But he likes to talk about boots, and a recurring subject of conversation with him is the difficulty of finding a man who really understands doing them properly. He knows a great deal about blacking and brushes, and is no mean authority on the art of boning or polishing or varnishing refractory footgear of all kinds.
Upon Just devolved the task of heading Jeff off for those prospective two weeks. "Besides, I've an idea Lanse may prefer July or August." "If you'd been boning for examinations the way I have," retorted Jeff, "your one idea would be to get off into the wilderness just as soon as your sheepskin was fairly in your hands. I don't see why you argue against going in June.
Poor Phil was fourteen when he was drowned. Under the ice on the Serpentine. He had just been licking me for boning a strap of his skate. I was doing the best way I could without it ... to get mine on, you see ... when I heard a stop in the grinding noise what goes on all day, you know and a sort of clicky slooshing, and I looked up, and there were a hundred people under the ice, all at once.
Sticking up a bank, or boning a flock of maiden ewes to take up a run with? They seem to be game for anything. There'll be a hanging match in the family if us boys don't look out. 'Oh! a horse; that alters the matter. But what's one horse to make such a shine about? 'Ah, that's the point, says poor old Jim, 'it's a horse worth talking about.
"Sure they will in a minute!" declared Cora, confidently. "All I've got to do is to tell 'em. You see, I've been making friends in Pinewood Hall, while you've been 'boning. Some of them think you are too stiff." "I don't mean to be," protested Nancy, shaking her head. "Well, here's a chance for you to show 'em. You say you've got some money left?" "Oh, yes." "How much?" asked Cora, bluntly.
He doesn't know some things and I don't know others." "No one has everything," said Foster quickly. "Startling fact! But we fellows who live in glass houses mustn't throw stones I 'fawncy, as my learned instructor would put it. There I am again, finding fault even with Splinter when I ought to be boning on this Greek to make up for my own lacks. Here I go!"
If Nicholas is late, it is, perhaps, because he has found something on the way, as he did yesterday this linen, boned from a washing-boat;" and she showed one of the pieces of linen which Amandine was unmarking; then, speaking to the child, she said, "What does boning mean?" "This means to take," answered the child, without raising her eyes.
"Oh, it's all done," said Warble, "While you were taking her plood bressure, I cut off her ear " "What with?" "Oh, I had a boning knife and the sardine scissors. It's all right. And I've fixed her hair lovely in a big curly earmuff, so it will never show at all. Be quiet for a day or so, Polly, and then you'll be all right.
"I'm going to drop in, one of these January days," murmured Dave. "And so am I. But," added Dick, with a smile, "don't let us be indiscreet and be roped into going into a recitation. We'll find the class has been moving ahead while we've been boning over West Point and Annapolis requirements."
When the master here, Seigneur Garum, received it from the hands of a skilful cooper he perfumed it with juniper, thyme, and rosemary. Seigneur Garum has not his equal in bleeding the meat, boning it, and cutting it up, carefully, thoughtfully, and lovingly, and steeping it in salted liquors by which it is preserved and embalmed.
