The last-named stood behind the counter, stroking his irregular profile with one hand, and throwing a box of J nibs into the air and catching it with the other. Upon the Prophet's entrance this youth obligingly dropped the nibs accidentally upon the floor, and arranged his sharp and anemic face in an expression of consumptive inquiry.
Cal Emmett dug his spurs into his horse and shot by Slim like a locomotive, shouting profanity as he went. "Head him into the creek," yelled Happy Jack, and leaned low over the neck of his sorrel. Weary Willie stood up in his stirrups and fanned Glory with his hat. "Yip, yee e-e! Go to it, Banjo, old boy! Watch his nibs ride, would yuh? He's a broncho buster from away back."
Shining lights, every one of them. And when they are lit up they can't be kept under a bushel. The police just had to do something. They won't be here not one of them. Their lawyer will plead guilty, and pay the fines, and every one will be sorry they were caught. Even his nibs on the bench isn't twice as happy. It was by good luck he wasn't with the bunch himself."
Consolidated Nibs i.e., cocoa-nibs ground between heated stones, whence it flows in a paste of the consistency of cream, which, when cool, hardens into a cake containing all the cocoa-butter.

"Oh dear, oh dear," sighed Wendy. "Now these three children had a faithful nurse called Nana; but Mr. Darling was angry with her and chained her up in the yard, and so all the children flew away." "It's an awfully good story," said Nibs. "They flew away," Wendy continued, "to the Neverland, where the lost children are." "I just thought they did," Curly broke in excitedly.
"Ah, ha! Five hundred cold bucks in Yankee money!" cried Hemlock Holmes, as he rubbed his hands with pleasure. "Gather up this mazuma, Watson, and give His Nibs a receipt for it, as we are both after the coin, only you haven't got the nerve to admit it. Well, Mr.
"Oo!" they all moaned, though they were not really considering the feelings of the unhappy parents one jot. "Think of the empty beds!" "Oo!" "It's awfully sad," the first twin said cheerfully. "I don't see how it can have a happy ending," said the second twin. "Do you, Nibs?" "I'm frightfully anxious."
"No wonder those men robbed him. I wish they had taken all his gold, and escaped." "You're pretty sore on his heavenly nibs, ain't you?" Ponatah clenched her hands and her eyes blazed.

"No, I wouldn't," Bill declared, firmly.
"Hard, sir!" said the man, smiling, and wiping the pen he held on the tail of his coat, though it did not require it, and then he kept on holding it up to his eye as if there were a hair or bit of grit between the nibs. "Yes, I should just think it is hard. Nutshells is nothing to it. Just like bits of granite stones as they mend the roads with.
You know anything you have yourself. Well, I'm much obliged for your hospitality. I'll do the same for you another time. Now I must be getting along to see to the practical end of the thing.
