34097 | Must we keep many servants to wait upon each other? |
34097 | Or luncheons in Italy, under a pergola of vines, where a melon, macaroni, a basket of grapes, and a tricolour salad constituted the feast? |
34097 | She can not cook, how should she? |
34097 | The question meets us on the threshold, who is to answer the door? |
34097 | What are they to be, or not to be? |
34097 | What do the twelve years do for our girls? |
34097 | What have they learnt, and what can they do? |
34097 | What is the best training for girls? |
34097 | What makes Paris flourish? |
34097 | What should we say to a nurse or a governess who neglected them as we do, and how shall we answer for our lack of care? |
34097 | Who will be the slave of the ring? |
34097 | Why do we all enjoy it? |
34097 | Why have we so seldom the courage to follow this example? |
34097 | Why must girls have their hair brushed and braided for them? |
34097 | Why must their lost gloves be found for them, and their wardrobes tidily arranged for them to throw into confusion in their hurry? |
34097 | Why should not the sideboard be, if necessary, as large as the side of the room? |
34097 | Why should people who have dined late be supposed to want supper, unless they have been dancing, or are sitting up later than is good for them? |
34097 | Why should they, for instance, require hot water brought to their rooms several times a day? |
34097 | Why should we add these things to life? |
34097 | Why, indeed? |
34097 | Why, then, should we make so much difference between them where Nature has created none? |
34097 | Will Greek strengthen the character more than German? |
36781 | [ 9] Now how is this most desirable end to be attained? 36781 Again we ask, Why? 36781 And first, what is its proper starting- point? 36781 And, again, how does all this bear on the equipment of women? 36781 Are the top rooms of a thatched cottage warmer or colder than the top rooms of a house covered with slates? 36781 But is it safe to assume that the same would be the case in the household of a simple knight? 36781 For what is the message of scientific hygiene to the parent and householder of the twentieth century? 36781 For what reason has it opposed such a resistant surface to the manipulations of the reformer or to the coercions of the official? 36781 How could it be otherwise? 36781 How often are they most sorely abused and unwisely taxed? 36781 How, then, are we to describe the domestic life of the various sections of rural society at this time? 36781 If the iron walls were twice as thick, what would be the effect inside the room? 36781 If, for instance, the thermometer is placed in front of the fire at a distance, say of four feet from it, what will its reading indicate? 36781 In what way, it will be asked, can individual capacity for health be gauged? 36781 Is a wooden or an iron building warmer? 36781 Is it so? 36781 Is sanitary legislation therefore a failure, or by what means can light from the sun of knowledge penetrate this dense mass of ignorance and apathy? 36781 METHOD OF STUDY What should be the method of this study? 36781 Or again: When did the custom of building houses to let on rent first become general in England? 36781 Shall the stoves be of slate or iron? 36781 Should this be tolerated any longer? 36781 Taking England, for example-- how do we stand with other countries in this respect? 36781 The problem of how to let in air and keep out fog suggests the question, What is fog? 36781 The question may arise why we should feel this when the room is heated by a stove and not when it is heated by an open fire? 36781 To what general causes may such deterioration be attributed? 36781 To what must we ascribe this? 36781 What are to be the types and examples of organisms studied? 36781 What change in the manner of use justifies making them of earthenware or India- rubber? 36781 What difference does it make if the iron building is lined with wood? 36781 What would be the effect of interchanging the materials? 36781 What, it may now be asked, is to be done to counteract these disadvantages and dangers? 36781 When will the fallacy be destroyed which gauges the strength of a disinfectant by the pungency of its odour? 36781 When will the value of good work cease to be measured by the exhaustion it brings about or the breakdown to which it conduces? 36781 Wherein then lies the difference between the pig and the baby? 36781 Why, for instance, is it customary to bake bread at home in some districts and to buy it from a shop in others? 36781 Why, then, does it remain unpopular? 36781 Will it be the temperature of the air of the room or the temperature of the fire, or if neither, what will it be? 36781 Would it be possible to use the Norwegian stove as a refrigerator? 36781 Would it keep an ice pudding cold without any alteration? 36781 Would the walls of such a building be always dry inside? 36781 [ 113] Should not parents inform themselves diligently on these matters? 36781 and( 2) Does the sun put the fire out, and if so how? 36781 at what age is intelligent supervision most important? 36781 to what degree can the power to progress or to resist encroachments be strengthened? 12366 What difference does that make in the style and price?" |
12366 | And anyway it is a part of the progress of the age, and what are we to do about it? |
12366 | And in what direction are we to look for the coming advance? |
12366 | Are the people growing more healthy, well- favored, well- proportioned, stronger, happier? |
12366 | Are we become too sensitive to little things? |
12366 | Are you to keep three servants or none? |
12366 | But if we eliminate the house itself, and the heavy furniture from the"home"possessions, what have we left? |
12366 | But what shelter can this refined, intelligent family find to- day for$ 400? |
12366 | But will he be willing to do them? |
12366 | Do we imagine we show our higher civilization by discerning with the little princess the pea under twenty- four feather beds? |
12366 | Do you wish back stairs? |
12366 | Do you wish the rooms separate or connecting? |
12366 | Gloves? |
12366 | Has he a moral right to bring unhappiness to his wife and two children? |
12366 | Has selfishness also? |
12366 | Having been caught in the trap, why give him all the blame if he tries to increase his income by speculation? |
12366 | How shall it be managed so as to be in harmony with present- day demands? |
12366 | If not, then is there not a fallacy in the common idea that more money spent means a fuller life? |
12366 | If the young couple have saved or inherited between them, say,$ 3000, shall they build a home with it? |
12366 | In any city well known to my readers how many streets bear the same aspect as five years ago? |
12366 | In any suburban village made familiar by the trolley how many houses are the same as five years ago? |
12366 | In the city? |
12366 | Indeed is any part of the house, as we now most frequently find it, adapted to the uses of the twentieth century? |
12366 | Is it not merely because certain would- be leaders choose to live beyond their means in company with those who are able to spend more? |
12366 | Is it not more honest? |
12366 | Is it perchance one reason, if not the chief, why manners have degenerated? |
12366 | Is there any reason why we should be satisfied with it or happy in it? |
12366 | Is this increased cost resulting in higher efficiency? |
12366 | Is this neglect to go on, or is man to turn before it is too late to a cultivation of the effective life? |
12366 | Is this productive work? |
12366 | It is as important as book- keeping; for of what avail are money and business, if the home life is perilled? |
12366 | The one question every person asks when these suggested improvements are discussed is, but how much will it cost? |
12366 | These are necessary adjuncts to what is held as merely decent living;_ how_ can the$ 2000 man have them, not why_ will_ he not? |
12366 | This is not an essential consequence, but will it be so impossible to have a certain similarity in the dwellings of like- minded people? |
12366 | What can the man with limited income do but avoid the responsibility of a family? |
12366 | What is to be done with them? |
12366 | What is to be done? |
12366 | What is twentieth- century housekeeping? |
12366 | What is worth while? |
12366 | What remedy so long as millions sleep in closets with no air- currents passing through? |
12366 | What wonder that the young people find themselves in debt by the second year? |
12366 | What wonder the white plague is always with us? |
12366 | Where is the boasted adaptability of the American? |
12366 | Where then do we stand? |
12366 | Who shall say? |
12366 | Who will make the practical advance? |
12366 | Why is there so much dirt brought into the house? |
12366 | Why is there so much lint? |
12366 | Why is this particular region unfashionable? |
12366 | Why not be honest and happy? |
12366 | Why should the hospital monopolize the materials for antiseptic work? |
12366 | With these figures in mind, what can our$ 2000 family with two children do? |
12366 | Yes, but what does it save? |
41940 | ''But does n''t your wife object?'' 41940 And the sponsors?" |
41940 | Are you coming with me? |
41940 | Do you come so late? |
41940 | Had we better wear rubbers? |
41940 | Is there anything further? |
41940 | Is there anything further? |
41940 | Is there anything further? |
41940 | Perhaps you write poetry yourself? |
41940 | That is, on a week day? |
41940 | Well, what else? |
41940 | What shall he be called? |
41940 | Why did you do it? |
41940 | Yes, but what do you do? |
41940 | You seem to think a sight of Burns? 41940 : 12 cans pineapple 2.40 6 lemons.10 Sugar.65? 41940 At last each inquired of the others,Well, are you ready?" |
