If I knew that I'd know who stole the body. But he was drugged by means of a perfume which is the same as that impregnating the devil-stick."，"Yes. I intend to have Dr. Etwald arrested."，"I know, I know!" broke in Dido, impatiently. "But dat not to do wid me. De poison in your debble-stick."Battersea drew back and began to whimper again.

"I don't know for certain, Mr. Alymer, but I can guess.","What does it matter if we do miss the train?" she insisted. "We can take the early one in the morning.

"How can you say such a thing? Look here, Etwald," and he laid the stick on the table. "No, don't touch it, man," he added, hastily, "there is plenty of venom in it yet.

It was a wild night, and full of the vague horrors of death and mystery.,Mrs. Dallas looked uneasily at her medical attendant.,I have contempt for that sort of a woman, and I love Ruth!,Patricia gave an exclamation.
