Publisher's Synopsis

On the platform I used to tell a negro ghost story that had a pause in front of the snapper on the end, and that pause was the most important thing in the whole story. If I got it the right length precisely, I could spring the finishing ejaculation with effect enough to make some impressible girl deliver a startled little yelp and jump out of her seat-and that was what I was after. This story was called "The Golden Arm," and was told in this fashion. You can practise with it yourself-and mind you look out for the pause and get it right.
