22095Later, in recalling their conversation, she often thought of a phrase he used:"What is one woman more or less in times like these?"
22095May I sit down?"
22095Oh, Mildred, what have you been doing all this time?
22095She was very unhappy, but what else was possible for her to do?
22095Should she go in or not?
22095Should she reveal herself in the selfsame light again?
22095So with neither beauty nor charm, how could she ever even hope to gratify her mother by securing the distinguished husband she so desired for her?
22095Tell us where you received your information and why we are to be sent away so ignominiously?"

22095What has kept you at home?"
22095What must_ they_ do?

22095What would become of Mildred Thornton, left behind with strangers in a besieged fortress that might fall at any hour?
22095When the two friends reached the hut, Nona Davis exclaimed in amazement:"What on earth has happened?
22095Why had she gone away?
22095Why had they always led her to believe by their silences that there was something to be ashamed of in her mother''s story?
22095Why should this man create such an atmosphere of trust and respect?
22095Why should you not be willing to leave her to her fate?"
22095Why, do you know what has become of him?"
22095Why, what would your mother and father and Dick think of my deserting you at such a time?
22095Would one of the hospital physicians come and see her?
22095Yet what was she to do?
22095You know I told you I had met him the day he came into my hospital ward to decorate the dying soldier?"
33990All persons possessed of any genius are supposed to be vain, are n''t they, Carlo? 33990 And all this long speech, which may or may not be complimentary, leads up to just what human equation at present?"
33990And who is that romantic young soldier standing beneath her?
33990Are n''t you praying every moment, Ruth, that we may be ordered forward with the army of occupation into Germany? 33990 Are you not Major James Hersey, one of the youngest majors in the United States overseas service?
33990Are you sure you will not become tired, Bianca, and the distance is not too much for you?
33990Bee is looking better than you expected to find her, is n''t she, Carlo, and more like a little girl? 33990 Bianca,"Carlo asked,"have you ever read the story of the Rheingold in the Ring of the Nibelung?
33990But do n''t you think, Dr. Raymond, we might ask the friends who have come to welcome us and who seem hungriest to share our food? 33990 But who is this Countess Charlotta whom you desire to have with you here in Coblenz in order that you may continue your friendship?"
33990But you do n''t mean, Countess Charlotta--"How do you know my name?
33990But you will stay and see if Freia is seriously hurt? 33990 Ca n''t you guess and tell me first, Sonya?"
33990Carlo, you have not asked Bianca to dance, you wo n''t forget, will you?
33990Do n''t you think we had best go back to the hospital in a few moments, Thea?
33990Do n''t you think we had better go back, Charlotta?
33990Do n''t you think, Colonel, we might postpone the interview until the arrival of Mrs. David Clark? 33990 Do you think I might talk to your father?
33990Do you think, Sonya, that Carlo knew he was to be cited this afternoon?
33990Do? 33990 Have you been dancing, Bianca?"
33990I wonder how you managed that, Miss Jamison?
33990I wonder if you are going to be willing to do me a great favor? 33990 I wonder if you will tell me just what members of Dr. Clark''s staff are going with him?"
33990I wonder why we can not take''La petite Louisa''along with us, Sonya? 33990 I wonder, Carlo, if you will ever learn to think or talk of any one except yourself?"
33990If you do n''t mind, Tante, would you mind ringing the bell? 33990 If you do n''t mind, may I take off my hat while I talk?"
33990Is this the way you like your tea, Carlo? 33990 May I write you after we go away and tell you where we are to be stationed?
33990Not Carlo?
33990Not jealous, are you, Bee? 33990 Queer song for me to sing, is n''t it, Bianca?"
33990Shall I try pushing the little front door open, Mrs. Clark? 33990 Then we are friends, are n''t we, Bee?
33990We are not walking faster than you like, Miss Pringle?
33990What are you going to do with this child, Sonya?
33990What brings you to Coblenz? 33990 What is it you wish to talk to me about?"
33990What is it, baby?
33990What is it, what has happened?
33990Why not walk as we have many times with my hand in your''s to keep you from slipping, Bianca?
33990You are Mrs. Clark are n''t you? 33990 You are sure there is no one who may overhear us, Colonel Winfield?"
33990You do n''t approve of my having come away from home in the way that I did, do you, Major Hersey? 33990 You have been to see our troops break camp and start for Germany?
33990You will sit down, wo n''t you, and wait until we hear whether Mrs. Clark will be able to join us tonight?
33990After all one could understand, the German viewpoint since in spite of having been told to love our enemies, how few of us have accomplished it?