41940 | Can they engage at once and successfully in some congenial occupation? |
41940 | Can we help you to prove it now? |
41940 | Did you ever stop to consider what a mandatory phrase"strawberry time"is? |
41940 | Do n''t you think so? |
41940 | Do our schools fit or unfit our youth for life''s real work? |
41940 | Does it not follow that the only life worth living is that which is actuated by a real purpose, a lofty ideal, a clear vision? |
41940 | Even as a boarder of no kin whatever to his landlady, is he likely to be as comfortable as in the workhouse? |
41940 | For what do we choose our legislators? |
41940 | Four- sevenths of a flower is what part of speech? |
41940 | Have you obtained one yet? |
41940 | How could it help being so, with such children and a certain sure thing to do?" |
41940 | I never have cleared over five hundred a year, but what more do I need? |
41940 | Is acceptance of such pension outside of a workhouse more honorable than being dependent on Government for support inside the workhouse? |
41940 | Is it possible to think of a marriage resulting well that does not begin in truth, and continue in truth? |
41940 | Is it to squander or conserve the revenues and resources of the State? |
41940 | Is n''t that worth something? |
41940 | Jack received my volley of opposing arguments, not only with fortitude but with apparent satisfaction, and simply said,"Have you finished?" |
41940 | The minister remained sitting a long time in silence; finally he asked gently,"What are you now going to do, Thord?" |
41940 | Then why not make your bed as comfortable as it can be made? |
41940 | This medley next is drenched with oil, And lemon juice combined, The hollow skins are then filled up-- Or, shall we say, relined? |
41940 | To have your jellies come out right-- no mistakes, no reboiling, no worry, no fret-- what would n''t a woman give to insure such a result? |
41940 | To this the pastor remained silent, but after a while he asked:"What is your errand this evening?" |
41940 | Tomato( Aspic?) |
41940 | Upstairs they all went again; much talk and another half hour passed when each made the declaration,"Well, I am ready, are you?" |
41940 | Was she a young woman after all? |
41940 | What European ruler was interested in"The Congo"? |
41940 | What adult, with reason, goes about seeking advice upon matrimony? |
41940 | What did Adam lose? |
41940 | What do with it? |
41940 | What does the cat have? |
41940 | What fowls are associated with the Pilgrim Fathers? |

41940 | What shall I take?" |
41940 | What size will be suitable?" |
41940 | Which do you think would be better, Mary, a basket or a pail?" |
41940 | Who is going to house, feed and clothe them for five shillings a week? |
41940 | Why did we dissemble? |
41940 | Why do n''t ye drive yer cattle up an''let''em look at yer green blinds an''hear yer clock strike?" |
41940 | Will you chart the flower- strewn lea? |
41940 | Will you curb your pride, will you keep the faith, The faith of my company? |
41940 | Will you meet my wish, will you walk my way? |
41940 | Yes, how could it help being thus with such a spirit at work to bring it about? |
21829 | What manner of persons, then, ought we to be,in attempting to sustain so solemn, so glorious a responsibility? |
21829 | And is it not as important, to endow institutions which shall make a superior education accessible to all classes,--for females, as for the other sex? |
21829 | And is it not right for domestics, as well as their employers, to seek places, where they can be most comfortable? |
21829 | And so they can get books on Chemistry and Philosophy, and study them out of school; but_ will_ they do it? |
21829 | And why is it not right, for domestics to act according to a rule, allowed to be correct in reference to all other trades and professions? |
21829 | And why ought we not to make sure of the most necessary knowledge, and let the less needful be omitted? |
21829 | Are such momentous interests to be advanced or retarded, just in proportion as we are faithful to our high trust? |
21829 | Are we, then, a spectacle to the world? |
21829 | But are not the most responsible of all duties committed to the charge of woman? |
21829 | But what is the rule of rectitude, on this subject? |
21829 | But what was the grand peculiarity of the character of Christ? |
21829 | But where are the American mothers, who can reach this period unfaded and unworn? |
21829 | But who shall take the higher, and who the subordinate, stations in social and civil life? |
21829 | But whose business is it to see that these young females are not huddled into crowded rooms? |
21829 | But why should that knowledge, most needful for daily comfort, most liable to be in demand, be the only study omitted, because it may be forgotten? |
21829 | Can not you compare this with the time and money you spend for intellectual and benevolent purposes? |
21829 | Do not young ladies learn, from books, how to make hydrogen and oxygen? |
21829 | Do they not have pictures of furnaces, alembics, and the various utensils employed in_ cooking_ the chemical agents? |
21829 | Does a woman say she can not do this? |
21829 | Has the Eternal Lawgiver appointed us to work out a problem, involving the destiny of the whole earth? |
21829 | How can American Women rectify any real Disadvantages involved in our Civil Institutions? |
21829 | How else are young ladies to learn to make purchases properly, and to be systematic and economical? |
21829 | In making this examination, is not this brief rule, deducible from the principles before laid down, the one which should regulate you? |
21829 | In what Respects are Women subordinate? |
21829 | Is it asked, how can young ladies paint, play the piano, and study, when their hands and dresses must be unfitted by such drudgery? |
21829 | Is it not her profession to take care of mind, body, and soul? |
21829 | Is it not the universal law of labor and of trade, that an article is to be valued, according to its scarcity and the demand? |
21829 | Is it objected, How can we decide between superfluities and necessaries, in this list? |
21829 | Is it said, that those, who wish to rise early, can go to their employments before breakfast? |
21829 | It may then be asked, How many mothers_ actually do_ give their daughters instruction in the various branches of Domestic Economy? |
21829 | Shall we ape the customs of aristocratic lands, in those very practices which result from principles and institutions that we condemn? |
21829 | Shall we assume, by our practice, that the interests of the great mass are to be sacrificed for the pleasures and honors of a privileged few? |
21829 | Shall we form our customs on the principle that labor is degrading, and indolence genteel? |
21829 | The constantly- recurring inquiry,''What will be_ the use_ of this study?'' |
21829 | The first, is that presented by our Saviour, when, after urging the great law of benevolence, He was asked,"and who is my neighbor?" |
21829 | Wherein are they equal or superior in Influence? |
21829 | Why is not the human skeleton as curious and interesting as the air- pump; and the action of the brain, as the action of a steam- engine? |
21829 | Why may not the structure of the human body, and the laws of health deduced therefrom, be as well taught as the laws of natural philosophy? |
21829 | Why not? |
21829 | Why, then, should not that science and art, which a woman is to practise during her whole life, be studied and recited? |
21829 | and how are they placed by Courtesy? |
21829 | and that, too, at the most critical of all periods of existence? |
21829 | and why? |
21829 | and will not this show the need of some change? |
21829 | or that their manners, principles, and morals, are properly regulated? |
21829 | or that they do not sleep in ill- ventilated chambers? |
21829 | or that they have healthful food? |
21829 | or that they have the requisite amount of fresh air and exercise? |
21829 | or that they pursue an appropriate and systematic course of study? |
36498 | Do you think that there are spaces, other than windows, which could be satisfactorily divided according to the same measurements? |

36498 | Where could you find an illustration in which you think there is particularly pleasing space division? 36498 Can one always be sure of the most becoming thing to buy even when shopping in person? 36498 Coats? 36498 Do you agree with Arnold Bennett? 36498 Do you like this scarf? 36498 Do you think that the arrangements which we decided are most pleasing from the inside are equally pleasing from the outside? |
36498 | Does the notebook provide for worthwhile individual experience? |
36498 | For example, which of these questions would probably arouse the most animated discussion:"What is art?" |
36498 | Hats? |
36498 | Have you ever heard some one say,"Mary''s new dress is lovely but the color is not becoming to her"? |
36498 | Have you ever seen a store window that reminded you of a circus? |
36498 | Have you ever seen combinations of color in nature that were not pleasing? |
36498 | Her argument was,"What difference does it make? |
36498 | How can she determine the length of candle that would be most suitable when they are used on the buffet?" |
36498 | How can these results be measured? |
36498 | How can you insure success for yourself? |
36498 | How could she determine the most becoming depth for her cape collar?" |
36498 | How deep on the waist do you think a yoke should come to be most attractive?" |
36498 | How do you suggest cutting it so that it can be used in this frame and still retain its pleasing proportions?" |
36498 | How has the artist emphasized it? |
