58827Of what?

63527How do you propose to go about convincing the Saylor brothers they ought to let us have the asteroid back? 63527 How long were we floating around out there?"
63527Ma''am,said Bob, blinking,"did you say something?"
63527Say that again?
63527The asteroid--"You_ have_ to marry him?
63527This is some kind of dirty trick you and your grandfather cooked up?
63527What do you damned fools think you''re trying to do?
63527What do you think of this situation Billy?
63527What''s that?
63527What-- what will they do?

63527You can ask me now, ca n''t you, Bob?
63527_ Are_ you asking me, Bob?
63527A cold, completely disagreeable feminine voice said,"May I ask what you interlopers are doing on my asteroid?"
63527But how?
63527COSMIC YO- YO By ROSS ROCKLYNNE"Want an asteroid in your backyard?

63527Satisfied?"
63527Some screwball millionaire wants it for a backyard wedding see?
63527That meant he had been floating around out here-- how long?

63527What do you mean by waiting until the last minute to bring the asteroid?"
63527_ How?_"Starre''s blue eyes followed the long cable back to where it was attached around her ship''s narrow midsection.
38657And when am I to lose my sunbeam?
38657And whom should I marry, if you please, Mr Blenkinsop?
38657But look here,said Chuck,"why should it cost you anything?
38657But this marriage, Theodore,she said,"what can you do to have it set aside?"
38657But what do you think yourself?
38657By the way,I added,"where have you put the tiger?"
38657Could n''t you put him somewhere else, then?
38657Do I understand,I said, very gravely,"that you_ refuse_ to enter the lion- cage?"
38657Do you imagine,I asked,"can you really suppose I should be capable of entering that cage with anybody but yourself, Lurana?
38657Do you mean old Rajah?
38657Do you mean the lions?
38657Feeling pretty fit? 38657 Have you settled where?"
38657I think,said the Professor,"we may disregard the danger; but the expense-- have you thought what it will cost, Theodore?"
38657Not present at your own wedding?
38657Not you,he said,"what would you_ get_ by it, you know?
38657Not_ just_ yet?
38657Then you will sacrifice my life to mere appearances? 38657 What for, Theodore?
38657What should I care?
38657What''s the use of trying to make ourselves what we are not?
38657What_ can_ you want with a green shade?
38657Where is your mistress?
38657Why do n''t you own at once that you''d give anything to get out of it, Theodore?
38657Why should n''t the two young parties be allowed to please themselves?
38657Why,_ he''s_ all right-- in the cage along with the others-- where did you_ suppose_ he''d be-- loose?
38657With a man in a green shade? 38657 Withdraw now, Theodore?"
38657Would n''t that be rather_ smelly_, Lurana? 38657 You despise me, then, because I broke down at the critical moment?"
38657You''ve heard nothing from the Home Office yet, I suppose?
38657_ I_ want to give up the whole thing? 38657 A sensitive?
38657And even if it did, what should_ I_ gain?
38657And how did they propose to perform a ceremony at which, as they must be fully aware by this time, the bridegroom would be conspicuous by his absence?
38657Are_ you_, Theodore?
38657Besides, what satisfactory explanation of my present position could I offer?
38657But are you that_ kind_ of man, Theodore, I wonder?"
38657But if ever I got the feeling that I was_ afraid_ of them lions or they were n''t afraid o''me, do you think I''d trust myself inside that cage?
38657But what, after all, were we going to request?
38657Could I have mislaid the spectacles?
38657For a green shade, which would probably only serve to infuriate the animals?"
38657Had he borrowed, not only my frock coat, and trousers, but also my name for the ceremony?
38657I could keep the cuttings; they would always be there to remind me that once at least-- but what''s the use of talking?
38657I never knew till it was too late-- you_ do_ believe me, do n''t you?"
38657I should never have acted as I did if that horrid Frenchwoman had n''t told me-- Oh,_ what_ would I not give if all this had never been?"
38657I was too modest, for, of course, it was incredible that I, who was so full of_ sangfroid_, could object to the tiger for any other reason?
38657If we could n''t agree about such a trifling thing as where we are to be married, we_ should_ be unsuited to one another, should n''t we?
38657Is it possible you did n''t know?"
38657Is not that so?"
38657It can not have fallen to many men''s lot to look on as passive spectators at their own wedding-- but what choice had I?
38657It was an uncomfortable method of getting married, no doubt, but after all, what man ever_ was_ comfortable at his own wedding?
38657It will probably be enormous, more than I could possibly afford-- unless you are ready to go halves?"
38657My word, though, you''ve given yourself a nasty cut; got any spider''s web about you?
38657Now, the point is,_ will_ a cage of lions strike them as coming under that description?"
38657Perhaps you will kindly explain?"
38657Tell me; was it the tiger?"
38657Then do you mean to say you prefer that coarse, middle- aged, lion- taming person to me, Theodore?"
38657There, what did I_ tell_ you?"
38657To satisfy the lions?
38657Was it so absolutely certain that this Onion had the legal right to claim her as his wife?
38657What could I do?
38657What matter where or how the ceremony take place, or what it costs, provided it makes you mine for ever?"
38657Where would they put the lions, you know?"
38657Who could possibly be afraid of lions-- especially with Mr Niono to protect us?"
38657Why was I so insane as to set my heart on our being married in a den of disgusting lions?
38657Why, how_ could_ we?"
38657Will you let me be married in my own way?"
38657You are anxious to make this young lady''s acquaintance with a view to paying your addresses to her?
38657[ Illustration:"And whom should I marry, Mr Blenkinsop?"]
38657_ Was_ the act irrevocable after all?
38657_ was n''t_ it, Theodore?"
38657but how, why?"
38657said the Professor, who had been a silent and unnoticed witness of our dispute till then,"What is this talk about giving up the marriage?
38657she cried,"why do you come near me now?
15541''Did n''t see me, did you?'' 15541 A bird to give to Jill a--""Quill?"
15541After all, life to be beautiful and to reach rightly towards eternity should be helpful, and self- forgetful; do you not think so?

15541May I come in?
15541May I have some of the money you''re going to leave me, to give now, just as Ethelwyn and Beth did?
15541May we go away and think it over?
15541Mother, this is the nicest place, and I love the Stevenses; but why are they sad around the eyes, and dressed in black, like you? 15541 My name is Nan,"said the visitor as soon as she caught Elizabeth''s eye,"Who are you?

15541Now what comes?

15541Pumpkin pies do n''t go out of style like clothes, do they, grandmother?
15541Should you think,Elizabeth paused to say, in a somewhat muffled voice, entirely owing to plum cake and not grief,"that one of us is married too?"
15541The pie, too?
15541There were two little girls who dressed exactly alike, and, as they were very near the same age, it was difficult to tell which was the--"Elder?
15541Was he a bawheady?
15541Was it not in''Bleak House''that that exceedingly unpleasant personage used to give away her children''s pocket money? 15541 Well Ethelwyn,"said Aunty Stevens, meeting her,"how was the picnic?"
15541Well, chicken,said grandmother,"how did you like the reception?"
15541Well, sir?

15541What''s them?
15541What, sister?
15541When the children are thievish and given to bad language and lying, what do you do?

15541Wiggly? 15541 Will it cost very much, Joe?"
15541Would my father enjoy preaching my funeral sermon, do you think?
15541Would you like that?
15541Would you sell him?
15541Yes, mother, I will, but what about the children--?
15541Yes, you are quite right, but what are you among so many?
15541Yes; why on earth do n''t you come?
15541You can stay awhile, ca n''t you, Bobby?
15541You can teach them to make pies like mine--"Yes, they can be taught to do all sorts of things about a house--"And Dick?
15541''I thought,''said one,''that maple sugar parties were very----''""''Pop''lar?
15541''What about?''
15541''Will you be good and not get lost?''
15541After the children told her what Bobby had said about his grandfather losing money, they asked anxiously,"Oh mother, did he lose anything of ours?"
15541And will the little lines come between your eyes?"
15541And would you mind telling me a thing or two, I have been thinking about lately?
15541Anyway I wish you would n''t talk in the middle of the wedding-- and give her clothes, and things to eat, eh?
15541Are n''t we having a good time, Aunty Stevens?"
15541Are n''t you mended up well, though?"
15541Are you a hundred, or eleven, or is that your size shoe?"
15541Ca n''t you ever get things right?
15541Did these used to be Miss Dorothy''s?"
15541Did you ever?"
15541Do n''t you think, dear Mrs. Stevens, that the whole trouble with the world is its selfishness?"
15541Has their father gone to Paradise too?"
15541Have You Seen Our Complete Catalogue?
15541He stopped beside a flowing--""Rill?"
15541I told him''bout my list, and he laughed, and gave it to me, and asked me if I did n''t know''bout letter boxes?
15541If your grandmother, my dear, should leave me out, till my hair soaked off-- say, sister,"she broke off suddenly to ask--"what keeps our hair on?"
15541Is this your house?
15541Peter''s?"
15541Pine trees grew near, and there below them and very near, was the great silvery blue sea, with the sunshine flashing on its tossing waves?
15541Rayburn?"
15541She kept right on till by and by She took a peek into the sky--""Oh, what did she see?"
15541Stevens?"
15541Then, too, there was a parrot on a pole, who greeted them with,"Well, well, well, what''s all this?
15541There are few people living here but fisher folk--""Christ''s people?"
15541They are poor and need help--""Are we rich people now, and can we buy things for them?"
15541Well, what do you s''pose,"leaning forward impressively--"becomes of the bodies the cannibals eat?"
15541Were there holes in his pockets?"
15541What did you think about them for?"
15541What is more delightful than a re- union of college girls after the summer vacation?
15541What made you, Bobby?"
15541What was it they were saying about a tide?"
15541What''s the good of keeping money?
15541What''s this thing you have in your side?"
15541When will she come home, mother?"
15541While they were away, Aunty Stevens said,"Is n''t that a pretty hard test?"
15541Will you come back to the porch, and sit in a Chippendale chair, and let me take your picture for the sale at the church?"
15541Will you have to work so hard, motherdy, here?
15541Would you mind giving up these things to help pay the hospital expenses, or to buy a wheel chair or some comfort for Dick?"
15541did he invite us?"
21248Any mail for us?
21248But how is one to get the diamond leaf if he does n''t? 21248 But what will he think of you, if you do n''t?"
21248But why should she send it by special delivery if it is n''t impawtant?
21248Could n''t it be Success? 21248 Did you tell him the reason?"
21248Did you understand what I meant, Lloyd?
21248Do n''t you remember how long we talked about it to- day down in the clover- patch?
21248Do tell me, Miss Lloyd,he begged,"what is that wonderfully and fearfully made thing in the front of the pulpit?
21248Do you know it is almost that time now?
21248Do you know why?
21248Does_ she_ know?
21248Eugenia,asked Betty,"have you thought of that other rhyme that brides always consider?
21248For goodness''sake, what is it, then?
21248Have n''t you heard of the traditional charms that must be baked in a bride''s cake? 21248 How does it happen that Logan and Stanley are not going with Miss Bonham?"
21248How does that happen?
21248Is it any wondah that I''m neahly wild with curiosity?
21248Is n''t their time up, too, or ca n''t they tear themselves away?
21248Is that the wedding where you are to be maid of honor, Princess?
21248Is that what makes the fearsome discord?
21248It''s all over with that gown of yours, too, is n''t it?
21248Joyce,she whispered,"do you mind if I come over into your bed?
21248Miss Mary,asked her listener, solemnly,"do you girls really believe all these signs and wonders?
21248Nothing of Dickens or Scott or Irving or Cooper?
21248Now what does that make me think of?
21248Now why did n''t I ask him to take me and the snake on home in the cart with him?
21248Now, to be explicit, just what is it I shall see?
21248Oh, do you know a legend about it?
21248Oh, mamma, is it_ true_?
21248Oh,_ what_ did the postman bring?
21248Ornaments for the top?
21248Shall I open this, too?
21248So that''s why you are so happy over your sister''s good fortune, is it?
21248Speaking of farewells,said Rob,"who- all''s coming down to the station with me to wave good- by to Miss Bonham?
21248The name of the prince need not always be_ Man_, need it?
21248Then what did_ she_ say?
21248Then what have you read, may I ask?
21248Well, do n''t I know that?
21248Were the Indians after you again?
21248What are they?
21248What are we going to do now?
21248What are we going to do?
21248What are you laughing at?
21248What do you mean, Rob Moore?
21248What do you see?
21248What do you think I ought to do?
21248What hornet''s nest have I stirred up now?
21248What is it, Dora?
21248What made Bernice act so? 21248 What on earth do you suppose is the mattah with Bernice?"
21248What shall I do?
21248What''s that about warnings?
21248What''s that about yours truly?
21248What''s the matter, Mary?
21248What''s up now?
21248When is it to be?
21248Where are you going to take us, Miss Lloyd?
21248Where is the fair Elaine?
21248Where is your doll?
21248Who are her young ladies, and why?
21248Who else is going to help?
21248Who''ll keep an eagle eye on you?
21248Whose fault is it?
21248Why did n''t you ask somebody?
21248Why should you cut yourself off from a good time and a good friend by snubbing him? 21248 Will you all come over to the store and have some peanuts?"
21248Yes, but you did n''t stay happy, did you?
21248You would n''t call those three girls at that last table, Gibson girls, would you?
21248_ Why?_asked Lloyd again.
21248_ Why?_asked Lloyd.
21248_ Would n''t_ you?
21248And if you do n''t explain, what will he think of you?
21248And in the midst of showing us that she exclaimed:"''Oh, girls, what do you think?
21248And what part is it to play in the ceremony?"
21248Are those morning- glories artificial?"
21248Besides, if she feels slighted, why does n''t she keep it to herself, and not try to get even by giving Miss Bonham a false impression of her?
21248But Joyce would n''t fool me about anything as big as this, would she?"
21248Can you remember to say just that?"
21248Can you see all right, Bernice?"
21248Can you tell me where she has drifted?"
21248Do n''t you see how I care-- how I must have cared all this time, to let the thought of you make such a difference in my life?"
21248Do n''t you see it is somebody''s haid?''
21248Do n''t you see that it is Philip''s head with Mary''s on that shilling?"
21248Do n''t you see?
21248Do n''t you wonder who''ll get the charms in the bride''s cake?
21248Do n''t you?
21248Do n''t you?
21248Do you remember all that?"
21248Have you my silver yardstick with you to- night, dear?"
21248How about you, Bradford?"
21248How could I without making Bernice appeah ridiculous?"
21248I thought you were in college?"
21248I''ve been wanting to ask you for some time, why is it that she seems so down on the Little Colonel?"
21248I''ve talked to you as if I were your grandmother, have n''t I?"
21248If you have n''t any engagement for the afternoon will you go horseback- riding with me?"
21248Is it a doorway or a giant picture- frame?
21248Is it from Jack or Holland or Cousin Kate?"
21248Is n''t that enough?"
21248Is n''t that it?"
21248It was only the friendly thing to do, was n''t it?"
21248It will be quite neat and symbolical, do n''t you think?
21248Like a rose- leaf, is it not?
21248See the way the hole is punched, just between those two ugly old heads?
21248She had caught the question,"Then are you going to warn her?"
21248She made up a line:"''So what will Joyce Ware if she meets a great bear?''
21248Take it back, please; I promised Papa Jack--""Promised him what?"
21248Then Joyce asked:"Did n''t you see the way Bernice snubbed her last night at the gate, when we left The Beeches?"
21248Then Lloyd leaned over the banister to call:"What''s the mattah, Rob?
21248Then as the woman finished skewering her hair into a tight knot she relaxed into friendliness far enough to ask,"Going far yourself?"
21248Then, in a stage whisper, he asked,"Aunt Jane, can you tell me?
21248Tremont?"
21248Was n''t she, Malcolm?
21248Was there ever such a glorious morning?"
21248What are you up to now, Miss Stork?"
21248What did she do?"
21248What greater honor could she have than to be chosen as the confidante of the most brilliant pupil ever enrolled at Warwick Hall?
21248What is the mattah?
21248What makes girls do that way, Betty?
21248What makes you ask such a question?"
21248Where did I put that volume of Tennyson?"
21248Who ever dreamed of seeing_ you_ here?
21248Why would n''t Bernice come with you?"
21248Why, what''s the matter?"
21248Will they come true?"
21248Will you, if I give you a book?"
21248Would n''t you like me to read to you awhile every morning?"
21248Would n''t you like to see the place where those snow- rose garlands grow?"
21248Would the house- party at The Locusts join the house- party at The Beeches in giving a series of tableaux at their lawn fête that night?
21248Would you mind telling me what the measure was your father gave you that your prince must be?"
21248Writing to Alex Shelby, are you?"
21248You do bead- work, do n''t you, Mary?
21248You nevah in yoah wildest dreams thought of that combination, now did you?"
21248You''ll keep the turquoise if we count it merely a friendship stone, wo n''t you?"
21248_ Why_ must it be blue?"
21248and Betty''s reply,"What''s the use?
43112Addie Whyte is n''t worse?
43112And does Connie expect never to be tried?
43112And does n''t Lancey mind?
43112And not dear?
43112Are we really?
43112Are you quite well again, Connie?
43112But what is the present?
43112Connie dear,it said,"where are you, and what''s the matter with the drawing- room?"
43112Connie, dear,she said,"do n''t you understand that it must make a great difference?
43112Connie, dear?
43112Connie, dearest,said mamma,"how can you fancy such things?
43112Connie, is that you?
43112Dearest Connie, in the rain?
43112Did you know, Frank,asked Lady Honor,"that Hugo is expected back next week?"
43112Do you mean to be governesses?
43112Do you think she is one of the little girls?
43112Do you think so?
43112Do you-- do you really think it is going to be all right?
43112Eh, Connie? 43112 Evey dear, your birthday is not ending as brightly as it began; however--""There was no letter?"
43112Have they only those two children-- the girls you spoke of?
43112Have you seen him?
43112How can we tell which room will be theirs?
43112How do you do, Mrs Percy?
43112How have you learnt to play the organ so beautifully? 43112 How you do fuss-- why did n''t you make the servants fetch Persica in?"
43112I am so glad you''ve come home, and now we may have a nice evening, may n''t we?
43112I hope you did n''t mind Charley running after you? 43112 I may go to see them soon, may n''t I, and everything be the same?"
43112I suppose there is nothing we can do to help the Whytes?
43112I suppose,I said, rather disagreeably--"I suppose Lady Honor made fun of my baby name?"
43112I wonder if the man downstairs has anything to do with the papering and painting?
43112Is Mrs Fetherston at home?
43112Is anything the matter?
43112Is he going to see his cousin?
43112Is n''t Uncle Hugo a darling?
43112Is papa there?
43112Is there anything the matter, darling?
43112It''s what is called moral courage, is n''t it?
43112Lady Honor is always so funny, is n''t she?
43112Lady Honor is n''t vexed, are you, Lady Honor?
43112Major Whyte,I said,"please may we tell you about it?
43112Mamma, mamma,I sobbed, and once I had begun my tears came like a thunderstorm,"do you know?
43112Oh, Eliza, why is n''t the drawing- room done?
43112Oh, by- the- by,I said to her,"did your jackets, or whatever it was, come the next day?"
43112Oh, papa,I said,"is it about the Whytes?--is it all right?"
43112Papa, do look at those begonias-- but-- shouldn''t we introduce ourselves first?
43112Poor Connie,said Mary,"Evey has bullied you out of your nice comfortable lazy ways rather too much, has n''t she?
43112Shall I tell you_ us_, now?
43112Shall we go to the drawing- room?
43112Then they are not-- not rich?
43112They_ will_ be sorry, I suppose,I added to mamma, when we were sitting alone;"but not_ very_, do you think?
43112Was n''t that funny?
43112Was n''t there something else rather particular, that you had to ask about, if possible, at once?
43112Well, darling?
43112Well, then, will you promise?
43112What are you crying for?
43112What are you in such a brown study about, Connie?
43112What is all this?
43112What is it, Hugo?
43112What is the matter, Connie dear?
43112What old lady? 43112 What_ is_ the matter, mamma?"
43112When should we go, do you think?
43112White?
43112Who can that be?
43112Who could she be but some old lunatic?
43112Who-- who are you then? 43112 Whom is it from?
43112Why are you to be exempt from the common lot?
43112Why are you trembling so, Connie?
43112Why do you care so for the letter?
43112Will you step in?
43112Wo n''t you come into the dining- room?
