"He acts as if the Allies were a lot of children. He thinks that all he has to do is to dress up a bugaboo and we'll all roll over and play dead." "He'll get something into that thick head of his after a while," predicted Frank. "It will have to be jabbed in, but there are a lot of us ready to do the jabbing." "Let him bring on his bag of tricks," scoffed Bart.
Spalding, who was accustomed to talk while standing, leaned against the desk, feet crossed, brows furrowed. As he talked, he emphasized his remarks by jabbing the air with his pencil. "Well," said Emma quietly, "it didn't go." "It didn't even start," corrected Spalding. "But why?" demanded Buck. "Why?" Spalding leaned forward a little, eagerly.
It had strings and altogether belonged to an epoch at least twenty years away. The bonnet she "laid aside" on a table with a certain absent care, as ladies were accustomed to treat bonnets before they got into the way of jabbing them with pins. Then she sat down, earnestly solicitous and attentive as at a consultation. Anne thought she was the most beautiful person she had ever seen.
The grass in this corner of the paddock was especially good; and these unshamed delinquents rode slowly through and through the mob, each vainly trying to identify and count his own; while now and then one would pass out to overbear some encroaching pagan by loud-spoken interrogations respecting a bay mare with a switch tail, or a strawberry bullock with wide horns such ostentatious inquiry being accompanied by a furtive and vicious jabbing of evidence's horse, or evidence himself, with some suitable instrument.
It was like trying to bite through a pillow, the feathers fangs, and just as they were beginning to prick the owlet's skin, Papayuchisew jabbing a little blindly with a beak that snapped sharply every time it closed got him by the ear. The pain of that hold was excruciating to Baree, and he made a more desperate effort to get his teeth through his enemy's thick armor of feathers.
"Judas priest!" exclaimed Bunker jabbing his candlestick into the copper streak, "say, this is showing up good. And your silver vein is widening out, too. Nothing to it, boy; you've got a mine!" "Not yet," said Denver, "but wait till she dips. This is nothing but a blanket vein, so far; but if she dips and goes down then look out, old-timer, she's liable to turn out a bonanza."
I'm wondering if the woman I loved was yourself, or merely my idealization of you." "I can't help it if I'm not the incarnation of all the virtues you imagined me to be!" Olive sat down and played nervously with a penholder, jabbing meaningless lines and dots on to a loose sheet of paper.
There was a little pause, then without raising his eyes from the task in hand which was at that precise moment the covering of a biscuit with a large and generous layer of marmalade, Bones went on. "I practically saved the life of one of Bosambo's headmen. He was on the ground and three fellows were jabbing at him. The moment they saw me they dropped their spears and fled."
You never could tell what might happen or when somebody was going to get the death sign. There was Judge Deasy he had the whole front of his house blown clean out by a bomb! That had been a close call! And these Chinks with their secret oaths and rituals they'd think nothing at all of jabbing a knife into you.
"No chance to go behind the returns and stir up popular indignation, as we did in Indiana?" suggested Tom. "No show on top of earth. The ring owns or controls two of the dailies, and has the other two scared. Besides, they've just had their municipal election." The Gordon-and-Gordon manager was absently jabbing holes in the desk blotter with the paper-knife.
