172I wonder why?
172I''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?"
172If a jam factory employs a trained chemist, why is n''t it worth a publisher''s while to employ an expert book analyzer?
172If he really expected to get into Weintraub''s house, why had he not laid his plans more carefully?
172If that is n''t an absurdity, what is?

6365Suppose you wait a day or two?
6365Tell on him?"
6365Then your name is Pep Clover?"
6365They 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?
6365They were soon at the table, and having by a lucky chance( or was it the girl''s natural tact?)
6365To Richard came the ever- recurring, thought, what next?
6365Vere ist der poy now?"
6365What can have become of Tom?"
6365What did he accuse you of?"
6365What do you think I am, to take money from you for that?

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