“Mr. Henry Tempest, stockbroker, is suffering from a severe attack of the malady which gives the book its title; to cure it he takes an overdose of an Egyptian remedy, recommended by a friend with a careless turn for archaeology. The effects of this overdose are amazing and mischievous. The stockbroker is transformed from a staid and benevolent man of middle-age into a boy of pranks.... He has one frantic day of irresponsible delight, and his adventures ... carry one on from peal to peal of laughter.”—Acad.
“It is an excellent farce.”
