Yes, friend, 'Annie Laurie, she'll be up in Sacramentos; and from all I can figure, there'll be trouble in that particular health resort." "Sometimes I think you're loco," said Tom Osby, slowly; "then again I think you ain't, quite. The man who allows he's any better than this country don't belong here; but I didn't think you ever did." "No!" cried Dan Anderson. "Don't ever say that of me."
Proposing Certain Wonders of Modern Progress, as wrought by Eastern Capital and Able Corporation Counsel Tom Osby and Constance walked up the trail toward the hotel, and Dan Anderson from a distance saw them pass. He watched the gray gown move through sun and shadow, until it was lost beyond the thickening boles of mountain pines.
"Say, this is pretty poor, ain't it, Curly?" "And then," went on Willie, frowning at the interruption, "the beautiful queen sends for her milk-white palfrey, and she flies to the distant bedside of the sufferin' knight." "She'll take a milk-white buckboard, more likely," said Tom Osby. "You got any palfreys on your ranch, Curly? But we'll let it go at that.
Coffee was there assuredly, as one might tell by the welcome odor now ascending. Upon the table there was something masked under an ancient copy of a newspaper. Outside the door of the adobe, in the deepest shade obtainable, sat two soap boxes full of snow, or at least partly full, for Tom Osby had done his best.
"I was just thinking" said Tom Osby, at length, scarce turning his head as he accosted Dan Anderson, "that since watermelons don't grow very much up here in the mountings, we might take a load of passengers back home with us." "Passengers?" A voice came from the blankets. "Yes. Whole bunch of them railroad folks comin' up on the mornin' train from El Paso.
"I said that's why I come!" "You want me to come up to Heart's Desire to sing? Ah, I wish that were not impossible." "No, there's no one sent me," said Tom Osby.

Tom Osby picked up his reins and drove back across the arroyo. Thus, without unbecoming ostentation, Heart's Desire became possessed of certain features never before known in its history.

It's right embarrassin' for a lady like you to try to oblige a feller like me. But, ma'am, all I can say is, all the boys'll be mightily obliged to you." She flashed upon him a smile which had tears in it.
"No, let him go on," said Curly to McKinney. "Onct over on the Brazos " "Sometimes I think you fellows are inclined to be provincial," said Dan Anderson, calmly. "Now, I'm not goin' to talk if you don't leave me alone. Listen. What does Tom Osby see in that horn that he's lookin' into? I'll tell you. He sees a plumb angel in white clothes and a blue sash.
"The good knight presses his signet ring on to the missive," resumed Willie, "and his trusted cow hand wraps the missive in the folds of his cloak, and climbs on to his trusted steed, and flies far, far away, to the side of the beautiful queen." "That's good!" "And the beautiful queen reads the missive, and clasps her hands, and says she, 'My Gawd!" "Oh, now we're gettin' at it!" said Tom Osby.
