5311 | Was that the train the Professor had taken? |
5311 | Well, I said to the Professor-- to myself I mean-- let''s see: what_ is_ a good book? |
5311 | What I say is, who has ever gone out into high roads and hedges to bring literature home to the plain man? |

172 | Are you trying to kid me? 172 Bock, what are you doing in the yard?" |
172 | But if so, why the deuce would he advertise having done so? |
172 | But speaking of the Haunted Bookshop, what''s your special interest in that Oliver Cromwell book? |
172 | But suppose it''s charged? |
172 | Ca n''t I? |
172 | Can I get a room here? |

172 | How the deuce was I to know you knew nothing about it? |
172 | Hullo, Mr. Mifflin,he called,"where are you?" |
172 | Hullo, hullo? |
172 | Hullo, is that Wordsworth----? 172 Hullo? |
172 | Hullo? |
172 | Hullo? |
172 | I beg your pardon,said the caller, pleasantly;"is this the proprietor?" |
172 | I hope she does n''t mind keeping the shop while we celebrate? |
172 | I hope you will let me help you this evening? |
172 | I read in an ad the other day-- perhaps you wrote that, too? |
172 | I suppose it would all make good advertising copy? |
172 | I suppose you refer to Whitewash and Gilt? |

172 | Is to- morrow too soon? |
172 | It''s perfectly all right about sending Titania? |
172 | Look here, you would n''t go to a doctor, a medical specialist, and tell him he ought to advertise in papers and magazines? 172 Look here, you''re a bookseller? |
172 | Look here,he said,"I''m awfully sorry-- are you hurt?" |
172 | Look here,he said,"what does this mean?" |
172 | May I see it? |
172 | Me? 172 Miss Chapman?" |

172 | Who was the butler whose name was associated with the dish? |
172 | Who''s he? |

172 | You do n''t smoke in bed, do you? 172 You insolent pup,"panted Roger,"do you want any more?" |
172 | You''ll grant everything pointed against you? 172 : Wouldst thou both eat thy cake, and have it? 172 A female voice-- possibly Mrs. J. F. Smith-- cried outWhat''s that smell of burning?" |
172 | A man-- he knew now-- could fall in love in five minutes, but how did it work with girls? |

172 | Had I better put it in a safe place?" |
172 | Had everyone gone insane? |
172 | Had the girl been kidnapped while he overslept? |
172 | Have you ever come across Andreyev''s Confessions of a Little Man During Great Days? |
172 | Have you ever met a man without wondering what shining sorrows he hides from the world, what contrast between vision and accomplishment torments him? |
172 | Have you found that it pays? |
172 | Have you read Sassoon? |
172 | Have you seen it?" |
172 | He entered and bought a dozen white carnations, and then, as if by an afterthought, asked"Have you any wire?" |
172 | He was wondering how long it might take for a girl to fall in love? |
172 | He''s a duck, is n''t he?" |
172 | How about Bernhardi? |
172 | How about it?" |
172 | How could he explain? |
172 | How did you like Erewhon? |
172 | How do you dope it out?" |
172 | How was I to do this with dish- washing? |
172 | How was I to know she wanted The Blazed Trail?" |
172 | I am rather nervous about the experiment, but it is a compliment to the shop, is n''t it?" |
172 | I suppose you know you''re taking a human bombshell into the arsenal?" |
172 | I suppose you would say that it is no concern of the bookseller to try to increase the public appetite for books?" |
172 | I wonder if he and Weintraub go in for some first- edition faking, or some such stunt as that? |
172 | I wonder if that neighbourhood is a safe place for a girl to work in?" |
172 | I wonder if they give them The Lays to read in school nowadays? |
172 | I wonder what a German bookseller is like? |
172 | I wonder why? |
172 | I''d love to be a waiter, a barber, a floorwalker----""Roger, my dear,"said Helen,"why do n''t you get on with the reading?" |
172 | If a jam factory employs a trained chemist, why is n''t it worth a publisher''s while to employ an expert book analyzer? |
172 | If he really expected to get into Weintraub''s house, why had he not laid his plans more carefully? |
172 | If that is n''t an absurdity, what is? |
172 | Is any one hurt?" |
172 | Is n''t that noble? |
172 | Just mention my name to her, will you? |
172 | K.?" |
172 | Look here, here''s a copy of Tooke''s Pantheon----""What''s the idea?" |
172 | MEREDITH-- What do you mean? |
172 | Maybe you''re in politics, hey?" |
172 | Mifflin?" |
172 | Mifflin?" |
172 | My dear, what do you say to a glass of sherry all round?" |
172 | My dear, would it bore you if we had a go at the old Christmas Stories?" |
172 | Now what the deuce would that lunatic want to have it rebound for?" |
172 | Of what avail to flood the world with Chapman Chips if the girl herself should come to any harm? |
172 | Oldham?" |
172 | Or Latzko''s Men in War, which was so damned true that the government suppressed it? |
172 | Patrol the back yard all night? |
172 | Perhaps I can drop in on Monday when Mr. Mifflin''s away, and put coal on the furnace for you, or something of that sort?" |
172 | Remind me to lock it up somewhere, will you?" |
172 | Should he run downstairs and across the street? |
172 | Should he slink out of the house? |
172 | Some more of the eggs?" |
172 | Subway guards? |
172 | Surround a man with Carlyle, Emerson, Thoreau, Chesterton, Shaw, Nietzsche, and George Ade-- would you wonder at his getting excited? |
172 | Taxicab drivers? |
172 | The only question is, does it pay the man who pays for the ad? |
172 | Then why should it be either advertised or returned? |
172 | There are bound to be some-- who ever heard of a German without offspring? |
172 | There is no secret passage between Gissing Street and the laboratories of the Ritz?" |
172 | This bland, slick, talkative bookseller, was he arranging some blackmailing scheme to kidnap the girl and wring blood- money out of her father? |
172 | Were you coming to see Roger?" |
172 | What WOULD she think? |
172 | What are you and Weintraub framing up here in Philadelphia?" |
172 | What are you doing, giving the poor child a Chautauqua lecture? |
172 | What brings you to this distant outpost?" |
172 | What business is it of yours? |
172 | What damnable complot was this? |
172 | What do you make of that?" |
172 | What does it matter if Wordsworth wrote sentences almost as long as those of Walt Whitman or Mr. Will H. Hays, if only he wrote a great poem? |
172 | What had been happening across the way? |
172 | What is it that we find in every form of life? |
172 | What on earth was he to do? |
172 | What right had I to shirk in a quiet bookshop when so many men were suffering and dying through no fault of their own? |
172 | What would Mr. Mifflin say if he knew you had been breaking into his house and frightening me half to death? |
172 | What would happen to a cat if she had to live in a room tapestried with catnip? |
172 | What would he have said of the four- year shambles we have watched with sickened hearts? |
172 | What would you think of a base public that would go past my shop day after day and let the high- minded occupant die of starvation? |
172 | What would you think of a physician who saw men suffering from a curable disease and did nothing to alleviate their sufferings? |
172 | What''s he doing, taking her joy- riding?" |
172 | What''s the idea?" |
172 | When I saw that guy go into the shop with his own key, what could I think but that you were in league with him? |
172 | When did a bookseller ever make any real contribution to the world''s happiness? |
172 | Where are you?" |
172 | Where''d he go at?" |
172 | Who do you suppose it was?" |
172 | Who ever heard of a German without a dachshund?" |
172 | Who knows? |
172 | Whom can I curse, whom can I judge, when we are all alike unfortunate? |
172 | Why do n''t you come with us to the movies?" |
172 | Why not make dish- washing my balm and poultice? |
172 | Why should n''t they make both?" |
172 | Why( for instance) had he not made some attempt to find out how many there were in the household? |
172 | Will you forgive me?" |
172 | Wo n''t you come out and dine with me in the country this evening, and see my things?" |
172 | Wo n''t you stay and have supper with me? |
172 | Would he have been attacked if he had not taken the book cover from the drug store? |
172 | Yes-- do you remember when Pomona and Jonas visit an insane asylum on their honeymoon? |
172 | You are not hoaxing me? |
172 | You must have watched some infinitesimal red spider on a fence rail, bustling along-- why and whither? |
172 | You remember my telling you that Mr. Chapman wants to send his daughter to work in the shop? |
172 | You say Mifflin has gone out to see your father? |
172 | You say your man is a second- hand bookseller?" |
172 | You see those children going down the street to school? |
172 | You want to wash your hands? |
172 | [ 2] NOTE WHILE PROOFREADING: Surely this phrase was unconsciously lifted from R. L. S. But where does the original occur? |
172 | and in the meantime, what was he to do? |
172 | cried Mifflin, in agitation,"you have not heard of Samuel Butler, the author of The Way of All Flesh? |
172 | said Titania sharply,"what are you doing?" |

6365 | Tell on him?" |
6365 | Then your name is Pep Clover?" |
6365 | They come from a want of sleep, and how long do you suppose he can stand that sort of thing and his work here without breaking down? |
6365 | They were soon at the table, and having by a lucky chance( or was it the girl''s natural tact?) |
6365 | To Richard came the ever- recurring, thought, what next? |
6365 | Vere ist der poy now?" |
6365 | What can have become of Tom?" |
6365 | What did he accuse you of?" |
6365 | What do you think I am, to take money from you for that? |
6365 | What do you want to advertise?" |
6365 | What have you done with them?" |
6365 | What more can a boy wish?" |
6365 | What regiment was he in?" |
6365 | When will he be back?" |
6365 | When?" |
6365 | Where are Nan and the rest?" |
6365 | Where are you from, if I may ask?" |
6365 | Where did you come from?" |
6365 | Where did you go to?" |
6365 | Where do you live?" |
6365 | Where''s Betty? |
6365 | Where''s your dad and your marm and sister Mary?" |
6365 | Where? |
6365 | Where?" |
6365 | Which way do you intend to go-- up or down?" |
6365 | Who had my place before?" |
6365 | Who knows but what I might run across some one who knew him during the war, and could witness his application?" |
6365 | Who knows but what those letters did n''t amount to much after all?" |
6365 | Who knows but what, if he is left alone, he may not try some day to get you in even deeper? |
6365 | Why do n''t you give poor Tom a drink? |
6365 | Will you be long?" |
6365 | Will you go along?" |
6365 | Will you read these letters for me? |
6365 | Will you take a hand in?" |
6365 | Wo n''t you sit down?" |
6365 | Wonder what it means?" |
6365 | Would he succeed or fail? |
6365 | Would you like a drink?" |
6365 | You must have time to get them?" |
6365 | Your father?" |
6365 | alone?" |
