45751An''whatever have ye been about then, Miss Carrie?
45751And I suppose,she said at length,"that that was the reason you said you would not have time to make the bracket for mamma?"
45751And are you going to help her with them?
45751And can I help her, mamma?
45751And did n''t you hear Ruth calling you?
45751And do you feed him?
45751And do you think it right, then, for you to do any thing which destroys or injures either?
45751And if a bear_ did_ come, I could sc''eam very loud, could n''t I?
45751And it was pretty much the same thing yesterday, was it not?
45751And the harder you work, the worse you feel; is it not so?
45751And there is no need for me to play if I do not choose, is there?
45751And where was our steady little woman, Nellie?
45751And why did n''t you? 45751 And you have had no walk, no play, all day?"
45751And you think that all this extra study is going to help you, my little girl?
45751And you will do it then?
45751Any more flour, Nellie?
45751Are you going back to that horrid writing?
45751Are you not going to eat your breakfast, Carrie?
45751Are you sure you do n''t mind, Carrie? 45751 But am I''a dull boy''?"
45751But do you think Frankie really means to give the white mice to Daisy?
45751Cafarine, do n''t I help a whole lot?
45751Carrie,said Daisy, when Nellie had gone,"did you ever have a temp- ta- tion?"
45751Could n''t I do it, mamma?
45751Courage, mamma?
45751Daisy, my pet, did you shut the door of the garden- house after you?
45751Daisy, what''s the matter now?
45751Did he?
45751Did it make you do somefing naughty?
45751Did she frighten you so? 45751 Did the mouse frighten your appetite away, Carrie?"
45751Did you ask your mamma if Daisy could have them?
45751Did you find one in the store- room too?
45751Did your papa scold you?
45751Do n''t you like it, Daisy?
45751Do they, Ruth?
45751Do you think your mamma would let you come to our house this afternoon?
45751Do you want papa to be busy?
45751Does she think a bear is eating me up when she hears me cry and ca n''t see me?
45751For a whole fortnight, two weeks, mamma?
45751Frankie, do you know what is the matter with her?
45751Frankie, if I went in to bafe, and Jonah''s whale came and swallowed me up, how could God get my soul out of him?
45751Have you been down to the beach?
45751Have you felt very well, quite like yourself, during the last few days, Nellie?
45751Here''s anofer one,she said:"Why do n''t white mice like to live in the garden- house?"
45751How can I?
45751How did he come to be talking to you?
45751How did you make him so tame?
45751How did you tame them so?
45751How do you suppose they got in?
45751How soon will you come?
45751I do n''t believe mamma would care at all so long as she never saw them,said Bob;"do you, Nellie?"
45751I do n''t know,said Nellie:"what do you want to grow very fast for?"
45751I thought I was stronger than it seems I am; but another time we will both be more careful, hey?
45751If I was an ugly bug crawling about, would you love me?
45751Is Johnny upstairs?
45751Is it kurous to make a little hole in the paper and peek in?
45751Is it?
45751Is she there now, Daisy?
45751Is that all you have done to- day?
45751Is that our Johnny?
45751Mamma,said Nellie,"did papa tell you what we were talking about last evening while we were out walking?"
45751Must they be killed?
45751Nellie and Carrie,said Maggie,"what do you think we are doing, Bessie and I?"
45751Nellie, if I was that ugly bug crawling about, would you smash me?
45751Nellie, what''ll make me grow very fast?
45751Nellie, why would n''t you like to make something for your mamma of your own work? 45751 Nellie, would you ever have believed that I could do such a thing as to keep those mice?"
45751Nellie,said her father,"did you ever hear the old couplet,''All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy''?"
45751No, mamma,said Nellie softly,"and you think I have made it the first of all things lately, do you not?"
45751Not always, do they, Bessie? 45751 Now, why did you guess it so soon?"
45751Papa, I-- I-- I would if I could, but-- but the birdies are''live, and the dinner- set is dead; but I would n''t cry about it, would I, mamma?
45751Papa,said Daisy,"you_ could n''t_ be going to catch the little birdies out the trees, and put them in there, could you?"
45751Talk about something else,she spelled out in the sign alphabet, and then asked aloud,--"What is it you and Bessie are doing, Maggie?"
45751Tell it a long, long story,--tell me till your tongue is tired, will you?
45751That very evening I was sitting on papa''s knee, talking to him,continued Belle,"and what do you think?
