6163If an individual member of one firm in the trade would speculate, why not members of other firms?
6163If my expenses and Mrs. Slater''s payments were provided for why worry either of them?
6163In the name of justice, why should a man be placed in such a position?
6163Is it any wonder that in this condition of mind my judgment should have failed me or that my operations should turn out badly?

6163What was to be done?
6163What would the world be without it?
6163When I had finished she raised her head, and after kissing me fondly, said with a glorious smile:"Why, my darling, is that all?
6163Where is the use?
6163Where should we go next to seek an abiding place?
6163Where was it?

5820O see ye not yon narrow road So thick beset wi''thorns and briers? 5820 Oh, I do n''t think I should come to Fallkill to practice, but I must do something when I am through school; and why not medicine?"
5820Rusticated?
5820Ruth is a dear girl, Philip, and has as much firmness of purpose as ever, but do n''t you see she has just discovered that she is fond of society? 5820 We heard you were at the Sassacus House,"were Ruth''s first words;"and this I suppose is your friend?"
5820What is that?
5820What then?
5820What''s to be done?
5820What''s yours?
5820Who''s just superb?
5820Why did he come to you?
5820Why should I want you to go away? 5820 Why should n''t I try to make a pleasant evening?
5820Would you have her sign our petition?
5820You telegraphed yesterday?
5820And besides, ai n''t I going to do those things?
5820And when I say thin or not thin it''s a fact, anyway, they say,''Come, now, but do you really believe that?''
5820Bless your heart, you dear women live right in the present all the time-- but a man, why a man lives----"In the future, Beriah?
5820But ai n''t it a ripping toad, though?
5820But do n''t we live in the future most too much, Beriah?
5820But tell me father,"continued Ruth, not to be put off,"is thee still going on with that Bigler and those other men who come here and entice thee?"
5820Did n''t uncle tell me only last Saturday, that I might as well go down to Arizona and hunt for diamonds?
5820Did thee see anybody whom thee would like to live with always in Fallkill?"
5820Did you ever see that?"
5820Did you forget the railroad?
5820Do you go to Senator X?
5820How far from here is Columbus River?
5820How was he getting on with his navigation scheme, would it be likely to take him from home to Jefferson City; or to Washington, perhaps?
5820I do n''t mean to fret, I do n''t mean to worry; and I do n''t, once a month, do I, dear?
5820I know you''re doing all you can, and I do n''t want to seem repining and ungrateful-- for I''m not, Beriah-- you know I''m not, do n''t you?"
5820If he wo n''t stick to any industry except for himself now, what will he do then?"
5820Is it an appropriation?
5820Is it that railroad?"
5820Just stop and fancy a moment-- just think a little-- don''t anything suggest itself?
5820Let me see--where was I?
5820Perhaps the reader has never been there?
5820Sellers should, have business there; say, about this Columbus River appropriation?"
5820Sellers, who had been a confederate and had not thriven by it, should give him the cold shoulder?
5820So, do n''t you see?
5820Things ai n''t so dark, are they?
5820To what purpose?
5820Was she fascinated with Harry''s careless''bon homie''and gay assurance?
5820We''ve got the rail road to fall back on; and in the meantime, what are we worrying about that$ 200,000 appropriation for?
5820What difference does it make about the mood and tense of a mere verb?
5820What do you suppose I am staying in Hawkeye for, week after week, when I ought to be with my corps?"
5820When, however, they reached Stone''s Landing the Senator looked about him and inquired,"Is this Napoleon?"
5820Where''ll it be by the middle of summer?
5820Who shall say that this is not the golden age of mutual trust, of unlimited reliance upon human promises?
5820Why not, she said, why should n''t I do as other women have done?
5820Why will father have anything to do with him?
5820Would Ruth be glad to hear, he wondered, that he was coming East?
5820Would thee have me sit here like a bird on a bough and wait for somebody to come and put me in a cage?"
5820Would you?
5820You being a stranger, how could you do otherwise?
5820You want an appointment?
5820You''d go''straight to the Committee, or to the Interior office, I suppose?
5818Believe it, indeed? 5818 But how can I, father?
5818But how should I know whether they were boys or girls?
5818But the money, child?
5818Could n''t you, Washington-- seeing it''s you that wants the ride? 5818 De law sakes, Chile, did n''t I see him a lookin''at us?".
5818Did you feel scared, Uncle Dan''l?
5818Do you reckon he saw, us, Uncle Dan''l? 5818 Do you see these papers?
5818Does I reckon? 5818 Goodness sakes, mars Clay, do n''t de Good Book say?
5818How''s your wood?
5818It''s the same old boy, Nancy, jest the same old boy-- ain''t he?
5818Jim, what is the meaning of that?
5818Nancy, do you suppose I listened to such a preposterous proposition? 5818 Throw it away?
5818Uncle Dan''l, do you reckon it was the prayer that saved us?
5818Well what did you run for?
5818Well, what have you got on hand-- anything?
5818What''s a stirrin'', down''bout the Forks?
5818What''s plasterin''?
5818Where''s your hogs now? 5818 ''Sides, do n''t it call''em de HE- brew chil''en? 5818 Ai n''t any hay and oats? 5818 An''d''you spec''he gwyne to let''em off''dout somebody ast him to do it? 5818 An''warn''t he a lookin''right at dis gang heah, an''warn''t he jes''a reachin''for''em? 5818 And so you would n''t even part with Clay? 5818 And what do you suppose they burn? 5818 And what do you think you''ll do, Washington, when you get to Hawkeye? 5818 But as soon as the land is sold----"Emily, were you about to say something?
5818But the Amaranth''s head was almost abreast the Boreas''s stern:"How''s your steam, now, Harry?"
5818Could n''t you write and ask them?"
5818Did n''t he buy, after all?
5818Did n''t he make an offer?"
5818Did you ever see a house afire?
5818Dis Chile would like to know whah we''d a ben now if it warn''t fo''dat prah?
5818Finish your invention for making window- glass opaque?"
5818Folks all well, I suppose?
5818George Davis, the pilot on watch, shouted to the night- watchman on deck:"How''s she loaded?"
5818Hawkins said to himself,"How can a man ever lose faith?
5818Hawkins said:"Washington, my boy, what will you do when you get to be one of the richest men in the world?"
5818He bent over a speaking tube and said:"Who''s on watch down there?"
5818He muttered:"Gone?
5818Here, Jerry, got anything to do?
5818How could you do it, Clay?"
5818How much money have you got?"
5818How was the cottonwood stump on the false point below Boardman''s Island this morning?"
5818How''s your draft?"
5818I suppose you-- you''ll still go, Si?"
5818I wonder what is in the wind?
5818If dey was gals would n''t dey be de SHE- brew chil''en?
5818It is true we are not rich-- but still you are not sorry--- you have n''t any misgivings about the additions?"
5818Like her?
5818Little strangers?
5818Mrs. Hawkins looked up white and despairing:"You threw away this chance, you let this man go, and we in this awful trouble?
5818Mrs. Hawkins sprang in, beaming:"Well, Si?"
5818Now how does that strike you?"
5818Offer?
5818Old Damrell said:"Tha hain''t no news''bout the jedge, hit ai n''t likely?"
5818Rheumatism?
5818Sleep?
5818Tell me-- is anything the matter?"
5818The boat was a moving earthquake by this time:"How is she now?"
5818The captain spoke through the tube:"What steam are You carrying?"
5818The"old man"spoke through the tube:"What is she- carrying now?"
5818Then I suppose you''ll finish your plan of coloring hen''s eggs by feeding a peculiar diet to the hen?"
5818Then he said:"Can I get well?
5818Three years of introductory trade in the orient and what will be the result?
5818Washington, Emily, do n''t you know me?
5818Well; do you know, they''ve quit burning wood in some places in the Eastern States?
5818Whah was yo''eyes?
5818What has started this sudden excitement about iron?
5818Where are the papers?--Have you got the papers safe?
5818Why could n''t these things have happened in father''s day?
5818Why what is the republic of America for an eye- water country?
5818Why woman, do you suppose that man do n''t know what he is about?
5818Willing?
5818Wo n''t I fix you, though!--ponies, cows, dogs, everything you can think of that''ll delight a child''s heart- and-- Why how''s this?
5818Would I go to all that trouble and bother for the poor crumbs a body might pick up in this country?
5818You would n''t sell one of them at a good round figure?"
5818an''a goin''on turrible-- an''do de Lord carry on dat way''dout dey''s sumfin do n''t suit him?
5818he''ll be back here tomorrow, sure, and take my offer; take it?
62035A discovery? 62035 A trail for what?"
62035An office?
62035And the second equals?
62035Are all you people soft like that?
62035Bill, have you gone mad?
62035Bill, what is it?
62035Bill, where have you been?
62035But how''d they get so bright?
62035But if you were... ah... for example, a monopoly commissioner like Tubby--"Tubby?
62035But what makes you think they''ll get any caviar?
62035But what''s going to happen to Castlebottom?
62035But what''s it the formula for?
62035But why?
62035Caviar?
62035Caviar?
62035Dissolves them, eh?
62035Do n''t you see what''ll happen? 62035 Do you blame me?"
62035Do you mind telling me who''s responsible?
62035Do you really mean that?
62035Freebooter, eh?
62035Has that anything to do with their brightness?
62035How''d you get here?
62035It is tough, is n''t it?
62035Liquor, did you say?
62035Liquor?
62035Run?
62035So that''s freebooting?
62035So you publish a paper here?
62035Soft, eh?
62035Taboo? 62035 They after the caviar already?"
62035What about the segmentation?
62035What are you doing?
62035What do you mean?
62035What the devil happened?
62035What''s that for?
62035What''s this, a trick?
62035Where do I fit in?
62035Where have I been? 62035 Where was I?"
62035Where''s your transmitter?
62035Who are we chasing?
62035Why do n''t you come down and wait?
62035Why will it be that long?
62035Why? 62035 Why?"
62035Will it work for whiskey too?
62035With a freebooter? 62035 Yeah, how do I get an_ equals_?"
62035You and your people want caviar, eh? 62035 You do n''t know about the segmentation?"
62035You know there''s an etheroel crisis? 62035 You know what?
62035You know who I am? 62035 You mean Tubby... ah... Castlebottom agreed to elope and be married on Uva?"
62035You mean they wo n''t dissolve?
62035You mean you do n''t know why you were running?
62035You mean, hold it like this?
62035You want to hear?
62035You''d give me a buzz?
62035You''ve got caviar?
62035You''ve heard of the caviar wars?
62035*****"I say, what are you going to do about this, freebooter?"
62035Are you, or are n''t you going to radio your bank and have them open your account unconditionally to a company I''m floating right now?"
62035Come on now, give me the lowdown on why those wells are sealed?
62035Everything you''ll need: umbrella stand, chairs and a do- not- disturb sign... ah.... What''s your name?"
62035Have you got your gun, Kitty?"
62035How about letting me show you around?"
62035How about lunch any one of these years?"
62035I suppose you''re the people up for trial?"
62035Is that right?"
62035Now, which one of you caused the trouble?"
62035On Uva?
62035They do n''t need any insulation here, eh?"
62035Was it a crime to drink on Uva?
62035We capitalized on nothing but their brains, eh?"
62035What about the caviar?
62035What were they going to do now?
62035What''s the company?"
62035Why did n''t you tell me?"
62035Why had n''t Castlebottom or the Patrol told him about this business of caviar?
62035Why had n''t they warned him the Uvans were touchy about revolution?
62035Why had the Uvans jumped on him without explaining?
62035You know what that means?"
62035You mean you knew about the etheroel wells all this time?"
62035You''re not here for that, are you?"
5824And Ruth?
5824Are his great- grand- children still living?
5824But she was different after that?
5824But what should I lecture about?
5824Do you recognize, that hand- writing?
5824Does it leak anywhere?
5824Gentlemen, have you agreed upon your verdict?
5824Had you the least suspicion of the prisoner''s intention, up to the moment of the shooting?
5824How long have you known the prisoner?
5824How?
5824Indeed I do n''t know.--Why should he?
5824Is it in good repair?
5824Leak? 5824 Major Sellers, what is your occupation?"
5824Mrs. Hawkins,said Mr. Braham,"will you''be kind enough to state the circumstances of your finding Laura?"
5824No? 5824 Not for thy profession?"
5824Well, then, why should n''t a man want to steal it if he got a chance?
5824What is it?
5824Why-- a-- do the clothes fall out of it when it is-- when it is stationary?
5824Why? 5824 Why?"
5824Why?
5824You mean,said Mr. Braham,"that there was an unnatural, insane gleam in her eyes?"
5824After the recovery of Laura from her long illness, did Mrs. Hawkins think there, were any signs of insanity about her?
5824And where to begin?
5824Are we to be shut out from showing that the motive attributed to us could not by reason of certain mental conditions exist?
5824At the time of first finding Laura on the steamboat, did she notice that Laura''s mind was at all deranged?
5824Braham?"
5824But upon one occasion, old Senator Thompson said to me, its my opinion, Colonel Sellers"--"Did you ever see any body who had seen him?"
5824Come, now, answer fair-- wouldn''t you steal it?
5824Could Phil let him have a hundred, say, for ninety days?
5824Dat Mister Prierly, he do n''t never come back here no more, ai n''t it?"
5824Did he accompany her to a reception at Mrs. Shoonmaker''s a day or two before?
5824Did n''t Miss Hawkins refuse you?"
5824Do n''t you see?
5824Do you want to carry water in it?
5824Following that occupation with Miss Hawkins?"
5824Gentlemen, did she ever emerge from this delirium?
5824Had he noticed any change in, Laura after her illness?
5824He was not able to deny that he believed Senator Dilworthy to be guilty-- but what then?
5824I believe Major Lackland is not living, Colonel?"
5824If he, seeks his daughter, it is the purposeless search of a lunatic, as one who wanders bereft of reason, crying where is my child?
5824Let the jury do what they please; what difference is it going to make?
5824Mr. Noble--"Contempt of whom?"
5824Mr. Noble--"Then will the Committee ask the question?"
5824Now what a way to talk that is: What do you suppose that trunk is worth?"
5824Now what would you call stealing?"
5824Or would not the truer way be to find out whether the Senator was capable of being entrapped into so shameless an act, and then try him?
5824Selby?"
5824Sellers, I believe?"
5824Sellers, did you know a Major Lackland?"
5824Sellers, did you; ever see this man, this supposed father?"
5824Sellers, have you any, reason to suppose that this man is still living?"
5824Sellers; you know the parties here, you are a friend of the family?"
5824Shall I do it, or shall I not?
5824Suppose you were a thief, and that trunk was lying around and nobody watching-- wouldn''t you steal it?
5824The question was this:"Were the doctors clear that the deceased had no disease which might soon have carried him off, if he had not been shot?"
5824Then he rushes outen the house, I goes in-- and I says,"Missis did you ring?"
5824Three or four tines in as many weeks he said to himself,"Am I a visionary?
5824Was it such an extraordinary case?
5824Was she not the heroine of the hour?
5824Was this to be done by trying an obscure adventurer for attempting to trap a Senator into bribing him?
5824Were not these following cheers the expression of popular approval and affection?
5824Were you not a lover of Miss Hawkins?"
5824What did he do first?
5824What do you mean by does it leak?"
5824What does she say?"
5824What is it?
5824What is the matter with you?"
5824What is your occupation?"
5824What occurred?
5824What would the morning bring?
5824What would you do first, after you had tomahawked your mother at the breakfast table for putting too much sugar in your coffee?
5824Who is he, where is he?
5824Why did you deal in bank bills on this particular occasion?"
5824Why does the Senate still stick to this pompous word,''Investigation?''
5824Why not?
5824Why, are n''t trunks always being stolen?"
5824Witness asked her"Who?"
5824Would he one day hear that she had died a felon''s death?
5824Would the conductor open the door and ask for Philip Sterling, and hand him a fatal dispatch?
5824You can do more for her now, sir, than I can?"
5824You have my card?"
6495But what did you do when you heard of it?
6495Was I here last Thursday?
6495Why not? 6495 Years have passed away,"continued the Senator,"and what has Texas got?"
6495After having bribed legislatures to legalize his enormous issue of watered stock, what was Vanderbilt''s next move?
6495And he went on: And while the toiler is thus engaged in creating the world''s value, how fares his own interest and well- being?
6495And how?
6495And the cause?
6495And the grounds of the decision were what?
6495And the reason for this parental sternness?
6495And the remedy proposed in the memorial?
6495And to whom was the business of buying, equipping and supervising them intrusted?
6495And upon what evidence?
6495And what became of these millions in loot?
6495And what had the Credit Mobilier Company charged?
6495And what was Vanderbilt''s share of the$ 44,000,000?
6495And who were the legistators bribed?
6495And who, it may be curiously asked, were the classes self destined or self selected to do this regenerating?
6495As a young man what did Jay Gould see?
6495But how was the work of destruction to be done?
6495But how was this wealth to be obtained?
6495But what became of the charges against Vanderbilt?
6495But who did the work of contracting and building, and who determined what the cost was?
6495But who specifically did the bribing?
6495Collamer.--The Collins line was set up by special contract?
6495Could the mechanic or farmer demand a better law?
6495Did Roberts sell or chatter any other boats to the Government?
6495Did it not hold out the opportunity to the poorest to get land for which payment could be gradually made?
6495Did the Government make any move to arrest, indict and imprison Vanderbilt and his tools?
6495Did the courts punish these men for criminal contempt?
6495Did they foot this bill out of their own pockets?
6495For how much?
6495Had not Vanderbilt and other capitalists often bought up Congress and Legislatures and common councils?
6495He controlled a sufficient number of judges; why should not they buy up the Legislature, as he had often done?
6495His ambition was consummated; what mattered it to him that his fortune was begot in blackmail and extortion, bribery and theft?
6495How did Vanderbilt manage to extort millions of dollars?
6495How was this alarming exigency to be met?
6495If the process was so marked in 1900 what must it be now?
6495Is the coffee at all merchantable?
6495Meanwhile, how was the great farming class faring?
6495Since Government was actually, although not avowedly or apparently, a property regime, what was the condition of the millions of non- propertied?
6495Since they could no longer use their ships or make profit on ocean routes why not palm off their vessels upon the Government?
6495They had been used to stifle many another protest of the workers; why not this?
6495To whom did the Government turn in this exigency?
6495Verily, what of the great hosts of toilers who have done their work and shuffled off to oblivion?
6495WHY THIS BIASED VIEW OF GOULD''S CAREER?
6495Was ever a finer, a more glorious chance presented?
6495Were they true or calumniatory?
6495What did Gould''s plunder amount to?
6495What did he do with this sum?
6495What did the Vanderbilts and their allies now do?
6495What had the company done with its large land grant?
6495What if helpless people are swept off by starvation or by diseases superinduced by lack of proper food?
6495What if they did suffer and perish?
6495What if this property had been bought, laid out and graded by the city at considerable expense?
6495What if$ 50,000,000 had been stolen?
6495What was it?
6495What was the result of all this investigation?
6495What were the aspirations of the working class which it was to uplift?
6495What were the consequences to this large body of the seizure by a few of the greater part of the public domain?
6495What were their aspirations, difficulties, movements and struggles?
6495What, however, of the workers in the mines?
6495What, may we ask, were these men snarling, cursing and fighting over?
6495Whence came it to this curious repository?
6495Where lay the trouble?
6495Where were you?"
6495While the combination was high- handedly forcing the consumer to pay enormous prices, how was it acting toward them?
6495Who could deny that the phalanx of capitalists scrambling forward to share in this carnival of plunder were not gifted with unerring judgment?
6495Who did not know that he had bribed Legislature after Legislature, and had constantly resorted to conspiracy and fraud?
6495Who would inherit his aggregation of wealth?
6495Whom did he appoint as the supreme official in charge of railroad transportation?
6495Why be satisfied with one portion, when the whole was within reach?
6495Why continue to act as middlemen in transporting the coal?
6495Why not consolidate the two roads?
6495Why not now do the same?
6495Why not vest in themselves the ownership of these vast areas of coal lands, and secure all the profits instead of those from merely handling the coal?
6495Why, indeed, should they not have their gilded palaces?
6495Why, then, should we continue to waste the public money?"
6495Yet, it may well be asked now, even if for the first time, why has Jay Gould been plucked out as a special object of opprobrium?
6495[ Footnote: Q.--Do you think you could remember the aggregate amount of wrong- doing on the part of Mr. Gould that you have discovered?
6495[ Footnote: Roscoe Conkling, a noted Republican politician, said of him:"Chauncey Depew?
6495[ Footnote:"Did you ever receive any money from either Fisk or Gould to be used in bribing the Legislature?"
6495[ Footnote:"Who Owns the United States?"
12257About thirty, eh? 12257 And if he fails to make good--_au revoir_, eh?"
12257And what was your grade when Kaiser Bill went A.W.O.L.?
12257And you''ll deliver it to me in stateroom A, car 7, aboard the train at Third and Townsend Streets, at seven fifty- five tonight?
12257Are you looking for that little old man with the Henry Clay collar and the white mutton- chop whiskers?
12257But how could you have the courage to let me in for a two thousand dollar vase? 12257 But, have you ever tried it?"
12257Does anybody ever buy skunk spruce, sir?
12257Ever read Kipling''s Barrack Room Ballads, Skinner?
12257Got a ticket?
12257Have you been all this time on that errand?
12257Have you got a misery in your back, or is Herbert Hoover the wrong man for Secretary of Commerce?
12257How?
12257I told you then that Henderson would n''t make good, did n''t I?
12257I wonder what Skinner_ will_ pay you?
12257Is n''t it a neat business card?
12257Iss dot der fire marshal?
12257Look here,he demanded suddenly,"do you know a good diamond when you see it?"
12257Meaning whom?
12257Mr. Metz? 12257 My dear Skinner, why the devil wait until the first of the year?
12257No encouragement, eh?
12257No, P."C?
12257Not at all blue or discouraged?
12257So it was a plant?
12257Well, Mr. Peck,he queried gently,"what can I do for you?"
12257Well,Herman Joost queried,"do we stay here all night?"
12257What are they worth?
12257What do you mean by flagging this train?
12257What do you mean-- young?
12257What do you think of that, sir?
12257What for?
12257What is it?
12257What sort of stock is it?
12257What''s the cursed thing worth?
12257When do I report for duty, sir?
12257Where''s your telephone?
12257Who does Mr. Ricks want killed and where will he have the body delivered?
12257Who was he?
12257Why do you think he''ll do?
12257Why, what have we done?
12257Why?
12257Will you wait here until I go to my hotel and get one?
12257Wo n''t you let me have two thousand dollars, Captain Peasley?
12257You know vot dot vase costs?
12257You refuse, absolutely, to accept my check?
12257Am I to be denied a sentimental interest in matters where I have a controlling financial interest?
12257And his soul goes marching on, eh?
12257And you, also, Skinner?
12257But did you consult me when you decided to send him out to China on his own?"
12257By the way, how is Andrews getting along in his Shanghai job?"
12257Comrade Peck will feel a whole lot better as a result, and who knows?
12257Crazy?"
12257Did n''t anybody ever offer you something better?"
12257Did n''t you realize that the price was absurd and that I might repudiate the transaction?"
12257Do I get it?"
12257Do I make myself clear?"
12257Do you know why I asked you to take on Bill Peck?"
12257Does it set on a base, or does it not?
12257E- what?"
12257Eh?
12257Have you ever had any experience selling skunk spruce?"
12257Have you two boobs lost your ability to judge men or did you ever have such ability?"
12257He may conclude you''re a human being, after all, and learn to love you?"
12257He''s been with us long enough to have acquired sufficient experience to enable him--""Has he acquired the courage to tackle the job, Matt?"
12257He''s better than Andrews, is n''t he?"
12257How could I reject a boy who simply would not be rejected?
12257How did you get the two thousand dollars to pay for this vase?"
12257How old was Matt Peasley when I turned over the Blue Star Navigation Company to him, lock, stock and barrel?
12257How the devil could you have the heart to reject that crippled ex- soldier?
12257I''m boss of the Blue Star Navigation Company, am I not?
12257If Matt makes a mistake, it''s your job to remind him of it before the results manifest themselves, is it not?
12257In civil life you''re going to be worth half a dozen live ones-- aren''t you?''
12257Is it a solid blue, or is it figured?"
12257Matt,"he concluded, turning to his son- in- law,"what do you think of Andrews for that Shanghai job?"
12257Mr. Ben Metz?
12257Mr. Heck?
12257Now, tell me, son, were n''t you tempted to quit when you discovered the almost insuperable obstacles I''d placed in your way?"
12257Peck-- p- e- c- k.""D- e- c- k?"
12257Peck?"
12257Peck?"
12257Ricks?"
12257Ricks?"
12257Ricks?"
12257Skinner, dear boy, have n''t we got about half a million feet of skunk spruce to saw off on somebody?"
12257Skinner, have you got a candidate for this job?"
12257Skinner, how_ could_ you do it?"
12257Understand?"
12257Vot time iss it?"
12257Vot you think I am?
12257Was the name spelled Cohen, Cohan, Cohn, Kohn or Coen?
12257What are you doing this afternoon?"
12257What kind of a job are you going to give him, Skinner, my dear boy?"
12257What sort of blue is it, how tall is it and what is, approximately, its greatest diameter?
12257What''s the matter with you, Matt?
12257When did they sell you a membership in the military forces of the United States of America?"
12257When did you first make up your mind to go to work for us?"
12257Which country club?
12257Who was he, Bill?"
12257Who wished to speak to him?
12257Why are we maintaining untested material in this shop, anyhow?
12257Why do you come to me?"
12257Why has n''t he been tested?
12257Why?
12257You''ll agree with me, Skinner, that if he delivers the blue vase he''ll be worth ten thousand dollars a year as our Oriental manager?"
5819Abolish''n wan''t it? 5819 And thee wo n''t go?"
5819And when thee has got the education thee wants, and lost all relish for the society of thy friends and the ways of thy ancestors, what then?
5819But how does that concern us? 5819 But in what capacity would I go?"
5819Can''t- take- me?
5819Did thee ever think, Margaret, whether, she can endure being thwarted in an, object on which she has so set her heart, as she has on this? 5819 Harry,"said Philip, after a pause,"what have you got on those big boots for; do you expect to wade ashore?"
5819Has thy mother led a useless life?
5819Have you breakfasted Colonel?
5819Here?
5819How far?
5819I know,said Margaret Bolton, with a half anxious smile, thee chafes against all the ways of Friends, but what will thee do?
5819I reckon you did n''t git them boots no wher''s this side o''Sent Louis?
5819I suppose your capital is largely in your plantation?
5819I suppose, Senator, that you have become acclimated to this country?
5819Is n''t this jolly?
5819Is thee going to the Yearly Meeting, Ruth?
5819Plague? 5819 Ruth?"
5819Take it of course,says Gringo, take anything that offers, why not?"
5819Take it? 5819 Thee will no doubt break things enough when thy time comes, child; women always have; but what does thee want now that thee has n''t?"
5819Well, why do n''t you go into something? 5819 What does this mean?
5819What makes you think the road will go there? 5819 What plague, indeed?
5819What sort of business can a young man go into without capital?
5819What''s jolly?
5819What''s the good, father, of a series of human beings who do n''t advance any?
5819When do you go?
5819Where thee and thy family are known?
5819Why did n''t you take it?
5819Why do n''t you see? 5819 Why should I?
5819Yes, but what is it for, what is it all about?
5819An opening eh?"
5819And if I had a fortune, would thee want me to lead a useless life?"
5819And the lectures, and the dissecting rooms, has thee thought of the dissecting rooms?"
5819And was it all present?
5819And, besides, suppose thee does learn medicine?"
5819Are all books lies?
5819At length she interrupted the conversation by asking,"You''d sell the stock, I suppose, Mr. Bigler, to anybody who was attracted by the prospectus?"
5819Bolton?"
5819Brown?"
5819But he only said,"Has thee consulted thy mother about a career, I suppose it is a career thee wants?"
5819Can such a slight little body endure the ordeal of the preparation for, or the strain of, the practice of the profession?"
5819Did I tell you I had an offer from Bobbett and Fanshaw to go into their office as confidential clerk on a salary of ten thousand?"
5819Did she come to herself?
5819Do all men who wear big diamond breast- pins, flourish their knives at table, and use bad grammar, and cheat?"
5819Does thee think I lack nerve?
5819Does thee think thee could stand it six months?
5819Even this open declaration of his hospitable intention not being understood the Colonel politely said,"Gentlemen, will you take something?"
5819Everybody liked the young fellow, for how could they help liking one of such engaging manners and large fortune?
5819First visit?
5819For what would there have been to conquer?
5819From the East, perhaps?
5819How does that fruit strike you?"
5819How does that strike your engineering eye, Mr. Thompson?
5819How is that?"
5819How?
5819I would''nt take three fortunes for one little operation I''ve got on hand now-- have anything from the casters?
5819If they were orphans, would they like to be brought up in a Grecian temple?
5819Is he going to start a daily newspaper among the Kick- a- poos?"
5819Is it true that he gave money to help build the pretty little church of St. James the Less, and that he is, one of the vestrymen?"
5819Is that too soon?"
5819Is the pathos in the eyes of the Beatrice Cenci from her guilt or her innocence?
5819Is thy father willing thee should go away to a school of the world''s people?"
5819It occurred to him, now, that the Colonel had not invited him lately-- could he be offended?
5819It''s twenty miles, on the map, off the straight line of the road?"
5819Jo.?"
5819Jo?"
5819Les, see, what state''s Massachusetts in?"
5819Looking for an opening?"
5819Meantime why should they be separated?
5819Meeting the two friends in the lobby one evening, he asked them to give him the time, and added:"Excuse me, gentlemen-- strangers in St. Louis?
5819No?
5819No?
5819One of the men in Third street asked him the other day, whether his was a high church or a low church?
5819Perhaps I ought n''t said anything, but its bound to come out sooner or later, so what is the odds?
5819Ruth turned square round to her mother, and with an impassive face and not the slightest change of tone, said,"Mother, I''m going to study medicine?"
5819Shall we walk?"
5819She caught his arm and cried,"George, how can you joke so cruelly?
5819Stopping here, gentlemen-- stopping at the Southern?"
5819Was her husband ever cold or indifferent?
5819Was n''t it the broadest and the longest street in the world?
5819Was there anything left in her heart but hate and bitterness, a sense of an infamous wrong at the hands of the only man she had ever loved?
5819Was this the plain family dinner?
5819Was woman ever prudent when she loved?
5819What are their opinions to me?
5819What is there to fear in a person dead more than in a person living?"
5819What one useful thing could I do for a living, for the support of mother and the children?
5819What plague?"
5819What would happen to me if thee should lose thy property and die?
5819Where are you going?"
5819Why is thee so discontented?"
5819Why should I rust, and be stupid, and sit in inaction because I am a girl?
5819Will there not always be rosin enough for the squeaking fiddle- bow?
5819You got that basket of champagne?
5819You have n''t looked about any yet, gentlemen?
5819You''d rather sit here in front than go to my apartments?
5819by the way-- New York, did you say?
5821And that we owe the men and the contractors nearly ten thousand dollars besides?
5821And then-- burst up, I suppose?
5821Another appropriation, do n''t you see?
5821Beg pardon?
5821But how great, Laura? 5821 But is it going to be as much as people say it is?"
5821But the poor Injuns-- not that I care much for Injuns-- what did he do for them?
5821But what makes you think so?
5821But will it be soon, Laura?
5821Close? 5821 Did you see Hopperson last night after the congressional prayer meeting?"
5821Do you find it hard and lonely to be so far from your home and friends, Miss Hawkins?
5821Do you think any thing can be done, sir?
5821Free?
5821Have you Taine''s England?
5821He said that, did he?
5821I suppose you heard of the fright we had two weeks ago last Saturday? 5821 If you had n''t levied the assessment you would have been in a close place I judge?"
5821Indeed? 5821 Indeed?
5821Is it not so, mamma?
5821Is there anything more?
5821My daughter,said the Senator, with a grave look,"I trust there was nothing free in his manner?"
5821Not exactly, he said-- shall I tell you what he said?
5821Now does it, indeed? 5821 Now what can the girl mean?
5821Oh, I saw Senator Balloon"He will help us, I suppose? 5821 They ought, ought they?
5821Was that where you learned to play the bones? 5821 What do they say it is?"
5821Why is n''t it? 5821 Why no-- can that be so?"
5821Why so?
5821Why, Phil,she would say,"what puts you in the dumps to day?
5821All--"Indeed?"
5821Am I right?"
5821And then Hicks went on, with a serious air,"Colonel, if you register a letter, it means that it is of value, does n''t it?
5821Are you fond of watering- places, Miss Hawkins?"
5821Are you?
5821B.''?"
5821Brierly?"
5821But how do those letters strike you?"
5821But how would it strike you if I were to say that I was in Washington all the time this bill was pending?
5821But to go back a bit, it begins to look as if you never saw any of that appropriation at all?"
5821But where is it?"
5821But, after all, was that the best way?
5821Confound the girl, he would say to himself, why does she never tease Harry and that young Shepley who comes here?
5821Did Ruth care for anybody at Fallkill?
5821Did Ruth ever speak of him?
5821Did n''t you show him he was in error about the bill?"
5821Did she care for anything except her profession?
5821Did she think Ruth cared for him?
5821Do n''t you think so Colonel?"
5821Do you know any of their signatures?
5821Do you know their handwriting?"
5821Do you know this signature here?--and this one?
5821Do you know who those initials represent-- and are they forgeries?"
5821Do you like winter, Miss Hawkins?"
5821Do you think I am in love with her?"
5821Does Alice appear to be present when she is absent?"
5821Does he believe in anything?"
5821Does it mend the matter by calling her your sister?
5821Does she think I have turned idiot?
5821Gashly?"
5821Had Ruth a premonition of Philip''s intention, in his manner?
5821Has, a confessor, if she is young and pretty, any feeling?
5821Have n''t you paid the men?"
5821Have you figured up the total of the disbursements I told you of?"
5821He did not make any objections?"
5821He''s a kind of--""Eh?
5821Higgins?"
5821How are we going to pay them when you do n''t honor our drafts?"
5821How do you like Washington?"
5821I can depend on you for that, ca n''t I?"
5821I had to tell him some of the side arrangements, some of the--""You did n''t mention me?"
5821I suppose I did ask you, did n''t I?"
5821I suppose you seldom meet in society now, the people you used to be familiar with twelve or fifteen years ago?"
5821I think we ought all-- to share our pleasures with others, and do what we can to make each other happy, do not you?"
5821I wonder what Dilworthy does think of me anyway?
5821Introductions followed, and then the usual original question,"How do you like Washington, Miss Hawkins?"
5821Is it hymns?"
5821Is n''t that so?"
5821It is part of your business, then?"
5821It is the land that''s to bring the money, is n''t it Laura?
5821Laura--"And Hildebrand and Percy-- are they-- are they like this one?"
5821Let me see-- have I stated all the expenses I''ve been at?
5821Might I ask you to give me the time?
5821Miss Emmeline Gashly--"What and leave poor Johnny Peterson behind?"
5821Mrs. Gashly--"Is it your first visit?"
5821Must you go?
5821No?
5821Oh bless my soul, you ca n''t mean that you have not paid these people?"
5821Oreille?"
5821Oreille?"
5821Said he:"Have you ever read this, ma''m?
5821Sellers took a like amount?"
5821She caught such remarks as,"Who is she?"
5821Some people jump to conclusions without any thought-- you have noticed that?"
5821That''s good economy, is n''t it?"
5821The Senator spoke with feeling, and then added,"I hope you showed Hopperson that our motives were pure?"
5821The appropriation?--that paltry$ 200,000, do you mean?"
5821The porter returned in a minute; and asked whom he would like to see?
5821The president smiled blandly, even sweetly, all through this harangue, and then said:"Is that so?"
5821The words were music to his ear; but what were they compared to the ravishing smile with which she flooded his whole system?
5821Then after a pause-- he did not notice Laura''s smiles"Laura, would you lay the main hall in encaustic tiles, or just in fancy patterns of hard wood?"
5821Then both came forward and the proprietor said:"Is it an American book, ma''m?"
5821Then he said:"Now here, for instance; do you believe that that is a genuine letter?
5821There''s two months''wages due the men, and----""How?
5821There, now-- does that satisfy you?"
5821Was it possible for a gentleman to get even with such a fellow as that conductor on the letter''s own plane?
5821Was n''t it enough to have offered the lady his seat, to have rescued her from an accident, perhaps from death?
5821Was n''t it old what''s his name?
5821Well, was it a myth, or was it a reality?
5821Well, well, well-- how did you ever have the nerve to approach him, of all others?"
5821What did he say?"
5821What woman, under the circumstances, would?
5821What''s the road out?"
5821Whatever become of it?"
5821Why should he have put himself in such a ridiculous position?
5821Why should n''t he speak his mind, and end his doubts?
5821Will it be millions?"
5821You are acquainted with the members down there, of course, else you could not have worked to such advantage?"
