betty is too young?
36220You mean Hermione? 36220 You mean curing?"
36220You surely did have other claims?
36220You think I would n''t?
36220You think, then, even if Aunt Josephine helped----"Who is Aunt Josephine?
36220You think,Mrs. Harborough said,"that the woman was suspicious?"
36220You will bring''the List''and come with us at once?
36220_ Me?_she said.
36220_ This house?_He nodded.
36220_ Where are you going to...?_Betty sang.
36220_Who wrote that?"
36220***** My mother never woke till nearly nine, and of course the first thing she asked was,"Where is Betty?"
36220----asking me like that,_ at a ball_, if I liked Captain Boyne best-- a man I''d never seen before-- don''t you call it very rude?"
36220--Betty tossed her head, laughing softly--''and I''m not your wife----''"I asked her if she had said it like that?
36220A marble terrace by moonlight.... No?
36220After I shut the door, I opened it again, and called out:"Oh, what was it you were going to tell me?"
36220After a moment:"Was that here?"
36220After a second:"How did she get hold of you?"
36220And Betty, suspicious, insistent:"Not_ never_?"
36220And I asked questions about that time-- questions that made him stare:"How did you guess?
36220And I had done her hair like that----"_ What is your fortune, my pretty maid?_"The man had come out and softly shut the door.
36220And besides----""Besides?"
36220And can you valk in it?
36220And had I seen the sun go down?
36220And he began badly:"''You''ve told Boyne he ca n''t have this waltz?''"
36220And he repeated it:"''Single harness,''eh?"
36220And her time---- Was that nearly over too?
36220And now again I asked:"Why had it to be you?"
36220And should we always have the pension?
36220And the third?
36220And then, what do you think I said?"
36220And this was a question of a cruise of-- how many weeks?
36220And very sharp on that:"Why not?"
36220And were our boxes labelled?
36220And what had the Government done even for Science?
36220And what was she like-- this lady?
36220And when?
36220And why, I asked Bettina, did she feel so?
36220And why_ should_ we?
36220And would I like to see him?
36220And would we stay for the Coronation?
36220And yet...."Why should you want to do that?"
36220And, to divert her thoughts, I asked:"Who takes care of her-- the little daughter-- while you are away?"
36220And, with that start I had learned from my mother-- where was Betty?
36220Are these, then, deliberate criminals?
36220As still as if I were taking your picture?"
36220Bettina said at last that she hated most dreadfully to bother Madame Aurore, but where was that old photograph?
36220Bettina said soothingly:"I suppose you left her with some good friend?"
36220Bettina went about the house, singing:"''Where are you going to, my pretty maid?''
36220Betty asked why would he?
36220Betty-- Betty, what am I to do?
36220Betty-- Betty-- who will help us?
36220Brighton?
36220But I managed to bring out the words:"Is he going, do you think?"
36220But did she not think that for some great and important end, my father would have been the first to say, let the jewels be sold?
36220But had I or anybody else ever heard of a man who was a doctor himself wanting his sister, or his daughter to study medicine?
36220But he said:"When she begins to play, or to sing, you are to get up quite quietly--_can_ you?"
36220But what had become of the ideal of confidence?
36220But when they''re young, what_ does_ it matter?"
36220But where_ was_ our"slight and only clue"?
36220But who was I to reach the Queen?
36220But who was the man with her?
36220But who was worthy to make an evening- frock fit for London?
36220But why?
36220But, going downstairs, I asked him how_ was_ I to put it to my mother?
36220CHAPTER XIV WHERE IS BETTINA?
36220CHAPTER XXIX WHERE?
36220Ca n''t you see what a wild idea it is?"
36220Could I remember what he was like?
36220Could I trust even Eric to help?
36220Could n''t I trust him to know?
36220Could she lift ze arm-- hein?"
36220Could she, when she was in her teens, have felt the least as I did?
36220Could they mean, then, to go home...?
36220Did n''t I say,"Hermione laughed,"no man ever knows when to come away from this place?"
36220Did not Betty know, above all, did not I know, the feeling of all the proper sort of mothers about young girls being away from home at night?
36220Did the stranger object to jumping ditches and climbing stiles?
36220Eh-- what?"
36220Eh----?"
36220Even if the chauffeurs, all three, were decent enough ordinarily, what if just to- night they had been drinking?
36220For he went on quickly to say:"Suppose I sit with your mother for that hour, while you go out and get some exercise?"
36220For whom was that"but"?
