him up where he died in one Of his

Mr.. Thompson doesn't give this

Harper's Magazine for March is a
varied, entertaining and beautifully
illustrated number. Mr.. Whitney's
account Of his journey to the Barren
Lands Of Northern Canada becomes
more interesting as he penetrates the
White Desert in search Of big game.
His comments on jOurneying by dog
sledges and snOw-shoes, his narrative
of life in an Indian lodge, and his
descriptions of the North-land country
make up the most interesting story Of
travel that has been told for many
years. The illustrations, from
sketches by Mr.. fleming and from
photographs by Mr.. Whitney, some Of
which have been redrawn by Reming-
ton, add greatly to the value Of these
papers.
