For a while it seemed as if the visit would have to be postponed until it dried, when Mary had an inspiration. "Wrap yer cloud around his head and say you wuz feart of the earache, the day is so cold." This was done and a blanket off one of the beds was pressed into service as an outer wrap for Danny.
An embarrassingly long silence followed these words, during which time the two friends looked at each other in a mocking way. Finally the Marionette, in a voice sweet as honey and soft as a flute, said to his companion: "Tell me, Lamp-Wick, dear friend, have you ever suffered from an earache?" "Never! And you?" "Never! Still, since this morning my ear has been torturing me." "So has mine."
She moved towards the door and turned the handle. Albert, the page boy, who had been courting earache by listening at the keyhole, straightened his small body and scuttled away. "Well, is that all, Aunt Caroline? May I go now?" "Certainly. I have said all I wished to say." "Very well. I'm sorry to disobey you, but I can't help it."
So Henry replied: "Coming, sir" and went out, but again locked the door. Before he went out he said: "Now mind, any noise up here and we will finish you and your father also. He then went down, and I could hear my dear Parent's voice which I felt I would probably never hear again, discussing new tires and Henry's earache, which was not a real one, as I now knew.
"Damn the cat!" said Anthony to himself. He was distressed, irritated, absurdly upset, because he would have to go back to Nicky without Jane, because he couldn't get Nicky what he wanted. In that moment Anthony loved Nicky more than any of them. He loved him almost more than Frances. Nicky's earache ruined the fine day. He confided in young Vereker.
I have found a whole new household of "éclopés" at Adinkerke, who want cigarettes, socks, and shoes all the time. They are a pitiful lot, with earache, toothache, and all the minor complaints which I myself find so trying, and they lie about on straw till they are able to go back to the trenches again. The pollard willows between here and Adinkerke are all being cut down to build trenches.
How many have I said? She looked solemn and shook her head. 'I had to give it up, says she. 'It makes my head ache to count fast very long. Doesn't it give you a headache to count fast, Mr. Winslow? Jed, he mumbled some kind of foolishness about some things givin' him earache. I laughed at the two of 'em.
He first put his hand across his eyes, then pressed his forehead: she feared he had a bad headache. The hand went next to his ear, with a shrinking, excruciating gesture; it must be the earache thought Helen. Presently his jaws were pinched together; toothache perhaps. At last she detected the disturbing cause. Opposite to Mr.
She knew, and Nicky knew that, if a little boy could establish the fact of earache, he was absolved from all social and family obligations for as long as his affliction lasted. He wouldn't have to stand still and pretend he liked it while he was being kissed at. Frances kept her mouth shut when she smiled, as if she were trying not to. It was her upper lip that got the better of her.
"Headache, earache, toothache, lumbago, Bright's disease?" said Nickie, suggestively. "No." The woman shook her head. "We ain't got nothin' in the 'ouse but rhoomertism in me ole man's back. He's bin laid up three weeks with it." "Dr. Crips's Rheumatic Balm!" exclaimed Nickie, with decision, restoring the first bottle to the bag, and producing another of exactly the same mixture.
