22098 | Is he the God of the Jews only? 22098 Well,"says one,"what is the meaning of the texts which you have quoted, where it speaks of Sabbaths?" |

22098 | _ These are the_ FEASTS_ of the Lord, which ye shall proclaim in their[ 13]seasons_, EVERY THING UPON HIS DAY--37th v.( May we not deviate a little? |
22098 | ''Has the day been changed?'' |
22098 | ( Does Paul here teach us to forsake the ordinances of God, instituted by the Saviour-- Baptism and the Lord''s Supper? |
22098 | ( Now if the Sabbath had been changed or abolished, would it not have been_ profitable_ to have told them so?) |
22098 | ( Why is it Lord?) |
22098 | ( what you have been taught before)_ the Sabbath day to keep it holy_;"( which day is it Lord?) |
22098 | --What_ law_ is here established? |
22098 | 16, 17 v._ Who are the true Israelites?_ Answer, God''s people. |
22098 | A question was asked, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? |
22098 | Again, if the Sabbath was not instituted in Paradise, why did Moses mention it in connection with the creation of the world? |
22098 | Again, is it right and lawful to carry forth our dead on the Sabbath? |
22098 | And did not God require them to keep THE Sabbath before he made this covenant with them in Horeb? |
22098 | Are we_ all_ right? |
22098 | By what authority do you call the seventh day Sabbath, the Jewish Sabbath? |
22098 | Can it be supposed that his fixing on upon_ seven_ was accidental? |
22098 | Did he break the Sabbath? |
22098 | Did he keep the commandments? |
22098 | Did not God say that Abraham kept his commandments, statutes, and laws? |
22098 | Did our Saviour ever meet with his disciples on the first day of the week after the evening of the day of his resurrection? |
22098 | Do you ask for any more evidence that these are the Jewish Sabbaths, and that God''s Sabbath is separate from them? |
22098 | Do you ask for the proof? |
22098 | Does he not say that he is the Shepherd of the Sheep,--what, of the Jews only? |
22098 | Does not Isaiah say that God will bless the_ man_, and the_ son_ of_ man_, and the_ sons_ of the_ stranger_, that keep THE Sabbath? |
22098 | Does this differ from the_ law_ God? |
22098 | Does this look like abolishing the Sabbath day? |
22098 | FIRST QUESTION IS, WHEN WAS THE SABBATH INSTITUTED? |
22098 | Has anything been said about the 1st day yet? |
22098 | He asks them if they had a sheep fall into the ditch on the Sabbath, if they would not haul him out? |
22098 | Hear Paul:"Is he the God of the Jews only? |
22098 | His answer is,"Why do ye transgress the commandment of God?" |
22098 | How is that, says one? |
22098 | How much better then is a man than a sheep? |
22098 | How? |
22098 | IF SO, WHEN, AND FOR WHAT REASON? |
22098 | IF SO, WHEN, AND WHERE IS THE PROOF? |
22098 | If God instituted the Sabbath in Paradise and has not abolished it here, then must it be_ perpetual_? |
22098 | If you do n''t know, why are you so sure that the_ first_ day is right? |
22098 | Is he not also of the Gentiles? |
22098 | Is he not also of the[ 45]Gentiles? |
22098 | Is it not clear, then, that the Sabbath was made for Adam and his posterity, the whole family of_ man_? |
22098 | Is not the Sabbath included in these commandments? |
22098 | Is not the stranger and all within their gates included in the covenant to keep the Sabbath? |
22098 | Now I ask if there is one particle of proof that the Sabbath of the Lord is included in these Sabbaths and feast days? |
22098 | Now I ask if this looks like Sunday, the first day of the week? |
22098 | Now we ask, if God has ever abrogated the law of the Sabbath? |
22098 | Now why this preference for the number_ seven_? |
22098 | Of what_ law_? |
22098 | Once more,"One came and said unto him, good master what good thing shall I do that I may have eternal life? |
22098 | Says one, has not the ceremonial law been annulled and nailed to the cross? |
22098 | Sick, or well, ministers or laymen, do they not ride back and forth to meeting? |
22098 | The 2d question is, did our Lord ever trifle with, or mislead his disciples? |
22098 | The first question is, at what age of the world is this, where our Lord recognizes the Sabbath? |
22098 | The law of ceremonies? |
22098 | The second question then, is this: HAS THE SABBATH BEEN ABOLISHED SINCE THE SEVENTH DAY OF CREATION? |
22098 | The third question: WAS THE SEVENTH- DAY SABBATH EVER CHANGED? |
22098 | Then he asked him which? |
22098 | To the Colossians he asks,"Why as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances where all are to perish with their using?" |
22098 | To what people did_ the_ Sabbath belong at the destruction of Jerusalem, nearly forty years after the crucifixion? |
22098 | Very well then, does not the_ seventh_ come the day before the eighth? |
22098 | Was not the second covenant written on the hearts of the Gentile, even the law of Commandments? |
22098 | What do you mean by_ beginning_? |
22098 | What does God say of Abraham? |
22098 | What was it? |
22098 | Where do you draw the distinguishing line, to show which is and which is not MAN between the_ natural seed of Abraham_ and the Gentiles? |
22098 | Where is the precept? |
22098 | Where was it then? |
22098 | Where? |
22098 | Where? |
22098 | Which day now will you choose? |
22098 | Who is the stranger? |
22098 | Who shall settle this question? |
22098 | Why did he say,"Think not I am come to destroy the_ law_ or the prophets? |
22098 | Why was it Paul''s manner always to preach on the seventh day Sabbath to Jews and Gentiles? |
22098 | Why? |
22098 | Why? |
22098 | Why? |
22098 | Why? |
22098 | Yes, but what of that? |
22098 | _ First then, the distinction of the two codes by Jesus._ The Pharisees ask the Saviour why his disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? |
22098 | _ Has the Sabbath been abolished since the seventh day of creation? |
22098 | _ Was the seventh day Sabbath ever changed? |
22098 | _ When was the Sabbath instituted?_ Here we have endeavored to show when, and how it continued until its re- enactment on Mount Sinai. |