36498 | How may we make better use of nature''s examples? |
36498 | In which of the store windows on Center Street do you think the merchant has displayed his merchandise to the greatest advantage? |
36498 | In which of these pieces of china do you think the design is in harmony with the shape of the dish and would make a suitable background for food? |
36498 | Is this calendar pleasing in proportion? |
36498 | MEASURING RESULTS How can the degree to which art training is functioning in the lives of the girls and women be determined? |
36498 | Morgan[19] pertinently discusses the artificial versus the real: Some say"What about painted weeds and grasses?" |
36498 | Of what value would it be for her to make a permanent record of these illustrations? |
36498 | SELECTION AND SOURCE What are the factors governing the choice of illustrative material? |
36498 | Since there is so much variation, how can we be sure that curtains are tied back in the most attractive way possible?" |
36498 | The initial question would probably be:"Which of these two arrangements, A and B, do you think contributes most to the appearance of the window?" |
36498 | The question may then be asked,"Would you like to find out what makes some articles more beautiful than others?" |
36498 | This cushion? |
36498 | This picture? |
36498 | To what extent can our likes guide our choices? |
36498 | To what extent will laboratory problems function in meeting pupils''needs? |

36498 | Why ca n''t everyone select just the things she likes?" |
36498 | Why do girls and women prefer to go to the store to select dresses or dress material? |
36498 | Why do people ever choose unbecoming colors? |
36498 | Why do they feel justified in making such expenditures to introduce the single new quality of color? |
36498 | Why is that piece more pleasing than the other two? |
36498 | Why is there some disagreement? |
36498 | Why not? |

36498 | Why?" |
36498 | Why?" |
36498 | Will it be helpful to us to know how to divide a window space with curtains? |
36498 | Will it pay in terms of time and energy expended? |
36498 | Will you bring such an illustration to class?" |
36498 | Would you like to be able to select colors becoming to you? |
6598 | Do n''t like the butter, sir? 6598 ''Are the Sisters of Charity really better nurses than most other women?'' 6598 ''Why should it be so?'' 6598 And is it not right for domestics, as well as their employers, to seek places where they can be most comfortable? 6598 And why is it not right for domestics to act according to a rule allowed to be correct in reference to all other trades and professions? 6598 Are they not living just as if there were no great emergency, no terrible risks and danger to their fellow- men in the life to, come? 6598 Are you sure, my friend? 6598 But do they? 6598 But how would it be with the Protestant woman practicing such self- denial? 6598 But to a tourist taking like chance in American country- fare, what is the prospect? 6598 But what is the rule of rectitude on this subject? 6598 But what was the grand peculiarity of the character of Christ? 6598 Can not you compare this with the time and money you spend for intellectual and benevolent purposes? 6598 Does a woman say she can not do this? 6598 Does it not seem poor economy to pay servants for letting our muscles grow feeble, and then to pay operators to exercise them for us? 6598 If our daughters did as much for us, should we not be proud of their energy and heroism? 6598 In making this examination, is not this brief rule, deducible from the principles before laid down, the one which should regulate you? 6598 Is it not the universal law of labor and of trade that an article is to be valued according to its scarcity and the demand? 6598 Is it not time that civilization should learn to demand somewhat more care and nicety in the modes of preparing what is to be cooked and eaten? 6598 Is it objected, How can we decide between superfluities and necessities, in this list? 6598 Is not such an art as this worth much to attain? 6598 Might not some of the refinement and trimness which characterize the preparations of the European market be with advantage introduced into our own? 6598 Moreover, would not the fine arts, in the end, he better supported by imparting culture and refined tastes to the neglected ones? 6598 Now, what is the matter with domestic service? 6598 Query, Do they sleep with closed windows and doors, and with heavy bed- curtains? 6598 Shall it be blue? 6598 Shall it be crimson? 6598 Shall it be green? 6598 Shall we ape the customs of aristocratic lands, in those very practices which result from principles and institutions that we condemn? 6598 Shall we assume, by our practice, that the interests of the great mass are to be sacrificed for the pleasures and honors of a privileged few? 6598 Shall we form our customs on the assumption that labor is degrading and indolence genteel? 6598 The French coffee is reputed the best in the world; and a thousand voices have asked, What is it about the French coffee? 6598 The first is that presented by our Saviour, when, after urging the great law of benevolence, he was asked,And who is my neighbor?" |
6598 | Thus the question is, Shall we shut up a chamber and breathe night air vitiated with carbonic acid or night air that is pure? |
6598 | To begin, then, with the very foundation of a good table:--_Bread:_ What ought it to be? |
6598 | Was this doing_ more_ than her duty--_more_ than the example and teachings of Christ require? |
6598 | What is the coffee? |
6598 | What is the relation of servant to employer in a democratic country? |
6598 | What was now to be done? |
6598 | What, then, is the end designed by the family state which Jesus Christ came into this world to secure? |
6598 | Where is the so- called cook who understands how to prepare soups and stews? |
6598 | Who can look at this new danger without dismay? |
6598 | Why not face it sensibly? |
6598 | Would it not be a wiser thing to_ ask_ for what we need, before trying so circuitous and dangerous a method? |
6598 | Would this be following the self- sacrificing benevolence of Christ and his apostles?] |
6598 | and above all, the butter? |
6598 | and the meat? |
6598 | and will not this show the need of some change? |
6598 | what the tea? |
14475 | And may I go? |
14475 | And what becomes of the rest? |
14475 | And what should you do then? |
14475 | And where does he want you to go and live? |
14475 | Are you eighteen? |
14475 | Are you going to have two teachers? |
14475 | Are you much hurt? |
14475 | Are you not well, Albert? |
14475 | Are you? |
14475 | But where are_ you_ going to study? |
14475 | But you_ must_ be punished,said Mary Bell, very positively,"and- what shall your punishment be?" |
14475 | Could not I come home every night? |
14475 | Could not we climb in at one of the windows? |
14475 | Did I make you do that? |
14475 | Did he? |
14475 | Did he? |
14475 | Did not I tell you about it? 14475 Did you catch any fishes?" |
14475 | Did you know that we were going to have a new road? |
14475 | Do you know how to draw? |
14475 | Do you mean all night, too? |
14475 | Do you think that I could possibly learn now? |
14475 | Do you think that you shall move to the new house? |
14475 | Does he? |
14475 | Have you begun to think at all what you shall do? |
14475 | Have you got an oven? |
14475 | Have you? |
14475 | How much? |
14475 | Is not he foolish? |
14475 | Is not there any thing? |
14475 | Look,said he,"is not that beautiful? |
14475 | Malleville,said he,"are you awake?" |
14475 | No,said Mrs. Bell,"what is it?" |
14475 | Now how can we get in? |
14475 | Shall I begin now? |
14475 | Shall you take the money? |
14475 | Should you have much over? |
14475 | The girl''s? |
14475 | Then why are you glad to get the offer? |
14475 | Then why did not you come? |
14475 | To me? |
14475 | Was it a pretty bird''s- nest? |
14475 | Well, mother,said Mary Bell,"could not you give her a little money, if she is poor? |
14475 | What are you afraid of? |
14475 | What are you glad for? |
14475 | What are you going to have for breakfast? |
14475 | What could we have to_ do_ this fall and winter? |
14475 | What did they do? |
14475 | What did you want me for? |
14475 | What do you mean, Albert,said Mary Bell,"about Mary Erskine''s coming to live here? |
14475 | What do you think you shall do? |
14475 | What is it? |
14475 | What shall we do? |
14475 | What should you like? |
14475 | What was the girl''s name? |
14475 | When are you going to invite us? |
14475 | Where has he gone? |
14475 | Where is the horse? |
14475 | Where? |
14475 | Who shall be the teacher? |
14475 | Who shall they be? |
14475 | Why, have not I guessed right yet? |
14475 | Why, how much do you think the farm and stock will sell for? |
14475 | Why? |
14475 | Yes,said Malleville,"are you?" |
14475 | Your raspberry party? |
14475 | _ Is_ it foolish for me to learn to climb? |
14475 | After a short pause spent in reflections like these, Mrs. Bell resumed the conversation by saying,"Well, Mary,--and what do you think of the plan?" |
14475 | After musing upon this melancholy prospect a moment she asked,"Should not I have_ any_ of the property, if the will proves not to be good?" |
14475 | And what shall your punishment be?" |
14475 | Are you ready for me to come and nail the box?" |
14475 | Did you ever see a better burn?" |
14475 | Do n''t you think I can, Mary?" |
14475 | Here there was a pause of a few minutes, when Albert said again,"Have you any objection to my walking along with you here a little way, Mary?" |
14475 | If I will do it, and build a small house of one room there, will you come and be my wife? |
14475 | Mary Bell paused and looked upon the butterflies a moment, and then said,"And now how shall I get by? |
