Among the lines in the excerpt, these four lines best shows that Mr. White and Herbert doubt Seargent-major's story:

<span>1.) "Sounds like the 'Arabian Nights,'” said Mrs. White, as she rose and began to set the supper. "<em>Don't you think you might wish for four pairs of hands for me</em>."
</span>
2.) "If the tale about the monkey's paw is not more truthful than those he has been telling us," said Herbert, as the door closed behind their guest, just in time to catch the last train, "<em>we shan't make much out of it.</em>"

<span>3.) "Likely," said Herbert, with pretended horror. "Why, we're going to be rich, and famous and happy. <em>Wish to be an emperor, father, to begin with; then you can't be henpecked</em>."

</span><span>4.) Mr. White took the paw from his pocket and <em>eyed it dubiously</em>. "I don't know what to wish for, and that's a fact," he said, slowly. "It seems to me I've got all I want."

Other lines, not included above, were said by </span>Seargent-major so that's out of the choices.
