“
Why
,
hardly
,
”
he
answered
,
leaning
back
luxuriously
in
his
arm
-
chair
,
and
sending
up
thick
blue
wreaths
from
his
pipe
.
“
For
example
,
observation
shows
me
that
you
have
been
to
the
Wigmore
Street
Post
-
Office
this
morning
,
but
deduction
lets
me
know
that
when
there
you
dispatched
a
telegram
.
”
“
Right
!
”
said
I
.
“
Right
on
both
points
!
But
I
confess
that
I
don
’
t
see
how
you
arrived
at
it
.
It
was
a
sudden
impulse
upon
my
part
,
and
I
have
mentioned
it
to
no
one
.
”
“
It
is
simplicity
itself
,
”
he
remarked
,
chuckling
at
my
surprise
,
—
“
so
absurdly
simple
that
an
explanation
is
superfluous
;
and
yet
it
may
serve
to
define
the
limits
of
observation
and
of
deduction
.
Observation
tells
me
that
you
have
a
little
reddish
mould
adhering
to
your
instep
.
Just
opposite
the
Seymour
Street
Office
they
have
taken
up
the
pavement
and
thrown
up
some
earth
which
lies
in
such
a
way
that
it
is
difficult
to
avoid
treading
in
it
in
entering
.
The
earth
is
of
this
peculiar
reddish
tint
which
is
found
,
as
far
as
I
know
,
nowhere
else
in
the
neighbourhood
.
So
much
is
observation
.
The
rest
is
deduction
.
”
“
How
,
then
,
did
you
deduce
the
telegram
?
”
“
Why
,
of
course
I
knew
that
you
had
not
written
a
letter
,
since
I
sat
opposite
to
you
all
morning
.
I
see
also
in
your
open
desk
there
that
you
have
a
sheet
of
stamps
and
a
thick
bundle
of
post
-
cards
.
What
could
you
go
into
the
post
-
office
for
,
then
,
but
to
send
a
wire
?
Eliminate
all
other
factors
,
and
the
one
which
remains
must
be
the
truth
.
”
“
In
this
case
it
certainly
is
so
,
”
I
replied
,
after
a
little
thought
.
“
The
thing
,
however
,
is
,
as
you
say
,
of
the
simplest
.
Would
you
think
me
impertinent
if
I
were
to
put
your
theories
to
a
more
severe
test
?
”
“
On
the
contrary
,
”
he
answered
,
“
it
would
prevent
me
from
taking
a
second
dose
of
cocaine
.
I
should
be
delighted
to
look
into
any
problem
which
you
might
submit
to
me
.
”
“
I
have
heard
you
say
that
it
is
difficult
for
a
man
to
have
any
object
in
daily
use
without
leaving
the
impress
of
his
individuality
upon
it
in
such
a
way
that
a
trained
observer
might
read
it
.
Now
,
I
have
here
a
watch
which
has
recently
come
into
my
possession
.
Would
you
have
the
kindness
to
let
me
have
an
opinion
upon
the
character
or
habits
of
the
late
owner
?
”
I
handed
him
over
the
watch
with
some
slight
feeling
of
amusement
in
my
heart
,
for
the
test
was
,
as
I
thought
,
an
impossible
one
,
and
I
intended
it
as
a
lesson
against
the
somewhat
dogmatic
tone
which
he
occasionally
assumed
.