22098 | and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and the end of the world? |
22098 | every one that keepeth the Sabbath from polluting it,( does he mean me? |
22098 | iii: 31, he closes with this language:"Do we then make void the law through faith? |
22098 | our Saviour says to his disciples, in answer to their questions, When shall these things be? |
22098 | why not five or ten days, or any other number? |
22098 | xvi: 23) and then state that the seventh day Sabbath commenced, as_ some_ will have it? |
27266 | A new commandment I give unto you,( what is it, Lord?) 27266 Also the sons of the stranger,( who are these if they are not Gentiles?) |
27266 | Is he the God of the Jews only? 27266 Well,"says one,"what is the meaning of the texts which you have quoted, where it speaks of Sabbaths?" |
27266 | What is written in the law? 27266 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments"& c. Did he mean the ten commandments? |
27266 | _ These are the_ FEASTS_ of the Lord, which ye shall proclaim in their[ 15]seasons_, EVERY THING UPON HIS DAY--37th v.( May we not deviate a little? |
27266 | ( Does Paul here teach us to forsake the ordinances of God, instituted by the Saviour-- Baptism and the Lord''s Supper? |
27266 | ( Now if the Sabbath had been changed or abolished, would it not have been_ profitable_ to have told them so?) |
27266 | ( Why is it Lord?) |
27266 | ( what you have been taught before)_ the Sabbath day to keep it holy_;"( which day is it Lord?) |
27266 | --What_ law_ is here established? |
27266 | 16, 17 v._ Who are the true Israelites?_ Answer, God''s people. |
27266 | A question was asked, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? |
27266 | Again, if the Sabbath was not instituted in Paradise, why did Moses mention it in connection with the creation of the world? |
27266 | Again, is it right and lawful to carry forth our dead on the Sabbath? |
27266 | And God''s people did respond to that call and come out, does any one ask where from? |
27266 | And did not God require them to keep THE Sabbath before he made this covenant with them in Horeb? |
27266 | Are these_ shadows_? |
27266 | Are we_ all_ right? |
27266 | But did they not keep the commandments of God before this company was developed? |
27266 | But do not some of the rest go in? |
27266 | But says the reader, there are tens of thousands that are looking for Jesus, that do nt believe the above doctrines, what will become of them? |
27266 | By what authority do you call the seventh day Sabbath, the Jewish Sabbath? |
27266 | Can it be proved that God ever altered or changed the truth? |
27266 | Can it be supposed that his fixing on upon_ seven_ was accidential? |
27266 | Dare you run such a risk because the great mass of professed believers in Christendom are doing so? |
27266 | Did he break the Sabbath? |
27266 | Did he keep the commandments? |
27266 | Did not God say that Abraham kept his commandments, statutes, and laws? |
27266 | Did our Saviour ever meet with his disciples on the first day of the week after the[ 39]evening of the day of his resurrection? |
27266 | Do you ask for any more evidence that these are the Jewish Sabbaths, and that God''s Sabbath is separate from them? |
27266 | Do you ask for the foundation for this mass of evidence? |
27266 | Do you ask for the proof? |
27266 | Do you perceive that the seventh day Sabbath is God''s first_ law_ for man? |
27266 | Do you think you can be saved by such a_ faith_ and_ practice_? |
27266 | Does he not say that he is the Shepherd of the Sheep?--What, of the Jews only? |
27266 | Does not Isaiah say that God will bless the_ man_, and the_ son_ of_ man_, and the_ sons_ of the_ stranger_, that keep THE Sabbath? |
27266 | Does the changing of the law by the little horn bring peace? |
27266 | Does this differ from the_ law_ of God? |
27266 | Does this look like abolishing the Sabbath day? |
27266 | Echo answers, who can alter this covenant? |
27266 | Has anything been said about the 1st day yet? |
27266 | He asks them if they had a sheep fall into the ditch on the Sabbath, if they would not haul him out? |
27266 | He says"Blessed is the_ man_( are not the Gentiles men?) |
27266 | Hear Paul:"Is he the God of the Jews only? |
27266 | His answer is,"Why do ye transgress the commandment of God?" |
27266 | How is that, says one? |
27266 | How much better then is a man than a sheep? |
27266 | How? |
27266 | How? |
27266 | I ask if it could be so if any of the_ law_ should fail? |
27266 | IF SO WHEN, AND FOR WHAT REASON? |
27266 | IF SO, WHEN, AND WHERE IS THE PROOF? |
27266 | If you do n''t know, why are you so sure that the_ first_ day is right? |
27266 | Indeed it is impossible that the law of God could be changed; do you say it is possible I may be mistaken? |
27266 | Is he not also of the Gentiles? |
27266 | Is he not also of the Gentiles? |
27266 | Is it not clear, then, that the Sabbath was made for Adam and his posterity, the whole family of_ man_? |
27266 | Is not the stranger and all within their gates included in the covenant to keep the Sabbath? |
27266 | Is not this as much as 63,000 years in the future? |
27266 | Is not this the same_ law_ as in Luke 16: 17? |
27266 | Is there an individual with common sense in the world that dare risk his reputation in such kind of logic? |
27266 | Is this a safe rule for us? |
27266 | Jesus"said unto him what is written in the LAW? |
27266 | Now I ask if this looks like Sunday, the first day of the week? |
27266 | Now has this new covenant been broken by man as was the first? |
27266 | Now we ask, if God has ever abrogated the law of the Sabbath? |
27266 | Now what is this faith or"testimony of Jesus?" |
27266 | Now why this preference for the number_ seven_? |
27266 | Of what_ law_? |
27266 | Once more,"One came and said unto him, good master what good thing shall I do that I may have eternal life? |
