34929But you will not mention it to Ruth or Jim or any of the girls? 34929 But, my beloved Ruth, what have we to do but get ourselves and our belongings into cabs and drive to our hotel?
34929Can you guess whom I represent?
34929Could anybody ever know you and love you? 34929 Dear me, Ruth Drew,"this girl now began in mock tragic tones,"you do n''t suppose that our infant has fallen overboard already, do you?
34929Do I look almost as well as Jean?
34929Do n''t we want you to be happy too, Jack? 34929 Do you expect to live always at Rainbow Lodge, Jack?"
34929Do you think that Olive likes Frank Kent better than anybody else?
34929Do you?
34929Frieda is the star of us all, is n''t she?
34929How on earth did you decide to come? 34929 I wonder if it has ever occurred to you that Frank Kent cared, well, cared more than just an ordinary lot for Olive?
34929If you mean Frank Kent or Captain Madden, why of course I like both of them, do n''t you?
34929Is it that you do not wish more of my society?
34929Jack, let''s go away from Rome in a few days?
34929Jack,he said slowly,"do n''t you know me?
34929Oh, Jim, oh Mr. Colter, why did n''t you tell us you were coming to London? 34929 Please help me up the gang- plank when we go on board, Olive dear?"
34929Ruth and Jim?
34929See here, boss,he began after a moment,"you and I''ve been pretty much on the level with each other_ all the time_, have n''t we?
34929The face of the waters gets a bit tiresome after a while, do n''t you think so?
34929Then why, baby mine, when you came back from dreamland did you not struggle into the hall and find out what had become of your family?
34929They are rather funny, do n''t you think?
34929Well, we are n''t getting them settled very quickly today, are we, Jim?
34929What did she tell you, Olive?
34929What is the use of pretending to be a heroine when it is not true? 34929 Where have you been and what has happened to you?
34929Why be in such a hurry, Frieda mia?
34929Why do n''t you answer me?
34929Would you like me to tell Jack then, Olive dear?
34929Your dislike of foreigners does not include Englishmen, does it, cousin of mine?
34929And afterwards in Rome and the last month since our arrival in England, why have n''t you_ seen_ the change in her?
34929And is n''t he always possessed of the idea that we will be late for things and that unknown catastrophes will overtake us?
34929And only a few moments before had she not secretly hoped to make a favorable impression upon this most interesting of their fellow voyagers?
34929And then, as though she must have sympathy in her enjoyment from some quarter:"Is n''t this storm splendid?
34929And then,"Whatever in the world, Jean, has made you so cross about Captain Madden?
34929And will you make my excuses to Lady Kent at dinner?
34929Are n''t you glad to see me?
34929As he had traveled and spent other seasons in Rome, surely he would be an agreeable guide and help them to see the right things in the right way?
34929At this instant Jean wondered if any one ever really changed in the leading traits of character?
34929Because of her own recent experience why should she be dwelling so much on one subject?
34929Besides, if we are to see enough of Europe to count, this summer, ought we not to be starting out again?"
34929Besides, this morning we are tired and do n''t you see that Ruth, Jean and Olive are deeply engaged in laying out our plan of campaign?
34929Besides, was she not well by this time and the railing of the deck but a few feet away?
34929Besides, was the boy not standing right there by the door?
34929Besides, what answer had she to make to her cousin?
34929Besides, what in the world did they know of him except what he himself had told them?
34929But could Jack forget these things and care for him notwithstanding?
34929But what can have become of her?"
34929But what could she, what should she say?
34929But, please, would you mind if I cried a while?
34929CHAPTER XVIII RELIEF OR REGRET?
34929Could a girl not quite twenty suffer much over an interrupted love affair?
34929Could she actually have felt young enough not a month ago to have entered into such an agreement with all seriousness?
34929Could she ever endure the mother''s acquaintance for the sake of the son''s?
34929Could she have been making a hero in her mind of a man who was no hero at all?
34929Did Jack guess that her education was about to be solemnly taken in hand?
34929Did he know that this appeal would be the surest way to awaken her sympathies?
34929Do n''t you think so yourself, Jean?"
34929Do n''t you think we have had enough of Rome?
34929Do n''t you think, after all, perhaps Olive likes Donald Harmon more than we guess?
34929Do you know these lines of Byron''s in Childe Harold?"
34929Do you think Ralph Merrit has ever been in love with Jean?
34929For had she not once acted as Jim Colter''s upright judge?
34929For how could she ask assistance of people to whom she had been so rude and overbearing but a short time before?
34929For how could she possibly have guessed how her point of view typified that of many American travelers?
34929For, although Jack''s right to sorrow was certainly greater than theirs, until now, had she not been the strongest and most hopeful of them all?
34929Had she not imagined several years ago that Olive liked Frank better than any other young man of their acquaintance?
34929Have n''t you forgiven me after almost three years?
34929He wore a dark blue coat, blue- gray trousers, a white cap and belt, so how could a newcomer have known him to be a member of the Roman garrison?
34929How can a girl ever marry a man twice as old as she is?"
34929How could a little New England girl like you know anything about an accomplished rascal like this fellow Madden?
34929How could they bear the ten unendurable days before their ship reached Gibraltar and the second ten of their return journey to New York?
34929How did Frank Kent happen to come to Rome at this especial time?
34929I am going to ask her what she_ really_ was doing?"
34929I am so anxious to talk to you?"
34929I do n''t want to keep the rest of you waiting, but ca n''t I stay here by myself for a few moments, Ruth?
34929If she could not be found on the ship, what were they to do?
34929If you knew anything against him on shipboard why did n''t you tell me?"
34929Is it Frank Kent who has told you?
34929Is n''t Rome dismal today?
34929Is n''t that the American slang?"
34929Jack''s only present problem was:"Did she care enough?"
34929Moreover, had she not just been called plump before everybody at their table?
34929Nevertheless, Captain Madden was twice Jack''s age, and why should they not be friends?
34929Oh, what on earth shall we do?"
34929One wonders how the man had come to appreciate Jacqueline Ralston''s nature so thoroughly in the few weeks of their acquaintance?
34929Or do you suspect some one of having run away with her?
34929RELIEF OR REGRET?
34929She did not mind his age, for how could he have known all that he did had he been younger?
34929So if Ruth and Jean and Olive and I are weary of Rome and want to go away, do n''t you think it your duty to do what we like?
34929Still, dear, wo n''t you promise me at least not to see Captain Madden again until we have heard from Jim?"
34929THE WEDDING DAY 234 LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS"JACK, DON''T YOU KNOW ME?"
34929Tell me what has happened and where you wish to go?"
34929Then she asked herself: Was there no one in Rome who could tell them of Captain Madden''s history?
34929Then, summoning more strength of character, she continued,"I wonder if you would mind telling us your name?
34929Then, too, had he not saved her life?
34929They are not so big for one thing, are they, Ruth?"
34929To stay-- Jack wondered how far in her present mood she might trust herself?
34929Was there any question in the world farther from her imagination than this unexpected one?
34929What a delicate mission she had taken upon herself and how ever was she to perform it?
34929What could he have to say to her which her chaperon should not hear?
34929What girl or woman can ever fail to be?
34929What had she said that was in the least amusing, when she had just made a plain statement of fact?
34929What now must be his judgment of her?
34929What was your reason?"
34929What will Mr. Colter think and say?"
34929Whatever put it into your mind?
34929When did you come?
34929Where did you leave her, Jean, when you came on board the second time after going ashore for another farewell to Mr. Colter?
34929Where was their old energetic desire to take long walks, to rise up early and certainly never to waste a moment in a nap in the afternoon?
34929Who on earth could he be?
34929Why did Jack not run to shelter?
34929Why did you come?"
34929Why is it you have been unwilling to listen, Jack?
34929Why should a marriage have made so great a change in her point of view?
34929Why should she think of home so suddenly?
34929Why should the nights in Naples recall moonlit evenings on the ranch which they had spent together years before?
34929Why were her fingers so cold and her cheeks so warm?
34929Will you give me my answer then?"
34929Will you stay with me as much as possible until you can find out what I have asked you?"
34929Would her New England conscience never allow her to be satisfied with telling only half the truth?
34929Would life ever make her lose her faith in her ideals and in the few persons to whom she would give her undivided love?
34929Would n''t you like me to buy it for you, or maybe you can think of some other little remembrance?"
34929Would she call on them in Rome and afterwards invite them to meet her friends?
34929Yet what could his confession mean?
34929[ Illustration: HER TONE WAS THAT OF ABSOLUTE AUTHORITY] So why should she be making herself so ridiculous before a total stranger?
34929[ Illustration:"JACK, DON''T YOU KNOW ME?"]
39594And now you''re sure he''s not the one the stars have destined for you?
39594And now?
39594And that''s all very well for poets and priests and young idealists to dream of, but when all''s said and done, what''s the good? 39594 And you could n''t stay longah?"
39594Are you sleepy?
39594Aunt Alicia,she asked presently,"were you_ suah_ at the time that you were making no mistake?
39594But grandfathah, how could you tell at such a distance?
39594But what finally showed you?
39594Dear little son, you want to help mother get well, do n''t you, lamb? 39594 Dear, is n''t there_ anything_ I could do to make myself worthier in your sight?
39594Did you know that your trunks came while you were at the post- office?
39594Do n''t I know the haughty Princess well enough to be sure that all the king''s horses and all the king''s men could n''t budge her against her will? 39594 Do n''t you remembah Kitty and Guy Ferris at that age?
39594Do you remember the day Malcolm broke through when he was trying to cake- walk on the ice?
39594Does n''t it seem queer to think of Allison''s being engaged? 39594 How can people exist in such an awful desolate, forsaken spot?"
39594How can you sit there taking it so calmly? 39594 How is that?"
39594How is this pose?
39594I? 39594 Is n''t her hair a glory, up there in the sunshine?"
39594Is n''t it deah?
39594Is n''t it dreadful? 39594 Is n''t it glorious?"
39594Is n''t it lovely?
39594Is n''t that characteristic of Mary?
39594Is n''t that sweet?
39594Is she shot?
39594Is the change in him or is it in me?
39594Is the game worth the candle?
39594Is you got a sand- pile to your house?
39594It is n''t that same old one she was at work on at school, is it?
39594Mothah,she asked, breaking a long comfortable silence that had fallen on them,"do you think that Lucy is happy?"
39594Now how does that make you feel, Miss Elizabeth Lloyd Lewis?
39594Now which way?
39594Oh Lloyd,_ ca n''t_ you come? 39594 Oh, are you all going to buy the Cabin?"
39594Oh, when?
39594Oh,_ where''s_ the light?

39594What''s the mattah with him, that he needs so much looking aftah? 39594 What''s the odds, when one does n''t care for a crown?"
39594What_ do_ you suppose she''s trying to do, and where do you suppose she managed to pick up Ca''line Allison?
39594When an irresistible force meets an immovable body, what_ does_ happen? 39594 When did you get home?"
39594When, where and whyfoah?
39594Where do_ I_ come in, pray? 39594 Which one of you girls is going to stay all night with me?"
39594Who is to be your escort?