5821You can tell me that much, ca n''t you?"
5821You never suspected him?"
5821You remember his saying that, daughter?"
5821You remember, child, your father always admired thunder?"
5821You subscribed for 100 shares of the capital stock, at$ 1,000 a share, I believe?"
5821and what if I added that I put the measure through myself?
5821supplemented by that other usual original question,"Is this your first visit?"
5821that said only the beautiful is useful?"
5823A waste of time, to purify the fountain of public law? 5823 Again I thought, Is this a theatre?
5823And are n''t you tired sometimes of the struggle?
5823Any scruples about capital punishment?
5823Any which?
5823Are you an idiot?
5823Are you cold?
5823Are you comfortable, Laura?
5823But what are the ways?
5823But,asked the Squire,"do you mean to abandon your land in Pennsylvania?"
5823Can I see her letter?
5823Can you read?
5823Can you read?
5823Can you read?
5823Die and leave the Duchess to fight it out all alone? 5823 Do you mean to insult me?"
5823Do you think you would be contented to live in Fallkill, and attend the county Court?
5823Do you think, Mr. Dilworthy, that the Hawkinses will get much of the money?
5823Does n''t it look like it?
5823Have n''t any particular business, eh? 5823 Have you any conscientious objections to capital punishment?"
5823Have you formed or expressed any opinion on this case, and do you know any of the parties?
5823Have you heard of this case?
5823Have you read anything about this case?
5823How is it that the reports made no impression on you?
5823How long does it take to disinfect itself of these minor impurities?
5823I do n''t know, she has a kind of beauty-- she is not like--''Not like Alice?"
5823I say, do you know what an oath is?
5823I''m afraid you could n''t go down very far in four hours-- could you?
5823Is she as beautiful as the newspapers say she is?
5823It goes up into the dozens, does it?
5823Now, Roberts, you are sure about this?
5823Oh, bother the effect!--What is it they do do? 5823 Oh, yes it can, too""Why, how?"
5823On what, for instance, just now?
5823Own some terriers, eh? 5823 Then why waste all the session in that tomfoolery of trying members?"
5823Tired? 5823 Well wo n''t it expel anybody?"
5823Well, at last, what do you think happened? 5823 Well, what did Congress do?"
5823Well, when nobody is expelled, what does the country think then?
5823Well?
5823Were there no combinations, no railroad jobs, no mining schemes put through in connection with the election? 5823 What for?
5823What is to hinder having a home of my, own?
5823What is your business?
5823What is your reason for supposing that there is coal there?
5823What sort of a home is it for the wife whose husband is always away riding about in his doctor''s gig?
5823What-- sure that it''s coal?
5823When did you strike it?
5823Who does it have a good moral effect on?
5823Who will pay for the sign, Ruth?
5823Why, do you suppose they will hang a woman? 5823 Would this feeling rather incline you against a capital conviction?"
5823Would you object to finding a person guilty-- of murder on evidence?
5823You do n''t mean to say,asked Philip,"that he went in without paying anything?"
5823Am I in some far- off monarchy, looking upon little princes and princesses?
5823Am I in some strange foreign clime where the children are marvels that we know not of?
5823Am I nothing-- to you?"
5823And can you eat any thing?"
5823And what do you think it was?
5823And would you want me to be dependent, Philip?"
5823At the same moment the lady in the bonnet advanced towards him and said something like,"George, will you go with me?"
5823But thee did n''t listen to him again?"
5823But what if he did?
5823But, Ruth, do you think you would be happier or do more good in following your profession than in having a home of your own?"
5823Coal?
5823Come, now, how do they proceed?"
5823Come, what is the matter?
5823Could Laura have run away with him?
5823Did anybody tell you to say you had no opinion about it?"
5823Did he ever hear of this case?
5823Did he not know that the very"spittoon"which his judgeship used cost the city the sum of one thousand dollars?
5823Did it last year?
5823Do n''t you see how our bad luck has worked on me?
5823Do they say I shot him?".
5823Do you suppose they will be so barbarous as that?"
5823Do you think a Congress of ours could convict the devil of anything if he were a member?"
5823Had he not helped to build and furnish this very Court House?
5823Had the flight anything to do with Selby?
5823Has n''t it good timber, and does n''t the railroad almost touch it?"
5823Have not these big babies with beards filled all literature with their outcries, their griefs and their lamentations?
5823Have you any conscientious scruples about capital punishment?"
5823Have you ever heard of this case?"
5823Hawkins?"
5823He was about to be sworn, when the district attorney turning to him carelessly, remarked,"Understand the nature of an oath?"
5823Hold on a bit?
5823How do they proceed?
5823I ask you, my little friends, What did my consciousness reply?
5823I have been asking myself as I sat here, Where am I?
5823I wonder if Mr. Bolton''would rather sell out or work it?"
5823In Harry''s- room on the table Philip found this note:"Dear Mr. Brierly:--Can you meet me at the six o''clock train, and be my escort to New York?
5823Is it a concert or a gilded opera?
5823Is it nothing to show a disposition to sift things and bring people to a strict account?
5823Is it some other vain, brilliant, beautiful temple of soul- staining amusement and hilarity?
5823Is this woman a specimen of your western friends?"
5823It shall never be said that Beriah Sellers--Come in?"
5823Keep a rat pit?"
5823Laura''s only reply was, very simply,"Did I shoot him?
5823Let''s see?"
5823Ruth, do you believe a woman ever becomes a devil?"
5823Struck it, eh?
5823The University bill was sure to pass this, time, and that would make money plenty, but might not the, help come too late?
5823The attorney sat down, and the clerk called?"
5823The clerk says that the gentleman asked her,"What do you want to see him for?"
5823The man was about to be sworn, when Mr. Braham asked,"Could your father read?"
5823Then what is it?
5823Then what suggested it to you to volunteer that remark?"
5823Then where am I?
5823We took it to be that""Did you from the first?"
5823Well, what''s your general business?
5823What are you wilting down like that, for?
5823What did my consciousness reply?
5823What do you do for a living?"
5823What else, can we get for you?"
5823What quality is it?"
5823What should you say it was, children?
5823What was Laura''s object in taking Harry?
5823What was it for?"
5823What would he care for it then?
5823When?
5823Where could they, have gone?
5823Where is it?
5823Who would be alive to care for it then?
5823Why, indeed, might we not feel pity for a woman whose brilliant career had been so suddenly extinguished in misfortune and crime?
5823Would Harry be such a fool as to be dragged into some public scandal?
5823Would it never get on?
5823Would the clerk tell him that a lady and gentleman wished to see him for a moment in the parlor?
5823Would you like to try it again in the spring, Phil?"
5823Yes-- where am I?
5822And his wife!--Does he take his family? 5822 And now perhaps you think that if I refuse to support your bill, you will make a grand exposure?"
5822And you believed these slanders?
5822And you do love me a little?
5822Angry?
5822Believe in what?
5822But perhaps you do not know, you who have so much admiration, how sincere and overmastering his love is for you?
5822By the way,asked Harry,"who is that rather handsome party that''s hanging''round Laura?
5822Can I help it if they are attentive, can I be rude? 5822 Col. Selby, is it not?"
5822Did I?
5822Did Senator Bland?
5822Did he copy your speech for you?
5822Did you see those Japs, Miss Leavitt?
5822Did you send for we merely to insult me? 5822 Did you?
5822Do n''t you think he is distinguished looking?
5822Do you know him?
5822Do you? 5822 Does he know many Southerners?"
5822Does he want any capital? 5822 Excuse my bluntness,"he continued,"but would the knowledge of his love; would his devotion, make any difference to you in your Washington life?"
5822I suppose, though, you do n''t see much of the old rebel element?
5822In respect to what?
5822Indeed? 5822 Is anything uncommon going on?"
5822It''s who?
5822Laura? 5822 Miss Hawkins, what do yo mean by such talk as that?"
5822No, is it?
5822Ruth,said he one day when he was getting to be quite himself,"I believe in it?"
5822Treat you how?
5822Uncle, you and Brother Balaam are bosom friends-- why do n''t you get his paper to persecute us, too?
5822Very well, I will do it-- but why not tell me how you imagine it is going to help you?
5822Vote for a fr-- for a measure which is generally believed to be at least questionable? 5822 Washington weather generally can not be very congenial to you?"
5822Well if he wants to make a great speech why does n''t he do it?
5822Well if it was only a joke, why did you make a serious matter of it? 5822 Well, suppose it were a fraud-- which I feel able to deny-- would it be the first one?"
5822Well, what WOULD have been the result?
5822Well, would you mind telling me your opinion of it?
5822Well?
5822What do people say?
5822What do they say?
5822What is that?
5822What is, dear?
5822Who is he? 5822 Why do you treat me so?"
5822Why, do you remember that yet, Miss Hawkins? 5822 Why, what is it, sis?
5822With you? 5822 You do n''t say so?
5822You know my bill-- the Knobs University bill?
5822; what would have been the result?"
5822A suggestion came into her mind presently and she said:"Ca n''t you fight against his great Pension bill and, bring him to terms?"
5822And a look of bitterness coming into her face-- does the fool think he can escape so?
5822And besides, if I had been inclined to forget, I-- did you not give me something by way of a remembrancer?"
5822And did you wake me sir?
5822And if I win the game, will it be worth its cost after all?
5822And what have rest and contentment to do with love?
5822And why did n''t he kill me?
5822And you think I will have it; George?
5822And you''ve been here a week, Grace, and do n''t know?
5822At breakfast she asked if any one had heard any unusual noise during the night?
5822But have you kept that all this time?"
5822But how is this going to benefit you, after I have managed it?
5822But is n''t there something else you could give me, too?"
5822But seriously, you do not forget that some of the best and purest men in Congress took that stock in that way?"
5822But what could I do?
5822But would one be in earnest about so farcical a thing?"
5822Come, now, does n''t it improve?"
5822Could he not go into some State where it would not take much time?
5822Could it be possible that he was seriously affected?
5822Did I say he?
5822Did he not belong to her by virtue of her overmastering passion?
5822Did this seem like a damnable plot to Laura against the life, maybe, of a sister, a woman like herself?
5822Did you see his wife?"
5822Do you recognize this?"
5822Do you suppose he was ever approached, on the subject?"
5822Do you think that color makes any difference, Mr. Hawkins?
5822Had he not confessed it himself?
5822Had she not a right to him?
5822Had there not always been some way out of such scrapes?
5822Have you any friend whom you would like to present with a salaried or unsalaried position in our institution?"
5822Have you nothing to say?"
5822Hawkins?"
5822Hawkins?"
5822Hawkins?"
5822He could deal with those millions virtuously, and withal with ability, too-- but of course you would rather he had a salaried position?"
5822How am I to move my crops?
5822How came you here?
5822How could the Colonel manage to free himself from his wife?
5822I have been married once-- is that nothing in my favor?"
5822I never wear an umbrella in the house-- did anybody''notice it''?
5822I say''Well?''
5822I thought you were--""You thought I was dead?
5822I was married, and--""And your wife still lives?"
5822I wonder if he hates me as I do him?"
5822If he deserved punishment, what more would you have?
5822Indeed?
5822Is it possible the town is saying all these things about me?
5822Is it possible, she was thinking, that this base wretch, after, all his promises, will take his wife and children and leave me?
5822Laura looked up quickly, as if about to return an indignant answer to such impertinence, but she only said,"Well, what of Col. Selby, sauce- box?"
5822M.?"
5822Mr. Trollop winced-- then he said with dignity:"Miss Hawkins is it possible that you were capable of such a thing as that?"
5822Open your ears; for which of you will stop, The vent of hearing when loud Rumor speaks?
5822Perhaps Miss Hawkins can?"
5822Selby?"
5822Selby?"
5822Shall we bury the hatchet and be good friends and respect each other''s little secrets, on condition that I vote Aye on the measure?"
5822Should we leave them ignorant?
5822Should we leave them without tools?
5822Sterling?"
5822Still, what is all this to me?
5822Tell me-- how did you get hold of that page of manuscript?
5822That gawky looking person, with Miss Hawkins?"
5822The law?
5822Two millions?
5822Was not her love for George Selby deeper than any other woman''s could be?
5822Was that what you wanted to see me about?"
5822Was there something good in him, after all, that had been touched?
5822Well?
5822What account should we render to Him of our stewardship?
5822What am I going to do to give her up?"
5822What can I do for you?"
5822What can I do?
5822What did he think the government would offer?
5822What did she care for talk?
5822What did they say as they sat there?
5822What do you propose to do about it?"
5822What do you propose?"
5822What else were they for?
5822What had come over this thrilling young lady- killer?
5822What nothings do people usually say in such circumstances, even if they are three- score and ten?
5822What of it?
5822What was all this for and what does it amount to after all?
5822What was he doing?
5822What would the law do but protect him and make me an outcast?
5822What- asleep?
5822Where did you get it?
5822Where was his coolness?
5822Who is he, Blanche?"
5822Why all these questions?
5822Why did n''t he send his wife home?
5822Why did you get the speech written for you, and then read it in the House without ever having it copied?"
5822Why had he taken no steps to free himself?
5822Would he smile as in the old days when she loved him so; or would he sneer as when she last saw him?
5822Would it be long?
5822Would you-- did you wish me to vote for it?
5822You are not ignorant of his feeling towards you?"
5822You are offended, though, to have me speak of it?"
5822You seem to go the furthest around to get at a thing-- but you are in earnest, are n''t you?"
5822You think I am as powerless as that day I fell dead at your feet?"
5822You think I will let you live with that woman?
5822You thought you were rid of me?
5822You would n''t deceive me, Harry?"
5822Your being with him so much is the town talk, that''s all?"
19272A what?
19272About how much?
19272And do you mean to tell me that all these farm- houses call themselves summer resorts?
19272And, Mr. Turner, what is pulp? 19272 Another idea?"
19272Are there many of them in this locality?
19272Are you agreeable to Princeman''s plan to pool all stock but Turner''s?
19272Are you going to subscribe rather heavily in the company, Stevens?
19272Are you going to vote your pulp stock with his?
19272Business?
19272But I thought, from something father once said, that you did not have so much money as that?
19272But truly, father, do n''t you think he''s too much concentrated on business? 19272 But where are you going?"
19272But will you take my note for it at six per cent.?
19272Ca n''t you stretch that to fifty?
19272Charming weather, is n''t it?
19272Common?
19272Could you get me a saddle- horse right away?
19272Did n''t she sometimes let out your secrets?
19272Did you see anything of Mr. Turner this morning?
19272Do you always get everything you want?
19272Do you believe in telepathy?
19272Do you bowl very much?
19272Do you fellows intend to let him secure control of this company?
19272Do you intend to buy any preferred?
19272Do you play base- ball?
19272Do you ride?
19272Do you ride?
19272Do you think fate is as much responsible for that as yourself?
19272Do you think so?
19272Does she know it yet?
19272Does your daughter play tennis much?
19272Fine day, is n''t it?
19272Fine sight, is n''t it?
19272Got a base- ball? 19272 Gug- gug- gug- glorious day, is n''t it?"
19272Have you a cigarette about you?
19272Have you definitely made up your mind, pop, to take stock in Mr. Turner''s company?
19272Have you?
19272Hollis Creek Inn?
19272How did you finally do it?
19272How did you propose to organize your company?
19272How long shall we be gone?
19272How many dances do I get?
19272How many shares of common stock does that give you in combination with your bonus?
19272How many shares of stock are you going to take in it? 19272 How much common do you expect to take out for your patents?"
19272How much do you offer?
19272How much what?
19272How much would?
19272How was that?
19272How was that?
19272I did n''t see, until I went into that meeting, why he was so crazy to have me buy enough stock to gain control-- What''s the matter?
19272If you carry through this Marsh Pulp Company to a successful termination, you will be fairly well fixed for a young man, wo n''t you?
19272Is Meadow Brook on the way to Hollis Creek?
19272Is Miss Stevens about?
19272Is n''t it a perfectly charming evening?
19272Is that his name?
19272Is this your first stay at Meadow Brook?
19272It is n''t fit for anything, is it?
19272It was silly of me to be snippy, was n''t it?
19272It will take a lot of money, wo n''t it, to build a hotel here?
19272It''s a really first- class business investment, is n''t it?
19272Just set down here in this easy chair, Mrs.-- What did you say your name is?
19272Me? 19272 Meaning just you?"
19272Men usually do, do n''t they?
19272Mr. Turner, would you mind sending some samples of your material to my factory with the necessary instructions?
19272No, I guess I would n''t,he gave up;"but you''re not going to object seriously, are you?"
19272No?
19272Oh,she said blankly,"then you would n''t actually build a hotel yourself?"
19272Pending that,suggested Mr. Westlake placidly, looking out over the brook,"why could n''t we organize a sort of tentative company?
19272Princeman tell you I was after it?
19272Queer chap, is n''t he?
19272Queer? 19272 Quite a long ways over there by the road, is n''t it?"
19272So you think you may eventually own some stock in the Marsh Pulp Company?
19272Son,he asked, leaning over toward the chauffeur,"are there any speed limit laws on these roads?"
19272Standin''or cut?
19272Suggest what? 19272 Sure; what is it?"
19272The first one?
19272These are samples made by yourselves from marsh products?
19272This Marsh Pulp Company,said Sam;"do you know anything about pulp and paper?"
19272Voting power in the common stock?
19272Was she sarcastic about it?
19272Was that safe?
19272We wo n''t argue that point any more just now; but will you invest fifty thousand?
19272We''ll be delighted to wait,asserted Miss Westlake eagerly, herself looking apprehensively down the driveway;"wo n''t we, boys?"
19272Well, does n''t the road down there, from hill to hill, dip about ten yards?
19272Well, postpone that for a few minutes, wo n''t you, Tilloughby, like a good fellow? 19272 Well, say standing?"
19272Westlake,interposed Billy''s father; and then, a trifle impatiently,"What do you want, Billy?"
19272What are you after now? 19272 What has happened to Sam Turner?"
19272What is it?
19272What is it?
19272What time do we start on our mad bowling career?
19272What time is it?
19272What was the first one, I wonder? 19272 What would anybody in New York want with this?"
19272What''s the joke?
19272What''s the matter, Jo?
19272What''s the swiftest conveyance these people keep?
19272What''s your rush?
19272What, more?
19272Where are you going?
19272Where do you suppose we could find old man Gifford?
19272Where shall we go?
19272Where''s the garage?
19272Which way is Sunset Rock?
19272Who''s to get it?
19272Why ca n''t you be ready at nine in place of ten, let me call for you at that time and drive over to Restview with me to meet Jack?
19272Why ca n''t you get in the trap and drive over to Hollis Creek with me? 19272 Why?"
19272Will you never get over that dyspepsia?
19272Wo n''t that be fun?
19272Worth every cent you paid us for it, was n''t it?
19272You do n''t happen to know the man''s name, do you?
19272You say you actually tried to-- to get in ahead of Mr. Turner in buying this lumber, knowing that he was going down there purposely for it?
19272You''d print the cover of it in blue and gold, I suppose, would n''t you?
19272You''ll excuse Mr. Turner a moment, wo n''t you, Billy?
19272You''ll stay to lunch with us, wo n''t you?
19272You''re particular about that, eh?
19272You''re rather close to Princeman in a business way, are n''t you?
19272Your father''s name is Theophilus Stevens, is n''t it?
19272An engagement at Hollis Creek at ten o''clock, eh?
19272And do they actually make paper out of it?"
19272And he had already subscribed enough stock to throw Sam control, eh?
19272And old Westlake knew it, eh?
19272And so you compose, too?"
19272And who were the heroes of the hour, as smilingly but modestly they strode from the diamond?
19272Are n''t you going to catch that afternoon train and go right up there?"
19272Are you going to take your brother along?"
19272At what figure do you propose offering the original stock?"
19272But did Sam Turner care that Princeman was the hero of the hour?
19272But do you know that in all those times since I left school I never took a lay- off until just this minute?
19272But how to secure it and still float the company promptly and advantageously?
19272But where have you been?"
19272But why?
19272Can you call a meeting as soon as we get there?"
19272Could n''t she understand what control of a million dollar organization meant?
19272Do n''t you suppose I''ll enjoy closing that Flatbush deal?"
19272Do n''t you think you''re going to fill your list?"
19272Do you bowl?"
19272Do you know Mr. Creamer of the Eureka Paper Mills?"
19272Do you object to fast driving, Miss Stevens?"
19272Do you see how close together these hills draw at their feet?
19272Do you suppose there is anything in telepathy?
19272Do you want to sell it?
19272Gifford?"
19272Got a lawyer over there?"
19272Had he the qualities which would go to make a successful man in any walk of life?
19272How did you ever find it?"
19272How much do you want?"
19272How much stock are you going to take in it?"
19272How much stock do you think of buying?"
19272How much?"
19272How to get control?
19272I never in all my life--""Why, Jo, what do you mean?
19272I want to get away to- night: Ca n''t we form that company to- day?
19272I''d take his word on any proposition; would n''t you?"
19272If Mr. Gifford had known of the new rates, Mr. Turner could not have bought those trees at the price he did, could he?"
19272Is n''t that jolly?"
19272Is n''t this the dearest place imaginable?"
19272More lumber?"
19272Mr. Princeman, do you know G. W. Creamer of the Eureka Paper Mills?"
19272Now, what have I said?"
19272One of those that you have just been playing?"
19272Pleasant weather, is n''t it?
19272Restview?"
19272So Miss Westlake thought a great deal of Sam, eh?
19272Turner?"
19272Turner?"
19272Was he not on vacation, and must he not enjoy himself?
19272We''ll have a set right after luncheon; shall we?"
19272What are the principal crops?"
19272What could she find to talk about with Billy Westlake?
19272What do you think of him?"
19272What do you want for your lumber contract?"
19272What is to prevent it?"
19272What should they talk about?
19272What time do we arrive at Meadow Brook?"
19272What was that last selection?"
19272What was this strange phenomenon, by which the mere presence of one particular person filled all the air with a tingling glow?
19272What''s it like?"
19272What''s on your mind?"
19272What''s the next game?"
19272What''s the trouble?"
19272Where is it to be held?"
19272Where now were Hollis and Princeman and Billy Westlake?
19272Which way are you bound?"
19272Why ca n''t I come over right after lunch?"
19272Why could n''t we at least canvass ourselves and see how much of Mr. Turner''s stock we would take up among us?"
19272Why not raise the road itself thirty feet, letting it be level and just as high as your dam?"
19272Why, how do you suppose your father became rich in the lumber trade if it was n''t through snapping up bargains every time he found one?"
19272Why, if the lake comes up that high it will go clear back around that turn in the valley, wo n''t it?"
19272Why?"
19272Will four do you?"
19272Will you go?"
19272With whom could he combine to obtain control?
19272Wo n''t you please run up and get them and let Mr. Turner sample them?"
19272Would Mr. Turner kindly excuse her?
19272Would he come over?
19272Would n''t you like a branch or two, Miss Stevens?"
19272You know where that little stream is between here and Meadow Brook?
19272You think I''m a good business man, do n''t you?"
37010Ai n''t that the limit?
37010And how much does it cost to make it?
37010And is this your daughter Minnie?
37010Anything else?
37010Are you an officer of the Universal Covered Tack Company?
37010Are you going to build that hotel, Colonel?
37010Been trying to sell one?
37010Boston squeezed dry?
37010But how about the insurance end of it?
37010But how do you clinch your rake- off?
37010But in chilly figures, discounting next year, how many?
37010But is this scheme on the level?
37010But what''s the joke, J. Rufus? 37010 But where do you get in?"
37010But where''s the fire?
37010But who loses this money, Jim?
37010But why should such a rich man go into a little business?
37010But you''re going to stay to dinner with us?
37010By the way, of course I''ll want to refer to you; how many addresses have you besides the Billion Strike? 37010 Ca n''t we buy him out?"
37010Can you get word to the others?
37010Could it possibly go lower than sixty- two?
37010Did I always have it?
37010Did I?
37010Did he give you any references?
37010Did they sting you?
37010Did you see that guy just now look around and give me the X- ray stare?
37010Do n''t you feel well? 37010 Do n''t you like your fifteen thousand dollars''worth of stock?"
37010Do n''t you like your fifty a week?
37010Do you know why? 37010 Do you want to sell your stock, Neil?"
37010Fade me, Joe?
37010Fine? 37010 For how long have you secured a lease?"
37010Giving pink teas? 37010 Go away from here: from the only place where we''ve ever had respect for ourselves and from others?"
37010Got a new gold- mining scheme again to put us all in the poorhouse?
37010Had your dinner?
37010Have you five hundred?
37010Have you the stock certificate with you?
37010Have you written to them?
37010He makes you look perfectly sober,he confessed;"but what are those papers on the table?"
37010Here you go out West and trim a bunch of come- ons for twenty- five thousand, and what do you do next? 37010 How about it?...
37010How about letting a stranger in?
37010How about the bank?
37010How are the cuffs? 37010 How are they treating you?
37010How are tricks?
37010How did the beans get spilled? 37010 How do you know you got out?"
37010How do you want to be skinned?
37010How else does a man get rich?
37010How is he on ritual work?
37010How is this town?
37010How is your Boston corporation coming on, anyhow?
37010How much do you want for your stock?
37010How much have you?
37010How much money can you be trusted with?
37010How much money have you?
37010How much of this spinach would you like to cover now?
37010How much will you take for your business?
37010How soon are you going back to Boston, Blackie?
37010How soon can you be ready to incorporate?
37010How will we ever keep up at that ridiculously low rate? 37010 How you making it, Tommy?"
37010Huh?
37010I believe that''s the right date; the twenty- fifth, is n''t it?
37010I guess we can work our way in, ca n''t we, Eddy?
37010I guess your old chum Eddy saw through the grindstone that time, eh?
37010I say, old man, we ca n''t keep''em clean, can we? 37010 I''d be able to pick her out any place from it; but what was her name before she shortened it?"
37010If you come into my place of business to get my store into the consolidation, I say, how do you close the deal? 37010 Is he in his office?"
37010Is it up?
37010Is n''t he the greatest ever?
37010Is that all he''s going to make-- just tacks?
37010Is that in addition to what we had when we came here?
37010Is that so? 37010 Is that so?"
37010Is the treasury full, or are the smart people in power?
37010Is this the residence of Colonel Wallingford?
37010It''s well made,he admitted;"but what''s the use?
37010Jim,she asked, one night,"how is your business going?"
37010Like the milk- stopper industry?
37010Look here, Wallingford; you''re hitting it up rather strong, ai n''t you? 37010 Looks like a good thing,"he commented;"but the cost?"
37010Not build the traction line? 37010 Nothing wrong in this, is there, Jim?"
37010Now may I have fifty?
37010Oh, is there?
37010Oh, will you?
37010Say, Clover, has he_ got_ any money?
37010Say, do you know what I found when I got here?
37010See this swell red carpet fastened down with rusty tacks? 37010 Sleep?
37010So much? 37010 So they got you at last, did they, Wallingford?"
37010So we''re all thieves together, eh?
37010Speculation?
37010Stock placed? 37010 Sure you have that bundle of American passports all right, Fanny?"
37010That looks like money, do n''t it?
37010That''ll cost me something, wo n''t it?
37010That''s a good play, too,agreed Meers;"but how about the details of it?
37010That''s the outside,commented Mr. Meers, nodding his head wisely;"but what''s the inside?
37010The Pneumatic Sales Recorder Company?
37010The difference in valuation?
37010Then you''re going into a-- a_ real_ business?
37010They will do it, eh, Blackie?
37010They''ll please Uncle, eh, Blackie?
37010Think of him?
37010Think wheat''s going higher?
37010To whom?
37010To- morrow?
37010Well, Jim,Mrs. Wallingford had asked with a trace of anxiety,"what are you doing this time?"
37010Well, Mr. Rook, what can I do for you?
37010Well, how goes it, Colonel?
37010Well, what brings you out so early, Eddy?
37010What are you going to do?
37010What consolidation?
37010What did you say?
37010What do I care?
37010What do you know about fraternal insurance?
37010What do you suppose his graft is?
37010What do you think of him, anyhow?
37010What does this mean?
37010What has turned you gray in a single month?
37010What have you been doing?
37010What have you done this time?
37010What is it that is past due?
37010What is it?
37010What is the matter?
37010What is the use?
37010What is your membership?
37010What note?
37010What sort of a bar outfit have you?
37010What turned up?
37010What will we be like when we are old?
37010What will you do if the golden spike is never pounded in?
37010What with? 37010 What''s cash wheat worth to- day?"
37010What''s got your nerve all of a sudden?
37010What''s the charge?
37010What''s the difference?
37010What''s the hurry, Blackie?
37010What''s the latest about wheat?
37010What''s the matter with the rate?
37010What''s the matter with you?
37010What''s the matter, Jim?
37010What''s the matter?
37010What''s the matter?
37010What''s the use?
37010What''s your first name?
37010What, for instance, are you going to do with that thousand dollars you''re taking back home?
37010What?
37010When is this sale?
37010When will he be back?
37010When, then, do we form the partnership?
37010When?
37010Where are you going?
37010Where are you going?
37010Where is Wallingford?
37010Where is he?
37010Where is your father?
37010Which of these buttons calls one of the girls?
37010Which would you rather have?
37010Who are the Rubes outside?
37010Who are the people?
37010Who composes your company?
37010Who does Mr. Clover do?
37010Who is this?
37010Who said I had money?
37010Who told you?
37010Who''s talking about insurance?
37010Who''s that clattering down the street?
37010Whose patent?
37010Why ca n''t we do just as well or better by presenting the thing squarely? 37010 Why did n''t I?
37010Why did n''t you form this new company in the first place, then?
37010Why did n''t you tell me he was borrowing money of you?
37010Why did you go to them? 37010 Why not?
37010Why should n''t I?
37010Why use our own money? 37010 Will a ten- dollar bill help hurry matters any?"
37010Will you put it up?
37010Wo n''t your ring and scarf pin do?
37010Would you, Vogel?
37010Yes?
37010You did n''t really think I''d pay it, did you? 37010 You do n''t mean to say you''re broke, too?"
37010You do n''t remember of the kid- glove miner taking anybody''s money away, do you?
37010You have not?
37010You must have had a lively get- away, to judge from the marks the mill left on you; but why this trip across the pond? 37010 You other fellows want in on this?"
37010You remember how they turned me down a long time ago when I tried to sell them a patent?
37010You see me have money every day, do n''t you? 37010 You thought this meeting was a mere jolly for our members, did n''t you?
37010You would n''t honestly come back to this graveyard, would you?
37010You''re a regular insister, ai n''t you?
37010You''re a wonder, Jim,said Mr. Daw to his friend when they were alone for a few minutes;"but where are you going to get that two thousand?"
37010You''re not going?
37010_ Can_ limburger smell worse?
37010_ Is_ a dollar honest?
37010_ Is_ there that much money in the world?
37010& E. want?
37010A nice little game you played on me up in Battlesburg, was n''t it?
37010A nightcap with your dear old pal?"
37010A note?"
37010About how much do you think the property has increased?"
37010And have you noticed another thing?
37010And how had competition been throttled?
37010And how was this done?
37010Are n''t things going right?"
37010Are they after you?"
37010Attached, old man?
37010But how are you going to work this consolidation, anyhow?"
37010But how did it get away?
37010But how did you come to have to pay eight thousand for the patents?"
37010But the boobs who buy from them----""Ai n''t it funny?"
37010But what do you think of this chance of mine?
37010But what is a danger past when a myriad lie before, and what are dangers ahead when a myriad have been passed safely by?
37010But why have you worked so hard to make them speculate?"
37010But, on the level, what do you expect to do here?"
37010Can you keep a secret?"
37010Could it be possible that she did not understand?
37010Could n''t you hear it bleat?"
37010Daw?"
37010Did he intend to build the new opera house, or would he care to dispose of the property he had secured with that end in view?
37010Did it save me my savings?
37010Did n''t he act it?
37010Did n''t he live it?
37010Did n''t he look the part?
37010Did you arrange to pay for the patents?"
37010Do I get two hundred and fifty of it?"
37010Do n''t you think it''s a good thing?"
37010Do you know of a good lawyer?"
37010Do you know what he wanted me to do?
37010Do you suppose Rockefeller_ saved_ his first million?
37010Do you want this note or not?"
37010Does he want any money?"
37010For how much?"
37010Getting full credit for your diamonds and those Paris dresses and hats?"
37010Got that?"
37010Have you a thousand?"
37010He might be a"smooth article,"but was not one Clover also"smooth"?
37010Honest, J. Rufus, would n''t it strike you that Lamb was a good name?
37010How about it?
37010How did you come out in the East?"
37010How do I know?
37010How do you like this place?"
37010How do you organize?"
37010How had you thought of investing this neat little sum?"
37010How is it possible?"
37010How much can you spare?"
37010How much you got, Len?"
37010How much?...
37010How would you like that, Miss Bishop?"
37010How''s that?"
37010I guess that''s what you wanted, is n''t it?"
37010I guess you noticed that if we want to cut a melon or open a keg of nails over in my place we do n''t go down in the cellar?"
37010I see your luck, but where do the surrounding farmers get in?
37010I suppose I sign an agreement of some sort, do n''t I?"
37010I''d be a rank sucker----Hello, who''s this?"
37010If we do that, what is to prevent a good dividend to our stockholders?"
37010In Oklahoma a small farmer drove up to the elevator and asked:"What''s wheat worth to- day?"
37010In the meantime, when am I to have a chance to congratulate the lady?"
37010Is Mr. Alexander in the city?"
37010Is he a sharper, too?"
37010Is there anybody else to cut in on this?"
37010It''s a stiff rate, is n''t it?"
37010Jensen?"
37010Just put this to my credit, will you?"
37010Lamb, Jasper, Lewis, Nolting, Ella; what were all these people to them?
37010Lamb?"
37010Lamb?"
37010Looks good, do n''t it?"
37010Make all this happiness I''ve had a theft that is worse than stealing money?
37010Me?
37010Mr. Hines, Mr. Evans, Mr. Whetmore, Mr. Granice, and the others-- to whom do they sell after they have bought your wheat?"
37010Mrs. Daw had only the day before signed a contract with a leading dramatic producer, but what was a contract?
37010Nicely?"
37010Nickel?"
37010One for about fifteen thousand?"
37010Or where do you get in on the surrounding farmers?
37010Play cards?"
37010Rufus?"
37010Say, J. Rufus, what''ll you give me to transfer them over to you?"
37010Say, do I look like a come- on?"
37010Schmitt?"
37010See that mug over there on the corner with his back to us?
37010Shall we go, Vi?"
37010Shall we quit satisfied, or shoot it off to see who owns the best rabbit''s foot?"
37010She would turn up again in her own good time, but what could she do?
37010So I was to be the mark, eh?
37010Suppose I show you how to have Mrs. Bishop hand you back that thousand with sobs of gratitude?
37010Suppose we go back to Battlesburg, clear off that mortgage on your house and settle down there?"
37010That will be better, do n''t you think?"
37010Then why had n''t they been attached to that fast train?
37010There''s nothing you want, is there?"
37010This gifted amateur''s going out to- night?
37010Tried to double cross me, did n''t you?"
37010Wallingford?"
37010Wallingford?"
37010Wallingford?"
37010Well, Lamb reflected, what was there to do?
37010Were they not partners?
37010What are you going to do with the farm, anyhow?"
37010What are your qualifications?"
37010What did it matter whether he spent his money a trifle more or less quickly?
37010What do I get for letting you in?"
37010What if the wonderful influence that was dawning upon their lives should make a permanent change in him?
37010What shall we do with the time?
37010What size shirt do you wear?"
37010What were any living creatures except a part of the always moving panorama which composed the background of their lives?
37010What will you give me for one side of Main Street?"
37010What''s the matter?"
37010What?
37010What?"
37010When he had gone, Carl Klug asked:"Well, what do you think of him?"
37010Where is he?"
37010Which will you have, Mr. Wallingford, breakfast or lunch?"
37010Who rises in his might and comes to their rescue?
37010Who''s the real Napoleon of Finance?
37010Who, I ask?
37010Why did n''t you go out and sell the stock yourself?"
37010Why did n''t you sell them at least part from our extra treasury stock?
37010Why did n''t you tell me that he was borrowing money of you?"
37010Why, J. Rufus, do you know we''re all that''s left of the old bunch?
37010Will that be early enough?"
37010Will that let you get the price without dropping it off ten or fifteen cents?"
37010Would the gentleman give his name?
37010Would you, Carl?"
37010You do n''t expect to perfect a machine without experimenting, do you?
37010You do n''t suppose we are going to pay cash for anything, do you?"
37010You have four or five friends who could put up five thousand apiece, have n''t you?"
37010You hear me?"
37010You know what he said?
37010You know what this little bundle of comfort means?
37010You know you jumped bail in this town, do n''t you?"
37010You remember that little old hundred, do n''t you?
37010You see that automobile?
37010You see those rusty heads?
37010You would n''t expect me to fasten myself down to the grease- covered details of an actual manufacturing business, would you?"
