41524I can go in a few minutes; would you mind asking Florence to come here?
41524I dare say I do n''t remember it very correctly; has she grown much?
41524I do n''t think it is quite long enough, do you?
41524I do n''t think that''s fair, do you, Marion?
41524I do n''t understand you at all; what is this all about?
41524I guess it wo n''t hurt it for just this once, and this is certainly a great occasion,answered Florence;"what are you going to wear on it,--cherry?"
41524I know you_ did n''t_ say put your stitch over,retorted Rose;"you just said put over, and how was I going to know by that?
41524I say, Mab,shouted the first speaker from the bottom of the stairs,"if you''re coming, why do n''t you come?
41524I shall have to take a tumbler myself, but never mind; now are you all ready? 41524 I wish I could tell you of something; do n''t you know of anything for a sore throat, Marion?"
41524I''m so glad,cried Rachel,"but was n''t it a shame that Arthur Thornton should have sent his bouquet to Marion first?"
41524I''m sure I do n''t know; are n''t they lovely?
41524If she can hide her wounds so bravely, can not I do the same?
41524Is n''t it heavy though? 41524 Is she going to be married during school?"
41524Is she pretty?
41524Is she well provided for?
41524It seems to me,she began,"you and Florence are not quite so fond of each other as you used to be; or is it that she is not so fond of you?"
41524It''s a new one, is n''t it?
41524Mab, could n''t you design it yourself?
41524Marion Berkley, do you mean to say that you expect me and Miss Christine to sit down to a supper which you young ladies have secretly prepared?
41524Marion, do you know it is almost midnight? 41524 Marion, how could you?
41524Marion,he almost whispered, as he bent over her,"are you sure you never loved Arthur Thornton?"
41524Marion,said Mrs. Berkley one day,"do n''t you intend to invite Florence and Miss Drayton in here to spend the night?"
41524May I be allowed to come in at this early hour?
41524Might I ask where this champagne came from?
41524Miss Berkley, can you fill a pipe?
41524Mrs. Marston, can you enlighten me?
41524My dear child, are you crazy? 41524 My dear child,"said the doctor, looking down at Marion,"how can I tell until I''ve seen her?
41524No, I do n''t believe it will; besides who cares for that? 41524 No,"answered Marion, rising, and going quickly to the bedside;"it''s Marion; can I do anything for you?"
41524No? 41524 No?
41524No?
41524Not a word? 41524 Not even excepting Miss Florence?"
41524Now is n''t this jolly, Florence? 41524 Now where do you suppose they came from, Marion?
41524Now, Flo, was there ever such a darling mamma as mine? 41524 Now, Julie,"began Marion,"which will you have, sponge or currant?"
41524Now, Miss Marion, did you_ ever_ see sech a boy as that?
41524Now, my dear young lady, will you please open your mouth?
41524O Mab, how did you dare? 41524 O Miss Christine, is n''t it splendid?"
41524O Miss Christine,she cried, in an excited whisper,"is the house on fire?"
41524O Miss Stiefbach, what did you come so soon for? 41524 O doctor,"whispered Marion, who had silently watched every movement,"is it scarlet fever?"
41524O mamma,called out Marion,"wo n''t you please stop on your way back, and get me a cherry ribbon?
41524Of course not,said Marion;"we never thought you would; but please before you go let us drink your health in a glass of champagne?"
41524Of course we will,said Mattie;"you designed your carpet- bag, did n''t you?
41524Of course,replied Marion;"but why do n''t you go down into the laundry, and get Biddy to give you a pair?
41524Oh, is n''t she sly?
41524Oh, is that for me? 41524 Oh, so do I,"replied Marion;"he''s nice enough, but are n''t we going to have_ him_ all summer?
41524Oh, what is it?
41524Please, ma''am,said Flo, in a voice of mock humility,"may I give her some of my French candies?"
41524Rachel Drayton; that''s the one with the great black eyes, is n''t it?
41524Rachel, wo n''t you kiss your Aunt Marion?
41524Rachel,said Dr. Drayton, as he threw away his cigar,"how should you like to go to Europe next spring?"
41524Rachel,said Marion, thoroughly frightened,"do n''t you know me?"
41524S''pose you''re one o''them gals up t''the schule?
41524Sallie, do you know where Miss Christine is?