6365 | he exclaimed,"Off early?" |
6365 | so here you are?" |
6365 | what will she say? |
6365 | what yer take me for?" |
41909 | A simple country girl, what can she know about such things? 41909 And a half?" |
41909 | And ask him just three questions; no more? |
41909 | And why do you carpet your floor with them? 41909 And yet,"she mused,"am I sorry? |
41909 | And yet,she mused,"what could have been her reason for haunting our store at that hour of the night? |
41909 | Anyway, someone did, did n''t they? 41909 Are you hurt?" |
41909 | Beg pardon? |
41909 | Brother? |
41909 | But Dick? |
41909 | But Florence, where in the world did you get those marvelous etchings? |
41909 | But Laurie, old dear,she protested,"why should I ask three questions of you? |
41909 | But do you know--he sat up straight and there was a gleam in his eye,"do you know when I saw that barber fellow last?" |
41909 | But her past? |
41909 | But how am I to surprise myself? |
41909 | But how? |
41909 | But is it? 41909 But must we select one person, only one?" |
41909 | But not bruised, nor bloody, nor anything like that? |
41909 | But then, what does it matter? |
41909 | But,she was brought up short by a sudden thought,"if he gave her his pass- out, how''s he to leave the building?" |
41909 | But-- but how am I to get out of the building with it? 41909 But-- but your car?" |
41909 | Ca n''t I come to see you? |
41909 | Cash? |
41909 | Cordie? |
41909 | Could you? |
41909 | Did you recognize in the hands of some violinist the Stradivarius that was stolen from your grandfather fifty years ago? |
41909 | Do I dare? |
41909 | Do n''t everybody on the pier know me? 41909 Do n''t you know it is? |
41909 | Do n''t you know? |
41909 | Do n''t you think they''re grand? |
41909 | Do n''t you wish you knew? |
41909 | Do you keep Peck''s Bad Boy? 41909 Do you really want one of those bags?" |
41909 | Do you remember the time I found you-- when you fainted in the Art Museum? |
41909 | Do you suppose he caught that man-- the one who had been following me? |
41909 | Florence,she said at last,"do you know who Veny LeCarte was?" |
41909 | Friend of yours, I take it? |
41909 | Frighten me? |
41909 | Gone? |
41909 | Have you the Broncho Buster Boys? |
41909 | Have you the Elsie books? 41909 He did, did he? |
41909 | How can one secure happiness? |
41909 | How can you do that? |
41909 | How much am I bid? |
41909 | How should I know? 41909 How should I know?" |
41909 | How-- how--"How did they find out? 41909 How?" |
41909 | How? |
41909 | I wonder when her appreciation will reach down as deep as her pocketbook? 41909 I wonder why she did that?" |
41909 | I wonder,she said finally,"I do wonder why Cordie does not confide in me? |
41909 | I wonder,she went on thoughtfully,"why I do n''t cut her adrift? |
41909 | If she''s a real person and not a spectre, what is she doing here? 41909 Is this a good book?" |
41909 | Is this the Green Room? |
41909 | Let me run your car, will you? 41909 May one have happiness?" |
41909 | Might have known what? |
41909 | My adventure? |
41909 | Not any at all? |
41909 | Not-- not the one who was following me? |
41909 | Now on what floor is furniture sold? |
41909 | Now where is that brother of hers? |
41909 | Now why would one wear such a curious ornament? |
41909 | Now,said Tim in a sterner voice,"tell me how Pat O''Hara''s horse comes to be lyin''there in the street?" |
41909 | Oh, he is, eh? |
41909 | Perhaps,she told herself,"he is some artist getting pictures from life; or an actor gathering local color for a play, or--""Is your table in order?" |
41909 | Ready to go? 41909 Sales- people?" |
41909 | So that was what the guard meant when he asked where my brother was? 41909 So that was what the man and the woman meant by the train leaving at eleven- thirty?" |
41909 | Suppose there''ll be a scene, but who cares? 41909 The answer,"whispered Lucile with a little giggle,"the answer, if they say''Is this a good book?'' |
41909 | The man and the woman? |
41909 | The one you cut cord with? |
41909 | Then where is she? |
41909 | Tim who? |
41909 | Traded? 41909 Was that all?" |
41909 | Well now, what does this mean? |
41909 | Well, that''s me? |
41909 | Wha-- what are they? |
41909 | Wha-- where am I? |
41909 | What am I to do? |
41909 | What are you dreaming about? |
41909 | What bag? |
41909 | What bag? |
41909 | What did you get? |
41909 | What do you suppose? |
41909 | What does he want? 41909 What has happened?" |
41909 | What in the world can it mean? |
41909 | What man? 41909 What say?" |
41909 | What you got in that bag? |
41909 | What you tryin''to do? 41909 What''s this?" |
41909 | What''s to be afraid of? |
41909 | What-- what did you expect to find? |
41909 | What? |
41909 | What? |
41909 | Where are we? |
41909 | Where is she? 41909 Where is she?" |
41909 | Where is she? |
41909 | Where''s Cordie? |
41909 | Where''s Laurie? |
41909 | Where-- where can she be going? |
41909 | Where-- where is Miss Diurno? |
41909 | Where-- where''s Tim? |
41909 | Where? |
41909 | Where? |
41909 | Who could believe that they could be such children? |
41909 | Who is James? |
41909 | Who is Jefrey Farnsworth? |
41909 | Who is Laurie Seymour; why is he so greatly interested in that particular book, and how does he come to know so much about it? |
41909 | Who put that there? |
41909 | Who will discover her? 41909 Who would have thought it?" |
41909 | Who''ll make it fifteen? 41909 Who''s Tim?" |
41909 | Who, Miss? |
41909 | Who-- who was the tall lady you were speaking to a moment ago? |
41909 | Who-- who''s there? |
41909 | Who? |
41909 | Whose is that? |
41909 | Why Cordie, what''s happened? |
41909 | Why did you steal my badge of serfdom? |
41909 | Why did you take my coat? |
41909 | Why did you, who are such a very great musician, undertake the humble task of assisting in a newspaper stunt? |
41909 | Why do n''t you tell me? |
41909 | Why not? |
41909 | Why not? |
41909 | Why should one hope for it when they may really have it? |
41909 | Why? |
41909 | Why? |
41909 | Will you sell me this? |
41909 | Wonder what that touch of scarlet means? |
41909 | Would n''t you, though? 41909 Yes, yes, how could you? |
41909 | You do n''t read about any, do you? |
41909 | You got it? |
41909 | You here? |
41909 | You still here? 41909 You-- you are Jefrey Farnsworth?" |
41909 | You-- you did n''t get him? |
41909 | Your what? |
41909 | Above all, what were the secrets of the crimson thread and the diamond set iron ring? |
41909 | And Cordie? |
41909 | And I? |
41909 | And indeed she was, for was it not hanging on the wall in that narrow passage at the door of which the mystery lady had appeared? |
41909 | And is n''t it funny that she should have a diamond set in it? |
41909 | And then what?" |
41909 | And then? |
41909 | And then? |
41909 | And then?" |
41909 | And was not the seal unbroken? |
41909 | And what of Lucile? |
41909 | And what right had she to spy upon her and upon Laurie? |
41909 | And why did they do it?" |
41909 | And why not? |
41909 | Are n''t they splendid? |
41909 | Are you in on it?" |
41909 | At an end, did I say? |
41909 | But a country girl? |
41909 | But had she been without baggage? |
41909 | But how? |
41909 | But tell me, why did you take a job as wrapper when you really was n''t poor and did n''t need the money?" |
41909 | But what was this? |
41909 | But who could it be? |
41909 | But who was she, after all? |
41909 | But why had her double made up her hair in her exact fashion, donned an elevator girl''s uniform and taken her elevator from her? |
41909 | But why? |
41909 | CHAPTER XI AS SEEN FROM THE STAIRWAY"Where in the world have you been?" |
41909 | CHAPTER XXIII MEG''S SECRET And what of Florence and Meg? |
41909 | Cordie? |
41909 | Could it be that as he smiled and nodded to her she caught in his eye a look of witching mockery? |
41909 | Could she have been in the city all this time? |
41909 | Could you have them hurry a little? |
41909 | Dared she hope it was the villains''car? |
41909 | Dick, do you suppose he''d care?" |
41909 | Did ever a girl pay so dearly for her own Christmas surprise? |
41909 | Did ever two girls have more to tell in one short noon hour? |
41909 | Did it not still contain Florence''s Christmas secret? |
41909 | Did you ever see a tiny bird balancing himself on a twig over a rushing waterfall and singing his little heart away? |
41909 | Do n''t you think so?" |
41909 | Do you believe that? |
41909 | Do you believe that?" |
41909 | Do you really? |
41909 | Do you suppose he could be a pirate in hiding?" |
41909 | Do you? |
41909 | Eh?" |
41909 | Even the watch- dog knows me? |
41909 | For a moment he gripped the girl''s hand, then turning to Tim, said:"You''ll look after her? |
41909 | Give''em their turn, ca n''t you?" |
41909 | Had her emotions led her astray? |
41909 | Had it been a footstep? |
41909 | Had she drawn that thread through the page of Lucile''s cash book? |
41909 | Had she ever seen her? |
41909 | Had she heard footsteps on the deck below? |
41909 | Had she really gone to work, or had she vanished? |
41909 | Had she seen a ghost, a ghost of herself? |
41909 | Had the Lady of the Spirit of Christmas vanished? |
41909 | Had the mystery woman put it there? |
41909 | Have n''t I enough to do in looking after myself?" |
41909 | Have they known each other long? |
41909 | He could not get it, and aside from that, what did he care for her, an elevator girl going home from work? |
41909 | He left me just enough to get back to Chicago, but what did I care? |
41909 | Her face turned crimson as she stammered:"Oh, what have I done? |
41909 | How can I ever thank you enough?" |
41909 | How did it happen that an elevator in a department store at night ran of its own accord with no one to work the lever? |
41909 | How had he spent that night? |
41909 | How had it happened that she was in the store that night at two hours before midnight? |
41909 | How had the unusual crimson thread come to be drawn into the cloth of the cape? |
41909 | How indeed? |
41909 | How is one to explain that?" |
41909 | How is that possible? |
41909 | How serious were the injuries of these, her friends? |
41909 | How shall I escape?" |
41909 | How was an officer to know who was in the right? |
41909 | How was she to account for that? |
41909 | How would it do to allow our friend Lucile to ask all the questions-- three around for each of us?" |
41909 | How-- how can I?" |
41909 | I must----"As she started toward the wrapping stand where stood the Mystery Lady, a voice at her elbow said:"Will you sell me this? |
41909 | I suppose you never wondered before how this huge building got heated? |
41909 | I wonder if I shall see him? |
41909 | I wonder if she is? |
41909 | I wonder what he''s done to James?" |
41909 | I wonder what it could mean?" |
41909 | I wonder when they''ll find him, and where? |
41909 | I wonder-- I do wonder why I did it?" |
41909 | If she had, what would her reason have been? |
