Last innin' Bo's umpire switched balls on us. That ball was lively. An' they tried to switch back on me. But nix! We're goin' to git a chanst to hit that lively ball, An' they're goin' to git a dose of their own medicine. Now, you dead ones come back to life! Show me some hittin' an' runnin'."

She gave the girl dirty tangled flax to spin, and she had to fetch water in a bucket with a hole in it, and the boy had to hew down a tree with a blunt axe, and they got nothing to eat but dumplings as hard as stones. Then at last the children became so impatient, that they waited until one Sunday, when the nix was at church, and ran away.
"Lise, come away from here," she pleaded, "come home with me!" "Home!" said Lise, defiantly, and laughed. "What do you take me for? Why would I be going home when I've been trying to break away for two years? I ain't so dippy as that not me! Go home like a good little girl and march back to the Bagatelle and ask 'em to give me another show standing behind a counter all day. Nix!
"And the moral?" "Why, don't spar. Punch! Don't wait for the wallop. Give it." "You mean?" "Why, when old man Bannister says: 'Nix!

"But " The door-bell rang. "Who on earth's that?" said Kirk.
I don't want nuthin' given. I'm out to make a deal. You say there's no gold there. Wal, I say there sure is. That bein' so I'd be a low down skunk takin' ha'f your claim fer nix, jest because you guess you owe me things which I 'low you sure do, speakin' plain.
On the day the boss tells me you can go strolling, I'll give you the key to the city. Until then, nix! No use arguing, Mr. Hawksley." "I shan't argue," replied Hawksley, meekly. "I am really a prisoner, then?" "For your own good, sir. Do you wish to go down, Miss Conover?" "No." The boy swung the lever, and the car dropped from sight. "I'm sorry," said Kitty.
The former paused, forgetting the cold in his amazement. "What's wrong? Somebody sick?" "I don't know what's the matter. This man just says 'nix, that's all." The fellow, evidently a watchman, nodded his head, and growled, "Yaas! Ay got no room." "But you don't understand," said Emerson. "We're wet. We broke through the ice. Never mind the room, we'll get along somehow."
Kiss me" she held out tempting little red lips, invitingly pursed up. "Nix on that!" said Madison, smiling but firm, as he disengaged her arms. "Soft pedal, Helena, my dear." "But he can't see or hear," pouted Helena. "I should hope not!" said Madison, with a gasp. "But you never know who else might, or when they might we begin right, and run no risks see?
"Well, it came mighty near it, I can tell you. Joe was just ahead of me. When I got in he was saying to the operator, 'Rush this, will you? and I grabbed his coat and said nix." Jerry's tired face lighted up with satisfaction, and Lucy regarded him rather enviously. It seemed to her that Jerry was getting more than his share.
"I'd have been happier if I had learned that in time." "Say, nix on dis blarney, youse!" interrupted the Monk, who was trying to wriggle out of the arm hold of Burke and Maguire.

Burke explained.
