whose leaves the devil hid, accord
ing to ancient legend, until the
Angel Gabriel drove him forth, was
used regularly as a fever remedy
in the days Of our childhood, but
now no more. Strychnine was the
most popular drug when I was a
young practitioner, given univer-
sally as a tonic, but it, too, fell out
Of fashion. Lobelia was popular
with the pioneer practitioners of
the west, the standby Of the cleo
tics, as an emetic to cause vomit-
ing, but the practice Of emesis has
passed with the passing Of the
electic school. It's use has recently
been revived as a cure Of the to-
bacco habit, but as it exerts it's eff
fects by causing vomiting, it is not
likely to be popular.
But the great drugs that always
are necessary go on without any
real ebb or flow Of their popular
lty.
Opium, and it's derivatives-mor-
phine and codeine-no one could
practice medicine without it. It
has been with us a long time:
Dioscorides, the Greek physician of
the second century, instructed his
disciples how to gather it. Some
cut the poppy heads with the
leaves, squeeze them through a
press and rubbing them in a NOR
tar, from them into troches. This
is called meconium and is weaker
than the opus. But whoever de-
sires to gather the juice must pro-
coed thus: After the heads are
moistened with dew, let them be
cut round the asterisk with a
knife, but not penetrate through
them, and from the sides cut
straight lines in the surface, and
draw off the tear that flows into a
shell. And come again not long

CHAPTER 90

or COURSE, Adams was
drunk when he inveigled Tim into
the billiard game, and that was
all there was to it. He had al
wavs known Adams drank more
than was good for him. 1t was
simply that the tragedy at The
wilderness had unsettled the man,
and he had taken his foot off the
brake. Perhaps he had been
genuinely devoted to Esther; it was
possible, he had always treated
her with the greatest possible re-
Well, Tim had been indulgent to
a point most employers would con-
slider fantastic: he would now
have to be pulled up sharply, II
necessary, dismissed.
Tim discovered an unaccount-
able reluctance to call Adams
over the Goals. Why was that?
He was not afraid Of the man.
There was no conceivable reason
for him to be. Yet tonight he had
behaved as though he were afraid.
He had almost fawned on him,
taken his yelled insults without
even a protest. The fellow would
be thinking he was indispensable.
Well. he wasn't, not by a long
chalk, and the fact would have to
be made pretty plain. Tomor-
Tim turned over, and presently
fell into a fitful sleep.
The trouble about putting OF
things till tomorrow is that it be-
comes a habit. The next day
adams was his normal self-will-
ing, alert, almost slavishly re-
spectful. But not cowed; he gave
no sign of repentance for his i'm
pertinence. The thing might just
have not happened. Tim, wonder
ing whether excess of alcohol had
mot produced lacuna in the mans
mind, so that he honestly had no
recollection of the evening before,
kept putting off the moment for
speaking to him.
] In his heart he knew such a
theory was NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. had
been far from being as drunk as
all that, but the hypothesis served
as an excuse, coinciding with his
own inner desire. He kept telling
himself that Adams was extreme
ly useful, his loss would be real
one; he was a sensitive man in g
very curious state of mind, and
must be given every chance OF
pulling himself round by the help
of his own good sense.
So three or four days went by
until it became clearly too late to
SAY anything. Everything seemed
Ito be back to normal, and Tim
had reason to hope that the situa,
ton was Fighting itself. The only
incident in the least disturbing
was on the Wednesday morning
when Adams came up in the
surgery before the first patient
had arrived, and asked leave tt
take the afternoon off. The re-
quest was neither unprecedentet

steepest part OF the lane, when he
was startled by sudden commo-
ton behind him. A flying figure
on a bicycle dashed past him at
terrific speed, missing him by
inches as he jumped to the side.
BY the light of his torch Tim
recognized Adams, who half
turned his head to look at him
with an ugly grin, as he broad
sided round the next bend.
There was something extraordi-
narily malicious about that grin.
Tim reached home shaken and
white with rage. The wilderness
was shut up apart from the front,
door, which had been left UNI
chained and unbolted for him.
Adams had gone to bed. For the
moment Tim toyed with the idea
of seeking him out at once, while
his wrath was still fierce upon
him. But such a course was
against all his instincts.
"But tomorrow" he said to him
self as he undressed. Tomorrow,
without fail"
1T want a word with you,
Adams" said Tim, as he entered
the surgery next morning. 'Not
now, though, there's not time.
Come in here at half past IL, or
whenever I've got rid Of Mrs.
Marchant."
20. K, sir, I'll be along" Adams
replied breezily. Matter of fact,
wanted to speak to you too"
Tim felt relieved at having COM
mitted himself, and at having pro-
cured a brief respite. He had
found it necessary to fight down
q strong Discrimination to bring
himself to the point. That devilish
grin, seen dinly at the limit Of the
range of his electric torch, seemed
in the morning light a thing fam
cied. a picture twisted out Of shape
in the distorted mirror Of his own
Imagination, already overcharged
with suspicion in this particular
direction.
It was only the recollection Of
his anger, an unwonted emotion
which must have had a solid oc-
casion, which prevented him from
taking the easy line Of dismissing
the whole thing as a fantasy. But
| at the least, he argued, Adams
had by gross recklessness come
within an inch Of running him
down, and the time was ripe for
| q caft1nYnanf
He was aloof with his patients
this morning. He was finished
with the last Of them by a quarter
| to 1. 1t being Saturday, he had
avoided engagements which would
keep him back late, though as 1T
happened he had the day before
received a message from Alma
postponing their usual meeting to
; Sunday.
"Pd like to talk to you now, sir,
| if you're sure you're quite ready -
said Adams with suspicious DILL
ness, as he came into the surgery
after seeing Mrs. Marchant out.

