Luxury as 1t II INDUCED In by the
Arctic Traders.
So much has been written Of the Es-
kimo c'husky'') dogs and dog sleds of
the north that they may well be men-
toned here if only to show the idea of
luxury which many of the factors and
traders of the Hudson Bay company
entertain. Seated or rather reclining
in his cariole, swathed in furs, he is
driven by an engage on foot who dash
es along at great pace. The cariole is
painted gaudily. There are Russian
bells on the collars Of each of the long
span of dogs, while the harness is
mass Of beadwork and tassels.
No longer when he lodges at night at
a post does he partake solely of the
simpler fare it can furnish, nor even
when he camps out in the wilderness
must he be content with what his gun
can bring down in addition to the penn
mican he carries. For now, either un-
der the cariole seat or in an additional
sled behind. there is found good sup
ply of canned meats and vegetables,
products of Chicago and Ontario, and,
moreover. his driver is his cook. In
the open a fire will be deftly kindled,
tea will be made, bacon and even eggs
will be fried. and hot "hapjacks," that
delectable fritter Of the bush, half an
inch thick and swimming in grease
and molasses will tickle the factors
palate.
At night. enveloped in his furs and
maybe reposing on hastily construct
ed bed of balsam boughs, the last
vision before his eyes close upon the
scenes Of dreamland will be the scin-
tillating splendors of the aurora borea-

with bars of vivid light so rapidly and
in such volume as to make the behold
er almost believe that nature speaks,
mauger the silence, all penetrating, all
pervading-Cornhi Magazine.

WHEN PERIL COMES.


Sudden and Extreme Danger the
Test of True Courage.
It is when the unexpected happens
that fatalism proves how fragile prop
1t is, after all. for human courage. The
soldier or the sailor can say to himself
when he knows that he must take a
supreme risk In battle or in a storm:
Il am powerless against the fate which
was decreed for me from the beginning
of the world. If my time has come,
cannot help it.; If not, all the forces Of
earth and sky and ocean cannot prevail
TO harm me-" But when without an in
stant's warning rock crashes through
q ships bottom and the waters rush
into the gap, when confusion seiZes the
entire company aboard, when the fog Is
too thick for the captain to be seen or
the roar Of the sea browns the sound OF
his orders a new test is applied. Then
1t Is that the courage which rests on
nothing firmer than a negation gives
way, and in his greed to save his own
life the stole becomes as a mailman.
There have been steamship disasters
in which men of humble station. of all
colors and faiths. have shown the finest
quality of heroism. and there have been
those in which the common sailors, all
whites and Europeans, have earned
eternal disgrace by their cowardice.
The point we are making is not that II
is possible to draw hard and fast line
between one religion and another or
one race and another in the matter Of
bravery, but that the affirmative sense
of responsibility for ones own acts. of
the difference between right and wrong.
between nobility and ignominy and Of
the grandeur of duty we'll done at the
sacrifice of SELF is far surer depend
ence in the presence of sudden peril
than all the stoical philosophers ever
worked out by the mind of man.

LOST AND FOUND.
I lost a maiden long ago;

lost a maiden long ago;
Last night l thought I'd found her,
And as my loyal hearts one queen
quietly recrowned her.
Twould not be truth to say she seemed
Untouched by time, since fairer
Fen than of old found her face,
The roses in it rarer.
Her halo had more golden grown,
While locks once hyacinthine
Upon my own poor pate. alas,
For many a year have been thin!
TIE eyes-whose shafts the little god
Employed to overcome me
Alone brighter. Smiles were on the lips
Whose Mo- did once benumb me.
NY heart beat high with hope, but when
spoke her name another
Who stood beside the maid replied,
The maiden called her Mother
The matron smiled on me. I dared
Not tell her that I'd sought her
Through long and weary years, at last
To find her-in her daughter!