36220Had I no regard for my little sister, sitting there in the current of raw air?
36220Had he, then, come so early for"nothing in particular"?
36220Had it come to this house to serve as model?
36220Had she not told me herself that my first duty was to take care of Betty?
36220Had the strange woman kissed Bettina?
36220Had this, as the little dressmaker hinted, something of sheer sickness in it-- an invalid''s caprice?
36220Has he you?"
36220Have n''t you... other claims?"
36220Have you ever noticed that?
36220He had said to her after a certain occurrence----"What occurrence?"
36220He hesitated and then:"How good are your nerves?"
36220He lifted his umbrella, and seemed to make a sign:"May I come in?"
36220He looked at me:"And you?"
36220He studied at the University there part of one year----""Studied duelling?"
36220Hein?
36220His tone asked: and what business was it of mine?
36220How do they come on?"
36220How had she been brought to have someone tending me who did not call himself a Healer, yet who I felt might well have cured any malady but mine?
36220How long was it since I had been away from Bettina?
36220How much had I given away?
36220How old must she be before she could wear the pendant?
36220I asked him to tell us about them: were the sisters like him?
36220I could only suggest that if she was afraid of anything of the kind, why should she not speak to Betty?
36220I knew all this was wild and foolish... then why did these imaginings make me feel I could not bear the suspense another moment?
36220I looked back again:"Is that the only reason?"
36220I might be sure they would do all they could to discover the house----"When?
36220I remembered I had gone back into that last Darkness saying, as I had said ten thousand times before:"Why had this come to Betty?"
36220I said I was sure they would not, though an hour before I would have asked, Why not?
36220I was going to say"Why not?"
36220I went secretly, a roundabout way through the shrubberies, to bring Betty in, reluctant and looking back at Dora:"Come again to- morrow?"
36220I, myself?
36220Is n''t it this window?"
36220It was better, she answered, to be less comfortable and safe, than to be more comfortable and----"And what?"
36220Let us see, did it lend itself?
36220Madame Aurore asked each day, How was madame?
36220My mother was the first to speak:"They are haphazard people, I sometimes think.... You do n''t suppose they would send her back with a groom...?"
36220Neither haste nor perturbation in the voice that asked me:"What has happened?"
36220No other friend?
36220Now, can you sit quite still for a few minutes?
36220Of course, my mother asked why such unbrotherly behaviour?
36220Often they asked, Would she come to a garden- party?
36220Oh, very distingué, hein?"
36220Oh, why are you Queen of England, if you ca n''t help Betty?"
36220Only, would n''t she be up to the eyes in work?
36220Or is it worse?..."
36220Or shall I ask someone else?"
36220Ranny walked behind, absolutely silent, till he burst out:"May I smoke?"
36220She went one day("Well, does n''t the field belong to us?")
36220Should I run along the street ringing at all the bells?
36220Should we have to sell Duncombe House?
36220So I said:''If the Boynes are n''t nice, why are they here?''
36220Taxi- drivers were as much alike to country eyes as the cabs they drove---- But why ask me?
36220The admission was made in an accent so coldly hopeless that Bettina, round- eyed, said:"Oh, dear, is n''t she a nice friend?"
36220The first time Madame Aurore heard Bettina she arrested the rapid stab of her basting needle:"Who ees dat?"
36220The inspector said, under certain circumstances, a warrant could be obtained to search the house.... And was the warrant ready?
36220The question still was, Who, this side of London, could be trusted to make our frocks?
36220Then of the elaborate grey head turning towards an old man, as if to ask: Well, what do you think of my nieces?
36220Then that admirable Aunt wrote back:"Would next month do?"
36220Then with that impatience of his, if you were doing other things while he was there:"How much more of that stuff are you going to put in?"
36220Then, with unusual_ brusquerie_ where my mother was concerned, he added:"When_ I_ come to see people, what I say is,''How do you do?''"
36220There must always be that question: what is going to become of me?
36220This had been her one chance-- who else was likely to take her?
36220To whom?
36220To- morrow?
36220Two taxi- cabs in the rank, and ours at the curb?
36220Under what?"
36220Underneath it what was happening?
36220Was Hermione expecting to see the Boynes soon again?"
36220Was eccentricity the sort of thing that grew worse as people grew older?
36220Was he not a sort of a doctor?
36220Was it drugged coffee that made me feel so lamed?
36220Was it not better to write to him, rather than face another afternoon like yesterday?
36220Was n''t it worse, I demanded, groping among the new perceptions dawning-- wasn''t it worse for Bettina to tease a dumb animal?
36220Was she afraid of making these friends of the beautiful lady anxious about her?
36220Was that a blackcap singing?
36220Was there, then, some life- principle in such pain?
36220Was this death?...
36220Watching sideways-- watching... for what?
36220Well, why not?
36220What did I know?"
36220What did he know about"her kind"?
36220What did he say?"
36220What did he say?"
36220What did it all mean?
36220What did they mean?
36220What do you do with all those poor darling guinea- pigs?"
36220What had I done?
36220What had I noticed as we drove away from the station?
36220What had Mr. Annan said the day before?
36220What had been done by all the members of the Lords and Commons put together comparable to the achievements of-- for instance, Sanitary Science?
36220What had he to be grateful for?
36220What had he turned away for with that brisk air?
36220What had he_ done_--except to use his great position as a rostrum?
36220What had they done?
36220What hung?
36220What if he were not mad?
36220What made her look like that?
36220What magic light was this, then, that was shining on the world?
36220What put that in your head?"
36220What should be the matter?"
36220What time is it?"
36220What was I thinking of?
36220What was happening at home all this time?
36220What was it he had told me?
36220What was the good of this man who was n''t a general practitioner?
36220What was the white- capped figure looking at-- so steadily, so long?
36220What was to become of us?
36220What was wrong?
36220What were they like?
36220What, then, was our chief advantage?
36220What_ did_ he mean?
36220When was she going to be married?
36220When?"
36220Where did she live?
36220Where is she?"
36220Where should I go?
36220Where was Bettina, in her ignorance, straying?
36220Where was he going to keep them?
36220Where was my mother in her lonely struggle?
36220Where would she be when the foxgloves stood tall here among the bracken?
36220Which way had we driven from Victoria?
36220Who else?
36220Who had Power?
36220Who was there in all the world who really cared?
36220Who was this with the hair rolled high and the pear- shaped earrings?
36220Why had I not thought of that before?
36220Why had she looked after us?
36220Why have you put on your cloak?
36220Why should not I, too, scorn delight and live laborious days?
36220Why should_ I_ not rouse myself and nerve myself?
36220Why was he not spending every thought and every hour in trying to find Bettina?
36220Why was he troubling about me?
36220Why was it wrong to mention the doctor''s visit?
36220Why was she like this?
36220Why, above all, should I, who was so much older...?
36220Why?
36220Will you believe that?"
36220Will you just find out?"
36220Would he come again at three, so that we might talk alone?
36220Would she help with a children''s school- treat?
36220Would she play bridge?
36220Yes; and did I want to see him now?
36220You crossed Oxford Street?"
36220You do n''t know what chaklas are?
36220You do n''t mean such a thing has happened before?"
36220You were horribly frightened,_ were n''t_ you?"
36220_ My_ story?
36220_ Now_ do you understand?"
36220_ Why_ have n''t you told him?''"
36220how is it now?)
36220is n''t this the kind of foolishness I was hoping to be saved from?
36220what has happened to you?"
36220you here again?"
59441After I left him? 59441 Always?"
59441And are n''t you an anarchist now?
59441And before that-- you had a sweetheart? 59441 And did she ever mention me?"
59441And how do you know all this?
59441And how is it you are living with a thief?
59441And how long have you been coming here?
59441And is it wrong?
59441And last night--Monsalvat asked, after a brief pause,"why were you so unhappy?"
59441And then what?
59441And then?
59441And then?
59441And what about the doctor?
59441And where is she now? 59441 And you do n''t know where Nacha is?"
59441And you,he exclaimed,"why have n''t you some kind of work?"
59441Are n''t you ever coming back to my house?
59441Are n''t you putting it rather strongly, Torres? 59441 Are you two bent on rearranging the whole universe?"
59441Because such a marriage would be a lie....Was he dreaming?
59441But do n''t you see? 59441 But why do n''t you tell him about it-- Fernando, I mean?
59441But why not remember what is good in the past? 59441 But why so many reforms in the world?
59441But you are dissatisfied with the way you''re living?
59441But you know that he assaults people and robs them?
59441But your repentance...?
59441But, child, why? 59441 But, mother, do you think he will marry me?"
59441But,said Julieta,"what is the matter?"
59441Can there be many girls like that?
59441Did she speak of me? 59441 Did you live long in this fashion?"
