"I can not find the doctor," Flossy had reported in despair. "He has gone to Mayville, but Mr. Roberts will be here in a minute with a remedy, and he is going right over to Mayville for the doctor." "Don't let him, I beg," said Marion, who was herself again. "There is nothing more formidable than a spoonful of your hair-oil. I don't know but the poor child needs an emetic to get rid of that.
"Will you exchange the first fifty thousand of those notes against the notes of Monsieur Popinot, here present, less the discount, of course?" Gigonnet took off the terrible green cap which seemed to have been born on him, pointed to his skull, denuded of hair and of the color of fresh butter, made his usual Voltairean grimace, and said: "You wish to pay me in hair-oil; have I any use for it?"
"’Let him ask for "salmon esplinade," let him ask for "chicken marine-go," let him ask for plum-pudding, let him ask for hair-oil or throat lozengers, this yere outfit calls his bluff,’ says Billy Ames, who owns the ’twin star’ outfit and is anticipatin’ this peer as a guest.
What little things decide the fate of nations and men! This was a race whose salutation was not nose-rubbing, but smelling, and the American had not in our worst straits failed to keep his hair sleek with hair-oil, verbena scented, and to perfume himself daily with new-mown hay or heliotrope. Thus was he of goodly savour to the chief, and the eyes of the savage grew bright.
In an incredibly short space of time she examined all his outlying pockets, drawers, and letters; she inspected his socks and handkerchiefs in the top drawers; and on the dressing-table, his razors, shaving-strop, and hair-oil.
Just think of one angel hunting another and saying: "There goes another button." I cannot believe it. There must be a mistake somewhere or somehow. Do you believe the real God if there is one ever killed a man for making hair-oil?
And how about all the to-morrows that stretched along in dreary perspective before her? Would they also, all of them, hold nothing but those same two persons? Nothing but an endless vista of butter-making and pork-killing on one hand, and hair-oil scented with cloves on the other? It would be better far to die, if she could die; but Diana knew she could not.
I picked it up with an interest that, however, soon abated. There was no scent of the roses to cling to it still, not even of hair-oil. No bent or twist in its rigid angles betrayed any trait of its wearer's character. I tried to think that it might have been "Mariar's."
The three young fellows devoured their dinner like lions, and drank like lords to the future success of Cephalic Oil. "The oil is getting into my head," said Finot. Gaudissart poured out a series of jokes and puns upon hats and heads, and hair and hair-oil, etc. In the midst of Homeric laughter a knock resounded, and was heard, in spite of an uproar of toasts and reciprocal congratulations.
He took Presson by the arm, and swung him hospitably in at the big door of "The Barracks." "That's too rough too rough, that kind of talk, Thelismer," protested the State chairman. Thornton swung away from him and went to the window of the living-room and gazed out on his constituents. "You can't handle voters the way you used to you've got to hair-oil 'em these days."