41909 | If so, why did he let it get away from him?" |
41909 | If so, why did she not wish to go? |
41909 | In the dream still she saw the lady throw up her hands to exclaim:"That frayed thing? |
41909 | Is it quite gone yet? |
41909 | Is it the bag that he wants? |
41909 | Is this-- this where you always stay? |
41909 | It would seem so, else why would he consent so readily to the delay, which must mean proof one way or another? |
41909 | Know who wears skins like that? |
41909 | Listen--"Cordie listened as she worked, and this, from a score of pairs of lips, is what she heard:"Have you got the Alger books?" |
41909 | Little, or much? |
41909 | Lucile was about to follow, when a guard, touching her on the shoulder, demanded:"Got a pass?" |
41909 | Might not her belongings be in the hands of some landlady at the present time? |
41909 | Might she not owe a board bill? |
41909 | News boys, staring up at lady customers who slipped them pennies for papers, wondered:"Are you the Christmas Lady?" |
41909 | Nine times out of ten, when a woman customer says''Is this a good book?'' |
41909 | Now he''ll have to come back for it and I''ll--""Who''s Sam?" |
41909 | Now what about this bag?" |
41909 | On-- only do it, will you?" |
41909 | Open it and let him see what was inside? |
41909 | Open it? |
41909 | See that she gets safely back to her friends?" |
41909 | Shall I grasp your hand?" |
41909 | She was free from the elevator, but where was she? |
41909 | Shoppers gazed into faces of fellow shoppers to wonder:"Are you the Spirit of Christmas? |
41909 | Should she attempt to open them and make a leap for it? |
41909 | Should she go and tell the girl? |
41909 | Should she let the person in? |
41909 | Should she make one more attempt to rescue Laurie from whatever plight he may have gotten himself into? |
41909 | Should she turn back? |
41909 | So how could I desert him for gold?" |
41909 | So it is you who win? |
41909 | So why provoke a frown, and Christmas only two weeks away?" |
41909 | Such were those who crowded round the high stand where, with gavel in hand, the auctioneer cried the sale:"How much am I bid? |
41909 | Take my place, wo n''t you? |
41909 | That day I took your place and you wore my clothes I----""Who-- who''s that?" |
41909 | That was fair enough, was n''t it?" |
41909 | The street was gay with light and laughter, for was not this the night of all nights, the night before Christmas? |
41909 | Then at last he pulled out an oily cotton bag from somewhere far back in the corner and drew out of it-- what do you think? |
41909 | Then she said quietly:"Would you mind telling me about yourself?" |
41909 | Then suddenly,"Where''s it gone?" |
41909 | Tryin''to commit suicide? |
41909 | Was ever anyone in such a mess? |
41909 | Was he indeed the girl''s brother? |
41909 | Was her dream of a surprise for Christmas morning only a dream? |
41909 | Was it his? |
41909 | Was it that man? |
41909 | Was it the bag he wanted? |
41909 | Was n''t it terrible?" |
41909 | Was she in danger?" |
41909 | Was she really the poor, innocent little country girl she had thought her? |
41909 | Was that girl supposed to go? |
41909 | Was the hawk- eyed man who had attempted to gain possession of Florence''s bag the same one who had attempted to kidnap Cordie? |
41909 | Was this girl hiding from her people, attempting to run away? |
41909 | Was this some ominous omen? |
41909 | Were they tears of vexation or gratitude, or merely tired tears? |
41909 | What can you recommend?" |
41909 | What chance could there be of escape? |
41909 | What could it contain? |
41909 | What could she possibly know about interior decorating and furnishing? |
41909 | What customer could refuse such a book? |
41909 | What did Laurie know about that? |
41909 | What did he know about the bag? |
41909 | What did it mean? |
41909 | What did it really contain? |
41909 | What did that matter? |
41909 | What do you mean?" |
41909 | What does she know about the Mystery Lady? |
41909 | What had happened to the vanished author of"Blue Flames"? |
41909 | What had happened? |
41909 | What had she meant by the crimson trail she left behind? |
41909 | What had this lady been doing in that narrow passage? |
41909 | What if her fears proved true? |
41909 | What if it contained stolen goods? |
41909 | What in the world are you doing?" |
41909 | What indeed? |
41909 | What made you think there was?" |
41909 | What manner of plot had she been mixed up in? |
41909 | What might it not contain? |
41909 | What of Cordie? |
41909 | What proof had she that this beautiful creature was a thief? |
41909 | What say, Cordie? |
41909 | What shall I do?" |
41909 | What shall I do?" |
41909 | What should she do? |
41909 | What sort of an affair was this she was getting into, anyway? |
41909 | What train had gone at eleven- thirty? |
41909 | What was she to do? |
41909 | What was she to make of the face? |
41909 | What was that? |
41909 | What was the use? |
41909 | What was there to do? |
41909 | What was this ghost- like apparition that had appeared at the entrance to the long dark passage- way? |
41909 | What was this? |
41909 | What was to be done? |
41909 | What was to be done? |
41909 | What was to be the end of this terrible adventure? |
41909 | What was to come of her, once the season had closed? |
41909 | What were they to do once the car was overtaken? |
41909 | What will I care after that?" |
41909 | What would James do to the man if he caught him? |
41909 | What would happen if Rennie, the dear mother and straw- boss of us all, should slip before a car and be seriously injured to- night? |
41909 | What would happen? |
41909 | What would she do next? |
41909 | What would the watchman do if he found her? |
41909 | What y''got in that bag?" |
41909 | What''s the port?" |
41909 | What''s this?" |
41909 | When do we start?" |
41909 | When will it be? |
41909 | When would all this maze of mysteries be solved? |
41909 | Where did she live? |
41909 | Where had he slept that night? |
41909 | Where has she gone?" |
41909 | Where was she to- day? |
41909 | Where was she? |
41909 | Where''s O''Hara''s stand?" |
41909 | Which do you sell? |
41909 | Which of these fifty- cent books would you recommend?" |
41909 | Which way should she turn? |
41909 | Which?" |
41909 | Who cared about anything? |
41909 | Who cared if room rent was due to- night? |
41909 | Who cared if the school term loomed ahead with little enough cash in her stocking to smooth its way? |
41909 | Who could have taken it? |
41909 | Who could it be? |
41909 | Who could say? |
41909 | Who could tell? |
41909 | Who knows what may have been the reason? |
41909 | Who was Cordie? |
41909 | Who was Laurie Seymour? |
41909 | Who was Sam? |
41909 | Who was she anyway? |
41909 | Who was the Mystery Lady? |
41909 | Who was the mystery woman of the night shadows in the book department? |
41909 | Who was the"Spirit of Christmas"? |
41909 | Who was this man? |
41909 | Who was your friend?" |
41909 | Who will get the gold?" |
41909 | Who would get the two hundred in gold? |
41909 | Who would n''t? |
41909 | Who would not envy her? |
41909 | Who would not like one for his room? |
41909 | Who would not love to open his eyes each morning upon the girl in the''Song of the Lark''? |
41909 | Who''ll make it twelve?" |
41909 | Who''s the first?" |
41909 | Who-- who-- is some of her folks dead?" |
41909 | Whose bag was it? |
41909 | Whose train? |
41909 | Why did James go into such a fit of anger at sight of the stranger at the door? |
41909 | Why did she not return for it later? |
41909 | Why did this evil looking man with the scar above his eye want her bag so badly? |
41909 | Why do you want one of those bags so badly?" |
41909 | Why had Laurie given her his pass- out? |
41909 | Why had Laurie given up his pass- out? |
41909 | Why had he given the Mystery Lady his pass- out? |
41909 | Why had he talked so strangely about it? |
41909 | Why had she left her gorgeously beautiful cape behind for a shop girl to wear home? |
41909 | Why had she left the cape that night? |
41909 | Why had the Mystery Lady done that? |
41909 | Why not walk in there and leave the bag at the checking room? |
41909 | Why not?" |
41909 | Why not?" |
41909 | Why should I be looking after her? |
41909 | Why should he suddenly become such a violent champion of my cause? |
41909 | Why should she have left the cape?" |
41909 | Why the crimson thread? |
41909 | Why the iron ring? |
41909 | Why was Laurie so much afraid to meet him? |
41909 | Why, then, should she concern herself with the outcome of an affair which he had clearly entered into of his own free will? |
41909 | Why? |
41909 | Why? |
41909 | Why? |
41909 | Will you? |
41909 | Wo n''t that be romantic?" |
41909 | Wo n''t you please talk to this-- this policeman until I can go to the restaurant on the corner and get some?" |
41909 | Would a romance spring up between the rich girl Cordie and the gallant young policeman, Patrick O''Hara? |
41909 | Would n''t it be a joke to come upon her wearing it? |
41909 | Would n''t it, though? |
41909 | Would she have told why she asked Florence to wear her clothes for a half day and play the role of Meg? |
41909 | You believe that, do n''t you?" |
41909 | You have n''t had a bite to eat, have you?" |
41909 | You never read about my wrapping bundles, did you? |
41909 | You say he was all mussed up when he came back?" |
41909 | You? |
41909 | Your friend?" |
41909 | she exclaimed suddenly,"Do you know James?" |
55098 | Ai nt you a rich man? |
55098 | Ai nt you afraid of me? |
55098 | And Mr. Drummond,--how were you pleased with him? |
55098 | And his mother is n''t living? |
55098 | And how did you like Stapleton? |
55098 | And so you are going to that Mr. Drummond''s? 55098 And you say it is all wool?" |
55098 | Are there any directions you would like to give, Walter? |
55098 | Are they all wool? |
55098 | Are you crazy? |
55098 | Are you going right through to Cleveland? |
55098 | Are you going to give me back that pocket- book? |
55098 | Are you going to let that beggar pitch into me like that? |
55098 | Are you going to stop or not? 55098 Are you not going to eat supper with me?" |
55098 | Are you sure it will wash? |
55098 | Are you sure you did n''t say something to provoke him? |
55098 | Are you sure you looked back far enough? |
55098 | Are you tending store? |
55098 | Are you the man that was round last spring selling jewelry? |
55098 | Are you travelling alone? |
55098 | Are you well? |
55098 | As far as Ohio? |
55098 | Be you? 55098 But suppose only five hundred dollars are left? |
55098 | By the way, are you provided with sufficient money to pay your railway fare? 55098 Ca n''t they?" |
55098 | Ca n''t we beat the other boat? |
55098 | Ca n''t you guess what you are likely to get? |
55098 | Ca n''t you steer straight by accident, Joshua? |
55098 | Ca n''t you wait till we have finished this game? |
55098 | Can it be in the other? |
55098 | Can you give me the change? |