33990And if it were possible and not too much trouble could she remain at the American Red Cross hospital until her recovery?
33990At least you will let me bring you a chair?"
33990Besides why did Fraulein Liedermann not entertain her girl friends in the drawing- rooms of her home?
33990Besides, after all, would it be so unpleasant to share one''s future with Bianca?
33990But do you think you ought to talk?
33990But have you Dr. Clark''s note to the officer of the day?
33990But if Captain Liedermann were well why should he continue to make a pretence of illness?
33990But my problem is, would he accept an apology which did not include obedience?
33990But now that I am safely here, you will take me with you to Germany?
33990But where is your usual companion, the little French girl?"
33990But wo n''t you have this chair?"
33990By the way, do you suppose we know any people here?
33990Can the war not be over among us women at least?
33990Do n''t you think she will probably have many admirers, Carlo?"
33990Do you remember how the Pied Piper led the German children away into some undiscovered country when their parents refused to pay him his just dues?
33990Do you suppose it would be possible for me to get hold of a horse in Coblenz which I could use?
33990Do you think I could get to America without being discovered?
33990Had he been told he was to be decorated?"
33990Has Carlo spoken to you on the subject recently?
33990Have n''t you some woman who is your friend to whom you could appeal?
33990Have you ever been desperate enough not to care what happened to you?"
33990I am sure you agree with me?"
33990I say, here comes Mrs. Clark now, why not ask her to help you?"
33990I suppose he would only think me extraordinarily impertinent?"
33990I suppose, Colonel Winfield, that you could arrange for us to go to the United States?"
33990I wonder if the excitement of our journey is having a strange influence upon me?"
33990I wonder if you are one of the lucky persons who never grow up?
33990If so why had little Gretchen told so ingenious a falsehood?
33990It is foolish to be prejudiced against people, is n''t it?
33990May I at least talk to Dr. Clark?
33990May I wish you all good fortune?"
33990Miss Jamison, you will look after her, wo n''t you, since she seems to prefer you?"
33990Nicht war?"
33990Now you are tired, shall I not send you back to the hospital in my car?"
33990Odd name his for an American, what is it?"
33990Still you have been very successful and perhaps may wish to keep on with nursing as a profession after we return home?"
33990Then if you are still in Coblenz and I write you, wo n''t you come to Luxemburg?
33990Therefore would Nona marry him as soon as it could be arranged?
33990Under the circumstances I wonder how long our Red Cross unit may remain?"
33990Was it my good fortune or my ill fortune that I landed in Paris just three days before the armistice was signed to begin my Red Cross nursing?
33990Was it possible that she did not desire to forgive and forget as the little German frau appeared to wish?
33990Was it singular that one could not recover from the sensation of acute distrust in the presence of a German?
33990Was it true that Captain Ludwig Liedermann was still unable to move from his bed?
33990Was there not a grave near Château- Thierry and a memory which must forever divide them?
33990What are you thinking about?"
33990What do you think we should do?"
33990What matter if the Germans had failed in their war against freedom, if her own freedom was still denied her?
33990What on earth made you come for a walk without any warmer clothes?
33990What would she do when she returned to the old narrowness of her past existence with the eternal disagreements?
33990What would you do?
33990When love hath flown, who shall endure?"
33990Where, child, had you ever heard my name?"
33990Why not talk to her?
33990Will you ask him to give me a few moments?
33990Will you meet me in an hour under the big linden tree in the park where Freia and Gretchen tell me you are in the habit of playing with them?
33990Will you trust me and not report my actions to any one for the present?"
33990Would Major Hersey also try to be present?
33990Would it do the least good?
33990Would n''t you like to share my fame?"
33990Yet what is the harm in my amusing myself?
33990You do n''t mind my being a little complimentary?"
33990You have relatives here whom you are intending to visit?"
33990You wo n''t mind if I go on eating a moment longer, will you?
17366Can you attribute these symptoms to anything else but poison?
17366Do you think the patient is much weaker than he was six weeks ago?
17366How often have the bowels acted, nurse?
17366Then why_ do_ you lie on that side?
17366Why do n''t you take a little more exercise and amusement?
17366Again, I say, what_ is_ the nurse or friend there for except to take note of these things, instead of the patient doing so?
17366Again, the question is sometimes put, Is there diarrhoea?
17366Again, the question, How is your appetite?
17366And everybody cries, who would have thought it?
17366And if they have, why must yours have them too?
17366And if you never clean your furniture properly, how can your rooms or wards be anything but musty?
17366And of how much importance it is that it should not be so?