43112You do n''t mind Mrs Percy going home alone, I hope?
43112You do n''t think you have caught cold? 43112 You have done nothing wrong-- what are you so frightened about?"
43112You remember it, Connie? 43112 You should n''t waste your time in writing verses, instead of doing your lessons, should he, Mrs Percy?"
43112You will remember my face, I think?
43112You would n''t like to send for Anna Gale or the twins to spend the day with you to- morrow, would you?
43112You''ll join our poor work, wo n''t you, Connie?
43112Your aunt?
43112_ Evie_,she whispered( I spell it"Evie,"because I know that was how mamma_ thought_ it),"do you hear, Connie?"
43112_ May_ we look at the conservatory? 43112 ` Connie?''"
43112A thought crossed my mind-- could it be one of the Whyte boys dressed up to frighten us?
43112And is it always the same thing?
43112And this is Connie?
43112And what can they do for the present?
43112And what have you been doing with yourself this dull day?"
43112And who are you, pray?"
43112And why do you care so for a stupid letter?"
43112Are you clever at things like that?"
43112But I do n''t want any fuss-- do you hear, Anna?"
43112But I-- what do you think I did?
43112But then seeing us there he came forward a little way, courteously,"I beg your pardon, wo n''t you come in?"
43112Connie,"she went on,"did you hear that dear child''s name?"
43112Cut off your hair, Connie?"
43112Did your father ever look at you as papa did at me?"
43112Do n''t you hear me, child-- can''t you speak?"
43112Do say, if you feel at all chilly?"
43112Do you do much gardening yourself, Miss-- no, wo n''t you tell me your first name?"
43112Do you know about how naughty I''ve been?"
43112Do you know her address, mamma?"
43112Do you know you and Mary are really rather like each other?
43112Do you think that''s wrong?
43112Does n''t she suit her name?"
43112For he''s so fond of them all-- could he not make it up to them?"
43112Frank,"she added tremulously,"my boy, Frank-- are you not going to speak to me, too?"
43112I suppose you think yourself a lady?"
43112I think Constantia prettier; do n''t you?"
43112I think it''s almost more brave of_ him_ to be brave than if he were strong and big, do n''t you?"
43112I wonder if the others have seen it?"
43112Is n''t it a nice room, Connie?
43112It is difficult to blame them for spoiling me; is it not?
43112It takes a lot of time, does n''t it?"
43112Now could you?"
43112Now, have you the courage to beard the-- to come with me to Mrs Fetherston alone?
43112Now, is it your place or mine, Evey, to introduce all these brothers of yours to Miss Percy, or shall we let things settle themselves?
43112Oh, mamma, dear little, sweet, unselfish mother-- was there,_ could_ there ever be any one so kind as you?
43112Only will you please let me be more useful to you?
43112Perhaps it will be wisest for me to remember this, and not expect ever hardly to see them again; but-- there is mamma calling me-- what can it be?
43112Perhaps you could help us, Connie?
43112Perhaps, papa, Miss Percy can tell us all we want to know?"
43112Shall I send for her in the afternoon?"
43112She wants to know if you will let Connie-- mayn''t I say` Connie''?--come to luncheon at her house with all of us?
43112Suddenly a feeble ray of light caught my eyes-- where was it coming from?
43112Suppose she really had some message for Captain or Mrs Whyte?"
43112The only thing was-- are you sure it is n''t anything that matters?
43112Then I said timidly:"Mamma, do you think he will ever forgive me?
43112Then the thought of her cruel trials came over me as it had never done before-- how often I had grudged my sympathy to her?
43112Then you are one of the Whyte children; let me see-- not the eldest?"
43112They do very well, do n''t they?
43112Was it not more than good of him?
43112Was n''t it a funny dream?
43112What could it be?
43112What right had she to call the Yew Trees-- mamma''s own old house, which would be_ my_ house some day--"a cottage"?
43112What''s there to be ashamed of?"
43112Where were all my unworthy fears that Lady Honor had spoken"against me"to the Whytes?
43112Who can that queer woman be?"
43112Who could have helped it?
43112Who do you say you are?"
43112Why ca n''t you be satisfied that it''s I-- only I-- to blame?
43112Why do n''t you write to the old lady,"--what was it that gave me a queer thrill as I said the words?--"and ask if there is anything the matter?"
43112Wo n''t it be nice?
43112You must think me out of my mind, Mrs Percy-- it is Mrs Percy?"
43112You remember what Charley said the other day?"
43112You would n''t like to see me a second Anna Gale, I hope?"
43112he said;"where do you get such ridiculous notions from?"
36046''Mother dear, may I go swim?'' 36046 ''Thout no cake?"
36046And Miss Cox must go----"Why do n''t you all go?
36046And how would you like me to tell Mr. Tucker you called him middle- aged?
36046And what did you say?
36046Are n''t boys the limit, though?
36046Are n''t we wet enough without you?
36046Are n''t you and your sweet daughter going back to England soon? 36046 Are you Blanche Johnson?"
36046Are you ill?
36046Blanche,I said, rather sternly,"did you ever cook any before you went to school?"
36046Brillig?
36046Brother?
36046But how about the first time you rode him?
36046But tell me, Miss Allison, do you never see nor hear from your mother''s family in England?
36046But will you answer my letters?
36046But, Father,I wailed,"can we go on and have the picnic?"
36046But, Sally, why do you hope it is the end?
36046Cook? 36046 Did I hear your name aright?
36046Did Miss Cox know Mr. Gordon very well in those old days?
36046Did he get mixed up with the laundry?
36046Did n''t Miss Cox look sweet in that blue dress? 36046 Did n''t your faithful Mary swear to take you safe to shore?
36046Did she come in just now?
36046Did she say anything?
36046Did you ever hear such a noise in your life as that old dog makes just simply living? 36046 Did you ever see such a lot of boy grabbers in your life?"
36046Do n''t oo want some?
36046Do n''t you ever go in bathing?
36046Do n''t you like the feel of it?
36046Do n''t you want no choclid cake an''no blue mawnge?
36046Do you s''pose Mabel is going to content herself with a sand bath?
36046Do you s''pose on a desert island we would find ourselves littered up with a lot of doo- dads?
36046Gordon? 36046 Had n''t we better start the kitchen fire before we go out, Dum?"
36046Have n''t I been waiting for years and years? 36046 Have you known Mr. Gordon very long?"
36046How could people in one short month collect so much mess?
36046How do you get it so grubby?
36046How do you like this?
36046How kin you git something when they ai n''t no more of them, and how kin you pay fer something when it is valued for its bein''so useful and so rare? 36046 How long were they engaged?
36046How much?
36046How old does a child have to be to collect insurance?
36046How was the water; pretty warm?
36046Is all of this beautifying for the benefit of Harvie and Shorty, who by the way are coming out in about an hour? 36046 Is n''t he a sweet old man?"
36046Is n''t he just great?
36046Is n''t it a pity they are so old?
36046Is n''t it lovely?
36046Is n''t this room wonderful?
36046May we go upstairs and see the sleeping porches, and maybe we can help you some?
36046Not know about it? 36046 Now what are we going to do with these babies, Page?"
36046Oh, is n''t it exciting? 36046 Oh, no, Brindle promised me to catch all the moths, did n''t you, Brindle, old boy?"
36046Poultry play?
36046She is a wonderfully charming girl and so pretty, do n''t you think so, Miss Binks?
36046That''s so, but why this remark?
36046This is rather an unusual time for bathing, is it not?
36046Was n''t that grand?
36046Was n''t that horrid of her?
36046Well, how did I know? 36046 Well, in the first place you are sewing with a needle as big as a tenpenny nail and who ever heard of whipping on lace with thirty- six thread?"
36046What are we going to look like at a ball with these noses and necks?
36046What do you fancy Mabel wants to get out of your cousin?
36046What inventory? 36046 What is Sleepy''s real name?"
36046What is going to make her like it, Miss Pinky?
36046What is it, Blanche? 36046 What race has there been and what battle?"
36046What''s all this? 36046 What''s the joke?"
36046What, me? 36046 When did you come?"
36046Where''s that there can- opener, a perfectly good one that I bought from a peddler? 36046 Who is to go over to Norfolk with me to meet the guests, also the cook lady from Keysville?"
36046Who, me? 36046 Why do n''t you speak up, girl?
36046Why do we go so far? 36046 Why modest?"
36046Why, Page, why are you making a little submarine of yourself? 36046 Will you always employ the Venetian method and throw the babies out in deep water and let them sink or swim?"
36046Would n''t it be just grand to be cast on a desert island? 36046 You and I do n''t have to be grown up, do we, Mary?"
36046''Who put you up there?''
36046Ai n''t you gonter gib yo''Mammy a bite?
36046And did n''t she blush, though, when she said she never wanted to go to Norfolk?"
36046And is there any buttermilk here?"
36046And now what was to be said to Mrs. Rand?
36046As for a finger- nail file, what could equal the nutmeg- grater?"
36046But conscience whispered:"Page Allison, are n''t you ashamed of yourself?
36046But do n''t I smell buttermilk, too?"
36046But tell me, Miss Allison, are you American?"
36046But when is that so- called paw of yourn comin''?"
36046But would it not be more respectful like to Miss Cox if we female maidens adorned of ourselves in more gorgeous affectations?"
36046By the way, do you know who the swimmer was we saw out in the bay?
36046Could n''t you spare me just one, Blanche?"
36046Could that be Blanche?"
36046Dear Tuckers: How can I ever tell you what a good time I have had with you?
36046Did n''t the girls tell you he is coming out to stay over Sunday?"
36046Did n''t we agree last winter that the best thing to do with Mabel was to be very polite to her?
36046Did she marry your father?"
36046Did we not have"trade lasts"enough to last''til morning if sleep had not overtaken us?
36046Did you see how she squared her chin when you and Dee talked her down?"
36046Did you think I''d be cleaning up after a nigger in anybody''s house but my own?"
36046Do I look crazy?
36046Do n''t that beat all?
36046Do n''t you know your Alice?
36046Do n''t you love me just a little?"
36046Do you realize that our vacation is more than half over?
36046Do you think I am going to let your first hop be a failure?
36046Do you think perhaps she has eaten them all herself?"
36046Do you think that would serve as balm to his wounded feelings?"
36046Gordon who?"
36046Had not Tweedles and I spent days going over the menu to be sure we forgot nothing and had everything we should and nothing we should n''t?
36046Had she not put his mind at rest for the time being at least?
36046Had we not, everyone of us danced every dance, except the fatal one that I sat out?
36046He started this way:"What do you think of long engagements?"
36046Her name was Lucy Page, was it not?"
36046How are you, Tucker?
36046How could old age claim such a boy as Jeffry Tucker?
36046How old was the child?
36046How should you like for me to tell him you said so?"
36046I am going to trust him to you, do you understand?''
36046I cracked the cup and broke the saucer the first night at the beach, did n''t I, Dee?"
36046I do n''t believe you remembered any of my instructions at all, did you, Annie?"
36046I think he works too hard and he says he knows he does, but what is a doctor to do?
36046I wonder,--shall I meet you all again when I am"Back at School with the Tucker Twins?"
36046If''n she calls herself a lady, wherefore do n''t she entrance like one?
36046Is n''t it a good thing we got out so early in the morning?"
36046Is n''t it too bad after all his patience with me that I wait until he is gone to show what I can do?
36046Is n''t my hair white with waiting?"
36046Is this the method you housekeepers have employed all summer to have such good bread?
36046Just before we got on the train he said to me in a cold and formal tone:"May I write to you, Miss Allison?"
36046Mr. Gordon, will you please arrange those cushions in the stern for me?
36046Now which do you choose to have, biscuit or waffles?"
36046Oh, hast thou forgotten how soon we must sever?
36046Oh, hast thou forgotten this day we must part?
36046Oh, why art thou silent, Kathleen Mavourneen?
36046Oh, why art thou silent, thou voice of my heart?
36046On the way home he met a neighbour who genially inquired:"And how mooch did your pig be after weighing, Paddy?"
36046Page confessing to a fondness for the opposite sex?
36046Rand?"
36046Rand?"
36046Rand?"
36046Sawing gourds was sweet music compared to it What on earth do you mean by this peculiar performance?"
36046The blue mountains glow in the sun''s golden light; Ah, where is the spell that once hung on my numbers?
36046Then why art thou silent, Kathleen Mavourneen?''"
36046Then why art thou silent, thou voice of my heart?
36046Usually she bore a conscious air of virtue and an expression that plainly said:"Am I not a paragon to be sticking it out with John?"
36046Was it a boy or girl?"
36046Was it not Miss Page Allison?"
36046Was there any reason for keeping it secret?"
36046We kept wondering why Zebedee did not tell her and finally quite casually he asked:"Where do you think we had better put Gordon, Jinny?"
36046Were we not all of us as red as roses?
36046What are stupid old newspapers for, anyhow?
36046What are you doing in Norfolk?"
36046What call is she got to be pryin''and appearin''auspiciously into all my intensils?
36046What could be more romantic than a nice passionate hot cake all smothered in sweet, sticky, loving molasses?"
36046What do you mean?"
36046What excuse could you give the boys?"
36046What has happened?"
36046What inventory?"
36046What is it?"
36046What kind of a locker- up are you, Zebedee, anyhow?"
36046What''s the reason we could n''t all go on a picnic?
36046Where''s that so- called paw of yours?
36046Where''s your brother?"
36046Which kind do you like best?"
36046Who are her friends?"
36046Who could n''t?
36046Who said we did n''t?"
36046Who wants to read them?"
36046Whoever heard of the father of the bride having to take care of the ring?"
36046Whose wedding?"
36046Why could he not realize that I was nothing but a little girl who occasionally played lady?
36046Why do n''t you get up a game of auction?
36046Why not sit down right here and have our repast?"
36046Why, land''s sakes alive, what are you handin''out to me?
36046You do n''t mean you''ve got some all made?"
36046You like boys, do you?
36046[ Illustration: Peeping in, we saw the game in full swing--_Page 145_]"Do you find it so?
36046[ Illustration:"Why do n''t you speak up, girl?"
36046ain''my ittle take pitty?"
36046what, slumbering still?
25865A Millennium plate? 25865 A dog?"
25865A lady?
25865All of''em?
25865All right, Kate, fix her some, wo n''t you?
25865And were you out in it this afternoon,continued the stranger,"driving rapidly between here and North Point?"
25865And_ will_ you look at this? 25865 Anything I can do for you to- day, Puss?"
25865Are you staying long in Philadelphia, Miss Fairfield?
25865Borrow this house?
25865But has n''t a lady been here in the last hour, to look at costumes for a play?
25865But how can I set them off?
25865But what would become of our family?
25865But where are they, Hopalong?
25865Ca n''t I make the garlands for you?
25865Ca n''t you make her come, Hilda?
25865Can you wait until nine o''clock or thereabouts for your dinner? 25865 Do n''t you think it would be better,"she went on, hoping to make a helpful suggestion,"if we should put in to some house until the storm is over?
25865Do n''t you think, Roger dear, that you had better get a new belt and be done with it?
25865Do you own a large black racing automobile?
25865Do you think I ought to have given up the matinà © e, and stayed at home to study?
25865Earthquake swallowed our house?
25865For what offence?
25865Have you any more of them?
25865Hello, Hopalong,said Patty,"where are all the people?"
25865How could she say so? 25865 How could you get that belt mended so quickly?"
25865How did you know that?
25865How do you finally induce it to move?
25865How much do you want for them?
25865How old is he?
25865I ca n''t go away and leave her here,said Patty,"the dear little thing, what shall we do with her?"
25865I do n''t know,said Elise,"where does she live?"
25865I do n''t wonder,said Mr. Farrington,"and now, my man, can you ring your people up, and is there anybody to take care of the car?"
25865I know it,said Patty,"but what can we do?
25865I will surely make this up to you in some way, and now, will you just show me about the house a bit, as I''ve never been here before?
25865I''m awful hungry,said Patty,"and I am pretty tired, but the play is over, is n''t it, Nan?
25865I''m not really ill, am I, Dr. Martin? 25865 Is Miss Sinclair here?"
25865Is n''t it funny?
25865Is n''t it nice?
25865Is there company for dinner, Miss Patty?
25865Is this Mr. Richard Phelps?
25865Is your quilt nearly done, Miss Bender?
25865It is; what can I do for you?
25865It''s all over, is n''t it?
25865It''s quarter of two,he said,"do you suppose we can get in at this hour?"
25865Just shut us up in some room by ourselves, and we''ll stay there, and not bother you a bit; unless perhaps we can help you?
25865Never mind, Patty, darling,she said,"and try to forgive me, wo n''t you?
25865Now is n''t this nice?
25865Now, how are you going to catch your father and Nan?
25865Of course I will,said Bertha,"but will there be time?"
25865Of course I will,said Patty jumping up,"what is the secret you have to tell me?
25865Oh, Miss Bender,cried Bertha,"then wo n''t you quilt it?
25865Oh, Patty,cried Elise Farrington, as she met her in the cloakroom,"what do you think?
25865Oh, is this a real present then? 25865 Oh, my dear, is that so?
25865Only this one,said Patty, laughing,"what do you think she ought to eat?"
25865Patty Fairfield, are you crazy? 25865 Patty,"called Nan''s voice from the hall,"you''ll go with me this afternoon, wo n''t you?
25865Shall we go on, Mother?
25865She''s your stepmother, is n''t she?
25865So that''s your name, is it?
25865Tell a straight story, Patty,said her father,"is it one of the neighbour''s children, or did you kidnap it?"
25865That''s almost finished, is n''t it, Bertha?
25865That''s better yet,said Patty;"where''s the book?"
25865The Fenwick house?
25865There''s no fine for running over a cloud, is there, Dad?
25865Well, Pattikins,he said,"can you feel at home in this big house, after living so long in our apartment?"
25865Well, then, where is it?
25865Well, what else could it be?
25865What are you going to do with them all, Nan?
25865What are you laughing at?
25865What did you do?
25865What do you mean by running away in this fashion, and upsetting the whole bazaar, and driving all your friends crazy with anxiety about you?
25865What do you think will happen, Patty? 25865 What do you think, grandma?"
25865What is it, young ladies?
25865What is it?
25865What is the matter?
25865What is your number?
25865What makes you think we kidnapped a baby, my friend?
25865What time is it, and how soon shall we reach the Warners''?
25865What''s it all about?
25865What''s that?
25865What''s the matter?
25865What''s the matter?
25865Whatever would I do without you? 25865 When do you think it will begin any such performance as that?"
25865When is this play of yours to come off?
25865Where are they, then?
25865Where are you bound?
25865Where are you?
25865Who is she?
25865Who''s going with you, Patty, to the costumer''s?
25865Whom did you expect?
25865Why do you look so shocked and scared to death?
25865Why does n''t it go?
25865Why, what was the matter with it?
25865Winthrop and I fixed up that quarrel record, just for fun; is n''t it a good one?
25865Would n''t it be fun to dress him up as one?
25865Would you care to part with them both?
25865Yes, is n''t she a beautiful cat? 25865 Yes, ma''am,"said Patty demurely,"what''s the use of having an imagination, if you ca n''t make it work for you?"
25865Yes; why? 25865 You can make it obey your will, ca n''t you?"
25865You know how it is, do n''t you, Ken? 25865 You think so, do you?"
25865You''re sure you know the way, are n''t you, Roger?
25865Your prescription sounds attractive,said Patty,"but where shall I go?"
25865Your school keeps very late, does n''t it?
25865Are you passing those, Roger?
25865Are you sure your parents wo n''t mind?"
25865As they passed him, Patty smiled pleasantly, and paused, saying,"We''re all going to have supper in the Dairy, and of course you''ll be with us, Ken?"
25865Banks?"
25865But be you goin''her way?
25865But what''s the matter?
25865CHAPTER XIX ROSABEL"Rosabel who?"
25865CHAPTER XXII THE BAZAAR OF ALL NATIONS"How did you know where we were?"
25865Ca n''t we telephone to them?"
25865Ca n''t you play at dressin''up?"
25865Can I help you in any way?"
25865Can you send somebody after me in a carriage?
25865Come on over to the orchard, will you?"
25865Come on, girls, are you ready?"
25865Did you ever see such a brightness in your life?"
25865Do n''t we, Roger?"
25865Do you never get tired of parties and dancing, Patty?"
25865Do you remember the little bag, that always held everything that could possibly be required?"
