Never
mind
,
"
said
he
,
chuckling
to
himself
.
"
The
question
now
is
about
hoemoglobin
.
No
doubt
you
see
the
significance
of
this
discovery
of
mine
?
"
"
It
is
interesting
,
chemically
,
no
doubt
,
"
I
answered
,
"
but
practically
--
--
"
"
Why
,
man
,
it
is
the
most
practical
medico-legal
discovery
for
years
.
Do
n't
you
see
that
it
gives
us
an
infallible
test
for
blood
stains
.
Come
over
here
now
!
"
He
seized
me
by
the
coat-sleeve
in
his
eagerness
,
and
drew
me
over
to
the
table
at
which
he
had
been
working
.
"
Let
us
have
some
fresh
blood
,
"
he
said
,
digging
a
long
bodkin
into
his
finger
,
and
drawing
off
the
resulting
drop
of
blood
in
a
chemical
pipette
.
"
Now
,
I
add
this
small
quantity
of
blood
to
a
litre
of
water
.
You
perceive
that
the
resulting
mixture
has
the
appearance
of
pure
water
.
The
proportion
of
blood
can
not
be
more
than
one
in
a
million
.
I
have
no
doubt
,
however
,
that
we
shall
be
able
to
obtain
the
characteristic
reaction
.
"
As
he
spoke
,
he
threw
into
the
vessel
a
few
white
crystals
,
and
then
added
some
drops
of
a
transparent
fluid
.
In
an
instant
the
contents
assumed
a
dull
mahogany
colour
,
and
a
brownish
dust
was
precipitated
to
the
bottom
of
the
glass
jar
.
"
Ha
!
ha
!
"
he
cried
,
clapping
his
hands
,
and
looking
as
delighted
as
a
child
with
a
new
toy
.
"
What
do
you
think
of
that
?
"
"
It
seems
to
be
a
very
delicate
test
,
"
I
remarked
.
"
Beautiful
!
beautiful
!
The
old
Guiacum
test
was
very
clumsy
and
uncertain
.
So
is
the
microscopic
examination
for
blood
corpuscles
.
The
latter
is
valueless
if
the
stains
are
a
few
hours
old
.
Now
,
this
appears
to
act
as
well
whether
the
blood
is
old
or
new
.
Had
this
test
been
invented
,
there
are
hundreds
of
men
now
walking
the
earth
who
would
long
ago
have
paid
the
penalty
of
their
crimes
.
"
"
Indeed
!
"
I
murmured
.
"
Criminal
cases
are
continually
hinging
upon
that
one
point
.
A
man
is
suspected
of
a
crime
months
perhaps
after
it
has
been
committed
.
His
linen
or
clothes
are
examined
,
and
brownish
stains
discovered
upon
them
.
Are
they
blood
stains
,
or
mud
stains
,
or
rust
stains
,
or
fruit
stains
,
or
what
are
they
?
That
is
a
question
which
has
puzzled
many
an
expert
,
and
why
?
Because
there
was
no
reliable
test
.
Now
we
have
the
Sherlock
Holmes
'
test
,
and
there
will
no
longer
be
any
difficulty
.
"
His
eyes
fairly
glittered
as
he
spoke
,
and
he
put
his
hand
over
his
heart
and
bowed
as
if
to
some
applauding
crowd
conjured
up
by
his
imagination
.
