37309 | Ca n''t you hear how perceptible the difference? |
37309 | If a plaintive air streams in delicious and heart- touching cadences from the strings, what soul is there so dead to feeling as not to respond? |
37309 | Now what is the reason of this mode of working? |
37309 | WHY ARE CERTAIN VIOLINS OF MORE VALUE THAN OTHERS? |
37309 | What effect can not be produced by the Violin,( except that of speech,) which the voice can accomplish? |
37309 | What then is real power? |
37309 | What then shall we do? |
37309 | Who has not heard of this now celebrated Italian city? |
37309 | Why therefore did the elder Amati, contemporary and probably pupil of Gaspar di Salo, change the model and size of the instrument? |
36147 | And why is it they infest this particular branch of business more than any other? |
36147 | And why? |
36147 | Are we not bound to consider them as our fellow brethren and to care for them as well as for those receiving premiums? |
36147 | But suppose the awards were made with proper knowledge and strictest impartiality, what then? |
36147 | But what was the result? |
36147 | But when Gemünder told him they were new ones made by him, the amateur stared at him as much as to say,"Do you make fun of me? |
36147 | Disappointed in his effort to find employment, winter at the door and far away from home, what could he do? |
36147 | He then remarked that he wished to find an Italian violin of first class, and asked Gemünder if he had something of that kind in his possession? |
36147 | I have often shown this art in exceptional repairs; but what can be gained by it? |
36147 | Is this fair on the part of human society? |
36147 | Thus a moral prize values higher than a piece of metal? |
36147 | Upon expressing my surprise, he replied with the following insult:"What do you know about the position of the sounding post? |
36147 | What have the remaining competitors gained who are less gifted by nature, and therefore could not receive any award? |
36147 | What is the reason of this and where is it to be found, and why does good luck generally lie in the opposite extreme? |
36147 | Wherein, therefore, do we find that which frightens the purchasers? |
36147 | Whereupon Poznanski replied in an excited tone,"Have you not heard that we do not want a new violin?" |
36147 | Why is it we hear no such conflicting opinions about the productions of any other branch of industry or art? |
28252 | 1, what is there about it? |
28252 | 3, as_ it_ burns; and do not say,"You invariably have nothing but praise for your best things, how is that?" |
28252 | And again,"this is a grand''copy''of so- and- so,"when_ example_ of such is meant; how can an example of, say"Mayson"be a"copy"of him? |
28252 | And do you now wonder that I so insist on every test possible being brought to bear in this important matter of selection? |
28252 | But before I go farther into this interesting, consequently absorbing process, I must answer some question such as"but why use sandpaper? |
28252 | But to_ what_ oil varnish is not my present purpose; why should I seek to close the door on research and on experiment? |
28252 | But what then? |
28252 | But who says the ancients did not use it, or crocodile skin, or a cloth made in Venice, and somewhat after our emery cloth? |
28252 | Does nature do this to the lungs of a Madame Patti or a Sims Reeves before she turns them on the world? |
28252 | Exactly, a question of degree, as purity of air is, but who chooses the foul when he can live in the pure? |
28252 | For example or examples, suppose I found, crowning the severe, almost rigid column of the soundhole of Del Jesu, the mobile bend of Stradivari? |
28252 | I think so: and am sure the whole world would to- day be only too glad if the old masters had been silly(?) |
28252 | Is such flabby nonsense as_ this_ to be put into an immortal violin, because it purports to be fine Swiss pine at tenpence? |
28252 | Then you must get this choice wood, but how? |
28252 | What does it matter to me if only a few or but one of these faults be apparent? |
28252 | What is the origin of this violin or fiddle, and to what country does the honour belong? |
28252 | What of that sonority which could fill a mighty hall where we find five thousand listeners? |
28252 | Which of you would hesitate one moment in his choice between these three bellies_ now_? |
28252 | Will it not be utterly impossible under this system to pass off anything spurious? |
28252 | With what result? |
28252 | or variously shaped files of different cuttings? |
28252 | or, at the turn of the companion lines of Stradivari, the Gothic arch of Del Jesu? |
28252 | with the base of each of a like nature-- do you think I should pass such without a severe growl of condemnation? |
26878 | But how about the post, sir? |