25865Do you suppose we''ll have to stay here all night?"
25865Do you suppose,"she said, turning an indignant face to Mr. Phelps,"that anybody deliberately put this child here and deserted it?"
25865Do you want to borrow them too?"
25865Elise, do you suppose whoever keeps this little store would sell that plate?"
25865Farrington?"
25865For I do n''t suppose you intend to keep Miss Rosabel, do you?"
25865For gracious goodness''sake, Patty, what have you got there?"
25865Go and get her, wo n''t you?
25865Has your car been cutting up jinks?"
25865Has your cook left, or is the house on fire?"
25865Have you any punk?"
25865Have you had your luncheon?"
25865Have you no more respect for your elderly and antiquated Stepmamma than that?"
25865How did I know but that you''d buy pink or blue ones, and so spoil my whole gypsy costume?"
25865How do you do, Mrs. Farrington?
25865How do you do, Patty?
25865How do you like the prospect?"
25865How much is it, please?"
25865How old be you?"
25865I ca n''t seem to see any?"
25865I do n''t suppose it''s to be a monologue, is it?"
25865I thought ef I was a horse whar would I go?
25865I''ll be all right in a day or two, wo n''t I?
25865I''m so glad to see you, Elise; and this is Patty Fairfield?
25865I''m so sorry, for I do love hothouse peas, do n''t you?"
25865If I see any sort of a place where we can turn in for shelter, I think we''d better do it, do n''t you?"
25865Is it new?"
25865Is n''t it_ great?_""I do n''t like it as well as the sparkling, shiny things.
25865Is n''t this house great?
25865It will never occur to them that we''re over here, and why should it?"
25865May n''t I come often to see you?
25865Mother, will you get something ready for a feast?"
25865Now I''d like you to explain, sir, if you did n''t kidnap that child, what you do call it?"
25865Now what would you people rather do?"
25865Oh, Nan, may n''t I make it work, sometimes?"
25865Oh, Nan, wo n''t we be happy all here together?"
25865Oh, do have the party, will you?"
25865Oh, do you suppose your people will let you go?"
25865Oh, what shall I do?"
25865One morning at breakfast, her father said,"Patty, child, what is the matter with you?
25865Or shall we stop at some farmhouse, and so keep ourselves from starvation?"
25865Patty felt sorry for the old lady, who seemed in such a bewildered state, and she said,"No matter about the card, Mrs. Roland, what can I do for you?"
25865Patty rubbed her eyes and blinked, as Nan pulled the book away from her, and said,"Why, what time is it?"
25865Phelps?"
25865S''pose we say a week from to- day?"
25865She had an aversion to speaking her own name before her present hearers, so when Mr. Hepworth responded she merely said,"Do you know who I am?"
25865So Patty said,"What about the servants, Mrs. Roland?
25865So wo n''t you promise me a dance or two, when the time comes for that part of the programme?"
25865Some plan for to- night?"
25865Thank you ever so much, Roger, but why did n''t you put it on the tree for me?"
25865The driver of a passing hansom called out,"Cab, Miss?"
25865The judges awarded the prize to Roger, who calmly remarked to Patty, afterward,"I told you I''d get it, did n''t I?"
25865This is Patty Fairfield, is it?
25865Turning around to face the occupants of the motor- car he bawled out:"Whar do ye wanter go in Hartford?"
25865Want to go with me, Nan?"
25865What have you been doing?
25865What shall I do?"
25865What shall I wear, Nan?"
25865What shall we do with her, Papa?"
25865What time does Uncle Ted come home, Aunt Grace?"
25865Who are going?"
25865Who could it have been?
25865Who''s that you''ve got with you this time?
25865Why do you call it that?
25865Why do you do it, Patty?"
25865Will you come with me?"
25865Will you go, Patty?"
25865Will you have us?"
25865Will you promise me that?"
25865Will you, Patty?"
25865Will you?"
25865Wo n''t it be lots of fun?"
25865Wo n''t you have a quilting party while my friends are here?"
25865You were n''t up late last night?"
25865a room will get musty if it''s shut up, and what earthly good is a parlour except to keep shut up?"
25865asked Kenneth,"me?"
25865asked Patty,"are they outdoors, down by the brook?"
25865asked one of her girl friends;"shall you exchange any of your duplicate gifts?"
25865cried Patty, picking the little one up,"what are you doing here all alone?"
25865exclaimed Miss Aurora,"is that the best you can do, Bertha Warner?
25865exclaimed Mr. Farrington,"why, how are you, old man?
25865exclaimed Patty;"but can you paint silver?"
25865he cried,"you would n''t let a little thing like a tornado stop your progress, would you?
25865said Dick Phelps, in his straightforward way,"he''s mad at you, is n''t he?"
25865said Patty,"what for?"
25865she asked,"can I sell you anything to- day?"
46188''Now we can hold San Juan hill against them garlics; hey, son?'' 46188 ''You are Captain Evans?
46188A good or a bad one?
46188About what, my son?
46188Ah, and does not that cause you to rejoice that she loves, and is beloved by, a good and successful physician?
46188Ah, did n''t you almost wish you had granted my request to be allowed to go along with you?
46188Ah, is that so, daughter mine?
46188Allegiance to the King of England, papa?
46188And did n''t they hang those soldiers for doing it?
46188And did she, grandma?
46188And did they stay there, papa?
46188And did they, papa?
46188And had to go through it, grandma?
46188And liberty is worth that price, is n''t it, father?
46188And oh, wo n''t you tell us some more, grandma?
46188And that one on the pillars, papa-- whose is it?
46188And what may Chester and I be allowed to do?
46188And why not?
46188And wo n''t you let me help, as usual, with your correspondence?
46188And you are going with me to see to that throughout the voyage?
46188And you came in your yacht? 46188 And you consider that a healthful appetite, do you?"
46188And your yacht is here?
46188And, Uncle Harold, do n''t they need a doctor when they are nearly drowned?
46188Are n''t you, Ned?
46188Are we going to Machias now, papa?
46188Are you afraid of a scolding?
46188As purse- bearer?
46188Brother Max, could you help feeling a little bit afraid when your ship went into that long channel with its many forts and torpedoes?
46188But how did it happen? 46188 But shall I not send for a physician, as I fear neither of you is well enough to manage the case of the other?"
46188But shall we not go in now and retire to rest? 46188 But we are not such folks, are we, papa?"
46188But, Levis, do you think this will bring on war?
46188By fighting the Spaniards who abuse them so, papa?
46188Can you wait five minutes for me to get through here for the present? 46188 Chester, do you expect your brother and sisters to be here?"
46188Daniel Morgan who commanded at the battle of the Cowpens?
46188Did Captain Evans thank God for his victory, as Captain Philip did, uncle?
46188Did n''t some other things happen along this coast, grandma?
46188Did that mean that he would n''t do it even if he knew they would hang him if he refused?
46188Did the British harm the people in that town, papa?
46188Do n''t you think so, Eva?
46188Do n''t you think so, lads?
46188Do we remain here another day, captain?
46188Do you like Admiral Dewey, Brother Max?
46188Do you remember the story Lossing tells about a Norway pine somewhere in this region?
46188Do you think Max will like it?
46188Do you think of returning directly to Bar Harbor, captain?
46188Do you want me to go down now and see about that man?
46188Does n''t he say anything about it, papa?
46188Eva, have you heard from your uncle and aunt in reply to your note the other day?
46188Eva, will you kindly consent to take the first turn?
46188Grandma,asked Elsie,"did n''t Arnold go through Maine with an army to attack Canada about that time?"
46188Had a great many of her men been killed?
46188Had n''t they a very hard time going through that wilderness, grandma?
46188Had you a pleasant time last evening? 46188 Has he any of his own?"
46188Has there been any news from Manila?
46188Have n''t you another little story for us, grandma?
46188Have not you one for us, Harold?
46188Have you ever seen him, uncle?
46188He did a good deal more for his country before he turned traitor, did n''t he, grandma?
46188Hello, Raymond, have you heard the news?
46188Here is your amanuensis, and have n''t you something for her to do?
46188How is Grace this morning?
46188How many dresses did you have fitted?
46188How many killed?
46188I am glad indeed that they are not so silly, for what in the world could I do with so many lovers? 46188 I hope Max is well?"
46188I hope you have enjoyed your trip, and come back to me feeling well and strong?
46188I suppose I am not to choose by feeling, either, but just to take the first one I happen to touch?
46188I think we can do all that,said Max;"but how long do you expect to be absent, father?
46188In this State, grandma?
46188Is that your opinion of him?
46188Is the thing to be kept a secret?
46188Looking for the_ Dolphin_, mamma?
46188Maine was one of the thirteen colonies, was n''t she?
46188News? 46188 No; what is it?
46188Nothing bad, I hope, father?
46188Now you two have taken in a good deal of information; do n''t you think it might be well for you to take some exercise in running about the deck?
46188Now, Master Ned, do you call that a polite speech?
46188Oh, Cousin Ronald, did you do it all?
46188Oh, I remember something about what occurred there in the Revolution; but wo n''t you please tell us the story again?
46188Oh, can we run down and get aboard of her, mamma?
46188Oh, did n''t that make our fellows angry?
46188Oh, did n''t the people there care about the Revolution and help in it?
46188Oh, do tell me what sort of folks the Filipinos are?
46188Oh, does he? 46188 Oh, is it you, Chester?
46188Oh, tell me, are all our dear ones alive and well?
46188Oh, what was that, grandma?
46188Oh, what was that?
46188Our ships took all the Spanish ones, did n''t they?
46188Papa, do you think Max is in much danger there in Manila?
46188Papa, may I take an umbrella and just run down to the_ Dolphin_ for a few minutes to ask about it?
46188Papa, you''ll let them take him on board the yacht, wo n''t you?
46188Perhaps you have not heard of the new game with ears of corn? 46188 Perry''s victory, sir?
46188Shall we go together to make our selections?
46188That dear brave man that said,''Do n''t give up the ship,''papa?
46188That next grave is where Burrows lies, is n''t it, papa? 46188 That''s right, brother mine,"Herbert said, with a pleased smile;"I''d be very unwilling to go, leaving you here alone; and what would mother say?"
46188Then it was you, Cousin Ronald, was n''t it, now? 46188 There is a dark cloud in the east,"remarked Lucilla, in a regretful tone;"we are likely to have a rainy day, are we not, papa?"
46188They call Captain Evans''Fighting Bob,''do n''t they, uncle?
46188To the_ Dolphin_? 46188 Uncle Harold, do you know the captain they call''Fighting Bob''?"
46188Uncle Harold, you know all about it, for you''re a good doctor,said Ned, appealing to Dr. Travilla;"ought n''t little boys to have plenty to eat?"
46188Was it a long fight, grandma?
46188We are going now to Passamaquoddy Bay, are n''t we, papa?
46188We pass Machias on the way to Passamaquoddy Bay, do n''t we, father?
46188Well, Chester and Harold, what do you say?
46188Well, Purdy, what is it?
46188Well, suppose we try it with the understanding that if you get too fat you are to be reduced to your present suitable size by a low and spare diet?
46188Were the ships quite spoiled, grandma?
46188What ails these Spaniards?
46188What did they do for a commander after their captain was so dreadfully injured?
46188What have they been doing to them, papa?
46188What is it, my dear?
46188What''s that for, Rosie?
46188Where are we going now, Brother Max?
46188Where else but in your homes?
46188Why, dearest?
46188Why, mamma?
46188Why, that was just murder, was n''t it, grandma?
46188Will they ever come here again, papa?
46188Will you gratify them, mother?
46188Wo n''t it be fun? 46188 Yes,"said his father, with a smile,"and of course you remember the notable victory vouchsafed us by Providence five days later on Lake Erie?"
46188You are not vexed with me, papa, for staying up so late, just for once?
46188You can hardly ask your guests to eat raw corn, especially at this late hour? 46188 You stayed up to try your fortune, did you?"
46188You were talking of the war of 1812, were you, mother?
46188You will go too, Harold?
46188Your husband approves, I suppose?
46188And did you go to bed in season, as your father would have seen that you did had you been at home?"
46188And would it not be wise to give her to a physician, who will make her health his constant care?"
46188And you are willing, papa?"
46188And you will try it too, wo n''t you, Eva?"
46188Are they not sweet words, Elsie?"
46188Are we to lie still in the harbor here till you return?"
46188But I thought you and Lucilla were planning to have but one ceremony for the two couples of you?"
46188But do you think Grace suspects?"
46188But have you thought what a mixture of relationships such a marriage would make?
46188But where are we to go now, do you know?"
46188But where is Herbert?"
46188Ca n''t we help him, Grandma Elsie?
46188Can you make needed preparations in a few days?"
46188Captain, can you tell us why it is that the worldly- minded do not know Jesus?"
46188Chester''s brother Frank?"
46188Could n''t we coax your father to allow it?"
46188Do n''t you know that boys need to eat plenty, if they are to grow up into big, strong men?"
46188Do n''t you think, father, that joining together we could rule the world?"
46188Do n''t you, Chester?"
46188Have you forgotten that he is with Commodore Dewey on the coast of China?"
46188How are you?"
46188I hope you are not vexed with us?"
46188I suppose they had one?"
46188Is it not because the joy of the Lord is indeed your strength?"
46188Is n''t it good of them?"
46188Just then Lucilla''s voice was heard coming from the next room,"Is that you, Max?"
46188News from home?"
46188Papa, can you tell us about the funeral?
46188Said one of the Rough Riders:"Now that we''ve got those Dagoes corralled, why do n''t we brand them?"
46188Shall we do as I have proposed, or something different?"
46188She reflected a moment, then--"It ca n''t be Uncle Harold?"
46188That makes it much easier to bear, does n''t it, my dear?"
46188That''s your name, is n''t it?"
46188They paced silently back and forth for a few moments, then Lucilla asked,"How long are we going to lie quietly here in Portland harbor, papa?"
46188This is the_ Iowa_?''
46188Well, gentlemen, which of you will take his turn now?"
46188What but that sustained the martyrs when called upon to lay down their lives for the sake of Him who died to redeem them?
46188What is it-- war news?"
46188What was the cause?"
46188When they had finished,"Did you miss me last night and this morning, father?"
46188Why ca n''t we finish off the Dons, now we''ve got them going?"
46188Wo n''t you let your father into the secret of it?"
46188Would the captain ever consent to such a mixture of relationships?
46188Yet could it be?
46188You could spare that much more time from your home, could n''t you, Grandma Elsie?"
46188and are they really lovers, and engaged?"
46188and that he could come out with the assistance of my arm?"
46188and wo n''t you please read its inscription?"
46188asked Elsie;"and did any of them do it?"
46188but wo n''t you please tell about Revolutionary times and the war of 1812- 14?"
46188ca n''t you love me in that way, even just a little?"
46188can it be possible that this is you?"
46188do you see how earnestly Harold and Grace are talking together?
46188exclaimed Elsie;"I suppose they had to give up then?"
46188exclaimed Lucilla, in a tone of utter astonishment,"to whom?
46188exclaimed one of the gunners,"who wants any breakfast?
46188he exclaimed,"what''s that you are calling me?"
46188how can you?
46188said Elsie, in a tone of entreaty,"ca n''t you tell us something more about Captain Philip?
46188she whispered to her friend,"do you know-- have you heard the news?"
46188what was that?"
45908A French orphan,she gasped,"What for?"
45908A button, was n''t it?
45908A girl like this might attract his attention if he saw her behind the counter of a cigar store--"Does she work in a cigar store?
45908A sort of Uncle of Amy''s, did n''t you say, Ruth?
45908All? 45908 Amy Lassell, how dare you?"
45908And what is the very least you think you could take in place of having Myrtle go to work?
45908And why in the world do you want Sally?
45908Are you going, Priscilla? 45908 Arrives?"
45908Awfully clever, are n''t they?
45908But what must Miss-- Miss Zall think of me?
45908But what_ did_ she take?
45908But why?
45908Buy lace, lady? 45908 Ca n''t her aunt afford to give her an education?"
45908Ca n''t you make allowances, Priscilla, for a man crazed with love and jealousy?
45908Chocolate or coffee?
45908Dick, you have n''t met Mr. Carey, have you? 45908 Did he want to go, Ruth?"
45908Did n''t it ever occur to you that two wrongs did n''t make a right? 45908 Did n''t you telephone me this morning?"
45908Do n''t what, Priscilla?
45908Do n''t you hate to go away and leave all these lovely things, Graham?
45908Do you know what I''ve been thinking about all week?
45908Do you know what present she stole?
45908Do you mean that Mrs. Philander has been begging you to do this for the last five years, and that this is the first we''ve heard of it?
45908Do you mean that is all?
45908Do you mean,she said in a level voice,"that you do n''t believe me?"
45908Do you think I ought to encourage Nelson to go, Peggy?
45908Do you think she can like him?
45908Does she know?
45908Forty dollars a year?
45908Getting sleepy are n''t you, little boy?
45908Got pen and ink handy?
45908Had n''t you better put on the supper, my dear?
45908Have you addressed all that pile to- day?
45908Have you answered that letter from Oklahoma?
45908Have you waited dinner for me? 45908 Have you, dear?
45908Horace Hitchcock here? 45908 How about ice cream?"
45908How''s the faculty to know?
45908I have n''t met you before, have I?
45908I suppose she could open the door for a caller, could n''t she?
45908I''m afraid you need some of those artificial ear- drums, Priscilla-- Why, what''s happened?
45908I''m not too early, am I?
45908I-- I-- what are you talking about Graham?
45908I?
45908If you had a little help, Miss Burns, I suppose you could manage, could n''t you? 45908 In love-- why, what, do you mean?"
45908Is Horace coming up to- night?
45908Is Miss Combs in?
45908Is he nice looking?
45908Is she his mother''s sister or his father''s?
45908Is that so, Ruth?
45908Is this place called Friendly Terrace?
45908Is-- do you think it is all right for girls to go there alone in the evening?
45908Isabel?
45908Know what day it is?
45908May I come in for a little while, Ruth?
45908Miss Priscilla,said Horace suddenly,"are you at all interested in Field Day?"
45908Nelson''s late, is n''t he?
45908Nelson, you do n''t mean you want to take that offer? 45908 Not to speak to me for a week?
45908O, did Isabel come from Chicago?
45908O, do n''t you think that is too much?
45908Oh, Priscilla,Horace was murmuring,"Do you not feel as I do, that we have met and loved before?
45908Oh, ca n''t we get away?
45908Oh, is it really time to start?
45908Oh, what is the matter?
45908Ought I to dress up, do you think, as long as I''m expecting a call?
45908Peggy Raymond, what on earth are you talking about?
45908Peggy Raymond, where have you been and what have you been doing? 45908 Peggy not a help?
45908Peggy, what was that woman saying to you?
45908Peggy, where''s the latch key to your front door?
45908Please tell me what you mean by his drawing the line?
45908Priscilla, do you realize that to- morrow is Commencement Day? 45908 Priscilla-- are you in love with him?"
45908Ruth, what was the matter with Nelson last evening? 45908 Sally?"
45908Shall you be glad when school opens, Myrtle?
45908Take dinner? 45908 The front door?"
45908Then why did you blush that way?
45908Think you could stand it?
45908Third?
45908Wanted to buy you out, did n''t he?
45908Well, Amy, I''ve no doubt that Nelson is a very fine fellow, as far as morals go, but his social position, you know--"What about it?
45908Well, is that such a tragedy?
45908Well?
45908What I do n''t understand,said Priscilla,"is if Mary was so lonely, why did n''t she call us up?"
45908What about her?
45908What are they for?
45908What did you say?
45908What do you mean by that?
45908What do you say, Peggy? 45908 What do you want me to do with it?"
45908What do you want me to do, Peggy?
45908What for?
45908What happened to detain Isabel?
45908What has all this to do with strawberries?
45908What was that?
45908What''s become of Peggy? 45908 What''s that, Miss Peggy?"
45908What''s the idea?
45908What''s the joke?
45908What''s the matter? 45908 What''s the matter?
45908What''s the matter?
45908What''s the use?
45908What''s this?
45908What''s your idea in that? 45908 What?
45908When-- when do they want you to go?
45908Who are the Careys? 45908 Who did you say it was?
45908Who is the caller?
45908Who is?
45908Who''s Hitchcock?
45908Why are n''t you going with the others?
45908Why not?
45908Why, Nelson,she cried,"What are you talking about?
45908Why, Peggy, what do you mean?
45908Why, is anything the matter?
