9081Wo n''t your Professor give you a holiday from-- is it microbes you study?
9081Women would be less beautiful if they proposed?
9081Would n''t think it was Cadge, would you?
9081Would seem so, would n''t it?
9081Ye''ll take good care of Helen''Lizy?
9081Ye''ll take good care of her?
9081Yes, I''m afraid I owe a lot of money, but must we-- just to- night?
9081Yes; what can you do?
9081You agree vit''me?
9081You are friendt of Mees Veensheep?
9081You are really in Judge Baker''s office? 9081 You ca n''t stay among these-- these strangers, can you?"
9081You did n''t know me, John; did you?
9081You do n''t wish me to tell that which is not?
9081You do not at the present time believe in sentiment?
9081You find yourself mistaken?
9081You in New York? 9081 You know me to- day?"
9081You know that Uncle--"You will not?
9081You say Winship is around at your place?
9081You will not go away?
9081You will not then accuse me of overstatement?
9081You wo n''t mind my keeping right on?
9081You''ll have Judge Baker and Hynes, of course; and that-- what''s the name of that shy young man who''s just gone? 9081 You''re alone here?"
9081You''re living right on Union Square?
9081You''ve been out of town, have n''t you?
9081You-- you think so?
9081You_ are_ well?
9081_ I_ need_ you_?
9081''Miss Kitty, why''d ye fetch me''long?''
9081''Miss Winship,''you said-- I had sat near the door and was already in the entry--''may I see you home?''
9081''Why''d ye fetch me''long?''
9081--Another voice--"How can she?
9081--She had spied the painting.--"It''s like you, rather; but-- doesn''t he charge a fortune?"
908118?"
9081A minute later Clesta ushered in the man who was to take the trunks, and when I had given him his directions, I asked:--"Shall we go, Nelly?"
9081A second time piping,"What name, Sir?"
9081A woman whom all women must hate for her loveliness?
9081A young lady looks forward with pleasure, I fancy, to release from--""Is the amoeba a-- some horrid bug, I suppose?"
9081Adjusting her hat before a glass, Kitty hummed with a voice that tried not quaver:--"Mirror, mirror on the wall, Am I most beautiful of all?
9081Ah,--would you walk on?"
9081Ai n''t ye got no sense?
9081All packed and ready for a start, ai n''t ye?
9081Am I really the only girl that''s jealous of you?"
9081An''you will try my mobe?
9081And I want to tell you-- Helen''s sorry we invited the General, but she wo n''t come, so that''s no matter; but the Bakers-- do they like him?"
9081And all the things for the flat--""Furniture?"
9081And did she tell you that Mrs. Sloane Schuyler begged to have her presented?
9081And even from the practical standpoint-- you would n''t like to have your lawbooks sold, would you?
9081And how not?
9081And if I refused?
9081And if she''s Cinderella, ca n''t we have a peep at the fairy godmother?
9081And it is a Lord.--See the hand- out he gave me for last Sunday-- full- page interview:''Earl of Strathay Discusses American Society?''
9081And the problem:"How high can we climb?"
9081And this theatrical Napoleon, part of whose business is the appraisement of beauty-- did he suspect that mine was less than perfect?
9081And what important scheme has she in mind?"
9081And what-- now-- shall I say to him?
9081And when do the school days end?
9081And when may that be?
9081And why did n''t he come to us afterwards, as John did?
9081And why is the letter box always full of duns?
9081And why not?
9081And you had his picture--""The postman''s?"
9081And you, Miss Winship?"
9081And-- perhaps Helen has written to you of Kitty Reid?"
9081Any adventures, Goldilocks?"
9081Are men so different?
9081Are n''t newspapers funny?"
9081Are n''t they grand people?"
9081Are they jealous?
9081Are you interested in zoology?
9081Are you sick of towns and men?
9081Are you suffering from the errors of others?
9081Are you the John Burke I''ve heard so much about?
9081Are you very sure that you have chosen the wisest part?
9081As for the papers, I wo n''t have one in the house--""Except the_ Evening Post_?"
9081At any other time the news would have been a fresh calamity-- for how can I pay them, or how get rid of them without paying?
9081At the dinner table, as my father was tucking his napkin under his chin, he said:"Well, Nelly, w''at was Mr. Stoddard''s text?"
9081Been studying too hard?"
