The child was completely cured, and in his gratitude her father sent the young doctor a check which it is said represented an amount larger than many men earn in a lifetime. "What does 'comatose' mean, Doctor Mac?" asked Smiles. "It means a condition during which the body appears to be lifeless.
Jope cheerfully: "like a cook's galley, small and cosy and no time to chat in it. Now then, my slumb'ring ogre!" The driver, who from the moment of the mishap had remained comatose, shook his reins feebly and we jogged forward. But this was his last effort. At the next sharp bend in the road he lurched suddenly, swayed for a moment, and toppled to earth with a thud. The horse came to a halt. Mr.
He saw clothes, dishevelled, rumpled clothes on the floor and he smelt stale cigarette smoke and stale liquor. The windows were tight shut. Outside the bright sunlight had thrown a dust-filled beam across the sill a beam broken by the head of the wide wooden bed in which he had slept. He lay very quiet comatose, drugged, his eyes wide, his mind clicking wildly like an unoiled machine.
But to carry us out of maturity into old age, without our knowing where we are going, she drugs us with strong opiates, and so we stagger along with wide open eyes that see nothing until snow enough has fallen on our heads to rouse our comatose brains out of their stupid trances. There is one mark of age that strikes me more than any of the physical ones; I mean the formation of Habits.
Then she remembered that she had indeed received a letter from Janet, but in her comatose dejection had neglected to answer it. "I'm up in London with father for the weekend.

You have slept exactly a week, and in the course of that time we fought a great battle with McClellan, were defeated by him, chiefly owing to your comatose condition, and have fallen back on Richmond, carrying you with us asleep in a wagon. If you will look behind you you will see the spires of Richmond. Oh, Harry! Harry! Why did you sleep so long and so hard when we needed you so much?"
Calhoun retrieved Murgatroyd who had been visiting with the wives of the higher-up officials. His small paunch distended with cakes and coffee and such delicacies as he'd been plied with. He was half comatose from over-feeding and over-petting, but he was glad to see Calhoun. At the spaceport they discovered the situation remained unchanged.
Colonel Sommerton saw this, and it added an enfeebling increment to his mental torpor. "Fellow-citizens," he presently roared, in his melodious bass voice, "I am proud of this honor." He was not sure of another word as he stood, with bagging trousers and sweat-beaded face, but he made a superhuman effort to call up his comatose wits.
Britten's father had delighted his family by reading aloud from Dr. That and the BAB BALLADS were the inspiration of some of our earliest lucubrations. For an imaginative boy the first experience of writing is like a tiger's first taste of blood, and our literary flowerings led very directly to the revival of the school magazine, which had been comatose for some years.
Having cleared up this matter so that our comatose cousins understood the relations of the dough and the apple in our national dumpling, to borrow one of their royal reminiscences, having eulogized the fidelity of the North to the national compact, he referred to the action of "that most true, honest, just, and conscientious magistrate, Mr.