17366And why is it not as easy to be punctual to a minute?
17366And why should it be so?
17366And, in the other great cities of England, nearly one out of two?
17366As to food, for instance, I often think that most common question, How is your appetite?
17366But can you not insure that it is done when not done by yourself?
17366But does it ever occur to them that with many arrangements of this kind it would be safer to keep the windows shut than open?
17366But it_ is_ possible to press upon her to think for herself: Now what does happen during my absence?
17366But of whom else, if you wish for a real answer to your question, would you ask it?
17366But what is the deduction?
17366But what should we think of such an excuse as this: that the enemy had entered such a post because A and not B had been on guard?
17366But which is most likely to be wrong?
17366But who learns the lesson?
17366But who would ever think of citing the institution of a Women''s Hospital as the way to cure this want?
17366But why must other children have measles?
17366Can human perversity any farther go, in unmaking the process of restoration which God has made?
17366Can such an illness be unaccompanied with suffering?
17366Can you insure that it is not undone when your back is turned?
17366Do we really place the love of our kind( and of nursing, as one branch of it,) so low as this?
17366Does not the popular idea of"infection"involve that people should take greater care of themselves than of the patient?
17366Has it not had a single chance to be aired?
17366Have you never observed that any room without a fire- place is always close?
17366How can a medical officer mount guard all day and all night over a patient( say) in_ delirium tremens_?
17366How can it be otherwise?
17366How can they find it out otherwise?
17366How could"he know it"?
17366I have often been asked the question for uninhabited rooms-- But when ought the windows to be opened?
17366I saw him the day before; I thought him so much better; there certainly was no appearance from which one could have expected so sudden(?)
17366If we are asked, Is such or such a disease a reparative process?
17366If you wait till your patients tell you, or remind you of these things, where is the use of their having a nurse?
17366In this respect( and why is it so?
17366In what sense is"sickness"being"always there,"a justification of its being"there"at all?
17366Is all this premature suffering and death necessary?
17366Is it not living in a continual mistake to look upon diseases, as we do now, as separate entities, which_ must_ exist, like cats and dogs?
17366It is constantly objected,--"But how can I obtain this medical knowledge?
17366Now in what sense was this woman to be called a"nurse?"
17366Now the doctor should be told this, or how can he judge what to give?
17366Now what does she do and what are the consequences?
17366Now what is a nurse to do in such a case?
17366Now what kind of a nurse is this?
17366Now, do tell us, why must a child have measles?

17366Why can not these, at most, four persons be put in charge as to what is to be done when there is a ring at the door bell?

17366Why will we not observe what they are?

17366Would it not be far better, truer, and more practical, if we looked upon disease in this light?

12439Do you think the patient is much weaker than he was six weeks ago?
12439How often have the bowels acted, nurse?
12439Then why_ do_ you lie on that side?
12439Again, I say, what_ is_ the nurse or friend there for except to take note of these things, instead of the patient doing so?
12439Again, the question, How is your appetite?
12439And everybody cries, Who would have thought it?
12439And if they have, why must yours have them too?
12439And if you never clean your furniture properly, how can your rooms or wards be anything but musty?
12439And of how much importance it is that it should not be so?
12439And why is it not as easy to be punctual to a minute?
12439And why should it be so?
12439And, in the other great cities of England, nearly one out of two?
12439As to food, for instance, I often think that most common question, How is your appetite?
12439But can you not insure that it is done when not done by yourself?
12439But does it ever occur to them that with many arrangements of this kind it would be safer to keep the windows shut than open?
12439But it_ is_ possible to press upon her to think for herself: Now what does happen during my absence?
12439But of whom else, if you wish for a real answer to your question, would you ask?
12439But what is the deduction?
12439But what should we think of such an excuse as this: that the enemy had entered such a post because A and not B had been on guard?
12439But which is most likely to be wrong?
12439But who learns the lesson?
12439But who would ever think of citing the institution of a Women''s Hospital as the way to cure this want?
12439But why must other children have measles?
12439Can human perversity any farther go, in unmaking the process of restoration which God has made?
12439Can such an illness be unaccompanied with suffering?
12439Can you insure that it is not undone when your back is turned?
12439Do we really place the love of our kind( and of nursing, as one branch of it) so low as this?
12439Does not the popular idea of"infection"involve that people should take greater care of themselves than of the patient?
12439FOOTNOTES:[ 1][ Sidenote: Why are uninhabited rooms shut up?]
12439Has it not had a single chance to be aired?
12439Have you never observed that any room without a fire- place is always close?