55098 | Can you prove this charge which you have made against my son? |
55098 | Can you tell me the shortest way out of the woods? |
55098 | Can you tell me,he inquired,"who lives in that large house a little way up the street?" |
55098 | Come to talk on business, I hope? |
55098 | Conrad, what means this outrageous conduct? |
55098 | Could you point him out? |
55098 | Did he have the money with him? |
55098 | Did he see you? |
55098 | Did he show any confusion? |
55098 | Did n''t anybody tell you, then? |
55098 | Did n''t you bring your luncheon? |
55098 | Did n''t you lock me up in the closet last night? |
55098 | Did n''t you say you bought the shawl of the boy? |
55098 | Did n''t you tell me you sold twenty books, at three dollars and a half? 55098 Did she know my name?" |
55098 | Did she say I sold it to her? |
55098 | Did you buy this shawl of us? |
55098 | Did you ever witness such unblushing falsehood? |
55098 | Did you get tired of waiting? |
55098 | Did you say you was a book- peddler? |
55098 | Did you see anything of my pocket- book? |
55098 | Did you take it out of my pocket? 55098 Did you tax him with taking it?" |
55098 | Did your father speak of being unwell? |
55098 | Do n''t you like him? |
55098 | Do n''t you think you had better wait a few months? |
55098 | Do you call me a thief? |
55098 | Do you call that selling like wildfire? |
55098 | Do you ever go out on it? |
55098 | Do you expect to find him? |
55098 | Do you expect to sell any books here? |
55098 | Do you know him? |
55098 | Do you know how to steer? |
55098 | Do you know that I could wring your neck? |
55098 | Do you know the name of it? |
55098 | Do you like peddlin''? |
55098 | Do you mean as an agent? |
55098 | Do you mean that? |
55098 | Do you mean to say I lie? |
55098 | Do you mean to steal my money? |
55098 | Do you really think so? |
55098 | Do you smoke? |
55098 | Do you take sugar and milk in your tea, Walter? |
55098 | Do you think I will believe any such story? |
55098 | Do you think you can get back my money? |
55098 | Do you think you, a hired boy, are equal to me, who am a gentleman? |
55098 | Do you want a pair of shoes this morning? |
55098 | Do you want to earn some money? |
55098 | Do you want to see her? |
55098 | Do you? 55098 Does Mr. Conrad wish to operate near home?" |
55098 | Does he live in a shanty, I wonder? |
55098 | Does it sell well? |
55098 | From Willoughby? |
55098 | Got relations there, I suppose? |
55098 | Has Mr. Conrad come downstairs? |
55098 | Has he ever stolen anything from you? |
55098 | Have any letters been received here for me? |
55098 | Have n''t I said I would n''t? |
55098 | Have n''t you got any prettier patterns? |
55098 | Have n''t you got some with a smaller figure? |
55098 | Have you a vacancy for me in your store? 55098 Have you any calicoes that you can recommend?" |
55098 | Have you bought no lottery tickets? |
55098 | Have you come from there? |
55098 | Have you decided to accept my offer, and make your home beneath my humble roof? |
55098 | Have you ever been there? |
55098 | Have you got any more shawls like this? |
55098 | Have you got the pocket- book? |
55098 | Have you heard from home lately, Conrad? |
55098 | Have you left Drummond''s store? |
55098 | Have you lived here long? |
55098 | Have you lost anything? |
55098 | Have you, sir? |
55098 | Have-- have you heard anything? |
55098 | He was a stranger, then? |
55098 | He was rich, was n''t he? |
55098 | Hey, Meg? |
55098 | How are you, Joshua? |
55098 | How came you here, Jack? |
55098 | How came you shut up in that closet? |
55098 | How can I? |
55098 | How can you say such things of your own son? |
55098 | How did she know my name? |
55098 | How did you like that calico? |
55098 | How did your father lose his money? |
55098 | How do you know that it is humbug? |
55098 | How do you know? |
55098 | How dy do? |
55098 | How is he taken in? |
55098 | How long ago is that? |
55098 | How long are you going to stay away? |
55098 | How long are you going to stay? |
55098 | How long before we find out about it? |
55098 | How long did he stay? |
55098 | How long has this Jack Mangum lived about here? |
55098 | How long have you had your watch, Walter? |
55098 | How many copies have you sold? |
55098 | How many did you have? |
55098 | How much are your oranges? |
55098 | How much did you charge for them? |
55098 | How much is it a yard? |
55098 | How much is it? |
55098 | How much is there in it? |
55098 | How much will you give me if I will go into your store? |
55098 | How old are you now? |
55098 | How old are you? |
55098 | How so? |
55098 | How were you able to do that? 55098 How?" |
55098 | I say, could n''t one crib a little from Cæsar? |
55098 | I suppose you have been there? |
55098 | I suppose you would n''t like to buy, would you? 55098 I wonder how much he''s got in it?" |
55098 | I wonder if it is a check? |
55098 | I wonder if she was always so unsociable? |
55098 | I wonder what sort of a woman she was when she was young? |
55098 | I wonder who''ll make the next purchase? |
55098 | I wonder,thought our hero,"whether she will change as soon as she finds out that I am poor?" |
55098 | In what direction? |
55098 | Is Mr. Pusher in? |
55098 | Is father_ very_ sick, then? |
55098 | Is he? 55098 Is it a flourishing place?" |
55098 | Is it impudent to ask what made you take my property? |
55098 | Is it possible? 55098 Is it time to get up?" |
55098 | Is it? 55098 Is it? |
55098 | Is my young relative, Mr. Conrad''s son, at home? |
55098 | Is n''t he a little older than this boy? |
55098 | Is n''t it a good picture? 55098 Is n''t that bundle heavy?" |
55098 | Is n''t that rather sudden? |
55098 | Is n''t that where your cousin William Conrad lives? |
55098 | Is n''t this the same man that sold you that ring? |
55098 | Is n''t twenty dollars a day pretty large for an agent to make? |
55098 | Is that all you can say? 55098 Is that right?" |
55098 | Is that so? |
55098 | Is that the church? |
55098 | Is that true? |
55098 | Is the lady of the house at home? |
55098 | Is there a good tailor there? |
55098 | Is there a picture of Jerusalem? |
55098 | Is there anything more, ma''am? |
55098 | Is there? |
55098 | Is this Fast Day? |
55098 | Is your business a good one? |
55098 | Is your husband with you? |
55098 | It is n''t morning, is it? |
55098 | It is n''t to be sent home, is it? 55098 It''s all very well to say''Try again,''"he said to himself,"but where can I get the money? |
55098 | It''s your cousin, is n''t it? 55098 Just come?" |
55098 | Mary,said her husband,"ca n''t you scare up some breakfast for this young man? |
55098 | May I ask, Mr. Conrad,--excuse my intruding the question,--who is left executor of your father''s estate? |
55098 | May I go then? |
55098 | May I speak to you a moment? |
55098 | Meeting with pretty good success? |
55098 | Mr. Nichols, will you do me the favor to be silent? |
55098 | Mr. Nichols,said Mr. Drummond,"did you sell this lady the shawl she is wearing, for five dollars?" |
55098 | Nancy, have you got that letter which my father was reading? |
55098 | Nancy,he said,"have any arrangements been made about the funeral?" |
55098 | Not on business? |
55098 | Oh, what''s the odds? 55098 Oh, you are, are you?" |
55098 | Oh, you wanted to speak to me, did you? |
55098 | Publishers, ai nt they? |
55098 | Shall I do so, Walter? |
55098 | Shall I have cake and pie both? |
55098 | Shall we go in there? |
55098 | Shall you go? |
55098 | Sir,said the pickpocket, blustering,"do you mean to insult me? |
55098 | So there is a warrant out for him now? |
55098 | So you consider Tom Burton better off than you are? |
55098 | So you want to be a book agent, Walter? |
55098 | Some people are born lazy, do n''t you think so? |
55098 | Something private, eh? |
55098 | Such as what? |
55098 | Suppose your father should fail? |
55098 | Tell me what? |
55098 | That''s about the same thing,thought Walter; but he only said,"Why do n''t you ask your father for the money?" |
55098 | That''s seventy dollars, is n''t it? |
55098 | Then he''s escaped with all his money? |
55098 | Then where would you get the money to repay me in case I lent it to you? |
55098 | Then why is it that you have put both pie and cake on the table? |
55098 | Then you ca n''t lend me the money? 55098 Then you wo n''t let my friend have another like it for five dollars?" |
55098 | There''s a fellow I know in New York that drew a prize of a thousand dollars, and how much do you think he paid for a ticket? |
55098 | Tiresome work travelling, is n''t it? |
55098 | Walter Conrad,he exclaimed furiously,"how dare you defy me in this outrageous manner? |
55098 | Walter, have you a couple of dollars about you to lend me for a day or two? |
55098 | Was n''t it, though? 55098 Was that all?" |
55098 | Was there much money in it? |
55098 | Well, Joshua? |
55098 | Well, Mary, how about the breakfast? |
55098 | Well, Meg,he said, looking up,"where did you put him?" |
55098 | Well, what are you goin''to do about it? |
55098 | Well, what are you going to do? |
55098 | Well, what do you say? |
55098 | Well, what have you got to sell? |
55098 | Well, young man, this is a poor place, is n''t it? |
55098 | Well, young man,said he, in rather a sharp voice,"what can I do for you?" |
55098 | Well, young man,she asked, after a sharp glance,"what is your business?" |
55098 | Well,he said, and there was a slight nervousness in his tone,"what''s the matter? |
55098 | Well,said the old gentleman who sat behind him,"I suppose you did not find your man?" |
55098 | Were you? |
55098 | What are you doing, Conrad? |
55098 | What are you going to do? |
55098 | What are you snickering at, Joshua? |
55098 | What beggar? 55098 What can I show you, ma''am?" |
55098 | What could I want of the money? |
55098 | What could happen to me? |
55098 | What danger is there? |
55098 | What did the doctor say? |
55098 | What do I say? 55098 What do all these dreadful words mean?" |
55098 | What do you mean by calling me a beggar? |
55098 | What do you mean to do? |
55098 | What do you say to going back for a year? 55098 What do you want?" |
55098 | What does this mean, Joshua? |
55098 | What else can I do? |
55098 | What else? |
55098 | What for, then? |
55098 | What for? 55098 What for?" |
55098 | What has he done? |
55098 | What has that to do with us? |
55098 | What have I done to you? |
55098 | What have you got to sell? |
55098 | What is that I see through the trees? 55098 What is that to me? |
55098 | What is the matter? |
55098 | What is the plan you are thinking of, Joshua? |
55098 | What is the price of this one? |
55098 | What is the price? |
55098 | What is? |
55098 | What kind of a book have you got? |
55098 | What made you keep the money? |
55098 | What made you take it out of your pocket- book? |
55098 | What made you think so? |
55098 | What makes you think I have got any more money? |
55098 | What makes you think so? |
55098 | What makes you think so? |