9081Below the name was scrawled:"P. P. C.""It was found pinned to Miss Reid''s bedspread,"he said;"is that Miss Winship''s handwriting?"
9081Big wedding, wo n''t it be?
9081Brought an apron?
9081But I said no school''s most done and she''ll be coming home and how can I leave?
9081But can no man help seeming to care for me-- help caring while he is with me?
9081But could there be any doubt of the proper reply?
9081But did you mean it?
9081But have n''t you had reporters here-- regiments?
9081But how can Helen expect pasty girls like Ann Fredericks-- out last fall and already touching up-- to forgive her beauty?
9081But how could I believe myself awake or sane?
9081But how to avoid them?
9081But now they begin to----""Then New York has n''t always agreed vit''you?
9081But now we are n''t going to worry one little worry, are we?
9081But of what?
9081But perfectly beautiful?
9081But was ever a question more absurd?
9081But what have you been doing to yourself?
9081But when I would have drawn her to me, she stepped back in lovely confusion, with a fluttered question:--"How long have you been here, John?"
9081But why did n''t you-- why ca n''t you give us a whack at it?"
9081But you''re not writing me up, Cadge?"
9081But-- ah-- is the question imminent?
9081But-- not to print, now-- what_ are_ you going to do with His Lordship?
9081By the way, does your father know about all this?"
9081Ca n''t I eat while I''m being married?"
9081Ca n''t I persuade you to-- aw-- take a spin some day?
9081Ca n''t stand for the headlines?
9081Ca n''t ye-- seems as if ye better stop alon''of us an''study home, same''s you used to?
9081Ca n''t you let her off?"
9081Ca n''t you let me into the secret?
9081Ca n''t you pay your bills?
9081Cadge, dear, did nobody but you see me?"
9081Cadge, why do n''t you study law?"
9081Can he have gone already?
9081Can you cook a little?
9081Can you forgive me?"
9081Can you wash dishes, or not mind if they''re not washed?
9081Catch the idea?
9081Clesta,--where''s that imp?"
9081Confused by lips that lied and eyes that confessed, I stammered:--"Going-- not going away?
9081Could I let him shoulder the responsibility of concealment?
9081Could not a strong woman compel love?
9081Could she have reckoned upon weaning me from him by a display of his awkwardness?
9081Could there have come to my thought some hope of finding rest from sorrow in the leading of another mind?
9081Could you not, if you are determined not to come home to us, seek less expensive apartments?
9081Could--_could_ Mr. Hynes have gone to the Opera just because he had heard that I would be there?
9081Dance with John-- there?
9081Did I ever doubt my love until she claimed it five days ago with such confidence in my loyalty?
9081Did I sing well?"
9081Did ever such a ridiculous thing, such a wonderful, glorious thing, such a perfectly awful thing, happen to any other girl that ever lived?
9081Did he guess-- about Ned?
9081Did n''t he love me?
9081Did n''t you get my letter?
9081Did you know that?"
9081Did you plan to surprise me?"
9081Did you say married?
9081Distressed?
9081Do I really look well to- night?
9081Do n''t New York agree with ye, Sissy?
9081Do n''t really study at Barnard now, do you?
9081Do n''t you know me?"
9081Do n''t you like Judge Baker?"
9081Do n''t you see?"
9081Do n''t you suppose I could?"
9081Do n''t you think such a man should be free to devote himself to original work?
9081Do you happen to know?"
9081Do you know that?
9081Do you think I care to rob you of your honours?
9081Do you vant triumphs?
9081Do you wonder that I doubted?
9081Does beauty kill love, or do men see beauty only where they love?
9081Does n''t that seem old after the State University?
9081Does the mind exist?"
9081Does your youngest cousin make mud pies with duchesses?
9081Eagerly she interrupted me:--"Oh, is n''t it the worst ever?
9081Eh?
9081Er-- what''s your act?"
9081Even before it came I guessed it was coming; a voice-- it was a man''s-- crying out:--"What is it?
9081Even if I had known-- I had the right to defend myself, had n''t I?
9081Every rag in town''ll have some kind of feature about you next Sunday, and you would n''t ask me to see the_ Star_ beaten?
9081Everything shall be as you wish; but-- you do love me?"
9081Fame?
9081Father_ ca n''t_ refuse to mortgage; why does n''t he write to me?
9081From the topmost gallery a tremendous great voice came bellowing down:--"What--_fool_--said-- that?"
