Once, when he cut the Dorset off, he had bitten through a capsule of quinine; in addition, two of his warriors had partaken of a white powder and laid down and died very violently in a very short time. No; he did not believe in drugs. But the liquids from bottles, the cool-flaming youth-givers and warm-glowing dream-makers.

I would mask these effluvia, stifle them under a powerful, tenacious odour, which would take complete possession of the sense-organ and neutralise the less powerful impression. I began by sprinkling naphthaline in the room intended for the reception of the males that evening. Beside the female, inside the wire-gauze cover, I placed a large capsule full of the same substance.

It is, moreover, true and no legend that the better horses receive at birth their family-tree, in which their parents, and often their grandfathers, are mentioned, and which they carry through life, generally in a triangular capsule, by a string around their neck.

"Do you give kantab at the hospital, too?" gasped "Long," looking more scared than ever. "We do," said the steward grimly. "But we medical men call it quinine."

"Well, he made a sort of yammering noise," said Billie, "but that only made him look sillier." "Deuced good!" chuckled Sir Mallaby. "Funniest thing I ever heard in my life!" gurgled Mr. Bennett, swallowing a digestive capsule. "May have been half-witted," suggested Mr. Mortimer. Sam leaned across the table with a stern set face.