37010_ Why_ had he been fool enough to think he could swear a lot of spineless jelly fish to secrecy?
37010_ Why_ had he forgotten that check?
37010_ Why_ had n''t he been content with half?
27533A drover''s daughter?
27533A hundred pounds down?
27533A name?
27533Ah, tell me that, what business has he here? 27533 And do you mean to say,"said Robinson--"do you mean to say that that is now your wish?"
27533And if you were both blew up, what''d I do then?
27533And is it the fact that by the deed of partnership drawn up between us, I am entitled to receive one quarter of the proceeds of the business?
27533And is my Maryanne mercenary?
27533And she--?
27533And that''s all the answer I''m to get? 27533 And the money''s all gone?"
27533And they are to be married?
27533And was n''t it for sheep?
27533And what am I to do when you wo n''t have neither a bit nor a cup? 27533 And what better advertisement could you have wished?"
27533And what did you do?
27533And what if I do n''t?
27533And what is it you want, Maryanne?
27533And what is my share for the year now over?
27533And what shall we really say to them on Monday?
27533And what the better are you for that? 27533 And what will they do with us?"
27533And what will you do, George?
27533And when you did make it,continued Maryanne,"why did n''t you see it out?"
27533And when you have n''t a morsel, how will it be then? 27533 And where''s the money to come from, if not out of the house?
27533And who brought that crowd to the house?
27533And who has he got to blame but his own want of spirit?
27533And why do you not like it?
27533And why not, Polly?
27533And why should others be more simple than you? 27533 And will it not please her to become mine?"
27533And will we be took to prison?
27533And wo n''t there be any more about it?
27533And would you have had me become a thief?
27533And you would have me put up''Pawkins of Staleybridge,''and thus render the firm liable to an indictment for libel? 27533 And you''ve been with Brisket?"
27533Are you going to rob the shop?
27533Are you going to walk out, or am I going to carry you?
27533Are you his promised wife?
27533Assume a virtue if you have it not?
27533Brisket will not be there?
27533But if I have n''t got it, my dear?
27533But if you ran aground in the mud, where are you then? 27533 But now;--why should I suffer now?"
27533But we shall see each other occasionally,--as friends?
27533But what I want to know is this,continued the maiden;"how is it to be about that five hundred pounds which my mother left me?"
27533But what good does it do? 27533 But what reasons?"
27533But what shall I say to the man?
27533But when?
27533But you would n''t call him a-- a--"A what? 27533 But, George--""Is there no honesty left in the world, Mr. Brown?
27533But--"Is it not simple? 27533 Ca n''t we do anything to''em, George?
27533Can they?
27533Could n''t we change it to Tomkins of Leeds next week?
27533Could n''t we have a shirt of our own?
27533Could n''t you say that they are such as are worn by the Princess Alice?
27533Did mortial man iver see the like of that? 27533 Did n''t he though?
27533Did you ever believe an advertisement?
27533Did you now?
27533Do I meddle with you in the shop?
27533Do I remember? 27533 Do I wish her to wait?
27533Do you know what Barlywig has spent on his physic; Barlywig''s Medean Potion? 27533 Do you know what Katakairion means?"
27533Do you know, Poppins, what I did twice,--ay, thrice,--in those dark days?
27533Do you think he does n''t understand how to do all that better than you can tell him? 27533 Does it fail to be attractive?
27533Does it want vigour?
27533Et tu, Brute?
27533Et tu, Brute?
27533Father,she said, standing upright in the middle of the room before them,"I have come to know what it is that you mean to do?"
27533George Robinson is here; who wants his name?--and why?
27533Has not she renounced me?
27533Has-- my partner-- promised-- her hand to you?
27533Have not I sown, and are not you to reap? 27533 Have you?"
27533I have n''t got the money; have I, George?
27533I say, young man,said Brisket,"do you know who that young woman is?"
27533I suppose you''ve heard of him, George?
27533If she be not fair for me,he sang to himself,"what care I how fair she be?"
27533If she''s bought the thingumbob at your own price, why do n''t you give it her?
27533If the hats sold from the different marts be not good enough, with whom does the fault rest? 27533 If we could, what good would that do us?"
27533Is it rob?
27533Is it the police? 27533 Is she gone, George?"
27533Madam, what can I do for you?
27533Maryanne,he began again,"ca n''t you find out about this Johnson?"
27533Maryanne,said Robinson,"why is that man here?"
27533Maryanne,said he,"will you renounce William Brisket?"
27533Miss O''Brien, where is the salmon- coloured sarsenet? 27533 Mr. Brown, why is he here?
27533Mr. Robinson, may I give you a little of this cheese?
27533Must I still be as the bee, whose honey is robbed from him as soon as made? 27533 My dearest daughter, what was it?"
27533My dears, wo n''t Mr. Brisket have his dish of tea now it''s here?
27533Never again to clasp her hand in mine?
27533Never again to speak to her?
27533No, indeed; why should you?
27533Oh, George, are you going so?
27533Oh, George; so you are there, are you? 27533 Oh, Mr. Brown, is this prudent?"
27533Oh, we do n''t want any nonsense,said Maryanne;"do we, George?"
27533Perhaps you can swim?
27533Perhaps you will tell me that that is not true?
27533Poppins, tell me this; was Hamlet mad, or did he feign so?
27533Shall I never enjoy the fruits of my own labour?
27533Shall I say''Maryanne?''
27533Shall we open, George?
27533That means sowing, do n''t it?
27533That''s all very well, and I hope you do; but why did you make a row with that man the other night?
27533That''s not the way we manage these things now- a- days, is it, Polly?
27533That''s the one I mane, with the price;--how much was it, Miss Biles?
27533Then he had it after all?
27533There are three questions,said Robinson,"to be asked and answered.--Had Mrs. B. the power to make a will?
27533Think you that love such as mine is no torment? 27533 This next first of June as ever is?
27533To do, my dear?
27533To what purpose? 27533 Well, miss,"said Sarah Jane;"and is n''t he a partner?"
27533What am I to do with him?
27533What business has he there? 27533 What chance can he have?"
27533What does it mean?
27533What does the man mean by hauling a female about that way?
27533What does''impetuous''mean? 27533 What doing?"
27533What matters it?
27533What then?
27533What''s the good of putting down 5,000 Kolinski and Minx Boas in the bill, if we do n''t possess one in the shop?
27533What''s the use of shilly- shallying?
27533What''s''argentine?'' 27533 What; when Brisket was after her?"
27533What; you will never be a bride?
27533When he is able to move, and the house is taken away from us, what am I to do with him? 27533 Where you are, George?"
27533Wherefore all this noise?
27533Which of them?
27533Who cares? 27533 Who has filled the shop below with such a throng of anxious purchasers?"
27533Who is it wants the name of George Robinson?
27533Who wants you to go on? 27533 Who''ll care for your card?"
27533Who''s to make pa go when once we begin in that way? 27533 Why did n''t you give that man the money when you had it?
27533Why do n''t you produce something, so as to make the world richer?
27533Why is it,he said as he looked down into the turbid stream--"why is it that bloodshed, physical strife, and brute power are dear to them all?
27533Why not, my own one?
27533Why not?
27533Will it ever be said of me when my history is told that I spent forty thousand pounds a- year in advertising a single article? 27533 Will you give Brisket those five hundred pounds?"
27533Will you take a chair?
27533Will you take a cup of tea, George?
27533Would you esteem me the more because I had deceived my partners? 27533 Would you have me betray my trust?"
27533Would you hint to me that she is false?
27533Would you, now? 27533 Would''st thou drink up Esil?
27533Yes, Mr. Brown; you may repaint iron and wood; but who can restore the faded colours to broken hopes and a bankrupt ambition? 27533 Yes; why not?
27533You mean the advertising people?
27533You would be more or less than mortal did you not? 27533 A coward, is it? 27533 After all, is n''t it better so, than you should find her out when it was too late? 27533 Ah, tell me that; what business has he there?
27533Ai n''t you, Em''ly?"
27533Am I not to look to myself?
27533Am I to look after the world?
27533Am I to protect the man who demands from me a cheap hat?
27533And if it be so, why have you come hither to torment me?"
27533And if she do n''t get the value for her money, whose fault is that?
27533And if so, what was the will she made?"
27533And if the shawl is not exactly a real diagonal Osnabruck cashmere, what harm is done as long as the lady gets the value for her money?
27533And is not the word"respectable"the highest term of praise which can be applied to the British tradesman?
27533And might it not be well for her to forget that other Samson, and once more to trust herself to her father''s partners?
27533And now you wo n''t quarrel with me, will you, though I have a little thrown you over like?"
27533And she had answered him with terrible harshness,"But what am I to do when you have no longer a morsel to share with me?
27533And then mother had n''t the money when the pinch came, and, of course, Brisket was n''t going to be put upon;--why should he?
27533And then what could you expect of Brisket?
27533And what am I to do with him?"
27533And what do you think, Em''ly?
27533And what''s the use of capital unless we buy a stock?"
27533And when he came himself, ten minutes afterwards, what was I to say to him?
27533And when she tries to buy for 4_l._, a shawl which she thinks is worth about 8_l._, is n''t she dealing on the same principles herself?
27533And where am I to go then?
27533And where should Jones have gotten it?"
27533And where''s the hundred pounds of ready to come from?"
27533And who could n''t have done it if he had n''t been here?"
27533And who was it interfered?
27533Are not Pawkins and Johnson all the same to the public?"
27533Arn''t they all helping themselves hand over hand, except you?
27533Ay, Maryanne; when shall I forget it?
27533Brisket?"
27533Brisket?"
27533But as it was, what business had he there?
27533But for that, who would these fardels bear?"
27533But for what purpose had she so eagerly demanded it?
27533But how will you begin unless you attract your customers?"
27533But how would it be with him when that sale should be over, and when he would be called upon to leave the premises and walk forth into the street?
27533But in what words would it be right to depict the conduct of Jones?
27533But then how did these great men begin?
27533But then how was he to begin?
27533But to what had such triumphs led him?
27533But what artist can ever repaint our aspirations?
27533But what he said was this--''If you''re so fond of the fellow, why do n''t you have him?''"
27533But what recks it?
27533But what says the poet,--he whom we teach our children to read?
27533But who can say what must become of us?
27533But why?
27533But with what are you to polish it?
27533But with whom has the fault been?
27533But you ca n''t wonder at me, George; can you?
27533Ca n''t we make''em bankrupts?"
27533Come, Brisket, will you jump with me into yonder river?
27533Could Poppins have seen this, while he was blind?
27533Could not a man be sufficient for himself alone?
27533Did I not with my own hand in this room renounce you?"
27533Did n''t I, Em''ly?"
27533Did not the old man promise that she should be mine?
27533Did the fair girl choose to give her admirer one chance, or was it that she was careful not to crush her starch by too rapid an entry?
27533Do n''t you see that she''s not going to have him?"
27533Does n''t the word speak for itself?
27533From whence are to come those five hundred pounds without which William Brisket will not allow your daughter to warm herself at his hearthstone?"
27533Had four thousand pounds gone, and was there no profit?
27533Had he advertised?
27533Had he not one bride in commerce, a bride that would never scold; and would it not be well for him to trust his happiness to her alone?
27533Had n''t I, now?"
27533Have I done this for her,--the false one?
27533Have you paid the money down, dear?"
27533He next declares that I ca n''t write English, and that the book must be corrected, and put out by an editor?
27533He still finds that his sale is not rapid; and with a view of increasing it, what shall he do?
27533How can a man withstand the assault of a bull?
27533How did Barlywig begin such an outlay as that?
27533How had he been able to preserve this sum from the young woman''s hands, pressed as he had been by her and by Brisket?
27533How is everything going on at the Hall of Harmony?"
27533How will any lady hereafter forgive herself, who shall fail to profit by such an opportunity as this?
27533How would men treat him when he should no longer be the same Robinson?
27533I did bring four thousand pounds into it; did n''t I?"
27533I suppose you''re so bad you ca n''t eat a bit of nothing?"
27533If a tradesman can induce a lady to buy a diagonal Osnabruck cashmere shawl by telling her that he has 1,200 of them, who is injured?
27533If it were as true as heaven, would any one believe it?
27533If so, did she make a will?
27533In the first place, did you ever see an advertisement that contained the truth?
27533Is Barkis willing?"
27533Is Hamlet true?"
27533Is it commonplace?"
27533Is it not with the customers who purchase them?
27533Is it rob to me?
27533Is it so?
27533Is it the fact that I am the junior partner in the house of Brown, Jones, and Robinson?"
27533Is n''t it a fair stand- up fight?
27533Is not that a matter which ought to fill one with melancholy?
27533Is not the passion for cheap purchases altogether a female mania?
27533Is not the world a collection of individuals, all of whom are doing so?
27533Is that man to be your husband?
27533It is very good while it lasts, but what is to come after it?
27533It will come to pieces when worn and disgrace you among your female acquaintances by becoming dinged and bulged?''
27533Jones?"
27533Looking at it all through, George, I have been treated hard;--haven''t I, now?"
27533Maryanne''s principles is good, and that''s everything;--ain''t it?"
27533Maryanne, when shall be our wedding day?"
27533Must not credit be respectable?
27533My heart was high on other matters, and why should I have sacrificed myself?
27533Of what use is all this about adulteration?
27533Or for her--?
27533Or had he contented himself simply with standing behind his counter till customers should come to him?
27533Poppins was wounded sorely about the head and stomach, and of what nature was the balm which his wife administered?
27533Robinson?"
27533Robinson?"
27533Robinson?"
27533Shall I not take the goods the gods provide me?"
27533Shall I say, also, of every Father?
27533Shall he make his felt hats better, or shall he make his wooden hat bigger?
27533Shall the corn itself never be my own?"
27533She assumes a virtue, though she has it not; and who will say she is not right?
27533She shall be mine, and in order that she may be mine, I must request to know what is accurately the state of our account?"
27533Should I do him good?
27533Should I have gained anything had I allowed that huge monster to hammer at me?"
27533Should not one''s own flesh,--the bone of one''s bone,--bind up one''s bruises, pouring in balm with a gentle hand?
27533That was uncommon civil, was n''t it?
27533That''s all done and over now;--isn''t it?"
27533The books had nominally been kept by himself; but who can keep the books of a concern, if he be left in ignorance as to the outgoings and incomings?
27533The first words were everything, and what should be the first words?
27533The fox had made good his prey, and who could say where it was hidden?
27533The long and short of it is this; is Barkis willing?
27533The supply on hand is immense, but as a sale of unprecedented rapidity is anticipated, may I respectfully solicit your early orders?
27533Then wherewith shall we polish credit?
27533They ought; ought n''t they?
27533They''re always pecking at you; and a fellow feels that if he''s in for it, what''s the good of his fighting it out?"
27533Think you that I have no heart, no feeling; that this passion which tears me in pieces can exist without throwing a cloud upon my life?
27533To what purpose?"
27533Was a man bound to produce true shirts for the world''s benefit even though he should make no money by so doing;--either true shirts or none at all?
27533Was he to put down such numbers as those in his sacrificial catalogue?
27533Was he wise in this that he was doing?
27533Was it accident, or was it not?
27533Was it ever supposed that any man believed an advertisement?
27533Was it not the climax of all his glories, and the sweetest drop which Fortune poured into his cup?
27533Was there aught of pleasantness in that grinding tongue of his friend''s wife?
27533We all must live, you know, but then it''s only hand to mouth; is it?"
27533We ca n''t both marry her; can we?"
27533What am I to do at all, and my things all desthroyed?
27533What could a poor girl like me have done to satisfy you?"
27533What could he do with a poor gross of hose, numbered 7 to 10?
27533What does he care for me?"
27533What else have I?"
27533What had John Gilpin done that had made him a citizen of renown?
27533What had she done to deserve such degradation and misfortune?
27533What has the world to offer equal to the joy of gratified love?
27533What idea can, in its own nature, be more harrowing to the soul than that of a TREMENDOUS SACRIFICE?
27533What is Brisket to me, or what is your daughter?
27533What is anything?"
27533What is the pageantry to me?
27533What says the stern moralist to his wicked mother in the play?
27533What triumph is there so triumphant as that achieved by valour over beauty?
27533What was I to do then?
27533What was Robinson to do?
27533What was Robinson to do?
27533What was Robinson to say?
27533What was it they were saying to him?
27533What was she that she should talk to him about spirit?
27533What was there to enjoy in the fate of Poppins, and what in the proposed happiness of Brisket?
27533What will the Geese do if you''re not there?"
27533What''s a man worth if he wo n''t stand up for his young woman?
27533What''s the good of hoping?
27533What''s the meaning of partnership, if nobody''s to know where the money goes to?"
27533What''s the use of all them lawyers?"
27533What''s the use of windows if we have n''t anything to dress them?
27533What''s the use?"
27533When are they to be married, Miss Twizzle?"
27533When you are ruined, or dead, where must I then look for support and shelter?"
27533Where am I to get my things?
27533Where has the money gone to?
27533Who but a harpy would have alluded to the comforts of a rival''s domestic establishment at such a moment as that?
27533Who can make a widow understand that she should not communicate with her boy in the colonies under the dishonest cover of a newspaper?
27533Who can restrain thee and forbid thy further progress?
27533Who cares about your way?"
27533Who did it all?
27533Who do you think there is here, Bill?"
27533Why are you here?"
27533Why do you allow her to trouble you?"
27533Why is it that commercial honesty has so seldom charms for women?
27533Why is your daughter''s former lover here on the eve of her marriage with me?"
27533Why should I stay?
27533Why should I?
27533Why should his tailor send him the book of B., J., and R.?
27533Why should not he also have his statue?
27533Why was it, that at this eventful period of Robinson''s existence Mrs. Poppins should have turned against him?
27533Will you give me your word, as a man, never to have nothing more to say to Maryanne Brown?"
27533Would I not stand with her at the altar to- morrow, though my last half- crown should go to the greedy priest who joined us?
27533Would''st thou eat a crocodile?"
27533Yes; and where might she not be with Mrs. Poppins?
27533You have been working hard and living poor these two years back, and what better are you?
27533You never get near the till, do you?"
27533You remember when that row was, and you were so nigh choking him?"
27533are you George Robinson?
27533but what effect would arise now- a- days from advertising a sale under such a heading?
27533he repeated to himself;"or shall I say a Glorious Fact?
27533or what with a score or two of middling kids?
27533said Mr. Brown;"it''s 81, Bishopsgate Street; ai n''t it?
27533said he, putting out his hand;"or is it to be''Miss Brown?''"
27533to the bridge?
27533was it within the nature of things that his daughters should be kind?
27533what''s that between friends?
26485About the dimensions of the building, Ferris, you might possibly be mistaken, might you not?
26485About what do you say, now, that my services would be worth?
26485And Nick, where''s yours?
26485And build it full of these pale yellow shacks that the honest working slob buys with seventeen years of his wages, and then loses the shack?
26485And how about the Ebony Jewel Coal Company?
26485And how much more could you raise on my property?
26485And if they should happen to flicker some what are you going to do about it?
26485And now what are you going to do?
26485And now what are you going to do?
26485And this is your very best offer?
26485And what are the politics of the employees?
26485And what would be the return?
26485And who might you be?
26485And you''re not angry?
26485Applerod,said Johnson, glancing at the note and looking up with sudden fire,"does this mean that you are no longer even partially my employer?"
26485Are they men you can depend upon not to sell out to Stone?
26485Are you still dreaming about the possibilities of that old swamp?
26485Are you the trustee?
26485Ben,he asked,"do you know anything about Mr. Adam Winthrop''s political aspirations?"
26485Ben,he asked,"what is the connection between the First National and the Second Market Banks and Sam Stone?"
26485Biff who?
26485Bobby,she wanted to know,"has the city decided to cut down expenses on the waterworks, or have the plans been changed for any reason?"
26485But do n''t I on this place?
26485But honestly, Biff, did you ever see me go into a game where I was a loser in the end?
26485But how could they?
26485But if he is,protested Agnes,"what can you do about it?"
26485But if it is all lost,protested Johnson, looking again at the note and pausing in the making out of the check,"how do you come to get this?"
26485But just now,evaded Bobby,"whom did you say I should see about this consolidation?"
26485But say, he uses that cleaver again in the show?
26485But what brings you into the-- the busy marts of trade so early in the morning?
26485But what do you think of it?
26485But who has it?
26485By the way, have you investigated the cause of those accidents very thoroughly? 26485 By the way,"he added,"how soon will you need me again?"
26485By the way,he suddenly added,"has Silas Trimmer anything whatever to do with this proposition?"
26485Cash? 26485 Chalmers,"he demanded,"why must the Consolidated Illuminating and Power Company purchase city bonds?"
26485Coming back?
26485Daly,asked Bobby sharply, breaking in upon Ripley''s tirade,"are you competent to run this plant?"
26485Did the board of directors elect you to any salaried office?
26485Did you find them? 26485 Did you see me do it?"
26485Did you tell her I was at home?
26485Dill,drawled Brown, with a twinkle in his eye,"how much money have you?"
26485Do any other banks enjoy this patronage?
26485Do n''t you know,he demanded,"that there is nobody who keeps even his social engagements like a business man?"
26485Do n''t you remember?
26485Do n''t you see that Agnes is merely jealous?
26485Do n''t you think it rather a waste of money, Mr. Burnit? 26485 Do n''t you think you ought to get busy?"
26485Do you mean to say you''re going to trust the whole field conduct of this campaign to that chap?
26485Do you mind wiring yourself?
26485Do you remember who else bid on the contract?
26485Do you remember, Bobby, what Commodore Vanderbilt said about the public?
26485Do you suppose we can hold it?
26485Do you think you can trust yourself with all that money?
26485Do you think your father would accept this proposition?
26485Do you_ expect_ to see Young Fitz?
26485Everything paid?
26485For what?
26485Get her loosened up someway, ca n''t you?
26485Getting your name in the paper, ai n''t you, along with the fake heavyweights and the divorces?
26485Got a grouch again?
26485Had n''t we better add another foot to this wall?
26485Has he been here? 26485 Have you brought along the contract?"
26485Have you decided to open the Chicago branch, sir?
26485Have you seen this?
26485He did,_ did_ he?
26485He let the business go rather by its own weight, did n''t he?
26485How about the springs?
26485How are you going to divorce yourself from the rest of it, Bobby?
26485How could you?
26485How did all these people find out that I have two hundred and fifty thousand dollars to invest?
26485How do you feel now about your policy?
26485How do you find out so much, Biff?
26485How do you know?
26485How does this hit you?
26485How is it possible?
26485How much capital would be needed?
26485How much does a scoop amount to?
26485How much money would it take?
26485How much?
26485How should I know?
26485How soon may I see you about it?
26485How''s that?
26485How''s the Commercial Board of Strategy coming on?
26485How''s the circulation of the_ Bulletin_?
26485How?
26485I came around to see you--"Who''s running the show?
26485I guess you''re right about that,admitted Bobby;"but if you''d only married me---- Honest, Agnes, when are you going to?"
26485I have never failed you when you needed me, have I? 26485 I have no part, then, in the active management?"
26485I suppose that costume is due to distinctly feminine influence, eh, Biff?
26485I suppose you carry a gun, do n''t you?
26485I understand you have been trying to borrow some money, Burnit?
26485I--"Have they got their props and scenery?
26485If I do,Bobby wanted to know,"will you marry me?"
26485If there were, it would be my affair entirely, would n''t it?
26485If you would order a mere-- a mere acquaintance around so peremptorily, what would you do if you were married?
26485In how long?
26485Indeed?
26485Is it important?
26485Is that all?
26485Is that figure the best you will do?
26485Is that it?
26485Is there a chance that you will ever get it back?
26485Is this Stone''s money?
26485Jimmy, how would you like to be chief construction engineer of the new waterworks?
26485Jolter,he directed crisply, turning again to the''phone,"kindly step into my office, will you?"
26485Me?
26485Mr. Burnit, how much political influence do you think you could swing?
26485Mr. Johnson,said he,"will you kindly send out and get two dozen pink carnations for my room?"
26485Mr. Stone,inquired Bobby,"how does it come that the Brightlight Electric Company was not offered a chance to come into this new consolidation?"
26485My interest?
26485New office fitted up yet, Johnson?
26485No?
26485No?
26485Not applying for it?
26485Now what do you think of this?
26485Oh, I quite approve of it, now that I see your plan,she agreed;"but could it be made to pay?"
26485Oh, come on een,she gaily invited;"we are all ze good friends;_ oui_?"
26485Oh, will I?
26485On the level, Bobby, did they hook you up on this electric deal?
26485On what terms?
26485On-- what-- terms-- will the Consolidated now absorb the Brightlight?
26485Right away? 26485 Right,"agreed Jolter;"but how?
26485Ring a bell when it starts, will you, Con?
26485Say, tell me, did you ever earn a pull with this bunch?
26485See it?
26485So soon?
26485So soon?
26485Suppose it should rain again?
26485Supposed to be anti- Stone, has n''t it been?
26485Swamp?
26485The thing''s crooked, is n''t it?
26485Then you wo n''t hold good to your offer?
26485Then you''re looking for trouble and you must have it, eh?
26485Through Stone?
26485To whom?
26485To you?
26485Uncle Dan, how much money of mine have you in charge just now?
26485Very well,said Bobby, quite elated that he was carrying the thing off with an air and a tone so crisp;"just leave it to me, will you?"
26485Waterworks engineer''s office?
26485We want me to make some money, do n''t we? 26485 We''ve definitely resolved now to wait until you have either accomplished what you set out to do, or completely failed, have n''t we?"
26485Well, Johnson, what do you think of my first issue of the_ Bulletin_?
26485Well, Johnson,said he, ignoring the incident as closed,"what can I do for you to- day?"
26485Well, then, why should they hand you anything but the buzzer? 26485 What am I to do with it?
26485What are they doing?
26485What are you doing here, Biff? 26485 What bonds?"
26485What brings you at this unearthly hour?
26485What did father say about this?
26485What did he do?
26485What did he want?
26485What dinner engagement have you for to- night?
26485What do you mean?
26485What do you suppose he wants?
26485What do you think of the place, Ferris? 26485 What does this mean?"
26485What for?
26485What for?
26485What have you found out about it?
26485What in?
26485What is it, Johnson?
26485What is it?
26485What is the matter?
26485What is your chief ground of objection?
26485What shares are they?
26485What time, say?
26485What would you do with it, Applerod?
26485What''s the connection,demanded Bobby, the minute they were alone,"between the police department and Sam Stone?"
26485What''s the good news, old pal?
26485What''s the matter with it?
26485What''s the matter with the Brightlight Electric Company?
26485What''s the matter with this thing, anyhow, Dill?
26485What''s the matter?
26485What''s the matter?
26485What''s the use to deny it? 26485 What''s the use?"
26485What''s this for?
26485What?
26485What?
26485When must you have a decision?
26485When you took hold of the_ Bulletin_, your best friends only gave you two months, But are you making any money?
26485When_ are_ you going to marry me?
26485Where Paddy Dolan fell in and died from drinkin''too much water? 26485 Where are you going?"
26485Where are you stopping?

26485Why did n''t some of you guys tell me this was Biff Bates? 26485 Why did n''t you come to us?"
26485Why did n''t you tell me of this?
26485Why is it a shame?
26485Why not?
26485Why not?
26485Why, Bobby, what on earth could you do with it? 26485 Why, where are you going?"
26485Why?
26485Will you come?
26485Will you ever grow up?
26485Will you stand your share of the cost?
26485Will you''stick around''to see the fuss?
26485Would you like to keep it?
26485Ye- e- es?
26485Yes?
26485Yes?

26485Above it was printed:"The_ Bulletin''s_ Rogues''Gallery,"and beneath was the caption:"Had n''t this man better go, too?"
26485After all, though, was not his father right in this, as he had been in everything else?
26485And her eyes and her hair and all?
26485And its figure?
26485And, by the way, is n''t there some little side room where I can have my office?
26485Any other business?"
26485Are they liable to break out again?"
26485Are you it?"
26485Are you it?]

26485Burnit?"
26485Burnit?"
26485Burnit?"
26485But how could I be?
26485But really, Bobby, how difficult a task would it be to get back control of your father''s store?"
26485But the main point is, who''s the guy that''s tryin''to lead you to it?"
26485But what I''d like to find out just now is who is my trustee?
26485But what is this business?"
26485But what''s the matter?

26485Did you ever see her hand, Bobby?
26485Did you get the man''s name?
26485Did you pay off that mortgage?
26485Do n''t you trust anybody any more?"
26485Do you know where it is?"
26485Do you suppose Bobby will have two hundred thousand left when he gets through with grand opera?"
26485Do you suppose I''d want anything to happen to my biggest and best job so close to my wedding- day?"
26485Do you think this new company expects to pay dividends?
26485Do you want to sell that property?"
26485Ees eet not so?
26485Ees eet not?"
26485Else how could he sing the magnificent second act aria?
26485For whose good?"
26485Frank, where are those cocktails?
26485Had they not seen the original fund dwindle and dwindle for two years until now there was nothing left?
26485Have they got Caravaggio and Ricardo with them?"
26485Have you secured the entire tract?"

26485How could he ever face her?
26485How long will it take to get hold of some?"
26485How many additional dollars did that extra- deep wall cost?"
26485How many of you are there?"
26485How much do you need at the present time?"
26485How much help will you need?"
26485How much longer must he wait for her?
26485How would she receive him?
26485How would you go about it?"
26485I do n''t want a thing, not even a hint, printed about this-- see?
26485I guess you put all your lemons into the squeezer and got the juice, eh?"
26485I suppose Mr. Winthrop is to run on Stone''s ticket?"
26485If this is a good stunt do n''t you suppose they''d keep it at home?
26485If we start this big joint it''s got to be partners right, see?
26485Is he going to paint a new one?"
26485Is that it?"
26485Is that you, Jack?...
26485Is there anything else?"
26485Johnson, what would you do with two hundred and fifty thousand dollars?"
26485Johnson?"
26485Jolter, do you know where the Allstyne properties are?"
26485Just as the quartette stepped out of the office, Biff Bates, just coming in, bustled up to Bobby with:"Can I see you just a minute, Bobby?
26485Just watch this thing, will you, Chalmers?
26485Me?
26485Moreover, why had Silas put a prohibitive valuation upon that north eight acres?
26485Nick, do n''t you already seem to see a crease in Bobby''s brow?"
26485Now what''s the answer?"
26485Now why ca n''t we just get together nicely on all of these things and compromise?"
26485Now, how shall I learn who it is?"
26485Now, last of all, what will you take to call it off?"
26485Now, who is the city council?"
26485Sharpe?"
26485Should Bobby leave that legacy just where he had found it, or should he carry it on to still greater heights?
26485Soon, I suppose?"
26485Sounds like I had joined the ranks of the''boodlers,''do n''t it?
26485That''s your steady, ai n''t it, Bobby?"

26485Where''s Johnson?"
26485Where''s the gray envelope, Johnson?"
26485Where''s your gloves?"
26485Whether there was anything malicious about them?"
26485Why did he want to keep it?
26485Why do n''t you get the Orpheum for us and back our show for the week?
26485Why should n''t I go into it?"
26485Why, what did the governor mean?
26485Will it do?"
26485Will you, if I get my father''s business back?"
26485Would I believe him next time?
26485Would n''t another fund dwindle likewise?
26485Would you care to examine a copy of that document again?"
26485You are on the board of governors up there, I believe?"
26485You hear me sing Aïda?
26485You mean to tell all zese people zat you are not to marry wiz me?"
26485You refuse to keep your word zat you marry me?
26485You remember when I got permission to move this road from the north side to the south side of the pumping station?

4353About how deep should you say it was down there, Courtney?
4353Am I smiling?
4353And give this back? 4353 And his solicitor fellow, Loring?"
4353And how much do you offer us for the property?
4353And owe the rest of it to my friends?
4353Any one besides Paul?
4353Anyhow, you have sold him the property and are fully secured?
4353Are there any rumors out against it?
4353Are we positive that he has won a bride?
4353Are we ready?
4353Are you still in favor of the Sage City and Salt Pool route for our new cut- off?
4353Are you taking bona fide subscriptions to your Terminal Hotel Company?
4353Ashley, how do you like your car?
4353At what time was this attachment issued?
4353Birthday?
4353Bruce,said he, looking steadfastly at the comb,"did you ever feel the need of a comb of your own in a public wash room?"
4353But must I do his coat cutting for a month yet?
4353But what''s the rush?
4353But why Gresham?
4353By the by, where''s the fifteen thousand I made Saturday?
4353By the way, where did you hear the rumor?
4353By the way,said Johnny in parting,"who is your agent?"
4353Ca n''t I arrange with you for a twenty- four- hour option?
4353Ca n''t I put him out?
4353Ca n''t I talk to Constance a minute?
4353Ca n''t we come to an agreement now?
4353Ca n''t we put this on some sort of a business basis?
4353Ca n''t you get Mr. Gamble to make you his receiver or trustee, or something, for the irrigation company?
4353Ca n''t you understand that I''m not after the money?
4353Coming into this scramble, Joe?
4353Commission? 4353 Could I learn to play skat in about a day?"
4353Courtney?
4353Curious, is n''t it?
4353Did Gresham and Birchard pull something?
4353Did I understand you to say the side porch of the library?
4353Did he refer you to the Fourth National Bank?
4353Did he say it?
4353Did he say it?
4353Did n''t you say something this morning about a crowd of setter puppies?
4353Did you buy that Bronx property at my party from my guests to sell to us?

4353Do you know anything about the Garfield Bank?
4353Do you know anything against Gamble?
4353Do you know what it is?
4353Do you know where I can find Johnny Gamble?
4353Do you know where Mr. Gamble has gone?
4353Do you mean that gentleman with the ruddy face and the white beard?
4353Do you mean to tell me that Mr. Birchard never has represented the Wobbles family in this matter?
4353Do you really mean that, Johnny?
4353Do you refuse this property at two hundred and seventy- five thousand?
4353Do you suppose he''ll decide on the Sage City and Salt Pool route?
4353Do you think Collaton''s crooked?
4353Do you think Gamble can fully organize such a company?
4353Do you think so?
4353Do you think the Wobbles family will hold their conclave if each of them waits until all the others are together?
4353Do you think there would be a good business in manufacturing it?
4353Does Constance say he''s going to marry her?
4353Does a promoter never build?
4353Does n''t he?
4353Ersten, you offer him a month to rest his eyes, do n''t you?
4353Ersten?
4353Fair?
4353Flivver, I suppose?
4353Follow you home one cold night, or did a friend give it to you?
4353For five hundred and ten thousand?
4353For how long is your option?
4353For how much?
4353Gamble?
4353Get this, Ashley?
4353Gresham?
4353Gresham?
4353Has that grasping old monopolist gumshoed into town again?
4353Have you any property which could be attached?
4353Have you really secured it?
4353Have you secured some proof?
4353Have you secured the consent of your partners in the option to waive the apartment- house requirements?
4353He has n''t actually sold it, has he?
4353He objected to the light in the workroom, did n''t he?
4353He paid you the fifteen thousand, then?
4353Healthy soul, was n''t she?
4353His job''s waiting for him, is n''t it?
4353Honest, did you make one?
4353How could a man be so forgetful of that much money?
4353How deep were you in on this Birchard deal? 4353 How did you do it?"
4353How did you get Ersten?
4353How did you hypnotize him?
4353How do I know till I try?
4353How do you know, with the books lost? 4353 How does the score board look by this time?"
4353How is the million dollars coming on?
4353How much did you say?
4353How much do you want for it?
4353How much do you want for that land?
4353How much money did you say you wanted?
4353How much stock has he subscribed?
4353How much will you give me for the Ersten lease?
4353How much?
4353How nearly is your company filled?
4353How should I know?
4353How''s that?
4353I always had something to brag about, did n''t I?
4353I got the bonds, did n''t I?
4353I guess we''d better go, do n''t you think?
4353I say,renewed Washer, returning one pace,"who are some of your prospective stockholders?"
4353I suppose you still have a disinterested anxiety to have me adopt the Sage City and Salt Pool route?
4353I suppose you wo n''t see that raise, Mort?
4353If a majority of your best customers insisted that they liked the new shop better would you look at the other place?
4353If you wanted to soak him for this fifty thousand why did you try to scare Courtney off?
4353In this place?
4353In this place?
4353Is Mr. Gamble in?
4353Is Mr. Loring in?
4353Is Schnitt your coat cutter?
4353Is he going to move?
4353Is he reliable?
4353Is it possible?
4353Is n''t that Paul Gresham up there with Miss Joy?
4353Is she interested?
4353Is that a bargain?
4353Is that her name?
4353Is there anything I can do for you in that line?
4353Is there room for me in your car?
4353Is your company fully organized?
4353It''s a bargain, then?
4353Jacobs?
4353Johnny Gamble? 4353 Johnny, did you say I should put you on the other list for the same amount?"
4353Keep my share; but why did n''t you send me word?
4353Lady S?
4353Look here, Courtney, is this a put- up job between you and Gamble?