9081Give Milly, who has Ned''s love, my beauty?
9081Greek a little bit?
9081Guess they have, sort o'', eh, Sis; f''om what John''s been writin''?"
9081Had Helen described her in a letter?
9081Had I read about her?
9081Had I seen her picture?
9081Had much study made of him a monomaniac babbling in a dream of absurdities?
9081Had she told Helen, too, that Ned Hynes-- what was he to my betrothed?
9081Happy?
9081Happy?
9081Has any one felt fear for you?
9081Has he true loves among sand stars or jelly fish, or does he confine his affections to sea anemones?"
9081Has t''e beautiful Mees Veensheep no regard for science?"
9081Have n''t I promised?
9081Have n''t you, after all, loved me a little, all the time?"
9081Have you-- what is it?
9081Headache?
9081Helen, what does it mean?"
9081Helen, when did you begin to sing?"
9081Helen--""Have you seen Grant''s tomb?"
9081Honest, Princess?"
9081How are the beastesses''noses and toeses?"
9081How can I write it?
9081How can you?
9081How could Aunt so parade me?
9081How could I chatter nothings when Ned was by my side, smiling down at me so confusedly?
9081How could I forget?
9081How could I have known that he would die?
9081How could I have thought of it?
9081How could I help coming-- after yesterday?
9081How could I muffle myself like a grandmother?
9081How could they turn from me to orange frappà © or salted almonds?
9081How could you, Helen?"
9081How did I chance to see him just at that crisis, when I did n''t know of his presence?
9081How do women dare to ride bicycles?
9081How is it that you are growing so beautiful?
9081How many times have you spoken to me of love?
9081How much can you get?
9081How much money?"
9081How not?
9081How shall I make you understand?"
9081How was it possible for these people to look so quietly, eye to eye, upon the most vitally perfect of living beings?
9081I am biologist, not true?
9081I am not a coward; but what is left?
9081I could think of nothing all the evening but my bills, and at last I was moved to ask him abruptly:--"What can a girl do to get money, Pros.?"
9081I do n''t want nothing hid away f''om me; how come ye livin''in a place like this?"
9081I do not know-- it is not yet tried-- but how ot''ervise?
9081I have no money; they ca n''t make me pay what I have n''t got, can they?
9081I must find my aunt, must tell her-- what?
9081I must leave the den; but where to go?
9081I never see the beat of Helen Lizy;''and I would tell him you ought to go to the State University?"
9081I suppose Pa and Ma would say that was a very wicked bill, now would n''t they, Schoolmaster?"
9081I suppose her half of the common stock is secure?"
9081I tell her you''re awf''ly sensible an''jolly-- lettin''a fellow come like this, now, and talk to you''s jolly, ai n''t it?
9081I wanted to get up and cry out:"Do n''t you people know that this car contains a miracle?"
9081I whispered to one of the aproned girls that had watched the encounter-- students like myself--"that''s an encouraging reception, is n''t it?"
9081I wonder if it was all money, money, that kept him from me-- or was it more than half the fear of beauty?
9081I would n''t do stunts like that, if I never-- you will look out, wo n''t you?"
9081I would n''t go there again except for the lure of promised beauty-- can more loveliness be possible?
9081I would n''t; not for the Klondike?
9081I would n''t; would you, Kitty?"
9081I''d hoard every penny, I planned; I''d walk to save car- fare, practice all economies-- Was n''t that a face at her window?
9081I''m the happiest girl on earth; I''m-- am I really beautiful?"
9081I-- why ca n''t you let me alone?
9081If I wake Kitty, could she help?
9081If I''d missed the boat, I might not have learned the truth until-- when?
9081If Pa and Ma could see me now, would they say their little Nelly''d"filled out well- favoured?"
9081If beauty were cheap, who''d care for it?
9081If he cares so much for me, why does n''t he get me the money I asked for; instead of coming here- on a cattle train?
9081If these marvels can be wrought upon the body, why may not the mind be led toward healing?
9081If you do talk to anybody else, or even see anybody, you''ll let me know, quick?
9081Indeed I had been frightened; yet why should not the world demand to look upon me?
9081Indeed I have not meant to-- to-- Shall I speak to Milly for you?
9081Is it little Nelly Winship who is talking about thousands?
9081Is it the Inquisition?"
