"Wish you'd 'a' come along to show us how to do it an hour ago." "I would, only " "Quit chinning an' get busy," remarked Red, climbing down. "The chute's full; an' it's all yourn." Billy caught the iron, gave it a preliminary flourish, and started to work with a speed that would not endure for long. He branded five out of the eight and jeered at his companion for being so slow.
"So that's why you shipped me such a lot of scum and riffraff, was it, you villain?" Captain Hamilton asked. "You can think as you like about that," answered Ditty. "But this here kind of chinning won't git us anywhere. I know all about the map and that paper, an' I know that you come here lookin' for that loot. An' I bet you've found it a'ready.
"What is a church?" I asked. "Oh, I forgot," says the twenty, "that I was talking to a tenner. Of course you don't know. You're too much to put into the contribution basket, and not enough to buy anything at a bazaar. A church is a large building in which penwipers and tidies are sold at $20 each." I don't care much about chinning with gold certificates. There's a streak of yellow in 'em.
"I haven't had a thing to eat in forty or fifty days. Come on, now," he added, "be good fellows and open up. I'm so hungry I could eat a brass cylinder." "Aw, let him in!" advised Tommy. "He'll stand there chinning all night if we don't! We've got enough to eat for the present anyway."
Burton, realizing that he had said something he hadn't ought to, bit his lip angrily. "How'd you happen to come to Catalina?" he went on. "The Happy Trail branched in this direction." "Eh?" "Well," Clancy laughed, "Hiram came to Catalina to find his father, and I'm helping in the search. We've got a few things to discuss, Hank, and I think we'll do the chinning ashore."
John shows about the same physical power as Henry, when measured by running and jumping and chinning; but John can hit the ball with his bat more times out of a hundred than Henry can, whereas Henry can hit the bull's-eye with his rifle more times out of a hundred than John can.
The graceful foliage of willow, elm and alder, joined in friendly groups by wild grape vines, leaned over the dark water "as if still listening for the golden thoughts of Hawthorne, Chinning, Emerson and Thoreau."
There's Fitz up there now, chinning with him, and I bet Fitz don't know much more of his game than you and me. He takes his orders just like we do." "That's right. We ain't hired to think. Not in this ship," agreed Chips. "Do you think, Roy, that Beulah that she jumped herself?" The lady's voice was trembling. "I don't know, dear. I think maybe she did.
Bobbie went to the front door of the station house with the old gentleman, and saluted as a farewell. "What's he been chinning to you about, Burke?" queried the Captain. "Some of his ideas of reforming the world? He's a great old character, is Doc." "I think he knows a lot more about religion than a good many ministers I've heard," replied Bobbie. "He ought to talk to a few of them." "Sure.
These daughters of luxury wanted one luxury that money could not buy. The luxury of chinning their drivel to an audience. You can't buy audiences as you buy orchids and furs.
