Bilious attacks, headaches, indigestion, etc., are simply nature's protest against the excess of food being forced upon her, and the natural cure is to severely restrict, or still better, entirely stop the food supply for a day or two.
Little bilious, maybe, but that's nothing. Why?" "Oh, nothing! Must say, though, you gave me a twist when I came on you suddenly. Maybe it's your epigastric nerve; maybe it's your liver and will pass off, but I'd knock off work for a day or two if I were you." Malone now took a hand. "Let me carry yer kit, Joppy, ye look done up. What's happened to ye, man, since mornin'?"
Altamont, don't mind me. When I'm out of health and I'm devilish bilious this morning hang me, I abuse everybody, and don't know what I say. Excuse me if I've offended you. I I'll try and get that little business done. Strong shall try. Upon my word he shall. And I say, Strong, my boy, I want to speak to you. Come into the office for a minute."
Dunckley in a voice which gave the impression that he had smoked too many cigars the previous evening an impression considerably strengthened by the bilious appearance of his face. 'Good-morning, sir. Will you have the Times or the Morning Post? And here are your letters, sir. The recumbent gentleman took the letters and waved them philosophically at the valet.
Brunet, a withered little man dressed from head to foot in black cloth, with a bilious skin, a furtive eye, curly hair, lips tight-drawn, pinched nose, anxious expression, and gruff in speech, exhibited the phenomenon of a character and bearing in perfect harmony with his profession.
"I don't think I ate much, sir," protested Dunstable. "It must have been what I ate. I went to that new American place." "So you went there, too? Why, I've just come from attending a bilious boy in Mr. Seymour's house. He said he had been at the American place, too." "Was that Merrett, sir? He was one of the party. We were all bad. We can't all have eaten too much." The doctor looked thoughtful.
His look was very bilious; trudging mechanically hither and thither where fewest people were to be met, he kept his eyes on the ground, and clumped to a dismal rhythm with the end of his walking-stick. In the three or four months since his marriage, he seemed to have grown older; he no longer held himself so upright. At the very moment agreed upon he was waiting close by the house.
My wife was dangerously ill with bilious fever, and was unable to stand, and I endeavoured to persuade the traders' party to postpone their departure for a few days. They would not hear of such a proposal; they had so irritated the Latookas that they feared an attack, and their captain, or vakeel, Ibrahim, had ordered them immediately to vacate the country. This was a most awkward position for me.
"My mother's illness," he continued, "the seizure which ended in her death, was sudden. The malady itself, one from which she had often suffered, a bilious fever its cause therefore constitutional. On the third day, in short, as soon as she could be prevailed on, a physician attended her, a very respectable man, and one in whom she had always placed great confidence.
"I just slapped you the way we used to slap each other on the campus. What I was going to say was that you have no business being a bachelor. With all your money, and nothing to do but travel and sit around hotels and clubs, no wonder you've grown bilious." "Oh, no; I'm not bilious," Mr. Gilling said uncomfortably. "I'm not bilious at all." "You ought to get married," Mr. Schofield returned.