27266 | Once more: He says the Gentiles having not the_ law_, are a_ law_ unto themselves.--Why? |
27266 | Page 26: perish with their using? |
27266 | Says one, has not the ceremonial law been annulled and nailed to the cross? |
27266 | Says the reader, what do you think about those that have died in faith, keeping the first day Sabbath? |
27266 | Sick, or well, ministers or laymen, do they not ride back and forth to meeting? |
27266 | The 2d question is, did our Lord ever trifle with or mislead his disciples? |
27266 | The law of ceremonies? |
27266 | The lawyer says,"Master what shall I do to inherit eternal life?" |
27266 | The second question then, is this: HAS THE SABBATH BEEN ABOLISHED SINCE THE SEVENTH DAY OF CREATION? |
27266 | The third question: WAS THE SEVENTH DAY SABBATH EVER CHANGED? |
27266 | To what people_ did_ the Sabbath belong at the destruction of Jerusalem, nearly forty years after the crucifixion? |
27266 | Very well then, does not the_ seventh_ come the day before the eighth? |
27266 | WHO ARE THE TRUE ISRAEL? |
27266 | Was not the second covenant written on the hearts of the Gentile, even the law of Commandments? |
27266 | Well then how does it come to be understood at this point of time? |
27266 | Well, were they not all good christians that obeyed and came out of Babylon? |
27266 | Well, who are left out? |
27266 | What are they, Lord? |
27266 | What can you prove by it if it is changed or abolished? |
27266 | What did the apostle say were_ shadows_? |
27266 | What do you mean Paul? |
27266 | What do you mean by_ beginning_? |
27266 | What does God say of Abraham? |
27266 | What does he mean by shadow? |
27266 | What for? |
27266 | What is the reason of this? |
27266 | What was it? |
27266 | When and where has God abolished his_ commandments_ and laws? |
27266 | When, and where did God ever sanctify the_ first_, or any other day but the seventh to be kept for a holy day of rest? |
27266 | Where do you draw the distinguishing line, to show which is and which is not MAN between the_ natural seed of Abraham_ and the Gentiles? |
27266 | Where is the precept? |
27266 | Where was it then? |
27266 | Where? |
27266 | Where? |
27266 | Who is the stranger? |
27266 | Who shall settle this question? |
27266 | Who then can alter this covenant? |
27266 | Who then can change the Sabbath? |
27266 | Why did he say,"Think not I am come to destroy the_ law_ or the prophets? |
27266 | Why then has the church lost sight of them? |
27266 | Why was it Paul''s manner always to preach on the seventh day Sabbath to Jews and Gentiles? |
27266 | Why? |
27266 | Why? |
27266 | Why? |
27266 | Why? |
27266 | Will God ever justify any living soul for attempting to keep one of the six working days holy? |
27266 | Will he break it, then think ye? |
27266 | Yes, but what of that? |
27266 | [ 5]THE SABBATH FIRST QUESTION IS, WHEN WAS THE SABBATH INSTITUTED? |
27266 | _ First then, the distinction of the two codes by Jesus._ The Pharisees ask the Saviour why his disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? |
27266 | _ Has the Sabbath been abolished since the seventh day of creation? |
27266 | _ Was the seventh day Sabbath ever changed? |
27266 | _ When was the Sabbath instituted?_ Here we have endeavored to show when, and how it continued until its re- enactment on Mount Sinai. |
27266 | and what shall be the sign of thy coming and the end of the world? |
27266 | describe a great multitude saved after the 144,000? |
27266 | every one that keepeth the Sabbath from polluting it,( does he mean me? |
27266 | how readest thou?" |
27266 | how readest thou?" |
27266 | iii: 31 he closes with this language:"Do we then make void the law through faith? |
27266 | ix: 5. Who believes that the person that refrains from worshiping''idols or images,''will be saved for that? |
27266 | or because he honors his father or mother? |
27266 | or because he is no murderer? |
27266 | or does not commit adultery, or steal, or bear false witness, or covet, or not swear? |
27266 | or rather the Covenant in them of the 7th day Sabbath? |
27266 | our Saviour says to his disciples in answer to their questions, when shall these things be? |
27266 | unless he meant it to be dated from that very day? |
27266 | vii: 19, and says circumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing,( what_ is_, Paul?) |
27266 | why not five or ten days, or any other number? |
27266 | xvi: 23) and then state that the seventh day Sabbath commenced, as_ some_ will have it? |
27266 | xx and xxxi.--Which day now will you choose? |
45537 | Alice, is some not very distant city representing China? 45537 And about the Committee on Award; you will attend to that, Claire, will you not?" |

45537 | And did n''t you know his daughter? |
45537 | And do n''t you think that he will have to die, and go to the judgment, and meet God? |
45537 | And do the girls like to be here at school while the family is away? |
45537 | And have no responsibilities connected with him? |

45537 | And this young lady? |

45537 | Bud,said the minister, turning suddenly away from his book- shelves,"how many persons are there at Snyder''s?" |
45537 | Bud,she said, stopping at the bell- rope where he tolled the bell,"if you will let me take your Bible after church-- did you bring it with you? |
45537 | Bud,she said,"are you going to see me home through this snow- storm? |
45537 | But do you really mean that they habitually go ten miles to church each Sabbath, when there is one right at their doors that they might attend? 45537 But does n''t he want to be paid?" |
45537 | But is that reply worthy of a reasoning being? 45537 But that does n''t mean the building, does it, Miss Benedict?" |
45537 | But they are very expensive, are they not? |
45537 | But you believe in the Bible? |
45537 | But you like music, do n''t you? |
45537 | Come down, wo n''t you, Louis? 45537 Did you ever try to tell her?" |
45537 | Did you fall, Miss Benedict? 45537 Did you know Jack, ma''am?" |
45537 | Did you never read any verses in the Bible? |