59441Did you see that child in the hall?
59441Did you think you had made a hit with me? 59441 Do n''t you love Monsalvat, Nacha?
59441Do n''t you remember me, Doctor Monsalvat? 59441 Do n''t you understand?
59441Do you think that such magnanimous acts suit these times? 59441 Good?
59441Had n''t we better be going? 59441 Have you sent for the doctor?"
59441How did she receive Arnedo''s attentions?
59441How do you know? 59441 How is that possible?
59441How much did you pay this month?
59441How should I know?
59441How was she going to live on what was left?
59441I have come... Miss--(or would Madame, perhaps, be more appropriate?) 59441 I heard the story; but who knows if it''s true?
59441I saw you that night, you remember? 59441 I suppose so,"said Nacha, throwing him off,"but what about your''nigger''in Belgrano?
59441I think he must have loved me very much, do n''t you? 59441 Is this true?
59441Is what that woman says true?
59441Is what that woman says true?
59441It is n''t so bad, is it? 59441 Me?
59441Mine?
59441Nacha Regules?
59441Nacha, what does this mean? 59441 Nacha, why did you drive me away that afternoon?
59441Of what people?
59441Oh, really?
59441Oh, you want to know something about Nacha, sir?
59441Presentiments?
59441Remember?
59441Sad? 59441 Shall I call in the girls?"
59441Sick, eh?
59441So it''s true she was carrying on with you, is it? 59441 So you think we ruin girls, do you?
59441So you''re going for the police are you? 59441 Some time... you will... let me see you?"
59441They are better than cards then? 59441 Useless, Nacha?
59441Was it one of these girls who told you?
59441Well then, why do n''t you make up your mind to leave it?
59441Well, is n''t she?
59441Well, what news?
59441Well, what of it? 59441 Well, why do n''t they work?"
59441Well,he said at last,"I want to know what was the matter with you last night?"
59441What can I do, sir? 59441 What do you mean?"
59441What do you need? 59441 What does such nonsense matter to me?
59441What is it then? 59441 What is it, Nacha?
59441What is the matter? 59441 What is the trouble?"
59441What is there to do, my dear fellow? 59441 What''s her name?
59441What''s it all about?
59441What''s that?
59441What? 59441 What?
59441What? 59441 What?"
59441What?
59441When did-- it happen?
59441Where did Monsalvat live?
59441Where do I live?
59441Where do you live?
59441Who am I? 59441 Who are_ They_?"
59441Who is it? 59441 Who is it?"
59441Who told you that? 59441 Who was that fool?"
59441Why did n''t you carry out my orders?
59441Why did she keep her daughter in such surroundings?
59441Why do n''t you answer me? 59441 Why do n''t you get rid of her, old man?
59441Why do n''t you go on? 59441 Why do you come to this house?"
59441Why do you do it Nacha?
59441Why do you take things that way?
59441Why do you try so hard to forget?
59441Why do you want to know?
59441Why is it-- how does it happen that--?
59441Why leave me, Monsalvat? 59441 Why remember?
59441Why should anyone go to a cabaret to gloom and whimper like a simpleton? 59441 Why should you be startled?"
59441Why, Nacha?
59441Why, man, what''s the matter with you?
59441Why, my good friends, what''s all this, anyway? 59441 Why, you boys are n''t serious, are you?
59441Why... are you afraid... of me?
59441Wo n''t you take her something from me-- from us both?
59441Would you care for a little company?
59441You called her Nacha, did n''t you? 59441 You knew him?
59441You know very well that I do n''t receive calls from gentlemen.... Is he well dressed?
59441You think I will get better then?
59441You wish...?
59441''How much is this woman worth?
59441A slender girl who lived awhile with Pampa Arnedo?
59441Abruptly, without shaking hands with Torres, he went away, downcast and ill. Why hope for anything from anyone?
59441After a long silence she asked him gently:"Who are you?
59441After that silent leave- taking from her friend, how indeed could she help yearning to turn away from the life she was leading?
59441Am I getting old, do you think?
59441Am I mistaken about that, eh?
59441And Eugenia Monsalvat?
59441And all for what?
59441And it''s true, is n''t it?
59441And supposing he should meet her again?
59441And the men, those respectable gentlemen who were such good friends of Madame''s, how could they fail to utter a word of protest or of pity?
59441And the young ladies, the one on his left and the one on his right?
59441And then go and die right afterwards?
59441And then... why did she feel this strange attraction towards him?
