...luggage will consist largely of an arsenical arsenal: six different arsenical compounds which have already been tried on animals, found superior to Bayer 205.*Best of them all is Arsenical No. 130, in which tear gas aids and abets arsenic to destroy the trypanosomes, restoring the sufferer to normalcy. Dr. Clement C. Chesterman, who has spent years in the Belgian Congo, will cooperate with Pharmacologist Stratman-Thomas to turn the jungle into a vast clinic, inoculating thousands of infected natives and animals with the drugs. They will follow epidemics around Africa, maintaining a base at Leopoldville, Congo capital...
...known for generations) suddenly brought forth anomalies with curiously colored eyes, unreasonable wings, radically bobbed hair antennae.

Someone administered a dose of arsenic to Hi-Point Monoplane, prize collie puppy, owned by one William J. Burgess. So potent was the dose, that Hi-Point Monoplane died a day or so later, to the rage, sorrow, and financial loss of his owner. Someone else fixed a beady and covetous eye on Warily Gang Leader, champion wire-haired fox terrier, kennel mate and spouse to parexcellent Talavera Margaret. While the dog was being shown by her owner...