39594Who may he be?
39594Who''s playing the devoted to her now?
39594Why can one nevah have two good times exactly alike?
39594Why did n''t you tell me soonah?
39594Why did you stop coming?
39594Why do n''t you read your letters?
39594Why do n''t_ you_ take him in hand? 39594 Why on earth did you do that?"
39594Why?
39594Will I be Judge Cywus Edwa''d Bannon then when I''m gwoed up?
39594Will you ever forget that first time we saw her, when she came out to play the violin at the Freshman reception? 39594 Would n''t Kitty have looked adorable in that darling old hat tied under her chin?
39594You insinuate that I have n''t them?
39594You know that poem of Browning''s, do n''t you, Miss Sherman?

39594CHAPTER VI"GARDEN FANCIES""OH, where are you going, my pretty maid?"
39594Can you wonder that it makes me radiantly happy to have you girls think that I have in a measure succeeded?"
39594Could n''t you give me some such chance?
39594Did it evah occur to you that I might not want to be taken possession of in that high- handed way?
39594Did n''t you get that letter?
39594Did n''t you have any doubts or misgivings about the doctah''s being the right one?"
39594Do n''t you remembah what Madam Chartley said in her lovely farewell speech to the graduating class?
39594Do n''t you suppose it made the whole world seem different, that they''re not yet done wondering ovah the surprise and joy of it?"
39594Do n''t you think so?"
39594God would understand, would n''t he?
39594Have n''t you as much interest in my welfare as in yoah sistah''s husband''s brothah?"
39594He could n''t help himself when she looks like that, and then where would all my plans be for poor Leland?"
39594He turned the wheel and sprang out, asking eagerly,"Is it anywhere that I can take you?"
39594Heah me?
39594How can I give up this hope that has grown with my growth till it means more than everything else in the world to me?
39594How can I live all the rest of my life without it?
39594How can we manage it?"
39594How could I be so careless when I''m to have a real live authoress to dinner?
39594How did you evah manage to dress yoahself right befoah I grew up to tend to you?"
39594How do I know but what I might grow to be like poah mistaken Hertha?
39594How do these moon- flowers know what calls them to open, or the tide when it is time to rise?
39594How does it happen you are going out on such an early train?"
39594How have you managed to do it all?
39594Is he anything out of the ordinary?"
39594Is he wild?"
39594Is it off?"
39594Is n''t he a darling?
39594Is n''t it odd?
39594Is n''t she perfectly stunning in that dark blue broadcloth?
39594Is she as much of a baby as ever?
39594Is there no method to tell her in Spanish June is twice June since she''s breathed it with me?''"
39594It makes you think of white things, does n''t it?
39594It_ would_ be sweet and romantic, would n''t it?
39594Lloyd, what''s become of that boy out in Arizona, the one who sent you those orange- blossoms in Joyce''s letter when I was here before?
39594Oh by the way, where_ is_ Betty?
39594Oh, deah, did n''t we used to have fun with her down on our ice pond?"
39594Robin Adair?
39594Set me a task?
39594She called out suddenly,"Sister, ca n''t you find that duet for us?
39594She was looking so pensively past the gay scene that he bent over her, humming in a low tone:"''What''s this dull town to me?
39594Speech half- asleep or song half- awake?
39594That_ I_ might have something to say in the mattah?
39594The boys all got to hailing him in Uncle Remus fashion,''Heyo, Brer Tarrypin, wha''r you bin dis long- come- short?''
39594The familiar sound was followed by a joyous barking from the Gordon setter, and then Rob''s voice called gaily,"Where are you, mother?
39594Was it fourteen or fifteen years ago?
39594Was it love or praise?
39594Was n''t he charming tonight?"
39594Was n''t it thrilling?"
39594What Italy are you climbing after now?"
39594What if somebody should see us?
39594What right had he to be so savage over her friendship?
39594What was it it reminded him of?
39594What was''t I wished to see?
39594What wished to hear?''"
39594What''s that rhyme Betty made about her when she was flower- girl at her own mother''s wedding?
39594What''s that she''s saying?"
39594What''s the good of taking you to Commencement, if that''s all the impression it made?"
39594What''s the use?"
39594When are you going to begin striving till you ovahcome-- till you do something really worth while in the world?"
39594Where did you get this new photograph of Ranald Walton on yoah dressing table?
39594Where''s Rob Moore and what is he doing?
39594Why did n''t she come with you?"
39594Why should n''t I?"
39594Why should n''t she call down to him over the banister as she had always done?
39594Will you evah forget the way Rob cake- walked with Mrs. Bisbee?
39594With a significant glance in its direction she asked saucily,"Señor Tarrypin, when are you going to put your family motto into actual use?
39594You are sure?"
39594he said bitterly, but Lloyd answered shyly,"No, do n''t you see?
15550A man in the road? 15550 All the way by trolley?
15550An accident?
15550And spend?
15550Another shiny thing? 15550 Are all of you girls going to be dressed alike?"
15550Are n''t we?
15550Are n''t you going to do something with those sides-- those arms, or whatever you call them?
15550Are n''t you shivering all over with excitement, Miss Gertrude?
15550Are our plans far enough along for us to ask her?
15550Are those the Green Mountains?
15550Are you able to do anything for your patient? 15550 Are you going to use wall paper?"
15550Are you people very keen on this drive through the Park System to- day?
15550As good as yours?
15550Bone?
15550Could you use some prints of pictures-- good paintings?
15550Count my guineas?
15550Did n''t the child have a chill?
15550Did n''t they arrest the driver of the car?
15550Did the Indianth uthe it?
15550Did they find much?
15550Did they get there?
15550Did you get any work?
15550Did you say,''Come, come,''just because you heard it? 15550 Do I understand that you''re really appealing to me to learn my scheme?"
15550Do I understand, Madam President,asked Roger,"that the chief officer of this distinguished Club has n''t any ideas to suggest?"
15550Do n''t you think it pushes your elbows up too high?
15550Do you recognize that piece of land?
15550Do you remember those wild grape vines that Helen and Ethel Brown found in the West Woods and used for Hallowe''en decorations? 15550 Do you see these cleats, ma''am?
15550Do you smell something queer?
15550Do you suppose she''d be willing to teach us how to do it? 15550 Do you suppose these old walls are in good enough condition to go uncovered?"
15550Do you think it''s safe for Dicky to have an arrow as sharp as that?
15550Do you think that was a lightning- bolt and it set the house on fire?
15550Do you think your talks are making any impressions on the mothers?
15550Do you throw it?
15550Do you want cushions for those chairs?
15550Had we better appoint committees for making the different investigations?
15550Had we better tell Mrs. Schuler about the embroidery class plan?
15550Has any one any suggestions?
15550Has n''t anybody else any ideas?
15550Have n''t you heard Father say so a dozen times?
15550Have you heard lately from your doctor in Oklahoma?
15550Have you talked about it with Mother and Aunt Louise?
15550How about music?
15550How are we ever going to teach them the madness of such behavior?
15550How are we going to fill it?
15550How are we going to serve them? 15550 How are you going to fasten that seat so it wo n''t let the sitter down on the floor?"
15550How are you going to make it look like a rose and not a pink bell?
15550How did you get back so soon?
15550How did you get here?
15550How do you make them?
15550How doeth it work?
15550How high from the ground does the seat go?
15550How is your patient?
15550How to make over the house, you mean?
15550How will you manage that?
15550How would you like to trolley back to New York?
15550Hungry, eh?
15550If it''s Algernon''s it ought to have-- how many guineas was it?
15550Is it early enough?
15550Is it furnished?
15550Is it guineas ye''re speaking about?
15550Is it marked''Gertrude''?
15550Is n''t this where the big college boat races are rowed?
15550Is the baby in the street?

15550Just us three?
15550Me being the helper?
15550Mine?
15550Not a cat?
15550Shall we appoint Ethel Brown to call on Mrs. Schuler and talk it over with her? 15550 Shall we have all the different kinds of flowers we can find or select one kind?"
15550Sleepy now?
15550Sunstroke?
15550Taught? 15550 The ones we gave a''show''for?"
15550There''s your house provided and furnished after a fashion-- how are you going to run it?
15550They always used flint, did n''t they?
15550They have you pretty often, do n''t they?
15550Walked?
15550Was it hard to make? 15550 Was it like these, Vladdy?"
15550We''ve had so many entertainments; can we do anything different enough for the Rosemonters to be willing to come?
15550Were you planning to paint them?
15550What are you youngsters plotting?
15550What can they be doing?
15550What did he do with thith arrowhead?
15550What did the shinies look like, son?
15550What did you find in the fireplace this morning, Moya? 15550 What do you suggest for these upstairs floors, Miss Merriam?
15550What do you think of this plan?
15550What does he mean by his''shinies''?
15550What have you been doing?
15550What have you got there, small blessing?
15550What is it?
15550What shiny thing?
15550What were you trying to do?
15550What you doing that for?
15550What''s the matter, old man? 15550 What''s the matter?
15550What''s this, what''s this?
15550What''s to prevent the plates sliding off?
15550What''th a bow?
15550What''th an arrow?
15550What''th that?
15550Where are they all?
15550Where could we have it--_it_ meaning our sale or whatever we decide to have?
15550Where have you been now?
15550Where in the world did you get those?
15550Where on the floor?
15550Where''s the money to come from?
15550Who gave them to you?
15550Who''s got a piece of string?
15550Who? 15550 Why ca n''t Ethel Blue and I each make a high chair?"
15550Why ca n''t we have a cooky sale-- with a few other things thrown in-- and use the proceeds for the decoration and furnishing of Rose House?
15550Why do n''t we get out, then?
15550Why do you leave Elisabeth to look after herself in this fashion? 15550 Why is it called that?"
15550Why not have it here? 15550 Would these be the shinies?"
15550You do n''t recall West Point?
15550You know the furniture they call''knockdown''?
15550You never were taught to cook?
15550You say you picked these up on the track, Dicky?
15550You wo n''t think it impertinent if I figure out how much you''re worth, will you Miss Gertrude?
15550All that money?
15550And who''s her friend?"
15550Are you sure he''ll make it well enough?
15550Are your leggies tired?
15550Can we reach them anywhere by telephone?"
15550Can you eat these cookies?"
15550Can you give me the lengths for these strips?"
15550Do you see the veranda of the hotel?
15550Does it take all of you to help Roger do that?"
15550Does that seem old to you?"
15550Get me?"
15550Grandfather thought they were n''t bad enough to have new ones laid, but they do look rather rocky, do n''t they?"
15550He''s still in the hospital, is n''t he?"
15550How are these kiddies at Rose House?"
15550How does it strike you?"
15550How does that strike you?"
15550How long will it take?
15550How many inches?"
15550I believe these children can mend it and paint it to look well enough for this room''?"
15550I wonder, if Greg Patton would bring his fiddle?"
15550If you''d like those--?"
15550Is it a bargain?"
15550Is n''t there some piece of furniture that they''d like better than anything else we could give them?"
15550Is n''t there something we can call his attention to now to take his mind off Indians?"
