How is Sai Baba's generosity described in Chapter 29, and was his giving predictable?

Chapter 29 portrays Sai Baba as a great saint who was patient, generous, and self-controlled. His fame for generosity spread widely, attracting many to Shirdi. The text notes that he would abundantly distribute money to the poor, needy, and pilgrims, sometimes giving ten rupees and at other times fifty. However, this chapter also emphasizes that his giving was not predictable. It was Baba's 'constant manner' that nothing was ever fixed; he might give money, a sweet, or send someone back empty-handed. The text clearly states that he did not give to everyone, and no one truly knew his mind in these matters.
