As most shot-gun shooting is what is called snap shooting, there isn't much time at best, but a good shot will be sure that he has covered his game before he fires, while a beginner will trust to luck. This will be the hardest fault to correct.
Her brother ate his meal in silence, and going to his room afterwards discovered every pair of boots he possessed, headed by the tall sea-boots, standing in a nicely graduated line by the wall, and all shining their hardest. For two days did Mr.
She regarded the dreaded evil as an inevitable thing. But though she was at first overwhelmed with sorrow, and for some days evidently pined under it sadly, hope at length would come back to her little heart; and no sooner in again, hope began to smooth the roughest, and soften the hardest, and touch the dark spots with light, in Ellen's future.
It was Frank who spoke, and the occasion was the Monday morning following their final week with Williams & Mann. "Yes; but it doesn't suit me in the least," returned Richard. "To be idle is the hardest work I can do. Have you anything in view?" "Not a thing. I put in twelve applications last week to as many different houses, but as yet I haven't heard from a single one."
A good deal of heat was obtained by making large wicks of canvass, and placing them in vessels that contained oil; though it was very far from sufficing to keep life in the men during the hardest of the weather.

Over the hardest stone, as over the softest turf, the green moss will force its verdure and sustain its life! Richard II. It was the evening before the trial.

"Shall we try, Clélie?" said Susan.
March lingered upon the last sad circumstance of the tragedy in which the wounded boy dragged himself home, to suffer the suspicion and neglect of his guardian till death attested his good faith beyond cavil. He said this was the hardest thing to bear in all his story, and that he would like to have a look into the soul of the dull, unkind wretch who had so misread his charge.
There followed a period of "negative eugenics" which must have been an appalling sacrifice.

When I got this far in my reading I went to Somel for more light.