4353Look here, Johnny; I''ve heard that you made a lot of money in the last few weeks, but you have n''t had any more attachments against you, have you?
4353Louis, what is in the shop?
4353May I kiss him, girls?
4353May I speak to Boise a minute?
4353Mr. Gamble is certain to make some money, is he not?
4353Mr. Gresham,called Polly sharply,"how do you come to know about this so quickly?"
4353Must it take a month, Heinrich?
4353Not less than ten stories, and a minimum rental of three thousand dollars a suite?
4353Of the Maryland Gambles?
4353Oh, is she? 4353 Oh, is that so?"
4353Oh, yes,responded Eugene,"we were discussing that, were n''t we?
4353Oh-- Gamble?
4353On what terms?
4353On what terms?
4353On what terms?
4353Out after the breakfast rolls?
4353Ow, yes,Eugene was reminded,"we were discussing that, were n''t we?
4353Paul?
4353Please,implored Constance,"and, Polly--""Yes?"
4353Ready, Constance?
4353Really, has he?
4353Say, Johnny,he blundered in an excess of well- meaning,"why do n''t you rest from business for a minute?
4353Say, Loring, how am I going to make a stringless million?
4353Self- cranker, is n''t it?
4353Shall we hide the bonds?
4353Should you say that this was regular, Birchard?
4353So early in the morning?
4353So the Sloshers are back?
4353So you''re not going to the game, Johnny?
4353Suppose he did?
4353Suppose you lose?
4353Taking any stock yourself, Johnny?
4353That shop is n''t light enough, is it?
4353The other million?
4353The third degree?
4353Then Ersten will ask you:''In this place?'' 4353 Then why did you quarrel with him?"
4353Then you wo n''t take any part in the enterprise?
4353To accommodate a client?
4353To deposit Gresham''s fifteen thousand?
4353True enough-- how should you?
4353Very decent indeed of him, now, was n''t it?
4353Was n''t that Paul Gresham in Mrs. Boyden''s box?
4353Was n''t the building to be ugly enough?
4353We know that,admitted Close;"but why?"
4353Well, how soon you move?
4353Well, what about him?
4353Were you trying to buy Miss Purry''s vacant riverfront property?
4353What about the price?
4353What are they?
4353What are you buying it for-- investment or improvement?
4353What can we do for you to- day?
4353What did I mean then?
4353What did our friend Gresham do that was so decent?
4353What did she say?
4353What did you say you could do?
4353What difference does that make to you?
4353What do you know about Collaton?
4353What do you mean by a renewable option?
4353What do you propose to do first?
4353What do you want for the river- view property you have just purchased?
4353What do you want?
4353What does Mr. Gamble think about it all?
4353What for?
4353What is his name?
4353What is it about Heinrich?
4353What is it?
4353What is the best bid you will make me above that figure?
4353What is this particular bother?
4353What set you hunting up this property?
4353What sort of a man is he?
4353What will you take for the property-- spot cash?
4353What''ll you take for it?
4353What''ll you take for it?
4353What''s Gamble''s scheme, Ben?
4353What''s a million dollars anyway?
4353What''s he done to you?
4353What''s the difference?
4353What''s the joke?
4353What''s the matter with Gamble?
4353What''s the matter with it?
4353What''s the matter?
4353What''s your scheme, Johnny?
4353What''s your telephone number?
4353When must you know?
4353When?
4353Where are you going to take me?
4353Where are you going-- if anybody should ask for you?
4353Where did you find it?
4353Where did you get the money?
4353Where do we go?
4353Where do you lunch?
4353Where do you sleep?
4353Where is she?
4353Where is she?
4353Where next?
4353Where on earth have you been?
4353Where were you yesterday anyhow?
4353Where''s my security?
4353Where''s the surprise?
4353Where?
4353Which one is that?
4353Which was the kind horse?
4353Who said so?
4353Who told you the news?
4353Who''s Gamble?
4353Who''s Miss Joy?
4353Who''s giving the party?
4353Who''s that''s such a wonderful young man?
4353Whose?
4353Why did her aunt hate her?
4353Why did n''t you say that it was Loring who told you?
4353Why did you do that?
4353Why did you take it away from me-- if it''s any of my business?
4353Why do n''t you try it?
4353Why do you have that idea about Gresham?
4353Why do you tell me this?
4353Why do you want to know? 4353 Why not?"
4353Why not?
4353Why not?
4353Why not?
4353Why should I assign my own personal property to you?
4353Why warn him?
4353Why, do you know him?
4353Why, what does Johnny Gamble want with it?
4353Why?
4353Will he move?
4353Will he promise it?
4353Will he?
4353Will it be necessary for me to offer any stock outside this group?
4353Will they agree when they get together?
4353Will you allow me to look at the paper?
4353Will you be busy to- morrow evening?
4353Will you marry me, Constance?
4353Will you sell it?
4353Will you wipe me off the slate?
4353Wo n''t you look at this place?
4353Wo n''t you please tell him that Joe Close and Morton Washer and Colonel Bouncer are coming out on the next train?
4353Would you care to come down- stairs and give them to her yourself?
4353You did n''t pay it, did you?
4353You do n''t even know she''s rich, do you?
4353You do n''t mean to say you''ve left Ersten?
4353You do n''t?
4353You have no German ancestors, have you?
4353You have?
4353You know Gresham, do n''t you, Loring? 4353 You scarcely intend to build your colored apartment- house under your own name?"
4353You understand the restrictions, I suppose?
4353You will excuse me for a few moments, please?
4353You''ll come to the dinner, wo n''t you?
4353You''ll explain to me to- night what all this is about, wo n''t you?
4353You''re going to give us our apartment- house property, are n''t you?
4353You''re not really going to try that absurd stunt?
4353You''re satisfied with the price?
4353You''re telephoning from the house, then?
4353Your cousin Polly?
4353Your eyes began to give out on you, did n''t they?
4353According to my plan I also allowed for two possible holidays; but why are those two special days left white?"
4353After all, what was the use of saying?
4353Anything else you want to know?"
4353Are his eyes very bad?"
4353By skinning Paul Gresham-- good work,.....$ 15,000"How is it?"
4353By the way, from whom do you suppose that option was purchased?"
4353By the way, should you say that this Mr. Gamble chap was all sorts reliable?"
4353Ca n''t we arrange a meeting at my office?"
4353Ca n''t we cut this thing short?"
4353Ca n''t you get any of it back?"
4353Can you get another attachment against him for about fifty thousand dollars?"
4353Collaton, though?
4353Collaton?"
4353Collaton?"
4353Colonel, what have you got?"
4353Coming in, Gresham?"
4353Did I ever tell you how he helped me skin old Mort Washer?"
4353Did he care what the colonel held?
4353Did you know Birchard very well?"
4353Do I enter that on the debit or credit side?"
4353Do n''t you see he only has a million and ten thousand dollars?
4353Do n''t you think that''s clever?"
4353Do you figure on taking some stock?"
4353Do you imagine there are any more outstanding accounts against your firm?"
4353Do you know Schnitt?"
4353Do you know a good horse?"
4353Do you know that my name is seldom mentioned except in connection with a million dollars?
4353Do you propose engaging in a new venture?"
4353Does the item say who controls it now?"
4353Eh, old chap?"
4353For how much can you write your check now, Johnny?"
4353For to- day?"
4353Gamble?"
4353Gamble?"
4353Gamble?"
4353Gamble?"
4353Gresham, what will you want for the property if Gamble, or WHEN Gamble does n''t take it up?"
4353Gresham?"
4353Have you offered it?"
4353He owes Polly five thousand and me fifteen thousand, and if you give him ten thousand dollars for his invention he''ll have a million and how much?
4353Him, eh?
4353How are you doing?"
4353How are you picking them to- day?"
4353How did he get into the deal?
4353How do you find a rhyme for it?"
4353How long will it take you to make your million at the rate of five thousand an hour?
4353How many hours a day?"
4353How much did you get?"
4353How soon may I come over?"
4353How''s that for ethics, Miss Joy?"
4353I got one line that listened like the goods, but I could n''t match it up:''As I lie awake and look at the stars--''Pretty good start, eh?
4353I guess you could say all that if you stopped to take a couple of breaths, could n''t you?"
4353I thought you were to take forty days to make your million dollars?"
4353I understand it''s restricted to apartment- house purposes alone?"
4353I wonder if that goat Angora has horns and a beard?"
4353Indorse that check over to me, wo n''t you?"
4353Is n''t that so, Johnny?"
4353Is n''t that some scheme?"
4353Is n''t that the cunningest sapphire ring?
4353Is that he up there in that box?"
4353Johnny Gamble has n''t a cent left, has he, Loring?"
4353Johnny, must you see us Monday?"
4353Just get rid of it immediately-- can''t you?"
4353Just whom would you like to have me send home?"
4353Kindly excuse me, wo n''t you?"
4353Look here, Johnny; if none of her own set can ring her with an orange wreath what can an outsider do?"
4353Loring?"
4353Make his old friend Courtney take an eighth of a million less than he paid, eh?
4353May I wash my face while I''m waiting for the time to be up?"
4353Notice how I said boutonniere?"
4353Now are you busy?"
4353Now give me the straight of it, Courtney: Is it any use to talk to you?"
4353Now what have you to say about it, you young bantam?"
4353Now, Johnny, how do I know that the S. W.& P. will actually build that connecting link through your land?"
4353Now, Polly, seriously, what would you have done if anything like that had happened to you?"
4353Of course you applauded?"
4353Queer case, is n''t it?"
4353Report to me, wo n''t you, as soon as you find out whether you can secure the property?
4353Royalty, Johnny?"
4353Say, Gresham, what have you up your sleeve?
4353Say, Loring, how did you square that fifteen thousand attachment?"
4353Schnitt, you''ll come back to work in this place, wo n''t you?"
4353Schnitt, you''ll take some of Mr. Ersten''s work home with you from this place, wo n''t you?"
4353Shall I call up everybody and tell them it''s on again?"
4353Tell me, what can I do to help you?"
4353That is not Mrs. Follison in the booth, is it?"
4353The next page began a startling political series, which demanded of the public in violent headlines:"Who Spends Your Money?"
4353The very thought of it makes me ill."How did Polly come to know it first?
4353Then to Gresham:"You''ll excuse me for a little while, wo n''t you?
4353W.?"
4353Want some stock, Polly?"
4353Washer?"
4353Well, where do I find him?"
4353What are your six?"
4353What did you have in the handicap?"
4353What difference did it make if Courtney and Boise did smile about it at first?
4353What do you want it for?"
4353What good would a million dollars do me?"
4353What is to be said?"
4353What''s it worth?"
4353What''s that property going to cost us?"
4353What?"
4353Where are you going?"
4353Where could he make ten thousand dollars in fifteen minutes?
4353Where is he from?"
4353Where''s Sammy?"
4353Where''s that list, Sammy?"
4353Who gets it?"
4353Who is she?"
4353Who''s the graceful party with Gresham?"
4353Who''s to get the loving cup?"
4353Why am I two dollars shy on desk rent, though?
4353Why are n''t you out among some of these shady paths with Constance Joy?
4353Why are you loafing this afternoon?
4353Why are you so stingy with them?"
4353Why do I want to bite Paul Gresham?"
4353Why should I move?"
4353Why?"
4353Will you sell it?"
4353Would you do it?"
4353You can fall in all right, but how will you get out?"
4353You say:''In this place?''
4353You want to sell the property, do n''t you?"
4353You''ll excuse me, wo n''t you, please?"
4353You''re not going to have me arrested?"
4353inquired Johnny,"Not Abraham Jacobs?"
2296( Murmurs are heard:"What does he say?--He?--Bernick?")
2296( Points at HILDAR and asks the others): Is he still loafing about here saying"Ugh"?
2296( To KRAP:) Can the"Indian Girl"go to sea in four-- or five-- days?
2296( To MARTHA:) What do you say, Miss Bernick?
2296( To MRS. BERNICK:) Well, what is the result?
2296( To her daughter) Hilda, dear, you can go for a little stroll in the garden?
2296A nice cup of coffee like that-- Mrs. Bernick( calling in from the verandah): Will you come out here?
2296Ah, Johan-- still here?
2296Ah, you here too?
2296Am I not your foster- mother?
2296Am I nothing to you?
2296And all these flowers--?
2296And can you really suppose that--?
2296And do you suppose I am not ready to make amends to him for it?
2296And even if I could, what good would it do?
2296And look here, did you see Olaf down at the quay?
2296And of course the others are not coming either?
2296And of course they found nothing to complain of?
2296And therefore, I am going to sail tomorrow in the"Indian Girl"-- Bernick: In the"Indian Girl"?
2296And what has the certain person been saying?
2296And who is that they are walking with?
2296And why are you sitting here in the gloom, sewing white things?
2296And why did you think I would come?
2296And you did not tell me?
2296And you quote the bigger countries-- well, what do they think of human life there?
2296Appear in what?
2296Are they coming already?
2296Are they coming already?
2296Are we to expect a storm?
2296Are you alone?
2296Are you mad, brother- in- law?
2296Are you not all of you making some sacrifice in a good cause?--and that willingly and gladly?
2296Aune( coming a step nearer to him): Mr. Bernick, have you ever realised what discharging an old workman means?
2296Aune: Do you really mean, sir, to discharge still more of your old workmen?
2296Aune: Excuse me, sir, but if it is convenient-- Bernick( turning round angrily): What do you want?
2296Aune: Indeed?
2296Aune: What?
2296Aune: Would you have admired the art so greatly if you had been a quill- driver in those days, sir?
2296Back again?
2296Bernick( a prey to uneasy thoughts): Go to the bottom--?
2296Bernick( abstractedly): What is it?
2296Bernick( after a moment''s silence): Well, Lona?
2296Bernick( anxiously): No, what is that?
2296Bernick( hesitatingly): Is Johan with you?
2296Bernick( listening): What is that noise?
2296Bernick( scarcely audibly): Go to the bottom?
2296Bernick( shutting the door and speaking faintly): Too late-- and all to no purpose-- Lona: What do you mean?
2296Bernick( stopping at the door): What does this mean?
2296Bernick( taking a step for- ward): Whom do you mean by"we"?
2296Bernick( to himself): The"Indian Girl"--?
2296Bernick( with a start): Go to the bottom?
2296Bernick: Afraid of what?
2296Bernick: After this?
2296Bernick: Am I in the habit of keeping my word or not?
2296Bernick: And he persists in his intention?
2296Bernick: And how did she take it?
2296Bernick: And is n''t it society itself that forces us to use these underhanded means?
2296Bernick: And suppose that were so?
2296Bernick: And then you will speak?
2296Bernick: And who is it that has to bear the blame for all this disorder?
2296Bernick: And will you make them public?
2296Bernick: And you will be back here in two months?
2296Bernick: Aune?
2296Bernick: Betty, can you forgive me?
2296Bernick: But I understand you to warrant the repairs?
2296Bernick: But not immediately, I hope?
2296Bernick: But surely the guilty one was the proper one to do that?
2296Bernick: But why did you not tell me about this before?
2296Bernick: But you wo n''t come back?
2296Bernick: But, Rummel, what is the meaning of this?
2296Bernick: Do you know what he intends to do?
2296Bernick: Do you mean to say that you call that--?
2296Bernick: Do you suppose I acted as I did from selfish motives?
2296Bernick: Do you suppose I am not deeply conscious of the wrong I have done him?
2296Bernick: Do you suppose that I would hurt her feelings to no purpose by disclosing the truth?
2296Bernick: Do you suppose that of my own free will I would sacrifice my family happiness and my position in the world?
2296Bernick: Do you think I am discharging you with a light heart?
2296Bernick: Good God!--what makes you think that?
2296Bernick: Good; then will you go in with Mr. Krap?
2296Bernick: Have you anything else to say to me?
2296Bernick: Have you been down to the quay again?
2296Bernick: Have you been there?
2296Bernick: Have you considered that, if I confess to the one thing, it will inevitably mean making myself responsible for the other as well?
2296Bernick: Have you forgotten that, if I do that, I must also take on myself guilt that is not mine?
2296Bernick: Have you heard the rumours of extensive buying up of forest lands, mines and waterfalls--?
2296Bernick: Hm-- well, what do you say?
2296Bernick: Hm--; have you discovered anything?
2296Bernick: How is that?
2296Bernick: How?
2296Bernick: In my family life, do you mean?
2296Bernick: In the matter of the railway, do you mean?
2296Bernick: Is anything the matter, Krap?
2296Bernick: Is he on board already?
2296Bernick: Johan, you wo n''t sail in the"Indian Girl"now?
2296Bernick: Lona, how can you think--?
2296Bernick: Lona-- what is your object in coming here?
2296Bernick: Mr. Rorlund--?
2296Bernick: My dear Betty, how can it interest you?
2296Bernick: Never come back?--and Dina with him?
2296Bernick: No-- who is there?
2296Bernick: No?
2296Bernick: Now?
2296Bernick: Oh!--did they send any excuse?
2296Bernick: Quite so, quite so-- then I presume you think you may promise--?
2296Bernick: Really?
2296Bernick: Really?
2296Bernick: Rich?
2296Bernick: She?
2296Bernick: She?
2296Bernick: That is true enough, but still-- Johan: And was n''t it just for Betty''s sake that you broke off your acquaintance with Mrs. Dorf?
2296Bernick: The lie?
2296Bernick: Then you are not--?
2296Bernick: Then you mean to go back?
2296Bernick: Then-- the"Indian Girl"will sail... Aune: Tomorrow?
2296Bernick: Towed out?
2296Bernick: Upon a lie?
2296Bernick: Villainous?
2296Bernick: Well?
2296Bernick: What are you going to do?
2296Bernick: What can they want with him?
2296Bernick: What do you mean?
2296Bernick: What do you mean?
2296Bernick: What do you mean?
2296Bernick: What do you think of me today?
2296Bernick: What does it all matter to me now?
2296Bernick: What is it?
2296Bernick: What is the matter with you?
2296Bernick: What is the matter?
2296Bernick: What is the use of asking such idle questions?
2296Bernick: What rumour?
2296Bernick: What?
2296Bernick: What?
2296Bernick: Who is it that is forcing me to do it?
2296Bernick: Who?
2296Bernick: Whom did it injure at the time?
2296Bernick: Why did you not look after him?
2296Bernick: Why, what is the matter with you?
2296Bernick: With Dina?
2296Bernick: Would you have the heart to insist on that?
2296Bernick: Yes, but to what purpose?
2296Bernick: Yes, but-- apart from that-- has he no regard for the great loss of capital it would mean?
2296Bernick: Yes, was that so-- or not?
2296Bernick: Yes, yes-- well?
2296Bernick: You mean that I am asking an impossibility?
2296Bernick: You surely have n''t confided the truth to her?
2296But are you all by yourselves today?
2296But even in higher circles-- what is the case there?
2296But have you heard that Uncle Johan is going to sail tomorrow with the Americans?
2296But how did you know--?
2296But now tell me what you think of my work during these fifteen years?
2296But suppose it were not, should I be discharged?
2296But tell me, my dear fellow, what became of her parents afterwards?
2296But what I wanted to know is if people are so very-- so very moral over there?
2296But what about the American ship, the"Indian Girl,"which has been laid up here for five weeks and-- Aune: The American ship?
2296But what are you doing here, if you have never been able to forget that?
2296But what can be his object, do you suppose?
2296But what is the matter with you?
2296But what is this that no one else must hear?
2296But who was the thief?
2296But, bless my soul, that is surely Mrs. Rummel?
2296But, tell me, do you think there is a very heavy sea running outside?
2296By speaking out?
2296By the way, where is she today?
2296By what arts of seduction have you--?
2296Ca n''t you see that all these lights are grinning at us?
2296Can these nice, quiet- looking ladies possibly be--?
2296Can you name a single one of our ship- owners who would sacrifice a human life for the sake of paltry gain?
2296Could I look on when in the winter she, who had toiled and drudged for me, began to pine away?
2296Could n''t you--?
2296Could you not see the evil conscience looking out of the man''s eyes?
2296Did not old Mrs. Bernick nearly go bankrupt as the result of it?
2296Did you not know it was Mrs. Bernick''s brother--?
2296Did you see how she at once started making a fuss of Johan yesterday?
2296Dina Dorf?
2296Dina as your wife?--in this town?
2296Dina( without looking up from her work): But are there not many big things done there too?
2296Dina: Can you tell me of any one else here who would have the courage to take me with him?
2296Dina: I suppose it is easy to make a position for oneself over in America?
2296Dina: Of course, you are a stranger-- you can not understand; but I must tell you-- Johan: Well?
2296Dina: Only that?
2296Dina: What good does that do me here?
2296Dina: Yes; I mean are they as-- as proper and as well- behaved as they are here?
2296Dina: Yes?
2296Do I?
2296Do you call the little I can teach you, beautiful?
2296Do you feel within yourself no impulse urging you to shake yourself free of this lie?
2296Do you know what we are-- we who are looked upon as pillars of society?
2296Do you mean it seriously?
2296Do you mean to say you are still playing about with that ridiculous bow?
2296Do you realise that the prosperity or the ruin of hundreds-- of thousands-- depends on him?
2296Do you really set such store on the life you hear rushing by outside?
2296Do you remember that incoherent letter you wrote me when you went away?
2296Do you see that girl playing on the grass down there with Olaf?
2296Do you suppose I shall feel happy at that moment?
2296Do you suppose that it is my own affairs that are absorbing me just now?
2296Do you think I belong to the circus troupe?
2296Do you think I have changed so much?
2296Do you want something?
2296For me to come?
2296Good Lord, what am I saying?
2296Good gracious, is there anything wrong with--?
2296Greatly altered, is it not?
2296Has he confessed?
2296Has n''t he grown a fine fellow?
2296Has the inspection taken place, then?
2296Have I not always been a good master to you?
2296Have you a moment to spare?
2296Have you come from the yard?
2296Have you discovered anything, I want to know?
2296Have you forgotten that it was through you that the best years of a young girl''s life were embittered?
2296Have you heard a hint of anything of the sort?
2296Have you not felt as if you were standing on firmer ground since you gave yourself up to your school work?
2296Have you seen today''s paper?
2296He has deputed me to tell you-- Aune: Deputed you?
2296Hilmar( coming in from the verandah): Fall?
2296Hilmar( coming nearer): Really?
2296Hilmar( from the back of the room): What, what?
2296Hilmar: Ah, I see you have been crying, so I suppose you know all about it too?
2296Hilmar: Aha-- a new scheme, then?
2296Hilmar: Empty?
2296Hilmar: I beg your pardon, Mr. Rorlund?
2296Hilmar: I?
2296Hilmar: Is it?
2296Hilmar: Then you are really going to support this railway scheme after all?
2296Hilmar: Ugh, is it you?
2296Hilmar: What has that got to do with you?
2296Hilmar: What?
2296Hilmar: Yes; I suppose you know the trouble that Hammer is brewing?
2296How can you say such a thing, Mrs. Holt?
2296How can you suppose--?
2296How could she venture to risk leaving such a flighty fellow as me alone, who before I was nineteen had been mixed up in... Bernick: Well, what then?
2296How do you read your Bible, Mr. Parson?
2296How so?
2296How?
2296I could make my own way quite well, if only I did not live amongst people who are so-- so-- Rorlund: So what?
2296I do n''t suppose you want people to see the lady of the house with red eyes?
2296I suppose we are to meet again tomorrow?
2296I suppose you got my two letters?
2296I suppose you have heard that last year there was some talk of a railway line along the coast?
2296If I may ask, is n''t it the railway scheme that is going to fall?
2296In the middle of the marketplace?
2296Is Betty not coming in?
2296Is it not quite safe to predict that all of them will not come out of it alive?
2296Is it really--?
2296Is n''t she sweet and healthy and honest?
2296Is that anything to see?
2296Is that true?
2296Is that true?
2296Is the"Indian Girl"to sail, for all that?
2296Is the"Indian Girl"under sail again?
2296Is there such a rumour as that going about?
2296Is this true?
2296It is more risky, now, for the"Indian Girl"-- Bernick: What do you mean?
2296Johan( softly, grasping BERNICK by the arm): Karsten, Karsten, what have you done?
2296Johan: And she died soon afterwards, too?
2296Johan: And you can say such things to me?
2296Johan: But why not?
2296Johan: Come, come, sir-- what are you saying?
2296Johan: Dina-- is this man speaking the truth?
2296Johan: Dina-- you do not love him?
2296Johan: Do you not often go for a walk in the morning?
2296Johan: Has he never-- oh, of course, I mean has he never so much as said a word in my defence?
2296Johan: I see.--Would you rather go down into the garden than stay here?
2296Johan: I?
2296Johan: Insignificant?
2296Johan: Is n''t it?
2296Johan: Martha, are you always in such a hurry?
2296Johan: Moral?
2296Johan: Not?
2296Johan: On your own account?
2296Johan: Out so early?
2296Johan: Quite so-- why should she?
2296Johan: She?
2296Johan: So it was Martha?
2296Johan: Somebody for me?
2296Johan: Support her?
2296Johan: Tell me, Dina-- is that the only reason you are coming away?
2296Johan: Waited?
2296Johan: What do you mean?
2296Johan: What is that?
2296Johan: What is your answer, Dina?
2296Johan: What must n''t I do?
2296Johan: Who is it that for the last fifteen years has benefited by that shameful rumour?
2296Johan: Yes, but what does she--?
2296Johan: You mean she might have married?
2296Johan: You?
2296Johan?
2296Just let him try it!--You?
2296Krap( in a low voice): And I suppose it is settled that the"Indian Girl"is to sail tomorrow?
2296Krap: And let me tell you, sir, that I am morally certain that-- Bernick: What does this mean, Krap?
2296Krap: But, sir, could you really not tell from Aune''s manner that--?
2296Krap: Can you spare me a moment, Mr. Bernick?
2296Krap: Oh, it was you knocking?
2296Krap: The"Palm Tree"can sail tomorrow, but Bernick: It is the"Indian Girl,"then?
2296Krap: What need of that, sir?
2296Krap: You shall, sir; but, excuse me, what do you propose to do?
2296Ladies, I do not think-- Lona( who has noticed OLAF): Is he yours, Betty?
2296Lon: Then is it for the sake of the community that you have maintained your position these fifteen years upon a lie?
2296Lona( half to herself): What?
2296Lona: An old step- sister-- what use will he have for her now?
2296Lona: And do you never consider what she might have been to you-- she whom you chose in my place?
2296Lona: And every creditor was paid in full?
2296Lona: And if you had?
2296Lona: And of what consequence is it whether such a society be propped up or not?
2296Lona: And they?
2296Lona: And you have the face to tell me that?
2296Lona: And you, Karsten--?
2296Lona: Appear?
2296Lona: But now she is quite reconciled to that?
2296Lona: But those rumours?
2296Lona: But what about me?
2296Lona: But you yourself, Karsten?
2296Lona: But your fellow citizens know nothing about the lie?
2296Lona: Did you jump out of the window?
2296Lona: Do you say"ugh"to that?
2296Lona: Do you suppose I wanted to do anything else?
2296Lona: Do you want them drawn?
2296Lona: Have you any interest in the steamboat trade?
2296Lona: Hm-- Bernick: Then it was not hatred?
2296Lona: How is that?
2296Lona: How?
2296Lona: Indeed?
2296Lona: Is that what you mean to do?
2296Lona: It was Dina that overshadowed you, Martha?
2296Lona: Karsten, tell me-- what gratification does all this show and deception bring you?
2296Lona: No, how could I have the heart to go away and leave you young people who are just setting up housekeeping?
2296Lona: Obliged to?
2296Lona: Of the community?
2296Lona: Oh, Hilmar, am I driving you away?
2296Lona: Really me?
2296Lona: Shall I come too?
2296Lona: Then why not break with all this lying and deceit?
2296Lona: To no purpose, you say?
2296Lona: Ugh?
2296Lona: Was it out of consideration for my happiness that you sacrificed me?
2296Lona: Well-- what then?
2296Lona: Well?
2296Lona: What does Betty know of all this... that underlies her union with you?
2296Lona: What else can make amends for such a wrong?
2296Lona: What has happened?
2296Lona: What is the matter with the man?
2296Lona: What right have you to the position you hold?
2296Lona: What?
2296Lona: Who more so?
2296Lona: Why did you say nothing about it, Karsten?
2296Lona: Why do you think I have come home?
2296Lona: Why have you only begun to realise that now?
2296Lona: With a lie at the bottom of it all?
2296Lona: Would you wish them lit again?
2296Lona: Yes?
2296Lona: You helped to spread it?
2296Lona: You mean Johan?
2296Lona: You mean it?
2296Lona: You?
2296Lona: You?
2296Martha, has your brother never--?
2296Martha: Ah, Johan-- is it you?
2296Martha: Can I be anything to you?
2296Martha: Have you forgotten that it was through you that a woman died in need and in shame?
2296Martha: How can you say that?
2296Martha: I?
2296Martha: I?
2296Martha: Never what?
2296Martha: Ought I not to be the one to put his happiness into his hands, since I loved him?
2296Martha: So that was it?
2296Martha: What is the matter with him, Lona?
2296Martha: You-- lost him?
2296Martha: You?
2296May I go with you?
2296Mrs. Bernick( at the same time): Dina, dear, will you go and ask Katrine to bring us our coffee?
2296Mrs. Bernick( at the verandah door): Karsten, dear, what is it that--?
2296Mrs. Bernick( coming in after him): Hilmar, is it possible?
2296Mrs. Bernick( coming to the door): What is it?
2296Mrs. Bernick( from the coffee table): Dina, wo n''t you--?
2296Mrs. Bernick( getting up): Will you excuse me for a few minutes?
2296Mrs. Bernick( laying her sewing down on her lap): Karsten, can you imagine what his objective is in coming here?
2296Mrs. Bernick( looking at him with a smile): Do you know, Karsten, that you have opened out for me the happiest prospect I have had for many a year?
2296Mrs. Bernick: And actually mean to appear in--?
2296Mrs. Bernick: And coming back here as--?
2296Mrs. Bernick: And do you think these American indecencies will be permitted here?
2296Mrs. Bernick: But good gracious, Lona-- what are you thinking of?
2296Mrs. Bernick: But what do you mean, Lona?
2296Mrs. Bernick: But you should have spoken to him and represented to him that-- Hilmar: In the open street?
2296Mrs. Bernick: But, Johan-- are you out of your senses?
2296Mrs. Bernick: But-- Lona: Look here, Johan-- have you had a good look at Dina?
2296Mrs. Bernick: Dina?
2296Mrs. Bernick: Do you not think a mother sees?
2296Mrs. Bernick: Do you think we had better draw the curtains?
2296Mrs. Bernick: Good gracious, Karsten, what is it?
2296Mrs. Bernick: Has he?
2296Mrs. Bernick: He?
2296Mrs. Bernick: Heavens, what does this mean?
2296Mrs. Bernick: Home already, Karsten?
2296Mrs. Bernick: How can I help thinking of it just now?
2296Mrs. Bernick: Is n''t it possible that they may send him to prison for stealing that money from your mother?
2296Mrs. Bernick: Karsten, Karsten, do you know--?
2296Mrs. Bernick: Know all about what?
2296Mrs. Bernick: No one at all, Karsten?
2296Mrs. Bernick: Of what?
2296Mrs. Bernick: Perhaps you did not sleep well last night?
2296Mrs. Bernick: Poor Karsten, is he to have more annoyance over that?
2296Mrs. Bernick: We, did you say?
2296Mrs. Bernick: Well, I ca n''t help their-- Bernick: What ca n''t you help?
2296Mrs. Bernick: What are you saying, child?
2296Mrs. Bernick: What do you say?
2296Mrs. Bernick: What have you the audacity to say?
2296Mrs. Bernick: What is it, Martha?
2296Mrs. Bernick: What is it?
2296Mrs. Bernick: What?
2296Mrs. Bernick: What?
2296Mrs. Bernick: What?
2296Mrs. Bernick: You are not angry?
2296Mrs. Holt: And when her step- brother, the black sheep, had gone away, and the whole town naturally was talking about him-- what do you think she did?
2296Mrs. Holt: Dina, my love, will you give me that linen?
2296Mrs. Holt: Well, anyway, Mrs. Dorf did n''t get the money, because she-- Mrs. Lynge: Yes, what happened to Dina''s parents afterwards?
2296Mrs. Lynge: A dreadful scandal about Mr. Tonnesen?
2296Mrs. Lynge: And surely I have heard that a touring theatrical company came here, too?
2296Mrs. Lynge: And that was Mrs. Bernick''s brother?
2296Mrs. Lynge: And that was why he ran away to America?
2296Mrs. Lynge: But what does it all mean?
2296Mrs. Lynge: But what has this Miss Hessel made of herself in America?
2296Mrs. Lynge: Dina?
2296Mrs. Lynge: I?
2296Mrs. Lynge: My goodness, did she create a scandal too?
2296Mrs. Lynge: Oh, so Mrs. Bernick has a step- sister, too?
2296Mrs. Lynge: Then it is he the scandal is about?
2296Mrs. Lynge: Things really used to be as bad as that here?
2296Mrs. Lynge: Was that not the play in which you told me you took the part of a young man''s sweetheart, Mrs. Rummel?
2296Mrs. Lynge: Well, what about Mrs. Bernick''s brother?
2296Mrs. Lynge: What about him?
2296Mrs. Lynge: What do you mean?
2296Mrs. Rummel( glancing towards RORLUND): I?
2296Mrs. Rummel( in the same breath): Dina, how can you--?
2296Mrs. Rummel: Did you say a theatrical company?
2296Mrs. Rummel: Do n''t you know the dreadful scandal about him?
2296Mrs. Rummel: Have you not heard that--?
2296Mrs. Rummel: I?
2296Mrs. Rummel: Is it possible?
2296Mrs. Rummel: No, are we really to have a circus?
2296Mrs. Rummel: What made you begin to talk about--?
2296My work may seem many- sided, but what have I really accomplished?
2296Not revenge?
2296Nothing wrong with the"Palm Tree,"I hope?
2296Of course she has a home here with us; her salary as a teacher is more than enough for her to dress on; what more could she want?
2296Oh yes, you have changed too, although-- Johan: What do you mean?
2296Oh, Lona, why did not I really know you then-- in the old days, I mean?
2296Oh, is that you, Dina?
2296Oh, really?
2296Oh, yes, he can do that; but does that dispose of the matter?
2296Olaf( coming to the verandah door): Uncle Hilmar, do you know what uncle Johan asked me?
2296Olaf( who meanwhile has come up the steps from the garden): Have you been chased by a walrus, uncle?
2296Olaf: And shall I be allowed to be what I like, when I grow up?
2296Olaf: Father, I promise I will never do it again-- Bernick: Never run away?
2296Olaf: Mother, may I go out into the street too?
2296Or are you afraid of your ugly old aunt?
2296Pardon me, Miss Hessel, but what do you propose to do in our Society?
2296Rorlund: A play by Mr. Tonnesen?
2296Rorlund: And are you not afraid that an easier intercourse with the depravity of the outer world--?
2296Rorlund: Answer me, Dina; do you mean to do this-- entirely of your own free will?
2296Rorlund: At home at this time of day, Mr. Bernick?
2296Rorlund: Beautiful?
2296Rorlund: Big things done--?
2296Rorlund: But did you not see as well how agreeable she was to you out there?
2296Rorlund: But how do you explain that, Mr. Tonnesen?
2296Rorlund: But why do you not take a trip over there yourself?
2296Rorlund: But why?
2296Rorlund: Could you not try to alter your nature?
2296Rorlund: Do you really mean it, Mr. Vigeland?
2296Rorlund: Do you really promise us so much, then, from this undertaking, gentlemen?
2296Rorlund: Excuse me, but what did you mean by that?
2296Rorlund: Fled?
2296Rorlund: Get right away, you say?
2296Rorlund: How is that?
2296Rorlund: In the bigger countries?
2296Rorlund: Is human life a petty consideration?
2296Rorlund: Is it possible?
2296Rorlund: Is it with your consent, Mr. Bernick?
2296Rorlund: Is there anything particular going on?
2296Rorlund: Tell me, Dina-- why is it that you are fond of being with me?
2296Rorlund: We?
2296Rorlund: What do you mean exactly when you call a thing beautiful?
2296Rorlund: What do you mean?
2296Rorlund: What?
2296Rorlund: Who has spoken to you about such things?
2296Rorlund: Why do n''t you want to sit with the others?
2296Rorlund: Why not?
2296Rorlund: You?
2296Rorlund: Your wife?
2296Rummel( coming out of BERNICK''S room): Olaf, run away?
2296Rummel( going to the verandah door): Singing?
2296Rummel: But are you sure you know what to say?
2296Rummel: But, Bernick-- in your present agitated frame of mind-- Bernick: Well, what?
2296Rummel: Can you ask?
2296Rummel: Excuse me, Mr. Bernick, but are you not well?
2296Rummel: Is the mail in?
2296Rummel: Oh dear, is it you?
