A very urban point of view with regard to a common rustic occurrence, and yet that language showed the sharp, the inelastic limits of her thought. She was provincial in the extreme; she thought even more narrowly than in the terms of a city; she thought in the terms of an hotel. In proportion as we are confined within the walls of one hostelry or one city or one state, we are provincial.
She was dressed in good plain country clothes, and her felt hat fitted badly because of the thick coils of her hair, brown, streaked with grey. "Will you come this way?" said Esther, holding open the consulting-room door. The three filed past her, Sir Charles walking with a firm if inelastic tread.
As the express train whirled him away from the somewhat inelastic circle of Mrs.
In some parts of the world, as for instance in Spain, where a long-continued effort has been made to develop the animal for interbreeding with the horse, the result shows that the form is relatively inelastic. It is doubtful if any conceivable amount of care would develop such variations as the horse now exhibits.
The Proconsul, within certain narrow and entirely inelastic limits, would merely govern the government. Unfortunately, Obray, Count Erskyll, appeared not to understand this completely. It was his impression that he was a torch-bearer of Imperial civilization, or something equally picturesque and metaphorical.

Gwen glanced at him quickly, for his voice was strangely heavy and inelastic, and an unmistakable gloom had settled upon him.

I say elastic cord, and not ribbon, because the elastic ribbon is too strong, and does not sufficiently yield. Girls do not know that they dress too tightly.
Now the average white man, per se, is just as bestial, just as stupid, just as inelastic, just as stagnative, just as retrogressive, as the average savage. But the average white man has a faster pace. The large number of sporting dominants in his society give him the equipment, the organization, and impose the law.
There is little sympathy felt in this world of rhetoric for the silent sufferings of the genteel poor, yet there is no class that deserves a more charitable commiseration. At the best of times, the money which my parents had to spend was an exiguous and an inelastic sum.
"Oh, Père Jerome! I wan' see you so bad, so bad! Mo oulé dit quiç'ose, I godd some' to tell you." The two languages might be more successful than one, she seemed to think. "We had better go back to my parlor," said the priest, in their native tongue. They returned. Madame Delphine's very step was altered, nervous and inelastic. She swung one arm as she walked, and brandished a turkey-tail fan.
