He paused to let the stranger who now held Number Fourteen pass him into the inner room then followed, closing the door behind him. THE consulting-room was better lighted than the waiting-room, and that was the only difference between the two.
This persistent worker woke to the great, stretching life outside outside of his consulting-room, of the grey sea that ringed the powerful Island, outside of Europe, a little weary, a little over-civilized. And a voice that seemed to come from the centre of his soul clamoured for wild empires, for freedoms unutterable.
"I wonder, would it?" For the life of her she couldn't imagine what he meant. When she got home she found her mother folding up the work in the work-basket. "Well, anyhow," Mamma said, "you've laid in a good stock of underclothing." She was sitting in the big leather chair in the consulting-room.
The distinguished patients, who daily flocked to the consulting-room of the celebrated specialist, who witnessed his perfect self-possession and took comfort from his confidence, knowing it for the confidence of strength, little suspected that a greater ill than any flesh is heir to, assailed the doctor to whom they came for healing.

When interviewed in his private consulting-room, he presents himself in a black merino dressing-gown girt about with a red cord, in red slippers, a red flannel waistcoat, a red skull-cap.
I appreciate your motives." His voice was full of sympathy, giving a treble value to the most ordinary words. "That is the action of a true friend." Rivière brought Elaine into the consulting-room, and left her in the great specialist's gentle hands. An assistant surgeon was there to act as interpreter. The verdict came quickly.