2296Rummel: Why, are you nervous about the"Palm Tree"?
2296Rummel: Yes, is n''t it a capital scheme?
2296So that drunken fellow deserted her?
2296Some words he let fall yesterday-- and then his room was empty, and his knapsack and clothes missing... Bernick: Yes, yes?
2296Suppose a charge of blasting- powder had to be exploded in a dangerous place, and that unless it were exploded the line could not be constructed?
2296Suppose they do behave outrageously, what does it concern us?
2296Supposing anything does happen to a ship, it does n''t follow that human life will be in danger, does it?
2296Surely you remember how badly off our mother was when you went away?
2296Take it away, I tell you!--Why on earth have you never gone over to America on one of your father''s ships?
2296Tell me, are you really happy?
2296The American--?
2296The Ladies: Who is shouting?
2296The ship is ready to sail?
2296Their being your relations?
2296Then shall we consider it a bargain that we are to go for a walk like this together every morning?
2296There has not been a death in the family, has there?
2296Think-- did you not see that Dina was in the room?
2296Ugh, I can see them there-- Bernick: See whom?
2296Uncle Hilmar, have you heard the news?
2296Vigeland: I only want to know if you are also of opinion that the"Palm Tree"should sail tomorrow?
2296Was n''t it known all over the town?
2296We have been two good sisters to him, have n''t we, Lona?
2296We two foster- sisters-- haven''t we both lost our children?
2296Well, I must say-- Lona: What must you say?
2296Well, I suppose you can guess what I want you for?
2296Well, then, can I do otherwise than as I am doing?
2296Well, we shall see if the Press does n''t put a stopper on him; yes-- forgive me, Betty, but-- Bernick: The Press, do you say?
2296Well, what does that matter to me, once I am back over there on my farm again?
2296Well, what else could you expect-- a man so loaded with responsibilities as I am?
2296Well?
2296Were n''t we, both of us, young and thoughtless?
2296What about?
2296What did I find?
2296What do you call it, then?
2296What do you know about him?
2296What do you understand by a beautiful thing?
2296What does it all consist of?
2296What else could I-- the son, the only son-- do than look about for some means of saving it?
2296What has become of all the ladies today?
2296What have I to work for now?
2296What have you to do here after this?
2296What is it you propose to do?
2296What is it?
2296What is really the truth of those stories?
2296What is that?
2296What makes you do that?
2296What parents would trust their children to such a woman?
2296What reason had I to hope, you mean?
2296What sort of drivel is this?
2296What was more natural than that scandal- mongers should find some connection between these two rumours?
2296What would have happened between you and her if it had come to her ears?
2296What would have happened if I had not acted secretly?
2296What would you wish them to be, then?
2296What?
2296Where are you going?
2296Where has Johan gone?
2296Where is Karsten?
2296Where is Olaf today?
2296Where is Olaf?
2296Where is he?
2296Who can prove that the money was stolen?
2296Who would not have been?
2296Who would recognise the madcap that ran away from home?
2296Who?
2296Why could n''t he disappear for good and all?
2296Why did you come back, then?
2296Why do n''t they?
2296Why do n''t you get hold of a real gun?
2296Why do n''t you stay upstairs?
2296Why do you look so tragical?
2296Why do you suppose these mercenary- minded creatures were so willing to go into the undertaking with you?
2296Why not?
2296Why should the"Indian Girl"go to the bottom?
2296Why, surely is n''t that--?
2296Why?
2296Will you answer me that?--should I be discharged?
2296Will you promise me that, Dina?
2296With my wretched health?
2296Would you like me to call her?
2296Would you not like to take a look at the garden?
2296You and I, Martha, the two old aunts-- What are you looking at?
2296You can give me your assurance, I suppose, that the repairs have been satisfactorily carried out?
2296You can not possibly be serious about it?
2296You have not done anything wrong?
2296You know what is in the wind, I suppose?
2296You know yourself how slowly the work has gone on in the yard since we got the new machines and the new inexperienced hands?
2296You make excuses for him, and countenance any sort of rascality on his part-- Not rascality?
2296You should bear what that fellow in there says-- Rorlund: He?
2296You should hear how in America-- Rorlund: He, in there?
2296You surely do not suppose I let her want for anything?
2296You think he can look about for another job?
2296You will say that I can show by our books that nothing dishonest happened?
2296Your--?
13152''Ere, quick, where be a stone?
13152''Small- pox at Wellington''--that''s not it, is it? 13152 ''Wo n''t you bid for it, then?''
13152A shell, major? 13152 A what?"
13152Absence?
13152Ah, who is that?
13152Ah,said Kate demurely,"what a beautiful day it is?
13152All right?
13152And I have carte blanche to that amount?
13152And I wo n''t see you at all?
13152And Mrs. Dimsdale, how is she? 13152 And been took-- received by her?"
13152And for what?
13152And how about you?
13152And how are we to get to this safe? 13152 And how are ye?"
13152And how d''ye know it? 13152 And how do you intend to do this?"
13152And how does this sucker act?
13152And how is the doctor?
13152And how long is this to last?
13152And how would you do it?
13152And if he has done this, what can I do?
13152And suppose I refuse?
13152And that is?
13152And the balance?
13152And the captain?
13152And the expenses?
13152And the ornamental fencing? 13152 And the price of claims will go down?"
13152And this is the young lady? 13152 And what are we to do in the mean time?"
13152And what became of the negro?
13152And what became of this British star?
13152And what brings_ you_ down here?
13152And what d''ye want here, Sarah Jane?
13152And what did he say?
13152And what did you do?
13152And what makes this pimple contract?
13152And what would knock him silly?
13152And when are they coming back?
13152And which are the elect?
13152And who is dis?
13152And why not? 13152 And why not?"
13152And why not?
13152And why should you prevent me from going to church?
13152And you had the letter written?
13152And you have not forgotten the days in Edinburgh yet?
13152And you really thought we had forgotten you because we were insane enough to stop writing at that villain''s request?
13152And you say dey are rich?
13152And you wo n''t let me have this throifling accommodation?
13152And you wo n''t tell me where you heard this of the Girdlestones?
13152And you, Tom, you rogue, is this the way you spend your mornings? 13152 Are n''t you too proud to be hanging on to a man who does n''t want you-- a man that is a smooth- tongued sneak, with the heart of a rabbit?"
13152Are we near?
13152Are we to have a lantern?
13152Are you afraid to sleep in your own room?
13152Are you coming to the office?
13152Are you going out?
13152Are you going?
13152Are you so bitter against the lad as to grudge him the society of his own father?
13152Are you sure they are round?
13152Are you, indeed?
13152At it again?
13152Because what?
13152Beg pardon, sir,he said, raising his hand to his kepi,"but do n''t you think this pace is too good to last?
13152But do n''t it seem kind o''hard on them as isn''t-- on the mates an''the hands?
13152But how about Jorrocks and Stevens and Rebecca? 13152 But how about yourselves, if what you say is true?"
13152But how on earth are you going to buy all the diamonds in? 13152 But if you have only a part of the supply in your hands, how are you to regulate the market value?
13152But the hotel- keeper and the servants?
13152But the smell?
13152But there are Government inspectors?
13152But we can rely upon you?
13152But why, my dear, why? 13152 But you-- how do you stand for money?"
13152But, major, I understood you to say that he was cut in two?
13152By the way, malignant typhoid is very catching, is it not?
13152Ca n''t you see him yet?
13152Cacodyl?
13152Can I have a word with you, Fugger?
13152Can I have my maid?
13152Can I wash my hands?
13152Captain Miggs in?
13152Come vere? 13152 Could we get an impression?"
13152D''ye think I could see Muster Girdlestone, sir,she asked, with a curtsey;"or, maybe, you''re Mr. Girdlestone yourself?"
13152D''ye think it will send prices down here as much as they say?
13152Did I not telegraph and tell you that I was coming?
13152Did any one suggest it to you?
13152Did ever you see such an animal in your life?
13152Did n''t you, sir?
13152Did ye say it would send the price o''claims down? 13152 Did you post my note?"
13152Did you read it?
13152Did you see her?
13152Did you see her?
13152Do light a cigarette?
13152Do n''t you see him crawling along the ground?
13152Do n''t you think, Ezra,he said, clutching his son''s arm,"that is a very foolish saying about''murder will out''?
13152Do you hear that?
13152Do you imagine that it will affect prices in Africa?
13152Do you know who the young lady is that he is talking to?
13152Do you like me, then, Kate?
13152Do you mean to assert that it was?
13152Do you mean to tell me this ship has no bottom?
13152Do you think I am mad, then?
13152Do you think you could love me?
13152Does he, though?
13152Does he, though?
13152Eh, mister, what''s that?
13152Eh?
13152Eh?
13152First of all, what do you think of this?
13152Get run down?
13152Got what, sir?
13152Had n''t you better take a seat?
13152Hard at it as usual, eh? 13152 Has any one passed this way before us?"
13152Has any one passed?
13152Has n''t he got a grown- up son?
13152Have n''t you got one word for me?
13152Have they any circulation?
13152Have they gone on?
13152Have you a duplicate of that paper?
13152Have you come to insult him in his absence?
13152Have you had your letter?
13152Have you seen three men on horseback?
13152Have you the painter, Jarge?
13152He did not succeed in tracing you?
13152He must be dangerous when he is like that?
13152Here, Burt, you light it?
13152His body does not, but his soul, Ezra, his soul? 13152 How about Girdlestone?"
13152How about John Harston''s daughter, eh?
13152How about our purchaser at the diamond fields?
13152How am I to get a man of any standing to do such a piece of business?
13152How are we to know?
13152How are you going to pay this man?
13152How are you, dad? 13152 How are you, mam dear?"
13152How are you, my dear major?
13152How can it depend upon me?
13152How d''ye do? 13152 How dare you speak to me so?"
13152How do the tubes enable the creature to walk?
13152How do we know that such rumours will get about; and if they do, how do we know that they will prove to be unfounded?
13152How do you like the grounds, then?
13152How do, Girdlestone, how do?
13152How does it create a vacuum?
13152How does the Priory suit you?
13152How does this creature walk?
13152How is it that none of those ships go down? 13152 How is it that you have never been to see us?"
13152How is it, then?
13152How many teeth has a rabbit?
13152How much have you?
13152How much money do you care to invest?
13152How old were you then?
13152How will the money go if the doctors are right?
13152How will you do that?
13152How will you have it?
13152Hullo, what''s this?
13152I am then to tilegraph or write this lie to England and git it inserted in the papers?
13152I hope dere is nothing wrong mit my good vriend, Madame Scully?
13152I presume,Girdlestone said, in a conciliatory voice,"that there would be no real danger as long as the weather was fine?"
13152I suppose you''ll have her thoroughly repaired now?
13152I think I saw you with Mrs. Scully yesterday?
13152I wonder what your mother will say?
13152I wonder whether she will come?
13152I wonder,thought Tom to himself,"if one of these poor devils goes home and murders his wife, who ought to be hung for it?
13152I''ve got two thousand laid out at seven per cent.--haven''t I, Clara?
13152If a man once falls away, what is there to separate him from the beasts? 13152 In the United Metropolitan, John?
13152Indeed?
13152Is Mr. Girdlestone in?
13152Is he in?
13152Is he often like that, then?
13152Is his father a Kauffmann?
13152Is it a merchant you mean?
13152Is it a widow you mane? 13152 Is it really true,"she asked, with a quick pant and a catch of her breath,"that Mr. Dimsdale is engaged to be married?"
13152Is n''t it time to wake him up?
13152Is n''t that Mr. Dimsdale down there?
13152Is n''t there any more about it?
13152Is n''t there?
13152Is that the way he speaks after we makes him? 13152 Is there no other sail that we could put up?"
13152Is there not one waiting?
13152It is a secret, then?
13152It passes the grounds at about twenty to ten, then?
13152It''s some sort of antediluvian reptile, is n''t it?
13152Look here, major,the latter said, when they came into their room,"is it well to tell a Brussian gentleman to go to the devil?
13152Mail from Capetown?
13152Major- general Scully, did you say? 13152 Make a fuss?
13152May I request you to take a seat?
13152Miss Harston, is she at home?
13152Mr. Dimsdale lives with you, I believe?
13152No, John, was she though? 13152 Not Miss Harston?
13152Not in it, ai n''t ye?
13152Not-- not his ward?
13152Nothing more?
13152Now, what the divil d''ye want?
13152Of course, I may tell my own people, dearest, about our engagement?
13152Oh, it is, is it?
13152Oh, that''s the idea, is it?
13152Oh, they correspond?
13152Oh, why are you so harsh?
13152Oh, you do, do you?
13152People can look over their garden walls without our interfering with them, ca n''t they?
13152Rebecca,said Ezra slowly,"do you hate Kate Harston?"
13152Say, now,he said, with an unpleasant confidential leer,"were n''t you surprised to see us come back-- eh?
13152Shall I light the lantern?
13152Shall I send in the policeman, sir?
13152She did n''t make a fuss?
13152Spoke like that, did he?
13152Suppose I have?
13152Suppose she did n''t?
13152Sure if I am to give up me pool and whist, how is a distinguished soldier, and, above all, a distinguished soldier''s wife, going to live?
13152Surely you are not going, sir?
13152Surely you can do without me?
13152That would n''t do, Sandy, would it?
13152That''s it?
13152The fall in prices is sure to be permanent, then?
13152The news, is it?
13152The question is, did you do anything that your father was ashamed of?
13152The question is, will we get near enough to stop''em afore they gets off on the next tack?
13152The what?
13152Them, you mean?
13152Then perhaps you can tell me what the structures are which pass through the foramina of the sphenoid?
13152Then you intend to pension the wives?
13152Then you were always-- inclined that way?
13152Then,said Kate,"you think that no one will be saved except those who frequent the Purbrook Street Chapel?"
13152There are sharks about there?
13152There is no chance of his turning up here and spoiling the whole business?
13152They ca n''t get off the high road, can they?
13152To Hampshire?
13152To the barque which has just got her anchor up?
13152Vat did you say his name vas?
13152Vat''s de matter mit him?
13152Vere are those oders?
13152Very rich?
13152Want me to go?
13152Was it aboot a bill?
13152We can begin getting our cargo out, I suppose? 13152 We have done our work all right, have n''t we?"
13152Well, Parker, who won?
13152Well, but so you--"Eh, would ye?
13152Well, doctor,the merchant asked,"how is your patient?"
13152Well, go on-- what about her?
13152Well, sir?
13152Well, what more can I do?
13152Well, what of that?
13152Well, what then?
13152Well, what then?
13152Well, what''s the news?
13152What am I to do down at Bedsworth?
13152What are the Government inspectors for? 13152 What are the suckers like?"
13152What are ye after at all? 13152 What are ye crying about?"
13152What are ye up to now?
13152What are you afther at all?
13152What are you driving at? 13152 What are you going to do?"
13152What be he a suckin''at? 13152 What can I do for you?"
13152What d''ye say to heavin''her to?
13152What d''ye think of it?
13152What d''ye think of that?
13152What d''ye think of that?
13152What d''ye think of that?
13152What d''ye want to stand asking questions for? 13152 What did you mean by speculating without my knowledge, and telling me at the same time that I knew all that was done?
13152What do I mean? 13152 What do you know about cacodyl?"
13152What do you mean sir?
13152What do you mean?
13152What do you think about this report?
13152What do you think of it all?
13152What does the young puppy want to come poaching upon our preserves for? 13152 What for did you make him your friend, then?"
13152What for?
13152What have I done that I should be so unhappy? 13152 What have I done that is so dreadful?
13152What have you done with the money, then, John?
13152What if she fails to come?
13152What is it that you have seen?
13152What is it you want?
13152What is it, me boy?
13152What is it, my boy?
13152What is it, my dear?
13152What is that noise, Captain Miggs?
13152What is the highest as yet?
13152What is the latest train to- morrow?
13152What is the truth of it, Mr. Girdlestone? 13152 What is their address, then?"
13152What is there to live for?
13152What is this?
13152What luck?
13152What makes you look at me so strangely?
13152What makes you stand about like that? 13152 What men could I git?"
13152What of that?
13152What right had you to come to me with such a proposal? 13152 What say you, boys?"
13152What shall we have to do?
13152What sort of news?
13152What steps have you taken?
13152What text should I think of?
13152What the divil is a Kauffmann?
13152What then?
13152What was it?
13152What was that?
13152What will our credit be worth when this matter leaks out?
13152What will you drink?
13152What will you give?
13152What will you sell it for?
13152What would knock him senseless?
13152What would you advise, then?
13152What would you advise?
13152What''s all this?
13152What''s that she says?
13152What''s that to you?
13152What''s that, mother?
13152What''s that?
13152What''s the good of having a pilot aboard if I am to keep sober?
13152What''s the matter now?
13152What''s the matter then?
13152What''s the matter with the place?
13152What''s the matter with you, father?
13152What''s the matter with your lip? 13152 What''s the matter, then?"
13152What''s the news?
13152What''s the row?
13152What''s the town?
13152What''s this? 13152 What''s up with him?"
13152What_ is_ the object?
13152When could I see you?
13152When do you go?
13152When will I be able to draw Jim''s back pay, sir?
13152Where are Jorrocks and Rebecca?
13152Where are the others?
13152Where are you taking me, my son?
13152Where does he keep''em?
13152Where is he?
13152Where is he?
13152Where is the danger? 13152 Where is the fisherman?"
13152Where is the key?
13152Where then?
13152Where to, sir?
13152Where will you sleep, sir?
13152Where''s something white?
13152Where''s the captain?
13152Where''s your lantern, guv''nor? 13152 Where?"
13152Which way are you going?
13152Who are you?
13152Who could foresee such a thing?
13152Who do you think I have come across down here? 13152 Who is a- comin''with me?"
13152Who is that man who has come down?
13152Who is the lady?
13152Who is this young lady?
13152Who painted out those Plimsoll marks?
13152Who said there was news?
13152Who was it who kept us all up to it whenever we wished to back out? 13152 Who was it?
13152Who will know about it?
13152Who''s the gal?
13152Whose names have you got?
13152Why Cousin Tom, who would have thought of meeting you here?
13152Why can you never be my wife?
13152Why do n''t you make old Miggs bore a hole in them, or put a light to a barrel of paraffin? 13152 Why do you want her so well cared for, then?"
13152Why is it that you treat me in this cruel way?
13152Why not?
13152Why not?
13152Why not?
13152Why so?
13152Why such a friend as that?
13152Why was he cross?
13152Why wo n''t you let me pass?
13152Will you go?
13152With Major Clutterbuck?
13152Wo n''t he give us nothing to remembrance him by?
13152Wo n''t he give us somethin''at partin''?
13152Would n''t I?
13152Would the lantern be of any use to you?
13152Would thirty pounds pay you?
13152Yes, he is sure to pass,the doctor answered;"but-- bless my soul, who''s this?"
13152Yes, it is a sad business; but what else is there?
13152Yes, who won?
13152You are better, then?
13152You are prepared, then,said Ezra, glancing keenly at him,"to put yourself at our orders on condition that you are well paid for it?"
13152You are very old friends?
13152You ca n''t write poetry, can you?
13152You did n''t speak to him? 13152 You do n''t mean to say that you would marry suppose you had the chance?"
13152You have n''t got a drop to drink, boss?
13152You have probosed, then?
13152You have spoken to our friend here about the business?
13152You have the goodness to suggist that on me way I should rook me fellow- passengers in the boat?
13152You have your stones all safe, though?
13152You heard of the breaking of the Agra Bank?
13152You know Tom?
13152You read with my son, I believe?
13152You remember my meeting you two or three Saturdays ago, and speaking to you about your house and your boat and one thing or another?
13152You remember the day we had at the Pentlands?
13152You say you have been living here for three weeks?
13152You see I am not afraid, Mr. Burt, am I?
13152You see, Farintosh,he remarked,"it might be a false alarm, might it not?"
13152You want a thousand pounds?
13152You will?
13152You wish me to go to Russia?
13152You wo n''t do it?
13152You wo n''t give us nothing?
13152You''d reduce my screw, would ye?
13152You''ll never leave me entirely?
13152You''ve not come with the intention of seeing him, have you?
13152''A merchant prince?''
13152''Germany and the Vatican''--''Custom House Duties at Port Elizabeth''--''Roosian Advances in Cintral Asia''eh?
13152''Girdlestone?''
13152''Nothing?''
13152''Suicide?''
13152''What then?''
13152''Where is he, Sandy?''
13152''Where''s Jim?''
13152''Where''s Jim?''
13152''Why not?''
13152''You''ve had experience o''loonies?''
13152A major- general, is he?
13152Again, where was their luggage?
13152And those two knives upon the wall, the straight one and the one with the crook; is there a history about them?"
13152And what sort of firm must this be, which turned so fair a side to the world and in which he had embarked his fortune?
13152And you, Sandy, ca n''t you bring yourself to your berth without being asked?
13152Any more questions you would like to ask?"
13152Are n''t you sorry that ever you made the acquaintance of Morrison''s second floor front?
13152Are you mad?"
13152Are you so unhappy, then?"
13152Are you thinking of making for France now?"
13152Burt?"
13152But I say, gov''nor, hain''t you got a drop of something about the office?"
13152But in time do n''t you think you could come to love me?"
13152But now-- now what notice do you take of me?"
13152But what is the matter with the captain?"
13152But where were their adversaries?
13152But you must have seen all these things many times before?
13152Can you hear what I say?"
13152Can you meet me at Nelson''s Cafe at four o''clock?
13152Could it be that Tom had informed her guardian of their engagement, and had received such a rebuff that he had abandoned her in despair?
13152Could it be that her friends had arrived and had managed to send a message to her?
13152D''ye know a young fellow called Dimsdale--?
13152D''ye tell me that you know more about it than the men on''Change and the firms that do business with them?"
13152D''ye think that a man who''s worn Her Majesty''s scarlet jacket for twinty years would dirty his hands with such a trick?
13152D''ye think we''ll let you spoil a lay of this sort as we might never get a chance of again?"
13152Did I tell you what the Honourable Jack Gibbs said to me at the club?
13152Did iver ye hear such infernal nonsense in your life?
13152Did they serve this writ on you?"
13152Did ye?
13152Did you hear my father say anything as to where they were going?"
13152Do n''t know him, eh?"
13152Do n''t you notice a change in him yourself?"
13152Do n''t you see the sequence of events?"
13152Do n''t you think-- don''t you think you could like me a little bit if you were to try?
13152Do you consider it honourable to make use of knowledge gained in confidence for the purpose of extorting money?"
13152Do you follow me?"
13152Do you follow me?"
13152Do you know that?"
13152Do you know what he did the other day?
13152Do you know where that is?"
13152Do you think that it would ever occur to any one''s mind that the express ran over a dead body?"
13152Eh, Ezra?
13152Eh, Matilda?"
13152Eh, Matilda?"
13152Eh?"
13152Ezra has his faults, but what man has not?
13152Fugger?"
13152Gilray?"
13152Girdlestone?"
13152Girdlestone?"
13152Girdlestone?''
13152Had n''t I warned you a thousand times of the danger of it?
13152Has there been a v''yage yet that I have n''t come to ye, Muster Girdlestone, and told ye I was surprised ever to find myself back in Lunnon?
13152Have some more rum?"
13152Have they asked for me much?"
13152Have ye nothing betther to do than to block up the door of a decent office?"
13152Have you anything to complain of in my treatment of you?"
13152Have you chosen the right sort of men for agents?
13152Have you heard dat Mr. Ezra Girdlestone is about to be married?"
13152Have you your cheque- book with you?
13152Hey there, Billy, ye divil''s brat, where''s the mail bag?"
13152How about a medical certificate?"
13152How are my stud- buttons?
13152How are ye?"
13152How can I alter the ways of life that I have learned?"
13152How can I find this man?"
13152How can they expect poor Tom to read?"
13152How could he, with his luxurious tastes, bear the squalor and poverty which would be his lot were the firm to fail?
13152How could she hesitate to believe it when it was confirmed by his avoidance of Eccleston Square and of herself?
13152How could you do it-- oh, how could you have the heart?"
13152How d''ye do, Richardson, how d''ye do?
13152How d''ye do?"
13152How dare you address me so?"
13152How dare you speak to me in such a way?
13152How did you like them all?"
13152How do you work it?"
13152How does a thousand pound stroike you?
13152How far to Bedsworth, guard?"
13152How has all gone since you have been down here?"
13152How long have we to do it in?
13152How long was she going for?
13152How was it that they now, for the first time, struck her as being terrible?
13152How will that do?"
13152I am sure that you would do anything to serve me, would you not?"
13152I do n''t think we need fear the coroner, or any one else then?"
13152I hope he has not been overworking himself?"
13152I suppose she is fit to go that distance?"
13152I thought they were only used when a ship was in danger?"
13152I wonder what has become of Burt?"
13152I''ve been out of a billet for some time, and Muster Girdlestone he came to me and he says,''You''re William Stevens, hesquire?''
13152If it had not been for you, who would have thought of it?"
13152If the African merchant were capable of this, what might he not be capable of?
13152If thread and cotton ca n''t stand it, how''s the linin''of a poor cove''s stomach, I''d like to know?"
13152If we go up quietly and openly, and come down quietly and openly, who is to suspect anything?
13152If you can give me your word of honour when I come back that you''ve given up your naughty ways, why then--""What then?"
13152Is it he, or that smug- faced villain behind the bar, who, for the sake of the gain of a few greasy coppers, gives him the poison that maddens him?"
13152Is it not terrible that such a business should go to ruin?
13152Is that it--''Discovery of great Diamond Moines?''"
13152Is the_ Maid of Athens_ unloading?"
13152Is this known in the City?
13152It is n''t that that makes you cheerful, is it?
13152It was too bad to put you to such a trial, was n''t it?
13152It would argue indiscretion on his part, would it not?"
13152Jorrocks?"
13152Let us send Susan out for a bottle of claret?"
13152Let''s have a deal, my tear Mr. Fugger, do?"
13152Let''s see; Fenchurch Street, eh?
13152Maybe you would like a bit o''plaster to bind up the cut?"
13152McTavish?"
13152My Gott, vot is to become of us all?
13152No billiards, no cards, no betting-- how does he manage to get through the day at all?
13152No; why should she?
13152Not much worth now, is it?
13152Now are you satisfied?"
13152Now, of what gas was that bubble composed?"
13152Now, what I purpose is to work through you, d''ye see?
13152Now?"
13152Of course a list of the donations will be printed and circulated?"
13152Of course, of course, why should n''t it?
13152Of what use are they?
13152Oh, Rebecca, Rebecca, what shall I do?"
13152On the other hand, could it have chanced that Tom had met this lady of the opera, and that her charms had proved too much for his constancy?
13152Once out of sight of England and on the broad ocean, what detective could follow their track?
13152One who trades with the Afrikaner?"
13152Out with it straight, now-- have you come after me, or have you come after my money?"
13152Promise me that you will do right by her-- promise it?"
13152Sampson?"
13152Say, that chap at the gate has n''t been giving you no cheek has he-- him with the game eye?"
13152Shall I see you to- night?"
13152Shall we say to- morrow evening for the job?"
13152She seemed reconciled to go?"
13152She sent me''ere with a message?"
13152She''ll draw ahead presently; wo n''t she, Jarge?"
13152Should she accept this chance of escape, or should she wait some word from her friends?
13152Still her face is very sweet and pretty, so I wo n''t deny your good taste-- how could I after you have paid your addresses to me?
13152Straight now, between man and man?"
13152Suppose we send out for a bottle of sparkling, eh?"
13152Surely you''re not keeping anything secret from your old mother?"
13152That was n''t you, was it?"
13152That was surely impossible; yet why was it that he had ceased to walk through the square?
13152That''s nigh about the only visitors we ever gets here; bean''t it, Jarge?"
13152That''s sense, mates, ai n''t it?"
13152The gallows would be a nice end to all your preaching and praying, would n''t it?"
13152The same intelligent eye, the same cheery expression, the same devil- may- care manner and dry humour--""Answer my question, will you?"
13152The taller one returned to the charge, however, with,"And this muscle-- is it composed of striped fibres or non- striped?"
13152Their present rate of interest is three and a half?"
13152Then, turning blandly towards him, he said in the mildest of tones--"Have you ever rowed in a pond?"
13152Then, who was that butcher- like man whom Ezra was taking down with him?
13152They are for exporting to Europe, and if Europe is already supplied by Russia, where are you to get your market?"
13152They cracked and crumbled beneath her feet, but what would she not dare to see a friendly human face?
13152Three of your men died, I believe?"
13152To whom do these things belong?
13152Tom said dubiously; and then, with a little pang at his heart,"Do you like Ezra Girdlestone too?"
13152Too busy trying to catch yours truly, eh?
13152Vat is it?"
13152Vot is it then?"
13152Vot is to become of de diamond trade ven one can pick them up like cockles on the sea shore?"
13152Was I not right?"
13152Was he, too, under some delusion, or the victim of some conspiracy?
13152Was his word to be depended on under any circumstances?
13152Was it a confirmation of the German''s report, or was it a contradiction of it?
13152Was n''t that a very sad and unaccountable thing?
13152Was this challenge the business upon which you came?"
13152We saw them together at the opera, did n''t we, Kate?"
13152Well, are they gone?"
13152What are the different foramina of the sphenoid bone, and what structures pass through them?
13152What are these words which ring in his ears above the crash of the surf?
13152What are we to do now-- eh?
13152What can be the meaning of this?"
13152What can we do?
13152What can you expect for a Geneva?"
13152What change can time make in either of us?"
13152What could be sadder than that the bread- winner of a family should be cut off?
13152What could be the matter, then?
13152What could he do now to repair the past?
13152What could he have to say to her?
13152What could she do?
13152What could the fast- living, comfort- seeking man about town want in this dreary abode?
13152What d''ye know about her?
13152What d''ye make o''that, Sandy?"
13152What d''ye say to splitting a bottle of Beaune, and paying for it from the common purse?"
13152What d''ye think of it now, when the ship''s settlin''down under our feet, eh?
13152What d''ye think of that?"
13152What deep scheme could these men have invented to keep him away from her during these long weeks?
13152What did you do?"
13152What do you think of John Harston''s daughter?"
13152What do you think of it, dad?"
13152What explanation could there be, then, for his conduct?
13152What fresh villainy was this?
13152What good has he ever done himself?
13152What have you done with it?"
13152What have you done?"
13152What have you to say in answer?"
13152What have you told him that keeps him away?
13152What is all this nonsense about death?
13152What is it I want?"
13152What is it that you want?"
13152What is that in the bottle over there?
13152What is the object of your visit to- day?
13152What shall I do for paper?"
13152What shall I do?
13152What the deuce could cause him to do such a thing?"
13152What the divil can this be?"
13152What was I talking of at all at all?"
13152What was Tom doing now?
13152What was our turn over last month, Gilray?"
13152What was she to do when there?
13152What was the object of this sudden flight from London?
13152What was the object, then, and what was to be the end of this subtle scheming?
13152What was there which she would not do for him?
13152What was to occur then?
13152What will Clutterbuck and the fellows at the club say?
13152What will that matter?
13152What will you bid for it?''
13152What would I not promise which would lead to our earlier union?"
13152What would you do if there should be any hitch and the affair did not come off?
13152What would you do if they were treated as I have been?
13152What''s he a- goin''to do that for?"
13152What''s her name, and where does she come from?"
13152What''s in the common purse, I wonder?"
13152What''s the high bank running along on the right here?"
13152What''s the use of being milk- and- watery about it?"
13152What''s the use of having a good balance at your banker''s, if you do n''t live better than your neighbours?"
13152What''s this dark thing?
13152Whatever will the guests say?
13152When am I to know?"
13152When d''ye want me to start?"
13152When ought we to get to the Downs?"
13152When were her friends coming?
13152Where d''ye think we found him?
13152Where is Miss Harston?"
13152Where was she going?
13152Where''s my servant Pete?
13152Who am I?
13152Who can prevent him?"
13152Who can say now that the days of chivalry are past?"
13152Who did you say your friends were?"
13152Who has an interest in them?
13152Who was it that we carried through the wood and laid upon the rails?"
13152Who was the girl, do you know?"
13152Who was this fellow, and what connexion had he with the matter on hand?
13152Who would be surprised to hear that she had passed away?
13152Who''d have thought then that I should have died like a dog in this wilderness?
13152Why are seamen such improvident dogs?"
13152Why beat about the bush any longer?
13152Why have they left London, and where have they gone to?"
13152Why should I be taken to this horrible, horrible place?"
13152Why should she subject herself to the certainty of constant harshness and unkindness which would await her?
13152Why wo n''t you trust me with it?"
13152Will you be mine, Lavinia?
13152Will you go?"
13152Will you have the hatches off at once?"
13152Will you make the remainder of me life happy by becoming me wife?"
13152With a glad cry she quickened her pace, and in another moment would have been in the high- road, when--"Now then, where are you a- comin''to?"
13152Would it drag him back with it, or could he hold his own?
13152Would it occur to him to do the same in the case of the back door?
13152Would they come boldly up the avenue and claim her from the Girdlestones, or would they endeavour to communicate with her first?
13152Would they never have done examining tickets and stamping luggage and going through all sorts of tedious formalities?
13152Would you cut and run, or would you stand by your colours and pay a shilling or so in the pound?
13152Would you repair her if you had her back in the Albert Dock, eh?"
13152Would you trust them?"
13152You did n''t know Towler, of the Sappers?
13152You did n''t know Willoughby, eh?
13152You did n''t say that, did you?
13152You do n''t dislike me, Kate, do you?"
13152You do n''t know what I mean, do you?
13152You do n''t know what the news was that the man was bringing?"
13152You do n''t mean to say you are paid in proportion to the rottenness of the ships?"
13152You do n''t tell me that he is going to marry Miss Harston?"
13152You do n''t think she has gone out of her mind, do you?"
13152You follow me?"
13152You go up for your first professional in a few weeks, I understand?"
13152You hear me, eh?"
13152You know Tommy of the 81st?
13152You met a man riding towards Jacobsdal, did you not?"
13152You said five hundred pounds?"
13152You shall have that if you will let me through?"
13152You think you could win her if you tried?"
13152You would want the capital of a Rothschild?"
13152You''re not going, are you?"
13152and the lodge- keeper?
13152cried Ezra, with sudden interest;"what''s up?"
13152have you been on''Change already?"
13152he cried;"are they never going to come?"
13152he said, In a wheezy voice,"d''ye think I came five miles to do that?
13152his companion cried with great satisfaction,"it is, is it?
13152roared O''Flaherty, more angrily than ever;"and ca n''t ye foind out that by paying your sixpences like men, and taking the_ Advertoiser_?
13152the merchant began,"is Mr. Dimsdale in the office?"
13152what does he do?
13152what have we here?
13152without the money?"
60001A half million, John?
60001A million?
60001A partner? 60001 About us?
60001Ah, is it so?
60001An''did ye get all that sudden wealth ye was tellin''me about, at all?
60001And beautiful prices?
60001And the country-- the republic-- what will become of it?
60001And the superintendent is going the chorus girl route here or in New York?
60001And they let anybody who is interested come to the meetings-- I''ve been there often-- did I ever tell you? 60001 And write me a check for my fifty thousand to- night?"
60001And you love him, you''ll rob_ me_, you''ll leave_ me_--you''ll-- why, are you all crazy? 60001 And you want me to break up my home''indefinitely''?
60001And you wish you were back there? 60001 And you wo n''t put back the machines?
60001And you''ll allow_ that_, between your wife and my husband?
60001And_ that_ belongs to everybody, not just a few-- to every one-- not just to the rich men, with money to buy what they want?
60001Any man waiting anywhere, Miss Delaware?
60001Are n''t we your real friends?
60001As I was saying, then, since we can both carry it off, why not do so for an hour or so? 60001 As in what particular?"
60001Back!--to that? 60001 Business growing, eh?"
60001But I say--this to Grace--"what makes your fingers so rough, dear?
60001But as fer throwin''her in, how cud we? 60001 But can we?
60001But come on, now,he resumed, as though reluctantly--"I suppose we''ve got to go up there-- Grace--?
60001But how is that somehow? 60001 But how much funds have you of your own?"
60001But how soon, John? 60001 But is n''t this just what you wanted?
60001But now, was there anything in that crazy fool''s newspaper story?
60001But what do you mean?
60001But what has happened, then? 60001 But what is sure-- what can I depend on for Grace?"
60001But what''s_ happened_? 60001 But why choose me?
60001But why wreak ruin on us all? 60001 But you can do it?"
60001But you could n''t expect an ignorant woman to learn it all in one night, could you?
60001But you heard him speak of it first?
60001But you love me-- you can?
60001But, John, why should we? 60001 But, John-- what does it mean?"
60001But-- me? 60001 Ca n''t she be?"
60001Can you talk?
60001Charles,said his intended father- in- law, as they approached the nearest corner,"do you happen to have a quarter left?
60001Could we have a new gate in the picket fence, if the landlord still refused?
60001Did n''t they give you any capital to start with?
