"And as for the store," broke in the Captain, "I cal'late you've been pawin' over them books and they've kind of kind of gone to your head. I don't wonder at it, this time of night! Hamilton and Company's all right. We may be a little mite behind in some of our bills, but er but. . . . DON'T look at me like that, Mary-'Gusta! What do you do it for? Stop it, won't you?"

Ain't he unhappy now, bitin' his fingers an' pawin' the earth an' findin' nothin'? I feel real sorry, I do, fur Braxton. It's hard fur a nice young feller to have to suffer sech disappointments." Shif'less Sol chuckled again, and Henry was forced to smile in the darkness. Shif'less Sol was not wholly wrong. It would be a bitter blow to Braxton Wyatt. Moreover, it was pleasant where they sat.
There's such a dim light we could hardly read the cards in the door plates, and we was pawin' around, dazed, when a husky bleached blonde comes sailin' out of an apartment.

Nothin's the matter with ME; but there's somethin' the matter with other folks, I tell you that!
"She came over with me, but stopped to look over the tally for those cows that are goin' with the drive." More to himself than to Parenthesis or Polly, Sage-brush said: "I wish she'd stayed at the ranch. This range is no place for women now. Buck McKee and his outfit has tanked up with Gila whisky, an' they're just pawin' for trouble." "What's come over people lately?" asked Polly.