26878 | But how,rejoins the owner,"are you going to put studs along the joint inside without opening the instrument?" |
26878 | Can you not do the repair without? |
26878 | Does it require the''lining''--I think that is what it was called? |
26878 | Good, madam? 26878 How about that wormhole, James, that we were worrying over before the separation of the upper table?" |
26878 | I hope the treatment has not ruined the instrument, can it be restored, will it be of much value? |
26878 | Now, James, what do you propose doing? 26878 Shall I trace the other side, sir, and mark it down on the fresh wood so as to make it balance?" |
26878 | That will require careful work, James, think you can do it sufficiently neat and make the new wood match well? |
26878 | Then why did you bring it to me,says the chief,"if it is impossible for me to remedy the breakage? |
26878 | Well, what method would you propose for correcting all this and making a good restoration of it, James? 26878 Why, its back is not broken; where is the fracture?" |
26878 | --"Don''t you see, all the way down, it is quite loose and open?" |
26878 | ----?" |
26878 | Have you got everything ready for placing the bar?" |
26878 | Have you got the groove cleanly cut and routed out?" |
26878 | He asked me why I wanted"to do this all at once, instead of a part at a time? |
26878 | How did you manage that? |
26878 | I asked him how he had managed the rectification of the matter; did he take the upper table off? |
26878 | Is it of nice straight grain and from the stock of that old Italian?" |
26878 | The joint of the back too, and if there remained any evidence of system in working different to what we moderns would do? |
26878 | The owner at once asks,"Is the back in a very bad state?" |
26878 | There was another word underneath which I think was alum, that''s English, is n''t it?" |
26878 | What is to be done? |
26878 | Will it have to be taken all to pieces? |
26878 | he calls out,"just look at this; is it past our mending?" |
26878 | making a clean sweep of the ragged parts with the knife or letting in angular portions in the German manner?" |
26878 | said the owner, and you say there was no necessity to take the front off? |
21982 | ''Has age much to do with it, think you?'' 21982 ''Mein Gott!--if I do n''t, who de teifil does?'' |
21982 | I would ask how comes it that the bow was unknown to the Greeks and the Romans? 21982 Is that the Stradivari?" |
21982 | Well, gentlemen, shall I say one hundred and fifty guineas? |
21982 | ''And what will you do for the nation?'' |
21982 | ''Difficult do you call it, sir?'' |
21982 | ''Well, then, just at that very moment did you not-- with your jaws extended wide enough to swallow a sixpenny loaf-- yawn?'' |
21982 | ''What do you do now?'' |
21982 | ''What were you doing during the time of the tyrant?'' |
21982 | ''_ Ah, my poor Mr. Reade, the Bass of Spain was all but lost!_''"Was not this a true connoisseur-- a genuine enthusiast? |
21982 | And were not those countries better known to the ancients than to the modern until within the last three hundred years? |
21982 | Chanot rubbed his eyes, and asked himself was he dreaming? |
21982 | Cooke?" |
21982 | Did not Alexander the Great conquer India and Persia? |
21982 | Do Fiddlers always, or most generally, stand or sit according to the points of the compass?" |
21982 | Dr. Grey asks,"Why the north- east side? |
21982 | How do you like him? |
21982 | How does he play?... |
21982 | How is this"Joseph,"unaccustomed to elbow his legitimate namesakes in the world of Fiddles, to maintain the character he has assumed? |
21982 | Is he about anything in the way of composition? |
21982 | Is it possible we can help talking of Haydn first? |
21982 | Is that true? |
21982 | It may be asked, then, if not from Stradivari, from whom did Guarneri receive instruction? |
21982 | Often is the question asked, What can there be in a simple Violin to attract so much notice? |
21982 | Schnapps?'' |
21982 | Shall I say one hundred guineas?" |
21982 | Upon turning to other makers, what will be the result if we judge them by the criterion above mentioned? |
21982 | Vat you sall gif for him?'' |
21982 | What does he do? |
21982 | What does he play upon? |
21982 | What does he say? |
21982 | What fury Doth you to these dire actions hurry? |
21982 | What is it that causes men to treat this instrument as no other, to view it as an art picture, to dilate upon its form, colour, and date? |
21982 | What is the result of a careful investigation of every particle of evidence that we can glean? |
21982 | What was to be done? |
21982 | What''s o''clock?" |
21982 | Where were they to be found? |
21982 | While Beneke gave our names to the sergeant, I anxiously asked one of the soldiers who stood round the carriage,''Is the trunk still secured?'' |
