Arctic Waters; Why Yellow !?

Arctic explorers never tire Of TEL
ling how beautifully yellow the wa
ters of the northern sea appear. To
those who live on the seashore in
temperate and tropical countries, the
stories Of travellers concerning the
yellow waters Of Greenland and Ice
land are taken with the proverbisl
"grain of salt;" but scientists have
declared that the Arctic Seas are
yellow, and that 1t was Scoresby
who first explained the cause of its
peculiar color.
Perceiving that the waters were
of an unusual color, he had some
drawn up and examined it with his
microscope. To his surprise he found
that the color was due to the pres
euce Of minute animalcules, each SO
lnconceivably small that a single
drop of the water contained upwards
of 10000 Of the little creatures =! At
that rate pint of the water would
show 10000 900. each sporting
about Ia ais place sltnout disturbing
or crowding his neishbors.
