Then he realized that the referee was holding Young Denny's right hand aloft; that Hogarty, with arms about him, was holding the boy erect. The little mail-carrier heard the ex-lightweight's words, as he edged in beside Morehouse, against the ropes. "A world-beater," he was screaming above the tumult. "I'll make a world-beater of you in a year!"
"If the fellow who wrote this can write stuff as warm, comforting and appetizing on chocolates as he can about coldness, courage and cramps on that trip to Mountain City, he'll make a world-beater in the advertising line! He's a whirlwind no a cyclone when it comes to throwing the guff." The interview told of the great man's magnanimity and generosity.
The fact that Andrew Carnegie is a Scotsman has, so far as I know, never been refuted nor denied. Scotland is a wonderful country in which to slip the human product. Then when this product is transplanted to a more sunshiny soil we sometimes get a world-beater. Scotland is a good country to be born in; and it is a good country to get out of; and at times it may be a good country to go back to.
"I suppose," said Ravenslee thoughtfully, "I suppose Joe was one of the best all-round fighting men that ever climbed into a ring?" "Ah that 'e were! Joe were better 'n the best only don't let 'im 'ear me say so, 'e 'd be that puffed up Lord! But nobody could beat Joe black, yaller or white; they all tried danged 'ard, but Joe were a world-beater y' see, I trained Joe!
That rake on tens-up them days would have took care of a fam'ly. But he keeps Jack herdin' him all the time. Otherwise, not bein' watched, an' crazy that a-way, he's liable to come stampedin' over to the Red Light, or some'ers else, any time, an' skeer us up some. "'He's a world-beater, says Jack one day, when he comes over for a drink. 'He's shorely four kings an' an ace.
"'Patient still unconscious. Consultation necessary at once to save life. Should he die advise Reddy what disposition to make of body. Mac." The last cryptogram proved the more easily decipherable, and when the young operative had read it aloud, he looked up with a glowing face. "By George, it's a world-beater! What put you on the right track?" "The last one.
He hired her on purpose and she worked me for a sucker by feeding me up with big words. She told me I was a wonder, and a world-beater for a gambler, and then well, you know the rest. I went back to New York and they trimmed me right, and if it wasn't for you I'd be broke. No, I'll never forget what you did for me, Mary; and I'll never forget what he did, either!"
He's had what you might call an extra-long childhood that's why he's got that misty look in his eyes." "That fool look," scoffed Hugh Manners. "You think so? I tell you, Manners, he's just waking up, and when he's clear waked up he'll be a world-beater! You saw that doorknob?" "Smashed? Yep. What of it?"

"Like to look at our mine?" rattled on Wunpost affably. "Well, here it is, and she's a world-beater. Take a squint at that rock you won't need no glasses how's that, Mr. Eells, for the pure quill?"
I'm not admitting you're a world-beater, understand or anything like that! You've just succeeded in putting away a man who was as formidable as the best of them, five years ago.