14475 | She then turned away, saying to herself,"If Albert is going to be sick and to die, what_ will_ become of me?" |
14475 | Should not you like to go?" |
14475 | What makes you think it was light?" |
14475 | What should you do with the money, if you borrowed it?" |
14475 | Where is it?" |
14475 | Who should have it, if not she?" |
14475 | Why not?" |
14475 | repeated Phonny,"what is that?'' |
14475 | said she, when she got to the door of the house,"did n''t you hear me calling for you?" |
14475 | what is the matter, mother?" |
14475 | what shall I do?" |
14475 | what''s his name?" |

26032 | Nuff said.--Are we going to Branton tomorrow, Burt, with the crowd? 26032 Oh, Burt, what were we thinking of?" |

26032 | This summer? |
26032 | We can have the wedding here, ca n''t we, Jimmie? |
26032 | We''ll go again, wo n''t we, Mother? |
26032 | What''s that you said, Jimmie? 26032 What''s the matter, Jennie?" |
26032 | What''s this? |
26032 | What''s upstairs, Burt? |
26032 | Who,he inquired,"was the lady who was already by the still waters while the rest of us were lying down in green pastures?" |
26032 | Who? |
26032 | Why ca n''t she be as nice when she goes to people''s houses as she is when she is at home? |
26032 | Why, Mary, you are n''t going away? |
26032 | Why? |
26032 | Why?'' |

32863 | How, then, are we to reconcile this with_ morality_? |
32863 | How, then, could the Wen be supplied, if it required_ ten rods_ to each family? |
32863 | If she can neither bake nor brew; if she be ignorant of the nature of flour, yeast, malt, and hops, what is she good for? |
32863 | If you add five of these pounds to a woman''s wages, is not that full as well employed as giving it in wages to the baker''s men? |
32863 | Is it not better employed for you? |
32863 | Is it not better than time spent in the ale- house, or in creeping about after a miserable hare? |
32863 | Is not this state of things perfectly monstrous? |
32863 | Is that nothing? |
32863 | It is_ labour_; but, what is_ exercise_ other than labour? |
32863 | It may be asked, Where is the mill to be found? |
32863 | Law is always law: if one part of the law may be, with impunity, set at defiance, why not another and every other part of the law? |
32863 | Must he have as much as_ all the widows_, or_ all the old men_? |
32863 | Needs there any thing more to make us cease to wonder at seeing labourers''children with dirty linen and holes in the heels of their stockings? |
32863 | No poor- laws? |
32863 | No poor- rates? |
32863 | No_ select vestries_? |
32863 | Now, how much garden ground does it require to supply even a large family with_ garden vegetables_? |
32863 | Now, is not this an enormous evil? |
32863 | Now, then, how fare the prisoners in the jails? |
32863 | Now, with what show of justice can these laws be maintained? |
32863 | Ought not they to consider that the habits which they give their children are to stick by those children during their whole lives? |
32863 | Stop the exchange between Leghorn and Yorkshire, and, does Yorkshire_ lose part of its custom_? |
32863 | Surely that Lancashire can never be_ in England_?" |
32863 | The answer is, Where is there not a mill? |
32863 | The question was, then, would these precious seeds_ grow and produce plants in perfection in England_? |
32863 | There is no farmer who does not at least fifty days in every year exclaim, when he gets up in the morning,"What shall I set_ them_ at to- day?" |
32863 | These last are right; but what have these things to do with the treatment of the poor? |
32863 | To be without sure and safe friends in the world makes life not worth having; and whom can we be so sure of as of our children? |
32863 | Was not this father discharging his duty by this boy much better than he would have been by sending him to a place called a_ school_? |
32863 | What do we want more than this to convince us, that the main body of the people have been_ impoverished_ by the"Reformation?" |
32863 | What have these things to do with the horrid facts relative to the condition and starvation of English people? |
32863 | What is it, then, that they_ do_ with the eighty rods of ground in a private garden? |
32863 | What is the object of Government? |
32863 | What need had we even of_ reason_ upon the subject? |
32863 | What reason have we, then, to presume, that our children are not to do the same? |
32863 | What shall we see next? |
32863 | What then will people not do, who regularly undertake the business for their livelihood? |
32863 | What would he have said? |
32863 | What_ is it_, then? |
32863 | What_ justice_ is there, then, in calling upon this man to take up arms and_ risk his life_ in the_ defence of the land_: what is the land to him? |
32863 | Where can that_ Hampshire_ be? |
32863 | Where is the justice of the peace? |
32863 | Where is there such a man, who can not trace to this cause a very considerable part of all the mortifications and sufferings of his life? |
32863 | Where, amidst all this starvation, is the overseer? |
32863 | Who would think himself safe, if at the_ mercy_ of such a man? |
32863 | Why do they take care to have it then? |
32863 | Why should any one have such desire? |
32863 | Why, you would say, to be sure,"Where is the LAW; where are the constables, the justices, the juries, the judges, the sheriffs, and the hangmen? |
32863 | Why_ buy_ this, when you can_ grow_ it in your garden? |
32863 | With what satisfaction will they learn that straw, twenty times as durable, to say nothing of the beauty, is to be got from every hedge? |
32863 | _ Abundant food_ is the main thing; and what is there that a rabbit will_ not eat_? |
32863 | and is it not better employed for the community? |
32863 | are there_ no poor- laws_ in Lancashire? |
32863 | duty on that straw, and to have it platted here; and that it would_ not answer_ to turn into plat straw of just the same sort grown in England? |
32863 | where is the wheat to be got? |
32863 | where is there not a market? |
4622 | ''Do you know anything about this Mrs. Blake, who washes for me?'' 4622 ''What about, mother?'' |
4622 | ''What new feature have you discovered now, mother?'' 4622 And have had all our hard labor for nothing?" |
4622 | And if not, bear it the best I can? |
4622 | And now,she added,"can you get me up one of these by Sunday?" |
4622 | And sat in the Armburner''s pew? |
4622 | And you are willing to devote yourself to incessant toil, night and day, for this purpose? |
4622 | And you have named your lowest terms? |
4622 | And you really think of learning the business, and then setting it up? |
4622 | Are there any vacancies there, Tom? |
4622 | Are you all ready? |
4622 | Bear the evil? |
4622 | Borrow of you? |
4622 | Bridget, are you in the habit of borrowing from Mrs. Jordon without my knowledge? |
4622 | Bridget, what''s the matter with your tea? 4622 But is n''t it dreadful to think of, Mrs. Smith? |
4622 | But it never will do, Mr. Martin, will it? |
4622 | But what shall we do Mary? 4622 Can I look at them, madam?" |
4622 | Can a mother forget her sucking child? |
4622 | Did she wear her new bonnet? |
4622 | Din''t you get a bar of soap from our house yesterday? |
4622 | Do n''t you know that you made yourself sick by your close application in learning your trade? |
4622 | Do you think it will take? |
4622 | Do you think you could get up a bonnet a handsome as that, and in just as good taste? |
4622 | Does she get ours every morning? |
4622 | Has n''t Mrs. Jordon got a coffee- mill of her own? |
4622 | Hav''nt you the change? |
4622 | Have you a pleasant room vacant? |
4622 | Have you the last fashions from abroad? |
4622 | How did I refuse? |
4622 | How do you do? |
4622 | How do you like your new boarding house? |
4622 | How so? |
4622 | I believe I''ve never had your bill, Mrs. Turner, have I? |
4622 | I have your wash- boiler and tubs? 4622 I think we had better try it, mother, do n''t you?" |
4622 | I? |
4622 | If she does n''t, pray who does? |
4622 | Indeed? 4622 It was exactly like this?" |
4622 | Mary, what_ shall_ we do? |
4622 | May I not see her now? |
4622 | Mrs. Jordon says, will you please to lend her a pan of flour? 4622 Nor of keeping a school?" |
4622 | Pardon me, Fanny-- but why did n''t you call a servant to get the port- folio for you? 4622 She did?" |
4622 | So bad as that, is it? |
4622 | Suppose I open a school? |
4622 | Suppose we open a little dry goods''store? |
4622 | Suppose we take a few boarders? |
4622 | That''s too high-- is it not? |
4622 | Then what is he? |
4622 | Was Mrs. Claudine there? |
4622 | Was anything like this ever heard? |
4622 | Was n''t it like this? |
4622 | We ought to do what we see to be right, mother, had we not? |
4622 | Well, child, what conclusion have you come to? |
4622 | Well, what do you think of my learning the dress- making business? |
4622 | Well, what does she want? |
4622 | What ails her? |
4622 | What do you wish to say? |
4622 | What is that, Mary? |
4622 | What is to be done? |
4622 | What is wanted? |
4622 | What kind of a room have you? 4622 What makes you think so, child?" |
4622 | What ought we to charge? |
4622 | What''s the matter with this tea? |
4622 | What''s wanted now? |
4622 | Where do you live now, Kitty? |
4622 | Where is the large earthen dish that you use sometimes in making bread? |
4622 | Who ever heard of a servant that asked as a favor to be permitted to serve you? 4622 Why do n''t she bring it home?" |
4622 | Why do you wish to move, Jane? |
4622 | Why so? |
4622 | Why, what are you going to do with this Mary? |
4622 | Why? |
4622 | Will you let me see them? |
4622 | Will you step into my house and tell Nancy I want to see her? |
