My brother couldn't help them at all. And Rosa " Mr. Carville stood up to go. The cover for Payne's Monthly caught his eye and he nodded approvingly. "That's clever," he said. "I wish sometimes I'd gone in for doing things, like you. As you said, a man's mind rusts, gets seized, if it isn't working.
The tutor breakfasts on coffee made of beans, edulcerated with milk watered to the verge of transparency; his mutton is tough and elastic, up to the moment when it becomes tired out and tasteless; his coal is a sullen, sulphurous anthracite, which rusts into ashes, rather than burns, in the shallow grate; his flimsy broadcloth is too thin for winter and too thick for summer.
He is a calendar of ten years, and marriage rusts him. Afterwards he maintains himself an implement of household, by carving and ushering. For all this, he is judicial only in tailors and barbers; but his opinion is ever ready, and ever idle.
See if you can talk your sons into wiping the water off that engine before it rusts away, and when I get back I'll see what I can do about getting it into running condition." Edipon's good mood remained and Jason took advantage of it by extracting as many concessions as possible.
It seems that when a boiler is under water and not exposed to the air it rusts very slowly; also, the rust is like a soft film it doesn't pit and scale off in great flakes. And a couple of years under water will not do any appreciable damage to the Valkyrie's boilers. The Chinook is running yet, notwithstanding the fact that fifteen years ago she was submerged for a year." "Huh!" Cappy grunted.
From this water they must be wrung out very dry, and hung out, always out of doors if possible. A wringer is much better than wringing by hand, as the latter is more unequal, and also often twists off buttons. The lines must be perfectly clean. A galvanized-iron wire is best of all; as it never rusts, and needs only to be wiped off each week.
"How is he getting on?" said Jennie. "To tell the truth, Jennie, I don't know," I replied. "I don't see that he gets on at all. He seems to be just where he was." Jennie drew a long sigh. "Patience, Jennie, patience," said I, "time works wonders." "No, John," said Jennie, "time never works. It eats, and undermines, and rots, and rusts, and destroys. But it never works.
If I get wet, my straw stuffing will be ruined, and if you two tin gentlemen get wet, you may perhaps rust again, and become useless. But even that is better than to stay here. Once we are free of the barrier, we have Woot the Wanderer to help us, and he can oil your joints and restuff my body, if it becomes necessary, for the boy is made of meat, which neither rusts nor gets soggy or moldy."
"You will have to have better evidence than that," sneered Professor Grimm. "I think I will have," announced Jack quietly. "Of course those marks might have been made by any sharp, rusty object. Now the bell metal rusts scarcely at all, but the iron clapper of a bell does. The rust from that runs down inside a bell, and gets on the edges.
And Jennie's answer was mine to him. "Time never works Mr. Gear. It eats, and undermines, and rots, and rusts, and destroys. But it never works. It only gives us an opportunity to work." And so I came away. Wanted A Pastor. WE are in a sorry condition here at Wheathedge. The prospects are, that it will be worse before it is better.