21982 | Who but an artist acquainted with the best work of Italy in Violin- making could have made those exquisite Violins known as"Elector Stainers"? |
21982 | Who can say what old associations these Cremona gems brought to his memory? |
21982 | Who has not got a friend who is the fortunate owner of a veritable"Duke"? |

21982 | Would he not in these days of microscopic biography have furnished work for the genealogist, and been made the subject of numberless pictures? |

28221 | A roadster? |
28221 | Ah, but did you not hear de audience? 28221 Ah, vhen I forget myself, yes-- und I fear dat is very often, eh?" |
28221 | All ready, Ephy? |
28221 | And I am to be taught by a real musician? |
28221 | And I, auntie, dear, what shall_ I_ wear? 28221 And after that?" |
28221 | And have you never been back across the water? |
28221 | And how is Aunt Betty? |
28221 | And perhaps some of these days you will have the opportunity-- who knows? |
28221 | And then you would have to wait hours for it to dry, I suppose? |
28221 | And what do you intend doing, if I may ask? |
28221 | And who, please, is the dear old Bishop? |
28221 | And will you call me Aurora? |
28221 | At what time will it be convenient for me to call? |
28221 | Athletics? 28221 Bellvieu, Miss Calvert?" |
28221 | Blank? 28221 Blank?" |
28221 | But vhy did n''t you let us know? |
28221 | But what did you want, Ephy? |
28221 | But what would you do if you had n''t? |
28221 | But you would surely regard his advice as worth something? |
28221 | Can we run into the city in the storm, Sharley, or will it be better to wait till it clears? |
28221 | Care? 28221 Den who shall say she vill not be charmed by vhat she hears? |
28221 | Did n''t I tell you so? |
28221 | Did you ask your aunt about starting on our trip the first of the week? |
28221 | Do you like it, Dorothy? 28221 Do you mean that the engineer has n''t yet got to the seat of the trouble?" |
28221 | Do you mean that, Metty? |
28221 | Do you think blue would be becoming, dear? |
28221 | Do you think so? |
28221 | Do you think, my dears, I did not hear you talking''way into the night? |
28221 | Do you want to go with us? |
28221 | Do you, really? 28221 Eh? |
28221 | First of all, what shall we sing? |
28221 | Gerald, did you provide sleeping quarters for the lady guests? |
28221 | Give a fellow a chance for a kiss, wo n''t you, Dorothy? |
28221 | Has anyone told you that you are to become a chauffeur? |
28221 | Has it-- has it anything to do with Uncle Seth? |
28221 | Herr Deichenberg? 28221 Hold him?" |
28221 | How about the boys? |
28221 | How are you, Aurora? |
28221 | How can it be arranged? |
28221 | How far can you run with one supply? |
28221 | How long have you been in America? |
28221 | Huh? |
28221 | I am? 28221 I know, Herr, but--""Did n''t I say no''buts''? |
28221 | I suppose you have all sorts of pupils, Herr? |
28221 | I trust you rested well? |
28221 | I''ve never thought to ask, but what sort of sleeping quarters are we to have at the camp? |
28221 | I, my dear young lady? 28221 In a little over an hour? |
28221 | In an automobile? 28221 Is that the camp, do you suppose?" |
28221 | Miss Muriel Tross- Kingdon? |
28221 | Not going on a train? |
28221 | Now, I''ve mystified you, have n''t I? |
28221 | Oh, Herr,cried the girl,"you-- you did n''t bring your old Cremona?" |
28221 | Oh, I wonder who it can be? |
28221 | Oh, I--"Are you going to leave me behind? |
28221 | Oh, Jim, wo n''t that be fine? 28221 Oh, are n''t we?" |
28221 | Oh, are they now, my noble philosopher? |
28221 | Oh, auntie, why do you suggest the impossible? |
28221 | Oh, did you, auntie? |
28221 | One o''dem fellers dat sets up in de front seat en turns de steerin''apparatus? |
28221 | Over vhat, please? |
28221 | Say we get some poles and try our luck before we go back, eh, Gerald? |
28221 | Say, do n''t I get in that game? |
28221 | Shall we say ten o''clock, then? |
28221 | So soon? 28221 So this is Len Haley, the boy who was lost in the woods in the dead of night?" |
28221 | Suppose we had run out of gasoline between towns, though? |
28221 | That so? 28221 Then Gerald is coming back, is he?" |
28221 | Then of course you do not know how long we shall be delayed? |
28221 | Then--? |
28221 | They would, Herr? |
28221 | Thought I could n''t catch a fish, did n''t you, Jim Barlow? |
28221 | Und how iss my little lady? |
28221 | Und vhy iss dat? 28221 Very well; will you tell them, and make my excuses? |
28221 | Vhy? 28221 W''at''s dat, Miss Aurory? |
28221 | Well, are you alone? |
28221 | Well, what is it? |
28221 | Well, you got''em just the same, did n''t you? 28221 What are you boys going to do?" |
28221 | What became of the father? |
28221 | What can it be? |
