"
To
save
us
—
nothing
,
"
said
Challenger
.
"
To
prolong
our
lives
a
few
hours
and
thus
to
see
the
evolution
of
this
mighty
tragedy
before
we
are
actually
involved
in
it
—
that
may
prove
to
be
within
my
powers
.
I
have
taken
certain
steps
—
—
"
"
The
oxygen
?
"
"
Exactly
.
The
oxygen
.
"
"
But
what
can
oxygen
effect
in
the
face
of
a
poisoning
of
the
ether
?
There
is
not
a
greater
difference
in
quality
between
a
brick
-
bat
and
a
gas
than
there
is
between
oxygen
and
ether
.
They
are
different
planes
of
matter
.
They
cannot
impinge
upon
one
another
.
Come
,
Challenger
,
you
could
not
defend
such
a
proposition
.
"
"
My
good
Summerlee
,
this
etheric
poison
is
most
certainly
influenced
by
material
agents
.
We
see
it
in
the
methods
and
distribution
of
the
outbreak
.
We
should
not
a
priori
have
expected
it
,
but
it
is
undoubtedly
a
fact
.
Hence
I
am
strongly
of
opinion
that
a
gas
like
oxygen
,
which
increases
the
vitality
and
the
resisting
power
of
the
body
,
would
be
extremely
likely
to
delay
the
action
of
what
you
have
so
happily
named
the
daturon
.
It
may
be
that
I
am
mistaken
,
but
I
have
every
confidence
in
the
correctness
of
my
reasoning
"
"
Well
,
"
said
Lord
John
,
"
if
we
’
ve
got
to
sit
suckin
’
at
those
tubes
like
so
many
babies
with
their
bottles
,
I
’
m
not
takin
’
any
.
"
"
There
will
be
no
need
for
that
,
"
Challenger
answered
.
"
We
have
made
arrangements
—
it
is
to
my
wife
that
you
chiefly
owe
it
—
that
her
boudoir
shall
be
made
as
airtight
as
is
practicable
.
With
matting
and
varnished
paper
.
"
"
Good
heavens
,
Challenger
,
you
don
’
t
suppose
you
can
keep
out
ether
with
varnished
paper
?
"
"
Really
,
my
worthy
friend
,
you
are
a
trifle
perverse
in
missing
the
point
.
It
is
not
to
keep
out
the
ether
that
we
have
gone
to
such
trouble
.
It
is
to
keep
in
the
oxygen
.
I
trust
that
if
we
can
ensure
an
atmosphere
hyper
-
oxygenated
to
a
certain
point
,
we
may
be
able
to
retain
our
senses
.
I
had
two
tubes
of
the
gas
and
you
have
brought
me
three
more
.
It
is
not
much
,
but
it
is
something
.
