lone.

1t was at the close of lively morn
ing visit that he first told one of his
greatest friends that his life was in
danger, saying in the most conversa-
tional tone, II have had terrible ver-
dict pronounced against me since | saw
you last. They saw / have got angina
pectoris. am to eat and drink, and
get up and sit down at my peril, and
may drop down dead at any moment"
He subsequently consulted Dir. Murrell,
the well-known authority on angina
pectoris, who did not indorse the yer-
dict, but found that his heart was weak
and that hard work had made an old
man of him. For more than year he
remained under the same medical care,
and got comparatively we'll. He was
enabled to resume his favorite exercise,
and his usual animated lifo being, how
ever, fairly warned, and that impress
lively, that he must neither overwork nor
overexert himself The Injunction was
perfectly vain. He was extraordinarily
impatient and reckless of his own CON
ditlon; would still dash out of railway
carriages before the stopping of the
train, would hurry in and out of cabs,
and give way in all things to his usual
iInpetuosity. The end was grievous as
it was sudden, and is briefly described
in the preface: "On the evening OF the
Sd of November, 1882, he was seized
with paralysis of the right side, ac-
companied by loss of speech. His mind
also had failed, though at intervals his
thoughts would return to him. After
the first three weeks these lucid inter-
yals became rarer, but it was always
very difficult to tell how far his mind
was sound or how far astray." He was
moved from the rooms in Suffolk street,
which he had taken as soon as 1t was
decided that he could not live at Hart
ing, and where the doors were beseged
with anxiously inquiring visitors, to q
quiet house in Welbeck street, where
he died nearly five weeks from the
night OF his attack. The wish he had
expressed so strongly in his days of
health and strength was granted. The
power of work was over, and he was
taken from the world in which, accord
ing to his own view. there could be no
longer any joy,'-1smpte Bar,

Bad Air.

When person has remained for an
hour or more in crowded and poorly
ventilated room or railroad car, the sys-
tenn is already contaminated to great
er or less extent by breathing air viii
ated by exhalations from the lungs,
bodies and clothing of the occupants.
The immediate effect of these pOisons
is to debilitate, to lower vitality and to
impair the natural power of the system
to resist disease. Hence it is that per-
sons who are attacked by intlammatory
diseases, rs pneumonia or rheumatism,
can generally trace the beginning of
the disease to chill felt on coming out
of crowded room into the cold or
damp air, wearing perhaps thin shoes
and insufficient clothing. Ii these facts
were generally understood and acted
upon, thousands OF lives might be saved
every year. 1t is well-known fact that
men who ''camp out" sleeping on the
ground at all seasons of the year, sell
dom have pneumonia, and that rheuma-
tism, with them, comes, as rule, only
from unwarrantable imprudences.
There are two facts that should be
learned by every person capable of ap-
preciating them, and they should never
be lost sight of for n moment. One is
that exhalations from the lungsHthe
breath-are deadly poison, contain
ing the products of combustion in the
form of carbonic acid gas, and if per-
son were compelled to reinhale it un-
mixed with the oxygen of the air, it
would prove rs destructive to life MS the
fumes of charcoal. This is nm enemy
that is always present, in force, in as
semblies of people, and only constant
and free infusion of fresh air prevents
IT from doing mischief that would bo
Immediately apparent. The other fact
is that pure air is the antidote TO this
poison. The oxygen of the air is the
greatest OF all purifiers. Rapid streams
of water that pass through large cities,
receiving the sewage, become pure
again through the action of the air aftel
running few miles. Air is the best Of
all "blood purifiers Combined with
vigorous exercise TO make 1t effective,
it will cure any durable case of con