15550Is your eloquence equal to that strain, Ethel?"
15550Ivery day I walked and walked and ivery day I carried the baby, for where could I leave her?
15550Let''s see it?"
15550Paterno?"
15550Schuler?"
15550See how these two- sided legs protect the edges of the box as well as make it decent looking?"
15550Some one in Rosemont?"
15550That pink room raises my spirits when--""--when you get_ blue_?"
15550Treasury low?"
15550Up on the headland?"
15550Want the Ethels to carry you?"
15550We could say on the poster that exceptionally choice roses will be on exhibition and sale and-- and why could n''t we take orders for the bushes?
15550What did he do with it?
15550What do you say?"
15550What do you think?"
15550What for?"
15550Where did you find it, Ayleesabet?"
15550Who?
15550Why do n''t we have a class for international embroidery?"
15550cried Ethel Brown, and"Would n''t Helen be just crazy over all the history of this region?"
15550does n''t it?
15550she cried breathlessly,"Is the house falling?
15550she repeated,"mine?"
45728''Why do n''t you stay in a small town?'' 45728 Ah, Captain, you here too?"
45728And I-- I can not even see her?
45728And for--?
45728And have you spoken to her?
45728And it would n''t matter much if we were poor?
45728And leave Macochee?
45728And she--?
45728And she--?
45728And that''s all?
45728And what are you doing now, or proposing to do?
45728And what did I say?
45728And what did she say?
45728And will you be happy in that big city, away from every one you know, as the wife of a newspaper man?
45728And you are happy?
45728And you have nothing, you know of nothing?
45728And you think we can?
45728And you''re going to get out of it?
45728And your father?
45728Anything been going wrong lately? 45728 Are n''t you leaving out the best parts?"
45728Are you Preacher Marley''s son?
45728Are you going to?
45728Are you happy?
45728Are you so very much older now?
45728Are you too cool?
45728Beautiful?
45728Been to college?
45728But I thought there was to be no engagement?
45728But could n''t I ride in beside you?
45728But could n''t you?
45728But do you know, dear, that I never liked it before? 45728 But is n''t he cruel?"
45728But the devil of it is how''re you going to live? 45728 But what am I going to do?
45728But what did you work at? 45728 But what for?"
45728But what of papa?
45728But what will you do?
45728But where''ll I go?
45728But where?
45728But would n''t that make it look as if we were taking too much notice of it?
45728But would n''t that--?
45728But, Glenn, what about his drinking?
45728By the way,he asked, as if the thought had just come to him,"how did Selah Dudley make his money?"
45728Ca n''t we, dear?
45728Ca n''t we?
45728Ca n''t you be serious a moment?
45728Ca n''t you tell mama now?
45728Can you be happy in a little flat, without knowing anybody, and without being anybody?
45728Chief deputy?
45728Cigarettes?
45728Connie?
45728Could we?
45728Could you?
45728Did I hurt you?
45728Did my little girl think her father had deserted her?
45728Did n''t you talk to her about it when you were away?
45728Did you ever read,he wrote,"Turgenieff''s_ Fathers and Sons_?
45728Did you go riding this afternoon?
45728Did you? 45728 Did you?"
45728Do n''t you know,he went on,"ca n''t you see, that I love you?"
45728Do n''t you know?
45728Do n''t you like newspaper work?
45728Do n''t you make any entry-- any memorandum?
45728Do n''t you regret leaving it?
45728Do n''t you remember?
45728Do n''t you remember?
45728Do n''t you see-- don''t you see that-- I love you?
45728Do n''t you see?
45728Do you have to board the threshers?
45728Do you know where the well is?
45728Do you know,he said,"that I could n''t remember what color your eyes were?"
45728Do you remember that day?
45728Do you think him capable of such baseness?
45728Do you think it will ever be?
45728Do you think that is so?
45728Do you think we''d better have Doctor Pierce see her?
45728Do you think we''re going to do all the work? 45728 Does he like Chicago?"
45728Does he?
45728Does n''t he say anything about you?
45728Gathered it? 45728 Glenn?"
45728Got any money?
45728Guess you''re glad now I did n''t give you that job, eh?
45728Had father entered the ministry yet?
45728Had n''t you better take my coat?
45728Has she been over there?
45728Have you ever read any law?
45728Have you noticed Lavinia?
45728Have you seen him?
45728Have you talked with her about it?
45728He did n''t? 45728 He was n''t in the army, was he?"
45728He''s in the office of Wade Powell-- I suppose he is the one, is n''t he?
45728Here-- in my office?
45728Here?
45728How are you all? 45728 How are you, anyway?"
45728How did you know anything was?
45728How do you know?
45728How does he know me?
45728How is she?
45728How long has it been?
45728How long have we been gone?
45728How long have you and Lavinia known each other?
45728How long was you there?
45728How old was father when you were married, mother?
45728How old?
45728How shall you like living in Chicago?
45728How''d you know?
45728How?
45728How_ do_ young men get a start in places like Macochee?
45728I considered that, and still, it might seem more so if I did n''t, do n''t you see?
45728I mean,Lavinia said correctively,"is n''t he kind of sarcastic?"
45728I suppose you know what I came for?
45728I wonder if that is n''t the young man who visited them summer before last?
45728I''ve loved you ever since that first night-- do you remember? 45728 I?"
45728If you go?
45728In all the essentials they are, are n''t they?
45728Is it really true?
45728Is it too late?
45728Is n''t it a perfect night?
45728Is n''t it all beautiful?
45728Is n''t it wonderful?
45728Is n''t it?
45728Is n''t she well?
45728Is n''t that enough?
45728Is n''t this just the worst place for gossip you ever heard of?
45728Is she gloomy?
45728Is that Blackstone over there on the top shelf?
45728Is that all?
45728Is that all?
45728Is that what they call them?
45728Is that-- all?
45728Is there anything I can do for you?
45728Is there anything wrong in personal injury cases?
45728It should, should n''t it, mama?
45728It sounds just like him when he''s discussing some book none of us has read, does n''t it, Lavinia?
45728It was different with us, was n''t it, dear?
45728It was funny, was n''t it?
45728It''ll be three years before I can be admitted, wo n''t it?
45728It''s warm this afternoon, is n''t it?
45728It''s warm, is n''t it?
45728It_ was_ love at first sight, was n''t it?
45728Lavinia Blair?
45728Leave?
45728May I have a word with you?
45728May I?
45728May be it will be, who knows?
45728Mayme''s home, ai n''t she?
45728My, Lavinia, you do n''t intend to read all that, do you?
45728No, why?
45728Nothing much, only--"Only what?
45728Now what do you think of that? 45728 Of what?"
45728Oh, everybody knows about that,Lawrence replied with a light air that added to Marley''s gloom;"but what of it?
45728Right away?
45728Say, Glenn, what''s the matter with you?
45728Second volume, eh? 45728 See?"
45728Slightly; why?
45728Smoke?
45728So you want my advice, eh?
45728So you''ve been to him, have you?
45728Taking out her curl papers, eh?
45728Tell me, wo n''t you? 45728 That with your influence you might reform him-- out of his liking for you, do n''t you know?"
45728Then how did he get it?
45728Things_ are_ changing in these days, ai n''t they? 45728 Think there''s any sign of rain?"
45728Tonight? 45728 Victorias?"
45728Want to go? 45728 Was n''t it over there?"
45728We would be old?
45728Well, I suppose you know, do n''t you,he said,"that such cases are taken on contingent fees?"
45728Well, Jake, what do you say?
45728Well, Lavinia,said Lawrence, almost as soon as they were seated in the parlor,"what''s the news about Glenn?
45728Well, ca n''t you find a comfortable seat?
45728Well, how are you?
45728Well, it takes time, anyway,said Marley,"and then there''s the practice after that-- how long will that take?"
45728Well, little old Macochee''s good enough for us, eh, Wade?
45728Well, then, what makes you think she is n''t?
45728Well, what do you want?
45728Well, what of it?
45728Well?
45728Well?
45728What about?
45728What are you thinking of?
45728What as?
45728What clerkship was that?
45728What color are they?
45728What could it have been that so distressed her?
45728What did you say?
45728What did you think then?
45728What do you know about this business between Lavinia and that young Marley?
45728What do you mean?
45728What do you think? 45728 What do you want?"
45728What does it mean?
45728What for?
45728What has happened?
45728What is it, Glenn?
45728What is it, sweetheart?
45728What is it?
45728What is it?
45728What is the matter?
45728What is troubling my little girl?
45728What job?
45728What will my hours be?
45728What''d he say?
45728What''s he been doing this time?
45728What''s he? 45728 What''s it to you?"
45728What''s on your mind, young man?
45728What''s that, Lavinia?
45728What''s the matter, in love?
45728What''s the matter? 45728 What''s the matter?"
45728What''s the use of waiting?
45728What, for instance?
45728What?
45728When we picked out our farm-- where was it?
45728When?
45728Where''s Vinie?
45728Who could help it?
45728Who with?
45728Who with?
45728Who''d you understand it from, me or Wade Powell?
45728Why do n''t you play fair?
45728Why do n''t you read that? 45728 Why do n''t you settle it?"
45728Why not? 45728 Why, Glenn, how can you say that?
45728Why, Jack, I did n''t say anything, did I?
45728Why, Lavinia,he cried,"you are n''t homesick?"
45728Why, do n''t you know? 45728 Why, do n''t you see?"
45728Why, surely you have n''t forgotten-- that day out at the fair- grounds, when Mr. Powell introduced me to you? 45728 Why, what did I say that hinted at it, even?"
45728Why?
45728Why?
45728Why?
45728Why?
45728Will he--?
45728Will it?
45728Will you bring out another chair, dear, or would you prefer to go indoors?
45728Will you tell him?
45728Will you?
45728Wo n''t you get your feet wet?
45728Wo n''t you take cold?
45728Would you care?
45728Would you like to keep it?
45728Would you like to think of_ your_ daughter as fickle, and forgetting a young man who was eating his heart out for her far away in a big city?
45728Would you never care to come back if it were not for me?
45728Would you?
45728Y-- es,said Mrs. Marley,"but then--""But then, what?"
45728Yes, I know, but what if he gets the notion he ought to help them by quitting too?
45728Yes, do n''t you know? 45728 Yes,"Miss Winters replied,"almost too warm to dance, do n''t you think?"
45728You ai n''t fretting over that job, are you?
45728You ai n''t sick, are you?
45728You are reading with a preceptor, I take it?
45728You did n''t mention it to her?
45728You do n''t mean to say he connects our names?
45728You do n''t? 45728 You have completed your education?"
45728You have?
45728You have?
45728You have?
45728You know, dear, we can''t--The tears were brimming in her blue eyes, and he left his sentence uncompleted to go on:"So you''re homesick, eh?
45728You said you knew his father, did n''t you?
45728You say you got the idea from something I said out at the fair- grounds?
45728You say you understood you was to have a job under me as chief clerk?
45728You think a great deal of Mr. Weston, do n''t you?
45728You think he''d risk his hide in the army? 45728 You''ll write?"
45728You''re not thinking of getting married, are you, Glenn?
