"Everything progressing favorably?"

"Perfectly," she returned, as Reinstrom, Haynes and myself formed
a little group about the bedside of the unconscious woman.

"And you say they have no recollection of anything that happens?"
asked Reinstrom.

"Absolutely none--if the treatment is given properly," I replied
confidently.

I picked up a piece of bandage which was the handiest thing about
me and tied it quite tightly about the patient's arm.

As we waited, the patient, who was gradually coming from under the
drug, roused herself.

"What is that--it hurts!" she said putting her hand on the bandage
I had tied tightly.

"That is all right. Just a moment. I'll take it off. Don't you
remember it?" I asked.

She shook her head. I smiled at Reinstrom.

"You see, she has no recollection of my tying the bandage on her
arm," I pointed out.

"Wonderful!" ejaculated Reinstrom as we left the room.
