This is done by having the persuader fitted on, and whenever you sat "whoa", in a loud and stern tone of voice, pull on the persuader, and it is impossible for a horse to fear or dread anything else as much as this, he will stop instantly, no matter what may occur to frighten him. How to break a horse off the habit of throwing his rider.
Ramiro put his hand upon his shoulder and shook him slightly as he answered: "And has it not struck you, you vain puppy, that other things may blind you also hot irons, for instance?" "What do you mean?" gasped Adrian. "I mean that the rack is a wonderful persuader. Oh! it makes the most silent talk and the most solemn sing. Now take your choice.
I slipped my elbow up and got under his chin, forcing his head back. His breath smelled of beer and onions. I was choking him when he brought his knee up and got me in the stomach and again on the instep when he brought his heel down. It broke my hold, and I staggered back groping for the persuader. He jumped back as far as I did. I felt somehow that he was glad.
Listen, we got the kid picked her up at a drug-store." "I don' know watcher fairy tale's about. If you gotta message come through with it." Clay put his foot against the door to prevent it from being closed and drew his hand from the overcoat pocket. In the hand nestled a blue-nosed persuader.
He carries two or three Mills bombs and a pistol, but not for use except in extreme emergency. Also a persuader stick or a trench knife, which he may use if he is near enough to do it silently. The patrol stares constantly through the dark and gets so he can see almost as well as a cat. He must avoid being seen. When a Very light goes up, he lies still.
And he wants to because he knows he will be whipped so much harder if he runs away. Desire is, therefore, the great citadel toward which all of the campaign of the persuader must be directed. Given a powerful enough desire, decision and action follow as a matter of course. Psychologists have determined that imagination is the most powerful mental stimulus to desire.
I gave him a pipe and a chair, and made him welcome. I also comforted him with a hot Scotch whisky; gave him another one; then still another hoping always for his story. After a fourth persuader, he drifted into it himself, in a quite simple and natural way: I am an American. I was born and reared in Hartford, in the State of Connecticut anyway, just over the river, in the country.
I worked at it only because you used to like it." "What, you think I do not like it now?" "I KNOW you do not." "But you paint still?" "No! I have not handled brush or pencil for a week. Mr. Edgerton was reproaching me only yesterday for my neglect." "Ah, indeed! Well, you promised him to resume, did you not? He is a rare persuader! He is so amiable, so mild you could not well resist."
Thumb-screws and all, this appeared to be only a very elaborate "persuader," for use upon those who must be made to talk. But the doctor was thinking hard. A big light flashed into his eyes. "This," he declared, positively, "is something that will become a matter of course in our own educational system, as soon as the science of phrenology is better understood."
It's well, youngster, you didn't make any more fuss, or I might have had to use my little persuader"; and he displayed the pistol. "Will you let me go now, sir?" "I have not got through my business yet. That's a nice overcoat of yours." Harry looked at him, in doubt as to his meaning, but he was soon enlightened.