41524Sarah, how can you get so excited? 41524 She flashes her eyes, does she?"
41524She had it taken just before she went back to school,said Mrs. Berkley,"and I colored it for her; is n''t the frame lovely?
41524So it''s Mr. Thornton who has got ahead of me?
41524So you mean to play, do you?
41524Spectin''one o''the gals?
41524Suppose we should go through the box and not leave any for Jabe; what should you say to that?
41524Tell us all about it, Marion,asked Mattie;"how did you know it?"
41524The free- stone house we noticed for sale the other day?
41524Then Rachel has never taken my place entirely away?
41524Then you do n''t think it''s scarlet fever?
41524Then you do n''t think she''s going to be very sick?
41524Then you intend to practise?
41524Trimmed it yourself!--really? 41524 Two letters and a pamphlet for Miss Stiefbach; one for Miss Christine; and whose is this great, fat one, I wonder, with a foreign stamp?
41524Uncle George brought it to me from Ireland; was n''t it good of him? 41524 Well, Marion, I do n''t know what you will do next,"said Miss Christine;"but where have you really been?"
41524Well, Marion, have n''t you got a letter for me?
41524Well, are n''t you rational, I should like to know?
41524Well, as you are so very kind as to offer, I''ll let you; but when will you do it?
41524Well, ca n''t you give me any idea?
41524Well, do n''t you_ intend_ to say anything?
41524Well, how did you know it, dear; did any one tell you?
41524Well, never mind that,impatiently replied Rachel;"how did Marion look?"
41524Well, suppose she is an heiress, what of that? 41524 What are you two quarrelling about this lovely Sunday morning?"
41524What did he mean?
41524What did you do?
41524What do you mean by broken bridges, doctor?
41524What do you mean by putting''two and two together''?
41524What do you mean?
41524What do you mean?--hit what?
41524What do you think?
41524What in the world did you name him Shadrack for?
41524What in the world do you mean, Georgie Graham? 41524 What in the world is the child talking about?"
41524What in the world makes you call Marion''her highness''?
41524What is the matter with him?
41524What new scholar?
41524What shall I put him into arter I get him tackled?
41524What was that you said, Marion, about''her highness''?
41524What!--not diamonds?
41524What''s the matter with you, child?
41524What, in the name of sense, do you want of a mask?
41524What_ is_ the matter, child? 41524 What_ would_ Miss Stiefbach say,"exclaimed Florence,"if she knew you were going to have a regular Thanksgiving supper?"
41524Where are you going to do it? 41524 Where have you been?"
41524Where in the world is that ribbon? 41524 Who are you going to send to the station?"
41524Who ever heard of Miss Stiefbach''s taking a scholar after the term had begun?
41524Who is it for?
41524Who is it, Biddy? 41524 Who''s we?"
41524Whom are you going to invite?
41524Why are you not at work in the library? 41524 Why did I speak so?"
41524Why did n''t she come?
41524Why is he any more to blame than Fred?
41524Why should I feel such an unaccountable prejudice against a person I never even heard of before? 41524 Why, I could n''t hang round the hall listening to what they said, could I?
41524Why, I look just like him, do n''t I? 41524 Why, M. Béranger, of course,"said Florence;"who else could it be?"
41524Why, Mab, what made you so late? 41524 Why, Marion Berkley, where_ have_ you been?"
41524Why, Marion, have n''t you crimped my hair a_ little_ too much?
41524Why, Sallie, what do you mean?
41524Why, did n''t you know?
41524Why, do n''t you know?
41524Why, put him into the sleigh, to be sure; what''d you s''pose?
41524Why, what is the matter with her, auntie? 41524 Why, you poor child,"laughingly replied her teacher,"what are you doing?
41524Why, you''re not going alone?
41524Why?
41524Will it pop?
41524Will she be any less likely to kick Florence than you?
41524Will she be kind to us little girls?
41524Would n''t it be a joke,said Grace Minton,"if Miss Stiefbach should walk in on us just as you got the cork out?"
41524Yes, I know it was; and that is why I''m particularly anxious to have a good one this time; do n''t you see?
41524Yes, I think he did,replied Marion, smiling in spite of herself; then in a soberer tone she asked,"Do you remember your father, Jabe?"
41524Yes, and how would she have known it, if it had n''t been for you? 41524 Yes, so I think; but do n''t you think it would be nice if we six girls, who have been here four years together, should all work her something?
