Where several bows are packed together, each has a woolen bow case and all are carried in a canvas bag, composition carrying cylinder, or in a wooden bow box. In hunting we prefer the canvas bag, but you must carry it yourself, any one else will break your bows. The bracer, or arm guard, is a cuff of leather worn on the left forearm to prevent the stroke of the bowstring doing damage.
"Why, you look as cold as ice," exclaimed the woman, half- resentfully. "I'm the only one who seems to feel it. I I'm positively delirious. My partners look at me in the strangest way, as if they thought I were liable to become dangerous at any moment." "Not too loud!" her husband cautioned, then to Kirk: "Good-luck, old man. Lord! I need a bracer."
She assured her ladyship that she was making no mistake in marrying Prince Ravorelli, and, if she were, she alone would suffer. "I am so furious with her, Bob, for marrying Prince Ugo that I am not going to the wedding," said Lady Saxondale. "Whew! That's a bracer! But, by the way, my dear, did you introduce any real proof that he is the scoundrel you say he is?
Fink-Nottle in the garden, sir, while you were still in bed, and we had a brief conversation." "And you came away feeling that he needed a bracer?" "Very much so, sir. His attitude struck me as defeatist." I nodded. "I felt the same. 'Defeatist' sums it up to a nicety. Did you tell him his attitude struck you as defeatist?" "Yes, sir." "But it didn't do any good?" "No, sir."
The efficiency of this exercise depends greatly upon the speed of the drawing back of the fists, and the tension of the muscles, and, of course upon the full lungs. This exercise must be tried to be appreciated. It is without equal as a "bracer" as our western friends put it.
Whoosis a Trappist monk under the perpetual vow of silence. The unfolding of the plot he had left to the other characters, with a few ingenious gaps where the two stars could come on and dance. He takes a stiff bracer, ties a vinegar-soaked handkerchief round his forehead, and sets to work to remodel his piece. He is a trifle discouraged, but he perseveres.
The Englishman moistened his lips nervously, as if they suddenly felt dry. "Uncle Alaric was a heavy, full-blooded man, and he had ridden hard that morning, contrary to the doctor's orders. I suggested the brandy as a bracer, I remember." "An unfortunate suggestion, wasn't it?" Blaine asked, significantly. The other man made no reply. "There was another coincidence."
In sharp, clean-cut pictures his memory reproduced the night John Beaudry had last chanted the lullaby and that other picture of the Homeric fight of one man against a dozen. The foolish words were a bracer to him. He set his teeth and ploughed forward, still with a quaking soul, but with a kind of despairing resolution.
We are the rascals, Force Mary and I. We couldn't wait, don't you see? But, of course, you don't see. You couldn't see unless you'd been counting on Christmas morning for months. You But, what's the matter, Force? 'Pon my word, you DO need a bracer. Mary, dear, won't you see if " "See here, Bingle," blurted out Mr. Force, in desperation, "I want a few words with you alone. It is imperative.
I feel like climbing on to Mars." Frederic laughed again. "You go on, Banks," he said, relieving him of the cup; "she's all right. You hurry ahead before one of those girls walks over a precipice." He could not persuade her to take more of the liquor, so he himself drank the bracer, after which he put the cup and the flask, which Banks had left, away in his own pockets.