45908Why, what do you mean?
45908Why, when was the second?
45908Why, where''s Nelson?
45908Why,Hildegarde almost screamed,"did n''t you ask us here to- night to meet her?"
45908Will you now? 45908 Will you promise not to be angry if I tell you something?"
45908Wo n''t it cost a great deal to adopt an orphan?
45908Wo n''t you let me be your escort?
45908Would n''t you like something hot to drink?
45908Would you rather work than go to school?
45908Yes-- Margaret?
45908You do n''t expect him, do you?
45908You do n''t mean he''s married?
45908You do n''t mean you''ve got the door open?
45908You girls call yourselves college women, do n''t you? 45908 You want to see Miss Peggy?"
45908You would n''t think of it, would you, Ruth, going out to that rough cattle country, a girl like you?
45908You''re coming out to help me, are n''t you, Amy?
45908You''ve got a nice- looking maid? 45908 Your friend Hitchcock is n''t here to- night, is he?"
45908And then if the article were something she really wanted, she would add,"Is n''t it lucky, Graham, that some one thought of that?
45908Are you coming up to- night, Nelson?"
45908As it was, he leaned close and said in her ear,"Who is that fellow?"
45908But I''ve got an idea-- Don''t you know that the impression a thing makes on you depends a lot on the background?"
45908But if I let myself think of that, I''ll spoil this, do n''t you see?
45908But nobody passed me, and then when she got to the old toll- gate--"Mr. Raymond interrupted,"You do n''t mean you followed her to the toll gate?"
45908But why the French orphan?"
45908CONTENTS CHAPTER PAGE I WHAT''S IN A NAME?
45908Could it be that, as the second of July drew near, Peggy had found herself unable to face the situation?
45908Did she ever say she had met me?"
45908Did you ever see an exhibition of cubist pictures?"
45908Do n''t you like your dessert, Peggy?
45908Do n''t you love outdoors when it''s still and cold like this?"
45908Do n''t you remember how scared we were, and how in awe of the Seniors?
45908Do n''t you think it would be rather over- doing it to call twice in one day?"
45908Do n''t you understand that we''ve been frightened to death about you?"
45908Duncan?"
45908For while they were talking of something entirely different, Peggy suddenly exclaimed,"Do you suppose it was the uniform that dazzled them?"
45908Fox?"
45908Frost, you mean?"
45908Have you any brothers?"
45908He suggested that I would enjoy taking him to-- what''s the name of the place?
45908How is she?"
45908How many nights this week have we been to a movie?"
45908I suppose you know you''re a very striking type, do n''t you?"
45908I''d adore to come, Peggy, but would it put you out if I brought my friend Virginia Dunbar?
45908If Horace comes, bring him over and I''ll try to get Peggy and Ruth--""Shall you ask Nelson Hallowell?"
45908If Peggy cried"Is n''t that beautiful?"
45908If six months was a long time, what of two years?
45908Is he flesh and blood, and responsible for the marauding thefts in the neighborhood?
45908Is he responsible for Prince Kassim''s murder?
45908Is he the ghost of the ancestral portrait, that hangs in Sir Robert Grainger''s strange library?
45908Is n''t it the queerest thing,"she added,"what Priscilla can see in him?"
45908Is n''t that it, Priscilla?"
45908It was Hildegarde who exclaimed,"Do n''t you wish you knew who he was?"
45908Meanwhile Peggy, tilting her head on one side like an inquisitive canary, was asking Graham,"What is it we are going to celebrate?"
45908Oh, Priscilla, not really?"
45908On each occasion Peggy started convulsively, but somehow or other choked back the cry that rose to her lips,"Oh, what is it?
45908Or is it only coincidence that one of the guests at the masked ball happened to wear the costume of the Red Cavalier?
45908Peggy, do you realize what it would have meant if we had let that poem of Ida''s go in?
45908Priscilla asked,"Or is she stingy?"
45908Shall we go?"
45908They were not the sort of girls who follow the crowd unthinkingly, nor had any of them contracted the fatal habit of asking,"What can one do?"
45908What am I going to do?"
45908What do you say?"
45908What do you think of a trip to the country along about Wednesday?"
45908What do you think of her asking the Bonds?"
45908What do you think, daughter, of having parents old enough to have been married twenty- five years?"
45908What does Nelson think?"
45908What had become of Peggy?
45908What happened?"
45908What he meant to say does not matter, since the discovery that Amy was in tears resulted in the inquiry,"What are you crying for, hey?"
45908What is the matter?"
45908What is the very least you could get along on and let Myrtle stay in school?"
45908What is there in that to turn you all colors of the rainbow?
45908What was Peggy thinking of?
45908What''s the damage?"
45908Where?
45908Which of them is the Red Cavalier?
45908Who had ever heard of four lively girls maintaining an unbroken silence for a week?
45908Who is he, anyway?"
45908Who is the mysterious Red Cavalier?
45908Who''s taking you?"
45908Why not?"
45908Why should I be angry?"
45908Will you take him upstairs Ruth?
45908Wo n''t you and Dick come along, Miss Coffin?"
45908Wo n''t you have some ice- cream?"
45908Wo n''t you marry me, Peggy, and go along?
45908You would n''t really like to go to Oklahoma, would you?
45908You''re going to leave school?"
45908You''re the Miss Potts who takes care of Mary Donaldson, are n''t you?"
45908was the the result of) Page 199,"upstair"changed to"upstairs"( upstairs Ruth?
15798''And what did she think of him?'' 15798 And did you ever hear such magnificent thunder?"
15798And how do you like North Cheyenne? 15798 And-- what?"
15798Are n''t you sorry you are not going to stay and have a nice time with us all, and help eat up the rest of the cake?
15798Are the summers so dry?
15798Are you going, dear?
15798Are you sure your head does n''t ache? 15798 At last she said something about Comte Ernest de Conflans,--I had heard of him, perhaps?
15798But how can I choose? 15798 But suppose she says''No''?"
15798But what_ does_ it mean?
15798But what_ has_ made the place grow so fast?
15798But you do n''t mean New York and Boston when you say''one- horse little place,''surely?
15798Dear me, is that her name?
15798Did Geoff say that?
15798Do n''t I?
15798Do n''t they look exactly like Cousin Helen?
15798Do n''t you see? 15798 Do you believe he meant it?"
15798Do you know what rent she asks for the house?
15798Do you mean that you really want to stay a week under this rock with nothing to eat?
15798Do you really go so soon?
15798Do you recollect that beautiful white crape shawl of mamma''s which papa gave me two years ago? 15798 Do you think they really would n''t mind being tidied up a little?
15798Does Dr. Hope tell you anything about the place?
15798Does she look like you?
15798Does this chimney draw?
15798Has n''t he?
15798Has your old lady left something after all?
15798Have you a partner?
15798Have you decided, then?
15798Have you thought what it shall be?
15798Have you, indeed?
15798Having an offer? 15798 High Valley?
15798Home?
15798How can I?
15798How did it happen? 15798 How far away is your ranch?"
15798How long have you known him? 15798 I beg your pardon,"he said;"but are n''t you-- isn''t it-- Clover Carr?"
15798I say, have_ you_ been here all the evening?
15798I suppose_ your_ rooms are front ones?
15798I wonder why it is that I mind it so much?
15798If it were a lady,--yourself, for instance,--could it be made anyway tolerable, do you think? 15798 Is he nice?"
15798Is it much of a walk?
15798Is it you; is it really you?
15798Is it? 15798 Is n''t it delightful to have a friend right off who knows papa, and does things for us because we are papa''s children?
15798Is n''t it wonderful? 15798 Is n''t it?"
15798Is n''t that rather depressing?
15798Is papa crying, do you suppose?
15798Is that good- by to Cheyenne?
15798It would be very nice indeed,doubtfully;"but who could we get to go with us?"
15798May I cut the string, Katy?
15798May we, Clarence? 15798 Not a letter from your mother?"
15798Oh, Rose,--oh, Rose,cried Clover, in fits of laughter,"did you really tell her that?"
15798Oh, did you want the key?
15798Oh, is it Miss Carr?
15798Oh, what are they?
15798Oh, why did you?
15798Really; so soon as that?
15798Saturday? 15798 Sha''n''t you have a floral bell, or a bower to stand in, or something of that kind?"
15798Shall you?
15798Speaking of young men,went on Clover,"what do you suppose has become of Clarence Page?
15798The Shoshone House? 15798 The key?"
15798Then, Geoff-- if you feel like that-- if you''re quite sure you feel like that, I think--"What do you think, dearest?
15798This is n''t half- bad, is it?
15798Three is a good many at a time, though, is n''t it?
15798Three what?
15798Was I? 15798 Well, Katy dear, what next?
15798Were you? 15798 What do you know about old maids, midget?"
15798What do you mean?
15798What do you think?
15798What is a''round- up''and who is''us''?
15798What is the matter, Miss Clover?
15798What is the other thing you have set your heart on? 15798 What on earth did they send that old thing with you for?"
15798What sort of bad news?
15798What would?
15798What''s going to happen on Thursday?
15798What?
15798What?
15798When are you coming back from the Marshall Pass?
15798When are you coming back?
15798Where is the valley?
15798Who shall decide when doctors disagree?
15798Who''s that fellow anyway?
15798Whom do you think this letter is from, girls? 15798 Why not?
15798Why, Phil, what made you say that?
15798Wo n''t you want your letters?
15798Would n''t it be inexcusable selfishness in a man to ask such a thing?
15798You look awfully pretty, do you know?
15798You''ll dine with us, of course?
15798You''ve forgotten me?
15798_ Will_ you hear her talk?
15798And papa and the children, and the lonely and far- away feelings?
15798And what did they say?
15798And what is that about flies?
15798But the moment she got Katy to herself, she burst out with,--"My dear, what_ am_ I going to do?
15798But then why did she look so black when she asked where we were going, and I said to your wedding?
15798But when did you come, and where are you?"
15798But you''re not angry with me, are you, dear?
15798Ca n''t you come?
15798Can you tell?
15798Clover,"he went on, for, puzzled at his tone, she made no answer,"could n''t you like me a little?"
15798Could n''t you, Clover?"
15798Could you ever love me well enough for that, do you think?"
15798Dear Clovy,"coaxingly,"could n''t you?
15798Did Mr. Beloit send you?"
15798Did you see the thing that Polly sent this morning?"
15798Did you think I would get''mawwied''without you?
15798Did you write it yourself, Roslein?"
15798Do n''t you recollect how I used to tell you about him at Ashburn?"
15798Do n''t you recollect my telling you about him?"
15798Do n''t you remember his saying that the cattle got very wild, and they had to ride after them?
15798Do n''t you remember, Phil, how hard Katy and I worked last summer to keep the geraniums and fuschias alive in that long drought?
15798Do n''t you think it would really be nicer in that way?"
15798Do n''t you think so?"
15798Do n''t you think that travelling is the most delightful thing in the world, Miss Clover?"
15798Do n''t you want to come and help?"
15798Do you consider it all pure kindness?
15798Do you know when she wants to start?"
15798Do you remember?"
15798Do you suppose I do n''t know how you have to look out for her and do everything?
15798Do you suppose she is never sorry for herself?
15798Do you suppose there is any chance?"
15798Does n''t it seem too sweet?
15798Does she always behave that way when the aristocracy is lightly spoken of?"
15798From the East?
15798Have you just come?
15798Have you really taken this funny little house, as Phil tells us?"
15798Have you seen anything of mother and Lilly since they got back from Europe, Clover?"
15798Helen''s?"
15798Hope?"
15798How can I take care of her?
15798How can you be so absurd, Clarence?"
15798How could she do it?
15798How could you?
15798How do we know what this Mrs. Watson is like?
15798How do you like them?"
15798How is he, by the way?"
15798How were poor Clover and Phil to transport such a weight of things?
15798How would it be if I asked Mrs. Hope?
15798I can afford to marry now; wo n''t you stay in Colorado and be my wife?"
15798I met both Ellen Gray and Esther Dearborn the other day, and where do you think it was?
15798I never hankered in the least for Sylvester Slack, did you, Katy?"
15798I see that Dr. Hope drives carefully, but yet-- You do n''t think we shall meet anything of the kind to- day, do you, Doctor?"
15798I shall sit here with you all the time; and is n''t it lovely that we have those enchanting mountains just before our eyes?
15798I suppose your principles do n''t preclude a wedding- cake?"
15798I''m very fond of you, just as I am of the boys; but--""But what?
15798If he would drive you out, and Mrs. Hope would stay on, would you come for a week?
15798Is he here too?"
15798Is it Mr. Beloit who has the letting of the house?"
15798Is n''t it an exquisite place?"
15798Is n''t it nice?"
15798Is n''t it scrumptious, Geoff?
15798Is that the name of your place?"
15798Is there any reason in particular?"
15798Is you mawwied yet?"
15798It was evident that something must be done, and speedily-- but what?
15798It will be nice to go out and see Clarence''s, if we can get some lady to go with us, wo n''t it?"
15798It''s some natural law, I presume,--gravitation or levitation, which is it?"
15798Mamma, when shall I be old enough to have a house all of my own?"
15798May I say it to you?"
15798May we play that it is our house, and do what we like, and change about and arrange things?
15798Miss Carr--""Oh, please, wo n''t you call me Clover?"
15798Now did you ever hear of anything quite so dear as that, for a baby only three years and five months old?
15798Now the green hat she had winter before last was-- Don''t you think those mountains are dreadfully bright and distinct?
15798Now, girls, what was there in that to make her angry?
15798Now, which shall it be?
15798Oh, what''s that coming now?
15798Oh, why did Mrs. Hall interfere?
15798Rosebud, who am I, do you think?"
15798There was that one at the Pension Suisse; you remember, Tanta?
15798Though we''re pretty good housekeepers too, considering; do n''t you think so?"
15798Was your letter from Miss Inches, John?"
15798Watson?"
15798Watson?"
15798We did n''t look much like it, did we,--you in your big chair and I on my sofa?
15798We will be good friends always, sha''n''t we?"
15798We''ll go over and see them as soon as we can, wo n''t we, Clover?"
15798What business has he to be bringing you roses, and making up parties to take you off on private cars?"
15798What did she do?"
15798What do you think of that at thirty miles an hour?
15798What had she undertaken to do?
15798What have you been talking about all the evening?"
15798What made him say it?"
15798What on earth did you go there for?"
15798What sort of a gown are_ you_ going to have, by the way?
15798What was it?"
15798What was that?
15798What would become of us if it did?"
15798What_ are_ we going to do without her and Katy?"
15798What_ are_ you laughing at?"
15798What_ will_ Ellen say?
15798What_ would_ they all say when they knew?
15798When do you suppose we shall hear?
15798When the clergyman said,"Mary, wilt thou take this man to be thy wedded husband?"
15798Where are you stopping?
15798Where did that vase come from, Clover?
15798Where is that?"
15798Which day may I come?"
15798Who can this be from, I wonder?"
15798Who does not know the delightfulness of that first sitting out of doors after a long winter''s confinement?
15798Who is that from, Katy?
15798Who wants to come next to them?
15798Why did you, Katy?"
15798Why should n''t I?
15798Will you, dear Mrs. Hope, and be our matron?
15798Would n''t it be too enchanting?
15798You knew that she was married, did n''t you?"
15798You like him, do n''t you, Phil; and do n''t you like your room?"
15798You liked the High Valley, did n''t you?
15798You mean to have a wedding- dress, do n''t you?"
15798You said he was English, did n''t you?"
15798You''ll lie quiet and rest till dinner, wo n''t you?"
15798You''re sure you must go?
15798asked the practical Clover;"and does the kitchen stove bake well?"
15798cried Clover, who had not listened to a word of this conversation;"did you ever see anything so lovely?"
15798do n''t you think Car Forty- seven is nice,--the one we are going out West in, you know?
15798is he ill?"
15798replied Clover, surprised;"of this house, do you mean?"
15798said the insatiable Clover,"is that the very last?
15798she said again;"what could you do for him, Clarence?"
15798what has that gentleman gone off for in such a hurry?"
15798where are you?
46540About how much do you suppose that means?
46540Acquaintances of mine, you think, lassie?
46540Ah, do you see? 46540 Ah, is that so?
46540Ah, what father would, if he had such a dear little girl and boy as mine?
46540Ah, what is that?
46540Am I the angel, and may I fly in?
46540And did all that happen at the siege of Jerusalem?
46540And do you wish to visit it-- or a part of it?
46540And does England own it yet, grandma?
46540And how is it with Max and Eva?
46540And how soon did he begin his piracy, papa?
46540And is n''t it a very important part trying to win souls to Christ?
46540And is the baleen all they kill the whales for, papa?
46540And it has a warm climate, has n''t it, grandma?
46540And oh, mamma, do n''t you think that he and Uncle Harold will soon get dear Neddie well of his dreadful dip in the sea?
46540And perhaps you may treat Cuba in the same way?
46540And so I''m not a real person?
46540And we are on the coast of Brazil now?
46540And what father would n''t be ready and glad to bestow it upon such a daughter as mine?
46540And when will that be, Cousin Ronald?
46540And you can take a cup of coffee and a little fruit, ca n''t you, father?
46540And you would n''t miss that for something, would you?
46540And you, Evelyn?
46540And you, mother?
46540And, after all, the ventriloquism was really all you wanted me for, eh?
46540Any of us but papa?
46540Are n''t we, papa?
46540Are the fish handsome, too, grandpa?
46540Are the rest of us invited, Gracie?
46540Are there a good many wild flowers in Cuba, papa?
46540Are there any rivers, grandma?
46540Are there any towns?
46540Are there fruits and flowers in those forests, papa?
46540Are there many kinds, papa?
46540Are there mountains, grandma?
46540Are there not many and important exports sent down the Amazon?
46540Are there towns on it, grandma?
46540Are they big islands, grandma? 46540 Are we going to stop at any of these South American countries, papa?"
46540Are we likely to land there?
46540Are you going to take us to Cuba, too, papa?
46540Are you quite sure of all that, daughter?
46540Are you talking about Elsie''s Tiny, papa?
46540Are you?
46540Blow hole,repeated Ned, wonderingly;"what''s that, papa?"
46540Brazil''s a big country, is n''t it, papa?
46540But could n''t we let the supper wait till the whale comes up and gets done spouting?
46540But have n''t we had a good time in all our journeying about old ocean and her islands?
46540But how are we going to keep Christmas here on the yacht?
46540But how can they tell where it goes when it mixes in with other waters, papa?
46540But now as we have finished eating and drinking shall we not take our stroll about the grounds?
46540But what kind of people live there, grandma?
46540But where are we going?
46540But where does it run to, papa?
46540But, papa, where does it get so much water to pour out?
46540Ca n''t they go, father and Mamma Vi?
46540Could n''t you make use of the telephone now, to give your invitations, my dear?
46540Cousin Ronald, wo n''t you please make him talk a little more?
46540Dear me, papa, how can anybody live there?
46540Did Columbus discover it, and the Spaniards settle it, papa?
46540Did he own that he was guilty, papa?
46540Did it pay?
46540Did the folks give you plenty to eat, Tee- tee?
46540Do n''t they have some difficulty in finding it, father?
46540Do n''t you think it would be pleasanter to visit it after it has had time to recover from the war?
46540Do they live in flocks in their own forests, papa?
46540Do they usually go alone, papa?
46540Do you forget that I told you they would run up the trees? 46540 Do you hear that?
46540Do you mean throw the water up out of its nostrils, papa?
46540Do you really think so, cousin doctor?
46540Do you think of giving him to any one of them?
46540Do you think of visiting any part of the island, Captain?
46540Do you think we will have as good a time where we are going now?
46540Does n''t he ride well?
46540Elsie and Ned would n''t you like your grandma to tell you something about the islands we are going to?
46540Every one of them, papa?
46540Father,said Lucilla,"are we not nearing the Caribbean Sea?"
46540Father,said Lulu,"you will let me be your amanuensis again, will you not?"
46540For what purpose did you two children take papa down below? 46540 Give my little pet Tiny away?
46540Gold is to be found in Brazil, is it not, papa?
46540Grace, do you think the spies were truthful?
46540Had not the earlier prophets foretold the destruction of Jerusalem?
46540Had they any right to, grandma?
46540Have they railroads and telegraphs, papa?
46540Have those times been fulfilled yet?
46540Have you any money?
46540Have you wanted us sometimes when you were far away on the sea, Brother Max?
46540Having completed the circuit of Cuba, where do we go next, Captain?
