heartily; neither is to be done by

Fever and Fire and Fear.

Leslie had heaped beneath his canopy.
Though not delilious, his high tempera-
ture, coupled with the pains which
racked every nerve and bone in his
body, rendered him light-headed. He
would catch himself up in the midst of
some rambling nonsense to inquire
anXiously whether he had said any
thing silly or strange. On being reas-
sured upon this, he would relax again,
and, as likely as not, break into
babyish wall over his aches and pains.
Blake shook his head when he
learned that the attack had not been
preceded by chill.

said. There is more'n one kind of

In the morning Miss Leslie found
that Blake had built substantial

the first ramshackle structure.
