Ives @page { margin-bottom: 5.000000pt; margin-top: 5.000000pt; } TWOThe Trismegistus ClubSt. Ives had always felt at home in Captain Power’s shop, although he would have been in a hard way to say just how. His own home—the home of his childhood—hadn’t resembled it in the slightest. His parents had prided themselves in being modern, and would brook no tobacco or liquor. His father had written a treatise on palsy, linking the disease to the consumption of meat, and for three years no meat crossed... the threshold. It was a poison, an abomination, carrion like eating broiled dirt, said his father. And tobacco: his father would shudder at the mention of the word. St. Ives could remember him standing atop a crate beneath a leafless oak, he couldn’t say just where—St. James Park, perhaps—shouting at an indifferent crowd about the evils of general intemperance.His theories had declined from the scientific to the mystical and then into gibberish, and now he wrote papers still, sometimes in verse, from the confines of a comfortable, barred cellar in north Kent.
