STRONG SPIRIT IN WEAK BODY
David Livinestone's Struggles With
Sickness While He Was Making
His Name Immortal.

In connection with the centennial OF
the birth of David Livingstone, mis-
sionary and African explorer, Sir
Harry H. Johnston writes in the Brit
ish Geographical Journal: During
the winter or rainy season of 1853,
Livingstone was very ill. He had
been wet, times without number, and
suffered from terrible pains in the
chest. and pneumonia. He was often
semi-delirious and subject to delu-
sions, such as that the bark of trees
was covered with figures and faces of
men. He thought often of his chill
dren and friends and his thoughts
seemed almost to conjure them up
before him. For the first time he was
being carried and could not raise him
self to sitting position. The Arabs
were very kind to him in his extreme
weakness, but the vertical sun, blister
ing any part of the skin exposed to it,
tried him sorely in the day marches.
In July, 1870, his feet we're almost
consumed with irritable, eating ulcers,
pulsating with pain. These
sores were obviously communicated by
mosquitoes from the blood of the
wretched slaves. who were tortured
with them. Livingstone could fall
asleep when he wished at the shortest
notice. A mat and shady tree under
which to spread it, would at any time
afford him refreshing sleep. But in
his last years of travel sleep was often
made sad by the realistic dreams OF
happy English life from which he
Weakened to find himself i'll and con.
sumed with anxiety that he might not
live to complete his mission.
after 1869 he suffered much from
the results of the decay and loss of
his molar teeth, so that imperfect
mastication of rough African food in
duced severe dyspepsia and his bod
lily strength weakened under a condi-
ton Of permanent malnutritIon. Stan
ley, by relieving him when he did,
gave him at least two more years OF
life, certain measure of happiness
and the sweet consolation that he was
not forgotten and that the magnitude
of his discoveries was appreciated"

the young man addressed gravely.

joinder "In this world it pays to look

and friendship of a person like Mr..

Vane DensIow did not reply to this
outburst. He recognized the speaker
as specious and insincere. and he had
his own ideas as to the disinterested-
ness of Daniel Trench. relative though
he was.

heiress."
Just so. Indeed not. Just mem
toned 1t. Ha. hunt forget it, my
dear young friend. Good day"
Vane Denslow threw up the window
of his room as If to clarity poisoned
air, as the crafty limb of the law with
drew. In brief, the attorney had ap-
peared to make Vane a proposition
to go to Meriden, fifty miles away,
and enter into business. His uncle
was about to retire. wealthy man.
The elevator he owned controlled a
fine trade. He offered to make a gift
Of it to his nephew.
Vane Denslow was a proud self re-
liant young man, but he saw his way
clearly to accept the gift In his mind
and in his uncle's mind and in the
minds of all who knew q great deal,
but could not legally prove the same,
when Vane's father died his brother
, in-law had managed by quirk of the
law to get hold of some valuable
property by all moral right belonging
to the Denslows.
There was no doubt that old
Trench's conscience as he got older
had urged him to a grudging restitu-
ton, the way Vane figured it out The
crafty plot regarding his ward was
= characteristic Of the old schemer.
Gale had expressed his sentiments
boldly and let the matter rest there.
He disliked leaving his home town
and his fiancee, devoted LEONE Bel
ton, but they talked it all over and
settled the sacrifice to business in a
mutually satisfactory way,
Then LEONE, at Wildly, began to
receive some letters that nearly broke
her heart at the first, and Dale, at
Meriden, in turn received news con-
corning his fiancee that amazed him.
Fortunately he ran down to Wildly for
an explanation.
1T is all clear to me-" he said to
LEONE. Some trouble maker has
got the news to you Of my gay life
at Meriden. and 10 me of the numer-