uor unreasonable, but there was q
quality of assurance in the way OF
asking that Tim did not altogether
like.

thing special on?" He felt ne
owed it to himself to ask the ques-
ton.
"Pd like to see the cup-tie re-
plav. sir" Adams replied fairly
enough. tits only qualifying
round, but our boys have never
got so far"
Eyes, of course, 1 remember.
All right"
.Thanks." Adams acknowledge
ment was perfunctory. There was
something unsettled about his
manner. It seemed to oscillate un-
certainly between the toadying
that was habitual to him, and the
familiarity which he had recently
permitted himself.
He went to the football match
and afterwards gave Tim a lively
account of it. midway between the
two styles.
"It was pitiful, sir" he said.

cover each other: when one was
beat, both were beat. And as for

make an opening, never got look
in. It was a riot. I don't know
how they managed to draw on Sat-
urday. Think yourself lucky you
didn't go, sir. it'd have made you
sick"
On Friday night Tim decided to
60 to the cinema. He left his car
as usual at Bentwich's garage, but
on returning for it at about 10
o'clock he was told that a fault in
the ignition, which he had asked
to have put right, was giving more
trouble than expected. IF you'll
give me another half-hour, sir, u
said the mechanic, II think l can
straighten it out"
Tim felt disinclined to hang
around; it was a clear starry
night, and he decided to walk
home. He gave instructions fol
the car to be run up to The Will
derness by half past 8 the next
morning, and set off. -
The air was cool and bracing
and he enjoyed the walk. AS he
turned off the high road into the
steep lane, narrow and winding
which led down to The Wilderness
he got out his electric torch. Fol
the lane was in a cutting, tree:

Mercury Has Long History
Another great drug with a long
history is mercury. In one or an
other of it's preparations, it prob
ably is used for more things than
any other drug in medicine. AS
calomel or blue-mass it is ca
thartic. It is a specific for one Of
the chronic infections. AS bichlor-
ide, it is used as a most powerful
antiseptic. AS ammoniated. mer-
curry, it is used in ointments in
skin infections. AS blue ointment
it destroys the crab louise. AS mer-
curic oxide, it is used in ointments
for eye infections-styes, etc. AS
salyrgan, it is the best remedy to
make the kidneys throw Off a
dropsy. That is a great deal for
one drug.
Salicylic acid, or its salts, the
salicylates, are very widely used.
In acute articular rheumatism they
are almost specific. In skin dis
ease, salicylic acid ointment for
athletes foot and innumerable
other things is indispensable. AS
acetic salicylic acid (aspirin to
you) it is used for all kinds of joint
pains, headaches, colds, infections.
backache, muscular rheumatism,
etc.
Other great drugs are: Digitalh

Teller On Road
To Comeback
After 2-Hitter
By LAYTON CARVER

NEW YORK, July 12.-Bob
Teller Of the Cleveland Indians
was regarded as good as new
today and definitely back on the
highway leading to the pitching
pinnacle which he seemed GER
tain to attain until his progress
was halted by a torn arm
muscle a few weeks ago.
A long rest has brought him
back to form, as evidenced by
yesterdays performance when he
held the Detroit Tigers to pair
of hits and struck out four,
Although he walked six men
and lost the game by 8 to 2. his
fireball was working and he
looked again like the prodigy
who came into the majors last
season as one Of the greatest
prospects of these times.
He and Cletus Poffenberger,
rookie southpaw, engaged in a
dramatic duel that was decided in
the ninth when the Indians massed
up double play while the win
ming run scored. Poffenberger
allowed only five hits himself
two of them being homers by Sol
tiers and Trosky.
Tigers In Second
BY beating the indians the
Tigers climbed over the Chicago
White Sox into second place by
margin of three percentage points
with the teams tied for second on
games won and lost basis. The
White Sox slipped when they could
get no better than an even break
with the st. Louis Browns, who
won the opener to l and dropped
the nightcap, 4 to 8.
And with all of that, the Yam.
KEGS increased their league lead to
six full games by beating Wash
ington, 4 to 8, in the opener and
playing to a SIS deadlock in the
nightcap. The opening win was
Lefty Gomez, eleventh for the sea-
son.
The Boston Red Sox took a pair
fro mthe Philadelphia Athletics
8 to 4 and 8 to 2.
Giants Press Cubs
The Giants and Chicago Cubs
continued in a nip-and-tuck battle
for the National League pennant
with the former cutting the Cubs
lead to a single game. The Giants
threat was maintained when they
knocked off the Dodgers twice, IL
to 4 and to /, while the Cubs
were being trimmed by the third
place Pittsburgh Pirates, 3 to 2.