46540Hello, what is it?
46540How are Max and Eva this morning?
46540How does Cousin Ronald help him?
46540How early would you like to have it?
46540How is it with you, Cousins Annis and Ronald?
46540How is the little lad, sir?
46540How large is it, grandma?
46540How long will it take us to get to Viamede, papa?
46540How soon, father, do you think of starting on your southward trip?
46540How would you like to be carried off to a strange place, away from papa and mamma?
46540I hope you think you are having a good time here on this yacht?
46540I like this place, Tiny, do n''t you?
46540I suppose you two have not forgotten that to- morrow will be Sunday and the next day Christmas?
46540I suppose you would hardly blame them for following your example?
46540I think I have read,said Evelyn,"that Columbus at first thought Cuba not an island but a part of the mainland?"
46540I think you are worthy of an increase of pay, Mr. Clark, and you wo n''t object to it, I suppose?
46540Is he good to eat, grandpa?
46540Is it a very hot place, papa?
46540Is it really good to eat, papa?
46540Is n''t it the ant that clips and carries away leaves?
46540Is she a very big island, papa?
46540Is that all you want me for, Neddie boy?
46540Is there anything I can do to help with your preparations, Mamma Vi?
46540Is there much of it in one whale, papa?
46540It will be a long journey before we get to Viamede, wo n''t it, mamma?
46540Lu, dear, can you give me an early breakfast to- morrow morning?
46540Many other bugs, too, I suppose?
46540Mosquitoes, for instance?
46540Not so very much, papa-- only-- she belongs to England, does n''t she, papa?
46540Now, father, you are going to take us to Santiago next, are you not?
46540Now, mother, shall I give my invitation in the same way to our own friends?
46540Oh mamma, do you think they would do that?
46540Oh, Brother Max, it was you, was n''t it?
46540Oh, Max, my husband, my dear, dear husband,she sobbed,"how can I live away from you?
46540Oh, Uncle Harold, you''ll take Sister Eva to a good place to see everything from, wo nt you?
46540Oh, do they like to live right in among the icebergs, papa?
46540Oh, do you think he can learn, papa?
46540Oh, is my tee- tee drowned?
46540Oh, papa, are we really going there?
46540Oh, was I? 46540 Oh,"cried Lucilla,"it is a secret then, is it?
46540Oh? 46540 Orders, my son?"
46540Our whale fishing is done mostly by the New Englanders, is n''t it, papa?
46540Papa, I know there used to be pirates in the West Indies; was it there that Kidd committed his crimes?
46540Papa, are monkeys mischievous?
46540Papa, did all those people lose their souls?
46540Papa, did that old king live long enough to see how very cruel the Spaniards were to his people?
46540Papa, that Captain Capron was n''t instantly killed by that Mauser bullet, was he?
46540Papa, were they-- the Indians-- heathen?
46540Papa, why do they call it by that name-- Caribbean Sea?
46540Papa, wo n''t you buy me one?
46540Papa,asked Ned,"are there lions and tigers and monkeys in the woods?"
46540Perhaps papa will bring us a second time after that?
46540Please, papa, tell us something about Cuba now, wo n''t you?
46540Quite true, Harold,he said,"but who is to be the happy recipient of mother''s bounty this time?"
46540Shall I ring and call for you?
46540Shall I send you in the carriage?
46540Shall we find a good harbor for our''Dolphin,''father?
46540Shall we go up the Orinoco?
46540Slaves, grandma?
46540Spanish colors? 46540 That was you, grandma, was n''t it?"
46540The Gulf Stream is very important, is n''t it, papa?
46540The Romans?
46540The Stream is very broad, is n''t it, papa?
46540The carriage is coming, Lu,said Eva;"are you ready for a drive?
46540The sea fight?
46540The whales are so big and strong; do n''t they ever fight back when men try to kill them, papa?
46540Then, papa, does n''t it seem as if we ought to be busied with religious duties all the time?
46540There were other charges, were there not, Captain?
46540They belong to England, do n''t they, grandma?
46540They have earthquakes there sometimes, have they not, father?
46540They have some very large and busy ants in this country, have n''t they, father?
46540This is one of the occasions for the wearing of the wedding- gown, is it not?
46540To what genus does he belong, Captain?
46540Trinidad is a warm place, is n''t it, grandma?
46540Was n''t it, papa?
46540Well, dear child, what is it?
46540Well, dears, we have had a very good time at Bermuda, have n''t we?
46540Well, little master, did n''t you make a mistake, too?
46540Whalebone or baleen is black, is n''t it, papa?
46540What about little master?
46540What are the names of some of them, grandma? 46540 What do monkeys eat, papa?"
46540What do you say, Grandma Dinsmore?
46540What is it, papa? 46540 What is to be the subject of to- morrow''s lesson, Captain?"
46540What mischief did it do, grandma?
46540What was?
46540What would you say as to visiting Viamede?
46540What''s that, uncle?
46540Where are Vi, Grace and the children?
46540Where do you suppose Max is now, father?
46540Who is making you talk, I wonder?
46540Why do you want me to talk so much, little mistress?
46540Why is this kind of whale called bottlenosed, papa?
46540Why should n''t Elsie go too? 46540 Why should they wish they had died in the land of Egypt, or in the wilderness?
46540Will this be your first visit to Porto Rico, Captain?
46540Will we go back to Trinidad?
46540Wo nt you sit down with us? 46540 Would you like to be?"
46540Yes, but we are having a very good time here on the''Dolphin,''are n''t we, Elsie?
46540Yes, papa,she laughed,"who would n''t be an early bird to get such a token of love from such a father as mine?"
46540Yes, sir; Grandpa Travilla would have been his-- papa''s-- father- in- law if he had lived, would n''t he?
46540Yes,seemed to come from another voice,"would n''t I like to git in thar and help myself?
46540You and uncle, of course, expect to be at Woodburn to- night, Aunt Elsie?
46540You are not weary of life on shipboard, daughter?
46540You are not wearying of it, I hope, my dear?
46540You are taking us home now, I suppose, father?
46540You do n''t want to be surprised by the pretty things you will see there, eh?
46540You have been there, have n''t you, grandma?
46540You have enjoyed your trip thus far, daughter, have you not?
46540You know something about it, I suppose?
46540You will come, wo n''t you?
46540You will not mind seeing me in it for the second time, will you?
46540You would n''t like to miss that?
46540Your leave of absence has nearly expired?
46540And Paul and Silas, when asked by the jailor,''Sirs, what must I do to be saved?''
46540And how long will it be ere they believe me, for all the signs which I have showed among them?
46540And it comes out of the whale''s mouth, does it, papa?"
46540And shall we not take a little stroll about your grounds when we leave the breakfast- room?"
46540And the Lord said unto Moses,''How long will this people provoke me?
46540And what effect had their report upon the people, Cousin Violet?"
46540And wherefore hath the Lord brought us unto this land, to fall by the sword, that our wives and our children should be a prey?
46540But what do you know about Jamaica, the island we are bound for?"
46540Chester, what did Moses say in reply?"
46540Did you not notice the almost infantile innocence in the expression of their countenances?"
46540Do n''t you think so?"
46540Do n''t you, Cousin Ronald?"
46540Do n''t you?"
46540Do n''t you?"
46540Do you care very much about them, Tee- tee?"
46540Do you know, Neddie, what Eshcol means?"
46540Do you like to be with us on this nice big yacht?"
46540Do you think it-- his coming-- is very near?"
46540Does it not?"
46540Eager, excited remarks and queries now followed in rapid succession from the others present--"When was the start to be made?
46540Gracie wo n''t you ride him home?
46540Have you something to show us?"
46540Here in the first chapter of Acts we read that the disciples asked,''Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
46540How could she bear it?
46540How could they depart out of the city while it was compassed with armies?"
46540How much have you?"
46540I do n''t know any lovelier or more delightful place to go to; do you, papa?"
46540I presume you would all like to see that city?"
46540Is it a fertile island, papa?
46540Is n''t it delightful to begin our married life in so lovely a home of our very own?"
46540Is there any way for us to get gifts for all these dear folks on the yacht with us, or for any of them, papa?"
46540Is there much to attract us there?
46540Ned laughed, saying,"So you think, do you?"
46540Papa, where are we going now?
46540Papa, wo n''t you tell us something about the Amazon?"
46540Shall I read it?"
46540Shall I tell you about it?"
46540Shall my brother Tee- tee have a good time with me, too?"
46540Then, catching sight of his little girl as he gained the deck, and seeing that she was crying bitterly,"Elsie daughter, what is it?"
46540To interest and instruct?
46540Uncle Harold, you came pretty near having a share in the Santiago one, did n''t you?"
46540We are bound for Porto Rico now, are we not?"
46540Were it not better for us to return into Egypt?''
46540What are they, grandpa?"
46540What has happened to them?"
46540What shall we do?
46540Who besides Grandma Elsie and the Captain were to compose the party?"
46540Who shall say that you wo n''t change your mind after a few weeks spent in Brazil?"
46540Why not stay here with us?"
46540Will they ever come back?"
46540Will we get there to- day?"
46540Wo nt you come in and eat with me?"
46540Wo nt you go with us, Grace?
46540Would you like me to tell you about some of the more interesting ones?"
46540Would you like me to tell you something of its beauties and its history?"
46540and are there many of them?"
46540and have you decided where you wish to go?"
46540and which set will you join, little wife?"
46540and will you remember?"
46540asked Ned;"were there houses destroyed and people killed?"
46540how is he-- my darling little son?"
46540or was it he who took you?"
46540who wants to be paid for saving that cute little chap from drowning?"
5604--by this Respondent?
5604A moment only; but was it not enough?
5604About Mrs George?
5604After what you ve just done?
5604Alfred: how long more are you going to stand there and countenance this lunacy?
5604Alice, where is Soames?
5604Alice: will you come upstairs?
5604Am I not to use my reason to find out why?
5604Am I to understand that if Cecil commits a mur- der, or forges, or steals, or becomes an atheist, I ca nt get divorced from him?
5604Am I to understand that the whole case was one of collusion?
5604Am I your uncle?
5604An inch or a mile: what does it matter?
5604And I put it to you as one man to another: did you ever hear such crazy nonsense?
5604And nothing to hope?
5604And pray, sir, on what ground do you dare allege that Major Billiter is not a gentleman?
5604And what do you see there, at the back of Godspeed?
5604And what is a woman to live on, pray, when she is no longer liked, as you call it?
5604And you believe that many of our landed estates were stolen from the Church by Henry the eighth?
5604And you, Lesbia?
5604Any amendment?
5604Any seconder?
5604Anything else, Miss Grantham?
5604Anything else?
5604Anything you would like mentioned about Miss Lesbia, maam?
5604Are not the best beloved always the good actors rather than the true sufferers?
5604Are you ashamed of it?
5604Are you ill, Mrs Collins?
5604Are you in your senses?
5604Are you now speaking as a saint, Father Anthony, or as a solicitor?
5604Are you sure that any of us, young or old, like the real thing as well as we like an artistic imitation of it?
5604Are you sure you have any adequate idea of what the truth about a military man really is?
5604Are you sure you ll enjoy it as much when you are the husband?
5604Are you the sexton?
5604Are you throwing me over?
5604Are you, Miss Bridgenorth?
5604Because it frightens people into behaving themselves before you; and then how can you tell what they really are?
5604Before going to the church, we went to the office of that insurance company-- whats its name, Cecil?
5604Besides, do you suppose I think, at my time of life, that the difference between one decent sort of man and another is worth bothering about?
5604Besides, what does Miss Grantham know about either men or women?
5604But Cecil''s objection to go through with it was so entirely on public grounds-- EDITH[ with quick suspicion] His objection?
5604But did he always take her back?
5604But do you mean that she did this more than once?
5604But do you think I do nt know?
5604But how am I to know the lady?
5604But how could the world go on, Anthony?
5604But the bridesmaids?
5604But we''re all our own and one another''s equals, arnt we?
5604But where is he to go, miss?
5604But would you if it did matter?
5604But you had a charmed life?
5604But, my dear Rejjy, are you quite sure that Miss Bridgenorth is going to be married?
5604By the way, what has happened to the wedding party?
5604COLLINS[ awestruck] Has Mrs George taken a fancy to you, sir?
5604COLLINS[ equally startled] Did nt you believe in her, maam?
5604COLLINS[ his curiosity roused] Is Slattox taking an action against you, miss?
5604Ca nt nothing be done, my lord?
5604Ca nt you answer yes or no without spoiling it and setting Hotchkiss here grinning like a Cheshire cat?
5604Ca nt you guess why?
5604Ca nt you hear anything?
5604Ca nt you three brothers ever meet without quarrelling?
5604Can I be mistaken in him?
5604Can we help you?
5604Can you come down to earth?
5604Can you ever forgive me?
5604Can you find it for us, Anthony?
5604Cecil: do you mean to say that you have been raising difficulties about our marriage?
5604Christian fellowship?
5604Could I settle it?
5604DIVORCE WITHOUT ASKING WHY The one question that should never be put to a petitioner for divorce is"Why?"
5604Dare you defy me?
5604Did you ever bite a grown- up man?
5604Did you ever call both of them every name you could lay your tongue to?
5604Did you ever feel inclined to run away, Collins?
5604Did you ever hear such a thing?
5604Did you ever, after you were grown up, pull a grown- up woman''s hair?
5604Do nt you know that it annoys her more than any of the rest of your tricks?
5604Do nt you think it gives me a certain right to be present in Cecil''s interest?
5604Do nt you think so?
5604Do nt you?
5604Do you believe in marriage or do you not?
5604Do you call them Englishmen?
5604Do you call these chaps gentlemen?
5604Do you call yourself a gentleman, to use your brute strength against a woman?
5604Do you consider it right to let them?
5604Do you deny it?
5604Do you deny that?
5604Do you expect me to get married in the existing state of the law?
5604Do you find any real happiness in being your own mistress?
5604Do you know what a decent man feels about his wife''s name?
5604Do you know what it is to look at a mere real man after that?
5604Do you know what that feels like to a decent man?
5604Do you love me?
5604Do you love this absurd coal merchant?
5604Do you love your Jorjy Porjy?
5604Do you mean Incognita Appassionata?
5604Do you never feel nervous on these occasions, Collins?
5604Do you really think you re better suited to that young sauce box than her husband?
5604Do you remember who I am, and who you are?
5604Do you see my uniform-- all my medals?
5604Do you see nothing-- not a great light?
5604Do you see this face, once fresh and rosy like your own, now scarred and riven by a hundred burnt- out fires?
5604Do you set up any sort of pretence to be my equal in rank, in age, or in culture?
5604Do you suppose I ever wanted to marry her?
5604Do you suppose I''m going to visit you when you marry him?
5604Do you think I have never been in love with wonderful men?
5604Do you think I will give up my one advantage?
5604Do you think that I, a Bishop, approve of the Deceased Wife''s Sister Act?
5604Do you understand this, my lord?
5604Do you want me to flatter and be untruthful?
5604Do you want the Beadle as well?
5604Do you?
5604Does anybody want me to flatter and be untruthful?
5604Does it strike you that if we were all as clever as you at doing without, there would nt be much to live for, would there?
5604Does she approve of Mrs George?
5604Does she know what hour it is?
5604Does that help?
5604Does your present housekeeper do it for nothing?
5604Done what, Cecil?
5604Eh, Anthony?
5604Eh, Rejjy?
5604Even for George?
5604Excuse me, sir; but do you stay to breakfast?
5604George was a bachelor then, I suppose?
5604HOTCHKISS[ admiring her] Are you really game, Polly?
5604HOTCHKISS[ anxiously] When will George be at home?
5604HOTCHKISS[ gaily] Or take you as a matter of course?
5604HOTCHKISS[ taken aback] Do you mean that we should be alone?
5604HOTCHKISS[ to Collins] May I, as a friend of the family, have the privilege of calling you Bill?
5604HOTCHKISS[ uneasily leaning against the table and holding on to it to control his nervous movements] Need you tell me?
5604Half the cases are collusions: what are people to do?
5604Hang it all, Lesbia, do nt you want a husband?
5604Has Alice explained to you the nature of the document we are drafting?
5604Has he told you any stories this morning?
5604Has nt she got into her veil and orange blossoms yet?
5604Has--[he chokes] has your sister come yet?
5604Have you been out, my dear?
5604Have you children no affection for one another?
5604Have you come to an understanding?
5604Have you eaten anything that has disagreed with you?
5604Have you kept all your promises?
5604Have you never wanted to murder somebody, Uncle Rejjy?
5604Have you no imagination?
5604Have you reconciled them, Boxer?
5604Have you rubbed your head with the lotion every night?
5604Have you the least idea of what they are talking about, Mr Alderman?
5604Have you thought of that?
5604Have you worn your liver pad?
5604He did kick me out: what else was it but kicking out, to take my wife''s affections from me and establish himself in my place?
5604He did nt mind my calling him that, did he?
5604He wo nt be offended at my offering it, will he?
5604How are you to please them all?
5604How are you, Boxer?
5604How are you, Boxer?
5604How can I?
5604How can I?
5604How can he?
5604How could she have got her divorce if I had nt beaten her?
5604How did you know?
5604How do I know?
5604How do you come there?
5604How do you do, Mrs Collins?
5604How do you do?
5604How do you know?
5604How if there be no children?
5604How is the world to go on?
5604How would you like to go into a hotel before all the waiters and people with-- with that on your arm?
5604How?
5604I ask you, as an Anglican Catholic, was that a marriage?
5604I carried the child in my arms: must I carry the father too?
5604I have dared: I have gone through: I have not fallen withered in the fire: I have come at last out beyond, to the back of Godspeed?
5604I have something else to say; but will you please ask somebody to come and stay here while we talk?
5604I never read the report of a Committee: after all, what can they say, that you do nt know?
5604I never stoop to mere vituperation: what would my girls say of me if I did?
5604I never suspected-- I never knew-- Are you joking?
5604I paid the price without bargaining: I bore the children without flinching: was that a reason for heaping fresh burdens on me?
5604I wonder what my wife will say, Miss?
5604I''m to come on liking for the month?
5604If I choose to take ten kisses, how will you prevent me?
5604If it''s enough, why get married?
5604If not, what will it do with her?
5604If she puts on her veil and goes to Church, will you marry her?
5604In what way?
5604Is Edith to be given away by him?
5604Is Leo to be encouraged to be a polygamist?
5604Is he to walk in here to Edith''s wedding, reeking from the Divorce Court?
5604Is it a horrible dream or am I awake?
5604Is it you that s going to be married or is it Edith?
5604Is my destiny any longer in my own hands?
5604Is not love always falsified in novels and plays to make it endurable?
5604Is not the real thing accursed?
5604Is nt that what my reason is for?
5604Is that it?
5604Is that really the law?
5604Is the marriage to be for a year, a week, or a day?
5604Is there anything else before I go off to the Club?
5604Is this fair?
5604Is this out of a book?
5604Is your name Edith?
5604Is your, wife ashamed of your robes?
5604It was not the sexton, was it?
5604It''s so hard to know the right place to laugh, is nt it?
5604Kept?
5604LEO[ to the Bishop] Baptism is nearly as important as vaccination: is nt it?
5604LESBIA[ turning on him] Then why on earth do you want to marry a woman you do nt understand?
5604Like most men, you think you know everything a woman wants, do nt you?
5604MRS BRIDGENORTH[ petting Leo, but speaking to the company at large] But is nt all this great nonsense?
5604MRS BRIDGENORTH[ startled] Do you mean to say, Collins, that Mrs George is a real person?
5604MRS GEORGE[ beside herself] Where s the poker?
5604MRS GEORGE[ desperate] You mean it?
5604MRS GEORGE[ going to her past the Bishop, and gazing intently at her] Are you his wife?
5604MRS GEORGE[ leaving Soames and going a step or two nearer Hotchkiss] Why arnt you like him, Sonny?
5604MRS GEORGE[ looking after him triumphantly] Just caught the dear old warrior on the bounce, eh?
5604MRS GEORGE[ panting] Sha nt I though?
5604MRS GEORGE[ rising, at bay] Do you think I''ll let myself be driven into a trap like this?
5604MRS GEORGE[ rising] You wo nt then?
5604MRS GEORGE[ to Leo] Well, you ve more time to get married again than he has, havnt you?
5604MRS GEORGE[ to Sykes] Adorned for the sacrifice, arnt you?
5604MRS GEORGE[ turning to the railed chair] Who''s this?