45728Your hours?
45728''Why?''
45728A boy who writes like that to his mother--""How did you get to see a letter he wrote his mother?"
45728And does Hank Delphy still go down- town in his shirt- sleeves?
45728And has Charlie Fouly had any fits in the Square lately?
45728And then he asked:"Did he have any money?"
45728And then his fear returned at Lavinia''s sinister,"But--""But what?"
45728And, father, has mother got a girl yet?
45728Are n''t you having a good time?
45728As they approached the veranda, Lawrence''s voice called out of the darkness:"Well, where have you young folks been stealing away to?"
45728As they pulled up and Marley sprang out of the boat to the landing stage, Lawrence said:"Well, where have you babes been?"
45728But after a while the judge spoke:"Did Lavinia go to the picnic with young Marley?"
45728But he blinked a moment, and then cautiously asked:"What about?"
45728But how?
45728But what of Lavinia?
45728By breaking the engagement?
45728By going away quietly, silently, without a word?
45728By keeping her waiting, year after year, until he could find a foothold in the world?
45728CHAPTER XXV LETTERS HOME"How does she seem since he went away?"
45728Can you row?"
45728Carman?"
45728Connie was eating savagely, but she whirled on Chad, speaking with difficulty because her mouth was filled with food:"You shut up, will you?"
45728Did he inherit it?"
45728Did you ask me?"
45728Did you get Foose all right?"
45728Do n''t see the first around anywhere, do you?"
45728Do n''t you care to dance this evening?"
45728Do n''t you feel well?"
45728Do n''t you remember?"
45728Do you see?"
45728Do you think I ca n''t wait anyhow?
45728Do you think I cared for that?
45728Do you think I could n''t have waited?
45728Does Smith Johnson still clap his hands at his dog every evening as he comes home, and does the dog run out to meet him as joyously as of yore?
45728For mama, and Connie?"
45728Has any one got a pitcher concealed about his person?
45728Has it been that long?"
45728Has she heard from him?"
45728Has the young man been here much?"
45728He could not, however, evince an entire approval, and so seeming to desert the subject he hastened on:"What''s your name?"
45728He paused, and then:"Do you use tobacco?"
45728He smoked on a moment, ruminating on his lost youth; then, bringing himself around to business again, he said:"How''d you happen to come to me?"
45728His eyes became small, mere inflamed slits beneath his hairless brows, and he said:"I thought you said you wanted advice?"
45728How am I to begin?"
45728How is Dolly?
45728How long would it be before he could sit there beside her, as her husband?
45728How many years, Marley was thinking, would they have to wait now?
45728How old did you say you were when we were married?"
45728How''s he getting along?"
45728I know-- I know I''m not good enough, but ca n''t you-- can''t I-- love you?"
45728Is n''t our future assured now?"
45728Lavinia admitted that it did sound like Halliday, and Mayme returned to her attack on Lawrence by saying:"What do you know about writing, anyway?"
45728Lawrence?"
45728Marley told him that he had just that summer been graduated and when he mentioned the name of the college Powell said:"The Methodists, eh?"
45728Marley?"
45728Marley?"
45728Ought he to ask her to wait any longer?
45728Presently he inquired, as if by way of getting a basis to start on:"You been to college, ai n''t you?"
45728Raining in London?"
45728Seeming to recognize this he hastened to say:"Well, how''s the world using you, Vinie?"
45728So soon?"
45728Take it to water your horse?"
45728Tell me-- what is it?"
45728The moral environment there is certainly not one for a young man--""Is he really an_ infidel_?"
45728The young man went on with an anxious smile:"This is Judge Blair, I presume?
45728Then he added as if the thought had just come to him:"Say, can you run a typewriter?"
45728Then he said:"''How''d you like to break into newspaper business?''
45728This afternoon he came around to the office again, and the first thing he said was:"''Did you see your story this morning?''
45728We''ll do when you ca n''t find anybody else to put up with you, eh?"
45728Well, he had nerve, did n''t he?
45728Weston?"
45728What can I get here in Macochee, I''d like to know?"
45728What did you do with the pitcher, Glenn?
45728What do they do?
45728What do you think of that?"
45728What does anything matter, so long as we have each other?"
45728What does it matter?
45728What does your own mother think of it?"
45728What had you when you proposed to mama?
45728What right had he to ask her to marry him?
45728What right had he to place her in the position he had?
45728What''d you run for?"
45728What''s the matter?"
45728When did you hear it?"
45728When she had done so, she dropped her sewing suddenly into her lap, and looking up, said:"He thinks everything of you, does n''t he?"
45728When they had gone and were strolling toward the Carters'', Lawrence grumbled at Mayme:"What did you want to give it all away to Lavinia for?"
45728When you came into the room, I knew that--""What?"
45728Where are they all going, and how do they get a place to stand on?
45728Who else?"
45728Why ca n''t you?"
45728Why?"
45728Will you?"
45728Would Lavinia be lost with all the rest?
45728Would n''t it make Wade Powell mad to know that?
45728You did n''t leave your music at home, did you?"
45728You do n''t want to keep Lavinia housed up there, away from all the fun that''s going on, do you?
45728he said presently,"this love of ours?
45728he sneered;"so he sympathizes with unionism, does he?
40449A what?
40449And I said,''Doing anything in Unified?''
40449And did you know anything of another James Southam?
40449And do you know, sir, that is my point of view as well?
40449And have you come all the way to Draper''s Gardens to tell me so? 40449 And how are things in the City?"
40449And how long do you say, sir, he had then been dead?
40449And pray who may Mrs. Lascelles- Trevor be?
40449And the result is to give you that dyspeptic look? 40449 And what was the time, sir, when you arrived?"
40449And yet you almost saw him killed?
40449And you have arrested Mr. Southam-- for what?
40449Are you a policeman?
40449Are you aware that Miss Truscott has promised to be my wife?
40449Are you interested in dogs, Mr. Ely? 40449 Are you interested in questions of millinery?"
40449Are you the James Southam here alluded to?
40449Are you? 40449 Beautiful scenery, is n''t it?"
40449Because you were suspected of having murdered that man?
40449Been here long, sir?
40449Been up Regent Street?
40449Beg pardon, sir, how''s that?
40449Break your plighted word? 40449 But an unhesitating-- a final and decisive yes?"
40449By the way, Mr. Ely, have you been up Regent Street just lately?
40449Can you tell me if there are any nice things in the shop- windows?
40449Change your hotel? 40449 Depends!--depends on what?"
40449Did I not tell you that your course was nearly run? 40449 Did n''t you love him, then?"
40449Did the cat drink all the cream?
40449Did you notice how they are wearing the hats in town?
40449Did you think that? 40449 Do I think that who did what?"
40449Do I understand that you are offering me your congratulations?
40449Do n''t care for love- letters-- as a rule?
40449Do n''t you see, Mr. Ely, that you''re placing me in a delicate position?
40449Do n''t you? 40449 Do with them?
40449Do you call this a question of sentiment? 40449 Do you know Mr. Frederic Ely?"
40449Do you know how long it is since you came to look upon my face? 40449 Do you know that, from my point of view, fair queen, this was worth waiting for?"
40449Do you know this man Summers?
40449Do you know what I have done? 40449 Do you know what happened yesterday?"
40449Do you know what he came for then?
40449Do you know, Mr. Southam, that I have been reading about this dreadful murder case? 40449 Do you mean that you are impecunious?"
40449Do you mean to say, while he was doing all you have described, that he was asleep?
40449Do you mind my looking at the letter?
40449Do you see that? 40449 Do you think I shall marry this man?"
40449Do you think that my husband killed that man?
40449Do you wish me to copy this letter in the same way as the others?
40449Do you wish me to find you one? 40449 Doing anything in Unified?"
40449Eh? 40449 Eleven thirty- five?
40449Excuse me, but can you tell me where Miss Truscott is?
40449For what? 40449 Guardian, what does this mean?"
40449Guardian, would you like to look at the garden? 40449 Hang it, sir; do n''t I tell you that she promised?"
40449Have n''t you? 40449 Have you any relatives of your own name?
40449Have you any relatives of your own name?
40449Have you spoken to her yet?
40449How about that Erie syndicate?
40449How could you do that?
40449How do I know what is in the newspapers? 40449 How do you know my name''s James Southam?"
40449How long did you live there?
40449How long has he been gone?
40449How should I? 40449 How the matter lies?
40449I hope that there really has been no misunderstanding with-- with the lady?
40449I hope, sir, that you are not going?
40449I say, Ash, when do you think the wedding could come off?
40449I say, Ely, what''s the row?
40449I suppose it does n''t matter?
40449I suppose that all you want from me is''Yes''; and that in complete indifference as to whether I like you or do not?
40449I suppose,he said in a whisper to the lady, keeping one eye fixed on Mr. Ely all the time,"I suppose she''ll come?"
40449I wonder if-- if she''s come round to my point of view? 40449 I wonder where she is?
40449I would n''t give a button for the man who had n''t; eh, Ely, what do you say? 40449 If, as you say, you were born and bred in such a place as Dulborough, I presume that you had some knowledge of the inhabitants?''
40449In a hurry? 40449 In what sort of a position do you think you''re placing me?"
40449In your creed love comes after marriage?
40449Is it a dream? 40449 Is it so black a crime?"
40449Is that the case?
40449Is that what you have come to tell me? 40449 Is the woman me?"
40449Is this the person you were expecting?
40449Is this your present address?
40449It does sound a little that way, does n''t it?
40449It is very kind of you, but do you clearly understand, madam, that you are speaking to a person whose character is under a cloud?
40449It would seem to be, would n''t it? 40449 It''s you again, is it?
40449It''s you? 40449 Lily, are you stark, raving mad?
40449Lily, what is the meaning of all this?
40449Little misunderstanding you call it, do you? 40449 Look here, Ash; when he''s failed, will you consent to Lily being mine?"
40449May I ask what I am to understand by that?
40449May I ask you for an answer to my question?
40449May I ask, Mr. Ely, for an explanation of the language which you use?
40449May I inquire, Mr. Bailey, what you mean?
40449Miss Truscott, wo n''t you turn and look at me?
40449Mr. Ash, may I ask you to protect me from this gentleman?
40449Mr. Southam is your prisoner? 40449 Mrs. Barnes''s compliments, and if you are at liberty, could she speak to you in the private parlour?"
40449Mrs. Clive, may I ask you to withdraw?
40449Mrs. Clive, will you not listen to the all- conquering voice, the voice of love?
40449My dear Mr. Ash, what do you mean?
40449My dear aunt, why are you amazed?
40449No? 40449 No?"
40449Of course you have evidence as to the truth of what you say?
40449Of secretary?
40449Oh, she has told you so much, has she? 40449 One has to come into the country to do what?"
40449Or do you take a wider range, and take a living interest in the burning questions of the progress of revolution and the advance of man?
40449Ought n''t that to be-- Is the woman I?
40449Recent inhabitants of Dulborough? 40449 Right through what?"
40449Shall I give dear Lily a message when you are gone?
40449Shall I tell you what my own opinion of the matter is?
40449Shall you be angry with me, Will?