45537 | Difficulties too hard for God to surmount? 45537 Do n''t you sing at all?" |
45537 | Do with him? |
45537 | Do you always give a tenth of everything you have? |
45537 | Do you feel sure that there is no hope of help from that source? 45537 Do you know from what source I mean?" |
45537 | Do you mean it? 45537 Do you mean that the Ansteds_ live_ there?" |
45537 | Do you mean that you have no hope of his recovery? |
45537 | Do you really think so? 45537 Do you suppose he is ready?" |
45537 | Do you think his character worthy of admiration? |
45537 | Do you think so? 45537 Do you think, then, that he has no soul?" |
45537 | Doctor, is our patient gaining? |
45537 | Doctor, what do you think? |
45537 | Does he use wines freely? |
45537 | Fairyland? |
45537 | Fallen humanity? 45537 For the benefit of the church?" |
45537 | Has the_ church_ been? |
45537 | Have you really come to help us? |
45537 | How can I tell? 45537 How can you be sure of that? |
45537 | How could money undo it, my friend? |
45537 | How could we do anything? |
45537 | How do you know I want you to do anything? |
45537 | How does she know that any of us are Christians? |
45537 | How many things you are going to do to- morrow, Claire? 45537 How pretty it is,"Claire said, watching the crimson silk flowers grow on the canvas under skillful fingers;"do you enjoy working on it?" |
45537 | How? 45537 I beg pardon, ma''am,"he said, and even at that moment he waited to lift his hat,"did you fall? |
45537 | I beg your pardon,she said, sympathetically,"does your ankle pain you so badly? |
45537 | I know she is''gooder,''that is what I say; but ought not we to be the same? 45537 I reckon it would be the truth, sir; cause how would they know how to make it up alike?" |
45537 | I wonder how the old church would do? |
45537 | I wonder if Joe and Charlie would not help us? |
45537 | I wonder if one thing that I have to tell will surprise you, or vex you, or whether you will not care anything about it? 45537 Is Louis Ansted going with you?" |
45537 | Is he inclined to accompany me, do you think? 45537 Is he still on terms of special intimacy with the VanMarters?" |
45537 | Is it a sprain, do you think? |
45537 | Is it true about the society owing him? |
45537 | Is n''t she sweet? |
45537 | Is n''t there anything else? |
45537 | Is she nice? 45537 Is that brief and abrupt enough?" |
45537 | Is there hope that he will in time? |
45537 | Mamma, Alice, where are some of you? |
45537 | Mamma, do you know? 45537 May I ask you why?" |
45537 | Miss Ansted,he said, and she noticed that his voice trembled,"would you tell me one thing that I want to know right away?" |
45537 | Mr. Ansted, do you know, I wish I could enlist both you and your sisters as helpers in the renovation of the old church down town? |
45537 | Mr. Ansted, why do n''t you help him? |
45537 | Now, who is going to enlighten her? 45537 Of what special use is it for me to suggest ways, since you receive them with such determined refusals?" |
45537 | Oh, Claire, do you suppose papa knows of all these little stings that we have to bear? 45537 Oh, did you see Mr. Strausser? |
45537 | Oh, is it possible you do n''t remember him? 45537 Oh, then let me put the question a little differently: Do you believe in Jesus Christ?" |
45537 | Paid? 45537 The building is the outward sign of His presence, is it not? |
45537 | Then we ca n''t_ coax_ people to buy tickets? |
45537 | Then, am I to understand that you do n''t know but you may be one? |
45537 | They expect him back to- morrow? |
45537 | Uncle Harold, did n''t you know the Benedicts? |
45537 | WHY are not the Ansted girls included among our workers? |
45537 | We wo n''t fail,said Ruth indignantly,"and if we do, ca n''t you conceive of the possibility of our being honest? |
45537 | Well, but suppose this half- awakened person were married to the party in China-- what then? |
45537 | Well, what am I talking about? 45537 Were you educated for the bar, Miss Benedict? |
45537 | What Benedicts? |
45537 | What are you talking about? |
45537 | What do you mean? |
45537 | What do you mean? |
45537 | What have we here? |
45537 | What in the world are they? |
45537 | What is in the way, Mr. Matthews? 45537 What is the accelerating cause?" |
45537 | What is the verse? |
45537 | What is there pleasant in Chester? 45537 What_ is_ the matter with her?" |
45537 | When do you intend to start? 45537 Where are they?" |
45537 | Where is the family? 45537 Who does it?" |
45537 | Who is Bud? |
45537 | Who is Harold Chessney? |
45537 | Who is she? |
45537 | Who is your recruit? |
45537 | Who would come? |
45537 | Why do you say''perhaps,''you naughty croaker? 45537 Why do you want to go, Bud?" |
45537 | Why does n''t it? |
45537 | Why does not your mother know? |
45537 | Why has she not been exerting her influence to help poor Louis? |
45537 | Why on earth do you wish to know that? 45537 Why was father, a man so good, so true, so grand, so sadly needed in this wicked world, snatched from it just in the prime of his power?" |
45537 | Why, I wonder? |
45537 | Why? |
45537 | Will you allow me to ask_ you_ one question, Mr. Ansted? 45537 Will you tell me which one of the three reasons you gave is yours?" |
45537 | Wo n''t you please tell me why? |
45537 | Wo n''t you simply answer it? |
45537 | Would mamma be so kind as to call on Mr. Parkhurst, the one who was chief man at the carpet factory up there by papa''s old mill, you know? 45537 Would you marry a man, if you thought you might possibly be the means of saving his soul?" |
45537 | Would you, I wonder? 45537 Yes, as one who once lived in person on this earth, and died on a cross, and went back to heaven, and is to come again at some future time?" |
45537 | You can read, ca n''t you? |
45537 | You did not know you had company, did you, my boy? |
45537 | You seem to like that work? |
45537 | A word even about Louis Ansted:"Would mamma pray for him, too? |
45537 | About these things nothing must be said, yet could not something be done? |
