36175 | Why, Majer,ses he-- and he put on one of the queerest smiles I ever see on a man''s face--"don''t you know I have turned Dimmocrat?" |
36175 | Why,ses I,"Kernel, what could you do then?" |
36175 | Why,ses I,"Kernel, what makes you ask that questshin?" |
36175 | Why,ses I,"how is that?" |

36175 | ''Wal,''ses old Sol,''how do you make that out?'' |
36175 | After I got thru, ses I,"Kernel, what do you think of my dream?" |
36175 | After he he d gone, ses I,"Kernel, how many times has Seward he d the rebellyun suppressed?" |
36175 | After it was all over with and every thing had been decided on, ses Linkin, ses he,"Majer, do n''t you think that that is a capytal stratygim?" |

36175 | Ai n''t we gone by the Shanandore Vally, by Jeemes River, by Manasses, an yet we ca n''t get to Richmond? |
36175 | All the while the noise kept growin louder, an finally ses I,"Who on arth is that makin such a tarnal racket?" |
36175 | And did n''t they do it? |
36175 | Are you Union or Secesh?" |
36175 | At last, ses I,"Kernel, have you tried eny of that old rye lately?" |
36175 | At this Seward brushed up an asked him"what he meant?" |
36175 | But I told you to keep your temper, an not take it as personal, but only as a joak?" |
36175 | But what am I do? |
36175 | But what do you think about our goin up to the army an reviewin the sojers, and seein whether I ai nt jest as popelar as ever I was?" |
36175 | But, Major, how shall we go?" |
36175 | But,"ses I,"Kernel, I''me terribul tired after this trip, an what do you say to havin a little old rye before we go to bed?" |
36175 | But,"ses I,"do n''t you rekollect the story about''applyin the principle?''" |
36175 | Command us to delivur The land from slavery''s chane? |
36175 | Did n''t they say they would n''t fite to coerce the South? |
36175 | Did n''t they say they would only defend the Capital, and would n''t invade Virginia, and did n''t they do it?" |
36175 | Did you ever see a lot of hot swill put in a trough, an every single hog in the pen would go an stick in his snoot an get it burned? |
36175 | Do n''t they do as you desire?" |
36175 | Do n''t you hear de banjo? |
36175 | Do n''t you hear de banjo? |
36175 | Do n''t you hear de banjo? |
36175 | Do n''t you hear de banjo? |
36175 | Do n''t you hear de banjo? |
36175 | Do n''t you see,"ses I,"Kernel, how nice that would work? |
36175 | Do you suppose it would be dangerous for him to live down in Secesh, where they are burning_ cotton_ as fast as they kin?" |
36175 | Do you think your dog is good for foxes?'' |
36175 | Do you want to take any more elder- bark tea?" |
36175 | Does not grate Dr. Cheever,( And shall he speke in vain?) |
36175 | Finally he turned to me and ses he,"Majer, ca n''t you help me out of this scrape?" |
36175 | Finally ses he,"Majer, wat are you standin there for?" |
36175 | Finally, Mr. Linkin, ses he,"Majer, wat on erth shall I do?" |
36175 | Finally, he kicked his slipper off, and ses he,"Majer, do you know what good lether is?" |
36175 | Finally, ses he,"Wal, Majer, will we have to give up the Union after all?" |
36175 | Has that feller Stantin been cuttin up eny more of his capers? |
36175 | He asked Linkin what could be done? |
36175 | He caught rite hold of my hand, an ses he,"Majer, how are you? |
36175 | He cum into Linkin''s room, an the Kernel ses,"Have you heerd the news, Boss?" |
36175 | He went up, an ses he,''Who''s there?'' |
36175 | How can it be carried out?" |
36175 | How do you feel?" |
36175 | How many soldiers have you had?" |
36175 | I did n''t say it out loud, but I sed, ses I,"Boss, will you let me see whether there ai n''t sumthin rong about that?" |
36175 | I giv the tabel a rap with my hickory, and the Kernel stratened up jest like openin a jack nife, and ses he,"Was I asleep, Majer?" |
36175 | I see the Kernel had on a high- pressure excitement, and ses I,"Hold on a minnit, Kernel, and tell me what on arth''s the matter?" |
36175 | I told him that that was jist what Gineral Jackson always said--"Did he?" |
36175 | I took hold of her, and felt jest like shakin her to pieces, wen I axed her, ses I,"Topsey, why do n''t you be good?" |
36175 | If you will, it will be about as good a guide to you as ef I staid here all summer myself?" |
36175 | Instead of a hotel, they telled us we must cook our own vitals, and what do you think they giv us? |
36175 | Is it good?" |
36175 | Is she hedin up stream or side- ways? |
36175 | Jest a little while after breakfast, who should come in but Seward? |
36175 | Jones, did you strike Tom Smith yesterday?'' |
36175 | McClellan bein compelled to retreat from Richmond, they all thought that France and England would interfere, and what was to be done? |
36175 | Now which shall it be? |
36175 | Now, that preserver saved your life, did n''t it?" |
36175 | Now, the rale question is, Why have we failed? |
36175 | Now, what is the cause of the failure?" |
36175 | Now, what on arth am I to do?" |
36175 | Now,"ses I,"ef L- i- n- k- i- n do n''t spell Linkin, what on arth does it spell?" |
36175 | One day I went into the Kernel''s room, an seein he looked kinder blue about the gills, ses I,"Kernel, what''s the matter?" |
36175 | One day the Kernel ses to me, ses he,"Majer, what do you think about McClellan''s new base on the Jeemes River?" |
36175 | Presidint?" |
36175 | Pretty soon a man cum along, an ses he,"Deacon, do n''t you know that the worst showers and hurry- canes we have always cum from the West? |
36175 | Purty soon the Kernel''s eyes began to look wild, and ses he,"Majer, where do we land next? |
36175 | Ses I,"Ai n''t it jist as easy to say that we''re goin on a military tower of obsevashin?" |
36175 | Ses I,"Did he tech this?" |
36175 | Ses I,"Did n''t you ever have a hole in that pocket for a day or two, and had to put your pocket- book in sum other?" |
36175 | Ses I,"Did you kick em down stairs?" |
36175 | Ses I,"Do n''t your Cabbynet agree in your policy? |
36175 | Ses I,"How is that?" |
36175 | Ses I,"Is Burnside whipped agin, or is Stonewall Jackson in our rear?" |
36175 | Ses I,"Is that fair, Kernel, to burden posterity in that fashun?" |
36175 | Ses I,"Is that it, Kernel?" |
36175 | Ses I,"Kernel, ai n''t you gettin the ager?" |
36175 | Ses I,"Kernel, do n''t you know that you said in your inaugerole that you had no rite to interfere with slavery, an that you did n''t intend to?" |
36175 | Ses I,"Kernel, do n''t you know there is one way to get to Richmond that you ai n''t tried yet?" |
36175 | Ses I,"Kernel, do you expect Dimmicrats are goin to support you on freein the niggers?" |
36175 | Ses I,"Kernel, do you want me to help write your messige?" |
36175 | Ses I,"Kernel, is black your favorite color?" |