60001Did n''t you see me, up there? 60001 Did they?"
60001Did you not divorce her mother-- you, yourself?
60001Did you really come over under power out of one of our overheads?
60001Do I see it-- didn''t you hear me? 60001 Do n''t I know?"
60001Do n''t you know any better than to come here at this time, you people? 60001 Do ye mind_ that_ now?"
60001Do you see that?
60001Do you suppose I can stand for this sort of thing coming from New York?
60001Do you think I could have a silk dress, John?
60001Do you, then?
60001Fer what is the hole in the roof yon?
60001For instance, on the Lady of the Lightnings?
60001For instance?
60001For me?
60001For me?
60001For your sake?
60001Four?
60001Go? 60001 Going strong, is n''t he?"
60001Good pieces? 60001 Halsey-- Charley Halsey of the offices?
60001Happy?--me-- Kelly Row? 60001 Has God come to my aid?
60001Has anny wan broke into th''place?
60001Has anybody got into the works?
60001Has he sold us out?
60001Has n''t he got the nose for news, though?
60001Has n''t she any social instincts?
60001Have I ever said I would n''t? 60001 Have n''t you gone up-- oughtn''t we to go up now-- up- stairs?"
60001Have you anything to say?
60001Have you found that out?
60001Have you got the stock here?
60001Have you laid before them a complete plan, then, Mr. Rawn-- how did you figure it all out so soon? 60001 He has agreed?"
60001He sent you out after me!--With what restrictions--?
60001How can it be? 60001 How did you come across it, John?"
60001How did you know?
60001How do you know? 60001 How do you mean?"
60001How else could I get information?
60001How ever_ did_ you do it?
60001How in the world did you manage it, Mr. Rawn? 60001 How many shares?"
60001How much better off would I be in that case? 60001 How much more, then?"
60001How much was it, then?
60001How much would do you any good, John?
60001How much?
60001How''s that?
60001I do n''t know-- how could I have helped it?
60001I do n''t? 60001 I ought to go?"
60001I presume I look as though I''d spent or could spend a mere fifty thousand dollars or so, do n''t I?
60001I say, that''s pretty good, is n''t it? 60001 I sold out to you, did n''t I, Mr. Rawn-- down there in New York?
60001I suppose you wanted to see some strong man fall on his knees and beg of you?
60001I thought you said this was your own idea?
60001I wonder if I could play one of my old pieces on the piano any more now?
60001I''ll trouble you for that newspaper, if you do n''t mind, Miss--?
60001I''ve taken your wife away from you, ca n''t you understand, you fool? 60001 If this thing works,"said the large, bearded man, leaning forward,"where does it leave railway transportation?"
60001If you do, why do n''t you tell? 60001 In advance?"
60001Indeed?
60001Indeed?
60001Indeed?
60001Is it so? 60001 Is it true?"
60001Is it you?
60001Is it, then? 60001 Is n''t it all right, John?"
60001Is n''t it the truth?
60001Is that all you have to say to me?
60001Is that still the way you feel, Jim?
60001Is there anything wrong?
60001Is there going to be any trouble? 60001 Is there much dissatisfaction down there?"
60001It would hurt my practice-- do you hear?
60001It''s not much like our little seven- room house in the brick block, is it, John?
60001Mollycules? 60001 Mr. Rawn, do you know anything about socialism?"
60001Mr. Rawn, what''s the end of that? 60001 Mr. Rawn,"she began, casting down her eyes, although she allowed him to retain her hand,"what can you mean?
60001New movement!--you''re''progressive,''eh? 60001 Not so bad, eh?"
60001Now why do you want to do that?
60001Now, since these things are true, I just came down here to ask you gentlemen what it is that you want? 60001 Of course, you know,"said Standley, as he seated himself,"that our dissatisfied friend, Van, is here in town to- day?"
60001Of me? 60001 Of what?"
60001Oh, but she''s fresh over-- she''s not American yet, do n''t you see? 60001 Oh, does it, thin?
60001Oh, you know the place?
60001Send me out?
60001Shall I?
60001Shall we use the fan again?
60001She looks somethin''like one o''them drills I used to run in th''tunnel, time Hogan was mayor, do ye mind? 60001 She''ll be our daughter, and wo n''t that be enough?"
60001So that''s it, is it?
60001So you''d have done that if I had asked you?
60001Stand anything more? 60001 Suppose it had come a half inch closer?"
60001Surely, Pa. Why do n''t you hire one?
60001Talk? 60001 That_ would_ be something, would n''t it?
60001The big scene?
60001The central offices will be here, then?
60001The republic? 60001 Then in God''s name why did you not ask me?
60001Then what do you mean?
60001Then why do you stay here? 60001 Then why has Pa talked so?"
60001Then why_ did_ you come? 60001 Then you could n''t use the stenographer on the train-- I mean the regular one?"
60001Then you have got it-- you''ve made the discovery-- it''ll work?
60001Then you have had it-- what have you done with the money?
60001Then you''d have forgotten all your loyalty to those people over there? 60001 Then, what_ do_ you blame, John?"
60001They are not delivered?
60001To everybody?
60001Very well; where shall I go?
60001Want it? 60001 Want to throw her down again, Jim?"
60001We could travel-- could we go over to Europe-- could we take Grace there, John?
60001We''ve got the tariff framed up to suit us, but how long will it last? 60001 Well, how about them, then?"
60001Well, then, what''s it all about, what''s it about? 60001 Well, then?"
60001Well, why_ do n''t_ you burst it, then?
60001Well,said John Rawn,"Halsey-- Charley Halsey-- you remember him, I believe?
60001Well,said Rawn, turning toward him with a frown,"what is it?"
60001Well,said he, turning and sighing,"how''s everything?"
60001Were you working on this yourself, my son?
60001What are you going to do-- you''re not going to sell out to some one else?
60001What business is it of_ yours_?
60001What could I do? 60001 What could he say?"
60001What could you do with the Lady of the Lightnings, Van?
60001What did I say about death and taxes and a woman''s curiosity? 60001 What did I say to him?"
60001What did you do-- how did you handle him, Jennie?
60001What do you know?
60001What do you mean by that?
60001What do you mean, coming here this way?
60001What do you mean-- the truth?
60001What do you mean? 60001 What do you mean?
60001What do you mean? 60001 What do you mean?"
60001What do you mean?
60001What do you mean?
60001What do you mean?
60001What do you mean?
60001What do you mean?
60001What do you say to it, Jim?
60001What do you want me to do, John?
60001What do you want? 60001 What does he_ say_ is the trouble, anyway?
60001What earthly good will that do? 60001 What is a-- a corollary, John?"
60001What is it, Jim?
60001What is it, John?
60001What is it, John?
60001What is it-- a patent car coupler? 60001 What is the truth about it?
60001What makes her go?
60001What possible ground could Mr. Ackerman have had? 60001 What would you expect?
60001What''s she for, do ye think now?
60001What''s that you said about_ money_?
60001What''s that, Grace?
60001What''s that?
60001What''s that?
60001What''s the difference?
60001What''s the distinguishing thing about life to- day, my dear-- the thing that makes it different from that of the past?
60001What''s the good word this morning?
60001What''s the matter out there with you?
60001What''s the trouble?
60001What''s the truth about the row, Van?
60001What''s this about, Halsey?
60001What''s wrong over at that factory, Charley?
60001What''s wrong with him?
60001What''s wrong, Jim?
60001What_ right_ had you to think it?
60001Whatever kind of a spook joint is this, anyhow, Jim?
60001When do you want me to go?
60001Where do we stand?
60001Where is she?
60001Where will you get it?
60001Who has, then?
60001Who is he?
60001Who knows how much power there is in the water of even one big river? 60001 Why did n''t Rawn tell us, then?"
60001Why did n''t you ask me to save you this humiliation?
60001Why did n''t you finish your work as you promised?
60001Why did n''t you?
60001Why did n''t you?
60001Why did you start this, then? 60001 Why do n''t people come here to see you?"
60001Why do n''t you write to Mrs. Rawn and ask her for the recipe?
60001Why do you say that? 60001 Why does n''t he, then, Mrs. Sullivan?
60001Why have n''t you made good before this? 60001 Why is n''t it fair?
60001Why not join in with us and break the bonehead?
60001Why not now?
60001Why not-- Virginia?
60001Why not?
60001Why wo n''t they?
60001Why would n''t they, John? 60001 Why, what''s the matter, Laura?"
60001Why-- where it meant ruin?
60001Why?
60001Why?
60001Win what?
60001Wo n''t she? 60001 Would I?
60001Yes, it is; how about it, gentlemen?
60001Yes; have you?
60001Yes? 60001 Yes?
60001Yes?
60001Yes?
60001Yes?
60001You begin to see some of the practical results of your infernal socialistic ideas, do n''t you, then? 60001 You begin to think that after all I''ll do something for us both?
60001You could n''t quite take care of them all, eh?
60001You did_ what_?
60001You do n''t know them?
60001You get_ that_--when you succeed?
60001You have done-- what?
60001You know that person? 60001 You mean apiece?"
60001You never told? 60001 You seem to mean almost what I mean, when I talked with you long ago--""Do you think so?"
60001You think they never will be? 60001 You told him, what?"
60001You want my resignation now?
60001You want to have it within your ability to influence men, just as I do, do n''t you, Miss Delaware? 60001 You want to work for_ man_, do you?
60001You were dressing to go down to dinner?
60001You were sewing-- for_ us_?
60001You will go back-- you will go back to the factory, in the morning? 60001 You''d have done it, would n''t you, Charley-- for me?"
60001You''d sell us out?
60001You''re fair grievin''for your wife, I suppose? 60001 You_ love_ her?
60001Your house, for instance?
60001_ Did you get the current?_he demanded.
60001_ Do n''t_ you-- don''t you all?
60001_ Others_, eh?
60001''Tis fine, is n''t it?
60001A mollycule in a glass jar-- what''d it get you?
60001A needle roughens up one''s finger in spite of a thimble, do n''t you know?"
60001About all they could say to me at the end of an hour or so was''How much?''
60001About what?"
60001After that--""And after_ that_, John?"
60001Ai n''t it the truth, Mr. Halsey?
60001Ai n''t it the truth?
60001Ai n''t it the truth?
60001Ai n''t it the truth?"
60001Ai n''t that what ivery woman in the wurrld, at laste in America, is wantin''?"
60001And did there not remain that same cool distant figure from whom he had so constantly to wrench his eyes-- and his heart?
60001And if God do n''t give it, have n''t such as us just got to_ take_ it?--I do n''t mean the asparagus, but just the potaties?"
60001And if he does need money, why--"V"What do you mean, Laura?"
60001And is it the truth that he''s got the overhead current?"
60001And is not the quest of beauty the first business of him who has attained power?
60001And is not this America?
60001And now you say you''d never be happy if I left you now, to- night--""Then why go, so long as we are so confused?
60001And shall we blame the stock- holders for being impatient at renewed delays?
60001And the woman who would do that--?"
60001And when I saw that you-- that even you''d sell out for_ me_--why, where was the good, clean thing left in all the world?
60001Are n''t you a Socialist at heart?
60001Are they going to kick me out of their offices?
60001Are you happy?"
60001At last she said, hesitating, and holding up the flaming pendant,"I''m not to keep them?"
60001At what day or hour of a child''s life does the consciousness of human values in affairs first impinge upon the embryonic mentality?
60001Besides, what''s the use of a tariff, if we''re going to have strikes that practically are riots and revolutions, all over the country?
60001But can you keep on putting this over with these people?"
60001But did it ever occur to you that as you stand there now, and as I stand here, we might pass in that crowd below there and not be known by_ any one_?"
60001But has this man anything in the real goods, and if so, what would you suggest?"
60001But how are we going to get in on the killing if there is n''t any stock to be had, and if it is n''t listed so the public can be got in?"
60001But how can we do that?
60001But it did n''t give him his money-- he''s only made dividend money out of that; and who cares for dividend money?
60001But the truth is, Mr. Rawn is not what a good many think he is--"VII"Do you think that''s news to me?"
60001But vat do ve get?
60001But was anybody hurt?"
60001But what chance have I?"
60001But what does it amount to?
60001But what does my wife say?
60001But what were you saying?"
60001But what would you suggest, for instance, for my large central room, which opens out upon the lake?"
60001But what''s the use?
60001But where does she_ git_ it?"
60001But where''ll I get them?
60001But who wants it?
60001But why should you expict anny woman to stay here whin she has such a Pa, with such a house as her Pa has?"
60001CHAPTER IX WHAT CHEER OF THE HARVEST?
60001CHAPTER V MEANS TO AN END I"Well, he''s gone, then?"
60001Ca n''t I take you higher yet than where you are now?''
60001Ca n''t you almost smell it, touch it, taste it?
60001Ca n''t you fall into line at_ all_?"
60001Ca n''t you right your_ own_ wrongs, the first minute you get ready to do it, I''d like to know?
60001Can you think of anything I''ll not get for you?
60001Charley, can we?"
60001Charley--""But why did n''t you?"
60001Could I go into the country once in a while, where things are green?"
60001Could a man doubt his eyes?
60001Could any hero of his years have acted with a finer, a larger generosity?
60001Could it be possible that this man in time would own a large part of this railway and of others?
60001Did any of you form a company for the perpetual sale of something that''s everlasting and that do n''t cost anything?
60001Did he hand you out any of this talk about the rights of man?
60001Did he not see envious eyes bent upon his companion and upon himself?
60001Did n''t I just get done telling him I''d make him rich the minute he said the word?"
60001Did n''t I see you both just now?
60001Did n''t I?"
60001Did n''t Rawn tell you_ that_?"
60001Did n''t both of you come up from clerking?
60001Did n''t you see?"
60001Did n''t you want this-- just this?"
60001Did n''t you-- right now-- haven''t you_ got_ to come across now?
60001Did you ever stop to think of that?"
60001Did you ever stop to think, Charles, that you owe your place in life to her?"
60001Did you ever stop to think, Mr. Rawn, how helpless, how hopeless, we really are, we women?"
60001Did you manage to hold things together-- will he let up?"
60001Do n''t they cling to it, all of them-- till they get old?
60001Do n''t you know how wrong it is to talk in that way?
60001Do n''t you know?
60001Do n''t you remember?
60001Do n''t you see it all around you, do n''t you feel it?
60001Do n''t you see, Mrs. Rawn, it''s all like a faulty conclusion in logic?
60001Do n''t your ears burn?"
60001Do you expect to settle all this in a half- hour''s time, in a passion of anger?
60001Do you get me, gentlemen?''
60001Do you know how much these cost?"
60001Do you know that everything we''ve got in the world is up at stake on this?
60001Do you know what I paid for what you''ve got in your hand, Laura?
60001Do you think it could have been my father''s old ideas coming out in me, so late?
60001Do you want me to walk across the street?''"
60001Do you want to do that?"
60001Do you want to go up with the Rawns, or stay down with the Halseys of this world?
60001Do you, gentlemen?"
60001Do you?"
60001Does it mind that potaties costs more than they did, and so pay us better, or worse, for what we do?
60001Er-- Mr. Rawn, do you happen to have any present need for any money-- personally?"
60001Fine, is n''t it?
60001Fine, is n''t it?"
60001For instance, what did all the work of your professors-- what- d''ye- call-''ems-- amount to?
60001For me?
60001For one thing, I could buy back my wife?"
60001For the company?
60001For what?
60001Gentlemen, are you ready to see the gold brick?
60001Got that bee?
60001Had he not seen-- was it not there before his eyes?
60001Halsey-- Charley-- agreed?--Have you persuaded him to--""You wish to know, whether I have done what I was told to do-- is that it?"
60001Halsey?"
60001Has n''t God got a place fer us, as well as Mr. Rawn?
60001Has n''t she done what I told her to do; what she said she''d do?
60001Have n''t I been a friend to him; have n''t I got a lot of friends of my own?"
60001Have n''t you always resented the success of others, deprecated the wish of some men to get money at any cost?
60001Have n''t you got heads of your own?
60001Have n''t you got votes of your own?
60001Have n''t you?"
60001Have they made you happy?
60001Have you come here to twit me with it?
60001Have you earned all this-- in a year or so?
60001Have you no regard for a poor girl who is trying to make her way in the world?
60001Have you stopped to think of that?
60001Have you?"
60001He does n''t own control in the Guatemala Oil Company, does he?
60001He''s going in for the uplift stunt, eh?
60001He''s made a big killing in Rubber, but he does n''t own any Rubber control of his own, does he?
60001He''s made a lot out of Arizona and Utah coppers, but he does n''t own control in a single company there, does he?
60001Her face-- it looks like the goddess on some stock certificate I''ve seen--""Indeed?"
60001How are they going to eat?
60001How can I do things for you if that''s the way you feel?
60001How can we fail to join him in that belief?
60001How could Halsey be secured?
60001How could I want anything which meant harm for_ you_?
60001How could he set matters right without discovering his own ignorance?
60001How could they be distinguished from other and less preferred articles of furnishing?
60001How did I drive my car over here, charged from one of our overhead motors?
60001How did we get it, John?--when we worked so long, so many years, and lived just like those others there?
60001How did you manage that?
60001How did-- is there anything I can do for you?"
60001How do you know I have n''t made good?"
60001How long before you''re going to be married?"
60001How many millions of horses and men has it equalled in its wasted power in each generation, in each decade, in each year?
60001How much would you need, Mr. Rawn, to take care of you for the next few days that you require for this work?"
60001How will I find them?
60001How would I look decked out in things like that?
60001I followed that dance of the atoms on out-- into the universe-- into the manifestation of--""Well, of what?"
60001I just dressed up-- to-- to--""Just to look at yourself in the mirror, is n''t that it, Miss Delaware?"
60001I just thought--""Well, Laura, what was it that you just thought?
60001I kept away from you, so that you would n''t, so that we_ couldn''t_--so that I''d always feel that_ you_, at least--""Where can it end?"
60001I married you, did n''t I?
60001I often wonder-- does money really make people happy?
60001I suppose we mean porcelains?"
60001I told her to bring you back to us again, and she''s done it, has n''t she?
60001II Who shall measure the power of a river, for ever falling to the sea?
60001II"_ You_--Mr. Rawn?
60001III Where gat this silent partner of John Rawn''s its own tremendous power?
60001III"Are you going to sell us out, Charley?"
60001III"Well, boys, why not admit it?"
60001IV"But tell me, Mr. Halsey,"she went on shrewdly,"how long will we be havin''even potaties to eat?
60001If our men starve, what''ll we do?
60001If she had sought for some strong man to sweep her from her calm, why was she now so calm?
60001If she has money, ca n''t she?"
60001If we ca n''t both travel the same gait, whose gait ought to govern?
60001If we did n''t leave a hole in the roof how could the river get through?
60001If we take you all in and if you all stand pat, what chance has any one else got, except through buying power of us?
60001If you ca n''t go forward, ought I to go back?
60001If you have that secret in your hands, why, do n''t you see-- don''t you_ see_--""What do you mean?"
60001If you please, where shall I drive?"
60001If you took along your assistant-- Miss Delaware, I suppose?"
60001Is it not true?"
60001Is it right for me to be dragged down by your own limitations-- ought I to stop in my own career to conform to that?
60001Is it worse for us than it was for you?
60001Is n''t it true?
60001Is n''t that about what all women want?
60001Is n''t that success, so far as a woman is concerned?
60001Is n''t that the height and limit of their ambition?
60001Is n''t that the truth?
60001Is n''t there a_ million dollars_ lying right in front of you on that table?
60001Is n''t there the proof?
60001Is that not the dream and test of power-- to secure what others may not have, to secure special privileges in this life?
60001Is that the truth, boy?"
60001Is there anything too good for us?"
60001Is there anything you want to do?
60001Is there anywhere you want to go?
60001It''s a fine world, is n''t it?
60001It''s easy, is n''t it?"
60001It''s like a thread of moonlight, is n''t it?
60001John Rawn made characteristic answer:"How much is your stock worth, in your opinion, Van?"
60001John Rawn, collector-- what man on all the North Shore Drive at that moment could claim such surroundings as these?
60001Just where and how was Rawn twenty times as valuable as himself, when all the time it had been he.--But then, what matter?
60001Keep matters as they are until I have time to think-- won''t you do that much-- just that little-- for me?"
60001Kill me, and what is there left?
60001Laura, look at me-- didn''t I always tell you so-- didn''t I know?"
60001Leave_ me_?
60001Money?
60001Not even for me?"
60001Now do you understand what I mean?
60001Now do you understand?"
60001Now, do you want a nice gold fence around the world with diamond tips to the pickets; or what is it that you do want?
60001Now, then, tell me, why did you tog out this way?"
60001Of duty-- to what and to whom?
60001Of what sort?"
60001Oh, a pair of braces, eh?
60001One day in New York ought to do us, ought it not?"
60001Rawn?"
60001Rawn?"
60001Rawn?"
60001Rawn?"
60001Rawn?"
60001Rawn?"
60001Rawn?"
60001Rawn?"
60001Rawn?"
60001Rawn?"
60001Rawn?"
60001Rawn?"
60001Rawn?"
60001Rawn?"
60001Rawn?"
60001Rawn?"
60001Shall I go and get my own work to show you?"
60001She had his one enemy netted, in her power-- there-- had he not seen?
60001She said that-- I heard her-- to me?
60001She surely does shine like the bright and morning star, the way she''s illuminated-- eh, what?"
60001She''s going to marry me as soon--""_ Jennie_!--what''s this fellow talking about?"
60001Since he and his wife lacked judgment in such matters, what was the remedy?
60001Since these things are true, are you coming back to me?"
60001Something--"[ Illustration:( Virginia and Halsey)]"I''ve been here in the house waiting-- why did you not call me?"
60001Sullivan?"
60001Surely you do not understand--""Understand?
60001Tell me, when does it come, John?"
60001That is, what_ was_ it?"
60001That''s fine, is n''t it?
60001That''s good news to tell me, is n''t it?
60001That''s what was in your soul when you stood before your mirror there when I came in, was n''t it, Miss Delaware?
60001That''s what your idea means, then?
60001That''s why I asked you how soon-- tell me, have they really raised your salary, John?
60001That''s your success?"
60001The people?
60001Then suddenly,"You do n''t tell me-- you do n''t mean that--?
60001There would n''t be one chance in many of our being seen by any one here who knew either of us, and if so, what harm?
60001They had paid-- but what right had they to love, so late?
60001They have_ their_ salaries, but what do such sums count with men of real genius in affairs?
60001They loved, but what could love do for them, so late?
60001They''re rather strange things, do n''t you think?
60001To live in that hole--?"
60001V"My share?
60001VI"Is it a big company?"
60001VII"And about Grace--?"
60001VII"Did they take it easy?"
60001VII"Is it true?"
60001VII"Well, what does he want?"
60001VIII"What was it?"
60001Was he not a leader-- had he not been devised to be so in the plans of the immortal gods, ages ago?
60001Was he not one of the few select ones assigned to rule his fellow- men?
60001Was he not the minister''s son?
60001Was n''t he married to Rawn''s daughter?"
60001Was n''t that your dream-- isn''t that what you were imagining, as you stood there and looked in your glass?"
60001Was there not daily proof before her eyes?
60001Was_ that_ what made your hands so rough, yours and Mrs. Rawn''s yonder?
60001We read about things, but what do we know about them?
60001We''re married, why?
60001We''ve always moved on up-- or thought we did, anyhow-- so why should n''t we keep on moving, keep on making discoveries?"
60001Well, I''d like to ask you, Laura, if I have n''t earned this, what man ever_ did_ earn his money?"
60001Well, it looks as though we had settled a few questions, does n''t it?"
60001Well, then, have we all got cards?"
60001Were n''t we all in that-- didn''t we all help, from the very first?
60001What I want to know is, what he''s got against us, anyhow, Jennie?"
60001What about it?
60001What appeal, then, physical, emotional, moral, could she make to him-- a student, a visionary, an idealist-- at such a moment?
60001What are they going to do then?
60001What are we getting in return?
60001What are you talking about?
60001What business was it of his?
60001What can that mean, now?
60001What can the muckrakers do toward stopping men like that?
60001What could I buy with it?
60001What did I tell you a while ago?
60001What did he do to my mother?
60001What did you think I meant?"
60001What difference about the rest of the world if you take care of_ yourself_?
60001What difference about the union if I''m your sort?"
60001What difference does it make?
60001What do I get out of life, when it comes to that, Grace?
60001What do I hear?
60001What do I owe_ you_, that I have to listen to you?"
60001What do we owe to him and_ her_?
60001What do you mean by that, Laura?
60001What do you mean, after all?"
60001What do you mean, young man?"
60001What do you mean?
60001What do you mean?
60001What do you mean?
60001What do you mean?
60001What do you mean?"
60001What do you mean?"
60001What do you mean?"
60001What do you say, Miss Delaware?
60001What do you say, Miss Delaware?"
60001What do you see?
60001What do you want, gentlemen?
60001What happens?"
60001What has happened?"
60001What has n''t Mr. Rawn done for you?
60001What have I done for you?
60001What have I done to deserve this?
60001What have you got there, Mrs. Rawn-- something in silk?
60001What hope for him, Charles Halsey, for whom was no place in the world?
60001What ice does it cut?"
60001What is it, Jennie?"
60001What is it?
60001What is it?
60001What is there left to understand?
60001What matter if the one woman, was his wife, Virginia Rawn?
60001What might they have to hope for, more than for each other?
60001What mind can measure the extent of such a force, or dream the possibilities of its application, if it could be set to work?
60001What miracles ever equaled the business wonders, the money- piling miracles, of the last twenty years in America?
60001What more can a rich man do than that same?
60001What more could any man desire than that?
60001What more is there to seek?
60001What use has a mollycule and a drop of oil in a glass jar got in actual business?
60001What was it?
60001What was it?"
60001What was to be lost save that which he, John Rawn, was losing-- or had been about to lose?
60001What would we all have thought of such speed ten or twelve years ago?
60001What would you expect of two ill- paid clerks, twenty- nine and twenty- five years of age?
60001What would you say to that?"
60001What''s it about, Mr. Halsey?
60001What''s left?
60001What''s the difference?"
60001What''s the ind of it, me boy?
60001What''s the logical conclusion?"
60001What''s the meaning of all this talk, anyhow?
60001What''s the use in misleading the laboring man and making him think he''s going to get something he ca n''t get?
60001What''s the use talking about the rights of the average man?
60001What''s the use?
60001What''s up now-- some trouble with a woman?
60001What, then, lacked?
60001What_ is_ that second current?
60001What_ is_ this republic?
60001When I tell them that I can wipe out all this enormous industrial waste that has been going on in power, what are they going to say to me?
60001When did the average man ever start or stop a revolutionary idea?
60001When does the riveting begin?"
60001When you stop to think about it, has n''t he been a menace to the prosperity of this country?"
60001Where are you going?"
60001Where did they get it?
60001Where do I live?
60001Where do you stand yourself?"
60001Where does your wife come in?"
60001Where would you have stopped, to get money, to get power?
60001Where''d I be without you, I wonder now?
60001Where''d he get it?
60001Where''d you get that gown?"
60001Where''s Jim Sullivan?
60001Where''s Tim Carney?
60001Where''s any of you men that used to work with me there in the factory?
60001Which of us can tell what is in an infant''s mind?
60001Who are you, anyway?"
60001Who can read the plans of the immortal gods?
60001Who gave him both of those things?--Why, we did, did n''t we?
60001Who is she?"
60001Who told you, John?"
60001Who was to take care of_ me_, I''d like to know?
60001Who''s going to pay for his house?
60001Who''s to blame for your troubles?
60001Who, asked Laura Rawn, devout Christian, can foresee the plans of a Divine Providence?
60001Who_ is_ happy?
60001Whut woman of anny social position has not got her awtomo_beel_ to- day?
60001Why blame him?
60001Why could n''t we get together-- and together get the public?"
60001Why did Virginia remain aloof?
60001Why did he dream of the birds and the sunshine?
60001Why did n''t you make me love you first-- long ago?
60001Why did not John Rawn naturally trend toward violence, why did the frontier not call out to him?
60001Why did they come?
60001Why did you bring me here, Mr. Rawn?
60001Why did you let me know?"
60001Why do I stand talking about such things?
60001Why do n''t he tell_ me_?"
60001Why do n''t you come back to me?"
60001Why do n''t you come out and tell me the truth, John?
60001Why do n''t you get busy with that fan?"
60001Why do n''t you use your brains, Charles?
60001Why do n''t you wait?
60001Why fight it?
60001Why not get on the right side, instead of the wrong side of the world?
60001Why not trail in with the main bunch, if that''s where the money is?"
60001Why not try it?"
60001Why pay rent?"
60001Why should I?"
60001Why should he, John Rawn, be allowed to become conscious of a feeling of lonesomeness?
60001Why should he, a man of his attainments, lack in any degree what others had?
60001Why should the ambition of either leap beyond what was there present, in its own comprehensible world?
60001Why should they not keep on meeting day after day, after supper?
60001Why should we part?
60001Why should we think?
60001Why, then, his pipe cold in his teeth, did he sit staring now and think of things altogether apart from the factory?
60001Why, then, should she be unhappy?
60001Will you please initial it?
60001With me?
60001Wo n''t you have a cigar?"
60001Would that be right, now, Laura, for a man like me?--Is it right for any man?
60001Would you like to be part of it?
60001Would you like to look at the little joker, or see if you can find the pea under the shell?
60001Would you tell him to have it at the door in fifteen minutes?
60001Would you?
60001You did n''t know that?
60001You do that for a woman, and what does she say?
60001You folks on the International have been having your own troubles with labor, have n''t you?"
60001You make a move now-- say a word-- and I''ll wring your neck, do you hear?"
60001You must know, as we all do, what a keen search there has been made by capitalists all over the country for water power sites?
60001You surely do n''t think he could have spoken to any one else?"
60001You want to win, to succeed, to triumph, do n''t you, Miss Delaware-- you''ve got_ ambition_?
60001You will help me pull it together, wo n''t you?"
60001You will, wo n''t you, dear?"
60001You wonder at these things?
60001You''d have forgotten all, everything, for_ me_?"
60001You''ll go back to work to- morrow?
60001You''re ambitious?
60001You''re going to try to hold me up?"
60001[ Illustration:( Rawn and Virginia)] V"Do you know,"she said at length, slowly,"these are things that never came to my mind in all my life?
60001_ Give_ it away, eh?
60001_ I_ a salary-- what did I make?
60001_ I_ brought you this, did n''t I?
60001_ Money?_"He threw out his hands.
60001_ What''s the mystery there, boy?_""A good deal of labor troubles,"commented Halsey non- committally.
60001_ What''s_ the company?"
60001_ What_ do you think you see?"
60001damn you, girl, what are you_ talking_ about-- wives and husbands?--what''s that to do with this?
60001gasped John Rawn--"I have n''t_ earned_ it?
60001he broke out,"ca n''t you say anything?
60001he cried--"Jennie-- he fouled me-- but do n''t let him go-- he''ll ruin us, do you hear?"
60001if that were true-- of course it ca n''t be true-- what would there be left for the average man?
60001said he, feigning indifference,"some pretty good ones, eh?"
60001said she, smiling;"I suppose now we can learn all about our earlier life and career?"
60001she asked anxiously"What else should I get?"
60001she said, turning to him;"can you talk?"
154A good thing? 154 A note for me?"
154About what I done? 154 Afraid?"
154Ah, but what did they think?
154Ah, is that so?
154An explanation, then?
154An understanding? 154 And do you ever have any regrets?"
154And do you suppose he knew the G. L.& P. wanted the mills when he turned them in on you?
154And do you think I found it easy with him? 154 And do you think that I am going to steal these men''s money to help you plunder somebody in a new scheme?"
154And does that make him any better?
154And if he do n''t use his privileges, do you think he''ll be a fit person to manage your paint in South America?
154And in the drawing- room?
154And in the other rooms?
154And the self- sacrifice painted in most novels like this----"Slop, Silly Slop?
154And then he would n''t stay?
154And what about the stairs?
154And what do you expect me to do?
154And what?
154And yet she is a sensible girl, your daughter?
154And you do n''t suppose it was any sort of-- personal consideration?
154And you say, Mr. Lapham, that you discovered this mineral paint on the old farm yourself?
154And you say,suggested Bartley,"that you stayed right along on the old place, when the rest cleared out West?"
154And you told him-- you owned up to him that you were in the wrong, Silas?
154And you want I should see him?
154And you would like a rich daughter- in- law, quite regardless, then?
154And-- look me in the eyes!--you have n''t got anything else on your mind now?
154Any barefoot business? 154 Any more big- bugs wanting to go into the mineral paint business with you?"
154Anything hard?
154Anything the matter with Bill''s folks?
154Apollinaris?
154Are you-- are you engaged to him, Pen?
154As if you were never to see me again? 154 Ask HER?"
154At Nantasket?
154Avoided you?
154Ball?
154Book?
154But Tom seemed to like her flavour, such as it was?
154But anything short of it?
154But do n''t you think it will be the best thing, Bromfield?
154But even if you choose to dispute my claim, what has become of all the heroism? 154 But how will that help her?
154But if there were?
154But perhaps you have n''t got two minutes to give me?
154But what good will it do her? 154 But where could they have thought your eyes were-- your taste?
154But why should n''t civil service reform, and the resumption of specie payment, and a tariff for revenue only, inspire heroes? 154 But''ow much time?"
154Buy it?
154Ca n''t I set you down somewhere, Mr. Hubbard? 154 Ca n''t you guess?"
154Ca n''t you see? 154 Can I be of any use to you, Mrs. Lapham?
154Can I make it easier by disobeying you?
154Can I? 154 Can you be natural with me?"
154Come for? 154 Commonplace?
154Corey? 154 Did HE want to borrow some money too?"
154Did he speed her?
154Did he?
154Did it seem to convince him?
154Did n''t I tell you she did n''t mean anything by it? 154 Did n''t you think he looked very nice?"
154Did she say anything, about me?
154Did she-- did your sister-- think that too?
154Did you ever know me to do anything out of the way?
154Did you ever see much nicer girls anywhere?
154Did you know it when you turned the property in on me? 154 Did you like his nose?"
154Did you notice that fellow at the desk facing my type- writer girl? 154 Did you see him?"
154Did you suppose,she asked at last,"that that young Corey had been coming to see Irene?"
154Did you tell Bill how you stood?
154Did you tell her that if I went in with you and those fellows, I should be robbing the people who trusted them?
154Did you tell him father was n''t at home?
154Did you-- did-- did you think so too-- that it was IRENE I meant?
154Disgusting? 154 Do any of us?"
154Do n''t I tell you,he gasped,"that I do n''t want to know them?
154Do n''t I? 154 Do n''t he ever say anything to you about her-- praise her up, any?"
154Do n''t they have everything they want? 154 Do n''t you feel like a moral wreck, Miss Kingsbury?"
154Do n''t you like Shakespeare''s plays?
154Do n''t you suppose I feel as you do about it? 154 Do n''t you suppose she''ll be up in time?
154Do n''t you-- don''t you REALLY? 154 Do n''t you?
154Do n''t you?
154Do n''t you?
154Do you ask me to profit by a wrong?
154Do you believe me when I tell you that I love you?
154Do you blame me, Silas?
154Do you know how warm it is out- of- doors?
154Do you know them? 154 Do you know what your father''s wanting to do now?"
154Do you like that Rosamond Vincy?
154Do you like to read books over?
154Do you mean he did n''t come?
154Do you mean that it''s all over with you?
154Do you mean that you''ve got payments to make, and that people are not paying YOU?
154Do you really feel so, Bromfield?
154Do you really feel so, Bromfield?
154Do you really think so, Bromfield?
154Do you really think so?
154Do you suppose I could see your uncle at his office?
154Do you suppose I want to go on my own account?
154Do you think I could love you if you had been false to her? 154 Do you think it amounts to a dinner?"
154Do you think it would be pleasant to have you on my side against your mother?
154Do you think it''s really going to be a trial to him?
154Do you think she''ll stand with that?
154Do you think so?
154Do you think so?
154Do you think,she asked simply,"that he got the idea you cared for him?"
154Do you want I should call a hack, or do you want I should call an officer?
154Do you want ME to go to Irene and tell her that I''ve got him away from her?
154Do you want him to hear EVERY thing? 154 Do you want to kill me, Irene?"
154Do you want to leave?
154Do you want to raise the house? 154 Do you wish us to go with you again?"
154Does Irene talk about me?
154Does he think I''m going to jump at a chance to get in with him, if he gives me one? 154 Does n''t he come?"
154Down?
154Fatted calf business?
154Gambling? 154 Gay, ai n''t she?"
154General Lapham?
154Girl in my office?
154Give you a character?
154Had n''t you better put it in water,''Rene? 154 Had they knowledge enough to be ashamed of their ignorance?"
154Has Colonel Lapham returned yet?
154Has HE been speaking to you?
154Has he been out long?
154Has he been speaking to you, father?
154Has he been suggesting it in any way?
154Have I been crying?
154Have a cigar?
