AN ANTARCTIC OASIS,
Queer Discovery Made During the
 Recent Expedition

Recent antarctic discoveries by the
 Belgian expedition, are described in
 the Century for January by Mr. Fred erich A. Cook of Brooklyn, whose arti- cIe is very fully Illustrated. "An oasis in a snowy wilderness" is the phrase he employs in characterizing a certain bit of the antarctic 1apd Being still unwilling to advance into the unknown region before Us while enshrouded in mist, We drew near a prominent motn- tain peak to make a de5arkment The eliff was perpendicular cliff, free of snow to the se2shore. It was one of aumber extending far into. the south~
 ast, as We learned on the following
 .ay. We made Q debarkment at it's 1ase. Here was life in profusion, as
 ldeed there was on every rock where fife could gain a footing. The noise Geom the birds, which re-echoed from tiff to cliff, was deafening. The lower 'ocks were lined with snoring and grunting sea-leopards. Columns Of Vap0r rose above the water followed by a hiss like that of a steau engine, lhd a second later the blue back of a whale, with it's long fin and ponderous l tail, lashed the water into a foa1ny whirlpool. The great wall of land-ice rose to each side of the black If, which gave us a shelf as landing place. From this wall came frequent sounds like the explosion of cannon, which were followed by splash and eommotion in the water. With such reports parts of tue wall would com stantly break away and fal: into a mil don pieces, streWing the water with small fragments of ice, but not with tcebergs- Above us rose a cliff to an altitude of about 2,000 feet; out from this were projecting mantel-like rocks. which served as resting places for the eormorants and sea-gulls. Here the young ones, dressed in gray down, coaXed their mothers for food. We ex- aected to see the little things drop from their narrow resting places, to be de- stroyed on our heads or on the rocks below, but such an accident rarely hap pened. Our greatest surprise here was the discovery of large quantities of moss and lichens, which gave the spot ele life and color. After seeing noth- ing but ice and black rocks for so many days this sight Of green and brown and red amid an endless expanse Of ley desert was q great relief. It was

WHAT AsroNIsHEDTHE SCOUT
ostrIches in South Africa Are Often
 Exceedingly Familiar.

The war in South Africa is produc, nave ever come under the notice of the British soldiers. One of the latest re- ports from the scene states that the simplen=inded British soldiers have mistaken troops of ostriehes for band. of Boers ard bands of Boers for troops of ostriches. Tn some cases the os- triches have made friends with the soldiers. One of the best known cor respondents at the front, who was with General Methuen at the Modder river, reports this remarkable incl dent: While I ranged the valley or plain with my glasses something s}sp- ped and tumbled heavily over the loose stones behind me. turned, thinking 10 dodge or help a stumbling man and found myself staring into the great brown eyes of an ostrich six feet tall and with legs almost as thick as and longer than my own. He came up here some days ago said a soldier. and he always stays here now. We feed him and fool with him, and he seems very happy The ostrich stalked past ne and took position hetween the major and the captain, where after appearing to observe that they were very busy scanning the landscape. he, toe, stared at the plain and remained erect and watchful, the highest type of sentry in appearance. He marred this fine effect for just moment by seizing and swallowing a box of safety matches. After that he continued his sentry duty with satisfaction in his eyes, The ostrich is a great figure in public life in South Africa He is a source of wealth and often friend and companion. He Is a valuable sun. stitute for a watch dog. He can kick q horse to death and Is, therefore, very formidable to b lars.

CATARRH OF THE STOMACH.
A Pleasant. Simple, but Safe and Elf
 fectual Cure for It.

Catarrh of the stomach has bong been considered the next thinf; to incurable. The usual symptoms are full CT bloating sensation after eating. ac. companied sometimes with sour or watery risin3s. a formation of gases. causing pressure or tn. heart and lungs and difficult breathing, head aches. fckle appetite, nervousness and a general played out. languid feeling.
 There is often a foul taste in the mouth. coated tongue and If the in- terior of the stomach could be seen 1t would show a slimy, infam d condl- tion.
 The cure for this common and obsti- nate trouble Is found in a treatment which causes the food to be readily, thoroughly digested before 1t has time to ferment and irritate the delicate mucous surfaces of the stomach. To secure a prompt and heanhy diges- tion is the one necessary thing to do and when normal digestion is secured the catarrhal condition will have dis appeared.
 According to pr. Harlanson the safest and best treatment is to use after each meal tablet, composed of DiasLase, Aseptic Pepsin. little Nux. Golden Seal and fruit acids These tablets can now be found at all drug stores under the name of Stuarts Dys- pepsla Tablets and not being a patent medicine can be used with perfect saft,y and assurance that healthy ap. petite and thorough digestion will f0l. low their regular use after meals
 MT. N. J, Booher. Chicago. H., writes: "Catarrh is local condition resulting from a neglected cold in the head, whereby the lining membrane of the nose becomes infamed and the poisonous discharge therefrom passing backward i to the throat reaches the stomach, thus producing catarrh of tho stomach. Medical authorities pre- scrfbed for me for three years for ca- tarrh of the stomach. without cure. but today l am the happiest of men after using only one box of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets 1 cannot find ap- propriate words to express my good feeling. have fourli flesh, appetite and sound rest from their use."
