...tribe so backward that they have not yet discovered pots. But their hallucinatory snuff can induce a "trip" faster than LSD. Made from the bark of the epena and ama asita trees, epena is administered through a blowpipe. The tripster puts one end of the pipe to his nostril, and a helper gives a full-lunged blast that sends the snuff deep into the nasal passages. At first reeling and retching from the impact, the snuff taker soon straightens up, begins to strut, emits an occasional laugh or yell, and slaps his thighs in selfesteem.

...secret agent who ever peered through a potted palm. Operation Bandylegs is conceived and carried out by Stanley Farquhar (Lionel Jeffries), an insuperably respectable old bureaucrock with a brain about as subtle as a Mickey Mouse watch, less hair on his head than Sean Connery has in his left nostril, and a blithe belief that some fine day, if he faithfully munches his cornflakes and says sir to his superiors, he will become the sort of ice-cold secret operative who has vodka in his veins and comes out of his frightful experiences shaken but not stirred...
...likely to blow a shrill Tarzan victory call on a siren-whistle that could be mistaken for a hunting horn. He delights in the unexpected. In the middle of a flute solo, he will pop a child's plastic song flute into his right nostril and trill out a brief duet.

They have taken another short but promising step toward control of viral infections by using IDU against herpes simplex, the virus of fever blisters, in cases where the sores had broken out on the upper lip, nostril or cheek. Doctors usually dismiss cold sores as trivial, but the virus may cause a fatal inflammation if it spreads to the brain; it can cause blindness if it reaches the eyes. Some of the British patients already had corneal infections...