154Have a trestle?
154Have you been talking about your business with Mr. Lapham all night?
154Have you got some new light?
154Have you, Tom?
154He been about any?
154He came over, and sat down on the trestle alongside of me----"What? 154 He is n''t American, though?"
154He thinks it would be a good plan for you?
154He''s coming here to see ME----"When''s he coming?
154Her giving him up to the other one?
154How came he to come down with you?
154How came he to come? 154 How can I tell?
154How can I tell? 154 How can you expect people who have been strictly devoted to business to be grammatical?
154How do I know? 154 How do you do, sir?"
154How do you know the fellow sent it, anyway?
154How do you think I am going to take you on?
154How does their new house get on?
154How much of a one?
154How should I know?
154How soon?
154How would it do to let Irene and your mother stick in the old place here, and us go into the new house?
154How''re you going to stop him? 154 How''s Pen?"
154How?
154Humorous?
154I did n''t know you had seen him?
154I guess we better all go, had n''t we?
154I hope you hain''t been paying any attention to that fellow''s stuff in the Events?
154I presume you''ll want Eastlake mantel- shelves and tiles?
154I presume,he said,"you''ll have the drawing- room finished in black walnut?"
154I suppose I could get on with the paint----"But not with the princess? 154 I suppose you''ve all helped to plan it?"
154I want to know if this is the way you''re goin''back on me and Z''rilla?
154I?
154If he has n''t been coming to see her, what HAS he been coming for?
154If some one had come to you, Mrs. Lapham, in just this perplexity, what would you have thought?
154If there is anything I can do-- telegraph Colonel Lapham, or anything?
154In stocks? 154 Intellectual?"
154Is Mr. Lapham in?
154Is Mrs. Lapham well? 154 Is Mrs. Rogers with you?"
154Is he coming here?
154Is he in trouble? 154 Is he really in such a bad way?"
154Is it a new one?
154Is it anything you can tell me about, Silas?
154Is it possible? 154 Is n''t it somewhere up in that region that they get the old Brandon red?"
154Is n''t there something they give you to make you sleep?
154Is she as delicate as ever?
154Is that her way of showing her gratitude? 154 Is that so, Persis?"
154Is that so? 154 Is that so?
154Is that so?
154Is that so?
154Is that so?
154Is there any one else?
154Is this all, then? 154 Is this your answer?"
154Is your head any better,''Rene?
154It wo n''t change anything? 154 Jam?
154Kentucky?
154Leave?
154MRS. B. Hubbard, heigh?
154Mamma,said Irene, when she was hurrying their departure the next morning,"what did she tell him when he asked her?"
154Mother been telling you? 154 Mother, do you think I ought to let Mr. Corey know that I know about it?"
154NOW are you satisfied?
154New what?
154No, is it warm? 154 No?
154No?
154Oh, do you think he would, if I came again?
154Oh, have they?
154Oh, he DID give it to you, then? 154 Oh, indeed?"
154Oh, is THAT it?
154Oh, the question is, will HE like?
154Oh, well, if you say he has n''t, what''s the use of my telling you who?
154Oh, what have you done?
154Oh, what is it, Bartley?
154Oh, would you-- WOULD you? 154 Oh, you did, did you?"
154Oh, you would, would you?
154One suffer instead of three, if none is to blame?
154Paint it?
154Paint?
154Papa,she asked,"you do n''t really mean that you''re going to build over there?"
154Pen,she broke out,"what do you suppose he means by it?"
154Penelope?
154Perhaps it''s too warm for you here?
154Perhaps you do n''t approve of playing with shavings?
154Plain? 154 Pretty strong, eh?"
154Right thing to do, wa''n''t it?
154Right? 154 Seem struck up on Irene?"
154She has told him of your terrible behaviour when you called before?
154She''s up there in the country with your mother yet?
154Silas Lapham, if you was to die the next minute, is this what you started to tell me?
154Silas,she asked, after a long gaze at him,"why did n''t you tell me you had Jim Millon''s girl there?"
154Smoke?
154So much more serious? 154 So that''s young Corey, is it?"
154So you want another partner after all?
154Solemn?
154Sure you never made up to any one else at the same time?
154Tell him?
154That his room, Z''rilla?
154That was it?
154That your husband?
154The elder sister? 154 Then she is more intellectual than her sister?"
154Then the pretty one is n''t the father''s pet?
154Then what makes him keep coming?
154Then why do n''t you sell to me? 154 Then why does n''t he tell us?"
154Then why should n''t I think all the more of you on account of your father''s loss? 154 Then you did n''t find her so amusing as Tom does?"
154Then you do n''t think a dinner would do?
154Then you think it has n''t come to an understanding with them yet?
154Then, were you thinking of having your parlours together, connected by folding doors?
154They''re always so, ai n''t they?
154Think it was some kind of infernal machine?
154Thought you said you were satisfied?
154To Lapham? 154 Tom,"cried his mother,"why do you think Mr. Lapham has taken you into business so readily?
154Tom,he said,"where did you get such good clothes?"
154Travel? 154 Truly, Si?
154WHAT''s the reason the girls never get down to breakfast any more?
154Want I should come down and talk with you?
154Want me to build on it?
154Want to send any word home?
154Was I drunk?
154Was Pen there?
154Was it very pert?
154Was n''t it a relief to have mamma come down, even if she did seem to be all stocking at first?
154Was there anything much more impressive afterward? 154 Was there ever any poor creatures in such a strait before?"
154Well, I dunno,suggested Lapham, after a moment;"why not talk to the minister of your church?
154Well, Pers,he demanded,"what do you say now?"
154Well, and what are your inferences?
154Well, and what then?
154Well, do n''t you think something of that kind would have a very nice effect? 154 Well, if the road wants them, do n''t that make the mills valuable?
154Well, is that my fault? 154 Well, mother,"said the girl after a pause, in which she looked as if a little weary of the subject,"why do you worry about it?
154Well, mother?
154Well, suppose I go with you, then?
154Well, that''s your fault, ai n''t it? 154 Well, then, had n''t you better write in the morning, as soon as you''re up, that she ai n''t coming?"
154Well, then, what''s the difference?
154Well, what do you want, Zerrilla?
154Well, what is it, Silas?
154Well, who''s ever done more for their children than we have?
154Well,demanded her husband, at their first meeting after her interview with their son,"what did you say to Tom?"
154Well?
154Well?
154Well?
154Well?
154What DID he want, then?
154What DO you want to talk about? 154 What DO you want?"
154What about Irene? 154 What are they doing now?"
154What are you after, Persis?
154What are you doing around here?
154What are you doing it for, mother?
154What are you drivin''at?
154What are you going to do this afternoon?
154What are you going to do?
154What are you making such a fuss about?
154What are you making this bother for, then?
154What chance?
154What could I say? 154 What did he come for?"
154What did she do?
154What did you do?
154What do I want? 154 What do you hear from Leslie?"
154What do you make out of it?
154What do you mean, Pen?
154What do you mean, Si?
154What do you mean, Tom?
154What do you mean?
154What do you mean?
154What do you mean?
154What do you think he meant by it?
154What do you think? 154 What do you want I should own up about a thing for when I do n''t feel wrong?
154What do you want Pen should do,repeated Mrs. Lapham,"when it comes to it?"
154What do you want she should do?
154What do you want?
154What do you want?
154What does she think of it?
154What fellow?
154What gave Irene a headache?
154What good would it have done?
154What have you been doing wrong?
154What have you been telling Irene about me?
154What have you done, Pen?
154What have you got there under your apron? 154 What if they are not for sale?"
154What in the world can a cottage at Nantasket be like?
154What in the world do you suppose he means by it?
154What is it?
154What is it?
154What is my plan?
154What is that?
154What is the Events?
154What little circus?
154What makes you so solemn,''Rene?
154What makes you think he likes Pen?
154What office?
154What old fool?
154What shall I do? 154 What sort of a person is he, anyway?"
154What sort of people do they seem to be at home?
154What sort? 154 What then?"
154What time can I see you in the morning?
154What was that?
154What you going to do?
154What''s he done? 154 What''s he done?"
154What''s that to you?
154What''s that you say about father?
154What''s the matter with YOU?
154What''s the matter?
154What''s the matter?
154What''s the reason he do n''t come here any more?
154What''s the use?
154What''s this one?
154What''s up?
154What-- what does it mean?
154What? 154 When is he going to start for South America?"
154When is she coming back?
154When shall we see our daughter- in- law elect? 154 When will Colonel Lapham be in, do you suppose?"
154When your father gets through this, Pen,she asked impulsively,"what shall you do?"
154Where are they?
154Where do you want I should go?
154Where does he live?
154Where is your lot? 154 Where the devil you goin''to?"
154Where was he?
154Where''d you get that?
154Where''s mamma, Pen? 154 Where''s the YOUNG man?
154Where''s your mother?
154Who else will he do it to?
154Who is that girl you''ve got in your office, Silas Lapham?
154Who is the old man blowing to this morning?
154Who wanted to go in for these people in the first place? 154 Who wants him to see Irene?"
154Who wants to have it on that basis?
154Who''s plotting?
154Who''s takin''it what way?
154Who? 154 Who?
154Who? 154 Who?"
154Who?
154Whom did you think of asking?
154Why are you so particular? 154 Why could n''t you speak a word?"
154Why did n''t you stop him?
154Why did n''t you tell me before, Silas?
154Why do n''t you do it now? 154 Why do n''t you say something?"
154Why do you expect to know any better by morning? 154 Why do you mind it?
154Why in the world should I?
154Why not?
154Why should I promise such a thing-- so abominably wrong? 154 Why should I want to hurt you, mamma?"
154Why should Pen care what impression she made? 154 Why should n''t he come down with father, if father asked him?
154Why should n''t he go into something else?
154Why should we wait for them to make the advances? 154 Why, ai n''t you going to have any supper first?"
154Why, do n''t you think he does know, Bromfield?
154Why, how long have you been up, Pen? 154 Why, what IS it, mamma?"
154Why, what did she do? 154 Why, what have you heard about her?"
154Why, what in the land did he want? 154 Why, where is he?"
154Why?
154Why?
154Why?
154Will they be a great addition to society?
154Will you tell father?
154Will you?
154Will-- will-- everything go?
154With money?
154With your chocolates and olives, and your clutter of bric- a- brac?
154Wo n''t you come in? 154 Wo n''t you sit down?
154Yes, but if they do n''t want he should come? 154 Yes; quit the business?
154Yes?
154Yes?
154Yes?
154You do n''t believe there are any such parties?
154You do n''t propose to work for nothing?
154You do n''t think it''ll be necessary for anybody to come down from the office and take orders from him while he''s laid up, do you, mother?
154You have?
154You know,said that lady in a lower tone,"that there is another baby?"
154You mean that I do all the talking when we''re-- together?
154You mean that there are worse things in Texas?
154You mean that you can talk them?
154You must ship some of this paint of yours to foreign countries, Colonel?
154You see how pleased Irene looked when I read it?
154You think I''m fooling, do you?
154You''re not going to tell Irene?
154You''ve nothing to say against D.? 154 Your Uncle Jim does?"
154Your display?
154Your family know about this?
154Your sister is very satirical, is n''t she?
154& X.?"
154A bottle?"
154A little lull ensued upon the introductions, and Mrs. Corey said quietly to Mrs. Lapham,"Can I send any one to be of use to Miss Lapham?"
154After a moment Mrs. Lapham asked,"Is it-- Rogers?"
154After a moment she asked:"And is Miss Irene as pretty as ever?"
154After a moment, she asked,"Should you feel quite so easy if it were a question of that, Bromfield?"
154After a while he heard the host saying,"Shall we join the ladies?"
154And O Pen, what do you suppose he meant by it?"
154And did n''t you like the way his sackcoat set?
154And do n''t she work for her money, and slave for it mornin'', noon, and night?
154And he says, oh, yes, he does; what could make her think such a thing?
154And her daughter?"
154And how came you to have so much more money than you know what to do with, Silas Lapham?"
154And if father lost it for him, does he suppose it would make it any easier for me?
154And is the sister pretty too?"
154And what does the Persis Brand mean?"
154And who is going to make a beginning?
154And will you go to some mother, and ask her sons in marriage for our daughters?
154And will you promise me-- on your honour-- not to speak-- not to try to persuade me-- not to-- touch me?
154And you shall not think I am cruel----""How could I think that?"
154And you want to know what I''m going to do?
154And your daughter?"
154And your other daughter, whom I never met?"
154Are n''t they ambitious?"
154Are n''t we to be amused?"
154Are they any better than we are?
154Are they there?"
154Are you coming back to Boston?"
154Are you going to take him to board in the family?"
154Are you through?
154As close as you are to me now?"
154As if I were dying?"
154At breakfast she said casually:"Girls, how would you like to have your father build on the New Land?"
154Back?"
154Been doing something you''re ashamed of?"
154But at last he said,"Well?"
154But do you know that in spite of his syntax I rather liked him?"
154But even if it were probable and imminent, what could you do?
154But how COULD they?"
154But how-- HOW could it happen?"
154But if he-- if he should?"
154But now when you seem to have had the same idea-- Did you all think so?"
154But people who have never yet given a dinner, how is society to assimilate them?"
154But should n''t you like to build?
154But the plain one-- what do you suppose attracted him in her?"
154But what''s the use, Si?
154But you''ve seen some of those pretty old- fashioned country- houses, have n''t you, where the entrance- story is very low- studded?"
154Ca n''t you come home early?
154Ca n''t you see that you will not be responsible for what happens after you have sold?"
154Can you say-- can you put your hand on your heart and say that-- you-- say you never meant-- that you meant me-- all along?"
154Can you see the workings of her mind too?"
154Come now, Si; what is it?"
154Corey, Corey, Co----"Her sister clapped her hand over her mouth"Will you HUSH, you wretched thing?"
154Corey?"
154Corey?"
154Corey?"
154Cut the whole connection?"
154DID you urge him?"
154Did Irene have a headache when you left?"
154Did he come with them?"
154Did he say he wanted you?"
154Did it ever strike you he might be after Pen?"
154Did it make you cry?"
154Did n''t I, Z''rilla?"
154Did n''t that child''s father lay down his life for you?
154Did n''t you come home full of''em last year, and want me to sell out here and move somewheres else because it did n''t seem to suit''em?
154Did the girl tell you that mother and Irene were out?"
154Did you BUY it, Bartley?
154Did you get my despatch?
154Did you know Mr. Corey had been down here this afternoon, walking on the beach with me?"
154Did you know that he was in difficulties?"
154Did you know that the G. L.& P. wanted to buy the mills?"
154Did you like it?"
154Did you press him?
154Did you see Mr. Corey when he called last night?
154Did you suppose I wanted to ride so as to talk Rogers with you?"
154Did you tell them about the G. L.& P.?"
154Did you think he would come here and SEE if you would n''t let him come?"
154Did you want to go up?"
154Do n''t they dress just as you say?
154Do n''t you believe I did?"
154Do n''t you go everywhere with''em?
154Do n''t you know ANYthing?
154Do n''t you know that it would n''t do to ask those people to our house before they''ve asked us to theirs?
154Do n''t you know that we might as well knock these parties down on the street, and take the money out of their pockets?"
154Do n''t you know what shutting down the Works means?"
154Do n''t you like the smell of the wood and the mortar?
154Do n''t you see that there''s no hope for us?"
154Do n''t you think I behaved horridly when we first met him this evening, not thanking him for coming?
154Do n''t you think he''s handsome?
154Do n''t you think it would be rather decent in me to make his acquaintance?"
154Do n''t you think she''s an extraordinary beauty?"
154Do n''t you think so?"
154Do n''t you think they could get along without me there?"
154Do n''t you think they''d like to come?"
154Do n''t you think we''d ought to git him to sign a paper, or something, that he''ll marry her if she gits it?
154Do n''t you think''Hamlet''is splendid?
154Do n''t you want to ride over there some afternoon with me and see it?"
154Do n''t you?"
154Do you believe he''ll think I do n''t want him to?
154Do you like George Eliot?"
154Do you like it?"
154Do you like it?"
154Do you mean that because Tom did n''t praise the elder sister so much, he HAS spoken to HER?"
154Do you promise that?"
154Do you promise?"
154Do you promise?"
154Do you see any way out of it?"
154Do you suppose a fellow like young Corey, brought up the way he''s been, would touch mineral paint with a ten- foot pole?"
154Do you suppose he''d have been so ready to act on his own advice if it HAD been?"
154Do you suppose it''s the custom?"
154Do you think I did?
154Do you think I will give you up till I know why I must?"
154Do you think I''m going to let you come here and eat your wife out of house and home, and then give money to keep the concern going?"
154Do you think he really did come to see how papa was?"
154Do you understand that?"
154Do you want any more coffee?"
154Do you want to invite the Coreys to a house- warming?"
154Does Irene know?"
154Does he think I would let him give father money?
154Don''t----""Did they talk it over after I left?"
154Early deprivations of any kind, that would encourage the youthful reader to go and do likewise?
154Good- looking chap, ai n''t he?"
154Hain''t you said it yourself a hundred times?
154Has the Colonel been doing the honours?"
154Have your friends got these qualities,--which may be felt, but not defined?"
154He formulated and repeated over to himself an apparently careless question, such as,"Oh, by the way, Corey, where do you get your gloves?"
154He merely asked,"Have I ever accused you of anything wrong, Persis?"
154He said,"What could a man do whose unnatural father had left his own nose away from him?"
154Heigh?
154Heigh?"
154Heigh?"
154His wife called down to him from above as he approached the room again,"Well?"
154How ARE things going, Si?"
154How are they ever going to get the books together?"
154How are you?
154How can I ever look at her again?"
154How could I help it?
154How could I keep it from him?
154How could she give you up?"
154How could you think such a thing?
154How did he expect it would change me?"
154How did you leave the girls?"
154How is it worse?
154How is it wrong?"
154How is your oldest daughter?"
154How long have you been here?"
154How long?"
154How would you have liked it if some one had taken comfort because his boy lived when ours died?
154How''d you like to go to the theatre to- night?
154I came here to see your father, and to tell him that I wished to tell you this-- to ask him----But what does it matter?
154I do n''t know as you saw an interview that fellow published in the Events a while back?"
154I hope Mrs. Lapham is well?
154I hope he''s better now?"
154I hope no harm?"
154I hope you''re able to make him useful to you here?"
154I may see her again?
154I suppose they''ve cleaned everything out again?"
154I suppose you asked him to ride after the mare?"
154I suppose you found the latest publications lying all about in Lapham cottage when you were down there?"
154I suppose you would n''t have mentioned it now if I had n''t led up to it, would you?"
154I think it would become me, do n''t you?"
154I thought you said she was a very pretty, well- behaved girl?"
154I used to say,''Why did n''t you take a partner yourself, Persis, while I was away?''
154I want to know how long she''s been there?
154I want to know what a respectable man, with grown- up girls of his own, is doing with such a looking thing as that in his office?
154I want to know what she''s there at all for?"
154I was born on a farm, and----""Worked in the fields summers and went to school winters: regulation thing?"
154I wonder what the Ongpeer style is?"
154IS IT MRS. M. THAT YOU GAVE THAT MONEY TO?
154If money is fairly and honestly earned, why should we pretend to care what it comes out of, when we do n''t really care?
154If such a road as that took a fancy to his mills, do you think it would pay what he asked?
154In fact, what good would my telling him that mineral paint was nasty have done?
154In the middle of the night she called to him, in a voice which the darkness rendered still more deeply troubled:"Are you awake, Silas?"
154Irene came straight to her after Corey was gone, and demanded,"Penelope Lapham, have you been such a ninny as to send that man away on my account?"
154Is Leslie still home- sick for the bean- pots of her native Boston?"
154Is Persis Brand a name?"
154Is he going to lose his money?
154Is it Gibbon or Gibbons?"
154Is it the end?"
154Is it to be something fine?"
154Is n''t he coming to breakfast?"
154Is n''t that rather too much?"
154Is she plain?"
154Is there any new trouble?"
154Is there ever anything going on that''s worth while that they do n''t see it or hear it?
154It was very strange, her being there; why did she jump up in that frightened way when Mrs. Lapham had named herself?
154It''ll be kind of odd, wo n''t it?"
154It''s nothing serious, I hope?"
154Lapham could only venture very modestly,"Hard- wood floors?"
154Lapham frowned into his coffee with sulky dignity, and said, without looking up,"I wonder what that fellow wanted here last night?"
154Lapham leaned a little toward Mrs. Corey, and said of a picture which he saw on the wall opposite,"Picture of your daughter, I presume?"
154Lapham?"
154M.''?"
154M.''?"
154MUST you go?"
154May I offer it to you?"
154May I read now, my dear?"
154Mr. Corey''s father?
154Mrs. Corey and the young ladies well?"
154Mrs. Lapham, what made you feel that it might be better for three to suffer than one?"
154My daughter IS like her, do n''t you think?"
154My horse down there yet, William?"
154NOW do you understand?"
154Notice how yellow the old man looked when he came in this morning?
154Now that he''s lost everything--?"
154Now you ain''t-- you ai n''t going to say anything?"
154Now, will you tell Irene?
154Oh, what shall I do?"
154Or did you ever think of matrimony?"
154Ought I to have asked him to come again, when he said good- night?
154Papa gone to bed?"
154Perhaps you came up to tell him again that it was nasty?"
154Pretty?
154Real estate?
154Rogers?"
154Sayre?"
154Seen''Joshua Whitcomb''?"
154Sewell repeated his words, and added,"I mean, what do you think some one else ought to do in your place?"
154Sewell?"
154Shall we have to stay in this house?"
154Shall you go with her?"
154Shall you have her?"
154She could n''t be so vulgar as that?"
154She could not help betraying her pride in this authority of hers, but she went on anxiously enough,"What will you say to Irene?
154She even answered him patiently when he asked her,"What did you say to Tom when he told you it was the other one?"
154She looked up at him where he stood by the chimney- piece, and tried to put a cheerful note into her questioning"Yes?"
154She was frightened, and could only ask,"Has it come to the worst?"
154She''s safe as far as I''m concerned; but if he do n''t care for her, what will you do?"
154Should you feel just right about letting him?"
154Should you want a girl who had n''t a cent in the world, and felt different in your mother''s company, and had cheated and betrayed her own sister?"
154Should you want to have poetry?"
154Should you write to him?"
154So close to him, and yet free-- kind of peeling away at the lapels?"
154Suppose we do n''t want Pen to have him; will that help Irene any, if he do n''t want her?
154Tell me, Mrs. Lapham, did n''t this come into your mind when you first learned how matters stood?"
154That evening as he sat down with his wife alone at tea, he asked,"Ai n''t Pen coming to supper?"
154That your father?
154The Colonel?"
154The broker answered cheerfully, yes; he supposed Colonel Lapham knew it was a pretty dull time in real estate?
154The cat seated herself across the room, and asked quietly--"Well, what could you do if it WAS Mr. Corey?
154The door of their mother''s chamber opened below, and the voice of the real Colonel called,"What are you doing up there, girls?
154The question is, Will you sell, and, if so, what is your figure?
154The question is, what are we going to do about Penelope?"
154Then he answered,"Good morning,"and added rather sternly for the elder Corey,"How do you do, sir?
154Then he asked,"How do you feel to- night, Pen?"
154Then he turned to the young, man and demanded:"Was I drunk last night?"
154Then she asked:"Are they well?"
154Then she broke out on him:"What are you in such a hurry to get into that house for?
154Then where''ll you be?"
154Then, courageously drawing a little nearer:"Is it some kind of jam?"
154Then, seeing that her mother remained blankly silent again, she demanded,"Why do n''t you blame me, mother?
154They said, What harm could giving the dinner possibly do them?
154This seemed sense to Lapham; but Bromfield Corey asked:"But what if life as it is is n''t amusing?
154To which father in our acquaintance shall I go and propose an alliance for Tom with his daughter?
154Tom, how many club men do you know who would think it sweet and fitting to die for their country?"
154Tryin''your chimney?"
154Unless,"he added inquiringly,"there''s somebody coming here?"
154WILL you?"
154WORKS there?"
154Was HE the sort of man to be allowed to play her false with impunity?
154Was he at the office to- day?"
154Was she as pretty as ever?"
154Well, Pen, how are the folks?"
154Well, what can you do?
154Well, what''s the use?
154Well-- where was I?"
154Were n''t you perfectly astonished when you found out how many other plays of his there were?
154What CAN you mean?"
154What about Irene?"
154What are we going to do about Irene?"
154What are you always bringing that up for?"
154What business is he in?"
154What could he say to us?"
154What did I do?"
154What did I ever care for the money?
154What did I say?
154What did she say?"
154What did she seem to think of her father''s brag?"
154What did you hint?"
154What did you mean by a family dinner seeming significant?"
154What did you suppose I started to tell you?"
154What difference does it make?
154What do you let him blight everything for?"
154What do you mean, Silas?"
154What do you s''pose I want?
154What do you suppose it is?"
154What do you think it is?"
154What do you think of his never letting Miss Dewey''s name go on the books?"
154What do you think of taking up next?
154What do you want I should do, Pen?"
154What does the Colonel think?"
154What gambling?
154What have you been crying about?"
154What have you got to say against it?"
154What is he afraid of?"
154What is it?
154What is it?"
154What is she doing there?"
154What is this trouble, that you ca n''t tell it?
154What is your idea?"
154What kind of writers are they?"
154What makes you so cross about the girls?
154What right had she?"
154What shall I do?
154What shall he do?
154What should you do?"
154What was he doing there?"
154What was the disagreeable daughter like?
154What was the proportion of the sexes at the seashore and the mountains?"
154What was the sister like?"
154What will you take for it?
154What would be the use of his pretending?
154What would she go right home and invite you to dinner for, if she''d acted the way you say?"
154What''s it all of it for, if it ai n''t for that?
154What''s that?"
154What''s that?"
154What''s the difference between our asking them and their asking us?"
154What''s the matter with her that she did n''t sleep?"
154What''s the use of blaming?
154When Lapham had not quite understood, he held the person''s hand, and, leaning urbanely forward, inquired,"What name?"
154When are you going down to Mount Desert?"
154When did you get back?"
154When did you take up gambling for a living?"
154When do you suppose he''ll come again?"
154When do you want I should begin to build on Beacon Street?"
154When he asked finally,"What are the characteristics of Papa Lapham that place him beyond our jurisdiction?"
154When shall I be there?"
154Where did you meet him?"
154Where you going?"
154Where''d you say you lived?"
154Where''d you say you wanted to get out?"
154Where''s your ship?
154Who began it?
154Who could imagine such a thing?
154Who else?
154Who else?"
154Who gave it to you?"
154Who is it writes this, anyway?"
154Who is she?
154Who is she?
154Who said it was gambling?"
154Who shall I ask for?
154Who was it?"
154Who was the thing, anyway?
154Who?"
154Whom did you find at the club?"
154Why ai n''t you satisfied?''
154Why ca n''t they let people have a chance to behave reasonably in stories?"
154Why did n''t you mention this encounter at dinner?
154Why did n''t you say Mr. Corey if you meant Mr. Corey?
154Why did n''t you tell me so before, and not let me keep on going round just like a common person?"
154Why do n''t you come down with me to Nantasket?
154Why do n''t you come to your breakfast?
154Why do n''t you get them into society?
154Why do n''t you go off on some them long v''y''ges?
154Why do n''t you go to Jordan& Marsh''s and order one of the imported dresses for yourself, father?"
154Why do n''t you go to bed?"
154Why do n''t you invite some of your other clerks?"
154Why do n''t you make him take a rest, mamma?"
154Why do n''t you say that I led him on, and tried to get him away from her?
154Why is it different with you, except that you give me nothing, and can never give me anything when you take yourself away?
154Why not?"
154Why should n''t I be right in the rest?"
154Why should n''t people in love behave sensibly?"
154Why should n''t we make''em?
154Why should she have done it?
154Why should we suffer from another''s mistake as if it were our sin?"
154Why, what''s the matter with you?
154Why, why SHOULD he pretend to have any such parties in view when he has n''t?
154Why?"
154Will you go if I tell you, and never let any human creature know what you have said to me?"
154Will you take a chair?"
154Wo n''t you send a line by the bearer, to say that I may come to see you?
154Would you like to try another?"
154YOU scared, Silas Lapham?"
154You ca n''t complain now but what they''ve made the advances, Persis?"
154You did n''t suppose I cared for you because he was prosperous?"
154You do think so, do n''t you?"
154You gentlemen KNOW that they happened; but are you still able to believe it?"
154You know about that West Virginian paint?"
154You said he might hold a shaving down for you?"
154You wo n''t touch me?"
154You would n''t like it to be a favour, would you?"
154You''ve read it, Nanny?"
154cried Mrs. Lapham,"ai n''t you Zerrilla Millon?"
154did n''t you have a pleasant call?"
154do n''t you think he IS nice?
154he said, turning to the minister,"what has ever been conceived of omnipotence, of omniscience, so sublime, so divine as that?"
154said Mrs. Corey;"are they so much attached?
154the commonplace?"
154was n''t that Mrs. Corey''s carriage just drove away?"
154what are we going to do about it?
154what are you doing here?"
154what do you think made him come?
154what in the world has put the Colonel up to that?"
154what should you advise Z''rilla to do about Mr. Wemmel?
154you WON''T make fun of him as you do of some of those people?
154you never forget anything?"
30299''Do you mean my heart or my head, General?'' 30299 ''Most anything, eh?
30299''Twas the leg he lost at Seven Pines-- wasn''t it?--that supported her?
30299A lady? 30299 A little girl?
30299A preacher?
30299A real dream lady in pink tarlatan?
30299A silly person? 30299 Ah, Miss Matoaca, does our own experience ever teach us to understand the experience of others?"
30299Ah, it is, is it? 30299 Ai n''t I done tole you how''tis?"
30299Ai n''t I gwine drap de gent''man some whar on de way up?
30299Ai n''t you ever hyern er Marse Bland? 30299 Air you what?"
30299Am I common?
30299An ambition?
30299An''did he shut it?
30299An''do n''t you ever leave off?
30299An''may I play under the trees on the terrace where you built yo''houses of moss and stones?
30299An''when''ll I grow up if I keep on fast?
30299An''which did they give him, Uncle?
30299An''you''ve promised on yo''life to sham sick to- morrow?
30299And Miss Mitty, will she not come with you?
30299And Miss Mitty?
30299And are you not happy here, dear?
30299And do you think she likes George, General?
30299And do you think, Ben, that you are the only person who is considering Sally''s happiness?
30299And have I tried to break yours?
30299And how did she take it?
30299And if you''re poor you''ll let me be poor too? 30299 And is she entirely alone?
30299And is there nothing to be said for the claims of love?
30299And lost it?
30299And she did n''t suffer?
30299And she''s seriously engaged to you?
30299And suppose,she demanded in a clear voice,"that love was all that I wanted?"
30299And take you into the house?
30299And that is?
30299And the General and the Great South Midland and Atlantic Railroad?
30299And the churchyard and the red shoes and Samuel?
30299And this is your road?
30299And what did she say then, Aunt Euphronasia?
30299And what may ma''s name be?
30299And what was that?
30299And what,she asked slowly,"do you consider to be worthy of my acceptance?"
30299And when it ceases to be you''ll throw it over?
30299And where does he live?
30299And you danced all night?
30299And you did n''t feel any better?
30299And you do n''t even glance at the political headlines? 30299 And you expect me to remember what I promised four years ago?"
30299And you expect to flutter about a stove in a pale blue breakfast jacket and a lace cap?
30299And you go South?
30299And you would do it over again?
30299And you''ll make a sacrifice for me-- as the General said George wouldn''t-- whenever I happen particularly to want one?
30299And you''re doing all this learning just to get an education, ai n''t you?
30299And you''ve done this all your life?
30299And you''ve got fifty thousand dollars already?
30299And you''ve got it, sweetheart?
30299And you''ve kept that?
30299And you?
30299And yours?
30299Any relative of Jack Starr?
30299Are her folks still livin''? 30299 Are the two old ladies his daughters?"
30299Are there ghosts here really an''have you seen''em?
30299Are we?
30299Are you all right?
30299Are you going out?
30299Are you going to market, Aunt Matoaca?
30299Are you going to work, Ben?
30299Are you happy here, Jessy?
30299Are you in pain now, Sally? 30299 Are you laughing now, Sally?"
30299Are you precious sure she is n''t flirting? 30299 Are you president of it still, sir?"
30299Are you sure George has n''t let it out? 30299 Are you sure they ai n''t among the vegetables?"
30299Are you sure they did not pass here?
30299Are you sure you are strong enough, Sally?
30299As the General?
30299At any rate he does n''t humiliate you?
30299At least you dosed them?
30299Aunt Euphronasia, do you know where Sally goes every afternoon?
30299Believes what, sir?
30299Ben, are you happy?
30299Ben, did you sell Beauchamp?
30299Ben,he said,"what''s this Hatty tells me about George taking Sally out motoring with him yesterday, and not bringing her back?
30299Boy, how do you do?
30299Boy,said the voice,"do you want a dog?"
30299But I thought we were going to grandmama''s?
30299But I want to know, pa, why it was that I came to be named just Ben?
30299But did n''t you show her his pretty blue eyes, mammy?
30299But do you think their elders can judge for them?
30299But her niece-- Miss Mickleborough?
30299But how am I to get it, President?
30299But how can anybody be serious, Aunt Mitty, about a person who did n''t know when her own tooth ached?
30299But how could you? 30299 But how was I to be sure, when you did n''t want to be with me?"
30299But she did not, I presume?
30299But she stood up for me?
30299But suppose I do n''t want anything on God''s earth except that horse?
30299But suppose,I blushed, for I was a reserved man, though few people were reserved with Dr. Theophilus,"suppose that your heaven is a woman?"
30299But that did n''t make you feel any brighter?
30299But what do folks say to you when they see you walkin''?
30299But what do you do when you get tired?
30299But who is Theophilus Pry?
30299But why did her father never see her again?
30299But why-- why-- what on earth is the use of taking so great a risk?
30299By the way, uncle, have you heard the last news?
30299Ca n''t you think of anything that would be worse?
30299Call me what?
30299Can you guess why I loved you?
30299Can you imagine it? 30299 Can you read that inscription, Ben?
30299Can you wait till I speak to mammy? 30299 Coarse?"
30299Could anything on earth be more serious than a lovelorn death?
30299Could n''t I roll up my hair in it, Auntie?
30299Cream and sugar?
30299Cruel? 30299 Damn you, Ben, do you know cash is as tight as wax?"
30299Damnation!--I mean Good Lord, have mercy on my toe, why should I remember you?
30299Darling, how did you do it?
30299Dear old enemy, I wonder what she thinks of this?
30299Did it ever strike you, Benjy,he enquired solemnly, after a minute,"that in the marriage of ma and pa the breeches were on the wrong one of''em?
30299Did ma name me Ben Starr, or just Ben?
30299Did ma name you, too?
30299Did that last smash cost you anything?
30299Did they give''em to him because he talked too much?
30299Did you dream then that you''d ever stand here with me like this?
30299Did you go to Miss Matoaca?
30299Did you have a good time?
30299Did you tell me to lay a slice of middlin''along side of''em, Susan?
30299Did you, darling?
30299Do I understand that you are proposing to other men and women or to me, sir?
30299Do for you? 30299 Do n''t you see-- oh, ca n''t you see,"she asked,"that it is because of these very things that I love him?
30299Do n''t you think it''s about time all honest folk were out of bed, sonny?
30299Do n''t you want a cat, boy?
30299Do the flowers bother you? 30299 Do you believe it after listening to that confounded fog- horn on the porch?"
30299Do you call it hatching or crowing to become president of the Union Bank?
30299Do you dare to tell me to my face that I married you for money?
30299Do you feel yourself getting big, Ben?
30299Do you hear often from President, Jessy?
30299Do you know me now?
30299Do you know who lives in that grey house, Mammy?
30299Do you mean that you will marry me?
30299Do you mean to tell me that you learned these gallantries in Johnson''s Dictionary?
30299Do you mean to tell me you can sit down and read a dictionary for the pure pleasure of reading?
30299Do you mean to tell me you had n''t heard it?
30299Do you mind my calling you one? 30299 Do you remember the first day, Ben?"
30299Do you remember the night of the storm and the cup of milk you would n''t drink?
30299Do you remember the stormy night when you would not let me take your wet cap because I was a common boy?.
30299Do you remember what you said?
30299Do you still remember me because of the blue- eyed collie?
30299Do you think I''d be left?
30299Do you think that, Sally?
30299Do you want a dog, boy?
30299Do you want one very badly?
30299Does George see her?
30299Does it follow, General, that she would have been a happy one?
30299Does n''t it make you happy?
30299Does n''t it tickle you, Ben?
30299Does the burn hurt you, Sally?
30299Does there exist a woman,I demanded sternly,"who can be humorous over her own eviction?"
30299Does your head ache, darling?
30299Done? 30299 Dreadful, Sally?"
30299Easy? 30299 Eh?