40449She has what?
40449She say you gave her a little gift, eh? 40449 Stone- broke?"
40449Surely not quite the same? 40449 That is as good a girl as ever lived; you will do justice to her, eh?"
40449That is most gratifying, is n''t it? 40449 That sort of thing''s hardly your line, eh?"
40449The contents of the papers-- what papers?
40449The domestic arrangements? 40449 The other one comes after, eh?"
40449Then what the dickens does she mean? 40449 There again-- who shall define folly?
40449Think so? 40449 To look at him you would n''t think he was engaged, now, would you?"
40449To whom?
40449To write you a letter? 40449 To- morrow, did you?
40449Well, Miss Truscott, am I to be gratified?
40449Well, has Mr. Rothwell been?
40449Well, sir, and what can we do for you?
40449Well? 40449 What are you sitting up for at this hour of the night?
40449What are you talking about?
40449What business have you to ask me such a question? 40449 What can you expect when even the elementary rules of grammar are not there?"
40449What did you say?
40449What do I know about him? 40449 What do you know about the matter?"
40449What do you know of Mrs. Barnes''s husband?
40449What do you mean?
40449What do you mean?
40449What do you mean?
40449What do you mean?
40449What does he look like?
40449What does it matter? 40449 What does n''t matter?"
40449What does she mean by she''s changed her mind?
40449What else do you suppose I want you to be? 40449 What fine day?"
40449What has gone?
40449What has happened?--who has broken the plates?
40449What has that to do with you?
40449What have I done?
40449What have you done?
40449What have you to say for yourself?
40449What information can you possibly expect to receive?
40449What is that upon your hand?
40449What is the matter with you, man? 40449 What is your name?"
40449What man? 40449 What name-- was that-- you said?"
40449What now?
40449What on earth has that to do with me?
40449What promise?
40449What shall I do? 40449 What shall we talk about?"
40449What the dickens do I care if you''ve been in love with her twelve years? 40449 What the dickens do I know about the hats in town?"
40449What the dickens do you mean?
40449What the dickens do you mean?
40449What the dickens do you mean?
40449What the dickens shall I say? 40449 What times?"
40449What was he coming to see you about?
40449What was his name?
40449What was that you said?
40449What you mean-- try some other lay?
40449What young lady?
40449What''s it matter to you?
40449What''s that?
40449What''s that?
40449What, now? 40449 When I love another man?--when my whole heart only beats for him?--when, in a sense which you shall never understand, I am his, and he is mine?"
40449Where did this Mr. Duncan Rothwell live?
40449Where did you get the man? 40449 Where did you steal that letter?"
40449Where have you been living not to have heard of it? 40449 Which of them?
40449Which with you stands higher-- love or honesty?
40449Who do you think that is?
40449Who has made his choice?
40449Who is Duncan Rothwell? 40449 Who is your client?"
40449Who the deuce are you?
40449Who the devil are you?
40449Who''s done nothing wrong?
40449Who''s there?
40449Why did you ever go? 40449 Why do you ask?"
40449Why do you make to me such a proposition? 40449 Why do you want me?
40449Why have you been so long?
40449Why not? 40449 Why should you think that?"
40449Why, what can he say? 40449 Why?
40449Why? 40449 Will what?"
40449Will you be my wife?
40449Willy, do n''t you know my aunt?
40449Wo n''t she? 40449 Would you have me marry you-- now?"
40449Would you like to fill the post of secretary?
40449Would you treat me as an old woman, then?
40449You allude to the recent unfortunate occurrence, sir? 40449 You are not a policeman, or a detective, or a private inquiry agent, or anything of that kind-- you swear it?"
40449You are quite sure, Mrs. Barnes, that you also were not fast asleep?
40449You are telling me the truth?
40449You did not kiss her, eh? 40449 You have-- what?"
40449You mean that you will be my wife? 40449 You mean----?"
40449You never asked her to marry you?
40449You never gave her to understand that you wished her for your wife, eh?
40449You said,''I want you''?
40449You seem very fond of reading?
40449You think my hand is gloved? 40449 You want a what?"
40449You''ve done what?
40449''And Shall Trelawney Die?''
40449( Did anybody ever hear the like of that?
40449( I wonder if she says anything about her being ill?)
40449( It is as well that the explanation follows immediately after, or echo would have answered''Why?'')
40449( Oh, has she?
40449( What passed between us yesterday-- what''s she mean?
40449( What-- what the blazes does she mean?)
40449About what?
40449All six?"
40449Am I justified in supposing that you are starting on your honeymoon?"
40449Am I not a mother, then?"
40449And Mrs. Clive?
40449And do you think I''ve a selection on view here?"
40449And he went on--"I pray you tell me-- do you love me?"
40449And now, pray, what is it that you mean to do?"
40449And the signature-- where is it?
40449And was n''t it worth it all for the sake of the reconciliation at the end?"
40449And what do you know of him?"
40449And what does Mrs. Lascelles- Trevor want with me?"
40449And when do you say that you discovered this man on the floor?"
40449And where are all my dreams of love?
40449And where do you suppose that I shall be?"
40449And where have you been this great, long time?
40449And where the other fellow is?
40449And who is Willy, pray?"
40449And whom, for her sweet sake and Pompey''s, I love too?"
40449And why did she apparently not dare to allow her eyes to rest, even for a moment, on my face?
40449Anything settled about the date?
40449Are n''t you well?"
40449Are you aware that it is not four- and- twenty hours since you promised Mr. Frederic Ely to be his wife?"
40449Are you stark mad?"
40449Are you suggesting that with him Friday was some sort of anniversary?"
40449Are you sure the letter comes from her?"
40449As we do agree now, wo n''t you take my hand?"
40449Barnes?"
40449Barnes?"
40449Because you have broken Pompey''s leg?
40449Been induced to lend his aged mother half a crown?
40449Before I did?"
40449But may I ask what that has to do with me?"
40449But what especial evil have I done?"
40449But what''s the matter?
40449But when they reached Waterloo Mr. Rosenbaum remarked--"Well, my friend, what is it to be?
40449CHAPTER VI THE WOMAN WITH ONE HAND"Mrs. Lascelles- Trevor''s compliments, sir, and would you mind stepping upstairs?"
40449Can we not compromise the case, we principals?
40449Can you not guess?"
40449Clive?"
40449Could the man be such a consummate actor?
40449Could you so divide the family?
40449Did n''t you see I did when I met him here the other day?"
40449Did you quarrel with him?
40449Do I know the lady?"
40449Do n''t I say it plain enough?
40449Do n''t you feel funny?
40449Do n''t you know me, Pompey?"
40449Do n''t you know that there is a language more eloquent than speech?
40449Do you consider that a justification to the scoundrel who betrays another fellow''s wife?"
40449Do you know I paid twenty pounds for that?
40449Do you know I spent twenty pounds on an engagement- ring?"
40449Do you know all about it, then?"
40449Do you know that his mother once ate nearly the whole of a pair of my old shoes?"
40449Do you think I buy engagement- rings to sell them at a profit, then?"
40449Do you think I should buy engagement- rings if I was n''t sure that it was clear?
40449Do you think he did it?"
40449Do you think it is his ribs?"
40449Do you think that in such a matter it is possible for a woman to change her mind?"
40449Do you want to drive me mad?
40449Does she mean all that to you?"
40449Does your conscience not reproach you, sir?
40449Ely, what do you think?
40449Ely?"
40449Ely?"
40449Excuse one stranger speaking to another, but could you tell me where Miss Truscott is?"
40449First, is Mr. Duncan Rothwell the name of the client for whom you have been acting?"
40449For instance, once when the train stopped at a station--"This is Rowland''s Castle, is n''t it?"
40449For we are agreed, are we not?"
40449For who shall know you and not love you as his life?
40449From her?
40449Griffith of Tokenhouse Yard is your solicitor-- not so?"
40449Had I not done him an injustice after all?
40449Has Mr. Rothwell been to see you?"
40449Has any one calling himself Duncan Rothwell been to see you?"
40449Have you forgotten Pompey, sir?
40449Have you forgotten what happened yesterday?
40449How are you, dear old man?"
40449How can a man expect a girl to love him if she do n''t believe that he loves her?
40449How can a man make himself agreeable to a woman when there''s a dog ready to bite his nose off sitting on her knee?
40449How did you come to know that my name was James Southam?"
40449I hope I have n''t interrupted you?"
40449I say, Ely, why do n''t you go in for something in this line?"
40449I suppose it is the Juggernaut of commerce which has kept you so long away?"
40449I understood you to say that she was going to marry you?"
40449I wonder how much Mr. Summers intends to pay?"
40449I wonder if he knows what sort of a ward he''s got?
40449If I let you get up, can I trust you?"
40449If you were?
40449In asking me to be your wife, you are not asking for-- love?"
40449Instead of whom?"
40449Is he the client for whom you are acting?"
40449Is it a dream?"
40449Is it you?"
40449Is n''t it good enough?"
40449Is n''t that a funny man?"
40449Is she going to be my wife or yours?"
40449Is that all?
40449Is that quite fair?
40449Is that true?"
40449Is the girl stark mad?
40449Is the young lady a friend of yours?"
40449Is there anything funny about the looks of a man when he''s engaged?"
40449It does sound incredible, does n''t it?
40449It was from Miss Truscott, as sure as fate: the first letter from his love?
40449Lascelles- Trevor?"
40449May I ask if you can tell me where I am likely to find Miss Truscott?"
40449May I ask if you think that the lady''s is unnecessary too?"
40449May I ask when you made what I must call this surreptitious request to my ward for her hand?"
40449Not flattering to her, eh?"
40449Now did you-- did you ever hear anything like that?
40449Now, what shall I say?)
40449Of what?
40449On what?"
40449Or is it something more tangible than love?"
40449Sir, do you think that''he''did it?"
40449Supposing he should die?
40449Surely he did not say that all his life was centred in his love for me?"
40449Tell me, sir, has any one calling himself Duncan Rothwell been to see you?
40449That it is possible for a man and woman to understand each other perfectly and yet not interchange a word?
40449That so?"
40449The old lady turned to her niece--"My dear Lily, what have I said or done?"
40449Then he put to me a question:"Do you mean to say that nothing has been found out to show who did it?"
40449Want to exhibit a little valour on the cheap?"
40449Was he the man?"
40449Was not Mr. Ely looking on?
40449Was she at it again?
40449Well, aunty, what do you think of that?"
40449Well, what do you say to twelve months, my boy?"
40449What Southam was it you knew?"
40449What brings you two thieves in here?
40449What did I tell him?
40449What did you say?"
40449What do you know about him?
40449What do you mean?
40449What do you mean?"
40449What do you mean?"
40449What do you mean?"
40449What do you suppose that he will say to that?"
40449What does my being a man of fortune mean?
40449What does that sale mean?
40449What does the fool want here?
40449What harm is there in that?
40449What has Mrs. Barnes''s husband to do with you-- or with me?
40449What has happened?
40449What has she told you more?"
40449What is his name?
40449What is it you have done?
40449What is it you want with me?"
40449What is that?"
