"Indeed, ptomaines are present probably to a greater or less extent in every organ which is submitted to the toxicologist for examination.
And yet, even in this dry as dust title of a scientific communication from a distinguished toxicologist there was some sinister significance. It was the letter of a great chemist, who demonstrated therein the fallibility of all tests in relation to a certain poison.
Corfield was a clever toxicologist; that Leam had stayed there during her father's honeymoon; and that her stepmother had died on the night of her arrival. "And your average Englishman calls himself a creature with brains and inductive powers!" was his unspoken commentary on the finding of the coroner's jury and the verdict of the coroner.
Granting all this, we must not expect too much from "science" as distinguished from common experience. There are ten thousand experimenters without special apparatus for every one in the laboratory.

Vandeloup saw the paragraph which gave this information, and it disturbed him very much.
Blanche wandered in the land of meditation, and had her little plot all cut and dry as the toy Swiss clock on the low mantel struck up a lively waltz preparatory to striking eleven. Ere the last silvery chime had ceased vibrating, the door of the boudoir opened and Dr. Guy Oleander walked in. "Good-morning, Mrs. Walraven," said the toxicologist, briskly. "You sent for me. What's the matter?"
Though it is so little known as yet that its manufacturer must be an expert toxicologist with special knowledge." "Have you seen many cases of its administration?" I asked eagerly. "Yes. Quite a number," was the old Professor's reply.
"The woman in question was born in 1884 at Number 45 Rue des Etuves, in Montpellier, and was the daughter of one Doctor Rigaud, a noted toxicologist of the Faculty of Medicine, and curator of the University Library.
