fortunate in having pa,s oi good strong
legs. For one of his legs he has
a peculiar regard, as he came near
losing it through rheumatism. Athlo-
phoros saved it for him however, and for
that invaluable remedy he now cherishes
an almost equal regard. The story is
well told by Mr.. Schroek in his own
words:
