"It's fifty-fifty if either of us, or any girl, would get along all right with a husband if we could get one it's no cinch. And now, women getting plentier and plentier, and men still scarcer and scarcer, it's sure tough times for a girl that hasn't eyes nor anything to get work with, or get married with." "Annie!" said her companion. "I wish you wouldn't!"
"Play a five for me," said Bartley, turning to Cheyenne. "I'll do that fifty-fifty," said Cheyenne as Bartley stepped back and handed him a bill. Cheyenne straightway elbowed deeper into the group and finally secured the dice. Wishful, for some unknown reason, remarked that he would back Cheyenne to win "shootin' with either hand," Wishful concluded.
Mr MacGinnis began to rumble, preparatory to making further remarks on the situation, but Sam waved him down and turned his brown eyes inquiringly on me. 'Fifteen per cent is our offer, he said. 'And to think it was once fifty-fifty! 'Strict business! 'Business? It's sweating! 'It's our limit. And it wasn't easy to make Buck here agree to that. He kicked like a mule.
Lord Wisbeach rose. "You'd better think it over, son," he said. "You aren't going to get anywhere by acting like a fool. You can't stop me going after this stuff, and if you won't come in and go fifty-fifty, you'll find yourself left. I'll beat you to it." He left the room, and Jimmy, lighting a fresh cigarette, addressed himself to the contemplation of this new complication in his affairs.
And on the instant I spoke there came to me a remembrance of her saying that Sunday morning as we pulled up before the St. Dunstan that she went past the place on the street car every day getting to her work at the Western Cereal Company. Sloppy of me not to have paid better attention; I knew vaguely that Dykeman was in one of the North Beach mills. "Fifty-fifty, Barbara," I conceded.
"I want a share in that mine," she answered evenly, "whatever you think is right." "Oh, that's the deal! You don't want fifty-fifty? You leave what it is to me?" "That's what I said from the very first. And as for fifty-fifty no, certainly I do not." There were tears, half of anger, gathering back in her eyes, but Rimrock took no thought of that.
Then, as if remembering some particular incident, they both laughed aloud and said, "Yes, and sometimes they use us as the back-fire! We trade fifty-fifty." Blue-Star Woman sat with her chin in the palm of one hand with elbow resting in the other. She rocked herself slightly forward and backward.
Look at Denny Slevin, for instance! I heard him say he had a hunch something unpleasant was going to happen to him, and it did. We'll go fifty-fifty on this Eclipse Creek." The doctor shrugged his shoulders. "Suit yourself. Fresh air won't hurt you." The first frosts of autumn had arrived before Laughing Bill returned to town with the announcement that he had struck a prospect.
"Whack up with me fifty-fifty. Haven't I told you times enough?" "But, I mean, what must I do to help?" "I don't need any of your help. I only want you to say that you'll lead me to that money." Vaniman drew a deep breath. "I will lead you to that money." "Some men would make you swear that you know just where the coin is," proceeded Wagg. "But I'm playing my own hunch in this thing on that point.
I had promised it to my boys, had I won." "And I the same," smiled the Doctor. "The puzzle is, who's won!" "Suppose we split, fifty-fifty, and, following our original plan, each give his share to his boys." "Splendid! Just the right thing!" exclaimed the Major. "It's a go!" The Doctor grasped the Major's hand.