59441And were n''t all those who looked on, and did nothing to prevent, accomplices?"
59441And what could she do to stop him?
59441And what law have the law- makers devised to abolish these evils?
59441And what other principle makes our lives consistent with our opinions and our ideals-- granted we have opinions and ideals?
59441And what''s that to you?"
59441And where are you going without a cent to your name, eh?
59441And where were those women now?
59441And where would such a love lead him?
59441And where?
59441And why give one''s whole soul to something that offered no visible reward?
59441And why had his agent never reported such conditions?
59441And why had she behaved so?
59441And yet could she accomplish that?
59441And yet, supposing it were all true?
59441And you say it was Nacha?
59441Annette let her come there?
59441Anything doing?"
59441Are n''t you going to get married?"
59441Are you afraid of something?
59441Are you angry with me?"
59441Are you ashamed afterwards?
59441Are you convinced?
59441Are you rehearsing for the movies?"
59441Are you satisfied?"
59441As Monsalvat started for the door of the tenement the janitor resumed:"Going to talk to them?
59441Back to your quixotic notions about righting all humanity''s wrongs, and redeeming people who have nothing to redeem about them?
59441Be his mistress then?
59441Besides, does not selfishness play a little part in our striving toward the greatest ends?
59441But Aquilina always replied:"And why?
59441But did she love him the other way-- with her senses?
59441But does n''t that make it all the more our duty, Nacha, to do what we can?
59441But even though it should not be so, granted they are virtually animals, whose fault is it?"
59441But had he not played the simple fool-- in public?
59441But how many ever succeed in changing the direction of their lives?
59441But how?
59441But my aunt says that when people do what they are forced to do, they are not really bad.... Can that be true?
59441But poor folks had always gotten along without air; and as for hygiene,--what was hygiene anyway but some new fad of the white- collared crowd?
59441But there was Nacha.... What though his search had been useless, and he had no news of her, nor any kind of assurance that she ever thought of him?
59441But these people-- why, sir, what can a fellow do with them?
59441But to whom, and how?
59441But what good was his description?
59441But what have we ever done to rehabilitate one of them?
59441But what was there to do?
59441But where?
59441But whither?
59441But why this question?"
59441But would it pass?
59441But you are to bring her to her mother''s the very first thing in the morning, understand?"
59441But, after all, what had he actually done these six months past?
59441But, did she want him to be?
59441CHAPTER V"Who are you?...
59441Can any one of us say that he has never, even by tacit complicity, helped to bring about the degradation of any woman?
59441Can you forgive me for all the harm I did you, too?
59441Could Monsalvat be ill?
59441Could Nacha be once more under Arnedo''s control?
59441Could he have fallen in love with her?
59441Could he have lost her?
59441Could n''t he guess how much she needed his protection?
59441Could she not be, if she tried?
59441Criminal, you call it?
59441Did Monsalvat know?
59441Did he want to take her from Arnedo, to have her for himself?
59441Did n''t I say she was putting on?"
59441Did n''t I tell you?"
59441Did n''t he make you become the girl you are?
59441Did n''t her parents know where she was?
59441Did n''t they care how long they took?
59441Did she forgive me before she died?"
59441Did she love him?
59441Distinguished, is n''t she?
59441Do n''t you all remember Eugenia?"
59441Do n''t you know I threw her out ten days ago?
59441Do n''t you remember Moreno, the attorney?
59441Do n''t you think it is only just and human to encourage her?
59441Do we ever extend the hand of Christian fellowship to the outcast?
59441Do we ever go into the places where they live with any purpose but a shameful one?
59441Do you believe they will?
59441Do you know the Basque woman''s house?
59441Do you think it impossible that I-- that any woman-- for love, and thinking all the time of him...?
59441Do you think it is only out of shame, or because of our families, that we hide our identities?
59441Do you think there''s any chance-- of my being what I ought to be?"
59441Do you think you can get away with that excuse?"
59441Do you think your father will really find her?"
59441Do you want to ruin the reputation of my house?"
59441Does a man take such risks except for love?
59441Does even the material world exist save as our senses make us aware of it?
59441Eh?"
59441Every once in a while her expression grew blank, and her eyes opened wide as though she were in a paroxysm?
59441Exploited for centuries, their grand- parents, their parents, they themselves, knew nothing else; how could they then sense his good intentions?
59441Follow my destiny....""Your destiny?
59441For who of all these prevented that sale?
59441From whom?"
