Very well, very well, let'spack up, Jimmy. The sheriff appears
to be a mite. It isunfriendly. A later, Doctor Pickens and

(05:06):
Jimmy drove the wagon through a valley. Suddenly, a song dreaded by every
traveler in the far West was heardabove the noise of the wagon. Uncle
Louise just coming down the slope.Indian heavy right for this wagon, Jimmy,
the rains quick. Here a maskedman and another Indians coming down the
opposite trop Come on, Jimmy,by get up, Get up there.

(05:29):
As Jimmy kung to a wagon seat, the doctor urged the team to quicker
speed, and the vehicle pumped andswayed along the rutted trail. Meantime,
a small party of Indians turned backat the lone range turn, Tottle opened
fire. The doctor, intent onholding the team and wagons of the trails,
suddenly called out, Jimmy, we'llhave to stop. The trail trotted.
The screen gets ahead, the horsestap then through that with the wagon.

(05:54):
How pall there? Now we're inpot, Jimmy, Uncle, louisianians
are gone. They went over theridge out of sight. The masked man,
an Indian with them chased them away. Here they come now. I
hope they'll friendly anyway. The Indiansgood driven away. Good thing you didn't
try to drive your team and wagonthrough the stream at the rate they were

(06:15):
going. Eh, you're safe nowIndians have gone that mask if you can't
game only to help you. We'renot out loud. Thanks for what you
did. Thanks a lot, sir. I don't know why you are masked,
but you saved us from possible harm. Gosh, you and that Indian
with your shoes sure scare them away. Mister. By the way, I
am doctor Pickens. This is mynephew and Jimmy. Jimmy is rather young

(06:39):
to be traveling around the country witha medical show. I'm twelve, mister,
and I like to be being withUncle Louis, I help him a
lot. Indeed he does, Sir, I'm the only relative. Jimmy hands
all of them. Necess it is, I take it with me. I

of course. But here he isa bottle of my magic elixir. Try

(07:01):

much of this uncle though he doesn'thardly sell any. Mister, we stopped
someplace. When the sheriff comes along, I have to hide the bottles quick
oo. Evidentally, you haven't muchfaith in your magic medicine dot com of
course, I dose her. Well, then why do you hide it when
a sheriff comes around. When westopped our first town a month ago,

(07:25):
the sheriff came to the wagon duringmy performance. He confiscated all the magic
mixture I had on hand and brokeevery bottle. Regardless of my claim to
the contrary, he said it wasonly colored water. Other medicine shows and
sheets the people in this territory.By selling colored water, it's the rescue

(07:46):
the fool. And a second time, is the liquid you have in that
bottle? Share is a medicinal mixture? I served at an apothecarias of prendice
in my youth, before I studiedto be a doctor and learned a great
deal about medicinal roots and nerves andso far. Oh what's it good for
doctors? And I haven't had theopportunity to observe its effect on an ill

(08:07):
person, but I I know it'sa good tonic and should be effective for
the alleviation of fever. That's interesting. And how how far away from the
next town? You know, sir? A Green Hill is about three miles
south of here. And I'll ridealong with you at the edge of town.
Fine, Fine, those Indians mademe a little nervous. I'll go
to my horse a bottle of magicmedicine for you. Then maybe me see

thick cow sometime and me put abottles in saddle bag. Yeah, yeah,
we're ready. Yeah alone. Rangerand Tottle left doctor Pickens and Jimmy

(08:58):
at the town and return to thehills. Because of unrest among the braves
of an Apache tribe in a nearbyvalley Ballon, Ranger disguised his features under
his mask in case of trouble.Then he and Toto spend several days scoting
and watching. One evening, theyreturned to their camp after observing the Indians'

(09:18):
activities from a ridge overlooking the valley. What did you make of the ceremonial
dance the Apaches were doing? Totothem do dance to sundown to great spirit?
Ask him give time? Tell Apachewho bring tubble to try? Do

waves palms awkward in the sign offriendship and peace. As twelve braves moved
in on foot and stood around themmenacingly. One of them stepped forward and
spoke me, Luco sona chief vicro. We watch see you spy and village

white horse come as sign that paleface to blame for a patchy secret.
Take Hans, tie him to horse. What we do. It's useless to

(10:50):
resist. As several husky braves steppedforward, the Lone rangerer realizing it would
mean instant death to resist, somany allowed them to disarm him and count
and tie them. He was playingfor time, hoping they find means of
escape. Later, after the maskman as Indian were tied to their horses,
Lucos spoke again. We take youto patchy village. Now chase my

Then you'll hear people say he's stealinghis cheerios. Now to continue. As
captives of the Apaches, Blone Rangerand Tattoo were taken to the village in

(12:46):
the valley. They were taken tobig crows wigwam underguard and forced to watch
as the Apache medicine man performed ritualisticceremonies beside the alien sheep. Finally,
the medicine man stopped and turned.He glared at the two captives, then
spoke ominously to Luco, who stoodbeside them. See the crow not better