45537 | And if Jesus could do such great things for Jack, and really wanted_ him_ could he not plan the way? |
45537 | And now I am burning with a desire to ask a rude question: Why do you care to do anything with it? |
45537 | And now his face plainly asked the question:"Why do_ you_ care?" |
45537 | And suggests one of the ways in which we can show our love for the God to whose worship the church is dedicated?" |
45537 | And the other is: Will you all agree to invite them to join us, and do it heartily?" |
45537 | And then he spoke:''Miss Benedict, is it? |
45537 | Ansted?" |
45537 | Ansted?" |
45537 | Ansted?" |
45537 | Are you a Christian?" |
45537 | Are you injured? |
45537 | Are you ready, Bud?" |
45537 | Are you willing to use it for Louis''sake?" |
45537 | As they neared Harry''s door, he said:"What is young Ansted about just now?" |
45537 | Besides, he makes his money in that way; why should n''t he patronize himself?" |
45537 | But I do not know, she might rather have said:"Why in the world must I go to South Plains? |
45537 | But I live such a pent- up, every- day life that I have to say things to you once in a while, else what would become of me?" |
45537 | But how was all this to be done? |
45537 | But that lady unconsciously helped her by asking:"Did you ever meet Mr. Harold Chessney in Boston? |
45537 | But what was the use? |
45537 | But where to begin? |
45537 | But, Miss Benedict, do you believe much could be made just out of hair- pins?" |
45537 | Ca n''t we be told in any way?" |
45537 | Can you imagine something of the contrast? |
45537 | Certainly, this dilemma had its ludicrous side, but had it not also its humiliating one? |
45537 | Claire Benedict, will you try?" |
45537 | Claire questioned to get at the utmost of his knowledge:"And did n''t Jack tell you anything about Jesus and Heaven?" |
45537 | Claire, do you remember how Emmeline''s taste in dress used to amuse him? |
45537 | Claire, do you remember the time papa signed that ten thousand dollar note for her father? |
45537 | Could this be true? |
45537 | Could words better fitted to meet Bud''s heart have been marked in his Bible? |
45537 | Did I tell you about the rusty stoves, whose rusty and cobwebby pipes seemed to wander at their own erratic will about that church? |
45537 | Did he say at what hour? |
45537 | Did he think at all? |
45537 | Did he want her? |
45537 | Did n''t Mary remember that the dear father was dead? |
45537 | Did she grudge him that? |
45537 | Did she not know that he was tempted to reel home at midnight like a common drunkard? |
45537 | Did you ever notice how strangely the avenues for employment which have been just at your side seem to close when there is need? |
45537 | Did you ever notice that the storms of life seem almost never to come in detached waves, but follow each other in rapid succession? |
45537 | Did you ever see a more starched- up linen cuff than this is?" |
45537 | Did you ever try to think what that singing would sound like?" |
45537 | Did you never notice, Claire, that it is impossible to get through a single day just as one plans it?" |
45537 | Did you read a verse each day?" |
45537 | Did you run over her? |
45537 | Did you store it with the other things? |
45537 | Do n''t you really think that Satan has a good deal of control, Miss Benedict?" |
45537 | Do n''t you remember, dear, there can never be another parting from papa? |
45537 | Do n''t you see? |
45537 | Do n''t you think mamma might be made comfortable in South Plains for the winter? |
45537 | Do n''t you think you do, a little?" |
45537 | Do n''t you understand? |
45537 | Do you dare to think that anything will be less than perfect after the weeks of labor we have given it?" |
45537 | Do you have any conception of what a difference it makes to be around the corner from things, instead of being on the same street with them? |
45537 | Do you know anything of his family, Miss Benedict?" |
45537 | Do you mean he will lie there helpless for the rest of his life?" |
45537 | Do you mean that I am foreordained to become a drunkard, and that I can not help myself?" |
45537 | Do you really find it easier to get along with life, now that you have not time to think, as you used?" |
45537 | Do you see how entirely my tongue is silenced? |
45537 | Do you see the accumulation of troubles? |
45537 | Do you shrink from it very much?" |
45537 | Do you suppose St. Paul had to patronize fairs, and buy slippers and things, for the benefit of churches in Ephesus or Corinth?" |
45537 | Do you think Bud could not comprehend as much as that?" |
45537 | Do you think the indications unfavorable?" |
45537 | Do you understand that? |
45537 | Do you understand? |
45537 | Does that old worn- out church really fill your heart as it seems to, so that you can be happy without papa? |
45537 | Executive ability? |
45537 | For purposes of convenience, let us have these two people engaged to each other, but the pledge not consummated before the public-- what then?" |
45537 | Girls, I wonder what the Ansteds think?" |
45537 | Girls,_ will_ the old red curtains do for dusters, do you believe, if we wash them tremendously?" |
45537 | Had poor Bud really met the Lord in the way? |
45537 | Had she been foolish in thus almost stealing his promise? |
45537 | Had she ever before leaned her heart on Christ as she was learning now to do? |
45537 | Had she really missed things of that sort so much? |
45537 | Had the old church won her heart? |
45537 | Has Harold told you that I have found help at last?" |
45537 | Has he mentioned to you my designs?" |
45537 | Has such experience ever been yours? |
45537 | Have I the right? |
45537 | Have n''t I heard that he was connected with one of the distilleries?" |
45537 | Have you a Bible?" |
45537 | Have you been in Chester yet, Miss Benedict? |
45537 | Have you met her?" |
45537 | Have you promised your mother not to sign it?" |
45537 | He tried, however, to steady his voice as he said:"Miss Benedict, what do you mean? |