45751Then I''ll tell her she must n''t do it,said Daisy;"but, Nellie, do people that kill mice have to be took to prison?"
45751Then it is not a task she set you?
45751Then what can I do to show mamma how sorry I am?
45751Then why do n''t you be good all the time?
45751Then you''re not going back to that old Bible lesson this morning?
45751There''s an old bird- cage upstairs in the attic,said Nellie,"why would n''t that do for a house for them?"
45751Was n''t what?
45751Was she? 45751 Well, I do n''t know, papa; but you do not think study makes my head ache, or makes me cross, do you?"
45751Well, what about the mouse?
45751Well, what whim has taken you now?
45751Well?
45751What are you going to do with them then?
45751What are you going to do?
45751What are you making?
45751What can it be, Nellie?
45751What did Nellie do? 45751 What did he do?
45751What happened? 45751 What is that you are doing, Nellie?"
45751What is the matter?
45751What makes you do the housekeeping,asked Carrie,--"just to help mamma, or because you like to?"
45751What makes you go home so soon?
45751What makes you so quiet, Carrie?
45751What parcel?
45751What shall I do?
45751What shall we do now?
45751What shall we do with them?
45751What shall we do?
45751What was it? 45751 What were you doing upstairs then?"
45751What were you doing?
45751What will Catherine do with them?
45751What will she do?
45751What''s Nellie going to do?
45751What''s made it so wonderfully nice?
45751What''s the matter, Daisy?
45751What''s the matter, Daisy?
45751What''s the matter, child? 45751 What, my writing do you mean, papa?"
45751What_ are_ you crying for, Daisy?
45751Where are the white mice? 45751 Where did you come from?
45751Where''s Frankie?
45751Who gave you your health and good spirits, Nellie?
45751Who has been so rude to you, darling?
45751Who wants to do it?
45751Why could n''t we keep them, and take them down to the garden- house where Daisy''s white mice are?
45751Why not?
45751Why, Cad?
45751Why, I''d like it ever so much, mamma, but--"Well, but what?"
45751Why, where''s papa?
45751Why, yes; but do you think I could, mamma?
45751Why,she said,"who has meddled with my things, I wonder?"
45751Will you go and drive too, Daisy?
45751Would you stop a minute and mind baby while I call Carrie to be dressed?
45751Yes, some Bible lesson, is it not?
45751Yes, we''ll never mind, wo n''t we?
45751Yes,answered Carrie,"you mean the youngest person in the k- i- c- h- u- n, do n''t you?
45751You really think this, Carrie? 45751 You''ve quite given up your Bible subjects, have n''t you?"
45751Your face tells whether it has hurt you or no,said her husband in a vexed tone;"you look quite tired out: how could you do so?"
45751And how had they come in the box, and how many were there?
45751And how was she to put the mice out of the way herself?
45751And where should that place be that she was to hide them, not only from mamma, but from every one else?
45751And why was it troubled?
45751At another time Daisy would have been delighted; but what was a dinner- set to a bird?
45751Belle Powers had her tame mouse: why could not she tame these as well?
45751Besides, you are growing too big to cry so much, and you do n''t want people to call you a cry- baby, do you?"
45751But how can I help crying when I hurt myse''f?"
45751But how could she be patient and good- humored with that uncomfortable secret weighing on her mind?
45751But now what was she to do with the mice?
45751But where had they all been?
45751But why, if all this were true, did Carrie fear to betray her secret; why was she so guilty and miserable?
45751But you are quite upset with being so disturbed last night, are you not?
45751But, Frankie, if I went to heaven wifout you, would you cry?"
45751Can you imagine?
45751Can you tell what had made such a change in so short a time?
45751Carrie was not happy,--no, indeed, how could she be?
45751Could n''t Ruth put her to bed?"
45751Daisy and Frankie were off together immediately, and the four elder children were settling the question of"what shall we do first?"
45751Daisy aroused a little from her melancholy, and said in a plaintive voice,--"Why do n''t a pig wif a ni''gown on him want to go to the kitchen fire?"
45751Daisy had her white mice, and was allowed to keep them: why should she not have these little animals, so long as they were kept out of mamma''s way?
45751Did her work go smoothly after that?
45751Did n''t you know that was too long a walk for you?"
45751Did she hurt herself?"
45751Do n''t you think it would?"
