If there were innumerable millions of workers and only one saver with money enough to start one factory, the one saver would be able to name his own terms in arranging his wages bill, and the salaries of his managers and clerks.
At the office next morning Sloan found the essay in his pocket and looked around the city-room for D.K.T. The staff poet-clown was no daylight saver; professing to burn the midnight oil in the interest of his employer, he seldom drifted in before half-past nine. "See me. S.S." wrote Sloan, and dropped Willie's manuscript on D.K.T.'s desk.
"Oh, Saver!" exclaimed Fardorougha, who probably heard not a word he said; "I knew I knew I always felt it was before me a dog's death behind a ditch my tongue out wid starvation and hunger, and it was he brought me to it!"
Böcker prove sugar to be a great saver of the phosphates, and hence of bone, which affords, at least, a very plausible reason for the instinctive fondness of children for sweets, during the building portion of their lives. In exhausting labors, long-continued exposure, and to insure wakefulness, the uses of coffee and tea have long been practically recognized by all classes.
Aristotle's principles will then be no more principles to him, than those of Epicurus and the Stoics: let this diversity of opinions be propounded to, and laid before him; he will himself choose, if he be able; if not, he will remain in doubt. "Che non men the saver, dubbiar m' aggrata."
Captain Rose was like a brother to me, introducing me to his family and friends as the saver of his life, and making quite a lion of me in Liverpool. We sailed in company with a large fleet, under convoy of three frigates and two sloops of war, and had been some time at sea when a heavy gale of wind came on one afternoon, which completely dispersed the convoy.

Can you make and shoot a bow and arrow?" "I'll say I can I've belonged to an archery club for five years." "What did I tell you? You're a life saver!
Behold a fourth in much and deep conversation with himself, biting his thumbs at proper junctures, his countenance chequered with business and design; sometimes walking very fast, with his eyes nailed to a paper that he holds in his hands; a great saver of time, somewhat thick of hearing, very short of sight, but more of memory; a man ever in haste, a great hatcher and breeder of business, and excellent at the famous art of whispering nothing; a huge idolator of monosyllables and procrastination, so ready to give his word to everybody that he never keeps it; one that has forgot the common meaning of words, but an admirable retainer of the sound; extremely subject to the looseness, for his occasions are perpetually calling him away.
A duplicate tack bears the same number on the sill of each window and on the upright of each door. This is a real saver of time, for so small a variation as half an inch in width or height can make the difference between doors and windows that really fit and those that leak air. Such proportions vary even with a new house.
"Help me to keep up his head Saver above!" Connor raised his head, but saw at a glance that the last struggle in the old man's heart was over. The miser was no more. Little now remains to be said. The grief for old age, though natural, is never abiding.