9081Is it true that I have longed for beauty more passionately than most women; or is it only that I know myself, not the others?
9081Is it true that-- just at first, you know, of course-- you did n''t know me?"
9081Is it witchcraft?"
9081Is it you?
9081Is it-- fire?"
9081Is n''t it wonderful?
9081Is n''t it, Ned?"
9081Is n''t the Judge the most delightful man?
9081Is she a good teacher?"
9081Is she the Maiden Snow- white-- but no; see her blush-- or the Princess Marvel?
9081Is some one trying to influence your subjective state?"
9081Is-- is Lord Strathay like his pictures?"
9081It is his right to know the truth, and-- what can Ned say while I''m affianced?
9081It was with something like a scream that the two flew at me, crying in one voice:--"Have you_ really_ refused to be one of Peggy''s bridesmaids?
9081It''s ever so much nicer that way, do n''t you think?"
9081Jealous of Milly, with her thin shoulders rising out of her white dress, her colourless eyes and her dull hair dressed like mine with roses?
9081John Burke, why''ve you kept us in the dark these months and months?
9081Just another of Nature''s sorry jests, is n''t it?
9081Just-- did you have music?
9081Kipling''s right; nothing like a banjo, is there?
9081Kitty threw herself upon Cadge, kissing her convulsively, while Mr. Winship persisted:--"Sis was first- rate yist''day; w''at fetched the attack on?"
9081Know what you''d be undertaking, I suppose-- hard work, regular hours, open air, steady habits?
9081Maybe I find for you some use t''at you do n''t expect, eh?
9081Might she, with time and contact with life, have reacted against the virus, or must such loveliness be fatal to what is best in woman?
9081Milly, will two young men answer instead of one old one?"
9081Milly, you should have been there?
9081Mither Burke, you like me''n Efel?"
9081Mr. Burke, do n''t you know from what county of fairyland Helen hails?
9081Mr. Burke, w''y you do n''t like Efel too?"
9081Must I go away-- go away that he may make Milly happy?
9081My face is the same face but-- how can I express it?
9081My love I would cry aloud, but I can not until he speaks, and he can not speak until-- has Milly no pride?
9081Need I look upon her coldly because she had become radiant, compellingly lovely?
9081Nelly, next week it will be a year since our first betrothal; do you remember?
9081New York has agreed vit''her; not so?"
9081No nerves?
9081Not so?
9081Not so?"
9081Not so?"
9081Now do you beliefe me?
9081Now do you trust me?
9081Now that is n''t your class; if$ 8 a week would satisfy you, which it would n''t, do you suppose there''s an office in town that''d have you?
9081Now, Helen, what do_ you_ propose to wear?"
9081Of course I meant to thank him for his silent help the night before, but I asked with a rush of nervous confusion:--"You-- were you there?"
9081Of course you say yes, do n''t you, Helen?"
9081Of what use was it to make me beautiful if you are now to make me unhappy?
9081Of what use would be a mint of money, if I lost my beauty?
9081Oh, Nelly, ca n''t I have your left- off looks?
9081Or Helen''s promise; whose was it?"
9081Or say, Princess; answer the great question:''Does Soap Hurt the Skin?''"
9081Or-- of course your idea''s to star- you got a backer?"
9081Ought I to wear it?"
9081Picking up a slip of paper torn from a letter pad, he asked:--"Is this also Miss Winship''s writing?"
9081Power?
9081Presently he left me, wondering, even as I wonder now: Why do n''t I care for John?
9081Publicity-- an inquest?
9081Riches?
9081School done?
9081See such beauty multiplied by the thousand, the million?
9081Shall I be like that some day?
9081Shall I get you the least little bit of colour, out of a box, Helen?
9081Shall I leave the secret?
9081Shall I turn in a paragraph?
9081Shall we kill the fatted rarebit?"
9081She spoke almost pleadingly, with the same soft clouding of her loveliness that I had seen the day before?
9081Should I stand once more?
9081Show myself?
9081Since when has it been thought necessary to call priest or physician because of a young lady''s growing charm?
9081Sing, Helen, wo n''t you?
9081Sis''ll tell ye I hain''t stented her-- What''s to pay?"
9081Sissy, my poor little Poppet, w''at good to ye is fame; w''at good is all your studyin''?"
9081Smart?
9081Sole possession was to be my reward?
9081Some one on the Avenue?"