45537 | He wants to go to school, did you know it? |
45537 | He wants to study arithmetic; it is an absurd idea, I think; what will he ever want of arithmetic? |
45537 | Her eyes must be opened, but how? |
45537 | Here is the opportunity, but where are the words?" |
45537 | How came they to fall into the habit of going so far?" |
45537 | How came this gay young nephew, who had cost him many sleepless nights, to be sufficiently familiar with a prayer- meeting to know who prayed, or how? |
45537 | How can I best help you?" |
45537 | How can I tell that mother that she has robbed herself of her son? |
45537 | How can there be a mistake?" |
45537 | How convince him of his queer mistake? |
45537 | How could I hope to approach your mother on such subjects as these, without having her feel herself insulted?" |
45537 | How could she and her girls help that pastor? |
45537 | How could she exert it so that it would tell on Bud forever? |
45537 | How could she help remembering that in the old home she had been Sidney Benedict''s daughter? |
45537 | How do such things occur? |
45537 | How do you bear it?" |
45537 | How does Pierce know but that in six months it will be Mr. Van Antwerp''s turn? |
45537 | How is it, my boy?" |
45537 | How long would our poor bodies be in breaking under the strain? |
45537 | How many times have you blistered your poor little fingers trying to lift out a hot and heavy pie from the oven?" |
45537 | How much did it mean? |
45537 | How would Claire have answered this question? |
45537 | How?" |
45537 | I did not know that Louis Ansted ever had any such plans, did you?" |
45537 | I do n''t mind the storm, though; only, why did I come? |
45537 | I have always heard that the country was the place to get pies, and custards, and all such good things?" |
45537 | I have changed a great deal since that night you refused to ride with me, have n''t I? |
45537 | I have n''t written so to you before, have I? |
45537 | I have plans which I want to talk over with you to- morrow?" |
45537 | I should like to know just what made the difference?" |
45537 | I wonder if God means me to? |
45537 | I wonder if she has seen better days?" |
45537 | I wonder if there is any way in which I am to help her, and if this is a beginning?" |
45537 | I wonder if you do understand?" |
45537 | I wonder if you ever went through a large, elegantly furnished house, from room to room, and dismantled it? |
45537 | I wonder when they began with such things, mother? |
45537 | I wonder who will have our rooms-- our dear old rooms? |
45537 | If this were the form of cross that she was to bear, it was peculiar, certainly; but why not bear it as well as any other? |
45537 | Is it strictly benevolence, may I ask?" |
45537 | Is my father''s money all gone?" |
45537 | Is n''t it a blessed thing that it is so? |
45537 | Is n''t it curious how time moves along steadily, after the object for which we think time was made has slipped away? |
45537 | Is n''t it queer that she has never sung for us?" |
45537 | Is n''t that a terrible thing to say of one''s brother? |
45537 | Is n''t that the way the advertisements head?" |
45537 | Is not her interest deep enough and her influence strong enough to come to the rescue if she fully understood?" |
45537 | Is she a singer?" |
45537 | Is she losing her mind?" |
45537 | Is that any reason why he should have insulted me? |
45537 | Is that so?" |
45537 | Is there another committee meeting this evening? |
45537 | It could all be suggested to those familiar with the intricacies of the human heart, by that one little word, Why? |
45537 | It is all marked off into verses-- and will you begin to- night?" |
45537 | It meant that she helped at the fancy fairs, and festivals, and bazaars, and what not? |
45537 | It seems wrong to talk about worshipping God in a place that is not even clean, does n''t it?" |
45537 | It would be midnight and after before you could reach the city, and then where would you go? |
45537 | Let me see, are you not all my music pupils? |
45537 | Look at the snow coming down, and we have a rehearsal to- night; do n''t you believe he can shovel paths, as well as make fires?" |
45537 | Louis, can you believe it possible? |
45537 | Louis, too, contributed something besides his fine tenor voice:"What makes your stove smoke so, Bud?" |
45537 | Louis, what has become of that piano- stool we used to have in our library in town? |
45537 | Mamma, do you think Claire ought to attempt so much?" |
45537 | Mamma, what do you suppose Claire would do if she were poor?" |
45537 | May I ask you what possible good it can do you to burden yourself with such senseless confidences as these?" |
45537 | Might I go? |
45537 | Might it not as well have been in Greek? |
45537 | Miss Benedict changed her tactics:"Girls, wait; let me ask you, are Fannie and Ella Ansted Christians?" |
45537 | Miss Benedict, do you sing''Easter Bells?'' |
45537 | Money must certainly be earned, but the grave question was, How? |
45537 | Must it be that they were to be opened by the utter ruin of her only son? |
45537 | Now I ask you a straightforward question: What do you want me to do? |
45537 | Now the question is, what shall we do to the poor fellow?" |
45537 | Now what and where was Jerusalem? |
45537 | Now, do you see any particular enjoyment in that sort of thing?" |
45537 | Now, is n''t that an interesting little romance for a young fellow like me to think out, especially when I do n''t know a thing about it? |
45537 | Now, may I ask you to leave further particulars until another time? |
45537 | Now, what do you want of me?" |
45537 | Oh, mamma, have you that broth ready for aunt Kate? |
45537 | One is: Which is it that stands aloof, and makes no effort to help others, you or the Ansted girls, if you know Christ and they do not? |
45537 | One of the less timid presently rallied sufficiently to make answer:"Dreadful? |
45537 | One question Claire puzzled over in silence: Did the minister really preach a better sermon that evening? |