4622 | Wo n''t it be right for us to reduce our expenses, and make the most of what we have left? |
4622 | Would n''t ice do better, doctor? |
4622 | You can have your choice of the finest in the house? |
4622 | You did not lose much, did you? |
4622 | You do n''t like the idea of setting up a little store? |
4622 | You have heard of Mrs. Claudine''s new bonnet, I presume? |
4622 | You have just opened a boarding house, I suppose, madam? |
4622 | You have not the pattern? |
4622 | You say we have sunk more than two thousand dollars in two years? |
4622 | ''What''s wanted now?'' |
4622 | ''Will you leave off teasing, If I give you a piece?'' |
4622 | And who can calculate all the whippings, and all the trouble, she would have spared herself and him? |
4622 | But are you in earnest?" |
4622 | But ca n''t you remedy this defect in some way?" |
4622 | But can she have broken up my tubs and boiler, or carried them off?" |
4622 | But it may be said, how are children to be trained in order that happiness may be the result? |
4622 | Cameron?" |
4622 | Can you make it?" |
4622 | How can we wonder at it? |
4622 | How could it be otherwise? |
4622 | How could you trust a man like Mr. Cameron to such an amount?" |
4622 | How shall I extirpate these, without injuring the others?" |
4622 | Is it not so, mother?" |
4622 | Is it the same we have been using?" |
4622 | Martin at length said--"Have I aught to hope, Mary?" |
4622 | Mary stooped down to the ear of her husband, who sat a little behind her mother, and whispered,"You are dull, dear-- I got you by it, did n''t I?" |
4622 | May I hope for a return of kindred feelings?" |
4622 | Now why, Helen, do you suppose that faithful old servant was so strongly attached to Oberlin?" |
4622 | Shall I describe the painful object that met my sight? |
4622 | Shall the world and its pleasures draw off your attention from your duty when so much is at stake? |
4622 | Turner?" |
4622 | Turner?" |
4622 | Turner?" |
4622 | Was it a cause of wonder? |
4622 | What lesson on industry would be so likely to be instructive as that gathered from a bee- hive? |
4622 | When she gave him the pie, he had reason to suppose it was not true it would hurt him-- else why should a kind mother give it to her child? |
4622 | Where are the bonnets you spoke of just now?" |
4622 | Who could have dreamed of such doings?" |
4622 | Who is so fit to watch over the wants of infancy as she who gave that infant birth? |
4622 | Why did n''t you look at them while you were in the parlor, or, take them up with you, if you wanted them in your chamber?" |
4622 | Why should I borrow your coffee- mill? |
4622 | Will you neglect or refuse to be your child''s teacher? |
4622 | Will you now be mine?" |
4622 | and what kind of a bed?" |
4622 | she at length exclaimed,"what on earth can you mean?" |
42803 | ''All this brings me to the point of my letter, which is: wo n''t you please let me come and live with you for a year and learn how to manage? 42803 And desserts?" |
42803 | And did you buy a kerosene- stove, too? |
42803 | And do n''t you have to rise with the lark to get a breakfast of two courses? |
42803 | And do you have fish on Fridays? |
42803 | And do you have muffins and cakes and those hot breads? |
42803 | And do you think you save a lot by doing up vegetables? |
42803 | And eggs, now; may I ever make desserts with them? |
42803 | And how about groceries and such things? |
42803 | And how about salads? |
42803 | And how often do you clean the silver? |
42803 | And is it cheap? |
42803 | And may a mere man inquire where on earth you are going to store all these things in our flat? |
42803 | And spill the greasy dish- water around the edge of the dress, as you did before? |
42803 | And the china? |
42803 | And there is ice; or do they use ice in the country? |
42803 | And watermelon rind-- don''t you do something with that? |
42803 | And what comes next? |
42803 | And what did it cost? |
42803 | And whatever is yellow tomato salad? 42803 And when do you have the preserves and canned fruit?" |
42803 | Aunt Maria? 42803 But do n''t you have to keep supplying these things over and over? |
42803 | But do n''t you think veal would be pretty expensive in March? 42803 But do you think croquettes would be enough dinner for a hungry man? |
42803 | But just how do you sterilize cans? |
42803 | But why is the main course fish instead of meat? |
42803 | But with other things besides groceries which you must have, table- linen and bed- linen and towels, how do you do about buying those things? 42803 But, Mary, why do you skip all the breakfasts and luncheons? |
42803 | Could you not do with a maid as the Southerners do with their colored people, and give out stores every morning? |
42803 | Did I say never? 42803 Did you buy them out of Incidentals?" |
42803 | Do n''t you always buy things by the quantity? 42803 Do n''t you know those little pear- shaped yellow tomatoes you see in summer? |
42803 | Do n''t you think we ought to do up some fruit for Aunt Maria, Mary? |
42803 | Do you always write down what you are going to have? 42803 Do you buy bones and things for stock soup?" |
42803 | Do you buy extra cream for these cereals? |
42803 | Do you ever do up vegetables? |
42803 | Do you ever have corned beef? |
42803 | Do you mean hard- shelled clams or soft? |
42803 | Do you mean you pour off the soup, and it is all right just as it is? |
42803 | Do you never set the breakfast- table at night? |
42803 | Do you put a bone in purà © es? |
42803 | Do you really mean we are never to have a roast? |
42803 | Do you really save much by making it yourself? 42803 Do you remember that friend of mother''s, Mrs. Grant, who had that perfect palace of a house and an income of fifty thousand dollars a year? |
42803 | Do you suppose any mere man is going to know that he is eating cheap meat unless you actually tell him so in plain words? 42803 Do you wear the same thing summer and winter?" |
42803 | Does n''t that sound good? |
42803 | Does n''t your gas cost you a great deal each month? 42803 Does your jelly always''jell?''" |
42803 | Have you any idea what you spend for meat a day? |
42803 | How about luncheons, now? 42803 How about potatoes?" |
42803 | How do you make that salad? |
42803 | How do you make those? |
42803 | How many do you use a week, anyway? |
42803 | I do both ways; I say to myself when I buy anything,''What form can this take to- morrow?'' 42803 I suppose you had sweetbreads for luncheon once or twice?" |
42803 | Is that all for to- day? |
42803 | Is that the end of the lesson for the day? |
42803 | It did? 42803 Mary, did you ever think what you would do if you had to live on just a few cents a day? |
42803 | No new potatoes for us, I suppose? |
42803 | Now, before I forget it, tell me why the drumsticks are to be served''on toast?'' 42803 Oh, that''s the trouble with the dinner- party, is it? |
42803 | One thing more; do you believe it pays to spend so much time and thought and all that on doing over things? 42803 Suppose you ca n''t get crabs; what do you do then?" |
42803 | Suppose you do n''t get enough for two nights, or the man eats more than you expected he would and you are short, what do you do then? |
42803 | That reminds me; are you infallible, Mary? 42803 Then how am I to know what to do? |
42803 | Then the first question to settle is this:''What is a little?'' 42803 Then what shall I put down under Rent? |
42803 | This game evidently has more to it than you thought when you began to learn it, has n''t it? 42803 Was n''t that the''Weal and hammer''of the Boffins?" |
42803 | Well, how is this? 42803 Well, is the last word that the city is the only place to live in economically?" |
42803 | Well, leaving meals for a moment, do you try and cut down on other things, such as coffee, for example? 42803 Well, what do you think of the difference between it and this place?" |
42803 | Well, why ca n''t I have a woman just to clean, say a day, or even half a day at a time, and put out my washing? |
42803 | What do you think about meat? 42803 What forfeit?" |
42803 | What have you written down? |
42803 | What will you do? 42803 Whatever shall we do, now, Mary? |
42803 | Where will you buy celery in July, my dear? 42803 Who waits on the table?" |
42803 | Why did I go to all the trouble to teach you that Game of Menus, I''d like to know, if this is the result? 42803 Why do you begin with dinners? |
42803 | You passed lightly over the subject of cake for supper; do n''t we have chocolate layer- cakes at all? |
42803 | You use a coffee machine, I see; do you like it better than the old way of making the coffee in the kitchen? |
42803 | And Mary, did you see what a big, big piece of roast was left over?" |
42803 | And do you-- now honestly, Mary-- do you think I know enough to keep house all by myself?" |
42803 | And is n''t it fine to have the money ahead instead of having to catch up later on when we have forgotten all about the occasion?" |
42803 | And now one thing more about steak: did you ever hear of a flank steak?" |
42803 | And why string- beans, when parsnips and salsify are plenty? |
42803 | And with this enormous expense you pay for vegetables, milk, eggs, butter, and all the rest, and yet put pennies in the kitchen bank?" |
42803 | Are there plenty of eggs? |
42803 | Are we never to have those?" |
42803 | Are we never, never to have that? |
42803 | Are you so awfully fond of toast as all that?" |
42803 | As for dessert, what will you have instead of mince pie?" |
42803 | As to strawberries-- strawberries in July?" |
42803 | Being both cheap and filling, what more could one ask?" |
42803 | But I agree for this time, and when you have the larger luncheon you will get the waitress, wo n''t you?" |