9081Some voice far in the depths of my soul warned me that I must check him-- we must wait until I-- he-- Milly--"Sometimes; who does not?
9081Sometimes I think-- do you believe in soul transmigration?"
9081Sometimes, since I have been living with Helen, I have wished more than anything else to find out, What is protoplasm?
9081Speak to me, Sissy-- why do n''t ye?"
9081Stockholders share receipts with you?
9081Stop, ca n''t you?"
9081T''at I shall die unknown, vit''t''e greatest discofery of all time in my hands?
9081That I was the one most hurt there?
9081That her walk is like a lily''s swaying in the wind, her voice is the sweetest music that ever ravished ear, her hair a lure for sunbeams?
9081That she is lovely as the morning?
9081That_ was_ Mrs. Henry?
9081The idea was exaggerated, the hope vain.--Was vain?
9081The last thing I said was:''Shall I tell Morphy you''re coming?''
9081The nose is longer and straighter, the cheeks fuller and fairer, the chin daintier, the neck-- ah, well, why should n''t I be frank?
9081Then in a minute I cried:--"Why, see; how could that have happened?"
9081Then she said:--"Why do n''t you sell a story to some paper-- either something very scientific, or else,''Who''s the Handsomest Man in New York?''
9081There are other debts?"
9081They howled and hammered at the door in most unchristian rage?"
9081Though what was to be gained by waiting?
9081Three months?
9081Tires weigh thirty pounds each; awful lot, ai n''t it?
9081To his challenging question, in which I saw the manner of a teacher with his pupils, I replied:"In your estimation goodness and beauty go together?"
9081To keep faith with John and Milly, should I have shunned him?
9081To keep t''is possession all to yourself vould you deny it to millions of your sisters?"
9081To whom do I go?"
9081V''at do you say?"
9081V''at for I vaste my time vit''you?
9081V''y not hereditary?"
9081Vat is lofe?
9081Vat vould it say to von, t''ink you?
9081Vill you make t''e experiment?
9081W''at''ll I git for ye?
9081W''ich gal is it?"
9081Was I ever an ugly little girl, careless of my appearance, happiest in a torn and dirty dress; and homely, homely, homely?
9081Was I happier when I was like that?
9081Was Uncle Tim right about the little brown partridges?
9081Was she Cadge?
9081Was that strange?
9081Was that wrong?
9081Was that you?"
9081Was the poor man insane?
9081Wat you talkin''''bout now?"
9081We did not guess that the weeks would grow to months, and-- oh, dear, what will he think of me when he gets here?
9081We''ll get-- oh, what shall we-- what shall we get that''ll be good enough for you?"
9081Well, well, how much do you need?"
9081Were you ever an ugly duckling?
9081What can you do?
9081What chance have they while I am present?
9081What concern was it of mine how my photographs had been obtained?
9081What did I care for the spelling of a name or the bald prose about my college course?
9081What did she want?
9081What do I care about earning$ 8 a week-- or$ 80?
9081What does it all mean, Helen?"
9081What does it all mean?"
9081What had changed her voice and burned fever spots in her cheeks?
9081What had he to say to me?
9081What has Ann done, Helen?"
9081What has become of my chum?"
9081What have I done to be so tortured?
9081What if Kitty sometime wins fame by painting my picture, or Cadge by writing of me in her"Recollections?"
9081What is a chaperon for?
9081What is a man, that he should love and not love?
9081What is it?
9081What is this mystery?
9081What name?"
9081What shall I do?
9081What shall I say?"
9081What shall be said of this beautiful woman, for whom men sigh as for the unattainable?
9081What should I do?
9081What sort of a man is he?"
9081What was it he said?
9081What was the mystery?
9081What would he, so fastidious as he was, think of that poster?
9081What would the doctor say?
9081What ye goin''to learn, Sis, if ye should go t''the city?"
9081What''s a Princess to do with such jobs?
9081What''s fame to youth, health, life?
9081What_ will_ the child think of next?"
9081What_ would_ they say to me?
9081When will the-- ah-- when will the paper go to press?"
9081Where can she be?
9081Where could I go?
9081Where could one such as I find refuge?
9081Where do they live?"
9081Where was Meg to- night?
9081Where was Mrs. Marmaduke?
9081Where''ve you been?
9081Where?
9081Whitney?"
9081Who can answer?