45537 | One question more:"Will others be sufferers through this disaster?" |
45537 | Ought he not to be equally ready to defend this much- slandered Bible? |
45537 | Ought she to have spoken so hopelessly to him? |
45537 | Ought the boys and girls with whom we five spend so much time, to feel that we just belong to their set, and are in no sense different from them? |
45537 | Ought there not to be some word which an educated man like himself could give in haste to an ignorant boy like Bud? |
45537 | Remember? |
45537 | Ruth, my dear, do they know that you desire to have them happy in Christ, and that you pray for this every day?" |
45537 | Sad- hearted she often was, but what good that those young things should see it? |
45537 | Said Mary Burton:"I wonder what it means, any way, to come out from among them and be separate? |
45537 | Shall I immediately claim relationship?" |
45537 | She could not think of anything else to say, and if she could, what use to say it? |
45537 | She had spoken many words to him; she had written him earnest little notes; what use to say more? |
45537 | She went straight to the centre of the subject:"Then, Mr Ansted, wo n''t you join his army, and come over and help us?" |
45537 | Small wonder, this last, if you had known how many patient hours mamma and Dora had spent in reaching the important decision,"Which shall we send?" |
45537 | So there was only himself to be startled by a low voice from one who had been for so many weeks speechless:"Harold, is it you?" |
45537 | Something so plain that even the pony need not wait while it was being explained? |
45537 | Stuart?" |
45537 | Suppose I am a Christian, what then? |
45537 | Suppose we actually bore on our hearts the individual griefs of the world? |
45537 | Sydney L. He failed, and died, less than a year ago, do n''t you remember?" |
45537 | Tell me this, do you know that he is in danger?" |
45537 | Tell me what next?" |
45537 | That is singular, is it not? |
45537 | That ought to comfort the friends, ought it not? |
45537 | The desolation of a soul that had no heaven to look to, touched her strangely just then:"Bud, you are going there to hear the music, are you not?" |
45537 | Then Alice:"Mamma, are not such things a sort of cruel kindness? |
45537 | Then a younger voice:"Miss Claire, you will drill me on my recitation, wo n''t you? |
45537 | Then one of them gasped out:"Us girls?" |
45537 | There was a moment''s silence, then Mary Burton asked:"Do you really suppose there is no difference between us and others? |
45537 | They do not stand outside of political questions where they have a settled opinion; why do they in this?" |
45537 | This little favor that I am about to ask, will you promise to grant?" |
45537 | This was his next timidly- put question:"Did you ever go there, Miss Ansted?" |
45537 | Too late for what? |
45537 | WELL, surely there was a chance to teach music to private pupils? |
45537 | WHY? |
45537 | WHY? |
45537 | Was ever such an embarrassing question thrust at him? |
45537 | Was it all a mistake? |
45537 | Was it as emphatic a refusal as poor Louis understood it? |
45537 | Was it the same church at all? |
45537 | Was it well for her to sit down weeping, and dumb, because he had entered the palace a little in advance? |
45537 | Was n''t it too bad? |
45537 | Was she vain of her voice? |
45537 | Was that a compliment, girls, or an insult? |
45537 | Was there any harm in her realizing it? |
45537 | Was there ever a man under such a direct fire of personal questions hard to answer? |
45537 | Was there ever a more bewildered young lady than this one who sat on the carriage stool? |
45537 | Was there something that she might say, and ought to say? |
45537 | Was this an opportunity? |
45537 | We have a good deal of snow for this region, have we not? |
45537 | Well, do you know there is something you might do to help him?" |
45537 | Well, in that case, what would he think of the music of the angels? |
45537 | Well, what did he say?" |
45537 | Well, what then? |
45537 | Were you ever in Boston?" |
45537 | What business was there in this direction which could require so much attention? |
45537 | What can I do?" |
45537 | What can you fancy it possible for me to do for him?" |
45537 | What could I say to your mother that she does not already know? |
45537 | What could have so completely turned his foolish brain? |
45537 | What could she ask that would not be easy enough, now that the total abstinence pledge was out of the way? |
45537 | What denomination are they?" |
45537 | What did Bud think about as he rubbed? |
45537 | What did Claire Benedict find in him to interest her? |
45537 | What did all this mean? |
45537 | What did she suppose that she, Alice Ansted, could do to help him? |
45537 | What did that mean? |
45537 | What did the fellow mean? |
45537 | What did the verse mean, that he had read so many times, that now it seemed to glow before him on the sun- lighted snow? |
45537 | What did this girl know of the charmed life which she had lived at home, and of the father who had been its centre? |
45537 | What do you say now, girls?" |
45537 | What do you see that I could do, if I were what you mean by being a Christian?" |
45537 | What do you suppose is the matter with me? |
45537 | What do you want me to do, give you a receipt? |
45537 | What do you want me to do?" |
45537 | What do you want?" |
45537 | What does this mean?" |
45537 | What else?" |
45537 | What excuse could she give? |
45537 | What had become of the strong, bright, willing spirit with which she had been wo nt to take hold of life? |
45537 | What had happened to the man? |
45537 | What has become of the Ansted pride, when I can say it to almost a stranger?" |
45537 | What if he turned in despair, and plunged into excesses such as he had not known before? |
45537 | What if they failed? |
45537 | What in the world is she doing here?" |
45537 | What in the world was that minister to say? |
45537 | What is it to be a Christian, Miss Benedict?" |
