She got away from the flat about ten o'clock, but on the steps outside met Condy dressed as if for bicycling, and smoking a cigarette. "I've got eleven dollars!" he announced cheerily. "But I thought it was ptomaine poisoning!" she cried with sudden vexation. "Pshaw! that's what the doctor says. He's a flapdoodle; nothing but a kind of a sort of a pain. It's all gone now.
He knew all about their pretty home in Orange, about Ned and the rabbits, Fritz, the bicycling, and the tennis playing, while they in their turn took the deepest interest in his country and Eton experiences. One morning Rex and our two boys went to Justice Barrington's chambers. There they expected to find Dr. Kingsley, but when they arrived only Jarvis, the solemn-faced old servitor, met them.
"On the first floor, sir, facing south." "Couldn't be better. The very thing. Ah! Here comes my baggage." And the others saw a policeman bicycling up the avenue, with a small portmanteau balanced precariously between the handlebars and the front buttons of his tunic. "You gentlemen will dine in my room, I hope?" said Tomlinson, when he had escorted them upstairs.

Hill climbing and bicycling also tend to this end, but the latter is for many reasons not a form of exercise to be recommended to one who wishes to attain the highest results with the voice. Wind, dust, a stooping position, excessive heat of the body, etc., are all among the many factors of risk for the delicate vocal mechanism.
He gave one the feeling that having conquered death he was sleeping. I did what he had requested of me. Indeed, I could not help it. I thought of him constantly. That may have been the explanation of it. I was bicycling through Norfolk, and one afternoon, to escape a coming thunderstorm, I knocked at the door of a lonely cottage on the outskirts of a common.
'I know the place, said Dudley Pickering. 'A sinister, tumbledown sort of place. Just where a bunch of crooks would be living. 'I thought it was a bee-farm, said Lady Wetherby. 'One of the tradesmen told me about it. I saw a most corkingly pretty girl bicycling down to the village one morning, and they told me she was named Boyd and kept a bee-farm at Flack's.
