That's a horrible drag to hold a man back the sense that he must always be criticised as one of his own class and that a class with many recognised failings. It makes him self-conscious, and I believe self-consciousness is really at the root of that slight social awkwardness you think you notice in Harry Oswald. A working-man's son need never feel that.
They were large, shapeless, a working-man's hands. The figure of the girl from Iowa walked about the room. With her he went out of the apartment and walked in silence through miles of streets. It was not necessary to say words. He walked with her by a sea, along the crest of a mountain. The night was clear and silent and the stars shone. She also was a star. It was not necessary to say words.
When the working-man's candidate, whose political programme consisted of a general disbelief in all religions, received by ballot! only nine votes from those 500 voters, the Senator declared to himself that the country must be rotten to the core. It was not only that Britons were slaves, but that they "hugged their chains."
'It has paid; not a doubt about it. Whether it's played out or not, I'm not so sure. But Ahalala is a working-man's diggings, not a master's, such as Crinkett is now. Of course Crinkett has a down on Ahalala. 'Your friend Jack Brien didn't seem to think much of the place, said Dick. 'Poor Jack is one of them who never has a stroke of luck.
Muttonwool can see no difference between a proof before letters and the illustrations from the newspapers, which may be seen pasted on the walls of every small shop and working-man's cottage. That there is a taste for pictures here is undeniable. But that is common to every child till it knows how to read, and will want a deal of educating before it can be called 'art.
Such was Kate Evans when she had reached the age of twenty restless, unsatisfied, fretting under the restraints and privations of a poor working-man's home, shrinking from earning her bread by the labour of her hands, yet unable for her heart would not allow her to apply for any school work which might remove her from the home where her services were greatly needed by her now bed-ridden mother.
An English statesman on one occasion, when engaged in canvassing, visited a working-man's house, in the principal room of which a pictorial representation of the Pope faced an illustration of King William, of pious and immortal memory, in the act of crossing the Boyne. The worthy man stared in amazement, and seeing his surprise the voter's wife exclaimed;
In the far distance, cityward, was, here and there, a lone working-man's cottage, the home of some adventurous soul who had planted his bare hut thus far out in order to reap the small but certain advantage which the growth of the city would bring. The land was flat as flat as a table with a waning growth of brown grass left over from the previous year, and stirring faintly in the morning breeze.
"Nothing save to remain here a little longer and be most careful not to appear to have the least knowledge of their identity. I have told you lest we might chance to meet Jack face to face, and you should be taken by surprise if you recognized him." "Is he in disguise, then?" gasped her uncle. "Yes, in a sense. Mr. Talbot has put him into a sort of French working-man's holiday suit.
And as you yourself have taught me that there are no real revolutions except those that formally express what is already a fact, there wants then only the formal expression of the working-man's Force. To this Force you will now give Form." "What an apt pupil!" He stooped and kissed her lips.
