"At the scene of the catastrophe the surface of the water seemed dotted with bodies. Only a few of the lifeboats seemed to be doing any good. The cries of 'My God! 'Save us! and 'Help! gradually grew weaker from all sides, and finally a low weeping, wailing, inarticulate sound, mingled with coughing and gargling, made me heartsick. I saw many men die.
"But, if she if this young lady is your daughter, how did she know my name?" The point seemed to strike Mr. Bennett. He turned to Billie. "That's true. Tell me, Wilhelmina, when did you and Mr. Peters meet?" "Why, in in Sir Mallaby Marlowe's office, the morning you came there and found me when I was talking to Sam." Mr. Peters uttered a subdued gargling sound.
I broke free and was out into the corridor. The noise seemed to come from the shaft that led to the engine room, and I jumped for it, while I heard doors slam. This time, there was a commotion, like a wet sack being tossed around in a pentagonal steel barrel, and another hoarse scream that cut off in the middle to a gargling sound.
And that I may also maintain the right, hear the story of another fire-dog; he speaketh actually out of the heart of the earth. Gold doth his breath exhale, and golden rain: so doth his heart desire. What are ashes and smoke and hot dregs to him! Laughter flitteth from him like a variegated cloud; adverse is he to thy gargling and spewing and grips in the bowels!
Frequent gargling of the throat and mouth, with a solution of lactic acid, strong enough to taste sour, will help to keep the parts clean, and correct the foul breath. If there is great prostration, with the nasal passage affected, or hoarseness and difficult breathing, a physician should be called at once.
"The hair is so fine like gold, brown gold." With many a sigh and groan the barber plied his shears, stopping constantly to give vent to his feelings with a shrug of his broad shoulders and deep gutteral mutterings. "Oh, quit gargling your throat, Mike, and get through with the job. The young lady is alive, you see, and expects to get back to the Cedars in time for breakfast," said Ned.
He called to see a doctor, who examined him thoroughly. "You're troubled with your throat, you say?" said the doctor. "Aye, aye, sir," said the sailor. "Have you ever tried gargling it with salt and water?" asked the doctor. The mine-sweeper groaned. "I should say so!" he said. "I've been torpedoed seven times!" A British soldier was walking down the Strand one day.
He dressed silently, but she could hear him tiptoeing about, and finally lay with her hands clenched against the gargling noises that came through the closed door of the bathroom. At last she was conscious that, fully dressed, he was standing beside her, looking down. She could tell by the aroma of mouth wash. "Lilly?" he said, in a coarse whisper. She continued to simulate sleep. "Lilly!"
I was so busy helping to push the boat into deep water that I didn't think any more about the fellow who dived, only I supposed he must have turned back. I heard the fellows shouting, but I didn't pay any attention. Out on the lake I could hear the voice now calling help, and it sounded creepy, like a person trying to call while he's gargling. Doc said, "It's all up with him; hurry, anyway."
Again and much louder came the rat-tat-tat. We all gazed expectantly at the closed door. Glancing at Holmes, I saw his face turn rigid, and he leaned forward in intense excitement. Then suddenly came a low guggling, gargling sound, and a brisk drumming upon woodwork. Holmes sprang frantically across the room and pushed at the door. It was fastened on the inner side.
