"You can't run on my race track," he exclaimed as he started for the depot; "that last race was crooked and you stood in with the dope mixer." I watched him down the hill until he disappeared in the station, then, sad at heart, I trudged back to the old homestead that had caused all my trouble.
From this the wine is drawn by a ladle holding about as much as a sherry-glass, and a certain number of such "glasses" are poured into each cup according to the bidding of the umpire. While being poured into the "mixer" the wine is passed through a strainer and in the hot weather the strainer would be filled with snow brought down from the nearest mountains and artificially preserved.
Consequently he immediately evaporated to all intents and purposes and was seen no more. The new physician put in charge was a different breed entirely, a man who had the authentic gift and passion for healing which the born doctor always possesses, be he Christian or heathen, gypsy herb mixer or ten thousand dollar specialist.
But there were still cross-cuts along where he travelled through which he might yet regain the pathway of usefulness without disturbing the slumbering Miracles. This man was short and compactly built. He had an oblique, dead eye, like that of a sting-ray, and the moustache of a cocktail mixer.
"Is that your new hen house?" he heard the stout one inquire of his aunt, as he stopped the engine on the mixer, and she looked over in Bob's direction. Bob had again filled the drum and was watching the mixing of the concrete a few moments later, when he heard someone behind him and turned around.
Despite their resolution to be democratic they divided into two sets: the men with dress-clothes and the men without. Though he was, almost frankly, out for social conquest, he sought Paul Riesling first. He found him alone, neat and silent.

I led him below, hardly daring at the moment to confess my own responsibility for his fears. Another time, I thought, we might chat of it. Belknap-Jackson with his wife and the Mixer awaited us. His lordship was presented, and I excused myself. "Mrs. Pettengill, his lordship the Earl of Brinstead," had been the host's speech of presentation to the Mixer.
"Come, and I'll show you," said Edith, and Bob turned the concrete mixer over to Tony and they went over to the old orchard, back of the smokehouse. In almost the exact center of this three-acre plot, a tree had decayed and fallen several years before, and a young apple tree had been planted to take its place.
"We'll think about his case," said the Mixer, taking her own second toddy, whereupon the two fell to talking of other things, chiefly of their cattle plantations and the price of beef-stock, which then seemed to be six and one half, though what this meant I had no notion.
I sometimes wonder why, with a thousand islands to choose from, the official salad mixer of the average hotel always picks the wrong one. I kept on. The thing proved magically easy of accomplishment.