(13:11):
in burn with fever grow. Wetake prisoners. Time to stakes. Maybe
Chief go to Great Spirits sooner,wait, Luco, maybe Great Spirits tell
us to help Chief. Oh youhave we bring magic medicine in bottles you

it might do good. It mustsleep for time. Wear magic medicine in
the saddle bag of my onion friend'shorse. Let me give it a big
crow. You get bottle, Youtake magic medicine first, then get the
chief. All right. Luco leftthe wig one and soon returned with a

(13:54):
bottle of magic elixir Doctor Pickens hadgiven to the lone ranger. If by
the untie handsome ask men there nowyou take some medicine, then give chief
very well, with hostilized watching,the lone Ranger put the bottle to his

(14:16):
lips and took a gulp of thebitter mixture. Then he stepped forward,
and as the medicine man lifted thechief's head, he gave some to big
Crow. There the magic word onthe bottles say to give him more than
an hour. We stay. Wewatch. If medicine not too good by
dawn, you die. Stay everyhour for three hours. The lone ranger

(14:45):
gave the chief some of the mixture. He and Toto had little hope that
it would do much good, andthey watched for a chance to make an
escape, but they were tied andguarded constantly. Toward dawn, the chief
opened his eyes and called weakly hiswife, father, know me, his
fever is broken. Eagerly Luco andthe medicine man bent over the sick chieftain

(15:09):
them. The medicine man spoke,She's much better. Evil fever gone.
Magic medicine you brought mask man too. Good. Untie them quickly. The
braves untied the ropes that bound Tottleand the lone ranger. Then Luco stepped
forward again. Here your guns,you have spoken truth. Great spirits sent

You go in peace. Maybe havemore magic medicine help fail face get
well. The old ringer realized hemust find doctor Pickens at once, taking

(16:15):
some apaches with them to rush someof the medicine back to town. A
masked man and Indian hurriedly followed thetrail of a big wagon. Meantime,
some miles south of Green Hills,doctor Pickens and Jimmy rode slowly along the
trail, heading for another small town. Gosh, Uncle Louis, you didn't
do very well in those last fewplaces. I know, lu Jim,

(16:36):
maybe the magic elixir isn't any goodafter all. Show me if you're going
against me, I might as wellgive up. Tired or I'm tired of
traveling, Uncle Louis, I surewish you were like a real doctor,
you know, live someplace and tookcare of people and all that. Jimmy,
I am a real doctor, andit's for staying in one spot.
I've tried that one, son,but couldn't make a living. I was

(17:00):
more interested in finding a new medicinethat would bear my name. I plight
come behind us more Indians, though, we'll have to make a race for
it. Jimmy, get up there, Get up once more, The red
and gold wagon bumped and swayed alongthe trail as the doctors, certain this
time they be captured of hills flashedfor horses with a web. Get up,
get up there, and the loo. How's allowing wait, the Mass

(17:23):
plans with us, the Mass fans. Pat, don't you don't friend the
Apaches doctor, we came to findyou. Briefly, the lone Ranger told
what had happened at the Apaches villageand about the epidemic of fever at Green
Hill. He finished by saying,doctor, your medical discovery did the trick

(17:47):
my magie gay Rick. Sure,but how did they do? Gave me
a bottle? Remember it cured thechief. We want all we can carry.
You turn around and follow us backto Green Hill, and there's no
time to lose mm. It wasalmost noon when the Lone Ranger entered the

(18:08):
Sheriff's office and identified himself. Soyou're the lone ranger, mister. I
know you came to help, buteven old doctor Carey can't do hold your
office with some Apaches who offered tohelp us bring the medicine. I've seen
this particular medicine work, Sheriff atthe Apache village. I suggest you have
doctor Carrey tried on the fever victimsmission. And you're say so, we'll

(18:30):
try anything. Let's get that medicine. Doctor Pickens's medicine was taken to the
meeting house, where the patients werehospitalized. Though both old doctor Carey and
the sheriff were dubious, they administeredthe medicine to the sufferers and waited for
the results. That night, doctorCarey spoke to the sheriff. Sure mixture

(18:53):
the mass man brought works, wonders, it knocks this mountain fever out of
a patient's system within hours. Doyou mean that that magic electure really does
the trick? That's way, butwe need more. It's running out on
the way here. He should arrivemost any time. How do I'll go
meet the wagon? Hoo, theyneed more medicine. Commy, there come

Jimmy, show doctor carry where itis? Yes, sir, right this
way, doctor you sear me reckon, I was a little haye see the

(20:00):
other day, doctor Pickens, whenthey already be hot to get sheriff.
You're not the only lawman who toldus to move on. Who if it
hadn't been for your hasn't been forour masked friend Sheriff, nobody would ever
know my mixture was of any value. He must have had a lot of
faith in me to use it onan Indian chief under such tense circumstances.
Frank to doctor Pickens, it wasbecause the rather hopeless situation that I decided

(20:23):
to take a chance on your mixture. Thanky, doctor carry's some more bottles,
Uncle Louis, gosh, I knewthey'd like your magic elixir when they
tried it. Well, I'm gladyou had faith in me, Jimmy,