28221 | What did you tell me about getting to town before dark? |
28221 | What do you know about life at a girls''school, Jim? |
28221 | What is it? |
28221 | What is the other wish, Dorothy? |
28221 | What of it? |
28221 | What time was this? |
28221 | What would any sort of a career be without you? 28221 What''s that stretch of water east of us, with all the little islands in it?" |
28221 | What''s wrong? |
28221 | What, a boy, and alone on the mountain at this hour? |
28221 | Whatever has come over you? |
28221 | When do we start? |
28221 | Where are you going to stop? |
28221 | Where are you? |
28221 | Where did Jim come in? |
28221 | Where did you think we were going-- to the village? |
28221 | Who dares talk of Dorothy when she is not present? |
28221 | Who ever heard of such a thing? 28221 Who have you there, Jim Barlow?" |
28221 | Who is this? 28221 Why not call it Camp Calvert?" |
28221 | Why, Herr Deichenberg, you do n''t mean that--? |
28221 | Why, auntie, dear, wherever are we to get an automobile? 28221 Why, is n''t that strange?" |
28221 | Why? |
28221 | Will you promise to be quiet, Dorothy? |
28221 | Wo n''t that be jolly? 28221 Wonder if there''s a village hotel in any part of the original thirteen states, which has n''t a picture of our immortal ancestor?" |
28221 | Would you drive us crazy, Miss Dorothy, that you stay avay all night and make us believe you are lost in the storm? |
28221 | Yes; but if we had? |
28221 | You are both chauffeurs now, I suppose? |
28221 | You boys are not going home? |
28221 | You do n''t know which way he was going at that time? |
28221 | You do n''t mean that you''re coming to live with Aunt Betty and I again, Jim? 28221 You do n''t mind my calling you''Jim,''do you?" |
28221 | You do n''t realize how you''ve grown and broadened, and--"Broadened? 28221 You heard someone cry out in the night, then?" |
28221 | You meant dat you vould like to see it, maybe? |
28221 | You read your music of course? |
28221 | You remember we discussed that last summer just before we went sailing on the houseboat, Dorothy? |
28221 | You see? |
28221 | You von''t believe me, eh? 28221 You vould like to try it, yes, Miss Dorothy?" |
28221 | You will have to serve an apprenticeship, I suppose? |
28221 | You''ve decided to accept, of course? |
28221 | _ Seem_ to be? 28221 ''So this is my old friend, Betty Calvert''s child, is it?'' 28221 A show fer w''at? |
28221 | A show fer? |
28221 | Addressing a middle- aged man who sat on the front steps of the hostelry, smoking a pipe, Gerald said:"How about breakfast for seven?" |
28221 | After holding him up as such a paragon, is it any wonder I should feel as small and insignificant as a mouse?" |
28221 | And are you to play my accompaniments?" |
28221 | And what about the vices I may have acquired?" |
28221 | Another half hour will put us to the gates of Bellvieu, eh, Gerald?" |
28221 | Any relation to Blank, the broker?" |
28221 | As for the money, Herr, is that any reason you should ruin your health?" |
28221 | Besides Jim, Gerald, Aurora, and ourselves, there will be no one but Ephraim, unless you care to invite your old chum, Molly Breckenridge?" |
28221 | But the others exchanged glances, as if to say:"Well, I wonder will she ever get enough?" |
28221 | But what is one night''s loss of sleep, anyway? |
28221 | But, being a guest, why should I not have the guest chamber?" |
28221 | Catch me doing a thing like that? |
28221 | Could this be the great Cremona of which she had heard so much? |
28221 | Dey pay me vell, yes, but vhat iss pay vhen you must labor with dem hour after hour to get an idea t''rough their heads? |
28221 | Did that nice boy, Jim Barlow, return to Baltimore with you?" |
28221 | Did you ever see a more rugged picture of health?" |
28221 | Do n''t you know your mistress?" |
28221 | Do n''t you think, Jim, there will be some way to save her all this worry?" |
28221 | Do you mean to insinuate that otherwise my course at Oak Knowe has been a failure?" |
28221 | Do you remember David Warfield in''The Music Master,''which we saw at the theater a year ago?" |
28221 | Do you t''ink you vill be able to accomplish many of those impossible t''ings?" |
28221 | Does yo''eber hunt de possum-- Climb de ole p''simmon tree? |
28221 | Go ahead, Molly; sing about the rocks and rills, the crags and-- and--""Pills?" |
28221 | Had these city folks come to eat him out of house and home? |
28221 | Hello-- who is this?" |
28221 | How are we to afford all these fine things when our finances are at a low ebb?" |
28221 | How are you?" |
28221 | How could one ever forget?" |
28221 | How could she ever, ever bear to give her up? |
28221 | How did you leave things up the Hudson, and especially at Deerhurst?" |
28221 | How would you like to do that?" |
28221 | I valk pretty straight, yet, eh, Miss Dorothy?" |
