I should have to travel ten years to sit down contented among these fortifications. Of course I can read of this rich kind of English country with pleasure in poetry. But it seems to me to require poetry. What would you say of human beings requiring it?" "That they are not so companionable but that the haze of distance improves the view." "Then you do know that you are the wisest?"
The sugar cane, looking and feeling like a thick bamboo walking-stick, does not suggest itself as an object from which juice could be extracted, but it pours out in streams as soon as the stalk comes between the rollers of the mill. A lemon was squeezed into the bowl of juice, which we were told greatly improves its flavour, and then we had a most refreshing drink.
They must begin with some quickness of sight and hand, and exercise improves them. If you want any farther explanation," continued he, smiling, "they are paid for it. That is the key to a great deal of capacity. The public pays and must be served well." The varieties of handwriting were farther talked of, and the usual observations made.
Practice may make perfect, but it also may make imperfect. All that practice can do is to make more sure and automatic the activity, whatever it is. It cannot alone make for improvement. A child becomes more and more proficient in bad writing or posture, in incorrect work in arithmetic and spelling, with practice just as truly as under other conditions he improves in the same activities.
"And what were you queen of?" asked her father, who was plainly under the impression that his children were jesting. "Of Refuge Islands, daddy," said Pina; "pass the toast, Otto, I think I never was so hungry. Coming home obviously improves one's appetite." "You forget the open boat, Pina." "Ah, true," returned Pauline, "I did for a moment forget that. Yes, we were fearfully hungry that time."
It awakens nervous stimuli and nervous transmissions to normal in all sluggish nerve functions. If for these reasons the heart acts more perfectly, and the nutrition of the heart muscle improves, it acts as a cardiac tonic. Many times, by improving the action of the heart, and also by the action of the drug on the vasomotor center, the pressure in the peripheral circulation may be increased.
Marl improves the physical condition of stiff soils only when used in large amount per acre, and this is true of any carbonate form, such as limestone. Little effect upon physical condition should be expected from the light application usually given when marl is purchased and transported some distance to the farm.
The Great Teacher has said, in a well-known passage, "It is more blessed to give than to receive." What, then, must not have been the blessedness of this pious couple in thus caring for a poor broken-down invalid and his family, whom Providence had guided to their hospitable home? May God reward them richly for their kindness. Organizes a Church at DeLand. Health Improves. Relapses. Starts Home.
The West improves on acquaintance, like the people." "Meaning?" she said, with a defiant mockery so plain in her eyes that Duncan drew a deep breath. "Meaning that you ought to begin to like us the people," he said. "Perhaps I do like some of the people," she laughed. "For instance," he said, his face reddening a little. She looked at him with a taunting smile.
The =Porch= and =Parvise= beneath the middle arch was inserted, as has been previously stated, as a support to the two great piers. This gives a very substantial support to the piers. The whole composition is very fine, and quite worthy of the great portico to which it is an adjunct. It must be left to each spectator to decide for himself if it improves or diminishes the effect of the whole.
