Emphasizing a Fact.

There are peculiarities, idiosyncrasies of expression, which emphasize and ac- centuate facts. It is not enough to say "he is deaf" We invariably add "as a post" It would appear sufficient to say he Is blind," but we prefer in nearly all cases to admit of no contra diction by announcing that he is stone blind" To be dead" should suffice. Dead as doornail' clinches the fact.