36175 | Ses I,"What do n''t you see?" |
36175 | Ses I,"What is the debt now?" |
36175 | Ses I,"What is the matter, dear Topsey?" |
36175 | Ses I,"What possesses you to act so?" |
36175 | Ses I,"What was it?" |
36175 | Ses I,"What was that?" |
36175 | Ses I,"Who is me? |
36175 | Ses I,"Why do n''t you change''em?" |
36175 | Ses Linkin, ses he,"Majer, are you whistlin to keep your courage up?" |
36175 | Ses Linkin,"What''s the matter, Majer?" |
36175 | Ses he to me, kinder funnin me I thought, ses he,"Majer, will you make a bet with me?" |
36175 | Ses he,"Did I, Majer? |
36175 | Ses he,"Have I got the boot- jack?" |
36175 | Ses he,"Have the rebils took Saint Lewis?" |
36175 | Ses he,"How is that, Major? |
36175 | Ses he,"How was that, Majer?" |
36175 | Ses he,"How was that?" |
36175 | Ses he,"Majer, did you ever hear of the story of a man who caught a panther by the tail?" |
36175 | Ses he,"Majer, do you know why a man''s face is like the eend of an old- fashioned house?" |
36175 | Ses he,"Majer, do you know why you and Seward and Stantin rollin me on the floor were like men spredin hay in a meadow?" |
36175 | Ses he,"Majer, how do you know it was made for white men?" |
36175 | Ses he,"Majer, what do you mean by edicated fools?" |
36175 | Ses he,"Majer, which way does the shootin cum from?" |
36175 | Ses he,"Majer, you''re rite, an what kin I do for you this mornin?" |
36175 | Ses he,"Major, what would we do if Linkin dies, for he''s the only one of us left that the peeple''s got eny faith in at all?" |
36175 | Ses he,"What is it?" |
36175 | Ses he,"What on arth has that to do with the subjeck?" |
36175 | Ses he,"What''s that?" |
36175 | Ses he,"What''s your quandary?" |
36175 | Ses he,"What?" |
36175 | Ses he,"Why not, Majer?" |
36175 | Ses the Deacon, ses he,"How was that, Majer?" |
36175 | Ses the Kernel to me, the other day, ses he,"Majer, what do you think that military strutegy consists in?" |
36175 | Ses the Kernel, ses he,"How much was that?" |
36175 | Shall we whose harts are litened With Rye, and cake and wine, Shall we to Cuff and Dinah Give nought but crust and rine? |
36175 | So he called the feller in putty bad close, who does chores around the White House, and asked him if he''d seen it? |
36175 | So what''s to be done?" |
36175 | Suppose they go thar?" |
36175 | The Kernel looked at it very sharp, an ses he,"Majer, you ai nt going to give me rale fence to drink, are you? |
36175 | The next mornin, when I went in the room where the Kernel was, ses he,"Majer, you look oncommon serious this mornin; what''s the matter?" |
36175 | The question is, what is to be done?" |
36175 | The very next day after the meeting, what do you think happened? |
36175 | There''s Libery, how would that do, Major?" |
36175 | Wat tho''the army hosses Die off for want of food? |

