K t CHALLENrfb OF 14 V I z x \ WARWICK DEEPING

SYNOPSIS Dr. John Welfe. old Dr. Montague Thrcadgold's assistant, is stunned at the unsanitary conditions he finds in the smug little town of Navestock. Wolfe realizes his greatest fight in ridding the town of pollution will be in overcoming the resentful attitude of the people themselves who seem perfectly satisfied with their mode of living* He encounters his first obstacle in the person of Jasper Turrell, the brewer, who objects to Wolfe taking a sample of his well water for analysis. Undaunted by opposition, Wolfe continues his researches and prepares a map of the town's un- j sanitary areas. The one bright spot in Navestock is the home of Mrs. Mary Mascail where Wolfe is always sure of a welcome. He is exceptionally fond of Mrs. Maseall’s young daughter. Jess. Wolfe is summoned to the home of elderly Miss Perfrement. who feigns heart attacks to attract attention. CHAPTER FIFTEEN Wolfe made a beginning. “Will you let me see what I can do for you?” “It’s my heart I’m dying. Eliza, I’m dying. Where is Dr. Threadgold?" Wolfe imprisoned Miss Perfrement’s wrist She gave a rebellious squirm and then went rigid, but Wolfe was able to feel her pulse. “Now. my dear madam!” “Eliza, Pm dying!” The gaunt maid came to Wolfe'* elbow. “D’you think, sir, you understand Miss Perfrement’s case?” “Kindly keep quiet a moment " Eliza stared and knitted up her black eyebrows, but Wolfe’s tone had smothered her officiousness. Dr. Threadgold w a s a very different sort of man. He seas always polite to Miss Perfrement’s maid. “How often does your mistress have these attacks?” “Very often.” “Thank you. Now, Miss Perfrement, I shall want to examine your chest. If you will let your maid unfasten your bodice.” “Sir!” Miss Perfrement stiffened. “Sir. Dr. Threadgold never — Eliza, my smelling bottle." “Very well; 1 dare say 1 can manage without.” Miss Perfrement’s maid stroked her mistress’s hair, and looked , down at Wolfe with sceptical con- ' tempt. Dr. Threadgold could always manage matters without all I this fussing. He had only to look at a patient, and to listen sympathetically to a vivid description of the symptoms in order to discover what was wrong. Wolfe stood up and looked steadily at Miss Perfrement “1 can assure you that there is no cause for alarm.” "I’m dying. I know I'm dying! My heart’s turning over and over!” “My dear madam—it Is not You are worrying yourself into a panic. Will you give your mistress a tumblerful of hot water, and send round for some medicine?” The gaunt maid looked shocked. Hot water, indeed! A wail came from the arm-chair. “Send for dear Dr. Threadgold. dear. good, clever. Dr. Threadgold!” “You don't realise, sir. how ill Miss Perfrement is." "1 beg your pardon. I shall be obliged if you will follow my in- ■ structions." “1 shall do nothing of the kind. I sir. You ain't grasping Mis* Perj (cement's case.” Wolfe looked at the woman, and I then at her mittre**. He was not tempted to dissemble the truth, and

to give honey and humbug where I asafoetida was needed. He and Miss I < Perfrement were better apart. “I will send out and see if Dr. ThreadgoM can be found,” “Do so. sir. I should think you had better, sir.” And Wolfe took up his hat and left them. Dr. Threadgold kept the midday meal waiting for more than an hour. He had been caught on the way home and hurried in to minister to Miss Priscilla Perfrement in her anguish. At the dinner table Threadgold appeared perturbed and testy. He contradicted his wife without sweetening the contradiction, looked at Wolfe severely over the rims of his spectacles, and talked with pompous irritability on the responsibilities of public men. He glanced at Wolfe as they pushed back their chairs. “For what we have received may the Lord make us truly thankful. My dear, tell the cook not to send up onions. Mr. Wolfe, 1 have a few words to say to you in the consult-ing-room.” Wolfe went, following the twinkle of his employer’s stout little legs. Threadgold was solemn and sententious. He was slightly afraid of Wolfe, and his nervousness made him prance. “What did you say. sir. to Miss Perfrement this morning? You seemed to have treated her with extreme brusqueness. She was greatly upsm." "I told her the truth.” "What do you mean by the truth? Do you know that Miss Perfrement I* subject to heart attacks?" "It was not a heart attack this morning, sir. And yet her maid told me it was typical " “Indeed, indeed. And what do you suggest. ? ’’ "Miss Perfrement appears to be a lady who likes little scenes and has a rather foolish thirst for sympathy.” Dr. Threadgold'* white waistcoat was like a great, round, scandalised countenance. ; “Do you mean to say. Mr. Wolfe, that ycu told Mist Parfrement she; was a fooil"

' “I told her that there was no cause for alarm. And she did not 'appear satisfied.” "No!” “I suppose Oh, well, I think you had better warn me, sir, against such cases.” Threadgold strutted irritably across the room. “Mr. Wolfe, sir, when shall I teach you tact! Tact is the one thing that a doctor must cultivate. It is one of the essentials.” "I quite understand you.” “I must insist upon your using proper discretion. And by the way, there is another matter about which I wish to speak. We are using more drugs than usual. 1 see that two large orders have gone out to Murchison and Company in the last three months. We have never used anything like the quantity before." Wolfe stood like a watchful, silent spirit that busies itself with observing petty things. “I have given what was necessary. sir." “No doubt. But I see you have a liking for the more expensive preparations. Probably you are ignorant of the relative cost, and you have dispensed away gallons of tinctures. It is unnecessary extravagance. In most cases the simple preparations are just as efficacious, and I can’t afford to pour expensive medicines down the throats of paup of half the town." “I have only given what I considered right. I suppose, sir. you don’t want me to withhold the prop, er drugs?" Threadgold flared up. “Mr. Wolfe, sir, you misunderstand me. 1 am a gentleman and a Christian. But sheer waste, the needless using of expensive preparations!" “I will try to exert my tact, air." Threadgold glanced at him. and suddenly became deflated like a child's balloon pricked with a pin. “We will say no more, Mr. Wolfe we will say no more. You have a very clumsy touch, sir. You will have to lighten it in order to suejceed in general practice.” *l4 Be CeatmowD 'W. Robert M Mcßride *rI Itotot b, Kul< Feature.

The Comforts of the American Home I IT IS a well-known fact that, home for home, the American household has more comforts and conveniences than that of any other nation. In foreign lands the modernized dwelling is found only in the better sections of the larger cities. In America, even in remote rural districts, you find the radio, the vacuum cleaner, washing machines up-to-date heating systems, telephones and numberless labor-saving appliances. There is a well-kept look about residence, store or outbuildings with an atmosphere of prosperity and content. Did you ever stop to realize why this is so; how this condition was brought about? a due to advertising. And a big share of the credit belongs to newspaper advertising. Stop and think how many of the foods you eat, the ings xou wear and other articles entering into your adv7rU^menV° U f ’ rSt heard ° f through nfcWß P aper then realize what a P art they do play, » r should play, m your daily life. iariv^ 3 ? a(^v y r t’ sc, oents in the newspapers regu* Thlvm h ° rOUgh,y ’ ifyouare not already doing *>• hey mean more to you than you can tell.
