"I like that," whispered Fitz. :t of the You, Oto, have cured the fellow, and he pays your fee to the old wooden god, Bindzuru. I think he ought to have given you the money." " Hush," breathed Sallie. "The man will hear you." Oto introduced the lacquer-maker as Nishi Gori Yoheye. The man bowed repeatedly, sucked in his breath, and said, as he led the way into his store: " I understand from the honorable doctor that you wish to see the process of lacquering goods.
