If it does happen like I say, you pay each of us two hundred large round simoleons per each and every month." "Come again," said Mr. Saltoun, wrinkling his forehead. Racey came again as requested. "Six months is a long time" frowned Mr. Saltoun. "If I lose " "But I dunno what I'm talkin' about," pointed out Racey. "I make mistakes, you know that. And you were so shore nothin' was gonna happen.
Our literary men are writing advertisements instead of poetry and getting more for it. And if you, on the one hand, can make a picture of the Rockies, which you can't sell, and on the other can make a picture of a pair of shoes, which you can sell, which, as a woman of good sense, in need of the simoleons, are you going to do? You're going to draw the shoes and the pay cheque.
"You know you aren't the only one to consider in this matter; the rest of us are entitled to a look-in. For Heaven's sake, try to control this excess of virtue, and when you get into one of those Martin Luther moods, just reflect that I have laid ten thousand aching simoleons on the altar." "Sure!" supplemented George; "and look at me and Cherry.
Milt aint no sweet-scented geranium but's out fer all the simoleons he can pick off the little old Mazuma Tree, why, I on'y says what I reads an' hears, believe me. You bein' his nephew aint changin' public opinion none. See?" Kendrick's anger at this brazenness had prevented him from thinking clearly.
He's all alone, dis kid, so when de rent-guy blows in, who's to slip him over de simoleons? It'll be outside for his, quick." Billy warmed up at this tale of distress in his usual way. "Somebody ought to do something. It's a vile shame the kid being turned out like that." "We will see to it, Comrade Windsor. Cosy Moments shall step in.
She beamed gratefully upon him. "Need any money, Bill, old timer?" she flashed at him suddenly, with delightful camaraderie. "There should be no secrets between partners. I do." "Quanto?" "Cinquenta mille pesos oro, señorita." "Help!" "Fifty thousand bucks, iron men, simoleons, smackers, dollars " She reached down and removed a fountain pen from his upper vest pocket.
"If yu wants to corral this here herd of simoleons yu has to ride a cayuse what Red bet me yu can't ride. Yu has got to grow on that there saddle and stayed growed for five whole minutes by Buck's ticker. I ain't a-goin' to tell yu he's any saw-horse, for yu'd know better, as yu reckons Red wouldn't bet on no losin' proposition if he knowed better, which same he don't.

"Too bad, Billy but what is it?" asked Skinny. "What is it? Wha'd yu think it was, you emaciated match? Jewelry? Cayuses? It's whisky two simoleons' worth. Some-thin's allus wrong.
And I've seen Central Park and the Statue of Liberty," railed the other. "Thinkin' of patternizing Mertoun, was you?" "Yes, I'd like to." "Like to! There's a party at the Astorbilt's to-morrow night; you'd like to go to that, wouldn't you? Fat chance!" said the disdainful and seasoned cit. "D'you know what Mertoun would do to you? Set you back a hundred simoleons soon as look at you.