41524Yes,replied Marion,"I''ve known it all this time, and actually have n''t toadied her yet; are n''t you surprised?"
41524You ben''t?--_not_ one o''the gals; you''re marm, p''raps?
41524You know she ca n''t be going to have a party; but what can it mean?
41524You really mean it, Marion? 41524 _ Do_ you like it?
41524''My dear fellow,''said he,''do n''t you know I have n''t got any money?''
41524--''What name?''
41524An''have n''t I sane the likes o''him too many times not to know him?
41524And who shall say that it was not enough?
41524Berkley too hasteelie?"
41524But do you know it is after four o''clock, and the girls have all got through practising?
41524But how can I get such a person?
41524But how could she expect God would forgive her, when day after day she knowingly committed the same faults?
41524But how did you mistake me for her?
41524But where now were her good resolutions?
41524Ca n''t we do anything for her?
41524Ca n''t_ I_ do anything?"
41524Can it be that you thought I was Rachel Drayton?"
41524Can you tell the writing from here?"
41524Could she be acting?
41524Did n''t she get''taken out''a great deal?"
41524Did you get down the big sleigh t''other day when I told yer to?"
41524Do n''t you think you can convince her of the contrary?"
41524Do tell me what it is that evidently amuses you so much?"
41524Do you ever go to school?"
41524Do you hear?
41524Do you know how you are talking?
41524Do you s''pose I''m goin''to send you home afoot when it''s sich walkin''s this?
41524Do you understand?"
41524Dr. Drayton smiled, as he said,"And you are Miss Marion Berkley, I presume?"
41524Flo is here; is n''t that jolly?
41524God had intended?--no, not that; for what could God intend and not perform?
41524His hands may be scratched and bleeding from contact with the briers; but what of that?
41524How did you dare?"
41524How did you know it?"
41524How do you feel now, dear?"
41524How do you like it, Rachel?
41524How do you like my turn- out?
41524How do you like our school- room?"
41524How much do you put in a tumbler of water, Marion?"
41524I do n''t believe but what you thought we were almost savages; now honestly, did n''t you feel afraid to meet us?"
41524I do n''t think I ever heard of a real bona fide Rachel before; handsome, is n''t she?"
41524I do n''t think there are many women that would do that; do you, Flo?"
41524I do n''t think there is much danger of my going to sleep; but for fear I should, you come up before tea,--won''t you?"
41524I just wish you''d seen her when I tried to make a pretty speech to her; did n''t she toss her head up, and flash those eyes at me?
41524I moved aside that she might more easily speak to Mrs. Benson, and she asked in a weak, tired voice,''Any letters for me, ma''am?''
41524I remember her; very nervous sort of girl, is n''t she?"
41524I thought you seemed worried about something, and came back to see if I could n''t help you; ca n''t I?"
41524I wonder if it occurred to her that the only lesson for the day was French?
41524I''ll hand him over to mamma; but wherever I go, you''ll have to take me, do you understand?"
41524If you had n''t had quick eyes to see into my troubles, and a warm heart to put you up to helpin''me, what would she a''known about it?
41524In a moment she heard a window opened above, and looking up beheld a night- capped head, and the doctor''s voice asked,"What''s the row down there?
41524Is it just the thing?"
41524Is n''t it lovely?
41524It is not jealousy; for how can I be jealous of a person I never saw or heard of before in my life?
41524It will be awful sloppy though, wo n''t it?"
41524It would be useless to say the girls did not enjoy the latter quite as much as the former, for what girl of eighteen ever could resist brass buttons?
41524Jabe Dobbs, be you there?"
41524Just look at it, girls; is n''t it lovely?"
41524Marion, have another chop?"
41524Marion, is n''t that splendid?"
41524Marston?"
41524Miss Christine,"she said, turning round quickly as her teacher entered the room,"who sent you these lovely flowers yesterday?"
41524Mrs. Berkley, will you honor me?"
41524My idea is to make an ottoman: one work the middle, four the corners, and the other fill it up; what do you say?"
41524Neat but not gaudy, is n''t it?"
41524Now what shall we do for plates?"
41524Now, Marion, do tell me; have you decided what you are going to say to- morrow?"
41524Now, Mrs. Berkley, what shall I do?
41524Now, who do you think was the mean one, I should like to know?"