28221 | I wish to know if this will be agreeable?" |
28221 | Is dar anyt''ing moah I kin do?" |
28221 | Is n''t he a perfect dear? |
28221 | Is n''t she looking well?" |
28221 | Iss dat not so?" |
28221 | Iss it stingy I am, do you t''ink? |
28221 | Like we did in de good ole times W''en de niggah was n''t free? |
28221 | Me vorried? |
28221 | Millikins- Pillikins is related to Miss Muriel Tross- Kingdon, I suppose?" |
28221 | My dear boy, did n''t you see the big gym at Oak Knowe? |
28221 | No doubt he and Jim will get along better this time-- for, of course, Jim is to be included in our party?" |
28221 | Not changing the subject, but how do I reach my room?" |
28221 | Now, are n''t you?" |
28221 | Now, did n''t you?" |
28221 | Now,''fess up, are n''t you, Herr Deichenberg?" |
28221 | Oh, and was that the secret you had to tell me?" |
28221 | Oh, then you have already found my teacher?" |
28221 | Ronald?" |
28221 | Shall we name it Camp Blank or Camp Calvert?" |
28221 | Shall we try de''Miserere''from''Il Trovatore?'' |
28221 | Surely you''ve heard Molly speak of Len Haley, sir? |
28221 | The only thing worrying me now is that I''m expecting to hear from one of my dearest girl chums, Molly Breckenridge--""Oh, and is she going with us?" |
28221 | The question now is, what are we going to do?" |
28221 | The trolleys do not run that far, so how--?" |
28221 | Then what are those lights, my dear?" |
28221 | This was put partly in the form of a question and the girl responded:"Do you mean, Mr. Ludlow, that you would like to offer me an engagement?" |
28221 | Vhat iss de use of playing de whole affair over in your mind, until you are sick und tired of it? |
28221 | Vhat you t''ink, dat you are not good enough to be taught on a Cremona, eh?" |
28221 | Vhen shall de first lesson be given?" |
28221 | Vhy iss it dat you vait an eternity? |
28221 | Vhy?" |
28221 | Want to read it?" |
28221 | Was it indeed she who made such delightful music, or was she dreaming? |
28221 | We are to be gone several weeks, during which time who can say what glorious adventures we will have? |
28221 | We do n''t have times like this every year, do we Molly, girl?" |
28221 | What has happened in old Baltimore since I''ve been gone? |
28221 | What ship is that?" |
28221 | When do we start, auntie?" |
28221 | When do you begin your apprenticeship?" |
28221 | Where can I see you to- morrow?" |
28221 | Who knows? |
28221 | Why did I ever let you persuade me to become a party to this speed mania, Gerald Blank?" |
28221 | Why do n''t you go?" |
28221 | Why, surely there are other pupils who have more talent and can make a better showing for you than I?" |
28221 | Wo n''t someone please help me? |
28221 | Would he bring his violin? |
28221 | Would it not, Judge Breckenridge?" |
28221 | You are fascinated with it all, yes?" |
28221 | You know his father failed in business, so that he was forced to sell the houseboat, and that Uncle Seth bought it for you? |
28221 | You must have known Molly and I were only joking?" |
28221 | You surely can not afford so expensive a luxury?" |
28221 | You will remember how he encouraged and developed your talent while we were at Deerhurst, arranging with Mr. Wilmot to give you lessons? |
28221 | You''ll tell me about them in good time, wo n''t you, Dorothy?" |
28221 | now you are ready? |
32556 | A boarding house? |
32556 | About me, Alfy, what could you have been saying about me? |
32556 | Ah, is it so soon? 32556 Alfy, are you sure you are not crazy?" |
32556 | All right,replied Alfy,"do you need me to do up the back of your dress?" |
32556 | An amusing anecdote, and I do n''t doubt a real one,said Aunt Betty, laughing with the others,"but is n''t that a wonderful old fountain? |
32556 | And did you get a room there where Ruth is, Jim? |
32556 | And how about our concert to- night? |
32556 | And how is Miss Ruth, to- day? |
32556 | And what did you think of it, Alfy? |
32556 | And what is this key hanging here for? |
32556 | Are we all here? 32556 Are you all here?" |
32556 | Are you going out in front to sit with your aunt and Alfaretta, after you have finished? |
32556 | Are you going to sing to- day? |
32556 | Are you sure, dear, you have looked all over everything you have? |
32556 | But have n''t you seen enough of the library now? |
32556 | But is n''t it too bad that the locket just disappeared when we needed it? 32556 But, Aunt Betty,"asked Alfy,"what are you going to wear?" |
32556 | Ca n''t we all go? |
32556 | Can I go with you? |
32556 | Can I wear that new pink dress, Aunty? |
32556 | Can any one stay here and read anything they want, and as long as they want? |
32556 | Can it take us back, then? |
32556 | Could n''t you have walked a little faster, Ruth? |
