In October, 1K70, Stanley started out
from Hoinbay on his, search for Doctor
Livingstone on behalf of two newspa

had plunged into the heart of Africa

fighting for his life against the rav

vainly against his old foes, the slave
tradera, and wandering slowly about,
studying the regions to the west und
south of Tanganyika, cured for and
aided by the natives, who reverenced
him aa a superior being.
Stanley moved Inland from Zanzi

was again delayed. At last he was
able to proceed into that vaHt wilder

across toward the west const or had
tried to move northward toward the
Nile valley Stanley did not know.
The fact was that Livingstone, In ex

new supplies should have reached him,

aflame with acid ooisons. that are forcing their
way through the glands and pores of the skin, causing it to redden
and swell and break out in splotches, pustules and pimples, from
which a clear, yellow, watery matter exudes, hardens and dries, and
then peels off in scales or fine particles like bran. Eczema kindles
