desires
     Evasion that she never used in behalf of others
     Every woman physician has a double disadvantage
     Feeble sense of humor often failed to seize his intention
     Husband and wife are just two children together
     Intention not to tell him something she wished to tell him
     Kind, without being at any moment unprofitably sympathetic
     Knew when to listen and when not to listen
     Laugh, which had its edge of patronage and conceit
     Long to be consoled and even flattered for having been silly
     New England attractive three months of the year
     Optimistic fatalism
     Professional finality
     Raising children is mighty uncertain business
     Results at war with all the precepts
     Robust inebriety
     She likes to share her sufferings with her friends
     Short cuts through the elaborate and reluctant statements
     Success looks a good deal like failure from the inside
     Talking vapidities
     The rule is to disturb a doctor
     Titter of self-applause
     Tremble at the suggestion of a change for the better
     Village seemed to get afloat at last
     Vouchsafed an explanation to no one
     Willing another woman should forgive her husband
     You must n’t believe too much in doctors