36175 | Wen I arriv, ses I,"Kernel, what''s the matter?" |
36175 | Wen I handed them to the Kernel, ses he,"Majer, does Chase expect me to survive after studyin out these figgers?" |
36175 | Wen I sed this, the Deacon knocked the ashes out of his pipe, an ses he,"Wal, Majer, wat do you think the war will amount to, enyhow?" |
36175 | Wen I thought he was in purty good humor, ses I,"Kernel, why did you remove McClellin?" |
36175 | Wen I went in, the Kernel had his cote off and his sleeves rolled up, an ses he,"Majer, do you know where I kin get a first- rate axe?" |
36175 | Wen Linkin saw the name on the bottle,"Mr. Cotton, 306 Washington street, N.Y.,"ses he,"Major, do you think this is loyal wiskey?" |
36175 | Wen he did speak, ses he,"Majer, what do these last words''in partickelar''mean?" |
36175 | Wen he sed that I jumped rite up with my hickory, an ses I,"Ai n''t your name Salmon?" |
36175 | Wen they heered that, it did n''t suit em at all, and a good meny yelled out,"Who are you?" |
36175 | What is the cause of it? |
36175 | What is the use of a President when the ballot- box ai nt of half so much account as the cartridge- box? |
36175 | What is the use of a President when there''s a standin army? |

36175 | When I sed this, Stantin, who is quick as a flash, jumped up, an ses he,"Majer, do you mean to say that we are devils tryin to catch the South?" |
36175 | When I went in, ses I,"''Kiah, what on airth is the matter?" |
36175 | While it was goin down, you looked kinder anxious at Chase, and ses you,''Chase, think it will stay down?'' |

