Fancy being ill of fever with nothing to take but chlorodyne and quinine if men were left to themselves they would live on chlorodyne and quinine and no one round you but horrible natives! They say the Andaman islanders are most disgusting wretches and, anyhow, they can scarcely make good nurses, not having the necessary training. And just for people in England to have orchids!"
And the little phial of chlorodyne was put back among the cobwebs and forgotten. Down at the Vicarage the Vicar was wrangling with his youngest daughter. For the third time Alice declared that she was not well and that she didn't want her milk. "Whether you want it or not you've got to drink it," said the Vicar. Alice took the glass in her lap and looked at it.
When he came back, he showed Bertie a stick of dynamite attached to a fish hook. Now it happens that a paper-wrapped bottle of chlorodyne with a piece of harmless fuse projecting can fool anybody. It fooled Bertie, and it fooled the natives.