42803 | But how do you do about waiting on the table? |
42803 | But if you can not have those and can not buy on purpose, what can you have?" |
42803 | But if you have come to a stopping- place, may I speak? |
42803 | But what is the matter with corned beef and cabbage? |
42803 | But why have potatoes and barley at the same meal? |
42803 | But why that particular pudding?" |
42803 | But you get the idea, do n''t you?" |
42803 | By the way, did you see me cook that? |
42803 | Can you not have the canned cherries another way?" |
42803 | Can you really economize on those? |
42803 | Celery, however, I am afraid was rather expensive, was n''t it? |
42803 | Could you not have had shredded cabbage instead? |
42803 | Did you say you could or could not cut down on those?" |
42803 | Did you see the butcher shop when we came up from the station?" |
42803 | Do n''t you know how often the cook- books say,''serve with sippets of toast?''" |
42803 | Do n''t you think we might leave desserts now? |
42803 | Do n''t you think you might as well buy fresh ones as to put so much strength in these?" |
42803 | Do we settle the servant question here and now, offhand? |
42803 | Do you have a poorer quality to save money?" |
42803 | Do you keep jumping up and down all the time?" |
42803 | Do you lay in a supply every year at a regular time, or get them as you go along?" |
42803 | Do you want your husband to expire in agonies that very same night? |
42803 | Do you wear these gowns when you are alone?" |
42803 | Go down- town for more?" |
42803 | Has the bank suspended and are you considering how best to break the news to me, or has Dolly eloped with the ice- man?" |
42803 | How about that dessert?" |
42803 | How about the laundress''s bills and the cost of the dishes?" |
42803 | How did you ever get them?" |
42803 | How do you have such a pretty table all the time and still economize in everything, including time and strength? |
42803 | How do you plan your meals? |
42803 | How is this? |
42803 | How is this? |
42803 | However, I can remind you of them now, ca n''t I? |
42803 | I seem to hear broilers cackling; or do n''t fowls cackle in the spring- time of their youth? |
42803 | I suppose the custard does not call for eggs?" |
42803 | I think I have sufficiently impressed that on your mind, have n''t I?" |
42803 | I think I''ll do my own work and have a woman in to wash and iron and clean by the day; that will save something, wo n''t it?" |
42803 | I wait on the table, I suppose?" |
42803 | In other words, do you never make a mistake and overrun your allowance? |
42803 | Is it really a nice place, Mary?" |
42803 | Is n''t it a nuisance to have to make it?" |
42803 | Is n''t it too provoking we ca n''t do that way in town? |
42803 | Is n''t that a stroke of economy? |
42803 | Is that for my benefit? |
42803 | Is that the end of salads?" |
42803 | It is quite a saving to have an ice instead of an ice- cream, is n''t it? |
42803 | It seems strange and unpleasant, does n''t it? |
42803 | It was a lovely and delicious meal, was n''t it, Dick?" |
42803 | Let me see; what can we have? |
42803 | Living has been very cheap this summer, has n''t it?" |
42803 | Mary, do you think we shall ever be able to have a real live cow of our very own?" |
42803 | Meanwhile, tell me truly: have you saved as much money as you expected to when we came out here?" |
42803 | Now are not my stoves worth their weight in gold? |
42803 | Now do you think I have told you enough about meat to enable you to keep the wolf from the door?" |
42803 | Now for our table: do you suppose we could get some violets from the country? |
42803 | Now what did it cost?" |
42803 | Now what is to be to- day''s lesson? |
42803 | Now what will it cost us a year for our table?" |
42803 | Now when will you have another?" |
42803 | Now who in the world can she possibly be engaged to?" |
42803 | Now, why have in September the food you should reserve for winter, and why omit all the good fall vegetables and fruits? |
42803 | One of them is this: do you always look as neat and trim when you do your work, or is this costume a sort of stage- dress for my benefit?" |
42803 | Or is this closet the lesson all by itself?" |
42803 | Perhaps there is a model cart with everything spick and span, and driver in a white jacket; who knows?" |
42803 | Shall I say$ 40 a month and put down nothing for fuel? |
42803 | Shall we have the little maid?" |
42803 | Still winter?" |
42803 | Suppose for a time you had practically nothing at all, how would you manage then?" |
42803 | Tell me how much these are going to cost?" |
42803 | Tell me instead whether you do up anything besides apples in winter?" |
42803 | Tell me this: are we never to have any green things, celery or lettuce, for instance?" |
42803 | That is really no trouble, is it?" |
42803 | Then the steak; is n''t it fortunate that I had not put it over to cook? |
42803 | What in the world are they?" |
42803 | What shall we have for dinner to- night? |
42803 | What should have begun that dinner, Dolly, in December?" |
42803 | What will you have?" |
42803 | What''s the matter? |
42803 | When chair coverings wear out, and carpets, and your china set breaks to bits gradually till it disappears, do you fly to Incidentals, or what?" |
42803 | Who could she possibly be engaged to but Fred Mason? |
42803 | Why did you let me buy it, Dolly? |
42803 | Why not substitute strips of veal, breaded? |
42803 | Why not try this way? |
42803 | Why soup at all?" |
42803 | Why?" |
42803 | You know what a shin of beef is, do n''t you? |
42803 | You would not like to have a dyspeptic husband, would you? |
31217 | ''And does ye expect me to get the early breakfast for yer husband to be off in the train every mornin''?'' 31217 ''But who will get up your husband''s shirts?'' |
31217 | ''Do n''t you know that the Stebbinses are worth five times as much as ever I was?'' 31217 ''Does ye expect me to do the washin''with the cookin''?'' |
31217 | ''Father, how shall I_ seem_ to love them?'' 31217 ''Hast thou noticed whether people seem to have a call to hear thee?'' |
31217 | ''How is that?'' 31217 ''How many has ye in yer family?'' |
31217 | ''How many servants does ye keep, ma''am?'' 31217 ''Not afford it?'' |
31217 | A what? |
31217 | Aha, my little mistresses, are you there? |
31217 | And Sophie, what will she say to all this? |
31217 | And did the waterfall and the jockey cost anything? |
31217 | And do you think the free North has salt enough in it to save this whole Southern mass from corruption? 31217 And is it milking that baste you''d have me be after?" |
31217 | And of what use is it to meet them? 31217 And shall you answer it, papa?" |
31217 | And that plain little black one, with the stiff crop of scarlet feathers sticking straight up? |
31217 | And what does he recommend? |
31217 | And what have you to say to this,said my wife,"seeing you can not stop the prosperity of the country?" |
31217 | And why is it two dollars a yard? 31217 And, pray, what commandment of the Bible ever said children should not play on Sunday?" |
31217 | And,said Marianne,"how to find out what is nonsense?" |
31217 | Are you Irish? |
31217 | Are you in earnest in what you are saying, or are you only saying it for sensation? 31217 But do n''t you think,"said Jenny,"that something might be added and amended in the state of society our fathers established here in New England? |
31217 | But do n''t you think,said Marianne,"that there is danger in too much fiction?" |
31217 | But do n''t you think,said Pheasant,"that a certain fixed dress, marking the unworldly character of a religious order, is desirable? |
31217 | But do n''t you think,said my wife,"that, if the charge of providing the entertainment were less laborious, these gatherings could be more frequent? |
31217 | But for children and young people,said my daughter,--"would you let them read novels on Sunday?" |
31217 | But is it possible for a girl to learn at school the things which fit for her family life? |
31217 | But is there no standard of value? |
31217 | But what are these principles? 31217 But what could have led you there?" |
31217 | But what made you so afraid of McPherson? |
31217 | But what then? 31217 But what, Mary?" |
31217 | But who rules France? |
31217 | But you see,said Marianne,"what are we to do? |
31217 | But, after all,said Bob,"what do you gain? |
31217 | But, my dear, do n''t you think that this will have a bad effect on the female character? |
31217 | But,said I,"what could"--"What could induce me to do as I did? |
31217 | Can I make girls to order? 31217 Confess, now,"said I, looking at them;"have you not had secret designs on the hall and stair carpet?" |
31217 | Could n''t you get her plain sewing? 31217 Could you not correct her fault?" |
31217 | Did you ever hear anything like it? 31217 Did you notice Mary''s agitation when I spoke of the McPhersons coming to Boston? |
31217 | Do n''t like the butter, sir? 31217 Do n''t you know, Tom,"said the nurse to him once,"if you are so noisy and rude, you''ll disturb your dear mamma? |
31217 | Do n''t you remember, Marianne, how many dismal, commonplace, shabby houses we trailed through? |
31217 | Do n''t you think the customs of society make a difference? 31217 Do n''t you think, mamma,"said Marianne,"that there has been a sort of reaction against woman''s work in our day? |
31217 | Do you know the day of the month? |
31217 | Do you know,said I,"that I''m quite sure the Misses Fielder think they are practicing rigorous economy?" |
31217 | Do you know,said Miss Featherstone,"I believe your papa is right? |
31217 | Do you know,said my wife,"what yeast she uses?" |
31217 | Do you think we could get that school in Taunton for her? |
31217 | Do? 31217 Does she associate with the other girls?" |