55098 | What might it be now? 55098 What name?" |
55098 | What relations are there to be invited? |
55098 | What shall I do? |
55098 | What shall I do? |
55098 | What should you care about him? 55098 What sort of business is it?" |
55098 | What terms do you offer to agents? |
55098 | What would you advise me to do? |
55098 | What''s all this? |
55098 | What''s he been doing? 55098 What''s he been doing? |
55098 | What''s he done with''em, the young rascal? |
55098 | What''s that? |
55098 | What''s that? |
55098 | What''s the matter, Joshua? |
55098 | What''s the matter, Joshua? |
55098 | What''s the matter, Joshua? |
55098 | What''s the matter? |
55098 | What''s the matter? |
55098 | What''s the name of it? |
55098 | What''s the name of it? |
55098 | What''s the name of the book? |
55098 | What''s the title of the book? |
55098 | What''s the use of being sarcastic on a fellow, and hurting his feelings? |
55098 | What''s the young man''s name? |
55098 | What''s to hinder my killin''you? 55098 What''s to prevent you taking all my money, if you get me over there?" |
55098 | What''s up this morning? |
55098 | What''s wanted, mother? |
55098 | What''s wanted? |
55098 | What''s your business? |
55098 | What, Meg, are you here? |
55098 | What, was n''t your father rich? |
55098 | What? |
55098 | What? |
55098 | When did you discover its loss? |
55098 | When shall we see you back again, Walter? |
55098 | When shall you set out? |
55098 | When was he first taken sick? |
55098 | When? |
55098 | Where and when? |
55098 | Where are his books? |
55098 | Where are you going next? |
55098 | Where are you going with that big bundle? |
55098 | Where are you going, Joshua? |
55098 | Where are you going, Joshua? |
55098 | Where are you going? |
55098 | Where are you going? |
55098 | Where are you going? |
55098 | Where are you steering, Joshua? |
55098 | Where are you, Jack? |
55098 | Where are your books,--in that carpet- bag? |
55098 | Where did you learn manners? |
55098 | Where did you put it? |
55098 | Where did you sell them? |
55098 | Where did you stop? |
55098 | Where do you have your clothes made? |
55098 | Where do you live? |
55098 | Where have you been, Joshua? |
55098 | Where is the jail? |
55098 | Where is the road? |
55098 | Where shall I hide it? |
55098 | Where was your pocket- book when you last saw it? |
55098 | Where would you want me to sell? |
55098 | Where''s the boy? |
55098 | Where''ve you put that money you had last night? |
55098 | Where, sir? |
55098 | Where? |
55098 | Who are you? |
55098 | Who dares to call me a thief? |
55098 | Who have you got here, Meg? |
55098 | Who knows but you''ll marry and have a lot of children? |
55098 | Who said I did? |
55098 | Who was that young man who was sitting with you a few minutes since? |
55098 | Who''s down, I wonder? |
55098 | Why ca n''t you have beefsteak once in a while, instead of corned beef? 55098 Why did n''t you pick out something, and tell her it was all the rage?" |
55098 | Why did n''t you show them? |
55098 | Why did n''t you stop him? |
55098 | Why did n''t you tell me this before, young man? |
55098 | Why did n''t you tell me when I was at Willoughby? |
55098 | Why do n''t you answer, you rascal? |
55098 | Why do n''t you do it? |
55098 | Why do you want to harm me? |
55098 | Why do you want to know? |
55098 | Why need he know? 55098 Why not? |
55098 | Why not? |
55098 | Why not? |
55098 | Why not? |
55098 | Why not? |
55098 | Why should I be? 55098 Why should n''t you lend me? |
55098 | Why to- morrow in particular? 55098 Why, have you lost it?" |
55098 | Why, why need he be so violent? 55098 Will he come here, then?" |
55098 | Will you give up that pocket- book? |
55098 | Will you have some more tea? |
55098 | Will you have the pie? |
55098 | Will you look on the books, and see if you find the sale recorded? 55098 Will you mention my name to him, and say that I should like to see him?" |
55098 | Will you promise not to quarrel with him again? |
55098 | Will you put back that plank? |
55098 | Wo n''t you come in? |
55098 | Wo n''t you try it, then,said Joe,"and show us what you can do?" |
55098 | Would a letter reach him in time? |
55098 | Would he engage the old woman too? |
55098 | Would n''t it be splendid if I could draw a prize of a thousand dollars? |
55098 | Would n''t you? 55098 You can make money pretty fast?" |
55098 | You did n''t authorize me to speak for you? |
55098 | You did n''t get your money? |
55098 | You did n''t sell a book there, did you? |
55098 | You do n''t mean to say that''s all he gives you? |
55098 | You met with fair success, then? |
55098 | You miss the milk and sugar? |
55098 | You say the man is in the smoking- car? |
55098 | You told me that you bought your shawl of a boy? |
55098 | You were an only child, were n''t you? |
55098 | You will come, Walter, wo n''t you? |
55098 | You wo n''t forget to send me the paper? |
55098 | You wo n''t harm the lad, Jack? |
55098 | You would not murder him? |
55098 | You''re pretty young to be a book- peddler Where do your folks live? |
55098 | Your father''s? |
55098 | Your pocket- book? |
55098 | Your son? |
55098 | A dollar a week?" |
55098 | Are you in business?" |
55098 | Are you sure that none of the property will be left?" |
55098 | Burton?" |
55098 | But then he had died rich, and who knows what sort of a will he had left? |
55098 | But what was the result? |
55098 | Ca n''t you induce the old man to fork over the stamps, and come up here, if only for a week?" |
55098 | Ca n''t you lend it to me for a week? |
55098 | Can I stop here over night if the storm should hold on?" |
55098 | Can he stand it?" |
55098 | Can you lend me five dollars?" |
55098 | Can you tell me how far it is to the next town?" |
55098 | Conrad?" |
55098 | Conrad?" |
55098 | Conrad?" |
55098 | Conrad?" |
55098 | Could he do it? |
55098 | Could there be danger? |
55098 | Did Walter sigh for their return? |
55098 | Did you ever buy a lottery ticket?" |
55098 | Did you have any customers?" |
55098 | Did you wish particularly to see him?" |
55098 | Do n''t they now?" |
55098 | Do n''t you see the name on the sign?" |
55098 | Do you expect a present?" |
55098 | Do you generally get letters Thursday?" |
55098 | Do you have confidence in him?" |
55098 | Do you hear me?" |
55098 | Do you think I would live here in the woods if I had money? |
55098 | Do your folks live there?" |
55098 | Does n''t he know how to steer?" |
55098 | Does not that look like guilt?" |
55098 | Drummond?" |
55098 | Drummond?" |
55098 | Drummond?" |
55098 | Drummond?" |
55098 | Drummond?" |
55098 | Drummond?" |
55098 | Five hundred would n''t be so bad, eh?" |
55098 | Flint?" |
55098 | Have you done much in the business?" |
55098 | Have you formed any plans for the future?" |
55098 | Have you got any money?" |
55098 | Have you got anything good to eat?" |
55098 | Have you searched on the floor?" |
55098 | Have you seen the boy?" |
55098 | Have you sold such a shawl within four weeks?" |
55098 | Having decided to purchase a lottery ticket, the important question suggested itself,"Where was he to obtain the necessary five dollars?" |
55098 | He is an old man, is n''t he? |
55098 | He paused at Walter''s seat, and inquired,"Is this seat taken?" |
55098 | How can I be anything else in this miserable little village? |
55098 | How did he insult you?" |
55098 | How did he pay you for your services?" |
55098 | How do you account for that?" |
55098 | How do you make it pay?" |
55098 | How far are you going?" |
55098 | How many times do you think I have been over this road?" |
55098 | How much do you charge for the book?" |
55098 | How much do you expect to get for this book?" |
55098 | How much have we got for a lesson?" |
55098 | How old are you?" |
55098 | How venerable will you be?" |
55098 | How''s that for high?" |
55098 | I wonder if I have passed him? |
55098 | I wonder if the man who was after me has gone home?" |
55098 | If he did, was there any help for Walter? |
55098 | If you killed him, you might be hung, and then what would become of me?" |
55098 | Is a thousand dollars the highest prize?" |
55098 | Is it a river?" |
55098 | Is it in your other pocket?" |
55098 | Is n''t supper most ready?" |
55098 | Is n''t that mean?" |
55098 | It closed thus:--"By the way, Josh, when are you coming up to the city, to take a look at the lions? |
55098 | Joshua stared in amazement, and Mrs. Drummond exclaimed,"What makes you talk so, Mr. Drummond? |
55098 | Nichols?" |
55098 | Nichols?" |
55098 | Nichols?" |
55098 | Nichols?" |
55098 | Nichols?" |
55098 | Nichols?" |
55098 | Nichols?" |
55098 | Now how much do you think he allows me a week for spending money?" |
55098 | Now, what is the name of this publisher you were speaking of?" |
55098 | Porter?" |
55098 | Pretty good, is n''t it?" |
55098 | Shall I agree?" |
55098 | Shaw?" |
55098 | So she offered you two dollars?" |
55098 | The thing is, will you restore this boy''s pocket- book?" |
55098 | There is n''t such an awful hurry, is there?" |
55098 | This time a not particularly musical voice was heard from within:--"Is that you, Jack?" |
55098 | To come to the point, did you, or did you not, a fortnight since, sell one of those shawls, such as you see on the counter, for five dollars?" |
55098 | Walter counted upon his passing on; but on reaching the old tree Jack paused, and said aloud,"Where can the young rascal be? |
55098 | Was it possible that he meant to raise the siege? |
55098 | Was n''t he here when you came up?" |
55098 | Was n''t my ticket all right?" |
55098 | Was there any one else to help him? |
55098 | Was there any pretext on which he could ask his father for five dollars? |
55098 | Was your ticket in it also?" |
55098 | Was your ticket in the pocket- book?" |
55098 | Well, Conrad,"continued Mr. Pusher, in an off- hand manner,"what are your wishes? |
55098 | What are you going to have for supper?" |
55098 | What book do you want to take hold of?" |
55098 | What brings him into these woods?" |
55098 | What could he, a boy of fifteen, do against their combined attack? |
55098 | What do you propose to do?" |
55098 | What do you say to twenty- five cents?" |
55098 | What do you say?" |
55098 | What do you think he allows me for spending money?" |
55098 | What had you seen in me to justify you in such a sudden charge of dishonesty?" |
55098 | What has he done?" |
55098 | What have I to do with his pocket- book?" |
55098 | What is he but a beggar?" |
55098 | What is he to you?" |
55098 | What lottery was it?" |
55098 | What made you take it?" |
55098 | What made you turn the boat?" |
55098 | What progress have you made in settling the estate?" |
55098 | What should he do? |
55098 | What would you do now if you were a poor boy?" |
55098 | What would you have more?" |
55098 | What''s to be done?" |
55098 | When are you going back to the city?" |
55098 | When did he die?" |
55098 | When did you leave Stapleton?" |
55098 | Who is Nancy Forbes?" |
55098 | Why are some people so lucky, while I live in this miserable hole?" |