45537 | What is that you are sitting on? |
45537 | What is the immediate cause?" |
45537 | What is the use of trying to live pain over again on paper? |
45537 | What is there that you want me to do?" |
45537 | What is wounded, my pride?" |
45537 | What more can you imagine he wants?" |
45537 | What on earth is there that I could do for a great, ignorant, blundering clod like Bud? |
45537 | What on earth is there that I could do, even if I wanted to do anything in that direction, which I do n''t?" |
45537 | What ought the Fiji to do?" |
45537 | What possible excuse could be offered for such a state of things? |
45537 | What shall I do?" |
45537 | What then? |
45537 | What was it? |
45537 | What was she to say to him? |
45537 | What was the burden of the sermon? |
45537 | What was the old church to him now that he had entered into the church triumphant? |
45537 | What was there that she could accomplish here and now? |
45537 | What was there that she could say to him? |
45537 | What was to be done? |
45537 | What would mamma think to see me on the dark street alone?" |
45537 | What, for instance, am I to say to ideas like these? |
45537 | What, in your estimation, ought the half- awakened Fiji resident to do?" |
45537 | What_ could_ it mean? |
45537 | When he could speak again he said:"My dear boy, have you told your mother?" |
45537 | When was her opportunity? |
45537 | Where do you think we found them? |
45537 | Where would be the church of Christ without its living, working members? |
45537 | Who but the Maker of human hearts could have planned Bud''s education in this way? |
45537 | Who had said that the seats were ever to be cushioned? |
45537 | Why am I wanted, Mr. Chessney? |
45537 | Why are not you one?" |
45537 | Why could she not have known that her music- scholar was to disappoint her, and so had the benefit of a ride? |
45537 | Why did n''t you come to the committee meeting, Dora?" |
45537 | Why did not his mother win him, or his sister? |
45537 | Why did not she? |
45537 | Why did respectable people permit such a disgrace? |
45537 | Why do I not want to look this thing in the face? |
45537 | Why do n''t you have it tuned? |
45537 | Why do you ask me all these questions, Alice? |
45537 | Why do you ask?" |
45537 | Why do you care, Bud, where it is?" |
45537 | Why do you suppose we had to be interrupted in our plans, and almost stand still and do nothing, while you lay on a couch with a sprained ankle? |
45537 | Why does it interest you in the least? |
45537 | Why have n''t they a duty concerning it, rather than a stranger in their midst?" |
45537 | Why not enter it at once, instead of waiting in idleness and suspense through the winter for something better? |
45537 | Why should not other families in South Plains beat eggs in comfort? |
45537 | Why should those giving satisfaction, and needing the money, be discharged, to make room for her who needed it no less? |
45537 | Why, Miss Benedict, is it possible that you have not discovered that they belong to a higher sphere? |
45537 | Why, Uncle Harold, how could you? |
45537 | Why, do n''t you know you are the same as saying that the Lord Jesus Christ has not told the truth? |
45537 | Will you let me ask you a few plain questions? |
45537 | Will you tell me about it? |
45537 | Will you try?" |
45537 | Will you?" |
45537 | Wo n''t you be frank about the matter, Mr. Ansted? |
45537 | Would Claire Benedict have been likely to have marked that particular verse for him? |
45537 | Would he give her his name? |
45537 | Would it be of any use to call through this rising wind for assistance? |
45537 | Would it do to let the young fellow know that she knew it was? |
45537 | Would not simple truth serve her purpose in this case? |
45537 | Would she, on the next bright day, take the blue car line and ride up there and talk with him? |
45537 | Would you help in a perplexity that seems to me to be growing into a downright danger, and which I more than half suspect you could avert?" |
45537 | Would you marry a man who was not a Christian?" |
45537 | Would you think that they had told the truth or a made- up story?" |
45537 | Yes, but how bring it to pass? |
45537 | Yet how many times in your life have you personally known of them-- families who are millionnaires to- day, and beggars to- morrow? |
45537 | You can not mean that?" |
45537 | You do n''t expect me, I hope, to describe that interview? |
45537 | You do n''t think of renewing it, I hope? |
45537 | You have been up there, have n''t you? |
45537 | _ Would_ those girls ever know what a cross it had been to her, Claire Benedict, to come to South Plains and teach them music? |
45537 | and do you imagine, I wonder, what it is to_ me_, when I have humbled myself to tell it all to you?" |
45537 | and in any case, how could she materially help your brother? |
45537 | and is Bud the converted heathen?" |
45537 | and is South Plains Fiji? |
45537 | and what did he propose to say next? |
45537 | and what is the object of the journey, I wonder?" |
45537 | and why are the girls here?" |
45537 | but how can I help it?" |
45537 | do n''t you think our very next thing, or, at least, one of the next, ought to be a furnace? |
45537 | have you never heard the minister urge you to give yourself to Jesus?" |
45537 | or can I hope to have you to myself for five minutes?" |
45537 | or must you make haste up the hill?" |
45537 | or were they led along step by step?" |
45537 | repeated Ruth, great dismay in her voice,"us?" |
45537 | said a familiar voice,"what''s the matter? |
45537 | she asked as though a new thought came to her with the union of the two names,"and are you going to the Rocky Mountains?" |
45537 | she asked,"or only a sort of twist? |
45537 | she wondered, and was this her special opportunity? |
45537 | the old brick rookery on the corner? |
45537 | was not heaven before her, and an eternity there, with her father who had just preceded the family by a few days? |
45537 | was she not the child of a King? |