31217 | For the wants of this period what safe provision is made by the church, or by the state, or any of the boy''s lawful educators? 31217 Had she ever cooked?" |
31217 | Has she ever told you anything of herself, Biddy? |
31217 | Have you been accustomed to the care of the table,--silver, glass, and china? |
31217 | Have you lived out much? |
31217 | Have you looked at wall- papers, John? |
31217 | Here is a correspondent who answers the question,''What shall we do with her?'' 31217 How can I drop her? |
31217 | How could a girl dress for fifty dollars? |
31217 | How is her handwriting? 31217 How_ are_ people to go to housekeeping,"said Jenny,"if everything costs so much?" |
31217 | I can not make out our Mary,said I to my mother;"she is a perfect treasure, but who or what do you suppose she is?" |
31217 | I have proved my point, Miss Jenny, have I not? 31217 I wonder if it is n''t just so with the men?" |
31217 | In the boys''academies of our country, what provision is made for amusement? 31217 In these times of peril and suffering, if the inquiry arises, How shall there be retrenchment? |
31217 | Is Mrs. Seymour at home? |
31217 | Is it necessary absolutely that every woman and girl should look exactly like every other one? 31217 It is,"said my wife;"but why? |
31217 | Let me see, what was I to write about? |
31217 | Me? 31217 My dear, why do n''t you take your blocks upstairs?" |
31217 | Now, is n''t he too bad? |
31217 | Now, it is true, all women are not called to such a life as this; but might not all women take a leaf at least from their book? 31217 Now, papa, how could you know it? |
31217 | Oh, as usual, the old question,said I,--"''What''s to be done with her?''" |
31217 | Oh, that? 31217 Papa,"said Jenny,"it appears to me people do n''t exactly know what they want when they build; why do n''t you write a paper on housebuilding?" |
31217 | Papa,said Marianne,"you are closing up your''House and Home Papers,''are you not?" |
31217 | She does; will you walk in? |
31217 | That is exactly like asking, Would you let them talk with people on Sunday? 31217 The outward expression of social good feeling becomes a mere form; but for that reason must we meet each other like oxen? |
31217 | The thing is,said Marianne,"how can any woman, I, for example, know what is too much or too little? |
31217 | Then why do you look for another? |
31217 | Then you do not believe in influencing this subject of dress by religious persons''adopting any particular laws of costume? |
31217 | Then,said my wife,"you believe that women ought to vote?" |
31217 | There are only two to choose between,says the lady,--"green and maroon: which is the best for the picture?" |
31217 | We know it''s silly, but we all bow down before it; we are afraid of our lives before it; and who makes all this and sets it going? 31217 Well now, papa talks just like a man, does n''t he?" |
31217 | Well, Marianne, how many yards of this wonderfully cheap carpet do you want? |
31217 | Well, but, papa,said Jenny,"do n''t you think all this a very severe test, if applied to us women particularly, more than to the men? |
31217 | Well, but,said Miss Featherstone,"what can be got in America? |
31217 | Well, did you ever see such a tyranny as this of fashion? |
31217 | Well, is n''t it so? |
31217 | Well, papa,said Jenny,"what are you meaning to make out there? |
31217 | Well, papa,said Marianne,"in the matter of dress, now,--how much ought one to spend just to look as others do?" |
31217 | Well, papa,said Marianne,"in your chemical analysis of John''s rooms, what is the next thing to the sunshine?" |
31217 | Well, what shall we do with her? |
31217 | Well,I answered,"is there any occupation, by which any of us gain our living, which has not its disagreeable side? |
31217 | Well,said Bob,"do n''t you think there is a deal of nonsense about Sabbath- keeping?" |
31217 | Well,said Bob,"the most interesting question still remains: What are to be the employments of woman? |
31217 | Well,said Bob,"to return from all this to the question, What''s to be done with her? |
31217 | Well,said Bob,"what would you have? |
31217 | Well,said I,"ca n''t you have some little family sitting- room where you can make yourselves cosy?" |
31217 | Well,said Jenny,"is n''t papa ever to go on with his paper?" |
31217 | Well,said my wife,"can not we contrive to retain all that is really valuable of the Sabbath, and to ameliorate and smooth away what is forbidding?" |
31217 | What are all the young girls looking for in marriage? 31217 What becomes of this girl? |
31217 | What if you should put it all down into a basement,suggests Bob,"and so get it all out of sight together?" |
31217 | What is she doing there? |
31217 | What is the reason of this? |
31217 | What is there for woman? |
31217 | What is to be done? |
31217 | What makes her shake her head in that way? |
31217 | What provision is there for the amusement of all the shop girls, seamstresses, factory girls, that crowd our cities? 31217 What wages do you expect?" |
31217 | What''s all this talk about? |
31217 | What, Mary, are you going to learn a trade? |
31217 | When will you come? |
31217 | Whence come these girls? 31217 Where do they hide? |
31217 | Who decides what the fashions shall be there? |
31217 | Who doubts that? |
31217 | Who is it that the Bible describes as a sun, arising with healing in his wings? 31217 Who knew it was so late?" |
31217 | Why can not we Americans learn to amuse ourselves peaceably like other nations? |
31217 | Why did n''t you tell my mother? |
31217 | Why is it imperative that you should have two or three courses at every meal? 31217 Why not?" |
31217 | Why should n''t it be? 31217 Why should not the professor lecture on home chemistry, devoting his first lecture to bread- making? |
31217 | Why should there not be a professor of domestic economy in every large female school? 31217 Why, Bridget, what''s the matter?" |
31217 | Why, Mary,said I, feeling a little mischievous,"do n''t you like the place?" |
31217 | Why, my little princess, so long as I like_ you_ better than your fashions, and merely think they are not worthy of you, what''s the harm? |
31217 | Why, then, what do you mean to do? |
31217 | Why, what''s the matter now? |
31217 | Why,said I,"do you suppose that''nothing to wear''is made in America?" |
31217 | Will she die? |
31217 | Would it not be so? 31217 Would you be plased, ma''am, to suit yerself with another cook? |
31217 | Yes, that''s it; are people_ never_ to get a new carpet? |
31217 | You do n''t mean,said my wife,"to propose that our protégée should go to Marianne as a servant?" |
31217 | ''Am not I free? |
31217 | ''As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be''"--"But what about your cathedral?" |
31217 | ***** I continued:--***** What ought"our house"to be? |
31217 | *****"And do you really think, papa, that houses built in this way are a practical result to be aimed at?" |
31217 | *****"I say, Marianne,"said Bob,"have we got fireplaces in our chambers?" |
31217 | ; this would be the form for a week or two, and then,''Mary, have you dusted the parlors?'' |
31217 | After the wail,"My God, why hast thou forsaken me?" |
31217 | And if I drop her, who will take her up?" |
31217 | And if the case be so with men, how is it with women? |
31217 | And if there is retribution, on whose head should it fall? |
31217 | And is it any kindness or reverence to woman, to educate her for such an inevitable destiny by a life of complete physical delicacy and incapacity? |
31217 | And is there to be no retribution for a cruelty so vast, so aggravated, so cowardly and base? |
31217 | And so with regard to the various articles of food,--why might not chemical lectures be given on all of them, one after another? |
31217 | And the servants who learn of these mistresses,--what do they seek after? |
31217 | And what comes of such marriages? |
31217 | And what does this ideal prove to be among us? |
31217 | And where can she go? |
31217 | And who can blame her? |
31217 | And why? |
31217 | Are not his labors dry and hard and exhausting? |
31217 | Are there no trials to a woman, I beg to know, in teaching a district school, where all the boys, big and little, of a neighborhood congregate? |
31217 | Are they not the countries where the people are most oppressed, most unhappy in their circumstances, and therefore in greatest need of amusement? |
31217 | Are you going to_ my_ distressed woman? |
31217 | Are you satisfied of the existence of a sentiment that has no outward mode of expression? |
31217 | But do they? |
31217 | But is it possible, in maturity, to have the joyful fullness of the life of childhood? |
31217 | But is there any need of this? |
31217 | But is there no consolation? |
31217 | But is this so? |
31217 | But really, Mr. Crowfield, why do n''t you like the fashions?" |
31217 | But to a tourist taking like chance in American country fare, what is the prospect? |
31217 | But was there ever a thing of thy spotless and unsullied belongings which a boy might use? |
31217 | But what is,--and who is?" |
31217 | But where is the woman in any way too great, or too high, or too wise, to spend herself in creating a home? |
31217 | But_ is_ it good temper, or only wanton carelessness, which cares nothing for waste? |
31217 | Can I do anything more than try such as apply, when they seem to give promise of success? |
31217 | Can I help knowing that she is poor and suffering? |
31217 | Can any woman be such a housekeeper without inspiration? |
31217 | Can human beings afford to throw away a vitalizing force so pungent, so exhilarating? |
31217 | Can one individual resist the whole current of society? |
