"
You
're
Dr.
Gregg
--
is
that
right
?
"
said
Smith
,
feeling
the
dog
's
head
pin
in
his
tie
.
"
The
constable
--
I
mean
the
consul
,
told
me
you
hung
out
at
this
caravansary
.
My
name
's
Smith
;
and
I
came
in
a
yacht
.
Taking
a
cruise
around
,
looking
at
the
monkeys
and
pineapple-trees
.
Come
inside
and
have
a
drink
,
Doc
.
This
café
looks
on
the
blink
,
but
I
guess
it
can
set
out
something
wet
.
"
"
I
will
join
you
,
sir
,
in
just
a
taste
of
brandy
,
"
said
Dr.
Gregg
,
rising
quickly
.
"
I
find
that
as
a
prophylactic
a
little
brandy
is
almost
a
necessity
in
this
climate
.
"
As
they
turned
to
enter
the
pulperia
a
native
man
,
barefoot
,
glided
noiselessly
up
and
addressed
the
doctor
in
Spanish
.
He
was
yellowish-brown
,
like
an
over-ripe
lemon
;
he
wore
a
cotton
shirt
and
ragged
linen
trousers
girded
by
a
leather
belt
.
His
face
was
like
an
animal
's
,
live
and
wary
,
but
without
promise
of
much
intelligence
.
This
man
jabbered
with
animation
and
so
much
seriousness
that
it
seemed
a
pity
that
his
words
were
to
be
wasted
.
Dr.
Gregg
felt
his
pulse
.
"
You
sick
?
"
he
inquired
.
"
Mi
mujer
está
enferma
en
la
casa
,
"
said
the
man
,
thus
endeavouring
to
convey
the
news
,
in
the
only
language
open
to
him
,
that
his
wife
lay
ill
in
her
palm-thatched
hut
.
The
doctor
drew
a
handful
of
capsules
filled
with
a
white
powder
from
his
trousers
pocket
.
He
counted
out
ten
of
them
into
the
native
's
hand
,
and
held
up
his
forefinger
impressively
.
"
Take
one
,
"
said
the
doctor
,
"
every
two
hours
.
"
He
then
held
up
two
fingers
,
shaking
them
emphatically
before
the
native
's
face
.
Next
he
pulled
out
his
watch
and
ran
his
finger
round
its
dial
twice
.
Again
the
two
fingers
confronted
the
patient
's
nose
.
"
Two
--
two
--
two
hours
,
"
repeated
the
doctor
.
"
Si
,
Señor
,
"
said
the
native
,
sadly
.