32556 | Dear, dear child, do n''t you know how foolish that was to do? 32556 Did Mr. Sterling have anything to do with trying to get you the place, Jim?" |
32556 | Did anyone in the passenger cars get hurt? |
32556 | Did you come to keep us company all the afternoon? |
32556 | Did you have an uneventful trip? |
32556 | Do n''t the people in New York care for gardens, aunty dear? |
32556 | Do n''t you think it would be real nice if we four went for a drive this afternoon? 32556 Do the Republicans sit on the left of the Speaker here, and the Democrats on the right, as in the House?" |
32556 | Do you and Alfy want to be audience again, while I play over my pieces once more? |
32556 | Do you know their names? 32556 Do you know,"he repeated,"that I would like to render such service that you would never wish for any other servitor?" |
32556 | Do you suppose I can get them here? |
32556 | Do you suppose we have struck another train? |
32556 | Do you think it is going to be real serious? |
32556 | Do you want me to play again in New York? |
32556 | Do you want to see the stage? |
32556 | Do you want your black wrap? 32556 Dorothy dear, whatever made you forget?" |
32556 | Dorothy girl, are you still in bed? |
32556 | Dorothy, child, what ails you? |
32556 | Dorothy, little Dorothy, did n''t you know before? 32556 Go home?" |
32556 | Guess what? |
32556 | Guess what? |
32556 | Have n''t you any business friends in New York? |
32556 | Have you no other proof? |
32556 | How do they use it? |
32556 | How many shall we need? |
32556 | How, oh how, can I get it? 32556 Hurt her? |
32556 | I ca n''t understand it, can you? |
32556 | I suppose I ought to know, but who is the Speaker, and what does he do? |
32556 | I wonder,said Aunt Betty, slowly, for she had been thinking,"I wonder if it could be? |
32556 | I''m not scared, I''m sure of that; but do you think the people will like me? |
32556 | In the taxi? 32556 Is any one hurt?" |
32556 | Is it here? |
32556 | Is n''t the floor lovely? 32556 Is that Benjamin Franklin?" |
32556 | Is there anything else that you would like to have pressed, now that I am working? |
32556 | Is there anything you would like to ask me? |
32556 | Is this right? |
32556 | Is this the place? 32556 It can take back two cars, sir,"answered the conductor,"and would you object, sir, if I put some other passengers in here with you?" |
32556 | It certainly is simple, and I will surely be able to play at the reception to- morrow afternoon? |
32556 | Jim, dear, you too feel sad? |
32556 | Jim, do you want to stay here and be my audience while I practice and tell me what you think of my playing? |
32556 | Let me see, little miss, how about the proof I must have? 32556 Ma, can I have the sampler?" |
32556 | Ma, ma,and Alfy ran in the kitchen calling louder as she went:"Where did you put my raincoat? |
32556 | Ma, who did you say? |
32556 | May I have it? |
32556 | May I have the sampler, Alfy? |
32556 | May I quote for you a little gem that is aptly expressive of my sentiments? |
32556 | Mr. Ludlow,asked Dorothy,"where shall I stand?" |
32556 | No it is n''t, is it Jim? |
32556 | Oh dear, Dorothy did n''t I get you the book to read? |
32556 | Oh, Dorothy,Gerald called back,"when shall I return for you?" |
32556 | Oh, ca n''t I stay and talk? |
32556 | Or did you just wish to hear Dorothy play? |
32556 | Or taken the stage to the station if you were so tired? 32556 Shall I get the stamps?" |
32556 | Shall I get your things all out and have everything all ready for you? |
32556 | Shall we get a Capitol guide? |
32556 | Shall we ride? |
32556 | That does n''t excuse my little girl,remarked Aunt Betty, and turning to Dorothy,"What is it we are going to hear, dearest?" |
32556 | That saves us a good deal of trouble and expense, does n''t it? 32556 Then I may go?" |
32556 | Then do I understand that all Dorothy has to do is to prove she is Dorothy Winchester Calvert and she will come into this inheritance? |
32556 | Then, maybe our floor will not be burned at all? |
32556 | Was n''t that a nice idea to put the flag back there? |
32556 | Well, Alfy, all ready to go home? |
32556 | Well, Dorothy girl,said Aunt Betty, turning to her,"what will it be?" |
32556 | Well, Dorothy, child,asked Mr. Ludlow,"is everything all right? |
32556 | Well, ca n''t my little girl wait till then and see what more, for herself? 32556 Well, have you all selected those you wish?" |
32556 | Well, what next, Dorothy girl? |
32556 | Well, young man, what is it this time? |
32556 | What Hannah? 32556 What about the concert? |
32556 | What are we going to do now? 32556 What are we to do now?" |
32556 | What are you going to put in? |
32556 | What are you talking about? 32556 What did Aunt Betty have to say?" |
32556 | What did Mr. Van Zandt say? |
32556 | What did he want, dear? |