31217 | Can the sun shine in the parlor now for fear of fading the carpet? |
31217 | Can we keep a fire there for fear of making dust, or use the lounges and sofas for fear of wearing them out? |
31217 | Crowfield?--some twelve or thirteen, are there not? |
31217 | Did He make him for us to hold a life''s battle with? |
31217 | Did n''t you know that? |
31217 | Do any women work harder? |
31217 | Do n''t you know there must n''t be such a thing as a bit of real work ever seen in a parlor? |
31217 | Do they ever romp and frolic? |
31217 | Do they love plants? |
31217 | Do they sketch or paint? |
31217 | Do they write letters, sew, embroider, crochet? |
31217 | Do you know that I''m almost glad we ca n''t get new things? |
31217 | Do you really think it would be best for us all to try to go back to that old style of living you describe? |
31217 | Do you suppose family prayers, now, and a blessing at meals, make people any better?" |
31217 | Do you think I do n''t know why my girls have the credit of being the best- dressed girls on the street?" |
31217 | Do you think, as things are, we could go back and dress for the sum you did?" |
31217 | Does it not seem poor economy to pay servants for letting our muscles grow feeble, and then to pay operators to exercise them for us? |
31217 | Does it not show that foul air and improper food are too much matters of course to excite attention? |
31217 | Does not the blacksmith spend half his life in soot and grime, that he may gain a competence for the other half? |
31217 | Does not the lawyer spend all his days either in a dusty office or in the foul air of a court- room? |
31217 | Does not this look as if a Mightier Power than ours were working in and for us, supplementing our weakness and infirmity? |
31217 | Does she write a good hand?" |
31217 | For John is rich, and what does he care for odds and ends and parings? |
31217 | Has he not all the beasts of the forest, and the cattle on a thousand hills? |
31217 | Has ye much company?'' |
31217 | Has_ she_ Love''s roses on her cheeks? |
31217 | Have I not as good a right to do nothing as you?'' |
31217 | Have n''t I seen you mincing downstairs, with all your colors harmonized, even to your gloves and gaiters? |
31217 | He comes for exercise and amusement,--he gets these, and a ticket to destruction besides,--and whose fault is it?" |
31217 | How can people believe such things and be comfortable? |
31217 | How can you say so?" |
31217 | How could we tell under what strange aspects he might look forth upon us, when once he had passed into"that undiscovered country"of matrimony? |
31217 | How does life run in such countries? |
31217 | How many churches are there that for six or eight months in the year are never ventilated at all, except by the accidental opening of doors? |
31217 | How many have any superabundance of vitality with which to meet the wear and strain of life? |
31217 | How many would have firmness to vote against such an establishment merely because it was bad for society? |
31217 | How much a year will be necessary, as the English say, to_ do_ this garden of Eden, whereinto shall enter only the poetry of life?" |
31217 | How shall we be Amused? |
31217 | How shall we entertain our Company? |
31217 | I answered,"Are you not afraid to live and bring up your children in an atmosphere which blights your plants?" |
31217 | I ca n''t myself blame people that shut up their rooms and darken their houses in fly- time,--do you, mamma?" |
31217 | I do n''t believe we look any better now, when we are dressed, than we did then,--so what''s the use?" |
31217 | II WOMAN''S SPHERE"What do you think of this Woman''s Rights question?" |
31217 | IV IS WOMAN A WORKER"Papa, do you see what the''Evening Post''says of your New Year''s article on Reconstruction?" |
31217 | If General Lee had been determined not to have prisoners starved or abused, does any one doubt that he could have prevented these things? |
31217 | If an accident happened in the great roystering family of eight or ten children( and when was not something happening to some of us? |
31217 | If it be her sovereign will and pleasure to enact all sorts of physiological absurdities in the premises, who shall say her nay? |
31217 | If our daughters did as much for us, should we not be proud of their energy and heroism? |
31217 | If she had all her windows open, there would be paint and windows to be cleaned every week; and who is to do it? |
31217 | If there ever is a forbidden fruit in an Eden, will not our young Adams and Eves risk soul and body to find out how it tastes? |
31217 | If this woman were to work in a factory, would she not often be brought into associations distasteful to her? |
31217 | In how many of these places has the question of a thorough provision of fresh air been even considered? |
31217 | In which of them do we not need fires on our hearths? |
31217 | Is Woman a Worker? |
31217 | Is he not brought into much disagreeable contact with the lowest class of society? |
31217 | Is it altogether genteel to live as we do? |
31217 | Is it any less drudgery to stand all day behind a counter, serving customers, than to tend a doorbell and wait on a table? |
31217 | Is it necessary to go without hoops, and look like a dipped candle, in order to be unworldly? |
31217 | Is it not the answer, that childhood is the only period of life in which bodily health is made a prominent object? |
31217 | Is it not time that civilization should learn to demand somewhat more care and nicety in the modes of preparing what is to be cooked and eaten? |
31217 | Is it not to ape all the splendors and vices of old aristocratic society? |
31217 | Is it not to be able to live in idleness, without useful employment, a life of glitter and flutter and show? |
31217 | Is n''t her father rich enough to support her? |
31217 | Is she handy with her needle?" |
31217 | Is that vital power which reddens the cheek of the peach and pours sweetness through the fruits and flowers of no use to us? |
31217 | Is the house inhabited? |
31217 | Is the man a personal friend, that he wishes to make you a present of a dollar on the yard, or is there some reason why it is undesirable?" |
31217 | Is_ hers_ an eye of this world''s light? |
31217 | It is the slave who dances and sings, and why? |
31217 | Jenny Lind once, when she sang at a concert for destitute children, exclaimed in her enthusiasm,"Is it not beautiful that I can sing so?" |
31217 | Might it not be the same in any of the arts and trades in which a living is to be got? |
31217 | Might not some of the refinement and trimness which characterize the preparations of the European market be with advantage introduced into our own? |
31217 | Must one wear such a fright of a bonnet?" |
31217 | Must we keep the old one till it actually wears to tatters?" |
31217 | Must we never use any of the forms of mutual good will, except in those moments when we are excited by a real, present emotion? |
31217 | My dear, can you sketch the ground plan of that house we saw in Brighton?" |
31217 | No? |
31217 | Not that it was any business of mine; but then a fellow likes to know his ground before-- Before_ what_? |
31217 | Now by what possible calling open to her capacity can she pay her board and washing, fuel and lights, and clear a hundred and some odd dollars a year? |
31217 | Now for getting"help,"as Mrs. Trollope says; and where and how were we to get it? |
31217 | Now what is the matter with domestic service? |
31217 | Now what shall be the ground- tint of our rooms?" |
31217 | Now why does not this very obvious philosophy apply to better and higher feelings? |
31217 | Now why is this? |
31217 | Now, what will become of us all if your restlessness about this should be the means of Mary''s leaving us? |
31217 | O ye watchers of the cross, ye waiters by the sepulchre, what can be said to you? |
31217 | OR, THE WOMAN QUESTION"Well, what will you do with her?" |
31217 | One would like to be grand and heroic, if one could; but if not, why try at all? |
31217 | Or was there any old affair? |
31217 | Papa, how can you expect to learn about these things?" |
31217 | People often wonder,''How do you catch So- and- so? |
31217 | Query: Do they sleep with closed windows and doors, and with heavy bed- curtains? |
31217 | Shall they not have somebody to look down upon? |
31217 | Sit down and receive our visitor with all good will and the freedom of a home? |
31217 | Smile? |
31217 | So far we are all agreed, are we not?" |
31217 | THE CHIMNEY- CORNER I WHAT WILL YOU DO WITH HER? |
31217 | That is n''t the hat you were wearing yesterday?" |
31217 | The French coffee is reputed the best in the world; and a thousand voices have asked, What is it about the French coffee? |
31217 | The Paris milliners, the Empress, or who?" |
31217 | The black- walnut, with its heavy depth of tone, works in well as an adjunct; and as to oak, what can we say enough of its quaint and many shadings? |
31217 | The founder of Christianity says:''Whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat or he that serveth? |
31217 | The house and the children are not Biddy''s; and why should she care more for their well- being than the mistress and the mother? |
31217 | Then, did you ever see a better, wider, airier dining- room? |
31217 | They look very pretty with it, to be sure; but, after all, is there but one style of beauty? |
31217 | Things are not yet gone to destruction, only going,--and why not have a good time on deck before the ship goes to pieces? |
31217 | Thus first it would be,''Mary, wo n''t you see to the dusting of the parlors? |
31217 | To be sure, she smiles on you; but what of that? |
31217 | To begin, then, with the very foundation of a good table,--_Bread_: What ought it to be? |
