Of his accustomed source of food. Hence
he must either hibernate or find his way
far out over a lifeless sea of ice to the
open water, where varying fortunes may
put him in possession of an unwary meal.
But with all Bruins ingenuity and hard.
earned adaptability long periods of famine
are always before him.
The native people, like the animals,
have evolved system of life and adapta-
tion TO their habitat which could not be
much improved by civilized aid. They
are able to Withstand long periods of
famine like the deer and bear with no
apparent injury, except loss of bodily
weight. Their cutaneous circulat ton Is
always profuse. The muscular outlines
are largely obliterated by an development
of fibro-fatty tissue like that of the seal
and walrus. The intestinal capacity is
greatly increased to afford greater sur
face for the absorption of nitrogenous
and fatty foods.
l shall always remember our camps
while travelling over this period. particu-
larly the stormy scenes. We undre8sed
In the open air, crept into our sleeping
bags, and with a rare delight stretched
out upon the virgin fields of snow for
long sleep There was nothing but the
high blue sky above us, and often there
were many hundred feet of snow and ice
/ bene:th us. AT first, after reclining, we
were nearly stiff from cold, but this was
| socn followed by a glowing reaction,
when we were conscious of bounding
streams of heated blood sent throbbing
| through tense arteries. We felt doubly
| the wild pleasures of primitive life, as We
heard the roaring storms and felt the
snow-charged winds blasting against our
| protected bodies.
Such storms always brought us to
sharp consciousness of the suDerb animal
| comforts, as comforts go in the Arctic
| All of this served TO enhance our admi-
ration for the wonderful mechanism of
| the human body. Nothing could bring
| one to a keener realization of this than
! our experience. To feel the heart force
| heat and life 10 the surface while resting
| over and sometimes under a blanket of
! protecting snow is to reel the electric
! glow which for the want of . better term
| we call life.
In conclusion | wish to emphasize the
| fact that IL is not the low ,empera ture
| Of the Arctic from which explorers suf-
| fer. Ii is the long and intense darkness
and the inability to carry sufficient food
and accustomed aids to personal comfort
! But this is easily cOunterDalanced by the
acute passions Of life as they are brought
out by the prolonged MONDAY spIendor
after resting In the long darkness The
white lights and dark shades entering
into the soul make life long dream
the spirit now effervescing. then smother
ed again, almost frozen only to be thaw-
ed out for an ascent into an atmosphere
OF heavenly purity. In my Judgment po-
lar grandness lifts the minds horizon,
! and, as a whole, the experience affords
a wild and weird and poetic existence
long to be remembered

THE POPE AND THE sMUGGLER.
An Incident of the .PontiT's Younger
Days.

Correspondence of the Pail Mall Gazette.)
1t is reported that the Pope will soon
publish an important encyclical on sub
Versive parties, addressed to the laboring
and working classes, in which he will
recall them to respect for religion and
obedience TO those placed over them. Leo
XIII has remembered with interest the
mission given TO him by Pope Gregory
XVI when he was only twenty-eight. and
only i few weeks after he ahd celebrated
his first mass. At that time the province
of Beneyento, which belonged 10 the papaI
states, bat was almost surrounded by
the territory of the kingdom of Naples
was in much worse degree then Switzer-
land now is-a nest of smugglers, brig
ands and revolutienists. To put an end
10 this state Of things the then Monsig-
nor Pecci was sent there as papal dele
gate, that is 10 say, with full powers.
He acted with extreme energy, once sure
Of the troops at his disposal attacking
the leaders of the malefactors. dispensing
their bands and making most of them
prisoners. The latter, heavily chained,
were carried through the streets, as an
example TO the people and to reassure
the respectable Inhabitants.
In this work Monsignor Pecci was
greatly assisted by a brave and intelli-
gent officer, Signor Sterbini who became
his conhdant and when the ecclesiatic
was elected Pope he nominated Sterbini
as scalco segreto (secret carVer), a very
important position at the Papal Court.
for the holder Of that office is the only
person present al the meals OF the pontiff,
Sterbini died in 1855 and his son has step
ped into his place.
MonsiGnor Pecci had to resort TO drastic
measures To stamp out smuggling, for il
was practiced and supported hy the most
prominent people of the district; in fact,
a certain marquis who was suffering un-
der the rigorous orders given by the dele
gate Was audacious enough to go person
ally 10 Monsignor Pecci TO complain of
what he called. THE want of respect"
shown 10y the customs officers toward
him. The Pope's representative began by
treating the marquis with courtesy point
ing ouJ that the laws applied equally TO
an, high and low, but this reasoning in
stead o. convincing the N mlIquis ma ie him
so angry that he declared he would go to
Rome and not rest until he had obtained
the delegates recall
Very well, answered M0nSignor Pecci
with thai dignity and calmneSs which
characterized him, take your complaints
to Rome, but do not forget that TO so TO
the Vatican you have to pass by Castle
ST Angela" the famous prison.. That
same evening Monsignor Pecci had the
castle of the marquis surrounded by the
pontiiical troops and every soul in it
arrested. His suspicious that the place
WAS the HEADQUARTERS OF a band Of SNUG
gIerS were fully confirmed