33335 | And who told_ you_ all this, Abe? |
33335 | But a statement was given out by Major Higginson that--"Who''s Major Higginson? |
33335 | But do n''t you suppose that lazy people read the newspapers the same like anybody else, Abe? |
33335 | But do n''t you think in a great number of cases, Mawruss, beer is drunk to squench thirst? |
33335 | But do them other German newspapers get paid by the German government for reprinting Mr. Ridder''s articles? |
33335 | But if everybody else followed the same plan, Mawruss,Abe commented,"what show is going to run three months?" |
33335 | But in that case, how many Liberty Bonds could the diamond merchant, the automobile- manufacturer, or the furrier buy? |
33335 | But this is a democracy, Abe,Morris said,"so who cares if he is in Society or not?" |
33335 | But what I do n''t understand is: where does Lord Northcliff come in to be neglecting his newspapers the way he does? |
33335 | But why should the grand jury investigate only the advertising? 33335 But you do n''t mean to tell me that the people which stands up down- stairs and buys seats in the gallery is also looking for publicity?" |
33335 | But you do n''t think anything like that would happen to our Society fellers, Mawruss? |
33335 | Can you imagine how much money one of them aviators over in the old country ought to draw under such a wage scale? |
33335 | Can you imagine the way the Kaiser feels? |
33335 | Could n''t a street be lighted up and still be respectable? |
33335 | Did I say he did n''t? |
33335 | Did I say it was n''t? |
33335 | Did I say it was n''t? |
33335 | Did I say it was n''t? |
33335 | Did I say they did? |
33335 | Did n''t you know that the Czar''s wife is the Kaiser''s mother''s sister''s daughter? |
33335 | Did the Czar marry into such a family? |
33335 | Did you see on the front page of all the newspapers this morning where Klaw& Erlanger has had another split with the Shuberts, Mawruss? |
33335 | Do you mean to say that women not having the vote puts our government in the same class with Germany? |
33335 | Do you mean to say there''s a death- bed scene in every one of them operas? |
33335 | Do you suppose for one moment that the Kaiser had got so much as an inkling that they were going to elect a mayor in New York? 33335 Even when we are only_ talking_ about food you could n''t restrain yourself, so what must it be like when you''ve got the food actually on the table? |
33335 | Even when your wife''s relations are honest, what_ is_ it? |
33335 | Has the advertising business also been affected by the war? |
33335 | How could a feller like you become a Socialist? 33335 How much do you think a Prime Minister draws, Mawruss-- a million a week?" |
33335 | If you would throw a ball up in the air, why does it come down? |
33335 | Is he an ambassador or something? |
33335 | Is that so? |
33335 | Is the Kaiser learning something from what they done to the Czar? |
33335 | Is this a time to read about baseball? |
33335 | It seems to me that if we saw we could n''t accomplish nothing by going on fighting, Mawruss, we''d stop, ai n''t it? |
33335 | Me and Feigenbaum? |
33335 | Not even when the facts is against them? |
33335 | Say, looky here, Mawruss,Abe retorted,"are we living in Germany or America? |
33335 | Say, looky here,Morris said,"let me alone, will you? |
33335 | Since when did I kick that we should n''t do no advertising? |
33335 | So how could you blame a Prime Minister if he did n''t suspect what Germany was up to when she bought that sand- bank? |
33335 | Stomach trouble? |
33335 | Suppose they are war- times,Abe retorted,"must everybody act like they had diabetes? |
33335 | Tell me, Abe,Morris asked,"what do you think the laws of gravity is, anyhow? |
33335 | The people knows that--"Who is saying anything about the people? |
33335 | The poor feller had to tell''em something, did n''t he? 33335 Then it''s your idea that on account of the war people should eat only them foods which they do n''t like?" |
33335 | Then what does she go on fighting for? |
33335 | Then what is your idee of a good show, anyway? |
33335 | Then why do n''t the feller which runs the orchestra let her keep it up? |
33335 | Then why knock the feller? |
33335 | Then you ai n''t in favor that people should give their money to the Red Cross? |