5604MRS GEORGE[ waking] What was that?
5604MRS. BRIDGENORTH}{ What?
5604Mamma: will you tell Collins to cut up the wedding cake into thirty- three pieces for the club girls?
5604May I ask why, Lesbia?
5604May I ask, my dear, what she did?
5604May I go into the study for writing materials, Bishop?
5604May I have a word with you in private?
5604May I send up word from you to Miss Edith to hurry a bit with her dressing?
5604May not the three be one?
5604May one ask who is the mushroom- faced serpent?
5604Might I ask what the difficulty is?
5604Mr Bridgenorth: are you going to leave this house or am I?
5604Mr Kipling''s question,"What can they know of England that only England know?"
5604Must I mend your clothes and sweep your floors as well?
5604My lord; is this possession by the devil?
5604No assignations, you mean?
5604No music?
5604Now you know, do nt you, that your services to the community as a greengrocer are as important and as dignified as mine as a soldier?
5604Oh, do nt begin bothering about those-- LEO[ insisting] Have?
5604Or have we all gone mad?
5604Or is it your usual society small talk?
5604Or take you and canonize you?
5604Or the convulsion of the pythoness on the tripod?
5604Or the ecstasy of a saint?
5604Or to me?
5604Promises?
5604REGINALD[ aggressively] What s the truth about you, I wonder?
5604REGINALD[ out of patience] What s the good of beating your wife unless there s a witness to prove it afterwards?
5604REGINALD[ rising] How could I kick him out of the house?
5604REGINALD[ savagely] Will you tell me this, any of you?
5604REGINALD[ turning] Was it?
5604REGINALD[ watching them sourly] You do it yourself, do nt you?
5604REGINALD}{ What d''ye mean?
5604Reginald: do you think the Barmecide''s quite sane?
5604SOAMES[ sternly] Are you fonder of your wife than of your salvation?
5604SOAMES[ turning fiercely on him] What right have you to say so?
5604SOAMES[ whispering] Is she inspired?
5604SYKES[ looks irresolutely at Hotchkiss]--?
5604SYKES[ rising and coming to Collin''s left elbow] I put it to you as a sensible man: is it any worse for her than for me?
5604SYKES[ rising in amazement] What on earth do you mean, Bishop?
5604Shall we go upstairs and look at the presents and dresses?
5604Shall we try to get through the last batch of letters whilst they are away, Soames?
5604Sir?
5604So strangely mixed up with the story of the General''s life?
5604Soames: you re a Communist, arnt you?
5604Sooner than expose him to that, you would suffer a thousand stolen kisses, would nt you?
5604Suppose he kicks you out of the house?
5604Suppose the woman does nt behave herself?
5604Suppose you felt it to be your duty to shoot Slattox, what would become of me and the children?
5604Surely that s enough?
5604Sykes: are you ready to marry Edith or are you not?
5604THE BISHOP[ condoling] Yes: he repeats himself dreadfully, does nt he?
5604THE BISHOP[ reading the title] Do YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO DO?
5604THE BISHOP[ saving her from falling] What s the matter?
5604THE BISHOP[ to Hotchkiss] Nothing like making people think: is there, Sinjon?
5604THE GENERAL[ aghast] Am I to understand-- THE BISHOP[ cutting him short] Now, Boxer, am I the Bishop or are you?
5604THE GENERAL[ coming forward to the table] Can anybody oblige me with some tobacco?
5604THE GENERAL[ coming from the garden door to the chair Mrs Bridgenorth has just left, and sitting down] Not more Ritualism, I hope, Alfred?
5604THE GENERAL[ excited by Reginald''s eloquence] Do you see my uniform?
5604THE GENERAL[ gasping] Do you mean to tell me that you did it in cold blood?
5604THE GENERAL[ jumping up] What right had he to be made room for?
5604THE GENERAL[ outraged] Do you imply that I have been guilty of conduct that would expose me to penal servitude?
5604THE GENERAL[ somewhat dazed] Well but-- excuse my mentioning it-- dont you want children?
5604THE GENERAL[ turning abruptly; he has been looking out into the garden] Do you mean to say that women write love- letters to you?
5604THE GENERAL{ both} What the devil do you mean by{ highly} This?
5604THE GENERAL}{ Eh?
5604That s cooled you, has it?
5604That she came back?
5604The Bishop''s wife?
5604The only question to be considered is, What shall the conditions of the dissolution be?
5604The question therefore arises: What is there in marriage that makes the thoughtful people so uncomfortable?
5604The relations between Leo and Rejjy and Sinjon are perfectly legal; but do you expect me, as a Bishop, to approve of them?
5604The sexton?
5604The world must go on, must nt it, Collins?
5604Then what use is it to me?
5604Then where s your gown?
5604Then why did you not do your duty at Smutsfontein?
5604Then why not dignify my niece''s wedding by wearing your robes?
5604Then why on earth should she leave him?
5604They d simply rot without us; but what do they ever do for us?
5604Upon what compulsion must I?
5604WHAT IS TO BECOME OF THE CHILDREN?
5604Was it not enough?
5604Was it not enough?
5604Was it not enough?
5604Was it not enough?
5604We all eat our rice pudding with a spoon, do nt we, Soames?
5604We do nt seem to be getting on, do we?
5604We sha nt be any worse friends, shall we?
5604Well, had nt you two better get married at once?
5604Well, how am I to express it?
5604Well, how else do you propose to settle it?
5604Well, we do nt seem to be getting along, do we?
5604Well, we do nt seem to be getting any further, do we?
5604Well, what could he do, maam?
5604Well, what do you suppose?
5604Well, why should we be ashamed of this aspiration towards what is above us?
5604Well, you do nt expect them to give themselves away, do you?
5604Were you going to throw him over?
5604Were you not paid then for all the rest of your struggle on earth?
5604What about his home?
5604What about the wedding?
5604What are you afraid of?
5604What are you doing?
5604What are you working at now?
5604What can I do now?
5604What can I say now?
5604What can he say?
5604What can you expect?
5604What could I do?
5604What could I say?
5604What dare he say?
5604What did Collins say?
5604What did they say to that?
5604What do you call it?
5604What do you know about it?
5604What do you say, Mr Alderman?
5604What do you think of the contract system, Collins?
5604What does she say when you tell her?
5604What does that mean?
5604What for, miss, if I may ask?
5604What has that to do with polygamy?
5604What is she reading?
5604What is the element in his proposals that produces this effect?
5604What is the first clause in an agreement, usually?
5604What is the social position of this lady?
5604What likelihood is there of any of us committing a crime?
5604What man ever has?
5604What on earth are you doing here, Sinjon?
5604What right?
5604What s the matter?
5604What s the matter?
5604What should we begin with?
5604What sort of servants?
5604What the devil did he do that for?
5604What was I to do?
5604What was your father?
5604What will he think of you then?
5604What will the King''s Proctor say?
5604What woman would not rather marry ten Pepyses?
5604What would you have said if Cecil''s parents had not been married?
5604When I opened the gates of paradise, were you blind?
5604When all the stars sang in your ears and all the winds swept you into the heart of heaven, were you deaf?
5604When its hour comes, what are the points the Cabinet will have to take up?
5604When will you be old enough to take no for an answer?
5604Where have you been all this time?
5604Where s Edith?
5604Where s Rejjy?
5604Where s the Barmecide?
5604Which parent is to own the youngest child, payment or no payment?
5604Who am I that I should rebuke you?
5604Who are the fathers to be?
5604Who asked you to cut in?
5604Who gave you away?
5604Who is Billiter?
5604Who is poor Cecil, pray?
5604Who is to be the judge of that, my dear?
5604Who kissed my hand?
5604Why ca nt I marry them both?
5604Why did Leo allow it?
5604Why did nt you tell me that before?
5604Why did you do it?
5604Why do nt I say that an honest man''s the noblest work of God?
5604Why do they want to marry us?
5604Why do you always call Lesbia my sister?
5604Why do you hang on to a scrubby woman in the next street?
5604Why do you say only the coal merchant''s wife?
5604Why is the man always to be put in the wrong?
5604Why not?
5604Why on earth should you kill yourself-- not to mention me?
5604Why should the taking of a husband be imposed on these women as the price of their right to maternity?
5604Why should they be tied together to sit there grudging and hating and spiting one another like so many do?
5604Why should they be, pray?
5604Why should we be held together whether we like it or not?
5604Why should you give yourself the trouble, maam?
5604Why were nt you dressed?
5604Why were you so unlike yourself when you spoke to the Bishop?
5604Why, who are the children to belong to?
5604Why?
5604Will she be happy when she finds you out?
5604Will somebody tell me how the world is to go on if nobody is to get married?
5604Will somebody tell me what an honorable man and a sincere Anglican is to propose to a woman whom he loves and who loves him and wo nt marry him?
5604Will the Labor Exchange find employers for her?
5604Will you be happy if you marry her?
5604Will you be so good as to join us and allow us the benefit of your wisdom and experience?
5604Will you be so kind as to tell me whether I am dreaming?
5604Will you give it up and get married, Edith?
5604Will you introduce me?
5604Will you not take me as I am?
5604With Cecil?
5604Wo nt you let me stay?
5604Wo nt you sit down, Mr Alderman?
5604Would it not then be well to try unlimited polygyny; so that the remaining fifth could have as many wives apiece as they could afford?
5604Would you marry now that you know better if you were a widower?
5604Would you steal a turnip from one of the fields they have no right to?
5604Would you steal a turnip from one of the landlords of those stolen lands?
5604Would you, a Bishop, approve of such partnerships?
5604Yes; but shall we take you and burn you?
5604Yes?
5604You amused the husband, did nt you?
5604You call it that, do you?
5604You call that work?
5604You could nt know that it was only the coal merchant''s wife, could you?
5604You damned scoundrel, how dare you throw my wife over like that before my face?
5604You did all this for Leo''s sake, Rejjy?
5604You do nt believe in women, do you, Anthony?
5604You do nt mind, Dad, do you?
5604You do nt suppose a man beats his wife for the fun of it, do you?
5604You have both given in, have you?
5604You hear that, Lesbia?
5604You know the story of his life, then?
5604You love me?
5604You or he?
5604You re not going to speak to me again, anyhow, are you?
5604You re quite done with him, are you?
5604You read my letters, then?
5604You see the relatives shaking hands with them and asking them about the family-- actually ladies saying"Where have we met before?"
5604You think the truth useless?
5604You understand that?
5604You will superintend the breakfast yourself as usual, of course, wo nt you?
5604You wo nt mind, old chap, do you?
5604You?
5604Your?
5604[ Aloud to her] May I suggest that you shall be Anthony''s devil and the Bishop''s saint and my adored Polly?
5604[ Coming a little nearer and bending his face towards hers] Now I put it to you, does it not show you the folly of not marrying?
5604[ Coming to Mrs Bridgenorth] How do, Alice?
5604[ Looking at Edith''s dressing- jacket] You re not going to get married like that, are you?
5604[ Passing on towards the hearth] Why so gloomy, General?
5604[ Rising] But what s it got to do with our business here to- day?
5604[ To Leo] By the way, who was it that joined you and Reginald, my dear?
5604[ To Mrs Bridgenorth] Do nt you think her letters are quite the best love- letters I get?
5604[ To Mrs Bridgenorth] Will you receive here or in the hall, maam?
5604[ To Mrs George] How much ought I to give him, Mrs Collins?
5604[ To Soames, coaxingly] You do nt mind, do you?
5604[ To the Bishop, eagerly] Was it you?
5604[ Uneasily] Alfred: why do nt you say something?
5604[ With great energy, becoming quite herself again] What the goodness gracious has been happening?
5604a man with his boots in every corner, and the smell of his tobacco in every curtain?
5604and had the strangest adventures with them?
5604how is it that we always get talking about Hotchkiss when our business is about Edith?
5604marriage is not a question of law, is it?
5604simply to get rid of your wife?
5604true, It''s about the wedding?
5604was I no more to you than a bone to a dog?
5604was it nothing to you?
5604were you dull?
5604what attention do they ever pay to what we say and what we want?
5604what man a dozen Nell Gwynnes?
5604what sort of Prime Ministers should we have if we took them for better for worse for all their lives?
5604what sort of friends?
21635A beauty? 21635 A- are you?"
21635Ah, roused your curiosity, did I? 21635 Am I all right?
21635And do n''t you?
21635And if it comes back?
21635And you''ll do us a favor and be nice to Duckie, wo n''t you? 21635 And you''re very much in favor of it, are n''t you, Connie precious?"
21635Are Jerry and Prudence having domestic difficulties? 21635 Are boys always like that father?"
21635Are n''t we getting sensible?
21635Are n''t we lazy to- day?
21635Are there any holes in these stockings?
21635Are they gone?
21635Are you doing another napkin? 21635 Are you fond of Jim, Carol?"
21635Are you going out again?
21635Are you going to tell Connie?
21635Are you going to wait until he asks you?
21635Are you nearly tired to death?
21635Are you scared, Lark?
21635Are you still sure it is Gene?
21635Are you sure it''s measles, Aunt Grace?
21635Are you?
21635Are-- are we late for dinner?
21635As usual?
21635At Forrests''?
21635But I ca n''t help it, can I? 21635 But does n''t it seem foolish to go clear through college, and spend the money, and then-- marry without using the education?"
21635But how on earth do they know?
21635But however did you do it?
21635But what for? 21635 But what''s the idea?
21635But what''s the idea?
21635But what''s the object?
21635But where have you had it?
21635But wo n''t she dislike me if I do?
21635But, Professor,she argued,"ca n''t people do good without preaching?
21635But-- twins, do you think-- minister''s daughters ought to read-- things like that?
21635Ca n''t you drop that everlasting hemstitching, embroidering, tatting, crocheting, for ten minutes to talk to me? 21635 Ca n''t you see the poor thing is just tired to death?
21635Ca n''t you write to me a little oftener, Carol? 21635 Call me David, wo n''t you, Carol?
21635Can you write?
21635Carol, did you curl your hair?
21635Carol,he said,"my little song- bird,"--and he laughed, but very tenderly,"would you like to know how to make me say what you know I want to say?"
21635Connie, run out to the barn and bring my hat, will you? 21635 Connie?"
21635Connie?
21635D- do you?
21635Did I rub the powder all off?
21635Did I say that?
21635Did any of the others know about the fruit?
21635Did he find his incarceration trying?
21635Did he? 21635 Did it hurt, Carol?
21635Did n''t Prudence teach us to love everybody?
21635Did n''t they look sorry? 21635 Did she get you out of a scrape?"
21635Did the veil come?
21635Did they ask us to stay a whole week, auntie?
21635Did they tell you all about it?
21635Did you ever send''em off?
21635Did you get the story back?
21635Did you have a pleasant visit?
21635Did you see them?
21635Did you want me to say it, dearest? 21635 Do n''t we know everybody does it?
21635Do n''t we love her better than anybody on earth,--except ourselves?
21635Do n''t you remember how Prudence gasped? 21635 Do n''t you think it is a glorious idea, Connie?"
21635Do you care how soon I get married?
21635Do you love me?
21635Do you think he''s crazy about you, Carol?
21635Do you think she''ll ever make it?
21635Do you think this suit will convince Grace that I am worth taking care of? 21635 Do you want to break men''s hearts?"
21635Do you want to?
21635Does Prudence know it?
21635Does n''t that sound exactly like a book, now?
21635Fairy wants to know if you are getting stage fright, Lark? 21635 Father,"she said,"would you be very sorry if I did n''t teach school after all?"
21635Get her a drink, ca n''t you, Connie?
21635Good guess, was n''t it?
21635Good morning, Carrie, how are you this morning?
21635Goodness, Prue, are n''t you going to do anything but eat after you move to Des Moines? 21635 Had a sunstroke?"
21635Have n''t any? 21635 Have n''t we been a parsonage bunch long enough to be tickled to death to be sent any place?"
21635He''s here.--''Aunt Lark, may I have a cooky?''
21635How about it? 21635 How did it happen?"
21635How do I look?
21635How is it?
21635How is your mother, Jim?
21635How long?
21635How many times did you read it?
21635How should I know?
21635I am very busy with my work, so you will understand if my letters come less frequently, wo n''t you? 21635 I do n''t get everything I want, do I?"
21635I sure do know,he said fervently,"did n''t I have to do a speech at the commencement exercises?
21635I-- well, I made you say it, did n''t I?
21635Is Carol sick, Grace?
21635Is Prudence all right?
21635Is he nice?
21635Is it a doctor book?
21635Is it all settled?
21635Is it any good?
21635Is n''t everything wonderful, father?
21635Is n''t it lovely?
21635Is n''t it-- awful? 21635 Is n''t she a beauty?"
21635Is n''t the house still?
21635Is she all right?
21635Is that what makes you so-- so shiny, and smiley, and starry all the time?
21635It does look nice, does n''t it? 21635 It does smell good, does n''t it?
21635It''s so hard to talk when there''s a roomful, is n''t it? 21635 Jerry looked awfully handsome, did n''t he?
21635Jerry-- what?
21635Jim Forrest,she demanded,"is it Lark you want to marry, or me?"
21635Lark,he began hurriedly,"do you know the Dalys?
21635Let me have it, wo n''t you? 21635 Let''s cut and run, will you?"
21635Let''s go and take a walk, sha n''t we, Carol? 21635 Like it?
21635Look here, Fairy,he began,"what''s the joke?
21635Look out, Connie, do you want to break part of my daughter off the first thing? 21635 May I speak to one of the twins?"
21635Me? 21635 Mind?
21635My mind? 21635 No?"
21635Now what''ll we do? 21635 Now, what shall I do?"
21635Of whom were you thinking, Carol?
21635Oh, William,she sighed,"ca n''t you remember that you are a Methodist minister, and a grandfather, and-- grow up a little?"
21635Oh, ca n''t I? 21635 Oh, girls,"she whimpered,"is n''t it awful?
21635Oh, is n''t it a glorious morning?
21635Oh, is that it?
21635Oh, why do they,--what makes men like that? 21635 Oh,"she breathed,"oh, is n''t the parsonage lovely, Carol?
21635Poetry? 21635 Pretty good,--eh, what?"
21635Prudence, and Fairy,--it was pretty cute of Fairy, was n''t it?
21635Remember that last quarter we borrowed of you? 21635 Run along,"he said,"but do n''t be gone long, will you?
21635Say, Prue, knock me down and sit on me, will you? 21635 Shall we flip a coin to see who I get in front?"
21635Shall we have Alice or Katie? 21635 Since then?"
21635Stay in-- What?
21635Stick a pin in it, will you? 21635 Teaching you things, are they?"
21635Tell Aunt Grace, will you? 21635 The question is, will we be proud of you after the concert?"
21635Then why did you go up in the attic and cry all morning when Prudence was fixing the room for her?
21635Then you have n''t set your heart on my teaching?
21635Then you would object if he had dates?
21635Then, in common vernacular, though it is really beneath us, what''s up?
21635Think so? 21635 Trying to be a blank verse, Fairy?
21635Twins,he said, without preamble,"what do you want more than anything else?"
21635Was it a nice conference?
21635Was it any good?
21635Was n''t it a dandy day?
21635We can use him to make Jim Forrest jealous if he does n''t ask for that date?
21635Well, I''m sorry, I wo n''t have time to change them.--Did they come in the auto? 21635 Well, shall we have her come?"
21635Well, she ca n''t get married without Carol, can she?
21635Well, would you like to try your hand out with me?
21635Well?
21635What are you going to do this summer, Lark?
21635What are you reading that for?
21635What are you reading, Con?
21635What are you reading?
21635What city?
21635What did you do with them when they came back?
21635What did you do?
21635What difference does that make? 21635 What difference does that make?"
21635What do you call it, Carol,''sowing seeds of kindness''?
21635What do you think about it, Aunt Grace?
21635What do you think about it, Connie? 21635 What do you think of, it?"
21635What do you want it for?
21635What do you want?
21635What does Carol think about it?
21635What else did she tell you?
21635What for?
21635What for?
21635What happened?
21635What have they been doing?
21635What in the world is it?
21635What in the world?
21635What indeed?
21635What is he saying now?
21635What is it?
21635What is the joke?
21635What is the matter, Prue? 21635 What kind of slave- drivers do you think we are?"
21635What made her back down like that?
21635What makes you think you can write, Con?
21635What on earth are you doing?
21635What shall we do now?
21635What would you advise, Lark?
21635What''s gone, Carrie?