12439How can it be otherwise?
12439How can they find it out otherwise?
12439How could"he know it?"
12439I have often been asked the question for uninhabited rooms.--But when ought the windows to be opened?
12439I saw him the day before; I thought him so much better; there certainly was no appearance from which one could have expected so sudden(?)
12439If we are asked, Is such or such a disease a reparative process?
12439If you wait till your patients tell you, or remind you of these things, where is the use of their having a nurse?
12439In this respect( and why is it so?
12439In what sense is"sickness"being"always there,"a justification of its being"there"at all?
12439Is all this premature suffering and death necessary?
12439Is it not living in a continual mistake to look upon diseases, as we do now, as separate entities, which_ must_ exist, like cats and dogs?
12439It is constantly objected,--"But how can I obtain this medical knowledge?
12439Now in what sense was this woman to be called a"nurse?"
12439Now the doctor should be told this, or how can he judge what to give?
12439Now what does she do and what are the consequences?
12439Now what is a nurse to do in such a case?
12439Now what kind of a nurse is this?
12439Now, do tell us, why must a child have measles?
12439Or did Nature intend mothers to be always accompanied by doctors?

53730And I wonder how you formed that opinion, Nona? 53730 And Monsieur Bebé?"
53730Are n''t you pleased to see me, Barbara-- Miss Meade?
53730Are you disappointed in what they wish you to do, Barbara, child?
53730Are you disgusted with me, Gene?
53730Are you very rich, Eugenia Peabody?
53730Barbara?
53730But I thought I was to be your guest of honor, Gene?
53730But if Eugenia understood what she would have to face, whatever made her do such a mad thing? 53730 But is n''t Nona one of the prettiest girls you ever saw and the most charming?"
53730But you have n''t said what the trouble is between us, Bab, or whether you are willing to forgive me?
53730Can we stop a minute somewhere, Gene, before we get back to the house? 53730 Desert us?"
53730Dick Thornton, can it be possible this is you, when you are in Brussels?
53730Dick,she said in an awed tone,"did n''t you use_ both_ your arms just now, when you kept me from falling?"
53730Did anyone in the world ever talk in such a ridiculous fashion as Barbara, and yet was there ever anyone so delightful?
53730Do n''t you understand what the ivy means?
53730Do you know what ivy stands for?
53730Do you know, girls, Eugenia Peabody has become a mystery to me lately? 53730 Does he appear more cheerful since I left him with you a week ago?"
53730Great heavens, who was that, Gene?
53730How are things going, Bibo?
53730How can one help being? 53730 How could I?
53730I know it is a painful situation, Eugenia dear, but what_ can_ you do with three babies? 53730 I say, Barbara, why ca n''t I go along with you?"
53730I say, which would you prefer, to talk to a man without a collar or to help him put one on? 53730 I wish you could persuade Barbara Meade to share that idea of yours, Nona?"
53730I wonder if I shall ever learn what to say and what not to say, Gene?
53730Is that American frankness, Eugenie? 53730 Let us have tea, wo n''t you, please, Dick?"
53730Please wait a while, Madame Carton, if possible, until I can see you again?
53730Shall we tell Barbara now?
53730Sounds polite, does n''t it, what I am trying to say? 53730 Tell me, Miss Peabody, what do you think I should do?"
53730That is tremendously good news, is n''t it? 53730 Then Gene is well?"
53730Was Dick here this afternoon?
53730We were hurt with Eugenia for not taking us into her confidence sooner, were n''t we?
53730What do you mean?
53730What do you suppose father really did mean, then, Mill?
53730What does this mean?
53730What is it you wish me to persuade Barbara to believe?
53730What is it, Dick?
53730What is the matter, Bab? 53730 What possible harm could be done if Monsieur Bebé, in reality Albert Reney, be transferred to Eugenia''s home in the woods?
53730What shall I do? 53730 What would Eugenia have done for one of them under the same circumstances?"
53730What would you give to have that same little French girl, Nicolete, talk to you some day not very far off?
53730Whose room is this, Eugenia? 53730 Why do n''t you say something, Gene?"
53730Why do you happen to be wearing that spray of ivy so proudly, Dick?
53730Why should I try to deceive you? 53730 Why, what does this mean, Eugenia?"
53730Will you wait a moment, please, until the children can be taken to another part of the yard?
53730You do n''t mean, Eugenia Peabody, that you have decided to give up the Red Cross work and go back home? 53730 Your place beside me?"
53730Am I ever going to be sensible again?"
53730And how was it possible that any human being could escape from Belgium whom the Germans wished to detain?
