Already this "new scientific course

The Doctor considers it his religous

humanity to donate his infallible

Otrered freely, is enough tocomend

of the great chemist making!
the proposition.
He has proved the dreaded con-j

beyond any doubt.
There will be no mb take in sending!
the mistake will be in overlooking i