40449What is the matter now?"
40449What name was that you said?
40449What papers?"
40449What passed between you on the river that fine day?"
40449What she is she owes to you?
40449What the devil brings you here?"
40449What the devil do you mean?"
40449What the dickens do you mean by saying that the woman who has promised to be my wife loves you?"
40449What the dickens, sir, do you mean by calling me your friend?"
40449What time is it?
40449What took place between you in the coffee- room?"
40449What was I to do?
40449What was I to think?
40449What was a letter from Duncan Rothwell doing among Mrs. Lascelles- Trevor''s papers?
40449What was any one to think?
40449What was the matter with the woman?
40449What was the scoundrel''s name?"
40449What will our future mothers be?"
40449What''s the matter now?"
40449What''s the matter with him, Ash?
40449What''s the matter, Ash?
40449What''s this?"
40449What''s up now?
40449What-- what''s that?"
40449Whatever brings you here?"
40449Whatever is there wrong?"
40449When is it to be?"
40449When is there a train?"
40449When you have ruined Mrs. Jones do you put a similar inquiry to Jones?
40449Where are you off to?"
40449Where has he gone, and why?
40449Who are you?
40449Who should know her if not I?
40449Who was it, a man or a woman?"
40449Who was my dearest Amelia?
40449Who was right about the little misunderstanding, now?
40449Who would have thought of seeing you?
40449Who, then, are you?"
40449Who?"
40449Why are you surprised?
40449Why had she chosen this eccentric method of conveying to me such an enigmatic message?
40449Why should all the plunder go into the lawyer''s hands?
40449Why should n''t it be Miss Truscott, Ash?
40449Why should n''t it be Miss Truscott, Ash?"
40449Why?
40449Why?
40449Will you allow me to ask if you are still seeking employment?
40449Will you become my secretary?
40449Will you forgive me my presumption in that I thought that I had won the prize?"
40449Will you name the day?"
40449Will you relieve my impotence?
40449Will you write one for me now?"
40449Wo n''t some one else do as well?"
40449Wo n''t the morning do?
40449Would it have been honest for her to have married you when she loved me?"
40449Would you have me break my plighted word?"
40449Would you marry a woman who frankly tells you that she loathes you, and that she yearns for another man?"
40449Yet, sweet, why not?
40449You are sure you''re listening?"
40449You did not kiss her that fine day?"
40449You have taught her what you yourself learnt at your mother''s knee?
40449You know Rosenbaum?"
40449You tell me, straight out, what it is you want with me-- do you hear?"
40449You understand?
40449You would not have us waste its sweetness?"
40449You''re not even making a pretence of loving me?"
40449You''ve got a time- table, have n''t you?
40449what do you mean?
40449what do you mean?"
40449what have I done?
40449what the teffel is it brings you?"
40449why have you been false?
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?
18413A-- a-- a what?
18413Am I supposed to guess?
18413And Larkie, too?
18413And let us make taffy after supper?
18413And the baby?
18413And what are you going to be?
18413And what do they say of me?
18413And what shall we serve them?
18413And where in the world did you get these towels and silk shirts?
18413And where is the chair- bottom now?
18413And why did you take it?
18413And you two great big girls came off and left poor little Connie in there alone with a burglar, did you? 18413 And you understand, do n''t you, father, that if everything does not go just exactly right, I shall feel I am disgraced for life?
18413Are n''t they at home? 18413 Are n''t you Limber- Limb Grant?"
18413Are the girls at school?
18413Are the twins boys, or a boy and a girl?
18413Are these rotten oysters?
18413Are you assaulted?
18413Are you beginning to feel sick? 18413 Are you going to be busy this afternoon, Prudence?"
18413Are you going to live in Mount Mark now? 18413 Are you hurt?"
18413Are you sick, Prue?
18413Are you sick?
18413Are your feet wet, twins?
18413Been any men in here to- night?
18413Before?
18413But do n''t you see how hard it will be for me to go away?
18413But do n''t you want to get married,--some time?
18413But do you like her?
18413But how do you twins understand all these things so thoroughly?
18413But she will ask where we got it, and what shall we say?
18413But wo n''t it be rather-- poky-- just sitting in the front room by yourselves all evening?
18413But you precious child,he whispered,"why did n''t you call out, or pound on the door?"
18413Ca n''t you send those girls away for the night,--to some of the neighbors? 18413 Can I go and take a walk?"
18413Can you bring him here?
18413Can your father make her eat? 18413 Come down- stairs, will you?
18413Come now, what do they say? 18413 Could you walk from here to Burlington at one stretch?"
18413Did he look rich?
18413Did the twins play fair, Connie?
18413Did they say you might have them?
18413Did you ask Miss Allen about it?
18413Did you ever have a lover, Prudence? 18413 Did you ever?"
18413Did you get my application?
18413Did you know your sleeve was coming out?
18413Did you play football at college? 18413 Did you see him?"
18413Did you take the bottom out of this chair?--It must have been horribly uncomfortable for those who have sat there!--However did it happen?
18413Did you think I walked clear from Des Moines?
18413Did you? 18413 Did your father send you on an errand?"
18413Do n''t the twins tell you little things that happen at school,--like that, for instance?
18413Do n''t you have dreams of the future? 18413 Do n''t you have dreams?"
18413Do n''t you remember saying you could n''t swallow when we were coming home from school?
18413Do n''t you think you owe me something, as well as your father and sisters? 18413 Do n''t you think, my dear,"began Mrs. Prentiss too sweetly,"that they are a little more than you can manage?
18413Do n''t you want some fudge, Connie?
18413Do the twins dress alike?
18413Do you call that a blessing?
18413Do you drink?
18413Do you like Miss Allen?
18413Do you mean you want me to get my things, and go right now?
18413Do you mind if we take Jerry around by the woodshed for a few minutes, Prue?
18413Do you really prefer to stay at home, Prudence?
18413Do you see this board?
18413Do you suppose there can be seven devils in my tongue, Lark, like there are in the Bible?
18413Do you suppose they caught her?
18413Do you suppose you can find us some milk, Prue? 18413 Do you think I have pet bugs to carry around with me for company?"
18413Do you think it is all right for me to wear it, father?
18413Do you think me so unmanly that I could n''t fall in love?
18413Do you think we can carry home oysters for the-- the-- personal consumption of this Babbling young prince? 18413 Do you want me to rub it?"
18413Do your shoulders hurt, Carol?
18413Does Prudence know about that?
18413Does she miss me? 18413 Does that make it square?"
18413Else you would not have taken it, eh? 18413 Excuse me just a minute, will you?"
18413Fairy, did n''t father leave his watch hanging on that nail by the table? 18413 Father,"began Prudence, her eyes on the lace coverlet,"do you think it would be all right for me to wear that silk dressing- gown of mother''s?
18413Finish getting supper, will you, Fairy? 18413 Go in and entertain Babbie till I come down, wo n''t you?"
18413Has Prudence been worrying about something this winter?
18413Has she been grieving, and fretting for something?
18413Have heretics feelings?
18413Have n''t you seen the morning paper? 18413 Have you been sick?
18413Have you got any rotten ones?
18413How about the twins?
18413How do you do?
18413How do you expect to keep to- day''s minutes?
18413How is that?
18413How long did it take you coming from Des Moines to Mount Mark?
18413How much have you got?
18413How old are you, my dear?
18413How should I know? 18413 I am sure you are very nice indeed, and we are going to be good friends, are n''t we?
18413I am sure you will not mind that, will you father? 18413 I suppose it would hardly do to-- pop corn, would it?"
18413I''ll bet there are a lot of nice fellows in Mount Mark, are n''t there?
18413I-- I-- well, you know I-- you remember what I told you that first day, do n''t you? 18413 If I get below seventy will I be put down a grade?"
18413Is Des Moines just full of beautiful girls?
18413Is Mr. Harold in?
18413Is he handsome?
18413Is he young?
18413Is it a riddle?
18413Is n''t he a duck?
18413Is n''t it a dandy?
18413Is n''t it a lovely day? 18413 Is n''t it beautiful, Prudence?"
18413Is n''t it beautiful? 18413 Is n''t it beautiful?"
18413Is n''t she in on this?
18413Is n''t that Mrs. Adams coming this way? 18413 Is n''t that heresy?
18413Is she all right?
18413Is she better?
18413Is she sleeping?
18413Is she very stupid?
18413Is that your idea of love? 18413 Is there any way out of that closet besides this door?"
18413Is your throat still sore, Carol?
18413It is that young man, is n''t it?
18413It was n''t the one that had the giminy billibus, was it?
18413It''s a good thing father has to go to the trustees''meeting to- night, is n''t it?
18413It''s a pretty street, is n''t it?
18413It''s just Miss Avery getting home from school.--Isn''t it, Prudence? 18413 It''s nice she can sleep like that, is n''t it?"
18413It''s so hot walking, is n''t it? 18413 Jerry is out unusually early, too, is n''t he?
18413Jerry,he said abruptly,"did you and Prudence have a quarrel?
18413Just like ordinary men, is n''t he?
18413Just sit and look at each other and admire yourselves?
18413Let''s make taffy, shall we, Fairy?
18413Listen now, Prue,--how is this?
18413Look here, Prudence, what did Miss Allen tell you? 18413 Look here, Prue,--what do you make of this?
18413May I come in a minute?
18413Maybe he will,--but who will keep the parsonage while I am away?
18413Must you prepare meat for breading half an hour before cooking, or when?
18413No,said Lark,"we have better judgment than to go splashing through the wet old snow.--What''s the matter with you, Carol?
18413No,--but do n''t you remember the picnic,--and how you kept gathering them up in your handkerchiefs and putting them in your pockets? 18413 Now, tell father,"he urged,"how did you get in the dungeon?
18413Now, what is wrong? 18413 Now, what would you advise us to do?"
18413Now, will you twins run down- town for the oysters?
18413Oh, Carol,said Prudence reproachfully, wiping her eyes,"how could you start us all off like that?"
18413Oh, Des Moines is quite a city, is n''t it? 18413 Oh, Larkie, will you run up- stairs and bring my lace handkerchief?
18413Oh, Prudence, do you suppose the doctors will let me come in and watch them bandage your head? 18413 Oh, are you ready?"
18413Oh, father,she said quite snappily,"is n''t that just like me?"
18413Oh, we''ve had it in the house quite a while,said Prudence, adding swiftly,"Is n''t it warm, Connie?
18413Oh, why does n''t father do it?
18413Oh, yes, Lark,suggested Carol finally,"do n''t you remember she said the Bible was an allegory?"
18413Oh,--whatever will Mattie Moore say to me? 18413 Or this afternoon?
18413Papa says his feet are not wet, and that you are a big simpleton, and-- Oh, did you make cinnamon rolls to- day, Prue? 18413 People do not have sense in their bones, Fairy, and-- and-- shall I say professor, or just plain Mister?"
18413Prudence Starr,she cried furiously,"how dare you say such things of us?
18413Prudence, shall we have tea or coffee?
18413Put them on the table, Fairy dearest, and-- leave me for a little while, will you? 18413 Ride, sir?