33335 | Well, I was right, was n''t I? |
33335 | Well, ai n''t it? |
33335 | Well, ai n''t it? |
33335 | Well, how are all them loafers going to buy Liberty Bonds if they would n''t get their money that way? |
33335 | Well, how did he find the national currency, Abe? |
33335 | Well, if this here Czernin ai n''t the broker representing Austria and Germany, what is he? 33335 Well, what is an expert to do, Abe?" |
33335 | Well, what is the use of being in Society if you could n''t rub it in on people who ai n''t? |
33335 | Well, what''s the difference? |
33335 | Well, what_ did_ he break it on, then? |
33335 | Well, why did n''t the Shipping Commission build a sample ship from yellow pine? |
33335 | Well, you do n''t think this here Garfield would close up the country for five days unless it would be necessary, ai n''t it? |
33335 | What are you talking about-- brokers? |
33335 | What are you trying to tell me-- that such a newspaper would be allowed to exist in Berlin, Germany? |
33335 | What are you worrying your head about what they put in the papers? |
33335 | What big battle was that, Mawruss? |
33335 | What difference does that make? |
33335 | What do you mean-- a feller like me? |
33335 | What do you mean-- baseball? |
33335 | What do you mean-- down to sixty- eight degrees? |
33335 | What do you mean-- drown her out before she starts? |
33335 | What do you mean-- natural causes? |
33335 | What do you mean-- nowadays? |
33335 | What do you mean-- put them wise? |
33335 | What do you mean-- the Constitution protects them? |
33335 | What do you mean--_could_ of got? |
33335 | What do you mean--_have_ stomach trouble? |
33335 | What do you think-- a New York grand jury has got nothing else to investigate for the rest of the twentieth century except one war bazaar? |
33335 | What does a first- class A- number- one lawyer like Root care about facts if they ai n''t in his favor? |
33335 | What does it mean then? |
33335 | What for? |
33335 | What is that? |
33335 | What is the use of talking pipe dreams? |
33335 | What''s that? |
33335 | What''s the matter with him? |
33335 | Whereas, when you come away from one of them musical pieces, what do you have to show for it, Abe? |
33335 | Who is Sophia? |
33335 | Who said he is knocking plays, Mawruss? |
33335 | Why do n''t he let the shipping- clerk do up the packing- cases? |
33335 | Why do n''t they call it Lillian Russell and be done with it? |
33335 | Why not? |
33335 | Why not? |
33335 | Why so? |
33335 | Why_ Southern_ cooking? |
33335 | Yes? |
33335 | You do n''t mean we should put through that law for the three brightest men in the country to run it? |
33335 | You mean to say that_ again_ the people do n''t begin to realize we are at war? |
33335 | You mean to say we allow these here fellers to get up on soap- boxes and say such things like that? |
33335 | _ Aber_ do n''t you think that a face massage is its own punishment, Abe? |
33335 | _ Aber_ what about light wines? |
33335 | _ Aber_ what good would that do them? |
33335 | _ Aber_ what is the difference between a professional expert and a professional cricket,_ anyway_? |
33335 | _ Also_ a relative of the Kaiser? |
33335 | ''Ai n''t it cooked right?'' |
33335 | ''Here under date July second, nineteen sixteen, it stand an item: To blowing up munitions plant$ 10,000 Who did you get to do it? |
33335 | ''_ Moost_ you got to employ union spies? |

33335 | Am I right or wrong, Mawruss?" |

33335 | Am I right or wrong?" |
33335 | Am I right or wrong?" |
33335 | Am I right or wrong?" |
33335 | Am I right or wrong?" |
33335 | And Hindenberg says:''Where did they get_ that_ dope? |
33335 | And the chances is that ninety- nine out of a hundred people ai n''t even going to say to themselves,''Where did I hear that name before?''" |

47400 | Of whom are you speaking? |
47400 | Of_ what_? |
47400 | Oh, what is this, Frank? |
47400 | Pray, Mr. Shipkins, do you remember the number of the coach in which Mr. Heartwell left here last night? |
47400 | Pray,said the magistrate, addressing the coachman,"had you sufficient light or opportunity to observe the person of the officer?" |
47400 | Shall we take possession of the land, in the name of his most Christian Majesty? |
47400 | Shipkins has been taken,said Mr. Wendover,"and he has confessed--?" |