21635What''s gone? 21635 What''s the matter with you?"
21635What''s the matter?
21635What''s the matter?
21635What''s the matter?
21635What''s the poem?
21635What''s the sense in it? 21635 What''s up?"
21635What''s up?
21635What''s your father for?
21635What?
21635What?
21635Whatever do you suppose is the matter?
21635Where are the girls?
21635Where are the twins?
21635Where are the twins?
21635Where are we going?
21635Where are you going?
21635Where are you going?
21635Where did you get the money for that basket of fruit?
21635Where did you look?
21635Where in the world have you been all day? 21635 Where is she sick?"
21635Where now?
21635Where''d you get that dime, Connie?
21635Where''s papa?
21635Where''s the criminal?
21635Who next?
21635Who says fizzle?
21635Who won?
21635Who''s haunted?
21635Who, me? 21635 Why did n''t you let me look it over, Connie?"
21635Why do n''t you lie down and let Lark use you for a footstool, Carol?
21635Why on earth did n''t you say so in the first place?
21635Why should n''t I think so? 21635 Why, did n''t you catch on to that?
21635Why, we sent it out, and--"Just once?
21635Why? 21635 Will you buy the rest of us some silk stockings?"
21635Will you come and button me up? 21635 Will you keep it hidden?
21635Will you kindly get back to your seat, young lady, and not interfere with my thoughts?
21635Will you listen to that?
21635Will you run out to the kitchen and bring me a bowl of soup, my child?
21635William,she said gently,"what''s the matter with you lately?
21635Wo n''t I drink any more?
21635Wo n''t believe it? 21635 Would n''t Connie scream if she could hear that?
21635Write it up?
21635Yes, infant, who cheated, and how, and why? 21635 Yes, is n''t it?"
21635Yes, tall fellow with black hair and eyes, was n''t he? 21635 Yes,--didn''t you know it?"
21635Yesterday? 21635 You are n''t thinking of turning Christian Scientists, yourselves, are you?"
21635You ca n''t tell me?
21635You do n''t mean that Christian Science book, do you? 21635 You do n''t think I''m too young?"
21635You do n''t think there''s any danger of her falling in love with the wrong man?
21635You have known it a long time, have n''t you? 21635 You know, auntie darling--""Now, Carol, do n''t you suggest anything--""Oh, no indeed, dearest, how could you think of such a thing?"
21635You understand, do n''t you, father, that I''m just going to be plain married when the time comes? 21635 You would n''t want Prue to stick around and be an old maid, would you?
21635You''re not going?
21635You-- are?
21635You-- you?
21635_ Scianceanelth._"What?
21635_ Science and Health_? 21635 _ The Rubaiyat?_ By Khayyam?
21635_ The Rubaiyat?_ By Khayyam? 21635 And I think I would be justified in objecting if he deliberately made occasions for himself, do n''t you?
21635And Lark would answer,"Dandy!--Have you read this?"
21635And have n''t I the best complexion in Mount Mark?
21635And in reply to the first Jim always answered,"That''s a shame,--why did n''t you remember me and hold off?"
21635And what could Connie do?
21635And what on earth was she laughing at?"
21635And whence the startling array of pennies?
21635And why this unwonted affection for the heathen?"
21635And-- if I pick the cherries on the little tree, will you make a pie for dinner?"
21635Any objections?"
21635Are n''t men funny?
21635Are there any lemons, auntie?
21635Are we square?
21635Are we-- are we-- well, anyhow, what business has a minister''s daughter reading trash like this?"
21635Are you feeling well?''
21635Are you getting me?"
21635Are you intending to carpet your floors with it?"
21635Are you out of your head?"
21635Are you trying to run me out of my job?
21635Are you trying to throw yourself into the old school- teacher''s pocketbook, or what?"
21635Are your fingers itching to get hold of that four thousand a year the twins are eternally bragging about?
21635At least, you did n''t write, did you?"
21635At times Carol pointed to a line, and said in a low voice,"That''s good, is n''t it?"
21635Aunt Grace, will you put the iron on for me?
21635Babbie''s nice, and dear, and all that, and he''s so crazy about you, and-- do you love him?"
21635Back already?"
21635But I did n''t finish my news, did I?
21635But I do believe it was God who said,''What''s your father for?''
21635But I wonder if they ever do?
21635But have n''t I got to answer the call?"
21635But she lingered effectively, whispering softly:"Shall I lower the window, madame?
21635But they have to call it something, have n''t they?
21635But you can finish him off, ca n''t you?
21635But-- are they all alike, Professor?"
21635CHAPTER XII SOWING SEEDS"Have you seen Mrs. Harbert lately, Carol?"
21635Ca n''t I go and tell Connie and Lark?
21635Ca n''t I have a good time in my own way without the whole church pedaling me from door to door?"
21635Ca n''t you see we''re listening?"
21635Ca n''t you try to make it pleasant for him this week?
21635Can you take the responsibility of rearing a family that knows trouble only?
21635Can you trust me with the cherries?"
21635Carol adjusted the invalid auntie''s shawl once more, and was ready to go to the kitchen when a quiet:"Wo n''t Miss Carol sit down with us?"
21635Carol giggled softly to herself a few times, and Lark opened one eye, asking,"What''s amatter?"
21635Come in with me, wo n''t you, Larkie?"
21635Did it come?"
21635Did n''t he tell us to create a good impression?
21635Did n''t you get a new gray suit?
21635Did something bite you?"
21635Did you have any luncheon?
21635Did you notice how he glowed at Prudence?
21635Did you pack any clean handkerchiefs, auntie?
21635Did you put that dime in the bank?"
21635Dignity?
21635Do I look literary?
21635Do I look twenty- five dollars better than I did yesterday?"
21635Do my letters sound all right?
21635Do n''t all the men want to propose to a complexion like mine?"
21635Do n''t you remember what I told you?
21635Do n''t you remember, Lark, I said my head ached?"
21635Do n''t you see?
21635Do you dare cast in your fortunes with a parsonage bunch that revels in misfortune?
21635Do you get that?"
21635Do you have to enclose enough to bring them back?
21635Do you mean a live one?
21635Do you suppose he was kidnaping her?"
21635Do you think she looks like me?"
21635Do you think she''ll have me?"
21635Do you think we''re all wooden Indians?
21635Duke?"
21635Go on, daddy, who''s to be our next flock?"
21635Had the long and dearly desired war been declared at last?
21635Had they hired the awful Slaughterers to bring this disgrace upon the parsonage?
21635Has father gone out?"
21635Have n''t we any ideals?
21635Have n''t we any standards?
21635Have n''t you noticed how sweet and sunny and dear the twins have been lately?
21635Have the boys come?"
21635Have you been waiting, too?
21635He had not spoken, but something certainly had asked,"What''s your father for?"
21635He is coming, is n''t he?"
21635He_ is_ nice, is n''t he?
21635Hedges?"
21635Her"Good morning,--isn''t this glorious weather?"
21635Here, auntie, pin it over for me, will you?
21635Here, grandpa, what do you think of this?
21635Honestly, Jerry, is it Fairy?
21635Honestly?
21635How about it?
21635How about the letters, Carol?
21635How can I know whether it''s trash or not, unless I read it?
21635How can I?--How did I know?--What on earth,--Oh, Carol whatever made you smile at them?"
21635How did you get it all out in one breath?"
21635I certainly did n''t say it was I, did I?
21635I do enjoy a good correspondence with--""Do you?"
21635I do n''t know that I could do much better, do you, auntie?
21635I do n''t suppose we''ll need to take any money, auntie, do you?
21635I know there is n''t a girl like her in ten thousand, but-- she''s the one I want, and-- Carol, do you reckon there is any chance for me?
21635I mean if he proposes to you, are you going to turn him down, or not?"
21635I mean, are n''t you ahead of yourself?
21635I thought there was something wrong, and--""Sort of mentally unbalanced, is that it?
21635I''ve never told even Lark-- Well, one night, when I was a sophomore,--do you remember Bud Garvin?"
21635If you want to marry Lark, what in the world are you out here proposing to me for?"
21635Is Joe there?
21635Is he coming to- night?"
21635Is he here?"
21635Is it too cool?
21635Is it very nice?"
21635Is it-- that?
21635Is n''t Aunt Grace here on purpose to chaperon him and keep the ladies off?
21635Is n''t it a lovely day?
21635Is n''t it a shame?"
21635Is n''t life serious?"
21635Is n''t she sick?
21635Is n''t that a family gift?"
21635Is that Jim Forrest with them?
21635Is that proper?"
21635Is there anything on your mind?"
21635It was just the flannel, was it?
21635It''s Connie all right, is n''t it?
21635It''s a big mistake.--What on earth are the twins doing out there?
21635Just wait till I powder my nose, will you?
21635Lark does n''t have secrets from you, does she?
21635Lark,--where did you put that ripping knife?
21635Later in the day Prudence drew her aunt to one side and asked softly,"Was it much of a shock to you, Aunt Grace?
21635Let''s go out to the creek for a stroll ourselves, shall we?
21635Look on Him, believe in Him, worship Him, and in His name you stand O. K.''See?
21635May I bring a few pieces along?''
21635Mercy, father, does n''t the conference furnish the elders with houses?
21635Miss Starr?"
21635Now I think, Aunt Grace, lovely, it would be nice for you to wear your lavender lace gown, and look delicate, do n''t you?
21635Now we understand each other, do n''t we?"
21635Now what shall I do?"
21635Now you wo n''t give me away, will you?
21635Now, what?"
21635Oh, dear Mrs. Forrest, whatever in the world made you think that?"
21635Oh, why had n''t he wired?
21635On Elm Street?"
21635One evening at the dinner table Fairy said, with a mocking smile,"How are your Slaughter- house friends to- day, Carol?
21635P''fesser is not appropriate any more, is it?"
21635Papa, whatever shall we do?
21635Papa,--why do n''t you do something?"
21635Pretty fair boost for a struggling young author, do n''t you think?
21635Remember him?
21635Say, Fairy, you''ll be nice to Duckie, wo n''t you?
21635See here, do you mean to say you are making fun of Fairy Harmer?
21635See?
21635See?
21635Seven- six- two?
21635Shall I put your purse in my pocket?
21635Shall I tell you?"
21635She got most of our spending money for a good many years, did n''t she?"
21635That will be stagey, wo n''t it?
21635That''s not what you twins are devouring so ravenously, is it?"
21635The Starrs, therefore, would be transferred, and where?
21635The family drowned in soot to welcome you?
21635The girls stood stock- still and gazed at him, and then, with a violent struggle for self- composure Carol asked:"Did you get any of it in advance?
21635The nearest twin was summoned, and then he asked:"Have you twins got dates for the ball game?"
21635Then as he came slowly down the stairs, she said to her sisters again, anxiously:"Oh, girls, do keep nice and clean, wo n''t you?
21635There now, there now, baby, was she her daddy''s little girl?"
21635There''s father-- now, he never cared to kiss the girls even in his bad and balmy days, did you, daddy?
21635These fellows that break themselves--""Break themselves?"
21635Think it''s old age?"
21635Think you can manage a little oftener?"
21635This is the sixteenth dozen, is n''t it?
21635This spot on my thumb is fried egg, here are three doughnuts on my arm,--see them?
21635Was it a bitter disappointment?"
21635Was it a masterpiece, Connie?"
21635Was it a trick between her and Fairy?
21635Was n''t it dear of the Ladies''Aid to give you that dress for your birthday?
21635Was the conference good?
21635Was there any mail to- day?"
21635Was yours?"
21635We were playing with George Castle and Fritzie Zale.--Is it sticking out any place?"
21635We''ll take any kind of punishment, but keep it dark, wo n''t you?
21635Well, what do you know about that?"
21635What are you going to do with it now?"
21635What are you talking about?"
21635What business had he on the ice when he had a date--""Ready?"
21635What do you reckon I came down here for?
21635What do you think about it?"
21635What for?
21635What happened?
21635What in the world are you going to do with it all, anyhow?
21635What in the world did she mean?
21635What kind of poetry?
21635What shall I call you now?
21635What was it you tried to do for me?"
21635What would Prudence say?"
21635What''ll we tell the professor?"
21635What''s the joke now?"
21635What''s the object?
21635What''s yours?"
21635What?"
21635Whatever have you been doing to yourself overnight?"
21635Whatever made me think of such a stupid trick as that?"
21635When did you decide?"
21635When he only continued frowning at the letter in his hand, Carol spoke up brightly,"Yes, is n''t it?"
21635When you have finished it, give it to me, will you?
21635Whenever you find anything like that, Connie, will you bring it to me?
21635Where did it come from?"
21635Where did you get it?"
21635Where will we live now, father?"
21635Where''s my hat, Lark?
21635Where''s that other slipper?
21635Which do you prefer, Lark?"
21635Who''s the laugh on now?
21635Why do n''t you go and rave to her?"
21635Why do you do it?
21635Why would n''t he like it?
21635Why?"
21635Why?"
21635Will you do that much for us?"
21635Will you do your best?"
21635Wo n''t he, Connie?"
21635Would n''t I be a peach?"
21635Would you ever believe those twins are past fifteen, and nearly through their junior year?
21635Yes, they were leaving, but whither were they bound?
21635You ca n''t be married without Carol, can you?"
21635You have your hair fixed a new way, have n''t you?"
21635You love me, do n''t you?
21635You must arrange your hair in the most_ Ladies''Home Journal_ style, and--""What are you going to wear?"
21635You think they''ll be back soon, do you?"
21635You were there Tuesday, were n''t you?"
21635You wo n''t be cold?"
21635You wo n''t mind that, will you, Carol?"
21635You wo n''t pass it around for the family to laugh at, will you?"
21635You wo n''t then, will you?"
21635You would come up here to tease us, would you?
21635You would n''t say a word to his taking girls home from things, would you?"
21635You''ll be good, and help, wo n''t you?"
21635You''ll come to me, wo n''t you?"
21635You''ll forgive me this once, wo n''t you?
21635You''ll stay for luncheon with me, wo n''t you?
21635You''re sure you''ll treat him nicely?"
21635You''re the one with the literary longings, are n''t you?"
21635You-- you''re late, are n''t you?
5632''A poor presentment, You will say we give; But cry you mercy, Sirs, and''?
5632Afraid? 5632 Ah?
5632Ah? 5632 Ai n''t I as good as he?"
5632Ai n''t goin''in?
5632Ai n''t he a beauty, though?
5632All out?
5632And he wo n''t come again?
5632And how Ben''s putty was everlastingly tumbling out? 5632 And now to come parading her attentions upon me, it"--"Who-- who?"
5632And pray what is it?
5632And so you wanted me, did you, dear?
5632And the door will open, and I''ll have Mamsie and dear Grandpapa?
5632And the other is a woman?
5632And we ought to do something to celebrate,said Polly,"at least do n''t you think so?"
5632And what would the poor people here do without him?
5632And who is he?
5632And why may I not present a doll to Phronsie Pepper, if I care to, pray tell?
5632And why not, pray?
5632And you would n''t let her?
5632Anything I can help you about?
5632Are n''t you glad now that you did n''t find out about the secret?
5632Are the persons men?
5632Are they on sale yet?
5632Are you glad?
5632Are you going to give a dinner?
5632Are you going to have a good- by party?
5632Are you hurt?
5632Are you ready?
5632Are you really and truly very glad, Polly?
5632Are you willing, Ben?
5632Are you, Pet? 5632 Auntie, do you know?"
5632Bad news?
5632Beebe- Beebe, and who is he, pray?
5632Beg your pardon,he said awkwardly, pulling open the door,"ai n''t you goin''to ride back?"
5632Better?
5632Bring Hortense-- where is that girl?
5632But I shall ask her if she is willing to do it as a favor, Mrs. Chatterton; you quite understand that, of course?
5632But I tell you it''s true,declared Van,"is n''t it, Percy?"
5632But how about Joel and Phronsie?
5632But whatever in the world do you want that trash for?
5632But you?
5632Ca n''t I be a Princess unless you sew up that purple paper?
5632Ca n''t I bring you some salad?
5632Ca n''t we buy them some children?
5632Ca n''t we have some of those boys up from the Orphan Asylum?
5632Compliment?
5632Could you, Mr. Alstyne, give that to some one else? 5632 Cousin Horatio, do you keep a menagerie, or a well- ordered house, I beg to inquire?"
5632Crying?
5632Dat''s my own hair,said Candace, pointing to the doll''s head with pride,"so I know it''s good; an''ai n''t dat mouf pretty?"
5632Dicky, would you like to have a secret?
5632Did Papa- Doctor say so?
5632Did n''t I say I wanted her?
5632Did n''t Mrs. Chatterton save my life,he exploded,"when the real burglar was going for me?
5632Did you cut that out?
5632Did you ever see such a tea- party as you and I''ll have?
5632Did you get my letter?
5632Did you tell Polly?
5632Did you, now?
5632Die? 5632 Do I look just as I did when papa went away six months ago, Dicky?"
5632Do I look nicely?
5632Do n''t I know it?
5632Do n''t I know it?
5632Do n''t cry,said the little doctor,"and what''s the matter?"
5632Do n''t they?
5632Do n''t want to go back?
5632Do n''t you believe we''d better put it off till some other night?
5632Do n''t you see we are so much the richer, Phronsie? 5632 Do n''t you see,"said Polly, sitting down on the floor and cuddling up his head in her lap,"that Joel is really all right now?
5632Do tell me, do n''t you think they will find Percy?
5632Do we act as if we had been talked over?
5632Do you know, Mrs. Chatterton, gray stuffs are to be worn more than ever this spring?
5632Do you like it, Polly?
5632Do you mean to say that I could n''t have handled the burglar?
5632Do you really wish to go back to school, and put your mind on your books? 5632 Do you remember how you would carry the red- topped shoes home with you, Phronsie?"
5632Do you remember when the old stove used to plague you, Polly?
5632Do you suppose I''d pound a visitor?
5632Do you suppose it, Polly?
5632Do you think Sarah''ll ever bring that apple?
5632Do you understand,presently began Mrs. Chatterton, fastening her cold blue eyes upon her,"what your position is in this house?
5632Do you want it, Grandpapa?
5632Do you want us all to go out, Phronsie?
5632Do you want us to take this to Phronsie?
5632Do you, Dick?
5632Do you?
5632Does she?
5632Does the lady like it?
5632Does your head ache often at school, Joel?
5632Fight?
5632Funny?
5632Go out and listen, Percy, will you?
5632Grandpapa,she said at last slowly,"I think I''d rather have the first pie, I really would, Grandpapa, may I?"
5632Has Jasper got through reading? 5632 Has n''t she any home?"
5632Has she been in here?
5632Has she come back-- what brought her, pray tell, so soon?
5632Has she gone?
5632Has the mouse gone?
5632Have I, sir?
5632Have n''t I told you that you will help your mother only by not telling her?
5632Have they? 5632 Have you any more raisins to give us, Grandma?"
5632Have you ever had a doll?
5632He is quite well, is n''t he?
5632Here, my good fellow,to Mr. Tisbett,"you say it''s all comfortable in there for them?"
5632Hey, my pet?
5632Hey-- what''s this?
5632Hey?
5632Hey?
5632Home? 5632 How can you when Phronsie is getting better?
5632How d''ye, boys?
5632How do you know we wo n''t?
5632How do you like it, Clare and Bensie?
5632How in the world do you make the thing roll out straight? 5632 How many dolls are there to refurbish before to- morrow?"
5632How would you like to learn how to take care of yourself when you are a big girl?
5632How-- how?
5632I know Phronsie wants a story; do n''t you, Phronsie?
5632I mean, made them want to go to England sooner, do n''t you, mamma?
5632I shall not tell,Mrs. Chatterton was saying to herself in the other room;"what good could it do?
5632I suppose you want me to cure that leg of yours, and make it as good as the other one, do n''t you?
5632I want to go and see dear good Mr. Beebe,she said presently,"and nice Mrs. Beebe, can I, Mamsie?"
5632I''m not tired,said Polly, not daring to ask"Is she better?"
5632Is Dicky all right?
5632Is Phronsie ready to come home?
5632Is he all right?
5632Is he-- is he-- is he?
5632Is it a new dog?
5632Is it possible?
5632Is it really funny?
5632Is n''t Dr. Fisher lovely?
5632Is n''t he a fine old chap? 5632 Is n''t it lovely,"cried Mrs. Whitney,"to have a boy who is beginning to find his lungs?"
5632Is n''t she a goose?