53730Are you a princess in disguise?
53730Ask her as a favor to me?"
53730But I wonder if it is fair to Mildred and Nona to have you leave them for even a short time?
53730But how convince her of this at the present moment?
53730But how could any human being have suspected Eugenia of riches when she wore such dreadful clothes?"
53730But it is true, is n''t it, Eugenia, that if one is happy oneself, it is not hard to bear the sufferings of other people?
53730But the fact is, I did n''t care then, because, because-- Oh, why is it so hard to get it out, Gene?
53730But what was the root of the trouble between her and her two former friends?
53730But why, after all, had Nicolete decided to come away with them from her own beloved land?
53730Ca n''t you help me?
53730Ca n''t you think of some way to save us_ all_?"
53730Did you think for an instant I would allow you and Eugenia to go on this long trip alone, when Eugenia has been so ill?
53730Do old maids now and then represent the real mother spirit?
53730Do you remember two Red Cross nurses to whom you gave some flowers that you and the other soldiers had made grow in the mouth of your trench?
53730Do you think I''ll make a great failure as a mother, Bab?"
53730For was not Dick a soldier of peace rather than of war, yet one who had made the same sacrifice?
53730How big was Eugenia''s house and her sympathy these days?
53730How long must I serve before you return my affection?"
53730How was she to make him see Eugenia''s point of view?
53730I believe it was the first evening after Dick Thornton arrived in Brussels?
53730I ca n''t tell her this to her face though, can I, Eugenia?
53730I do n''t see why girls need always be ashamed of caring for people who do n''t care for them?
53730I do n''t suppose you have the faintest idea of what I am trying to say?
53730I know it is an ungrateful present, but you''ll listen, wo n''t you?"
53730I never believed Nona as strong as you, Barbara, so why do you seem so used up?
53730I wonder if it was because you were brought up in the south that you are so conventional?
53730I wonder if real saints ever had such traits of character?
53730If I can not like her now because she is prettier and more charming than I am, then why did I like her at the beginning of our acquaintance?
53730If possible, would you like one of us to write you?"
53730Is it because you enjoy looking after the Belgian children?"
53730Is that why you haunt the church of Saint Gudula?"
53730Is there any one here to assist you?"
53730Is your work at the hospital more difficult than hers?"
53730May I buy the house from your mother?
53730May I go inside and see?"
53730Moreover, where could she be going?
53730Or was he hearing again the cracking of rifles, the booming of cannon, all the noises of the past year of life in a trench?
53730Shall I return to Brussels and give us all up to the authorities?"
53730Should she insist that Dick was not in love with Nona when she knew absolutely nothing about it?
53730Suppose they should be compelled to scamper for shelter just at the critical moment in Eugenia''s plans?
53730Suppose this Miss Peabody should be so inconsiderate as to die?
53730Then I wonder if it is best I should leave you alone?
53730Then afterwards we both watched Nicolete dance and you threw her a spray of mignonette?"
53730Was he dreaming of Provence before France was driven into war?
53730Was it not possible that Eugenia be removed to a hospital or to her own home until she recovered?
53730What could she have in mind this afternoon of greater importance?
53730What could_ I_ possibly do to help you?
53730What excuse did she have for saving the man and his family?
53730What had_ they_ to do with this war and its horrors?
53730What is it that has been making you feel and behave so differently toward me lately?
53730What makes you believe as you do, Barbara?"
53730What other reason could she have, except to spare me humiliation, for refusing to have anything to do with me since I came to Brussels?
53730What possible danger could come to these little kiddies and me?"
53730What right had she to be jealous and miserable because a beautiful experience had come to Nona and Dick?
53730Which one of you shall it be?"
53730Who do you think arrived in Brussels today to help with the American Relief work?"
53730Whom had she in hiding all these weeks, risking her own liberty for his or her safety?
53730Why had he not made the suggestion to Barbara Meade rather than to her?
53730Why had she not come with them this afternoon?
53730Why should any one of us expect her to be?"
53730Will you go with me upon a more cheerful excursion some day?"
53730Will you listen while I read it to you?
53730Wo n''t you wear this?"
53730Wonder if you have ever guessed my secret, Nona?"
53730Would you like Nona and me to leave you?
53730Yet it must be some one whose safety her friend considered of great importance, for had she not deliberately lied to her?
53730Yet what reason could there have been for not telling her they expected Richard Thornton''s appearance in Brussels on this particular afternoon?
53730You are not trying to play at being the patron saint of Brussels, are you?
53730Your place is with them rather than any one else, is n''t it?"