59441Had any of them ever thought of living sincerely, of seeking any meaning in all they were doing?
59441Had he become an incorrigible cynic?
59441Had he brought ruin upon her?
59441Had he done anything to prevent her fall, in the first place, or to redeem her, now that she had fallen?
59441Had he perchance even discovered the road he really wanted to take?
59441Had he, too, not bought favors from women-- be it, indeed, with flattery and favors returned?
59441Had not even Nacha joined in the mockery as he left the room, proving incapable of loyalty even toward the man who had defended her?
59441Had she changed her name?
59441Had she not abandoned him at the very moment when he most needed her support?
59441Had they, too, by selling themselves, lost all right to the world''s respect, the right to be treated as human beings, to be pitied?
59441Have n''t we both a chance to be decent?
59441Have you got the pip?"
59441Have you had a detective trailing me?
59441Have you really forgotten what was on the tip of your tongue?
59441He opened the door and from the threshold shouted so that every one could hear him, but all the while keeping his appearance of humility:"What kind?
59441He stammered at last:"And what is being done to remedy all this?"
59441He wanted to marry me....""And why did n''t you let him, Nacha?"
59441His fault?
59441How could he have sat at this table a whole hour, forgetting all he had been through that afternoon?
59441How could he recognize her even if he met her?
59441How could one help being sorry for such an unhappy life?"
59441How could she have become so bitter, and sharp- tongued, when she had once been so cheerful?
59441How could she possibly fear being attracted by Arnedo, brutal and tyrannous as he was?
59441How could she, poor fallen woman that she was, destitute of every possession, rise to the world of a being such as he?
59441How could she, when every husband who came her way, no matter how exemplary by reputation, made love to her at the slightest provocation?
59441How could such a woman, disagreeable, coarse, bad- tempered as she appeared, have the patrons of the sort Torres asserted she had?
59441How do I look?
59441How else could elegant and distinguished ladies of your world know anything at all about human suffering?"
59441How endure the touch of Death''s hand on living eyes?
59441How face the prospect of endless night?
59441How far was he going?
59441How much longer could a self- respecting man hold out against the challenge of that brutality?
59441How old do you think I am?
59441How should I know, son?"
59441How, after several months of an honest and decent life, could it be so easy for her to go back to a vicious world?
59441I have a feeling that this particular girl is not of just the kind that....""Just the kind that what?"
59441I knew her mother... because once....""Keep to Nacha, wo n''t you?"
59441I tell you he''s a friend-- but what''s the matter with you?
59441I want to redeem the past-- I want to deserve forgiveness....""Who is there to forgive you, Nacha?"
59441I went so slowly, it seemed as though years must have passed-- and at the door I looked back.--Why was I leaving him?
59441I''ll go back to the old life; but feed you with the money I earn?
59441I''m only a poor man, so what does it matter?
59441If it were, why could n''t she be happy?
59441If not, what then?
59441If not, why did he think of her all the time even on such an occasion as this one?
59441If some one chanced to mention the beauty of the day, he answered-- but to himself--"What is that to me?"
59441If there are people who are hungry, why do n''t they work?
59441If there had been anything between them, was n''t it rather strange that ten days should pass without their seeing one another?
59441If they were satisfied, why force on them something they did not ask for?
59441If you do n''t take me, what''s to become of me?
59441In his solitude, with no friend on all the wide horizon of his life, why run away from Irene?...
59441In the complex motivation of the finest, noblest, most heroic gestures of men, how many small, unconfessable impulses always have their play?
59441Irene-- but why speak of past troubles?
59441Is it impossible?
59441Is it possible?
59441Is n''t it the truth?
59441Is n''t that so?"
59441It is not a dream?
59441It was a shame... but what could be done about it?
59441It''s strange, is n''t it?
59441Just so that you can marry a prostitute?"
59441Just to feel bad?"
59441Let me see-- are you well dressed?
59441Let''s go in here, shall we?"
59441Love or hate?
59441Loved him as a lover, and not as she had so persistently believed?
59441Marry him?
59441No, I''m not saying anything... but.... Can you deny having lived in a certain"house"on---- Street, eh?
59441Not a dream?"
59441Not getting old very fast, eh?"
59441Not here either?"
59441Not to do me harm?"
59441Oh, Fernando, can you forgive me?
59441Once she had even thought she saw him pass by the open door.... Where was he now?
59441Once, when Nacha did not eat what was on the plate before her, Cata asked:"Does n''t this fare suit you?