55098 | Why do n''t you ask for more?" |
55098 | Why should I be?" |
55098 | Why was it not there now? |
55098 | Why wo n''t you wait till to- morrow yourself?" |
55098 | Why, he argued, should Mr. Drummond so readily decide that he had cheated him out of five dollars? |
55098 | Will you allow me to show it to you?" |
55098 | Will you wrap it up for me?" |
55098 | Wo n''t he be mad when he finds out how he''s been taken in? |
55098 | Wo n''t you come with me?" |
55098 | Wo n''t you walk in?" |
55098 | Wo n''t you walk into the parlor?" |
55098 | You could n''t get me a chance in your business, could you?" |
55098 | You have probably heard your father speak of me?" |
55098 | You were at the Essex Classical Institute, I believe?" |
55098 | You were at the Essex Classical Institute, I think?" |
55098 | You would n''t care much for his twenty- five cents a week then?" |
55098 | You''re not going to tell him, are you?" |
55098 | Young man, how much do you ask for your book?" |
55098 | _ But I may get hold of the money some other way._ Would five thousand dollars be enough to set a fellow up in business in New York? |
55098 | was there much money in it?" |
55098 | what''s up?" |
55098 | wo n''t the old man look like a thundercloud?" |
16129 | ''And what,''I heard Mr. Robinson observe, as I turned away,''is twelve miles in this here watery wilderness of leagues?'' 16129 A hundred thousand pounds? |
16129 | Afraid? 16129 After all,"he said,"how are they to find out? |
16129 | All your own-- eh? 16129 Always doing that-- eh? |
16129 | And am I to begin at once by asking for the money to be-- what do you call it, transferred? |
16129 | And because you thought you knew me from those letters, you suffer me to come here and be your disciple still? 16129 And his name was not Aglen, at all?" |
16129 | And if I do not find the money within three weeks? |
16129 | And if she refuses then? |
16129 | And now they have really come? 16129 And suppose they ask me questions?" |
16129 | And suppose, again,Arnold went on,"that the inheritance turns out a delusion, and that there is nothing at all?" |
16129 | And the coat- of- arms? |
16129 | And the name of your son- in- law''s old friend? |
16129 | And what do you think, sir? |
16129 | And what is this? |
16129 | And what sort of a man is this American? 16129 And why ca n''t he go on writing his letters without making any fuss?" |
16129 | And why do you come to see me to- day, Mr. Farrar-- and with Arnold? |
16129 | And you intend to ask her-- in the shop, I dare say, among the second- hand books-- to become your wife? |
16129 | And you want me to become that man? |
16129 | As for Iris being empty- handed,said Arnold,"how can that ever be? |
16129 | As for the ways and talk of society, what are these worth? 16129 But after all, what''s the good of this place to a sailor?" |
16129 | But as it is only a woman-- which of''em is it? |
16129 | But my position, my profession, my people-- are you not curious to know them? |
16129 | But never alone, Iris? |
16129 | But on whom have we conferred any benefits? |
16129 | But who would steal it, Arnold? 16129 But you are not going to start away for Liverpool at once? |
16129 | But you will think every day of little Iris? |
16129 | But, Iris, have you no friends at all, and no relations? 16129 But, you dear old man, what have you got in your head to- night? |
16129 | Ca n''t you get another client to find the money? |
16129 | Can gold,the moralist asked,"ever increase the virtue of man? |
16129 | Can he be going to give her all his money before he dies? 16129 Can we? |
16129 | Can we? |
16129 | Clara''s cousin,she said,"I have forgotten your name; but how do you do, again?" |
16129 | Did this American give you any other proof of what he asserts? |
16129 | Did you tell him? |
16129 | Did you? 16129 Disposed of? |
16129 | Do I? 16129 Do n''t they go to music- halls, please, and dancing cribs, and such?" |
16129 | Do n''t you know it, then? 16129 Do you know anything?" |
16129 | Do you know him, then? |
16129 | Do you know if any one has brought this girl to England? |
16129 | Do you know that he reproached himself? |
16129 | Do you think that I dreamed it all? 16129 Do you think you know him well enough, my dear?" |
16129 | Do you think-- you who know her so well-- that she suspects or knows it? |
16129 | Do you, Mr. Arbuthnot, always spend your evenings like this? |
16129 | Foxy,he said cheerfully,"have you found anything yet about the investments? |
16129 | Friend,said Lala,"was it well to hide this from me?" |
16129 | Furniture wears out; as for the stock-- who knows what that is worth? 16129 Has any one been?" |
16129 | Has he made a new will lately? |
16129 | Have you consented, Iris, my dear? |
16129 | Have you given any more money to the American gentleman who brought her home? |
16129 | Have you got enough money, Joe? |
16129 | Have you many pupils, like myself? |
16129 | He wants nothing for himself, then? 16129 How can I pay him back? |
16129 | How can I show curiosity about you, Arnold? 16129 How can a girl make money by teaching? |
16129 | How can that be, if it was not left to you? |
16129 | How do you know that? |
16129 | How do you know, Arnold? |
16129 | How like this? |
16129 | How long has she been married? |
16129 | How much do you know, Joe, and what is your business proposal worth? |
16129 | How much do you think we shall get out of it, Joe? |
16129 | How much? 16129 How shall you live, Arnold?" |
16129 | How''s business? |
16129 | How, indeed? |
16129 | I believe you are a friend of Mr. Emblem''s grandson? |
16129 | I ca n''t help it, can I? |
16129 | I can not complain, after twenty years, can I? 16129 I suppose,"said Arnold, shirking the question, because this is a civilized country, and in fact, why not? |
16129 | I was only thinking,he said,"that perhaps, you might be so much happier--""Happier? |
16129 | I wonder if she is pretty? |
16129 | I''ve got the real instincts of a lady, have n''t I? 16129 If anything dreadful should come of this? |
16129 | Ill, is he? 16129 Iris, will you change it for a life which will not be so quiet?" |
16129 | Iris? |
16129 | Is he your husband? 16129 Is it hereditary gout, Clara?" |
16129 | Is it likely? 16129 Is it trouble you mean for him?" |
16129 | Is it trouble? |
16129 | Is it? |
16129 | Is that gospel truth, Joe? 16129 Is that the way you got the papers?" |
16129 | Is there anything else you have to help us? |
16129 | Is this, Iris? |
16129 | It goes well,he asked,"with the buying and the selling?" |
16129 | It is hard, is it not, to lose a friend so slowly acquired, thus suddenly and unexpectedly? |
16129 | It''s a good step, is n''t it? 16129 James, do you think I would steal? |
16129 | Joe, what does he mean? 16129 Joe,"she said,"is it true that you know another girl who would do this for you?" |
16129 | Joe? 16129 Ladies in America, I suppose,"said Clara,"dine in the middle of the day?" |
16129 | Look here, Chalker,Joe laid a persuasive hand on the other''s arm,"ca n''t we two be friendly? |
16129 | May I go on? 16129 Mercy? |
16129 | Most American ladies,he said impertinently,"only drink water, do they not?" |
16129 | My dear,said Claude,"if it were not for you, what happiness could I have in the world? |
16129 | My help for him? 16129 My tutor? |
16129 | No abatement? 16129 Not any science at all? |
16129 | Nothing; is there now? |
16129 | Now, Joe,said the singer, with a freezing glance at the barmaid,"are you going to stand here all night?" |
16129 | Now,he murmured,"if the old man has really been such a dunder- headed pump as not to open the packet all these years, what the devil can he know? |
16129 | Oh, Mr. Joseph,he asked earnestly,"what will become of the shop? |
16129 | Oh, can such wickedness be? |
16129 | Oh,said Iris again,"how could you love me, Arnold-- how could you love any girl so? |
16129 | One of your models? |
16129 | Or you''d ha''known pretty sharp all there is to know-- eh, my lad? 16129 Papers, miss-- papers? |
16129 | Perhaps, Mr. Joseph,said Mr. James,"perhaps Miss Iris wo n''t have all bequeathed to her?" |
16129 | Physical science, perhaps? |
16129 | Pray, Arnold, what is meant by all this mystery? |
16129 | Pray, sir,said Lala Roy,"who told you that Mr. Emblem was so wealthy?" |
16129 | She is well educated, then? |
16129 | So, is that modest enough, Joe? 16129 Soon, Mr. Joseph? |
16129 | Splendid, is n''t she? |
16129 | Still, will you permit me to introduce Miss Aglen to you, if she should do me the honor of accepting me? 16129 Tell me, my friend, what ails the child? |
16129 | That fetches''em, do n''t it, sir? 16129 That''s her husband, is it? |
16129 | The gentle blood always shows itself, does n''t it? |
16129 | The good-- the good of this place? |
16129 | Then perhaps you prefer metaphysics? 16129 Then what am I to do?" |
16129 | Then why does he go on talking about thousands? |
16129 | Then why not go to a lawyer and make him take up the case for you, and honestly get your own? |
16129 | Then, have I been going under a false name all my life? |
16129 | Then, sir,said Arnold,"what was his real name?" |
16129 | Then,he continued,"if we can not write to each other any more, can we not talk?" |
16129 | To call upon me here? |
16129 | To- morrow? |
16129 | Was I sarcastic? |
16129 | We are getting on famously, are we not? 16129 Well, Joe,"said his wife,"and how is it going to finish? |
16129 | Well, Joe? |
16129 | Well, one afternoon Mr. Robinson comes aboard alone, and says to me,''Williams, at what hour will the tide serve to- morrow night?'' 16129 Well-- then-- what the devil do you mean-- you and your forgery?" |
16129 | What are you driving at? |
16129 | What are you going to do for me? |
16129 | What are you going to do with Joe? |
16129 | What are you thinking about, Arnold? |
16129 | What did he tell you? 16129 What did you tell him for, Iris, my dear? |
16129 | What do you mean by that? |
16129 | What do you mean, I say? 16129 What do you say, Lala Roy?" |
16129 | What do you think of this for a yarn? 16129 What do you want me to do? |
16129 | What does it matter, Joe, how much it is, if it is neither yours nor mine? |
16129 | What does that matter? |
16129 | What else did you learn? |
16129 | What is going to happen to me, grandfather, except that I shall be twenty- one? |
16129 | What is he like-- the young American physician? |
16129 | What is her name, Arnold? |
16129 | What is it, James? 16129 What is the name and address of this Shadwell woman?" |
16129 | What is to prevent a clever, quick- eyed fellow like you, mate, stepping in with a bit of wax-- eh? 16129 What might Mr. Joseph want?" |
16129 | What the deuce is this, I wonder? |
16129 | What the devil is the matter with him? |
16129 | What? 16129 When did the real girl die?" |
16129 | When did you ever tell me the truth, my dear? 16129 Where are the keys?" |
16129 | Where do you walk? |
16129 | Where does he live? |