45751Do you want me to, mamma?
45751Do?
45751For what had Carrie been doing upstairs?
45751Have you been hiding because you were frightened about mamma?
45751How could she forget?
45751How did it happen?
45751How was she to tame them, now that she had them?
45751How would I hear the baby if it cries?"
45751I should fink we_ would n''t_ do any fing mamma do n''t like, would we, Carrie?"
45751I''m not afraid of him, are you?
45751If I was to plant myse''f and then pour water on my foots like they do on the flowers''foots, then would n''t I grow pretty fast?"
45751Is it not so?"
45751Is that a fair division, think you?"
45751It ca n''t do any harm, can it?"
45751It is not possible you were so imprudent, is it?"
45751Mamma,_ do_ you think I could learn to make some cake?
45751Nellie, do black cats eat white mice?"
45751Nellie, if I was a birdie, or a white mouse, would you love me the most?"
45751Nellie, what could I do to help mamma?"
45751Nellie,"pausing in her capers with an air of deep consideration,--"but, Nellie, if somebody cut off my nose, I ought to cry, ought n''t I?"
45751No, that plan would never answer; but what should she do?
45751Papa,"she added, turning to her father,"I s''pose you''re going to be busy after tea, ar''n''t you?"
45751Ransom said,--"Nellie, what is this you are so busy with, my daughter?"
45751Ransom sharply,"are you going to let your mother go upstairs with Daisy?"
45751Ransom, when Daisy had gone,"could you not arrange some place up in the garret where Daisy could keep her mice and they need not come in my way?"
45751Ransom?"
45751Should she carry the box off somewhere, away to the woods or down on the shore, and let the mice out there?
45751That is, if we can help it; and I think you could feel a little glad and happy now if you chose: could n''t you?"
45751The mice?
45751Then, after another silence of a moment or two, she spoke again,--"Nellie, why wo n''t you make one of those brackets for mamma?"
45751There was a little hole near the bottom of the box: had the mice gnawed it, trying to make their escape?
45751They might watch and keep her away in the daytime; but what was to be done at night?
45751Were Carrie''s troubles never coming to an end?
45751Were people in heaven ever troubled about the naughty things their loved ones did or had done upon the earth?
45751What a poor foolish mamma it is to be so startled at such a harmless little thing as a mouse, is it not, dearie?
45751What caused this?"
45751What could it be?
45751What could they be for?
45751What do you say?"
45751What do you want?"
45751What had she said to Carrie?
45751What is wrong?"
45751What makes him wicked?"
45751What pleasure or good could they be to her?
45751What was she to do?
45751What was she to do?
45751What will mamma say?"
45751What"things"did Nellie mean?
45751What?"
45751Where could the children be?
45751Where was she?
45751Who are they for, papa?"
45751Why did n''t you remind me of the practising and sewing, mamma?"
45751Why did you not send her?"
45751Why had she not taken time to think about all this?
45751Will it make you ill again?"
45751Will that do, Daisy?"
45751Will they be safe till then, do you think?"
45751Will you try it for a week, and see how you like it?
45751Wo n''t mamma be in a taking, though?"
45751Wo n''t they trouble you?"
45751Would you just as lieve I''d have him, for my own?"
45751Yes: Daisy had shown true love and tenderness for her mother; but how far had she been from doing the same?
45751You really wish that Daisy should have your bird?"
45751You want to be hoed, do you?
45751You_ have_ managed to live and be happy through it, have you not?"
45751_ A COURTSHIP._"WILL you come to the beach now, Nellie?"
45751_ HARD AT WORK._"NELLIE, will you come down to the beach now?"
45751_ MAKING GINGER- CAKES._ BUT how?
45751already?"
45751are you ill?
45751asked Carrie, and,--"How could I?"
45751do n''t you mind?
45751do n''t you weally mind?
45751here she comes;"then, as Daisy''s little feet pattered into the store- room,"Did you forget the corks, pet?"
45751how queer,"she said to herself,"what can Carrie be going up to the garret all alone for?
45751said Johnny,"what ails you?
45751so early, dear?"
45751that is it, is it?"
45751those are the slippers mamma was going to work for Johnny, are they not?"
45751those ginger- snaps papa likes?"
45751was that you went upstairs?"
45751what do you fink?
45751what do you fink?"
45751what is it?"
45751where are you?
45751who is that?
45751who would quarrel with her if she did?