59441One must keep up one''s position, do n''t you think?
59441One of them, in whom drink was already at work, cried out:"What''s the matter with you?
59441Or consecrate himself to those other wretches of the underworld?
59441Or dragging out a wretched existence in the big city''s underworld?
59441Or fortune tellers?"
59441Or had he practised a miserable deception on her, making use of his eloquent words to get her away from Arnedo, for his own advantage?
59441People said he wanted vengeance?
59441Perhaps I am not clear.... You know, you understand, that in this house... where... how shall I put it?..."
59441Queer, is n''t it?"
59441Really?
59441Say, girl, has n''t Pampa got a couple of bottles of champagne?
59441She could not take her eyes away from her; the girl, answering her shy smile, asked, simply,"What''s your name?
59441She had learned that he was ill;"Was it true?"
59441She had seen him lingering there in the street and had stepped out on the balcony for a moment.... Who was he?
59441She just lowers herself going to Juanita''s.... How am I looking, darling Doctor?
59441She was good- natured, full of spirit, and....""Well, what''s happened to her, do you suppose?"
59441She would have enjoyed the relief of striking out once at least at the perversity and hypocrisy her landlady represented...."What is it, señorita?"
59441Should he return to the place he had formerly occupied in life?
59441Should she let herself be carried along by whatever happened?
59441Should she send for the doctor?--"Just leave me alone, I want to be alone....""Are you angry with me?"
59441Should she try a hand at a gambling table, buy a lottery ticket, ask someone to lend her money...?
59441So that he, distinguished and fine as he is, should n''t be ruined by associating his life with that of a... someone like myself.... You see?
59441Society?
59441Something of a reputation, eh?"
59441Supposing she should feel perfectly certain that she was destined not to be good, and should return to the old life?
59441Supposing she should run away?
59441Tell me what you think?"
59441The plump lady''s voice rose above the others:"And why should we be bored with that sort of thing, Mr. Monsalvat?
59441Then she was also told that she must pay for the mannequin.--Pay for it?
59441Then, apparently more at ease, she added with a smile,"Why did you come to this house?
59441They all knew nothing about her, these people?
59441They lived like pigs?
59441To find her?
59441To live, do you hear?
59441To save it up?
59441To spend it on amusements?
59441Was he going mad?
59441Was he in love with Nacha?
59441Was he not betraying his real self, being unfaithful to the new Monsalvat, born of his recent struggles?
59441Was he perhaps a lunatic, who took pleasure in doing her harm?
59441Was he really what he appeared?
59441Was he then in love with Nacha?
59441Was he, perhaps intending to withdraw from society altogether?
59441Was his own record absolutely clean?
59441Was it likely that this girl could continue long in the nunnery you condemned her to?
59441Was it possible that Nacha loved him?
59441Was it this, perhaps, which kept them from noticing the approach of another dawn, already sending its heralds across the sky?
59441Was she dead?
59441Was she really fainting?
59441Was she, too, part of"the life"?
59441Was there, perhaps, some spiritual resemblance between them?
59441Was this the explanation of his actions that evening?
59441Well then-- was he going to fall in love with that kind of a woman, and make her represent an ideal, a duty, a reason for living?
59441Well, I''m not going to be made a fool of, understand?
59441Well, did n''t he know that Nacha was n''t there?
59441Well, had they ever lived any other way?
59441Well, what about the''City of Paris''that pays its employees so little they have to get money somewhere else?
59441Well, what''s to be done?
59441Well, where is he?"
59441What about today''s trip out there?
59441What can I do?
59441What can our distinguished visitors have thought?
59441What could I do?
59441What could he accomplish while men continued to be so full of evil?
59441What could he discuss with them except the trivial events of the social farce?
59441What could he do?
59441What could he say that he had not said?
59441What could he want of her?
59441What could she look forward to?
59441What did I say?"
59441What did all the rest matter if, in this course of conduct, he found what he recognized as the"Good"he craved?
59441What did he want of her?
59441What did she see?
59441What did the past matter?
59441What did this man look like, they wondered, and what could he and Nacha have talked about in that one fatal conversation?
59441What did you come here for?
59441What do you call that?
59441What do you mean by taking a child of seventeen into this house?
59441What do you want?..."
59441What good am I?"
59441What had Riga, weak, sensitive, the typical neurotic, the creature of whim and circumstance, to set against Monsalvat''s strength of mind and will?
59441What had become of her by this time?