30299Even when we get them from life, have n''t most of them had their beginning in books?
30299Excite myself? 30299 For God''s sake, Ben, where is it coming from?"
30299For God''s sake, Sally, what are you doing?
30299Go home, Bessy? 30299 Go''way, chile, whar you done come f''om?"
30299Going down for a little hunting?
30299Good Lord, Tina,responded the doctor, with a burst of irritation,"is n''t it bad enough to be sick without being made to pay for it?"
30299Good?
30299Happy? 30299 Hard or soft?"
30299Has he a kite?
30299Has he flown out?
30299Has it ever been anything else to a man since Adam?
30299Has n''t developed any principles yet, eh? 30299 Has n''t got on the scent, has he?"
30299Has our Bible saved a soul? 30299 Have I been very ill, Sally?"
30299Have I ever deceived you,she demanded sternly,"even for your good?"
30299Have I ever deceived you?
30299Have I ever lied to you since we were married, Ben?
30299Have n''t you noticed for weeks that the General and I have had a secret?
30299Have you a time- table on your desk?
30299Have you ever been there? 30299 Have you ever had a twinge of gout, boy?"
30299Have you got a good place, President?
30299Have you got a palm- leaf fan around, Sally? 30299 Have you noticed a lady with a little girl go by?"
30299Have you read?
30299Have you, indeed? 30299 Have you?
30299He ai n''t swallowed anything of yours, has he?
30299He told you that he loved you?
30299He''s a fine, strong boy now, ai n''t he, ma''am?
30299He''s a perfect bear, is n''t he, George?
30299Help you to become God Almighty?
30299Home?
30299Hope you may die?
30299How can I forget it, Aunt Mitty? 30299 How can I get well when I know that you have been starving?"
30299How can I help being happy, when I have blue roses, Bonny? 30299 How can I leave you, Ben?
30299How could you, Sally, when it was all for you, and you knew it?
30299How did Miss Matoaca seem?
30299How did Sally manage?
30299How did it end?
30299How do you do, Mr. Starr? 30299 How do you do?
30299How is George, General?
30299How like you it was,she returned, almost in a whisper, with the spray of sweet alyssum held to her lips,"and how can I thank you?"
30299How long have I been ill, Sally?
30299How long will it be befo''I can climb up by myself?
30299How soon may I get up?
30299How soon? 30299 How was I to hear of it?
30299Huntley?
30299I do n''t like big girls-- do you?
30299I got you your job-- did I? 30299 I hope she is n''t still in love with him?"
30299I know you are doing something you ought not to,she repeated,"what is it?"
30299I might, Aunt Matoaca; but, as a matter of fact, have I? 30299 I promised you I''d send bills to the folks I''d cured, but, when I came to think of it, how was I to know, Tina, that I''d cured any?"
30299I reckon you can tell me the meaning of''most any word, eh, Ben?
30299I reckon you knew almost everybody that''s buried here, did n''t you?
30299I say, Ben, why ai n''t you out on the floor?
30299I say, Ben,he broke out the next minute,"why do n''t you get the housemaid to tie your cravats?
30299I stoop to you?
30299I thought you said it had covered every hour of your life?
30299I wonder if all fathers are like that?
30299I wonder why they say of you that you have no social amenities?
30299I''d forgotten all about it, General, but do you really mean you will let it come to a public auction?
30299I''d like to know why he ai n''t?
30299I''ll let you overhaul a barrel of apples, sonny,said the big man to me;"have you got a sharp eye for specks?"
30299I''m not sure, doctor,she answered;"after all flowers are tame sport, are n''t they?
30299If I give you a dime, will you quit bothering me?
30299If I take you home that way will you promise to sham sick to- morrow, so I sha n''t have to bring you out?
30299If I were to leave you here an hour what would you do, Ben?
30299If he thinks that, why did n''t he get control of the road himself?
30299If you do n''t love me-- and, of course you can''t-- why do you torment me?
30299If you go, may I go with you?
30299If you please, General, do you remember me?
30299If-- if anyone should come to enquire after me, will you be so good as to say nothing of my having been here?
30299In five or ten years?
30299In that case there is hope of recovery?
30299Is George aware of it?
30299Is Sally here?
30299Is his face red and awful?
30299Is it all right still?
30299Is it far, President?
30299Is it important?
30299Is it possible that in the future-- in any future-- you could have more than yourself?
30299Is it possible,enquired the old lady in the manner of her pecking parrot,"that he does not wash his face?"
30299Is it the mild air, or the spring flowers?
30299Is it very long? 30299 Is it, Ben?"
30299Is n''t there anything that you can do for me, sir?
30299Is n''t this just as nice as being rich, Ben?
30299Is pa common?
30299Is that because you are my native element? 30299 Is that yo''youngest?
30299Is there any way, Uncle Methusalah, that you can grow up befo''yo''time?
30299Is there anything else? 30299 Is your coffee right, Mr. Starr?
30299Is your mamma as beautiful as mine?
30299Is your mistress ill?
30299It sounds strange to you,she went on,"but why should n''t I have one?
30299It''s been going on thirty years sence yo''ma died, ai n''t it, Benjy?
30299It''s better to be humorous over one''s own than over one''s neighbour''s, is n''t it? 30299 It''s funny, is n''t it?--that when you ask a man anything about women, he always begins to talk about his wife, even when he has n''t got one?"
30299It''s like fairyland, is n''t it?
30299It''s not my business to shatter your ideals,I answered, and the next minute,"O Sally, how is it to end?"
30299It''s you, Ben, is it?
30299Just since we''ve recovered our money?
30299Learning how?
30299Let her? 30299 Let me have a look,"I said, as I reached her,"is the mare hurt?"
30299Library, eh? 30299 Like it?
30299Look here, Ben, have you kept control of the West Virginia and Wyanoke?
30299Look here, Ben,he began suddenly, with a change of tone,"what''s this trouble brewing between you and Miss Mitty Bland?"
30299Lost it, Ben?
30299Love a man who puts both his pride and his principles before me?
30299Ma,I asked, going up to her and turning my back while she unfastened my bib with one soapy hand,"did you ever hear anybody call you common?"
30299Ma,I asked, measuring myself against the red and white cloth on the table,"does it look to you as if I were growin''up?"
30299May I go out to him now?
30299May I go there, too, when I''m big?
30299May I go, too, ma?
30299May I play with him just a little while, grandmama?
30299May I play with you in your garden?
30299More, Sally?
30299No, I suppose you ai n''t,he admitted,"but, good Lord, Ben, how did you make her do it?"
30299Not meanin''any harm an''you brought him a stepmother befo''six months was up?
30299Not to talk any more about my stooping to a giant?
30299Now by a fair calculation how long do you suppose it will take you?
30299Now that''s a matter of ch''ice, ai n''t it?
30299Now, at this instant?
30299Now, the first thing we''ve got to do is to get out of debt, is n''t it?
30299Now-- at this instant,she agreed,"but I thought you were so patient?"
30299O, Ben Starr, were you born blind?
30299Of course, I''ll lend it to you; but why in the deuce were you so blamed cheerful this afternoon about that house in the country? 30299 Oh, Ben, Ben, why are you so hard?
30299Oh, Ben, my dearest, are you really awake?
30299Oh, I''m glad, glad the debt is gone, and now you''ll look young and splendid again, wo n''t you?
30299Oh, Sally, my darling, why did you marry me?
30299Oh, ca n''t you understand?
30299Oh, of course, you do n''t enjoy them, Ben, as I do, but is n''t that little embroidered cloak too lovely?
30299Out- of- doors?
30299Pa, who named me?
30299Pa,I asked presently, with an effort to resume the conversation along cheerful lines,"was it a he or a she pup?"
30299Patient? 30299 Poor Sarah was the only one of us who gave up everything for the sake of an emotion,"added Miss Mitty,"and what did it bring her except misery?"
30299Pour his wine, Ben,she said, dismissing the butler,"there are too many frivolities, are n''t there?
30299Pretty? 30299 Promised to marry you, eh?
30299Put it into a pie?
30299Respect her? 30299 Right in what, Sally?"
30299Ruined? 30299 Sally, am I mad or do you love me?"
30299Sally, how can you receive a man who was not born a gentleman?
30299Sally, how will you stand it?
30299Sally,I asked seriously,"do n''t you understand that all this-- everything I''m doing-- is just for you and the boy?"
30299Sally,said the old lady, turning upon me a piercing glance which was like the flash of steel in the sunlight,"is that a boy?"
30299Sally? 30299 Sha n''t I be big enough to climb up befo''then?"
30299Shall I confess something just as dreadful?
30299Shall I read it over, mother? 30299 Shall I tell her now, or after dinner?"
30299Shall I tell you a secret because of yo''blue eyes?
30299Shall we sit down and talk a little over there under the smilax?
30299She''ll grow used to it,said little Bessy;"but, Sally, how did you have the courage?"
30299She? 30299 Slaves?
30299So Sally''s going to marry you in spite of her aunts? 30299 So he believed the Wyanoke coal fields were n''t worked out, eh?"
30299So his daughter fought for me?
30299So she did it of her own accord? 30299 So the baby really ai n''t took anything of yours?"
30299So you call that easy, gentlemen?'' 30299 So you''re still after my job, eh?
30299So you''re sweeping the whole South?
30299So you''ve turned up, have you? 30299 Some other interest?"
30299Suppose you do it now, sir,she rejoined, with the primness of Miss Mitty, and a little later,"What else was there to do but rise, you absurd boy?
30299Ten years? 30299 That depends, does n''t it,"she asked,"whether you want to marry me or my maiden aunts?"
30299That they would pass?
30299The first day? 30299 The rain does not sadden you, sweetheart?"
30299The thing that made you learn Johnson''s Dictionary by heart?
30299The thing, then,she corrected herself,"that made you learn the_ a_,_ b_,_ c_''s of Johnson''s Dictionary by heart?"
30299Then I''ll begin to love it for your sake-- if it means that to you?
30299Then am I, ma?
30299Then if you ai n''t an''pa ai n''t exactly, how can I be?
30299Then more of what?
30299Then perhaps you are?
30299Then the General sent you?
30299Then we must start from the very bottom?
30299Then where in the devil is George? 30299 Then who did name you?"
30299Then who is the little girl? 30299 Then why did n''t you stay, sir?"
30299Then why do n''t I say my prayers to ma instead of to God?
30299Then why do n''t you choose?
30299Then why warn''t I born Savage?
30299Then why were you crawling so close along the wall to keep me from seeing you?
30299Then you are n''t so very unhappy as long as we are together?
30299Then you have n''t known it all along and kept it from me?
30299Then you wo n''t be here?
30299Then you''ll be satisfied with the lesser office, eh?
30299Theophilus,she began in a crisp, high voice,"I hope you have sent in those bills, as you promised me?"
30299There is nothing left?
30299There''ll be nobody at church?
30299There''s a chance now?
30299There''s only one thing I''ll never, never consent to,she said,"you remember Dolly?"
30299They are too small?
30299They''ve lost money?
30299Thinking of what, sweetheart?
30299This is a nice party, is n''t it?
30299To a ball,I said;"are you strong enough for that, Sally?"
30299To be named just Ben?
30299To have done what?
30299To marry you-- you-- Ben Starr?
30299To the wrong side of the world? 30299 To- morrow, then?"
30299Uncle Methusalah,I asked, springing up,"how old are you?"
30299View? 30299 W''at you atter, Marse Ben?"
30299Was it a vow not to grow any more?
30299Was it for your red shoes? 30299 Was she alone, Esdras?"
30299Was she born Starr, too?
30299Was she laughed at?
30299Was that confounded package under his arm,I questioned, almost angrily,"some of the stuff?"
30299Wat you call Miss Mitty en Miss Matoaca ole fur? 30299 Wat you reckon Miss Mitty wants wid car''ots fur''er supper?
30299Wat''s dat you gwine sho''me, boy? 30299 We must go, Sally, must n''t we?"
30299Well, Ben, what''re you good for?
30299Well, I must go downtown, dear; I do n''t see much of you these days, do I?
30299Well, how am I to know,demanded the female,"that you have n''t got a parcel of others hidden away?"
30299Well, is n''t it a sad enough sight to see any lady going cracked?
30299Well, my boy,he said cheerily,"you''ve had a good day, I hope?"
30299Well, one ca n''t have excitement without money, can one? 30299 Well, you wo n''t see_ him_ anyway, so what is the use?"
30299Well,''tis de trufe, ai n''t hit? 30299 Whar did he come from?"
30299Whar you gwine now, Miss Sally?
30299What about an eddication, Benjy boy?
30299What are her views?
30299What are you doing, boy?
30299What are you whining about?
30299What boy is that, Thomas?
30299What business has he got not to like it after all the trouble we''ve been to on his account? 30299 What can I do for you, dearest?
30299What can I do, Sally?
30299What can I do?
30299What can we do about it, Samuel? 30299 What day is this, Ben?"
30299What did she say, mammy? 30299 What did you want with so many Bibles?
30299What does she mean by coarse?
30299What does that matter?
30299What does the General think of it, George?
30299What gentleman?
30299What good will it do me if I ca n''t get an education?
30299What has George got to do with it?
30299What have you found out since you came in?
30299What in thunder is there about the brute that has so taken your fancy?
30299What is it, Ben?
30299What is it, Sally, dear?
30299What is it, Sally?
30299What is it, doctor?
30299What is she made of, Sally?
30299What is that, Sally? 30299 What is that, dear?"
30299What is that?
30299What is that?
30299What is the matter, Ben? 30299 What is the matter, you are so flushed?"
30299What is the word?
30299What on earth should I do at a party?
30299What trouble, and why should she keep it from me? 30299 What trouble?
30299What''ll yo''old woman say to it, John?
30299What''ll you do with her? 30299 What''s a prà ¦-lu- di- um?"
30299What''s become o''th''p- p- up- p?
30299What''s become of him?
30299What''s become of his doting father?
30299What''s he done to make him so big?
30299What''s the business?
30299What''s the matter with Sally? 30299 What''s the matter with her mouth?
30299What''s the matter, Ben? 30299 What?
30299What? 30299 When did it happen?"
30299When do you want it?
30299Where does the sun go,I asked,"when it slips way down there on the other side of the river?"
30299Where is the party?
30299Where is your basket?
30299Where we were?
30299Where''s ma?
30299Where''s ma?
30299Where''s the other fellow, George?
30299Who had the most to do with my comin''here, God or ma?
30299Who is coming, Jessy?
30299Who was ole Marse Henry?
30299Who was that pretty girl, Ben,the General enquired presently,"I saw you walking with last Sunday?
30299Who''s a Yankee?
30299Who, Marse Ben?
30299Who? 30299 Who?
30299Whoever said you were? 30299 Whom could I marry, General?"
30299Whom did he talk to, Uncle Methusalah?
30299Whose dawg?
30299Why ca n''t I believe, Sally, that you will really marry me a week from to- day?
30299Why do n''t you lay off yo''black things till you''re through?
30299Why do n''t you write to him, Jessy? 30299 Why not ride at a walk?"
30299Why, what''s the matter, Ben?
30299Will he break his wings on the ceiling, or will he fly out of the window?
30299Will he break his wings or will he fly out?
30299Will you have some syllabub, Ben?
30299Will you hear it?
30299Will you hear it?
30299Will you let me walk under the arbours and down all the box- bordered paths?
30299Will you promise me, dearest?
30299Will you promise to marry me, Ben Starr?
30299Will you tell your aunts, or shall I, Sally?
30299Will you write to President to- night?
30299With you?
30299Would he kill you if he caught you?
30299Would n''t it be worse,she went on in the same level voice,"if you had lost me?"
30299Would n''t you like to grow up and be President, my enquiring young friend?
30299Would you mind if I did n''t change, dear? 30299 Would you rather be alone?
30299Would you rather he did n''t do it? 30299 Would you rather that I should n''t keep them?"
30299Yes, but if you learn the_ a_''s, you''ll learn the other things,--now ai n''t that logic? 30299 Yes, something''s wrong,"he answered quietly,"but have you just found it out?"
30299Yes?
30299Yet she was right, I suppose, to throw him over?
30299You ai n''t dozing in the midst of a panic?
30299You bad boy, what are you doing?
30299You brought him back because he told you that he loved you?
30299You came after me?
30299You came believing that George and I had gone off together?
30299You did n''t see Miss Matoaca Bland pass you in a carriage as you were pushing that wheel?
30299You know that I love you?
30299You know what I would do if I were a rich man, Benjy?
30299You know, do n''t you,she went on,"that poor Aunt Mitty''s not coming kept me from having even you?
30299You like the road, too, eh?
30299You mean a rich man, Ben? 30299 You mean it does n''t matter that I came away with George and spent twenty- four hours?"
30299You mean the little girl wo n''t get a blessed cent?
30299You mean you can say every last word of them_ a_''s,_ b_''s, and_ c_''s straight off?
30299You mean you told nobody all these weeks?
30299You meant you have cared for me, as I have for you-- always?
30299You speculated with the ten thousand dollars?
30299You think, then, that the child is-- is hopeless?
30299You wa''nt what?
30299You were alone and unhappy?
30299You will go, too?
30299You will marry me in November, Sally?
30299You will not forget it?
30299You will trust me now and in all the future?
30299You work, eh? 30299 You''d always promised that I should be your bridesmaid,"she remarked reproachfully;"she''s hurt us dreadfully, has n''t she, Bessy?
30299You''re a great man, are n''t you?
30299You''re comin''along now, ai n''t you, Benjy?
30299You''ve been lying here all day alone?
30299You''ve come to me, have n''t you, because you think you''d like to learn a little Latin?
30299Your class?
30299Your old mare?
30299''Ah, General,''she replied sadly,''what are six feet two inches without a grandfather?''"
30299''What do you do, Jenny?''
30299''Where''s Bushrod?''
30299''Why not move out into the country and give Ben and the youngster a chance to breathe fresh air?
30299A bird is a bird, ai n''t it, even if it''s a Virginia partridge?"
30299A newspaper never enters her doors, and do you believe she has a relative who would be reckless enough to break it to her?"
30299A sweetheart?"
30299Ah, ca n''t you see-- can''t you see, that the worst ca n''t come to us while we are still together?"
30299Ah, dearest, dearest, how can one lower one''s self to a giant?
30299Ai n''t she got everything already that the men do n''t want?
30299Ai n''t the abolitionists and the woman suffragists and the rest of those damned fire- eating Yankees all the same?
30299An''if yours is n''t in there will you have to be damned?
30299An''whose soul was it?
30299And if you''re rich you''ll give me a share of the money?"
30299And in a postscript,"What does the General say to you?
30299And in these two years how much have I seen of her-- of Sally, my wife?
30299And the geranium you gave me?"
30299And were those pathetic red spots the outward sign of a stab in her gentle bosom?
30299And where I failed would George be always ready to fill the unspoken need and to bestow the unasked- for sympathy?
30299And you hear me laugh?"
30299Are n''t blue roses an emblem of the impossible achieved?"
30299Are we common to the bone, I wonder?
30299Are you acting the part of a gay deceiver?"
30299Are you going to be a lawyer?"
30299Are you going to pass away in ignorance of polite society and the manners of the ladies?"
30299Are you often up with the dawn, too?"
30299Are you sure it''s Sally Mickleborough?"
30299Are you sure we have money enough for a ball?"
30299Are you working too hard?"
30299Are your fingers all thumbs?"
30299As I met Sally''s eyes over the roses and lilies, I wondered if she had seen my cowardliness as I had seen Jessy''s, and been repelled by it?
30299At this time?
30299Barclay, did you say?
30299Before I looked: at him I got a vague impression that he was handsome; after I looked at him I began to wonder curiously why he was not?
30299Boxley?"
30299But as long as it does n''t cost any more, you''ve no objection to my cooking in pink instead of drab, I suppose?"
30299But do n''t you think your prosperity is excessive considering the impoverished condition of the country?"
30299But even after we''ve done that, there''ll still be a great big burden to carry, I suppose?"
30299But what can ten years have to do with it?
30299But what do you think it will mean to your aunts next November?"
30299But you do n''t call this being poor, do you, you silly boy?--with all this beautiful mahogany that I can use for a mirror?
30299But''twas her turn, so she called you arter her Uncle Benjamin--""What''s become o''Uncle Benjamin?"
30299Ca n''t you walk, hop, skip, jump, all you want to?"
30299Can you imagine poor Bessy fitting into the picture?"
30299Could I ever repay her?
30299Dar ain''nuttin er de po''wite trash in de look er him, is dar?"
30299Dearest, are you better?
30299Did I take you to Miss Lessie Bell''s dancing class for nothing?
30299Did he give it to you?"
30299Did my past add a keener happiness to my present, or hang always like a threatening shadow above it?
30299Did n''t know it was gouty, eh?
30299Did she care?
30299Did she discern this restlessness in me, I wondered, this ceaseless ache which resembled the ache of muscles that have been long unused?
30299Did she dream that I knew her story?
30299Did she feel?
30299Did she have a spray in her hair when she bent over me?
30299Did she mind the gossip?
30299Did she think I should mind it?
30299Did she think?
30299Did you ever hear of a Virginia lady who was n''t content to be what the Lord and the men intended her?"
30299Did you ever notice my miniature, framed in pearls, that she wore sometimes, in place of grandmama''s, at her throat?"
30299Did you ever see a blue- eyed dog?
30299Did you ever see such a profusion?
30299Did you put on that gorgeous gown just for me?"
30299Do you call her''Sally''?
30299Do you coddle her?
30299Do you ever think what ma would have been if she''d had an eddication?
30299Do you go my way?"
30299Do you have to run away from your father, too?"
30299Do you imagine I''d get out of my bed at seven o''clock and cut up a slimy potato if it was n''t earnest?
30299Do you know the meaning of n- u- i- s- a- n- c- e, boy?"
30299Do you like it, Jessy?"
30299Do you like mince pies, Ben?"
30299Do you mean Miss Matoaca?
30299Do you not realise the impossibility of-- of the connection you speak of?"
30299Do you realise that we are living in the midst of a panic?"
30299Do you remember?"
30299Do you see that little house there, set back in the yard, with the chimney crumbling to pieces?
30299Do you take me for your age, you minx?"
30299Do you think if I had n''t had a cool head they''d have made me president of the South Midland?
30299Do you think she''d be running round loose in this crackbrained way if she had a home she could stay in and a husband she could slave over?
30299Do you want him to snatch a railroad out of my very mouth, madam?"
30299Do you?"
30299Does everybody''s name have to be in the Bible if they''re to be saved?
30299Does he think so?"
30299Does n''t Bessy look for all the world like a rose- bush uprooted by a whirlwind?"
30299Had I lost her?
30299Had she noticed how ill at ease I felt in my evening clothes?
30299Had she noticed, I wondered, that the"magnificent animal"was losing his hold?
30299Had she rather have a vote than the respect of men, an''ai n''t the respect of men enough to fill any honest female''s life?"
30299Had the muscles of my will dwindled away and grown flabby, like the muscles of my body?
30299Hard?
30299Has she no supporter?"
30299Has there been an accident?"
30299Has there been another panic in the market?"
30299Have n''t I just done so?"
30299Have n''t I told you that I wa''nt?"
30299Have stocks tripped him up again, poor fellow?
30299Have you been lonely?"
30299Have you cream enough?"
30299Have you ever been damned an''what does it feel like?"
30299Have you got a glass of iced water you can give Theophilus, Sally?"
30299Have you seen any hats?
30299He has had trouble with his hybridising or something, so he tells us-- what is it, doctor?
30299He hobbles so badly, does n''t he?
30299He is about your height, is he not?"
30299He is one of the richest men in the West, is n''t he?"
30299How about allelujah, how''s that for a mouthful?"
30299How can I regret it when the money came so between us?"
30299How can I separate his past from what he is to- day?
30299How can I?"
30299How can it concern you?"
30299How can she help herself?
30299How can we begin?
30299How can we manage it?"
30299How can you possibly do without me?"
30299How could I have lived through the summer if she had left me?
30299How could I help it?"
30299How could they or she comprehend hunger, who had never gone without for a moment?
30299How did she receive him?"
30299How do we know whether or not we''ll meet any cooks in the jungle?
30299How does she stand it?"
30299How is she, Bonny?
30299How is that miner brother of yours, Ben?
30299How old are you?"
30299How soon, Ben, do you suppose they will evict us?"
30299How soon, Sally?"
30299How tall are you?"
30299How''s pa?"
30299How''s that boy of yours?
30299I asked myself passionately, could I ever forget?
30299I asked, in sheer desperation;"flesh and blood, do you think?"
30299I asked, striving to force a curiosity my wretchedness prevented me from feeling;"ca n''t you unfold the mystery?"
30299I can work beside you, I can work for you-- oh, my dear, my dearest, I am your wife, do you still doubt me?"
30299I echoed lightly;"do you call George good?
30299I exclaimed,''why did n''t you tell that old baboon to stop hugging you and behave himself?''
30299I hate women, do n''t you?"
30299I looked up quickly,"And was it the way_ he_ began?"
30299I questioned angrily, and wherein lay the subtle distinction which divided my nature from George Bolingbroke''s and even from Sally''s?
30299I replied, and turned squarely on her;"Sally, do you love me?"
30299I say, is all your pirouetting to be done with stocks?
30299I shall win in the end-- perhaps--""You will win what?"
30299I wonder what she would be now if the General had been a man like you?
30299I wondered if she meant to emancipate"ladies"merely, or if her principles could possibly overleap her birthright of caste?
30299I''ll do double to- morrow,"he begged, and then turned to me with his pleasant, intimate manner:"Do n''t you hate Latin?
30299If I blot my name out can I still go to heaven?
30299If I did n''t have it, do you think I''d be able to laugh at a pine table?"
30299If I make a fortune will that bring me any nearer to her?
30299If Miss Matoaca had belonged to a rational sex, do you think she''d have killed herself trying to get on an equality with us?
30299If it were killing me, do you think I could laugh?
30299If you do, I wo n''t,"she said, and without waiting a minute,"What are you doing here?
30299In seeking to give money had I, in reality, sacrificed the ability to give the things that she valued far more?
30299Is family tradition, after all, as good a school as the hard world?
30299Is he wanting to become a bank president already?"
30299Is it possible that she could ever love me?
30299Is it the bank or your private investments you''ve been worrying over?"
30299Is it time now to dress for dinner?"
30299Is n''t every wife and mother happy?
30299Is n''t it time for you to get out of the city?"
30299Is n''t my dress lovely?"
30299Is n''t there some way of curbing him?"
30299Is she going cracked?
30299Is she out of bed yet?"
30299Is thar any livin''soul, I ax you plainly, expected to see the cuteness in a thing like that except a mother?
30299Is that why you''ve let me bully and badger you for the last six years?"
30299Is there a spot on earth, I wonder, where in this age they worship another God?"
30299Is there anything on God''s earth that you want?
30299Is yo''name in the Bible?
30299Is yo''wits done come back?"
30299Is you got a pa?"
30299Is your wife extravagant?"
30299It amused me sometimes to wonder what was behind the brilliant red and white of her complexion-- what thoughts?
30299It looks as if you''d got George for a hanger- on, eh?"
30299It stands to reason-- don''t it?"
30299It was the look of race, of the Bland breeding, of the tradition that questioned, not violently, but gently,"Can this be possible?"
30299It will be better to put it like this"--"What did you say, dear?"
30299It''s not a view, it''s a fact-- and what business has a lady got with a view anyway?
30299It''s strange-- ain''t it?--how easily a man''s hand turns against a woman once he''s gone out of his head?"
30299Marry her off?"
30299Marse Ben, ai n''t un''oman erbleeged ter teck her time off de same ez a man?"
30299Meanwhile, is n''t there something that I can do for you?
30299Miss Mitty?
30299My first fortune had been made in copper,--why not repeat it?
30299Never saw her in a rose- lined bonnet, did you, my dear?"
30299Now you never saw me lose my head, did you, eh, Ben?"
30299Now, Ben, tell me honestly which is the worse sinner, you or I?"
30299Now, did you ever hear of a man getting his heart broken or his brain cracked?"
30299Now, what do you suppose Miss Matoaca said to me on Sunday?
30299Of course, of course, but when?
30299Oh, Ben, do n''t you like it?"
30299Oh, Ben, my dearest, what is the matter?"
30299Or for that tiny scar like a dimple I''ve always adored?"
30299Or sympathise with the lust of battle when they had never encountered an obstacle?
30299Respect Miss Matoaca Bland?
30299Sally Mickleborough?
30299Sally, what is the trouble?"
30299Sally?"
30299Shall I get you a glass of wine?"
30299Shall I go away again?"
30299Shall I take them away?"
30299She appeared so still, so patient, that I wondered in amazement if she had sat there for hours, unchanged, unheeding, unapproachable?
30299She refused George, you know?"
30299She''s a good girl, and I like her, but who in the deuce wants to marry a fighting wife?
30299She''s very cruel is grandmama, is n''t she, mammy?"
30299She''s well, ai n''t she?"
30299She?
30299Shorn of my power, what remained to me that would make me his match?
30299Shot a man the first year he came back from France, did n''t he?"
30299So she called you common?"
30299So your lecture was n''t quite a success?"
30299Starr?"
30299Surely you got help?"
30299Tell her I must, and yet how could I tell her while the little cynical bloodshot eyes of the great man were upon us?
30299That old rocking- horse?
30299That will be in time?"
30299That''s a kind of starter, anyway, ai n''t it?"
30299The president of the Great South Midland and Atlantic Railroad is obliged to be a rich man, is n''t he?"
30299Then as I made no rejoinder, he added after a moment,"Do you think her mouth spoils her?
30299Then when I met you again it might have been just the way you look-- for oh, Ben, did you ever discover that you are splendid to look at?"
30299Then without meeting my eyes he asked in a voice that had a curiously muffled sound:--"It''s rough on Sally, is n''t it?
30299Then,"I''ve been ill,"I thought, and"Sally?
30299Then,"Is that you, Ben?"
30299Thomas, have you buttered that batch of muffins?"
30299To how many of us, after all, was it given to discern, not only immediate effects, but universal relations as well?
30299To myself?
30299To the General?
30299To you, Sally?"
30299Until you have seen a man fight can you know him?
30299Wall, wall, time does fly when you come to think of deaths, now, does n''t it?
30299Was I, for her also, merely a magnificent animal?
30299Was it God or the angels?
30299Was it possible to picture her in a common gown, with her sleeves rolled up and the perplexed and anxious look that poverty brings in her eyes?
30299Was it possible to win her again?
30299Was it the same place I had left only a few hours before, or what sudden change in myself had revealed to me the grim ugliness of its aspect?
30299Was my brain weakened permanently by the fever, I wondered?
30299Was she Bessy Randolph?"
30299Was she a gallant martyr to the inequalities of sex, who still clung, trembling, to the inequalities of society?
30299Was she merely kind to the boor in her house?
30299Was the final triumph of intellect due, in reality, to the accident of an unhappy love?
30299Was the trouble associated with George Bolingbroke?
30299Wat''s yo''name, suh?"
30299We''ll begin to be gay now, sha n''t we?
30299Well, confound you, boy, how did it ever occur to you to ask her?"
30299Well, you''re ready, Sally?
30299Were the ghosts moving up and down the terraces in the mazes of scented box, I wondered?
30299Were the ghosts of the dead Blands and Fairfaxes from whom she had sprung fighting over again their ancient battles in their descendant?
30299Were you far enough South, my dear, to see the yellow jessamine grow wild?
30299What can I do for you?"
30299What can she have, I ax, any mo''than she''s got?
30299What did she think of my boorishness?
30299What did we see except the possible opportunity, the room for the ego, the adjustment to selfish ends?
30299What did you do?"
30299What do I care for a dead arm that fought for a dead king?
30299What do you care about little girls?
30299What do you know of the coal fields at Wyanoke?"
30299What do you say to Europe?"
30299What do you say, Sally?"
30299What do you think I found on my desk this morning?
30299What do you think Theophilus is arguing about now?
30299What do you want of me?"
30299What does a woman want with rights, I say, when she can enjoy all the virtues?
30299What does it mean when anybody calls you common?"
30299What does she want to be standin''up for anyway as long as she can set?"
30299What has become of the established order if such a thing as this can happen to two unprotected Virginia ladies?"
30299What have slaves got to do with it?
30299What have you been doing all day long by yourself?"
30299What in the world put that into your head?"
30299What is it like?"
30299What is it?
30299What is it?"
30299What is the matter?"
30299What is yours?
30299What more does she want unless she''s a Yankee Abolitionist?"
30299What on earth has gone an''set that idee workin''inside yo''head?"
30299What on earth would you do with a paper?"
30299What right has he got, I asked, to suppose that any gentleman''s toe is n''t gouty?"
30299What rights does a woman want, anyway, I''d like to know, except the right to a husband?
30299What trouble?
30299What trouble?"
30299What was her praise of George except the confession of an appreciation of the very things that I could never possess?
30299What was the railroad to me, if I had lost Sally?
30299What was the secret of that exquisite patience, that perfect courtesy, which was confirmed by the heart, not by the lips?
30299What was this social barrier-- this aristocratic standard that could accept the General and reject such men as I?
30299What will you do, Ben?"
30299What''ll you do with him?"
30299What''s luck, after all, but the thing that enables a man to see a long way ahead?"
30299What''s that coming they''re making such a noise about?
30299What''s that?
30299What''s the matter?"
30299What''s the world coming to, I ask, when a maiden lady is n''t ashamed to know that a man leads an impure life?"
30299What''s your name, boy?"
30299Whatever it was, why did n''t she come to me and weep it out on my breast?
30299When did you begin?"
30299When do you think you''ll be home?"
30299Where are you rushing?
30299Where are your wits?"
30299Where did she come from?"
30299Where was the roguish humour now in the small watery grey eyes?
30299Where?"
30299Who else have I ever known that could compare with him for a minute?
30299Who put them in there?
30299Who was she, George?
30299Who''s your man?"
30299Whom did you go to?"
30299Whose are those you are wearing?"
30299Why are you so cruel?"
30299Why ca n''t I keep her out of my thoughts?"
30299Why did she wear a gingham apron at a ball instead of pink tarlatan?
30299Why do n''t you come upstairs?"
30299Why does n''t everybody love, I wonder?"
30299Why does n''t she go back to them?"
30299Why not ask Bessy Dandridge?"
30299Why not cut the whole thing and go West with me to- morrow in my car?
30299Why not to- morrow instead?
30299Why on earth did n''t you come to me sooner about it?"
30299Why should George have been given this trifle, which was associated with Sally, and which I had never seen?
30299Why was it that I who had won Sally should still remain so hopelessly divided from all that to which Sally by right and by nature belonged?
30299Why was it?
30299Why, do n''t you know every blessed word in the English language that begins with an_ a_?
30299Will he break his wings or will he fly out?"
30299Will you dance to- night?
30299Will you take me there this afternoon?"
30299Will you tell me what business it is of an unmarried lady''s whether a man leads an impure life or not?
30299Would I fail forever in little things because I had been cursed at birth by an inability to see any except big ones?
30299Would Miss Mitty''s or Miss Matoaca''s verdict, I wondered, have been as merciful, as large as hers?
30299Would n''t you rather keep it in bank as a nest- egg?"
30299Would the power in me that had captured her serve as well through a future of familiar possession as it had served in the supreme moment of conquest?
30299Would the thought of the boy I had been haunt forever the man I had become?
30299Would you like a string of pearls?"
30299Would you rather I should n''t keep them?"
30299Yo''ma was a decent, sober, hard- workin''person, wa''nt she, Benjy?"
30299You are n''t going to stand up in the middle of the room all night, old fellow, are you?"
30299You can even eat a strawberry without feeling it, I reckon?"
30299You did n''t see much of yo''pa durin''his last days, did you?"
30299You know Jessoms-- don''t you?
30299You may, who knows?"
30299You mean the half- drowned brat I wrapped up in yo''grandma''s old blanket shawl I set the muffin dough under?
30299You never saw Miss Matoaca Bland when she was a girl, Ben?"
30299You remember what Horace says--""Ah, I know, doctor, but did even Horace remember what he said while he was young?"
30299You remember your Plutarch?
30299You think it play now, but what will you feel when you know it''s earnest?"
30299You wanted me to marry George Bolingbroke, but what has he ever done to prove what he was worth?"
30299You wo n''t let her suffer because you''re too proud to take help?"
30299You''ll be wanting to push me out of my job next, I suppose?"
30299You''ll like that, wo n''t you?"

30299and were you put through the steps of the Highland Fling in vain?"

30299or had there been a deeper meaning in her divine smile-- in her suddenly lifted eyes?
30299repeated the woman, with a hiccough,"what''s home?"
30299she asked, facing the lamp as I turned;"did you mind my keeping the idea a secret?
30299she asked,"and will you remember to buy seed for my canary?"
30299she asked,"or would you rather dance?
30299she enquired,"or have you taken other lessons from the General besides those in speculations?"
30299she exclaimed, quickening her steps,"what are you doing out here in this terrible heat?"
