expedition to expect to gain much adj
ditional information on this line from
DR.. Nansen's book. The interest which
1t is destined to create and satisfy is
of different kind. The man and his
COMPREHENSIVE life amid unusual en-
vironments, the hopes and fears, boy
fish reveIries and agonies of doubt, the
cool courage in the face of strange
dangers, the ingenuity equal to all
things, the personal force ana fitness
Of these adventarers-these are the
things thatawHE attract and hold spell
bound the public.
That FridtjOf Nansen has been able
to demonstrate his scientific faith by
the results Of the three years in the
Arctic circle is triumph in the realm
of science; that he has been able to
ftell the story of these three years with
a power which gives his two bulky
volumes the precedence Of all the fic-
ton of the day is, perhaps, a greater
! triumph in the realms of art. "Ee thou

but one direction-onward-" thou
shalt inherit the crown of life"
In the first volume DIR. Nansen re-
counts the planning of the expedition
right in the teeth of the most dampen-
ing opposition from the old Arctic ex
plorers; the building of the ''Fram''-a
marvel of forethought and ingenuity
the selecting of the men and the prep
aratory Voyage up into the ice drift,
and then the years of tedious progress.
The story OF the ship is full of boyish
frolics, and feast days. Nansen en-
phasizes the elements of comfort and
nirth on hoard the Fran, rather than
the sufferings and gloom which always
loom up so high in our minds when
we think of such experiences. The
deliberate healthfulness and sanity of
body. and mind which these men main
tanned under all circumstances were
the best reasons for their success. The
second volume is intensified and thrill
ing. The story of that marvellous
journey over seas Of ice and stretches
of weary. desolate land is one to stir