18413Say, Grant, what''s a fellow like you doing on such a fifth- rate job as this? 18413 Say, Prudence, is n''t this that old brown coat of father''s?"
18413Shall I go down now? 18413 Shall I put flannel on her chest and throat, father?"
18413Shall I raise a window?
18413Shall we continue the meeting, Ladies?
18413She''s very pretty and sweet, is n''t she?
18413Sweet corn?
18413The Methodist minister''s little girl, is n''t it? 18413 The front room?"
18413The whole summer?
18413Then you had another coat?
18413To- morrow, Prudence? 18413 Was it a bad sprain?
18413Was it all right?
18413Was this something of yours, Fairy?
18413We saw him use his wings when Connie yanked him out of the big maple, did n''t we, Lark?
18413Well, first, are you a Christian?
18413Well, if this did n''t belong to one of you, whose was it?
18413Well, what can I do for you, Miss Constance?
18413Well, when does your Des Moines tour come off? 18413 What are you going to do all evening?"
18413What are you going to do to him?
18413What did Miss Allen say?
18413What did he say?
18413What did you do to this soup, Prudence?
18413What do they say of us?
18413What do you think of that?
18413What do you want it for?
18413What else did Miss Allen say at school?
18413What happened?
18413What has all this to do with Miss Allen?
18413What has she been doing?
18413What has that got to do with it?
18413What have you been doing all night? 18413 What have you been doing, Lark?"
18413What in the world did you say that for? 18413 What in the world did you think I would walk from Des Moines for?"
18413What in the world would they ever do without you, Prudence? 18413 What in the world?"
18413What in the world?
18413What is going on to- night?
18413What is the matter, Lark?
18413What is the matter? 18413 What is the matter?
18413What is there about me that you do not like?
18413What is unusual about the circumstances?
18413What kind of a smell?
18413What now? 18413 What''s that got to do with it?"
18413What?
18413What?--Oh!--Which do you want, Jerry?
18413When''s he coming back?
18413When''s that Morley chap coming back?
18413Where did you get this stuff?
18413Where does he live? 18413 Where in the world did you get hold of an idea like that?"
18413Where in the world did you get such an idea as that?
18413Where is he now?
18413Where is your baggage?
18413Where is your umbrella?
18413Where''s Connie? 18413 Which does your father prefer?"
18413Which is your way of saying that you do not like me, is n''t it?
18413Which of your professors do you like best?
18413Who shut that door?
18413Who wrote it? 18413 Who?
18413Whose coat is this, Prudence?
18413Whose?
18413Why are n''t you going to be married?
18413Why did n''t you talk it over with me, Prudence?
18413Why do n''t you? 18413 Why we wanted to make----""You and Lark?"
18413Why, you see, father, Jerry lives with his aunt in Des Moines,--he told you that, did n''t he? 18413 Why?
18413Why?
18413Why?
18413Will five dollars be enough?
18413Will you be warm enough?
18413Will you get the sirup now?
18413Will you kindly jab this into me?
18413Will you loan me twenty dollars until after Christmas, Connie?
18413Will you tell him that Constance Starr wishes to speak to him, privately, and that it is very important?
18413Wo n''t Fairy make us? 18413 Wo n''t Prudence tell you?"
18413Would n''t it be more fun to have the girls in for a little while?
18413Would n''t you like a little nice, hot, oyster stew?
18413Would you have promised, if she had asked it?
18413Yes, and have refreshments for just you two?
18413Yes, and have refreshments for just you two?
18413Yes, may I? 18413 Yes, of course.--When is he coming back?"
18413Yes?
18413You are Miss Starr, are n''t you?
18413You are Mr. Harmer, are n''t you? 18413 You are Mrs. Adams, are n''t you?
18413You see?
18413You''ve been up all night, have n''t you, dearest?
18413You-- did Prudence send you?
18413Your eyes are brown, are n''t they?
18413''Carol,''said Miss Adams gently,''you forgot yourself, did n''t you?''
18413A Methodist parsonage is not just in your line, is it?"
18413A little later he said,"Do you mind if I go upstairs and talk to your father a few minutes?
18413And Carol added,"Will you kiss Prudence good night for us, and tell her we kept praying all the time?
18413And Prudence said,''Now, father, on your word of honor, did you knock me down with that ball on purpose?''
18413And before Prudence was fairly inside the door, she demanded,"What is it?
18413And do you attend the college at Mount Mark?
18413And he said,''I wonder if your sister would n''t go?
18413And if ever I can help with poor little Hattie, will you let me know?
18413And she ca n''t talk about it yet, so be careful what you say, will you?"
18413And this exquisite board?"
18413And what do you suppose the weird creature did with it?
18413And what would the girls say if I should go back on them?
18413And when Connie came to the telephone, she cried,"Oh, you blessed little child, why did n''t you tell me?
18413And when we are better acquainted, will you let me call you Prudence?"
18413And who is Fairy?
18413And why should he be at it so early in the morning?
18413And wo n''t you stay for dinner with us?
18413And you ca n''t be happy without me, can you?"
18413And, do you mind if I just suggest that you go a little slow with Prudence?
18413Are n''t those twins unique?
18413Are n''t you going to give us one?"
18413Are the girls up yet?"
18413Are you coming to stay?"
18413Are you in a very great hurry this afternoon?
18413Are you raising him, too?"
18413Are you referring to this Babbling creature now?"
18413Are you sick?
18413Are your feelings hurt?"
18413Are your feet wet?"
18413As soon as they finished supper, Lark said,"Do n''t you think we''d better go right to bed, Prue?
18413Babbie''s such a giddy scatter- brained youngster, you''d think he''d prefer----""Do you like him, Fairy?
18413Before they went up- stairs, Lark inquired sarcastically:"I suppose, Fairy, you''ll don your best blue silk in honor of this event?"
18413But I guess you are n''t that kind, after all?"
18413But Prudence asked,"Where did you get this money, Connie?"
18413But do n''t you think it only fair that you should give me a chance to try?"
18413But does n''t the snow make you think-- pretty things, Prudence?
18413But her eyes clouded a little as she asked,"Do you think they would rather have Aunt Grace than me?"
18413But how in the world will you get home?
18413But is n''t it a nuisance to have him tagging along home with me, when I might be having such a good time with you and the twins, or father?
18413But is n''t it strange that the prettiest and dearest one of them all should be the oldest daughter?"
18413But it is perfectly glorious to have five hundred dollars, is n''t it?
18413But one simply ca n''t tell beforehand what to expect, can one?
18413But please, Prudence, wo n''t you punish me some way without letting Lark know about it?
18413But she looked so-- heartsick, did n''t she, Fairy?"
18413But the next question,--can you pass a strict physical examination?"
18413But what has happened to my girls?
18413But what has that to do with it?
18413But what of that?
18413But when she reached the top, and peered around her, she found little comfort,--and no desirable company?
18413But why?
18413But you will write to me, wo n''t you?"
18413But, Prudence, you wo n''t let Carol know, will you?
18413But-- doesn''t it seem wrong, father, that-- a girl-- that I-- should love Jerry more than-- you and the girls?
18413CHAPTER XIII SHE ORDERS HER LIFE"Prudence, are you going to Aunt Grace''s early in the summer, or late?"
18413Ca n''t we go somewhere else?"
18413Ca n''t you tell nice, interesting, mild stories?"
18413Ca n''t you wait just five minutes?
18413Can a girl tell a man she prefers to go home with her family, without hurting his feelings?
18413Can you carry her, father?"
18413Carrie''s my twin, and-- oh, father, do n''t you see how it is?"
18413Come now, as you stood at the window there, what were you thinking?"
18413Connie ran in excitedly, wanting to know what was the matter with everybody, and were n''t they to have any luncheon?
18413Could n''t you have pretended to be interested?
18413Dare she trust Lark in such a crisis?
18413Did I ever tell you what Carol said about that kitchen- dining- room- living- room combination at Exminster?
18413Did I judge my children by what was in their hearts, or just by the trouble they made me?"
18413Did n''t God bring us together, and make us love each other?
18413Did the twins ever tell you what happened the first day of school?"
18413Did you call me, Prudence?"
18413Did you ever have a coat like this, Prudence?
18413Did you ever have five hundred dollars before?
18413Did you ever see a rector jumping a three- wire fence, and running full speed across his front yard, in pursuit of a flying family?
18413Did you find out?
18413Did you make any noise coming down the stairs?"
18413Do n''t they talk of their professors at home at all?"
18413Do n''t you like me then, after all?"
18413Do n''t you really think an older woman is needed?"
18413Do n''t you remember the sheep and the goats?
18413Do n''t you remember what Orlando said about Rosalind,--''just as tall as my heart''?
18413Do n''t you see how it is?
18413Do n''t you see it is?
18413Do n''t you think He intended us for each other?
18413Do n''t you think he''s tiresome?
18413Do n''t you think our love for you is big enough to make us happy in seeing you happy?
18413Do n''t you think there is something awe- inspiring in the idea of just turning a little knob on the wall, and flooding a whole room with light?
18413Do n''t you want some more fudge?
18413Do n''t you?"
18413Do you expect the Ladies to look right through it?"
18413Do you get seasick when you climb high?"
18413Do you know what the scholars call Professor Duke?"
18413Do you know where the bottom of that chair has gone?"
18413Do you know which way is nearest to a house?
18413Do you like blue eyes?
18413Do you like riding in a car?"
18413Do you mean to say they have never told you about it?"
18413Do you mind if I ask you a few questions?"
18413Do you mind if I move my chair a little closer?"
18413Do you mind if I tie you in, to make assurance doubly sure?"
18413Do you remember how I shoved him away, and shuddered?
18413Do you remember that hill, father?
18413Do you see it?"
18413Do you see?
18413Do you suppose I could wipe my fingers with a handkerchief that had been in one of his pockets?"
18413Do you suppose you can do that, Jerry?
18413Do you think I want an invalid on my hands?"
18413Do you think it would be all right to send Limber- Limb Grant a letter of thanks for it?
18413Do you think it would be all right?
18413Do you think we are as despicable as all that?
18413Do you think we''d better tell Prudence all about it?"
18413Do you think you can let me have it?"
18413Do you want it a little shorter, Connie, or is that about right?"
18413Do you want me to call you Jerry still?"
18413Do you want to come with me?"
18413Do you want to keep us away from her to attend to you?"
18413Do you want to make Carrie worse?"
18413Do you wish you had never met me?"
18413Do you?"
18413Do your friends call you Jerry?"
18413Do-- do you love me so much, my dearest?"
18413Does it pain you very badly?
18413Does n''t he require sleep, as the rest of us do?"
18413Does n''t it seem-- wicked?"
18413Does she seem sorry that I am away?
18413Does your head still ache?"
18413Even Prudence laughed a little at this, but she said,"Why do n''t you scold her?"
18413Every mother there was asking in her heart,"Did I punish my children just for the effect on me?
18413Explain it to the girls, will you?"
18413Fairy sank back, intensely mortified, and Miss Carr chirped brightly:"Oh, Fairy, dear, did you write this little poem?