41524O Marion,"she said, as she was about to leave the room,"will you please sleep with Rose?
41524Once she sat up in bed, and, laying her hand on Marion''s arm, said in the most grieved, beseeching tone,"What makes you hate me so?
41524Sarah, you''re such a good forager you wo n''t mind running down the back way, and getting three or four plates, now will you?"
41524See, Marion, is n''t it lovely?"
41524She is pretty sick, but not dangerously so; but how are you, Miss Marion?
41524Sometimes I think I''ll go down there; but where''s the use?
41524Suddenly an idea seemed to flash into her head:"Did you go for the doctor?"
41524Thornton?"
41524Thornton?"
41524Those bottles give quite a regal air to the table, do n''t they?
41524Walking over broken bridges at twelve o''clock at night is n''t a very good thing for red cheeks, is it?"
41524Was n''t Miss Stiefbach invited?"
41524Was n''t little Bob Jones the_ loveliest_ dancer she ever saw?
41524Was there ever any one in such a flutter?"
41524We could n''t eat it half to- night, if we try; so what''s the use of such a spread?
41524What are you laughing at?"
41524What do you think, Marion?"
41524What is the matter?
41524What possessed you to put on those tidies to- day?"
41524What sort of a school did you use to go to?"
41524What you been a- doin''that''s kept yer so long?"
41524Where did you get it?"
41524Where did you get it?"
41524Where does her mother live?"
41524Where is it?"
41524Where is she?"
41524Who could have sent them?"
41524Who held their tongue about Aunt Bettie''s doughnuts, I should like to know?"
41524Who in the world can he be?
41524Who told you to do that?"
41524Whom shall I ask, Flo?"
41524Why wo n''t you let it all come out?"
41524Why, what did I ask you to give up the history for if it was n''t that I might have time for my supper?
41524Why, what in the world do you mean?"
41524Will you be kind enough to bring your brushes into my room?
41524Wo n''t I catch it?"
41524Wo n''t they look well dancing the''deux- temps''together?"
41524Wo n''t we have fun?"
41524Wo n''t you please put something on, and go in and sit with her?
41524You do n''t think it was_ very_ dreadful in him, do you?"
41524You really mean that you will love me?"
41524and did n''t Walter Hargate sing the''rainy day''so as to make one weep_ oceans_ of tears?
41524and then from a second,"O Mr. Stein,_ would_ you play this?"
41524and was n''t Jack Richards''profile''enough to make one_ wild_''?
41524are you here?
41524as she caught sight of Sarah,"is she here yet?"
41524asked Marion;"what do you like best,--spelling?"
41524asked Sarah;"do you think she is going to be ill?"
41524cried Florence;"do n''t you see I''ve got on the ruffled tidies?"
41524cried Sarah Brown;"now that we know there is something going on, do n''t you intend to tell us what it is?"
41524did n''t he send his name?"
41524did you really think I was going to be angry with you after making such a thrilling stump- speech in my favor?"
41524do n''t you mean to tell us, beforehand?"
41524do n''t you see?
41524does it hurt terribly?
41524exclaimed Florence;"what has kept you so long?
41524exclaimed Marion, striving to conceal her laughter,"are n''t you ashamed of yourself?
41524exclaimed Marion;"when and where?"
41524exclaimed Sarah Brown,"do n''t you see I''m dying to know if there''s a letter for me?
41524have I got you at last?"
41524how does that look?"
41524how does that look?"
41524how much would you charge to stand on Boston common nights, and light the city?
41524how''s that?"
41524it is all out now; do you think I am a perfect wretch?"
41524it''s champagne, as sure as I''m a sinner; who would have believed it?
41524not a syllable?
41524of course people would be polite; but was n''t there anybody particularly attentive?
41524said Florence,"do you know just what you are going to say?"
41524she exclaimed,"I began to think you were never coming; do n''t you know I''m dying to hear about the party?"
41524shouted every girl, jumping to her feet in astonishment,--"to whom?"
41524wailed half- a- dozen girls;"are n''t you going to play any more?"
41524what do you think she is going to make me do?
41524what do you think''s up?"
41524what is the meaning of this noise?"
41524what''s the matter with you?"
41524where are you?
41524who would ever suppose she had as much hair as that?
41524you here?"
41524your astonishment at seeing me is greater than your joy?