16129 | Where is Mr. Arbuthnot this evening, my dear? |
16129 | Where is he? |
16129 | Where is the letter? |
16129 | Where was the grandfather? |
16129 | Where was the real girl? |
16129 | Where''s the admiral, Foxy? |
16129 | Which will you have first? |
16129 | Who brought her up? |
16129 | Who is Dr. Joseph Washington? |
16129 | Who is coming to- night, my dear? |
16129 | Who is coming to- night, my dear? |
16129 | Who is so wise as my Iris? |
16129 | Who is to prove that you are the girl''s guardian? |
16129 | Who is to prove that? |
16129 | Who is your Cousin Arnold? |
16129 | Who is your new singer? |
16129 | Who was that? 16129 Whose face is this?" |
16129 | Why did you go to see him? |
16129 | Why do you want me to encourage you? |
16129 | Why does n''t he come down and face his creditors? |
16129 | Why not? |
16129 | Why not? |
16129 | Why should I wait? 16129 Why should I? |
16129 | Why to- morrow? 16129 Why, Chalker, who''d have thought to meet you in this music- hall?" |
16129 | Why, my dear, what on earth do you know of the county ladies? |
16129 | Why, what do you call me, now? |
16129 | Why, you are not tired of it already? 16129 Why, you do n''t mean to tell me, Lotty, that you wish you had stuck to the moldy old place, and gone on selling music over the counter?" |
16129 | Why? 16129 Will the young man get copped?" |
16129 | Will you give me ten pounds for it, then? |
16129 | Will you have them back again? |
16129 | Without love, Arnold? 16129 Would it? |
16129 | Would you like,he said, another evening,"to see my studio, or do you consider my studio outside myself?" |
16129 | Yes, but what is two hundred out of a hundred and twenty thousand? 16129 Yes; and I''m to be quiet, and behave pretty, I suppose?" |
16129 | Yes; but how did I know whether he was going to do justice? 16129 Yes; will you go on?" |
16129 | Yet you have had experience, Lala Roy? |
16129 | You are in love with her, however? |
16129 | You are not really going away, Joe, are you? |
16129 | You have learned, I suppose,said Arnold,"something about the Deseret family by this time?" |
16129 | You here, Joe?? |
16129 | You here, Joe?? |
16129 | You here, Nig? 16129 You knew my son- in- law before his marriage?" |
16129 | You know him intimately? |
16129 | You really will let me come here? |
16129 | You think, then, that the Precepts of your Sage are only intended for men while they sit in the church? 16129 You will suffer him, then, even to be taken to the workhouse?" |
16129 | You wrote exactly in the form of words you promised me? |
16129 | You''re not afraid, Lotty? |
16129 | You, Arnold? 16129 You, Lala?" |
16129 | You, too, Mr. Arbuthnot? 16129 You?" |
16129 | Your stock sold? 16129 A handsome man, is he not? 16129 Afraid? 16129 Ah, and you''ve never got a chance of looking over his shoulder, I suppose? |
16129 | Ai n''t we every one engaged in getting round our neighbors? |
16129 | Always adding''em up? |
16129 | And I have been answering him, and he must think that I was drawing him on to tell me more about himself; and now-- oh, what will he think? |
16129 | And how-- oh, how in the world can she be, all at the same time, so young, so pretty, so learned, so quick, so sympathetic, and so wise?" |
16129 | And knowing so much, do you not desire to know more?" |
16129 | And now he has dropped upon us from the clouds?" |
16129 | And now yours, Mr. Farrar? |
16129 | And now, grandfather, that we have relieved our feelings, shall we have the story and the opening of the papers in the safe?" |
16129 | And now, sir"--she addressed Joe--"now that you have brought this dear girl all the way across the Atlantic, what are you going to do?" |
16129 | And now-- you do not mean to say that you are going to sell-- that you actually want to sell-- this precious book?" |
16129 | And oh, sir, who would have thought that Emblem''s would have come to ruin?" |
16129 | And then you shall tell me all about it when Arnold goes; and you will take a holiday, wo n''t you-- because I am twenty- one to- day?" |
16129 | And then-- how if your pupil begins to talk round the subject and to wander into other things? |
16129 | And what are her manners save those of the most perfect refinement and purity?" |
16129 | And what are you doing, Joe? |
16129 | And what is she, after all? |
16129 | And what line of action would be better or safer for himself? |
16129 | And who is to have it?" |
16129 | And who would help him, and give him access to the safe? |
16129 | And you do not want my congratulations, I suppose?" |
16129 | And you will be content to stay with me, my dear, wo n''t you? |
16129 | And you''ve got two hundred of it already, have n''t you?" |
16129 | And you, Clara? |
16129 | And, if you will, why should we not continue our correspondence as before?" |
16129 | And-- I say, Foxy, about that safe?" |
16129 | Anxiety and trouble? |
16129 | Anything else?" |
16129 | Are dove''s eyes, he asked himself, always steadfast? |
16129 | Are there no girls of your own age who come to see you?" |
16129 | Are you sure he is her husband?" |
16129 | Are you sure?" |
16129 | As for the papers, you have them all in your possession?" |
16129 | As for this trumpery bill of sale-- this trifle of three fifty, what is it to you? |
16129 | At seventy- five, and with all his money, why should he go on slaving any longer? |
16129 | Before his marriage? |
16129 | But is it business like, Mr. Emblem, to waste good money which you might have invested for your granddaughter?" |
16129 | But perhaps-- most likely, in fact-- you think that American girls all squint, perhaps, or have got humpbacks? |
16129 | But then, even if Joe were bad enough to rob the safe, how could he get at it? |
16129 | But what does it concern us to know what some men do?" |
16129 | But what if they should turn out to be rough and disagreeable people?" |
16129 | But when he said,"May I, your pupil, call sometimes upon you, my tutor?" |
16129 | But where is the letter? |
16129 | But who has paid the money?" |
16129 | But who shall console my grandfather in his old age for his bankruptcy?" |
16129 | But why not? |
16129 | But why was not the child brought over before?" |
16129 | Ca n''t you be satisfied with an officer and a gentleman?" |
16129 | Ca n''t you encourage yourself, Arnold?" |
16129 | Call that a way of doing business? |
16129 | Call that carrying on business? |
16129 | Can not yours wait also until to- morrow?" |
16129 | Can you not take me as I am, without thinking why I am different from other girls? |
16129 | Can you tell me any more about her?" |
16129 | Come now, what have you got to say to this? |
16129 | Could any sane and intelligent creature doubt those curves of cheek and chin? |
16129 | Could any woman,"she thought,"be worth the wealth of passion and devotion which her lover poured out for her?" |
16129 | Could we, for instance, endure to see the shop of a second- hand bookseller established in Cheapside? |
16129 | Dear me-- tut, tut!--bought no books? |
16129 | Did he ever have anything but a scowl for me?" |
16129 | Did he mean what he said? |
16129 | Did he tell you his real name?" |
16129 | Did you ever hear of a bookseller in his right mind throwing away his chances?" |
16129 | Did you really think that a man like me was going to sit in a back shop among these moldy volumes all day? |
16129 | Do most young Englishmen carry on in the same proper way?" |
16129 | Do n''t you think we had better back out of it while there is time?" |
16129 | Do we, therefore, jolly mariners afloat ever think of that? |
16129 | Do you dare to suspect that I would take money?" |
16129 | Do you hear? |
16129 | Do you know the key of the safe?" |
16129 | Do you know where I could find him, sir?" |
16129 | Do you know, sir, that you are addressing an officer and a gentleman?" |
16129 | Do you mean to insinuate that I am a thief, sir? |
16129 | Do you not recognize Mr. Frank Farrar, who used to stay at the Hall in the old days? |
16129 | Do you not sometimes think of that?" |
16129 | Do you really think me conceited?" |
16129 | Do you remember the letter?" |
16129 | Do you study mathematics?" |
16129 | Do you suppose no one can play the piano, except in England? |
16129 | Do you suppose that no woman has ever fallen in love with me before you? |
16129 | Do you think anybody in the world will be so green as to believe such a clumsy plan as that?" |
16129 | Do you think now, seriously, do you think, James that the old man is quite right-- eh? |
16129 | Do you think, now, that he is quite right in his chump?" |
16129 | Do you understand the position, Iris?" |
16129 | Does it belong to you? |
16129 | Does she not look, move, and speak like the most gracious lady in the land?" |
16129 | Emblem?" |
16129 | Farrar?" |
16129 | For who would be suspected if not-- oh, Lord!--if not me?" |
16129 | Has he borrowed your money?" |
16129 | Has she not been tenderly brought up by two old men who are full of honor, and truth, and all the simple virtues? |
16129 | Have I not lost all, except Iris? |
16129 | Have n''t people been sent to prison for less, Joe?" |
16129 | Have you ever studied, one asks with wonder, the Precepts of the great Sage who founded your religion?" |
16129 | Have you lost your voice, Iris?" |
16129 | Have you said anything to her yet about money matters, and a settlement of her claims?" |
16129 | Have you taken as yet any steps at all for the transference of your property to-- to the rightful heir?" |
16129 | He had the key made-- for himself; he certainly let me use it once, but only once, and who''s to prove it? |
16129 | Her husband, is he?" |
16129 | How am I to find out whether anything I tell you would be of use to you or not? |
16129 | How are they to prove anything? |
16129 | How beautiful you''ll look in the workhouse uniform, wo n''t you? |
16129 | How can any one live without some science?" |
16129 | How can money be made anyhow but in an honest shop? |
16129 | How can money be made by painting? |
16129 | How could it, when once we have met, and you have learned the truth?" |
16129 | How could there be any doubt?" |
16129 | How could they think of anything else? |
16129 | How did it get there?" |
16129 | How do I know that if you get what you want, you wo n''t swear it is of no use to you?" |
16129 | How do other people make money and get on? |
16129 | How have you shown your gratitude? |
16129 | How is the old man?" |
16129 | How many different worlds are there all round one in London? |
16129 | How many?" |
16129 | How much?" |
16129 | How the deuce can he be all right then? |
16129 | How the devil did you find out my address?" |
16129 | How then to ascertain whether anybody was expecting or looking for a girl to claim an inheritance? |
16129 | How was it that refinement, grave, self- possession, manners, and the culture of a lady, could be found in one who knew no ladies? |
16129 | How''s the old man?" |
16129 | I have promised that already, have I not?" |
16129 | I say, have you come to tell me that you did sneak those papers, after all? |