32556 | What did you do with it? |
32556 | What did you see? |
32556 | What did you want him for, Jim? |
32556 | What do you think of me? |
32556 | What do you think of the fire? |
32556 | What does it represent? |
32556 | What dress do you want to wear? |
32556 | What is Alfy talking about, Aunt Betty? |
32556 | What is a mace? |
32556 | What is it you want to say? |
32556 | What is it, ma? |
32556 | What is that star set in the floor for? |
32556 | What is this next room? |
32556 | What kind of ice cream would you like, Alfy? |
32556 | What may they be? |
32556 | What may you want? |
32556 | What shall I do with these? 32556 What time is it, I wonder?" |
32556 | What would you like to have? |
32556 | What''s that? 32556 What''s the matter, Alfy?" |
32556 | When is another train due here? |
32556 | Where did all these statues come from? |
32556 | Where did you have it last? |
32556 | Where do you suppose? |
32556 | Where is Dorothy? 32556 Where is it near?" |
32556 | Where is it? |
32556 | Where is it? |
32556 | Where next? |
32556 | Who are all these statues of? |
32556 | Who gave you those beautiful violets you are wearing, that just match your eyes? |
32556 | Who is it, then, that uses that beautifully carved high backed chair on that little platform there? |
32556 | Who uses them? |
32556 | Whose room is this? |
32556 | Why has the locket gone? |
32556 | Why not ask Mr. Ludlow? 32556 Why not?" |
32556 | Why, Alfy, what have you there? |
32556 | Would n''t it be odd if it was his mother who made this sampler? 32556 Would n''t that be rather lonesome, Miss Ruth?" |
32556 | Would n''t you rather have someone else here with you? |
32556 | Yes, and are you to sing? |
32556 | Yes, and did you see this one? |
32556 | Yes, do you want to come out with me? |
32556 | Yes, where? |
32556 | Yes,answered Aunt Betty,"what is it? |
32556 | You are to play to- night, are you not? |
32556 | You will miss me? |
32556 | You will promise me then? 32556 You will?" |
32556 | And I can start to- morrow-- yes? |
32556 | And can I wear the red hair ribbon Ma Babcock bought me from Liza Jane''s?" |
32556 | And is Mr. Dauntrey there?" |
32556 | And so you think that perhaps Mr. Van Zandt will find out all about poor little Lem''s parents just from that sampler that Alfy found in the attic? |
32556 | And was she very poor-- poorer than we?" |
32556 | And what is the name? |
32556 | And why are all the lights out?" |
32556 | And why did the train lurch so? |
32556 | And you are a solo violinist?" |
32556 | And, my-- what was that in the corner? |
32556 | Are we to stay right where we are, conductor?" |
32556 | Aunt Betty carefully read the letter through and turning to Jim, asked,"What are you going to do about it, my boy?" |
32556 | Aunt Betty, where are you?" |
32556 | Ca n''t think of anyone else writing me, can you? |
32556 | Can we have oysters, Aunt Betty?" |
32556 | Come now, tell me what you want us to dress for?" |
32556 | Could n''t you guess?" |
32556 | Could you care, not as much as I do, now, but just a little?" |
32556 | Could you? |
32556 | Dauntrey?" |
32556 | Did I do better than I did this afternoon before I went in to see Mr. Ludlow, and did you notice the difference in the playing of the last piece?" |
32556 | Did n''t Mr. Ludlow tell you?" |
32556 | Did n''t you hear a knock?" |
32556 | Did they all belong to Washington?" |
32556 | Do you know where it is?" |
32556 | Do you like it? |
32556 | Do you remember, Jim? |
32556 | Do you think it could be possible that this sampler was made by his mother? |
32556 | Do you think it is becoming? |
32556 | Do you think so, Aunt Betty?" |
32556 | Do you think, Jim, that traveling will hurt Aunt Betty?" |
32556 | Do you want to talk business with me?" |
32556 | Dorothy dear, will you see if you can find my glasses? |
32556 | Dorothy finished her piece and then came over and kissed her aunt, saying,"Dear Aunt Betty, have you and Alfy enjoyed yourselves?" |
32556 | Dorothy had risen, and coming to him, placed her hands in his and said,"Is this all true or just a joke?" |
32556 | Dorothy liked to have Jim assume authority over her in this manner, and questioned gayly:"Well, Father Jim, what did he want?" |
32556 | Dorothy looked at the large room and the many chairs and said hesitatingly,"Will it be crowded?" |
32556 | Dorothy, greatly surprised, questioned,"You are coming back, Gerald?" |
32556 | Have I you to thank for bringing her to me?" |
32556 | Have n''t we, Jim?" |
32556 | How can Jim tell us while you are talking?" |
32556 | I did n''t keep you waiting very long to- day, did I?" |
32556 | I think the first letter is''W,''not''M,''"and turning to Alfy,"what did Ma Babcock say about the name?" |
32556 | I was going to say-- what was I going to say?" |
