The old man was surrounded by his equally aged counsellors, and the whole deputation squatted ceremonially upon their haunches about him. The store had been stripped of all supplies. The shelves were bare and only a litter of packings remained to mark the end of the chemist's great enterprise. Steve addressed the chief through An-ina without relaxing his authority.
Camphor and oil of lavender were bought at the chemist's, and also a little scent sachet labelled 'Violettes de Parme'. They took the things home and found Cyril still on guard. When they had knocked and the golden voice of the Phoenix had said 'Come in, they went in. There lay the carpet or what was left of it and on it lay an egg, exactly like the one out of which the Phoenix had been hatched.
To him life was less a problem than an experiment, and this last act, this nameless repudiation of the laws of family life, was like the sign of a chemist's activity. As she stood on the mountain-top her breath suddenly came fast, and she caught her bosom with angry hands. "Carnac poor Carnac!" she exclaimed. What would the world say?
"To think of your friend Plott...! I've telephoned for a messenger boy to go to the chemist's." "You're at liberty to call the man a doctor," answered Mr. Prohack. "And I'm at liberty to call him a fine character actor." "I knew the moment you sat up it was jaundice," said Mrs. Prohack. "Well," said Mr. Prohack. "I lay you five to one I don't have jaundice. Not that you'd ever pay me if you lost."
"That's a mere detail," remarked Drillford impatiently. "These chaps that mooch about, as Hyde was doing, pick up all sorts of odds and ends. He may have pinched them from a chemist's shop. Anyway, there's the fact and we'll hang him on it! You'll see!" "We shall never see anything of the sort!" said Viner. "You're on the wrong tack, Inspector. Let me put two or three things to your intelligence.
You can decide according to the effect produced, but first you must have a tonic, to brace you for the effort. I've a new prescription, and we are going to Edgware Road to get it this very hour." "Quinine, I suppose. Esther and the boys can get it at the chemist's, but really it will do roe no good." "I'm sure it wouldn't. Mine is a hundred times more powerful." "Iron? I can't take it.
Bunting went downstairs, and as she did so she took herself wordlessly, ruthlessly to task, but she did not face even in her inmost heart the strange tenors and tremors which had so shaken her. She only repeated to herself again and again, "I've got upset that's what I've done," and then she spoke aloud, "I must get myself a dose at the chemist's next time I'm out. That's what I must do."
Pym's letters were all addressed from the Dubb of Prosen Farm, near Thrums, N.B., to different advertisers, care of a London agency, and were Tommy's answers to the "wants" in a London newspaper which had found its way to the far North. "X Y Z" was in need of a chemist's assistant, and from his earliest years, said one of the letters, chemistry had been the study of studies for T. Sandys.
The nurse approached her, and passed over her lips the feather of a quill dipped in a cordial of her own invention, which she had just been to fetch at the chemist's. Buvat could not support this spectacle; he recommended the mother and child to the care of the nurse, and left.
