Inquiry elicited the fact that our dear Charlie was down with typhoid fever. We watched with anxious suspense for the daily bulletins which Sirnp brought from his home. First he was getting worse, next weaker, then a little bit better, then convalescing, and finally we heard he was up and around. One day there appeared at the school a pale, sickly fellow, with his clothes a mile too big for him, who claimed to be our own dear Charlie. We had our doubts iof it, as there was such a difference between himand our remembrance of the original, but when he happened to remark, I'm not as well as if I was twice as well, but still I'm better than if I was only half as well ! our doubts vanished.