THE BUSY STIIETTo.
Once i'm Every Two Hours Ii Claims
Victim.


tFrum The -, Loliis Globe Democrat
Throughout the kingdom of Italy an
Italian kills an Italian every two hours
during the entiEe wear by means of the
knife. Such are the official statistics
which were today placed before me by
Baron Garofalo. vice president and lead
ing spirit of the league which. under the
presidency of Queen Marguerite and the
patronage OF King Humbert, has been
formed TO put down homIcIGe Dy depriv-
ing II Of its all too convenient and all too
universal weapon, the accursed knife.
During the 80 days Of the year 1897.
there We're placed on record $3.50 homi-
ciies by means Of the knife a total be-
side which the list OF killed in the san
culinary battle of Custozza. and even in
the holocaust Of Abba Carima i'm Abys-
Sinia. sinks into insignifcance. Italy is.
in fact, engaged in a personal war with
herself, which costs her on an everage
5.ag1 lives annually.
The league, or association. which has
just been formed under these loyal au-
spices has very rightly and cleverly
placed itself in communication with the
various labor unions and trade assocla-
tions and among the first of the labor as
sociations 70 take up the matter with en-
thusiasm and with vigor has been the
Union of Associated Printers. which in
cludes some of the most public-spirited
and energetic of the workingmen OF
Rome.
The league. likewise, has secured a
promise from the premier Gen. Pelloux,
TO submit To the legislature, when ii
meets again. a law rendering ii a penal
uffense for any one TO carry one of those
knives with which In nearly every case
murder is done in this country.
L.
quate the tribunals have shown them
selves until now TO put stop to crime by
means OF the knife, ii may be mentioned
that the annual average of homicides in
Italy alone surpasses that of all the re-
mainder of Europe put together.

LOST MANHOOD
5DAYs' TRIAL TREATMENT FREE
Prof. Jules Laborde's Wonderful French Restorative
"CALTHOS"
No c. o. D. or Deposit Scheme. Food for Thought.

AS man grows in years, his system gives out
here and there. If no help be sought from
Science, the trouble grows worse. When the
eyesight fails, skilled ocu1ists and opticians
soon make the patient see well as ever. If
the teeth decay the expert dentist builds them
up permanently with gold, and restores them
to their old-time usefulness. If deafness come
specialists in the treatment of the ear quickly
bring back the sense of hearing. So it goes
until we reach that inhrmity commonly called
Lost Manhood. The man so afflicted may well
be pitied. His thoughts go back to the days of
youth, when his veins tingled with the vigor of
strength power and ambition when he min
ged in society and was real man. Possibly
you. the reader of this notice, are so afflicted
If that be true, you can have your infrmity
cured, just as failing eyesight, hearing and
teeth can be corrected.
CALTHOS.-There is great French remedy
named CALTHOS, which restores men 10 vigor
and strength IN the organs of true manhood.
1t cures Varicocele and all weaknesses caused
by excesses, overwork or in dulgence in stimu
lants, and develops small or shrunken parts.
1t is the only discovery OF Science which does
this There are many men in Congress, in the
Stock Exchanges. in great business houses Of
large cities-professional men, farmers lab
orers-who have had their powers of youth
brought back by CALTHOS. You can tell them
by the brightness of their eyes, by their erect
carriage, by the vigorous, viriie way they go
about the duties of life.
CALTHOS is the discovery of the celebrated
Paris physician, Prof. Jules Laborde. 1t is sold
in America, Canada and Mexico, by The Won
Mohl Co, of Cincinnati, Ohio, the largest i'm
porters of standard medicines in the United
States, whish is well known for its reliability
and high standing in the profession.
This company never, under any circum-
stances, makes pub : the names of its patients,
although tiousap' write every year express