32556 | Is it of great value?" |
32556 | Is n''t he a handsome man?" |
32556 | Is n''t it all very beautiful?" |
32556 | Is n''t it wonderful? |
32556 | Is n''t that so?" |
32556 | Is there anything now you want to ask me?" |
32556 | Is there going to be people in all of them?" |
32556 | It''s been more than a year since you have seen me, is n''t it?" |
32556 | Jim answered,"Will you tell Miss Boothington that Miss Dorothy Calvert wishes to see her?" |
32556 | Jim seized her hands and asked hurriedly,"Could you love me? |
32556 | Let me see-- just what day is this?" |
32556 | Ludlow?" |
32556 | Ludlow?" |
32556 | Matthew heard her and came running up, saying:"What''s the matter, sis?" |
32556 | Mr. Ludlow usually attends to Ruth himself; I wonder why he has not thought of her?" |
32556 | Mrs. Calvert then asked,"Did anyone see out of the window when the flash of lightning lit up this car?" |
32556 | Mrs. Calvert, who was facing the window, looked out and gasped,"Oh, why do n''t they stop the train?" |
32556 | Now, Dorothy child, what would you like to play? |
32556 | Now, is n''t this a nice, long, newsy letter? |
32556 | Now? |
32556 | Oh, Jim, what day does the 27th of September fall on?" |
32556 | Oh, dear, oh, dear; do you really suppose that I will be a very great violinist?" |
32556 | Oh, did you look in the closet in the barn? |
32556 | Oh, why is it I never get into any such wonderful adventures?" |
32556 | On reaching a small outer office he asked of a pleasant faced girl sitting there,"Can I see Mr. Van Zandt? |
32556 | On the way out from the library, Dorothy asked,"Mr. Ludlow, are all these pictures and pieces of statuary done by Italians and other foreigners?" |
32556 | Please, please tell me? |
32556 | Ruth and Mr. Dauntrey, where are they?" |
32556 | Ruth questioned,"Is he cross? |
32556 | Ruth started off by saying,"Dorothy, do you believe what this guide is telling us or do you think he is fooling us?" |
32556 | Ruth thought this a pretty spot indeed, and exclaimed,"Oh, just see here, is n''t this a romantic spot? |
32556 | See the carved figures?" |
32556 | She said to Mrs. Calvert:"Aunt Betty, what shall I do? |
32556 | She turned and saw Jim on the veranda outside the window, and crossing the room and lifting up the French sash she said,"What is it, Jim?" |
32556 | So you are the Jim she speaks of in the letter, and says I may question concerning these matters?" |
32556 | The fact was suggestive of further danger, and then Dorothy questioned,"What was the crash? |
32556 | The offer is for work in the-- what department is it?" |
32556 | Then Alfy summoned her lost courage and said as calmly as she could,"Who''s there?" |
32556 | Then Ruth broke the silence by asking,"Where is your violin, Dorothy?" |
32556 | Then quickly changing his tone of voice to a more cheerful one, he continued:"Dear, never mind, we can be the same old friends again, ca n''t we?" |
32556 | Then you will come to me, girl?" |
32556 | Then, Dorothy girl, you will give me my answer?" |
32556 | Was it fire? |
32556 | Was someone being robbed, or murdered, or what? |
32556 | We can have this one secret from everyone else, ca n''t we? |
32556 | What are you to play?" |
32556 | What can I give you to sew? |
32556 | What day is it? |
32556 | What did you find to talk about?" |
32556 | What is it?" |
32556 | What is that brass disk for?" |
32556 | What shall I do, oh, what shall I do?" |
32556 | What shall I do?" |
32556 | What shall I wear?" |
32556 | What time is it, I wonder? |
32556 | When did you come into the room, just now?" |
32556 | When she had finished, she laid down her violin, and came and stood in front of her aunt, questioning:"Do you think I played them well enough? |
32556 | When? |
32556 | Where are you?" |
32556 | Where are you?" |
32556 | Where have you been?" |
32556 | Where is she?" |
32556 | Where is that? |
32556 | Where? |
32556 | Who sent them to you?" |
32556 | Why, Dorothy, what has happened? |
32556 | Will you please now tell me what you would like to have me wear?" |
32556 | Will you see that they are placed in Mr. Van Zandt''s hands safely? |
32556 | Would Alfy be the companion? |
32556 | You are not scared, are you? |
32556 | You do not mind playing there, do you? |
32556 | You here, too? |
32556 | You remember her saying that she was tired of boarding house meals, do you not?" |
32556 | You remember the convent we saw in Jackson Park yesterday, where they had all of those Columbus relics?" |
32556 | You remember them, do n''t you, Dorothy?" |
32556 | You say you think that Mrs. Haley, or Hannah Woodrow, is dead?" |
32556 | You will, will you not?" |
32556 | You will? |
32556 | angrily added Alfy,"why could n''t ma have a dress like that? |
32556 | he questioned,"really miss me?" |
32556 | what have you done?" |
