"Na, na!" he said, seeing the lad eye the bottle, "it's no for you! ye want a' the sma' wit ye ever hed: it's no you 'at has to gallop; ye hae but to stick on! Hae, Susy!" He poured half a tumblerful into a soup-plate, and held it out to the mare, who, never snuffing at it, licked it up greedily, and immediately started of herself at a good pace.
"All of a sudden I remembered that oil in the can; but just as I was puttin' my fingers on the cork my conscience smote me. `Am I goin' to use this oil, I said to myself, `and let my sister-in-law's husband be wrecked for want of it? And then I thought that he wouldn't want it all that night, and perhaps they would buy oil the next day, and so I poured out about a tumblerful of it on the water, and I can just tell you sailormen that you never saw anything act as prompt as that did.
Bah! how thirsty it makes one! Come, Trent, what stake will you have me set up against that other tumblerful of brandy." "No stake that you can offer," Trent answered shortly. "That drop of brandy may stand between us and death. Pluck up your courage, man, and forget for a bit that there is such a thing as drink." Monty frowned and looked stealthily across towards the bottle.
And there, at the back, that window blind stood open. He stared at Signet, as if the beach comber were just discovered. "You are hopeless, my dear sir." "Let us have a drink," he shifted. For Signet he poured out a tumblerful of raw gin. The fellow took it like a man in a daze the daze of a slowly and fiercely solidifying resolution. It shivered in his hand. A habit of greed sucked his lips.
His forced abstemiousness was rendered the more intolerable by the fact that Captain Puffin, hobbling in immediately afterwards, fetched from his locker a large flask full of the required elixir, and proceeded to mix himself a long, strong tumblerful.
Drink a tumblerful of hot water, not less than half an hour before breakfast and eat freely of fruit at that meal. Also partake liberally of good, green vegetables at other meals. Eating whole-wheat bread is of decided assistance, and make it a rule to drink from two to three pints of water each day.
Dan poured out a tumblerful of the wine which the bottle contained, and placed it at the lips of the sufferer. He eagerly drank off the draught, and sank back upon the deck. "He will be better soon. He is all out of breath," said Dan, as he brought one of the cushions from the standing room and put it under the poor man's head.
Into half a tumblerful of water I dropped five or six drops of the two hundredth dilution of that drug, and put a few drops of this medicated water into the poor little thing's mouth." Here the Doctor stopped, knocked the ashes from his pipe, arose and started as if to leave the room. "Hold on, Doctor," cried Fred; "I am very much interested in that baby.
He could not tell, but he feared that at least half the company had taken some portion, more or less. He had himself drunk a tumblerful, and he already felt uncomfortable, with a tightness of the throat, and a burning pain in his inside. I at once flew to my medicinal arms.
He bent his head down against the rope and drank a tumblerful of whiskey at a gulp. Then he called down curses on the men who were about him, and kept it up until they cut him short by jerking away the box from under his feet. A peculiar instance of unconscious, but grim, humor was afforded at Gallegher's execution.
