Even a woman usually steady-handed would find her hand tremble if she were conscious of guilt, even a woman high-hearted with her sense of her own worthiness might glance aside at some one in a great crowd of people about her, might let her thoughts wander. "That is where the miracle would come in.

When Alick had gone successfully through this test of steady-handed manliness, it was the turn of old Kester, at his right hand and so on, till every man had drunk his initiatory pint under the stimulus of the chorus. Tom Saft the rogue took care to spill a little by accident; but Mrs.

The houses and gardens planned for babies had in them nothing to hurt no stairs, no corners, no small loose objects to swallow, no fire just a babies' paradise. They were taught, as rapidly as feasible, to use and control their own bodies, and never did I see such sure-footed, steady-handed, clear-headed little things.
