Mother told me to stay and watch you, and you've got to keep here on the beach and dig for gold!" "There isn't any gold here!" declared Laddie. "I've dug all over, and we can't find any; can we, Vi?"

He found diem a few dollars richer, as they had borrowed ten dollars from the bartender on their reputations as poker players and had used the money to stake Mr. McAllister in a game against the local poker champion. "Has Hopalong an' Red showed up yet?" Asked Mr. Peters, frowning at the delay already caused. "Nope," replied Johnny Nelson, as he paused from tormenting Billy Williams.
When they were over, both boys took off their head phones and gazed solemnly at each other. "Can you beat it?" asked Herb at length, in a bewildered way. "Nope," responded Jimmy. "I'm not even going to try. Just think of those two Indians actually getting on a broadcasting programme! I'm knocked so hard that I'll have to eat another doughnut to set me straight again. Finish 'em up, Herb."
"Well bless my soul!" ejaculated the astounded Mrs. Comstock. "To think I was worrying for fear you couldn't take care of yourself!" Elnora laughed while she played. "Shall I tell you what he said?" "Nope! I don't want to hear it!" said Elnora. "He is only six hours from Chicago. I'll give her a week to find him and fix it up, if he stays that long.

'This is a wine-grape valley. It don't raise enough hay an' feed for its own animals. It has to be shipped in from the San Joaquin Valley.
Team after team drove up to the door, and as the drivers leaped out to receive the women, they said in low but eager tones to the bystanders: "Meeting begun yet?" "Nope!" "What kind of a time y' havin' over here, any way?" "A mighty solumn time," somebody would reply to a low laugh. By seven o'clock every inch of space was occupied; the air was frightful.
"Where was her mother all this time?" "Settin' right there in the buggy beside her, holdin' the reins. Where else would she be?" "Did she say anything about my coming to see her daughter?" "Nope. She never said anythin' 'cept 'Good mornin', Ike, an' I sez 'Good mornin', Mrs. Gwyn. She don't talk much, she don't. You see, she's in mournin' fer her husband. I guess he wuz your pa, wuzn't he?"
Nine whole cow-punchers a-pinin' for work," he shouted, but then added thoughtfully, "Mebby they's engaged," it being one of the courtesies of the land not to take another man's help. "Nope. They've stampeded for th' Hills an' left their boss all alone," replied Frenchy, well knowing that such desertion would not, in the minds of the Bar-20 men, add any merits to the case of the distant outfit.
Both of you went to sleep take thet from me!" "Wal, he's gone, an' he took the kid's gun with him," said Bill, coolly. "Now we'll be dodgin' bullets." Dick Leslie had escaped! I could hardly keep down a cry of triumph. I did ask if it was true, but none of them paid any attention to me. Buell then ordered Herky-Jerky to trail Dick and see where he had gone. Herky refused point-blank. "Nope.
I shall be surprised if he does not fall on your neck." They found Mr. Jarvis in his fancier's shop, engaged in the intellectual occupation of greasing a cat's paws with butter.