59441What had he accomplished in a year?
59441What had her unhappy destiny brought her to?
59441What is there beyond our own sensations?
59441What is your name?"
59441What kind?
59441What made her sister so envious and jealous, and full of petty meanness?
59441What might such a feeling on her part lead to?
59441What more could I ask?
59441What more could any one do?"
59441What need had he to earn money?
59441What on earth have we to do with that kind of women?
59441What places did he frequent?
59441What real good had he ever accomplished?
59441What reasons did their comrade have to prevent them from breaking the presumptuous fool''s head?
59441What road was he going to choose?
59441What should I repent for?"
59441What should she reply?
59441What then can we accomplish?
59441What then?
59441What though it should prove unhappy?
59441What though she never saw him and could not see him?
59441What was Nacha after all?
59441What was Pampa going to say?
59441What was he going to do next?
59441What was he looking for?
59441What was he talking about?
59441What was he to do in a world without Nacha?
59441What was in store for her?
59441What was it he wanted now?
59441What was she but a slave, worth only so many hours work to her owner?
59441What was she looking forward to, there?
59441What was society but an abstraction?
59441What was the secret of this baffling mystery?
59441What was the strange feeling she had for the man?
59441What were her thoughts?
59441What were his occupations?
59441What were policemen''s clubs for except to use on such dangerous lunatics?
59441What were their lives but one continuous lie?
59441What will she get out of it?
59441What will you present her with?"
59441What would he say to her?
59441What''s the use?
59441When had culture ever existed apart from a certain amount of material wellbeing?
59441When?
59441Where could he see the girl?
59441Where could she find him?
59441Where should he go?
59441Where was she?
59441Where was this Eugenia?
59441Where?"
59441Who could tell what fatal inheritance was hers?
59441Who could that man be?
59441Who deceived you?"
59441Who else would have done what he did for me?
59441Who gave you the right to insult me?
59441Who is she?"
59441Who was this man?
59441Why a doctor?"
59441Why are you so strange?
59441Why could n''t she have even peace?
59441Why did he do that?
59441Why did he not look for her?
59441Why did he see everything in its darkest colors?
59441Why did he want to see her?
59441Why did n''t he come now to free her from all this suffering?
59441Why did she always act in this unaccountable way?
59441Why do you want to know who it is?
59441Why does n''t he have the man arrested?
59441Why had he come to her house to torment her?
59441Why had he gazed at her so persistently?
59441Why had he had to live forty years before understanding this?
59441Why had he spoken to her that way, knowing as he must that a woman of her kind is an outcast, and can not change the manner of life that makes her so?
59441Why had not Monsalvat appeared in that house of vice as she so desperately hoped, to rescue her?
59441Why had she dismissed him after listening so long to him, after confiding her own history so intimately?
59441Why let herself be saddened then?
59441Why let yourself suffer so?
59441Why must you go back again, if you do n''t want to?"
59441Why not dream?"
59441Why not?
59441Why sacrifice one''s life, and tranquillity, and happiness, for others?
59441Why should I?
59441Why should everything be so hard for me?"
59441Why should he wish to defend her when his doing so could only injure her?
59441Why should he?
59441Why should not Nacha live with them also, in fraternal companionship?
59441Why should she sacrifice herself?"
59441Why should she want to see him?
59441Why should you be so hard to suit?"
59441Why so many scruples about accepting money?
59441Why so much suffering?
59441Why stir up strikes?
59441Why was she living there near that man?
59441Why was there this incessant contradiction in her life?
59441Why were they so fat?
59441Why, did n''t you get married?"
59441Why?
59441Why?
59441Why?
59441Why?
59441Why?
59441Why?...
59441Will the tenement landlords who throw women and sick children out on the street listen to the voice of love?
59441Will they listen to any language other than that of check and bank note?
59441Will you really be my friend, really, in your heart?
59441Will you?"
59441With how much truth?
59441With so much wretchedness in the world, what could one man''s slow and small accomplishment matter?
59441With whom?
59441Would it be such a small thing to save her?
59441Yet whose fault was it?
59441Yet, free as he was from other entanglements why should he not accept the affection of this pretty and passionate girl?
59441You do n''t want to wreck his plans, eh?"
59441You have a home, have n''t you?"
59441You see?
59441asked Monsalvat,"Would n''t it be better to remember-- if the present is so sad?"
59441eh?"
59441or in love with another woman?
59441she asked; and"was she to blame?"
