"I wonder if this is what they call an ingrowing toe-nail?" said Hirst, examining the big toe on his left foot. "I flit from branch to branch," continued Hewet. "The world is profoundly pleasant."
Nobody would have knowed him for the same man that called the crookedest gamblers on the Yukon, and bolted newspaper men raw. He had ingrowing language. It oozed out through his pores till he dreened like a harvest hand. I'd have had her in my arms in two winks, so that all hell and a policeman couldn't have busted my holt till she'd said she loved me.
"I'm glad nobody bought me, for I'd rather be in here safe and warm than in somebody's arms." Pickles's turn came next. He had an ingrowing toe nail, which sometimes made him grouchy and sour, so he was dubbed Pickles. He looked and acted like his name now.
Carl by no means catalogued all the details, but he did get the effect of ingrowing propriety. It is not certain that he thought the room in bad taste.