18413Fairy stifled her laughter with difficulty, and said in a low voice,"Would n''t you like a little nice, hot, oyster stew?"
18413Father''s coat, I mean?"
18413Father, will you put on your black suit, or are you too busy?
18413Five dollars you say you want?"
18413From Des Moines?"
18413Go to bed, wo n''t you, sweetheart?
18413Goodness knows I eat enough-- Why, what is the matter?"
18413Had the awful twins filled it with needles for the reception of the poor Ladies?
18413Harmer?"
18413Harold?"
18413Harold?"
18413Has Connie been in mischief?"
18413Has the parsonage a porch?"
18413Have I ever failed you?
18413Have you been eating?
18413He closed the door after him, did n''t he, Lark?"
18413He offered me his handkerchief to wipe it off?
18413He stepped into the closet, did n''t he, Lark?"
18413Honestly, may I go up to- morrow?
18413How can you think of such sweet little things?
18413How did you get him in the closet?
18413How do they expect parsonage people to keep up appearances when they have n''t any money?"
18413How far is it to Mount Mark?
18413How many times have I told you not to tell weird stories like that?
18413How much will the interest be on five dollars?"
18413How old are you?"
18413I am an abominably solid sleeper, am I not?
18413I do not have to go, do I?
18413I love houses with porches, do n''t you?
18413I thought father had forgotten to take his watch with him, but it was n''t there.--Do you really think it was Sunday he forgot it, Fairy?"
18413I''ll be just at the head of the stairs, and if Prudence wants me, you will call, wo n''t you, Mr. Harmer?
18413I''ll----""Prudence, do you use half milk and half water for creamed tomato soup, or all milk?"
18413I''m not going to get married, so it would be silly to fall in love, would n''t it?"
18413I''m so fond of crackers and milk, are n''t you, Babbie?"
18413I-- I like it better to be with my sisters than----""Than with me?
18413I-- you will be nice to him, wo n''t you?"
18413If I fail them, will they ever trust anybody else?
18413If I make you some soup, will you eat it?"
18413If he commands her?"
18413Imes?"
18413Instantly Connie was asked the all- important question:"Are your feet wet?"
18413Is Jerry coming to spend Christmas with us?"
18413Is anything wrong?
18413Is anything wrong?"
18413Is it my fault?"
18413Is it very awful?"
18413Is it very nice?
18413Is n''t it a beauty?"
18413Is n''t it a funny name, father?
18413Is n''t it about time for the twins to get here, Prudence?
18413Is n''t it nice that we can count on Fairy''s remembering?"
18413Is n''t it pretty?
18413Is n''t that a handsome Venus?
18413Is n''t this a lovely yard?
18413Is that all right?
18413Is that the school over there?"
18413Is that where you live?"
18413Is there any way to turn a person down without letting him know it?
18413Is your father very strict?
18413It comes in very handy right now, does n''t it?
18413It does n''t seem so bad, does it?
18413It is a sad thing to think of a college professor being called Fairy all her life, is n''t it?
18413It must have taken every cent of your money, did n''t it?
18413It was mighty lucky he happened along, was n''t it?
18413It''s a great honor for me to have the privilege of bringing up four clever girls to do great things,--don''t you think?
18413It''s-- do you-- do you notice a-- a funny smell in here?
18413Jerry Harmer, you need me to take care of you, do n''t you?"
18413Leaning forward suddenly, she said,"Miss Starr, why do the twins dislike me?"
18413Let me run up- stairs first, wo n''t you?
18413Let me take it to- morrow morning, will you?
18413Let''s just be friends now, ca n''t we-- until later-- for a long time yet?
18413May I examine your foot?"
18413May I have it?
18413May I keep it?
18413May I open the door, Prudence?"
18413May n''t I read it aloud?"
18413Maybe if you will send me a paper and pencil-- I can write him a note now?
18413Morgan?"
18413Morgan?"
18413Now what are you going to do as a last resort?''
18413Now what do you reckon he meant by that, Fairy?
18413Now, do not talk too much, Prue, and-- what shall we have for dinner?
18413Now, why?
18413Now, will I dare to come back to- morrow if I stay for dinner to- night?
18413Now,--oh, Fairy, did you remember to dust the back of the dresser in our bedroom?"
18413Of course, the reporters can practise balancing them scientifically,--but how does it happen that they always have aquiline noses?
18413Oh, Connie, wo n''t you turn the clock a little this way, so I can see it?
18413Oh, it does look nice, does n''t it, Fairy?
18413Oh, that''s Christian Science, is n''t it?
18413Oh, what is it?"
18413On my right side, Fairy, do you understand what that means?
18413Or am I imagining it?
18413Professor likes women to be dignified and intellectual and deep, and----""Then why on earth did he ask me to go?"
18413Prudence knows it, but she did not make me promise to quit that?"
18413Red crosses make a very pretty decoration, do n''t you think they do, Lark?"
18413Shall I get the maple sirup for the pancakes?
18413She''s as bad as the priest and Levite, is n''t she?"
18413Should they go farther?
18413So I said,''Do you mean Prudence, or one of the twins?''
18413Something was hurting them, but whether it was their fear of the wrath of Prudence, or the twinges of tender consciences,--who can say?
18413Sometime will you let me ride your wheel?"
18413Suppose you should see a blackbird running a race down the street with a sparrow, what would you call it?''
18413Thank you, Lark,--isn''t it a pretty handkerchief?
18413That he should come first?
18413The Ladies smiled, and Miss Carr, laughing lightly, said,"She is an attentive creature, is n''t she?"
18413The boy could n''t imagine, and professor said,''What would you call that, Carol?''
18413The parables, for instance,--what are they?
18413The question is, What shall it be?"
18413The soup is ready, and piping hot,--but what is it you want me to say?"
18413The very best and closest of friends?"
18413The what?"
18413Then as Prudence rose to go home, she asked eagerly,"Do you think the twins will like me now?"
18413Then as he turned toward the door, he asked carelessly,"Is he very good- looking, Prudence?"
18413Then he said,''Now, Carol, if I was the king''s eldest son, what would you call me?''
18413Then leaning forward:"What do you do, Miss Avery, when you meet people you dislike at very first sight?"
18413Then said Prudence, seemingly of her own free will, but really directed by an all- controlling Providence,"Is n''t it great fun to ride a bicycle?
18413Then she added rather shyly,"Fairy, are you ashamed of me sometimes?
18413Then she inquired in a low voice,"Did you tell him why you wanted it?"
18413Then she said significantly,"I suppose you are going to divide with us?"
18413Then with the admirable board beneath my arm, I mount to the heights of-- Say, twins, did n''t I see an old buggy seat out in the barn to- day?
18413Then you must come to the door and say,''Would n''t you like a little oyster stew?''
18413Then,"Did you send him anything, Prue?"
18413There is school to- morrow, is n''t there?"
18413There''s no use waiting, is there?
18413They were exasperating, and humiliating, too, but what did they do that was really mean?
18413They will tell you if you ask them, wo n''t they?"
18413This is almost bordering on talent, is n''t it?
18413Us?"
18413Was she complaining about us?
18413Was the ride very hard on your ankle?"
18413We are, are n''t we?
18413We ask her,"What if you had not gone out for a ride that morning?"
18413We did it for a good purpose, do n''t you see we did?
18413Well, she asked us a riddle,''When is a dining- room not a dining- room?''
18413What are you going to do?''
18413What are you talking about?"
18413What do you care about college?"
18413What do you suppose could have sent the lover away like that?"
18413What does it smell like?"
18413What had Miss Allen told their sister?
18413What have I done?
18413What have they been doing?
18413What have they done to- day?
18413What in the world do you want the back of the dresser dusted for?
18413What in the world had happened to separate in the morning these two who had been kissing so frankly in the back yard the evening before?
18413What in the world has she done?"
18413What in the world is that?"
18413What is his line?"
18413What is the matter?
18413What matter?
18413What shall I do?"
18413What shall we have?"
18413What time is it, Fairy?"
18413What was he doing in the hickory grove?"
18413What was her errand?
18413What was it you said?"
18413What will they do when you get married?"
18413What would etiquette think of her, after this?
18413What would the-- others do without you?
18413What''s the job?"
18413What, then, was the explanation?
18413What----""I forget what you told me to say,"whispered Prudence wretchedly,"what was it?
18413Whatever had they been doing now?
18413When the college girls are here, and you are all talking so brilliantly, are n''t you kind of mortified that I am so stupid and dull?
18413Where are they?
18413Where did it come from?"
18413Where did you get it?"
18413Where''s the money?"
18413Who could have sense on such a day, with such a girl as this?
18413Who would keep the parsonage?
18413Who would look after you?"
18413Who would raise the girls?
18413Why am I always so ravenously hungry in the morning?
18413Why are you all hugging the register, may I ask?
18413Why are you staying away?"
18413Why did n''t you call me?
18413Why do n''t they keep their pledges?
18413Why do n''t they pay for their religion?"
18413Why do n''t you mind me, and do as I tell you?
18413Why do n''t you sit still?
18413Why do they call it Mount Mark?"
18413Why in the world did n''t you tell us beforehand?"
18413Why was Lark going upstairs?
18413Why wo n''t the twins give me a chance?
18413Why, then, do you go back on me now, when you really need me?"
18413Why?
18413Why?"
18413Will that be all right?
18413Will you be down soon?"
18413Will you carry me in?"
18413Will you come in?"
18413Will you do it?
18413Will you do that, twinnies?"
18413Will you do that?"
18413Will you do this for me?"
18413Will you eat in the dining- room?"
18413Will you forgive me, Connie?
18413Will you forgive me?
18413Will you promise?"
18413Wo n''t it be a good joke on her?"
18413Wo n''t that be better?"
18413Wo n''t that do?"
18413Wo n''t that do?"
18413Wo n''t they break your pledge if you leave them out?"
18413Wo n''t you be a good girl now, and not make sister feel badly about it?
18413Would I ever go to bed without making sure that Connie was safe and sound?"
18413Would n''t Connie say that was disgracing the parsonage?"
18413Would n''t it be glorious?"
18413Would n''t the twins have laughed?
18413Would that be just or fair?
18413Would you keep these pearls on, Fairy, or would you take them off?"
18413Would your father let you spend a week?
18413You are the soul of the parsonage, are n''t you?"
18413You call me Jerry, will you?"
18413You know I didn''t!--But-- maybe Jerry wo n''t forgive me now?"
18413You know what an atheist is, do n''t you?
18413You know what heresy is, do n''t you?
18413You might get cross, and take them away from me.--Did you go to college?"
18413You see, father, I really feel that this is a crisis in the life of the parsonage----""How long does a parsonage usually live?"
18413You want me to call you Jerry, do n''t you?"
18413You will stay, wo n''t you?"
18413You''re Mr. Starr, the Methodist minister at Mount Mark, are n''t you?"
18413You''re not just fooling me, are you?
18413You''ve never had a vacation in your life, and father promised Aunt Grace on his reputation as a minister, did n''t you, papa?"
18413[ Illustration:"Yes, and have refreshments for just you two?"]
18413are you asleep?"
