A hard-working man may grow strong and maintain vigorous health on most of them, even if deprived of animal food.

When a man feels too warm and throws off his coat, he removes one of the badly conducting layers of air, and increases the heat loss by radiation and conduction.

However complicated the structure of nerve tissue in man seems to be, it is found to consist of only two different elements, nerve cells and nerve fibers.

Love is sparingly soluble in the words of men; therefore they speak much of it; but one syllable of woman's speech can dissolve more of it than a man's heart can hold.

A woman, (of the right kind,) reading after a man, follows him as Ruth followed the reapers of Boaz, and her gleanings are often the finest of the wheat.

For the slaveholders of Carolina had no scruples against enslaving Indians any more than Africans, until it was discovered that the untamable nature of the red man made him an unprofitable and a dangerous servant.

Do you think any woman could help loving a man who had done what you did for her?" "Oh, I expect she has forgotten all about me long ago," I said with a sudden bitterness.

"Where to, sir?" inquired the man.

" The man started the engine and, climbing back into his seat, set off with a jerk up the slope.

I therefore returned to the taxi and, arranging my parcels on the front seat, instructed the man to drive me down to the address that McMurtrie had given me.

He was the man we had passed in Edith Terrace, lighting a cigarette under the street lampthe man who had reminded me of one of the prison warders.

I could discern no sign of him, but all the same, when the taxi came up, I took the precaution of directing the man in a fairly audible voice to drive me to the Pavilion, in Piccadilly Circus.

" "The man who was with Marks when you arrived," I said.

He sank down into the red-velvet stocks, and twirled his remaining basket, and swung his shabby little feet, as idle and unconcerned as if he were some rich man's son, waiting for the train to take him home.

How close the parallel is between the man who, having spent on each day's living the whole of each day's income, finds himself helpless in an emergency of sickness whose expenses he has no money to meet, and the man who, having no intellectual resources, no self-reliant habit of occupation, finds himself shut up in the house idle and wretched for a rainy day.

And truely I am so confirmed in this opinion, that when I bethinke me of the verie notablest and moste wonderful propheticall or poeticall vision that euer I read, or hearde, meseemeth the proportion is so vnequall, that there hardly appeareth anye semblaunce of comparison: no more in a manner (specially for poets) than doth betweene the incomprehensible wisedome of God and the sensible wit of man.

A man cool and temperate in his passions, not easily betrayed by his choler:that vies not oath with oath, nor heat with heat, but replies calmly to an angry man, and is too hard for him too:that can come fairly off from captains' companies, and neither drink nor quarrel.

One that is easy to like any thing of another man's, and thinks all he knows not of him better than that he knows.