5632Is n''t that splendid? 5632 Is n''t there anything else I can do, Mamsie?"
5632Is she dead?
5632Is that all?
5632Is that all?
5632Is that any better?
5632Is that your way of making up?
5632Is the lace going on all around the bottom?
5632It''s almost done, is n''t it, child?
5632It''s going to snow to- morrow, I think,observed Jasper, squinting up at the leaden sky,"is n''t it, father?"
5632It''s only yesterday since you took me to drive, Dr. Fisher, and you gave me my stove-- is it?
5632It''s''stay,''is n''t it, father?
5632Jasper, wo n''t she be delighted?
5632Jasper, would n''t you like to see Joel''s eyes when Aunt Whitney leads him into the private box?
5632Jefferson? 5632 Joel,"exclaimed Jasper suddenly, clapping him on the shoulder,"I''m going round to the gymnasium; want to go with me?"
5632Keep still, will you?
5632Leave your fingers off from it, ca n''t you?
5632Madame,exclaimed Hortense breathlessly, meeting her within the door,"de modiste will not send de gown; you must"--"Will not send it?"
5632Mamma,he said at last,"is n''t it good that God did n''t give boys and girls to Mr. Duyckink?
5632Mamsie is always right, is n''t she, Jasper?
5632Mamsie, do n''t you think she ought to have a shawl on?
5632Mamsie, do you suppose his head aches?
5632Marian,said old Mr. King, putting his head in at the door of her little writing- room,"ca n''t you get her comfortably out of the way this morning?
5632May I bring Elsie Fay? 5632 May I just stretch a wee little bit, Polly,"she asked timidly,"before you pin it up?
5632May I read some more?
5632May I?
5632May we-- may we?
5632Miss Mary Pepper?
5632Miss Mary Pepper?
5632Miss Mary,said the maid, interrupting,"what do you mean?
5632Mother Pepper? 5632 Mrs. Chatterton, have you seen him?"
5632Must a person keep a promise?
5632Must they yet, Grandpapa?
5632My neck aches, and my side, and my head,said Mrs. Chatterton irritably;"why do you not do as I bid you?"
5632Never had one?
5632Never?
5632Nicely?
5632No, no,said Van;"it''ll be good for him, and knock the other thing out of his head, do n''t you see, Percy?
5632Not your pie?
5632Now do you want her to stay?
5632Now is n''t that fine, Phronsie?
5632Now what is it all about? 5632 Now what is to be done about it?"
5632Now where shall I get it, and where shall I put it when I do have it?
5632Now would you like oysters?
5632Now, Clare, you must remember not to give such a shriek when you go on, must n''t he, Jappy? 5632 Now, Phronsie, what do you suppose we are to do next?"
5632One of the children that your kindness received in this house?
5632Only peg away when I have the mind?
5632PHRONSIE GIVING AWAY HER DOLLS, MAMSIE?
5632Percy,said Van,"come out in the hall, will you?"
5632Phronsie is coming downstairs to- morrow, is n''t she?
5632Phronsie, are you sure you are warm enough?
5632Phronsie, it''s all very funny, is n''t it?
5632Phronsie, wo n''t this be perfectly lovely? 5632 Phronsie,"said Jasper, as the sound of the two voices could be heard in Mother Fisher''s room,"do n''t you want to come into my den?
5632Phronsie,said Jasper, bending to speak into her ear,"do you know you are making Polly feel very unhappy?
5632Playing games, hey?
5632Polly wants something, first; what is it, Joel?
5632Polly, did I ever have anything but make- believe in the little brown house; ever, Polly?
5632Polly, speak to her,he cried in despair;"where is she?
5632Polly, will you?
5632Polly,said Alexia in a stage whisper, and jumping up as Jencks disappeared, to run over to the row,"do you suppose they are dolls?"
5632Pretty, are n''t they?
5632Right away?
5632Say, Percy Whitney?
5632Say, Polly, do n''t stay away a whole year, will you?
5632Say, Polly,cried another girl,"do n''t you have to take a lot of pills and stuff, now that Dr. Fisher is your father?"
5632Say, my girl?
5632Shall I get you an ice, Miss Polly?
5632Shall I, Candace?
5632She does n''t stay in this house, does she, Jasper?
5632She''s paid to take care of me; what right has she to think of anything else?
5632So does any one who does a kind act,replied Mrs. Pepper, wiping her eyes;"well, sir, now how shall we manage about going back?"
5632So you always bought your new shoes of the Beebes?
5632So you are intending to honor me, are you?
5632Still unconscious-- Would no one ever come near her but this detestable maid, with her still more detestable news?
5632Tell them? 5632 That heavy plate?"
5632The Dickens she did,exclaimed the old gentleman;"so she has had a last word with you, has she?
5632The flowers were pretty, but the cake was heavy, do n''t you remember?
5632The present may be well enough; though I should think existence with that low, underbred family here, would be a?
5632The rest of the family are afflicted in the same way, are n''t they?
5632Then I think we''ll decide now to ask him,said Polly,"do n''t you, Jasper?"
5632There, now, my boy, how''s that?
5632There, will you stay down?
5632There,he said, standing up straight,"lie there, will you?"
5632These four days will give you strength for your''exams,''wo n''t they, Joe?
5632Tie me up?
5632To be sure,exclaimed Jasper, looking around,"where is the Princess''s page?"
5632To see you?
5632Took it twice?
5632Well enough,said Joel,"but why did n''t you make more of it?
5632Well, Phronsie, you love Dr. Fisher, do n''t you?
5632Well, and I did n''t when I said so, but circumstances are changed now-- come, guess quickly, some one?
5632Well, and if I may ask, what brought you now, Eunice?
5632Well, and what are you thinking of, pray tell?
5632Well, is the important conference over?
5632Well, sir, how did you like it?
5632Well, so Dick rolled off?
5632Well, we have had a happy time together, have n''t we? 5632 Well, well, dear, what is it?"
5632Well, what are their names? 5632 Well, what is it?"
5632Well, what would you do, Polly child, to show the youngsters we''re proud of them, and glad to get them back-- hey?
5632Well, who is she?
5632Whar''s little Miss?
5632What are you doing, Phronsie?
5632What are you here for?
5632What could you get her,cried Mr. Whitney,"in the way of a doll?
5632What did he want Town Talk for?
5632What did she say?
5632What do you mean?
5632What do you suppose he''s doing?
5632What do you want?
5632What else?
5632What for?
5632What girls?
5632What have you got, Dick?
5632What in the world are you firing at?
5632What is Dr. Fisher going to do?
5632What is a pick- pocket?
5632What is it, Joe?
5632What is it, Polly? 5632 What is it, Polly?"
5632What is it, pray, since you understand it so well?
5632What is it? 5632 What is it?"
5632What is the matter?
5632What is toding?
5632What next, Polly? 5632 What were they, pray tell?
5632What''s poetic license?
5632What''s the fun down there now?
5632What''s the matter?
5632What''s the trouble up there?
5632What''s up?
5632What, what?
5632What? 5632 What?"
5632What?
5632When I grow a big girl, will anybody want me to do those things that you are going to teach me?
5632When?
5632Where are you going?
5632Where are you, Dick?
5632Where can she be? 5632 Where have you been, Polly?"
5632Where is it?
5632Where is she?
5632Where is the girl? 5632 Where''s Jasper?"
5632Where''s Phronsie?
5632Where''s Phronsie?
5632Where''s Polly?
5632Where?
5632Who cares?
5632Who do you think is going abroad with us?
5632Who is he?
5632Who is she?
5632Who was steering?
5632Who, mamma?
5632Who-- Polly?
5632Who-- who? 5632 Who?"
5632Who?
5632Who?
5632Who?
5632Why did n''t he speak? 5632 Why did n''t you tell me, Phronsie,"asked the old gentleman a bit reproachfully as they reached the top step,"how it was, dear?
5632Why did n''t you tell us before that it was he?
5632Why not say so?
5632Why should any one else interfere in the matter?
5632Why, what does Grandpapa say?
5632Why, where is Phronsie?
5632Why? 5632 Will you allow me?"
5632Will you come?
5632Will you let her stay, Grandpapa-- will you?
5632Will you send her back as soon as possible?
5632Will you?
5632Wo n''t Phronsie be delighted when she hears it talk?
5632Wo n''t that be nice, Phronsie?
5632Would it be so very wrong to open one box, and just relieve our suspense? 5632 Would n''t I mamma?"
5632Yes, of course; but after that, what shall I do?
5632Yet what shall I give her if I do n''t buy a doll?
5632You always tell her everything, do you, Ben?
5632You do n''t mean me, Joey?
5632You do n''t think they will, Grandpapa dear, do you? 5632 You want Mother Pepper too, I presume?"
5632You''re not hurt anywhere else, are you, Joey?
5632You''re sure you wo n''t let me go?
5632You''ve had a good time?
5632You''ve often wanted to have a cry out?
5632Your poor head, does it ache?
563212 New Work for Polly 13 A Piece of News 14 Mamsie''s Wedding 15 Mrs. Chatterton Has a New Plan 16 Where Is Phronsie?
5632Almost, have n''t I?"
5632Alstyne?"
5632And dropping her fingers quickly and turning away from the glass, she exclaimed,"How dare you, Hortense, come in without knocking?"
5632And everything turned dark before her eyes-- Was Phronsie dead?
5632And he''ll bring his funny old gig, wo n''t he, and Ill drive sometimes, I suppose?"
5632And is that Phronsie?
5632And now, will you kiss me, child?"
5632And so I''m going to ask you both to get me something to eat, will you?"
5632And what is a grinder, please?"
5632And where is he, pray?"
5632Anybody else in favor of the Peppers?"
5632As Polly did not answer, the question was repeated very sharply:"Do you understand what your position is in this house?"
5632But he''s a beauty, ai n''t he, though?"
5632But how?
5632But what was the use of a fine manner when there was nobody but a little back- country maiden to see it?
5632Ca n''t some one think of one?"
5632Call Hortense, will you?"
5632Can you, Jasper?
5632Chatterton?"
5632Chatterton?"
5632Chatterton?"
5632Dear me, where are my books?"
5632Did n''t Grandpapa help you just one teeny bit to make the legs and the hands?"
5632Did you ever think of that, Polly?"
5632Do n''t you hear them talking in the library?"
5632Do n''t you see?
5632Do n''t you suppose something will happen to take her away?"
5632Do n''t you understand?"
5632Do n''t you want to take them up to the playroom and distribute the dolls?"
5632Do you know I love you very much, Jefferson, you''re so very good to me?"
5632Do you know what patience means?"
5632Do you suppose papa will be always going to Europe then?"
5632Do you think she will like it, Polly?"
5632Do you want me to tell you how?"
5632Do, Polly, will you?"
5632Does n''t she fight with everybody?"
5632Dr. Fisher could not for his life, refrain from asking curiously, as he did as requested,"Been having a pull at the books, eh, Joe?"
5632Find some description of tea gowns, ca n''t you?
5632Has she, Jane?"
5632Have they no sense, to carry on like this?"
5632Henderson?"
5632Here, ca n''t you be a little more careful to keep the road?"
5632How can I ever teach it, if I do n''t go, pray tell?"
5632How d''ye do, Thomas?"
5632How''s the leg, Dicky?"
5632I believe she''s Mrs. Dr. Fisher, is n''t she?"
5632I suppose you have heard the trouble at the Kings?
5632I supposed the double ripper all right; did n''t you, Ben?"
5632Is it animal, vegetable or mineral, Jasper?"
5632Is n''t anybody smart enough to guess them?
5632Is n''t that so, Doctor?"
5632Is that all you brought me up here to say?"
5632It does n''t look the same way, do n''t you see?"
5632It''s too bad, is n''t it, that Dick ca n''t be here to- day to rehearse his part?"
5632Jasper as wildly reminiscent now as the others, for had n''t he almost as good as lived at the little brown house, pray tell?
5632Joel, are you worse?"
5632Just a very little bit?"
5632Just one, Polly?"
5632Just think, child, whatever in the world would Grandpapa do, or any of us, pray tell?"
5632Mamma, wo n''t you stop them?"
5632Mamsie, is n''t dear Mr. King just the dearest dear, to give all this to the boys?
5632Mamsie,"and she rushed over to her,"can we have a baking time to- morrow, just as we used to in the old days?
5632Mamsie,"she threw down the brush and ran over to put her head in the closet,"where did she go?"
5632May I, Polly?"
5632Not a thing, sir, do you hear?"
5632Now how shall we manage them?"
5632Now that point''s settled about Phronsie''s party, wo n''t you all go out?
5632Now what comes next, Phronsie?"
5632Now what do you suppose she has for you, Phronsie?"
5632Now who are they?"
5632Now, then, Jasper, is Jencks ready with the lantern?"
5632Now, why can not I read a bit?"
5632Obey?
5632Oh, Phronsie dear, so you went down to bid Grandpapa good- night, did you?"
5632Pepper?"
5632Phronsie was about to ask,"Why does not Hortense go up for it?"
5632Polly, why do n''t you say something?"
5632Rather different, is n''t it, old fellow, from the time when I used to race over from Hingham with Prince at my heels?"
5632Rather have the first pie?"
5632Say, did n''t she?"
5632She knew he wanted her to try a new duet he had gone down town to purchase; but how could she play with such a storm in her heart?
5632She put up her eyeglass at the intrusion and murmured"Ah?"
5632Should she dare to scream?
5632Stay, where is Joel?"
5632Suppose we had n''t a Father Fisher who was a doctor, what should we do then?"
5632The drama, pure and simple, is forgot In tugging in the moral''"?
5632Then I guess she will be glad, do n''t you?"
5632Upstairs Polly was at work with happy fingers, Alexia across the room, asking every third minute,"Polly, how does it go?
5632Was all the world arrayed against her, to take up with those hateful interlopers in her cousin''s home?
5632Was any other ever so bright and beautiful?
5632Was this the first meeting with the girls to which she had looked forward so long?
5632We have a princess, to be sure''"?
5632Well, and how about the wonderful play on the twenty- first?
5632Well, how do you like the plan?"
5632Well, it''s too bad about Phronsie''s party, is n''t it?"
5632Well, what next do you propose to do, Polly?"
5632Were not two cases of blankets and household comforts safely packed away in the luggage car?
5632What are you talking about?
5632What in the world could you do, Polly?
5632What news?"
5632What next, Polly?"
5632What shall we do?"
5632What was it all about, Polly?"
5632What''s a bit of tissue paper to the glory of being a Princess?"
5632What''s next, Jap?"
5632Where else is she, if she has n''t run away, pray tell?"
5632Why are n''t you at the club spread?"
5632Why could n''t Mr. Marks be sick longer than that, if he was going to be sick at all, pray?"
5632Why do n''t you ask questions about my secret?"
5632Why does n''t Grandpapa come?"
5632Why wo n''t this other one behave, and fall into a pretty curve, I wonder?"
5632Why, it''s what I''ve been studying and working for, and how else do you suppose I can ever repay dear Grandpapa for helping me?"
5632Why, what would she ever do without you?
5632Why-- why could n''t I have remembered it?"
5632Will it break up your study much?"
5632Will no one come to say she is better?"
5632Will no one guess?"
5632Will your mother ever forgive me, Polly?"
5632Would you like Dr. Fisher for a father?"
5632XVI WHERE IS PHRONSIE?
5632XXII JOEL"Hate school?"
5632You are sure Mr. King has n''t persuaded you to like it?"
5632You get it, will you, Hannah?"
5632You know you wo n''t fight, and I wo n''t again; we both said so a little while back; so what''s the good of holding out now?"
5632You must n''t believe him, Polly, You wo n''t, will you?"
5632You should n''t fly into such rages; they wear on one fearfully; and especially for a stranger too, and against your own people-- how can you?"
5632You wo n''t be frightened, will you, pet, at those dear, sweet old dragons?"
5632are they for me?"
5632asked Alexia; the uncomfortable walk might be enlivened by a bit of stray gossip;"what is it, Polly?
5632asked Phronsie,"a really and truly promise, Grandpapa?"
5632asked Polly,"or any children?"
5632better, is she?"
5632bless my soul, what should I want to marry for at my time of life?
5632called Joel, edging up,"why do n''t you talk to me?"
5632called Mr. Tisbett, to his smoking horses, and leaning over, he cried,"What''s the matter in there?"
5632could you get me a copy of"Town Talk?"
5632cried Dick dolefully,"what''s the reason we must wait a whole week, pray tell?"
5632cried Dick in a spasm of excitement,"coming right straight away, mamma?"
5632cried Dick, turning around in his chair, and regarding her enviously,"all alone by yourself?
5632cried Jasper, putting his head in the doorway,"what good fun is going on?
5632cried Joel with curiosity;"some more mysteries?
5632cried Joel, prancing out of the car first, and"How d''ye do, Polly?"
5632cried Phronsie suddenly, and lifting her head, she fastened her brown eyes on the face above her,"was n''t Mamsie''s birthday cake good?"
5632cried Polly, and then away they rushed again into"Oh, do n''t you remember this, and you have n''t forgotten that?"
5632cried Polly, burrowing deeper within the pillow folds,"why are n''t pleasant things best to do?
5632cried Polly, convulsively clinging to her,"are you really here, and is Dicky home?"
5632cried Van, rushing over the flat stone, and past Mrs. Pepper,"where''s Joel?
5632dear Grandpapa, will Mrs. Chatterton die?"
5632demanded Joel belligerently, and advancing on Percy,"say?
5632did you fall?"
5632do n''t you see it''s only Percy and Van?"
5632do n''t you see what it will all tend to?"
5632do you suppose she will?"
5632exclaimed Alexia, as a turn in the drive brought the two figures in view of the music- room windows,"did you ever see such a sight in your life?
5632exclaimed Mr. King sharply, for his surprise was too great to allow of composure,"who has been putting this idea into your head?
5632exclaimed Mrs. Chatterton angrily,"and pray how long since your thoughts have been so valuable?"
5632exclaimed Polly, seizing the doll, and skillfully evading the question,"what a lovely dress-- and the apron is a dear"--"Ai n''t it?"
5632exclaimed the cook, shutting up one eye to look through the other in a spasm of delight at an imaginary pie;"so it''s for Miss Mary, is it?"
5632gone for the water?
5632have they?"
5632he called sharply,"here, where are you?"
5632he exclaimed;"are these tall boys and girls the five little Peppers?
5632he screamed,"do n''t you see, Thomas?"
5632how can you?"
5632how could they?
5632how could you?"
5632how is she?"
5632how many of ye be there?
5632hummed Phronsie;"is n''t that just lovely?"
5632is n''t is possible to be married without sixty- five friends to stare at you?"
5632it was perfectly awful, was n''t it, Dave?"
5632let me be, will you?"
5632said Phronsie, flying off from the lovely corner, to straighten out again into the dignity required;"not when they are little girls, Polly?"
5632said the boy;"is this right, Alexia?"
5632she begged;"please do tell me, sir?"
5632she cried in a tremor of delight,"and will you really have it on the table, and cut it with Aunt Whitney''s big silver knife?"
5632she said slowly at last,"well, what do you want to say?
5632there is so much,"said Polly despairingly, clasping her hands,"we should n''t get through if we talked ten years, should we, Ben?
5632those lovely little lace arrangements,"said Mrs. Whitney hastily;"do n''t you know how exquisite they are at Pinaud''s?"
5632turning to him,"why could n''t we have the club next week, Wednesday night?"
5632well, did you ever think that-- that your mother might possibly marry again?"
5632what do you mean?"
5632what has happened?"
5632what have I done?"
5632what is it, dear?"
5632what is it?
5632what is it?"
5632what is the matter with Joey?"
5632what is the matter, Polly?"
5632what shall we do, sir?"
5632what shall we do?"
5632what you goin''that way for?"
5632where have you been, Polly Pepper,"said Mr. King, settling his eyeglass to regard her closely,"not to hear the uproar in this house?
5632where''d you get that, and where are you going?"
5632where''s Grandpapa?"
5632where''s Joel?"
5632where?"
5632whispered Polly, back again,"just look at Mrs. Chatterton''s face, and at poor Phronsie''s; ca n''t you do something, Jasper?"
5632who wants to hear about them?"
5632who?"
5632will she die?"
5632will you play that concerto, the one you played when Mary Gibbs was here at tea last week?
5632wo n''t it be entrancing to- night?"
5632you do suppose it will be good, do n''t you?"
5632you would n''t quite do that?"
