ease There, Seemed Indifferent
to the Laws Of Health.

Robert Louis Stevenson, for SO wise
man, seems to have been singularly
unaware of, or Indifferent to, the laws
of health. but that, too, may have
been part of his wisdom. He spent
the winter of 1887 in the Adirondacks
struggling against the disease which
was not to subdue him for seven
years. He lived in little cottage that
was much overheated and from which
all ventilation was carefully excluded.
The smoke Of his incessant cigarettes
obscured the atmosphere and perhaps
helped to drive away the visitors who
came to gaze upon him as one gazes
at lion in den. Fashionable call
ers were specially unwelcome and
Stevenson once remarked. according
to an account in the Medical Record.

which dread, but the great washed"
But whoever else was unwelcome
there was always greeting for Rich

most tremendous picture, that OF the

close to the warmth while Mansfield
at the other end of the rooom gave his
