He must mean that Slider got tired of sliding down the board.
And then, just as if he had made up his mind to do that very thing, Slider wiggled along until he was only holding to the edge of the slanting board by his two hind feet, while his long tail was only partly on the box.
So though the children called what Slider did a "trick," it was more like an accident, though it was not a harmful one.
It was wrong to take our pet out of the barn, and it was wrong to put Slider in the baby carriage.
Down he slid until he reached the barn floor, and as there was some smooth straw at the point where the board rested, Slider slid across this straw for several feet.

Daddy Martin was told, that evening after supper, all that had happened during the day, from the discovery that Slider and Snuff could do tricks, to the finding of the pet alligator in baby Ruth's carriage.
Janet fixed the slanting board for Slider to coast "down hill," and when the alligator had done this the audience laughed its hardest.
I play wif Slider in barn, and den hims hoots get tired, so I bringed him over to ride in de carriage wif Ruff.
What with hoots, Slider and a board I'm all mixed up!
This slider is pushed into the slide-stage of the lantern, and the glass slides pushed into it as in Fig.
The slider is rather smaller than the stage in the lantern, which allows of it being adjusted so that the centre of the picture is in a line with the centre of the lenses.
These slides will be too small to use in the lantern by themselves, so you will have to make a wooden slider for them.

A friction-primer consists of a tube charged with gunpowder, to the top of which is fastened a spur containing friction-powder, which is exploded by means of a slider pulled out by a lanyard.
If the branches rest upon the trunnions before the point of the slider touches the gun at the scribe, their axis is below; but if the point touch first, above the axis of the bore, by half the space between.

Scenes are raised up the "slider cuts" by means of lengths of wood sliding up and down in grooves forming very wide and narrow elevators.
In order to manipulate, it is only necessary to cause the slider to move along the rod.
The floor of the bridge is like the slider floor in construction; the only difference is in the width of the opening left in the stage when the section of the floor has been removed.
God’s unfailing love for the back–slider and His willingness to receive him back.
When a back–slider has returned he should always be given instructions as to how to live so as not to back–slide again.
One end is narrow, and furnished with a slider that runs in a groove, and forms part of the rim.
The transformations are effected by moving the adjusting tube of the lantern out of focus, and changing the slider during the moment of the confused appearance.
As soon as the key is released, the piece of horn, regaining its natural bent by its own elasticity, pulls the slider out so that the perforation of the slider overlaps and the pipe is silenced.
When the key is depressed and the slider pushed home, the gut string pulls the slip of horn and straightens it.
Each slider contains a series of figures or pictures painted on glass with highly transparent colours.
The size of the lens C ought of course to be such that the section of its cone of rays at EF is equal to the size of the figure on the slider when C is at its greatest distance from the slider.
When the slider is at a there is less resistance in the antenna circuit and a larger alternating current.
Illustration: Fig 87] Every time the incoming signal makes one complete cycle of changes we shift the slider a little further and make the grid permanently more negative.
Now imagine an incoming signal, as shown in that same figure, but suppose that as soon as the signal has stopped making the grid positive we shift the slider a little so that the C-battery makes the grid slightly negative.
The tuning is varied, while you listen, by moving the slider of the slide-wire tuner or by moving the switches if you have connected your coil for that method.
And that means that the diaphragm moves back and forth in just the time it takes to move the slider back and forth.
The method of shifting a slider along, every time the incoming signal makes a complete cycle, is impossible to accomplish by hand if the frequency of the signal is high.
Instead of the slider we might use a little cup almost full of grains of carbon.
Each time we move the slider we get a new pair of values for volts and amperes.
The next step is to shift the slider in the grid circuit until we have again the original value of current in the plate circuit.
When the slider is at b there is more of the fine wire in series with the antenna, hence more resistance to the oscillations of the electrons, and hence a smaller oscillating stream of electrons.
Suppose that we now make it 50 volts and then vary the position of the slider in the grid circuit until the ammeter reads as it did at the start.
Then we shift the slider in the grid circuit so as to give the grid a small potential.
In the more northern parts of the Salado drainage (for example, in the Rio Sabinas near Muzquiz) slider turtles are typical P.
When a slider is in, the holes in it do not correspond with those in the table and upper board, so that no wind can get from the grooves to the rank over that particular slider.
As soon as the pallet opens, wind rushes into the groove above through the aperture in the leather bottom, and thence to any one of the pipes of which the slider has been drawn out.
The slider M moves along the resistance AB and its position is read on the scale S which is divided into 100 equal parts and can be read by a vernier to thousandths.
K, clamp slider with thumb screw, for obtaining light load adjustment by moving K to right or left, as may be necessary.
A new subspecies of the slider turtle (Pseudemys scripta) from Coahuila, Mexico.
Each slider has a gating cut in its outer edge sufficiently deep to allow it to embrace the inwardly projecting steel plate and turn on it with the barrel.
A quick starter, speedy runner, and clever slider might easily steal the most bases, and yet in general usefulness fall far behind some other player.
I consider Kelly the best all-round slider in the League, because he can, and does, use every style with equal freedom.
Examples, completely worked out, of velocity and acceleration diagrams for the slider crank chain, the four-bar chain, and the mechanism of the Joy valve gear will be found in ch.
This curve is described by having a fixed straight edge parallel to OX, along which slides a slidercarrying a pin whose centre is T.
These different mechanisms are called inversions of the slidercrank chain.
For example, there is a well-known mechanism corresponding to the fixing of three of the four links of the slider crank chain (fig.
A chain built up of three turning pairs and one sliding pair, and known as the slider crank chain, is shown in fig.
If the rails be connected by a wire, and the slider be moved so as to cut across the lines of force, a current will be produced in the circuit.
And now surmising that the slider is proficient in the first rudiments of the art, let us enumerate a few of the feats which a slider may perform while on the glassy track.
The relative value of shunt resistance is adjustable by means of slider G, so that the meter can be made to run slow on charge or fast on discharge, whichever may be desired.
If the meter be provided with a charge stopping device, the battery can be given an amount of overcharge predetermined by the setting of the slider G.
He arrived just in time to see the slider drop to earth.
Since it is not permissible to allow the slider to rebound at the end of its journey, some such arrangement of breaks as is shown must be adopted.
The moving end of the quartz is attached to a small boxwood slider working on a tubular girder or between wires.
In the diagram the bottom of the slider runs on to a brass spring between the girder and the base of the appliance, and so gets jammed; the spiral spring acts merely as an additional guard.
Footnote: For greater clearness of drawing, the tube carrying the slider is shown somewhat higher above the base than is convenient in practice; and the slide itself is shown too thin in the direction of the hole through it.
The quartz is secured in position by clamps shown at A and B, and motion is imparted to theslider by a stretched piece of catapult elastic (C).
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "slider" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
