You boys had a nice time the other day, playing in the woods, when you saved your papa and his hat from the wolf's den, and so now it is Pinky's turn to have some fun. I'll take her shopping with me." "Oh goodie!" cried Baby Pinky, and she jumped into her go-cart and out again, making the springs jounce up and down like anything. "But I'll give you and Flop each a penny," said Mrs.
But it is in going down hill, and leaping from a "jounce" that the skier is at his best. It is not unusual for experts to jump one hundred and twenty feet from rise to fall.
It may have been heavily seasoned in the hope that it would jounce the rough boy of Baltimore, H. L. Mencken-and lo, there in the third row on the aisle, is Dr. Frank Crane, being made visibly ill by it.
One night I hearn an argument from the fenced-off part of the tent Watty and his wife slept in. She was setting on Watty's chest and he was gasping fur mercy. "You know it ain't true," says Watty, kind of smothered-like. "It is," says she, "you own up it is!" And she give him a jounce. "No, darling," he gets out of him, "you know I never could bear them thin, scrawny kind of women."
Jounce had been thoroughly posted by Andrew Barkswell, and knew that in the disguised man before him the noted detective was presented. "So," muttered Jounce, as he touched a spring with his foot that sent the weight back to its place in the ceiling, "I reckon you won't trouble us gents agin."
Keene sauntered into the card room, after partaking of a cigar. While here watching the players, a hand touched his arm. "Be you lookin' for somebody, mister?" Keene looked into a dark, repulsive face, and at once recognized the man who had been described as the tramp, Perry Jounce. "Yes," returned the detective. "Who mout it be?" Bending to the man's ear, Keene whispered the name of Barkswell.
It was twice as long as a church service, and a dozen times as long as the ride in the cars when she came up to Grandma's. But at last the five minutes was up, and with a little jounce Marjorie slid down to the next step, and prepared to spend another five. This was longer yet, and at the third-step Marjorie gave up this plan, as being the most dreadful thing she had ever tried.
The wheel struck a stone, and there was a jounce; the bottom fellows wriggled out, what was left of them, and sat up, gasping. They had rather run the risk than try that again. But they met no one. It was a night when there is no sound.
Instantly the young engineer realized that murder was intended. Self defense is the first law of nature, and Bordine acted upon it with the quickness of lightning. His right hand shot forward, a bright flash followed, and the next instant the burly form of Perry Jounce disappeared from the doorway. He had fallen, bleeding, to the ground, from the bullet August Bordine sent hurtling into his face.
Barkswell wished to avoid a quarrel, and so he said with a smile: "You misunderstood my meaning entirely, Perry. Iris was determined on quarreling with me over an unimportant matter. You know she's terribly jealous, and she worked herself up into a fainting fit." Perry Jounce accepted the explanation with a growl. He did not attempt to push matters to a crisis.
