She seated herself expansively, with a gay rustling of many frills, and smiled well pleased upon the arrangements of her table. From these signs it was evident that Mrs. Downey was expecting another boarder, a boarder of whom she had reason to be proud. Rickman noticed with dismay that the stranger's place was laid beside his own.
A rotative engine, or steam-wheel. Here we have three of the vital elements required toward the completion of the work: first, steam used expansively; second, the double-acting engine.
It is true, that, with large power of engine, the vessel may command, so long as her coals last, the advantage of high speed, and her large cylinders will enable her, by working the steam very expansively, to use her fuel with great economy; but there still remains the disadvantage of the increased first cost of the machinery, and its greater weight and bulk, to be permanently carried, whether used or not, and which, by increasing the displacement of the vessel, proportionally diminishes her speed.
The man who drove the vehicle was half-asleep, stupefied, no doubt, by the effect of the hot sun following on a possible "glass" at a public-house, but Helmsley called to him just for company's sake. "Hi! Am I going right for Watchett?" The man opened his drowsing eyes and yawned expansively. "Watchett? Ay! Williton comes fust." "Is it far?"
The Fezandié young men were as much abroad as might be, and yet figured to me largely by the upsetting force of that confidence, all but physically exercised as the finest, handsomest, knowingest creatures; so that when I met them of an afternoon descending the Champs-Elysées with fine long strides and in the costume of the period, for which we can always refer to contemporary numbers of "Punch," the fact that I was for the most part walking sedately either with my mother or my aunt, or even with my sister and her governess, caused the spark of my vision that they were armed for conquest, or at the least for adventure, more expansively to glow.
"Whew!" The Senator dilated expansively and sank again. "Here we are at last! You here, Miss Eleanor? Evening Wayland! Night to you, Calamity! How is the world using you since you stopped tramping over the hills?" Calamity shrank back to the cabin. "I thought this trail hard as a climb to Paradise.
Q. Your explanation has reference to the pumping engine as introduced into Cornwall by Watt: have any modifications been since made upon it? A. In the modern Cornish engines the steam is used very expansively, and a high pressure of steam is employed.
The result of this conference was that Bill McCormack held in his fat, red hands a sheaf of papers which allotted the streets to the four classes and took the decision quite away from him. "I was told to give these papers to the heads of the gangs," said Mr. McCormack, smiling expansively.
Grief or any negative emotion of feeling or condition destructive to health tends to act in this way. People, therefore, should lie down properly. They should lie down, as has been said, sympathetically and expansively long. They should directly manifest courage rather than shrinking, joy rather than sadness, with thankful animation rather than in a despairing state of mind.
And," he added to himself, "I wouldn't go through it again for fifty thousand!" Mr. Anthony T. Hyatt, attorney-at-law, leaned smilingly back in a swivel-chair, matched ten pudgy fingers together and smiled expansively at his clients. There was a great deal of Mr. Hyatt, and much of it lay directly behind his clasped hands.
