You can take a look around after you eat, and see what all there is to do. Well, set up, folks; ain't much, but I've throwed my feet under the table fer less and was thankful to git it, now I'm a-tellin' yuh!" Big Medicine bethought him of the remains of the train lunch which they had frugally saved. He brought that and added it to Applehead's impromptu meal.
The languor of nervous exhaustion was pulling his eyelids down over his tired eyes, and he knew that it must be nearly morning; for sleep never came to him now until after Applehead's brown rooster had crowed for two o'clock. He closed his eyes and dreamed that he was "shooting" blizzard scenes with the snow to his armpits.
When those night scenes were tinted and that scene which had for its sub-title Opening Exercises, and which showed the Happy Family mounting Applehead's snakiest bronks and riding away from camp into what would be an orange sunrise after the positive had been through its dye bath
Applehead's booming laugh was to Luck as a vague accompaniment to his own thoughts darting here and there among his plans. "Aw, gwan!" Happy Jack was exclaiming in his habitual tone of protest. "Conductor lied to me, is how I come to be over to that place when the train started to pull out. I was buyin' something. I wasn't talking to no Mexican girl. I betche "
He was under the house, but I reckon so many strange voices kinda got his goat. There ain't ary yowl to be got outa that hole no more. Come, kitty-kitty-kitty!" Luck threw out his hands despairingly, and then laughed. Applehead's tender solicitude for his cat was a fixed characteristic of the man, and Luck knew there was no profit in argument upon the subject.
She seemed to be carrying some bright-hued burden upon her shoulders, and she was, without doubt, coming straight down to the ranch as to a much-desired goal. "You can search me," he said emphatically in answer to Applehead's question. "Must be some señora away off the trail. I never saw her before in my life."
While they were waiting for coffee to boil, Luck told him what he was up to this time. Told him what it was he meant to do in the way of making a Western picture that should be worthy the West. He did not say a word about needing Applehead's assistance; he did not need to say a word about that.
Annie-Many-Ponies stilled the ache in her heart with the thought of her proud place beside Ramon who had much land and many cattle and who loved her so much. She lifted her hand and swore she would go with him. She slipped away then and crept into her tent in the little cluster beside the house for the company 'had forsaken Applehead's adobe and slept under canvas as a matter of choice.
But all this, as Rosemary well knew, was an unimportant detail of the general scheme of work going on at Applehead's ranch. To her it seemed wonderful, the way Luck was pushing his picture to completion against long odds sometimes, fighting some difficulty always.
By that method he avoided much trouble and hurry and hard work and escaped also the cares which come with wealth. But this spring was not as other springs had been. Something whether an awakened ambition or an access of sentiment regarding range matters, he did not know was stirring the blood in Applehead's veins.
