with uioao quear sickleshaped marks all over tho body high fever nd alternate periods of coma and delirium bugs was grave this sudden onset at sickle fever as mysterious and demoralis ing as the recent outbreak of sleeping sickness was making whole communities nervous was ailing emergency hospital wards and alas too frequently was tak ing the father from his tasks forever tha mother from her home and the child from his crib household pets too were its victims no serums had been de veloped yet to protect anyone from the terrible disease in the realm of science workers new and veteran peered through their micro scopes scanned rows of glass test tubes in which were growing countless millions of germs and studied with knitted brows men and beasts 111 with the disease laboratory workers too became 111 aome died their bodies showing the ter rlfylng mark of the purple sickle x tell you we are not going to and the organism by trying to grow it in teat tubes declared doctor rock nestor it is spread from insect to man not from man to man we must find the insect i bugs cast another quick glance at revelsky how many tunes had he been disease identifying tha farm that caused it you go beck tothe laboratory ill stay was doctor rocknestors order bugs walked back with her nerves tender and jumpy tha elan had been dismissed by tha junior assistant and tha laboratory was in exact order except for nvlkys in struments and apparatus methodically sterilising every article except tha grow ing cultures of anthrax bugs stowed the articles through tha thin glaaa petri dlih in which organisms ware grown by means of a special transparent jellyllxe food bugs stared at the thin fllamentota colonies of living germs he shook his head for scatter through out those filamentous growths wetw others colonise that did not belong there revelskya careless workmanship had allowed contaminations to slip in weeds growing with the grain unclean dishes or instruments might do that that night bugs worked late in the laboratory trying as ever to solve the puaale or his persistent experiment ralture tuojate he worked without any thing to eat for he went home with that old pain gnawing in his stock he not feeding himself well enough that was all the next day he was loo dlxxy to report for work that day he heard of revelsky old hoi lit the dlspener told him he i developed sickle tc er i a

sickle fever an threx sickle tever the thought crash ed through bugs leaped up his pulse racing of course i from the refrigerator storage kheif he seised revelsky s contaminated anthrax petri dish harks remained in the jelly where revelsky s instruments had prodded the anthrax colony to ob tain germs for study the instrument under revelsky s in expert guidance had pushed right on through the anthrax colony into another colony so thin and water like that he never would have seen it without special light whatever foreign germ was grow ing there had gotten on his instrument along with the anthrax probably both kinds of germs were on that forceps i now began to operate uwt uncompro mising drive tor truth that made bugs land out as one of the most promising of all rocknestor s proteges

wrong but just aa surety as bugs had proved him wrong had ha proved his beloved doctor rock- tcsstor wrong rockvnsstor was going to stake hla reputation on his belief that the bite or jnfected insects was reepon- sjble for the disease in man bugs had everyone waa gone it waa dark again daylight came bugs eyas blinked the bed was quiet the light was strong why doctor nrroekneator you are heref bugs