16129 | I told you about dear Stella, did I not? |
16129 | I wonder how many times I have read it in the last eighteen years, and how often I have wondered what the child''s fortune would be? |
16129 | IS THIS HIS PHOTOGRAPH? |
16129 | If he will not forgive me then, what more can I say? |
16129 | If you do n''t, what do you do?" |
16129 | If you know what he''s going to do with his money, why not tell a fellow? |
16129 | Iris had a good many pupils-- six, in fact, as she had boasted; why, then, was she so strangely disturbed on account of one? |
16129 | Is he a gentleman?" |
16129 | Is he going to make her inherit it at once?" |
16129 | Is it right to throw away so much upon a man who is worth so little?" |
16129 | Is it trouble? |
16129 | Is n''t the whole game, all the world over, lying and deceit? |
16129 | Is not that rather a vulgar expression?" |
16129 | Is she a common model?" |
16129 | Is she dead? |
16129 | Is she sick?" |
16129 | Is there anything else you want to say?" |
16129 | Is there nothing more?" |
16129 | Is this any use to you? |
16129 | It was a good dream that came to me this morning, was it not? |
16129 | Living on the old man again?" |
16129 | May I, being a young man, call upon you, a young woman?" |
16129 | Meanwhile, have you done what you promised?" |
16129 | Might? |
16129 | Mr. Farrar, who is this young lady? |
16129 | Must I take back these letters of mine?" |
16129 | Must it be?" |
16129 | My dear boy, tell me, are you mad? |
16129 | My dear boy, would you throw that all away?" |
16129 | Nevertheless,"his eyes did look anxious in spite of his philosophy,"this trouble of the child-- will it soon be over?" |
16129 | No mercy shown to an old man on the edge of the grave? |
16129 | Now about that key?" |
16129 | Now look here"--his voice became persuasive--"why not take me into your confidence? |
16129 | Now, Mr. Emblem, did n''t, you? |
16129 | Now, would a common girl, a girl of no descent, have shown so much delicacy and generosity?" |
16129 | Now-- don''t you know-- I do n''t intend to invite any but my own friends to visit me in my own house?" |
16129 | Odd, is n''t it? |
16129 | Oh, Iris, may I go on and tell you all?" |
16129 | Oh, how shall I tell him?" |
16129 | On account of our talk yesterday?" |
16129 | Or else--""How can I find out? |
16129 | Out of the safe?" |
16129 | Perhaps it was-- Where is the letter?" |
16129 | Perhaps there was no robbery after all-- who was to prove what had been inside the packet? |
16129 | Pray, have you proposed to this-- this young lady of the second- hand bookshop?" |
16129 | Really, yours? |
16129 | Ridiculous, was n''t it? |
16129 | Say, James, what does the commodore do all day?" |
16129 | Send it me in a letter, and then who is to know where the letter came from?" |
16129 | Settle and have done with it, even if it does take a little slice off your granddaughter''s fortune? |
16129 | Shall we build a castle in the air to suit our inheritance?" |
16129 | Shall we ever forget this night of sweet and tender talk?" |
16129 | Shall we go upstairs and have some breakfast?" |
16129 | Shall we show that you have done the same thing with many others? |
16129 | She was handsome, certainly, but how could Claude Deseret''s daughter have grown into so common a type of beauty? |
16129 | So long as his wife worked hard and brought in the coin for him to spend, what mattered for a few words now and then? |
16129 | So you gave him a check for two hundred pounds?" |
16129 | Sounds well, do n''t it? |
16129 | Splendid figure, and goes well in tights?" |
16129 | Suppose I know of something a precious sight better than his investments, and suppose-- just suppose-- that I wanted a lawyer to manage it for me?" |
16129 | Suppose it is all true, how are you going to make out where your heiress has been all this time, and what she has been doing?" |
16129 | Suppose that it is all true that you have told me--""Lotty, my dear, when did I ever tell you an untruth?" |
16129 | The husband of Miss Carlotta Claradine, is it? |
16129 | The old lady is a cake-- do you understand? |
16129 | The proofs were in the stolen papers, and though Clara had those papers, who was to show that these papers were actually those in the sealed packet? |
16129 | Then how can you act for him if he''s off his head?" |
16129 | There''s spending in it, is n''t there, Lotty? |
16129 | Want to make your set complete-- eh? |
16129 | Want to sneak one of our books to do it with, do n''t you? |
16129 | Was there any one who knew him before he was married?" |
16129 | Washington?" |
16129 | We may see an advertisement carefully worded, guarded, or perhaps-- Iris, who had access to the place, when your grandfather was out?" |
16129 | Well, dear, you are not going to desert me because you are engaged, are you, Arnold? |
16129 | Well, keep your eyes skinned and the wax ready, will you? |
16129 | Well, you''ll wake''em up a bit, wo n''t you?" |
16129 | Were they come, he asked himself, to arrest him on the spot? |
16129 | What am I to do with an inheritance?" |
16129 | What am I to understand? |
16129 | What are you driving at?" |
16129 | What better advice could he give? |
16129 | What could the savings be? |
16129 | What did he want to go and try and drown me and my mates for? |
16129 | What did you get for them?" |
16129 | What do they amount to? |
16129 | What do you mean by other business?" |
16129 | What do you mean by your forgery and prison? |
16129 | What does it matter to him if you have done the work for which he engaged your services?" |
16129 | What does it matter-- the loss of what was promised but five minutes since? |
16129 | What harm is done to him? |
16129 | What has that got to do with mercy?" |
16129 | What have I done to deserve this happy fate?" |
16129 | What if I see a life more delightful to me than that of which you dream?" |
16129 | What is a woman good for but to help her husband? |
16129 | What is it-- what is the kind of thing you want to know?" |
16129 | What is the address of this woman?" |
16129 | What is the man talking about? |
16129 | What is the stock worth?" |
16129 | What kind of thing do you want? |
16129 | What more can any girl want for any station? |
16129 | What of that?" |
16129 | What on earth does Clara mean by the gentle blood breaking out? |
16129 | What shall we do with it, when we get it?" |
16129 | What symptoms are these, so common that one is almost ashamed to write them down, but the infallible symptoms of love? |
16129 | What was he going to do? |
16129 | What was the real name of the girl?" |
16129 | What will Clara say? |
16129 | What will he think and say? |
16129 | What will you do for him?" |
16129 | What''s a pretty face to them compared with the handling of a big salary every week? |
16129 | What''s he done?" |
16129 | What''s the good of being a pal if you wo n''t help a fellow? |
16129 | Where can it be gone to?" |
16129 | Where could it be? |
16129 | Where did you get your wisdom? |
16129 | Where did you learn? |
16129 | Where did you pick up this girl, Arnold? |
16129 | Where do you think I could raise three hundred pounds? |
16129 | Where should I learn, but in America? |
16129 | Where was the delicacy of feature and manner which Clara had never ceased to commend in speaking of her lost cousin? |
16129 | Where, then, will be your kingdom? |
16129 | Who are her people?" |
16129 | Who could steal it?" |
16129 | Who else was there who would steal the papers? |
16129 | Who forged his name?" |
16129 | Who is this other?" |
16129 | Who should resemble the fox if not the second- hand bookseller? |
16129 | Who was your master?" |
16129 | Whom should suspicion affright except the guilty?" |
16129 | Why ca n''t ladies go, when gentlemen go? |
16129 | Why could n''t you let things go on? |
16129 | Why did he rush off to Joe''s lodgings? |
16129 | Why did he sit trembling? |
16129 | Why did n''t he?" |
16129 | Why do n''t you give a fellow a lift? |
16129 | Why else did he turn so pale? |
16129 | Why in the world should we talk about getting rich?" |
16129 | Why not ladies, then? |
16129 | Why not to- night, if you have a secret to tell us?" |
16129 | Why not you as well as anybody else?" |
16129 | Why not, I say? |
16129 | Why not?" |
16129 | Why should n''t he?" |
16129 | Why should she want to know me? |
16129 | Why should this one? |
16129 | Why, I suppose you''ll get somebody else to handle the paste- brush and the scissors, and tie up the parcels, and water the shop-- eh? |
16129 | Why, ca n''t he help himself?" |
16129 | Why, do n''t they applaud you till their hands drop off?" |
16129 | Why, if I were not quite certain, do you think I should have made this promise? |
16129 | Why, what matter if she sent away all her pupils? |
16129 | Why, what will it matter? |
16129 | Will any one save you a second time? |
16129 | Will that do for you?" |
16129 | Will that do, Arnold?" |
16129 | Will you give him some?" |
16129 | Will you have this story first, or shall we first open the safe and read the contents of the parcel?" |
16129 | Will you help him?" |
16129 | Will you listen for a moment? |
16129 | Will you not dine with us to- night? |
16129 | Will you now do something for your benefactor?" |
16129 | Will you stay and have lunch?" |
16129 | Will you take off your bonnet?" |
16129 | Will you take your fifty pounds, and leave us in peace?" |
16129 | Will you, please, take them back? |
16129 | Williams,''he sings out to me,''how fur off''s the horizon?'' |
16129 | Woman, how much?" |
16129 | Would any one suppose such vengefulness could exist in a white- haired man that had known his seventieth birthday? |
16129 | Would you step upstairs?" |
16129 | Yet what had his Iris in common with a girl who had been brought up in America? |
16129 | Yet you gave me back my letters?" |
16129 | You are not sorry that Iris has returned, are you?" |
16129 | You are to have it, then? |
16129 | You came to me about that business, perhaps? |
16129 | You gave mine back to me; did you think that I would ever part with yours? |
16129 | You have in your own possession,"he continued,"have you not, all the papers which establish her identity?" |
16129 | You thought to live upon my earnings, did you? |
16129 | You understand that?'' |
16129 | You went to see Mr. Emblem''s grandson, did you not?" |
16129 | You will, then, do nothing? |
16129 | You''re a lodger of old Emblem''s, ai n''t you?" |
16129 | You?" |
16129 | and can not they be acquired? |
16129 | and what are you doing then? |
16129 | he asked,"all your life? |
16129 | repeated Arnold;"what is her notion of anything? |
16129 | said Clara;"and in my house, too?" |
16129 | said Mr. Emblem,"do you think that I would take your little all?" |
16129 | what did that matter when you were safe? |
16129 | what is the amount, after all, to a substantial man like yourself? |
16129 | who is honest? |
16129 | who is that?" |
16129 | you''ve got to prove that first, have n''t you? |
