NOT USED TO SMOKING.
Patient Follows Doctors Directions
to the Letter, But Does Not
Get Well.

A Macclesfeld man was in very bad way
OF health. After much anxious thought ne
determined TO consult doctor, relates Lon
don Tit-Bits.
The latter, after a most minute exam
ination, pronounced the patient to be sui
iering from severe form OF dyspepsia, and
prescribed for him accordingly. He was
very. particular in giving full directions as
to diet.
A light breakfast-cup of cocoa, dried
toast, and other simple fare; plain dinner
chop, no potatoes, glass OF claret; and
only one cigar per day. He was most care
full to impress the fact upon the patient 5
mind that the one cigar should never be eI-
ceeded
The patient went away and returned in
4 week worse than ever. The doctor was
nonplussed.
Upon inquiries he found that the man
had most faithfully carried out all his in
structions to the letter.
Il know what it is" replied the man Of
medicine You've had more than one
cigar day. It's the smoking that's done
it."
Yes; I know that, doctor. 1t is the
smoking; but I've only had one cigar at
time, and that was quite enough, for
never smoked in my life until you told
me to-"

leaves New Zealand take some hum
dreds of frozen carcasses of sheep. A
large freezing chamber has been built
on her decks to preserve this meat,
which will be most welcome to the
crew of the Discovery, who for months
have been subsisting on canned goods.
Sirups, biscuits, butter and great
variety of food are also being taken.
A fresh supply of clothing for all
hands is included in the cargo; but
most important of all is the $40 tons
of coal.
Not the least interesting of the
many things for the Discovery, and one
that will probably be appreciated more
than anything else is the big sack of
letter. When these are handed to
Capt. Scott and his men they will re-
ceive the first tidings from home in al
most two years time.
The Morning is an ideal craft for the
work she is to carry out. She is lao
feet long, 31h feet beam, and her
draught loads is IS feet. With her
auxiliary engine she can steam eight
knots an hour, though much depend
ence will be placed upon her sails, she
being barque-rigged. Her gross ton
mage is 437, registered 297, and she
represents the very best type of the
Norwegian whaler, having been built
more than 30 years ago of the best oak
and green heart available, and is as
good ship as when she was launched.
AS to her officers and men, they are
a most CHEEKY lot, full of courage and
conviction that this long voyage will
be crowned with success.
Capt. Colback, who commands the
vessel, and who will be under Capt.
Scott's orders when the two ships
meet, is experienced, enthusiast tic, dar-
ing and skillful. He has been on the

sea ever since his boyhood, and is 80
years old. He is a lieutenant in the
royal naval reserve of England. The
officers and crew number 90 in all.
Of the great southern continent,
which Capt. Scott and his officers and
crew are attempting to penetrate, but
little is known. OF the little informa-
tion available English and American
expeditions have contributed tho
greater part, though the Italian expe-
dition under Lieut.. Booze, in 1ss1-2, add
ed few additional facts to that al
ready known. The continent was dis
covered first by Capt. John Briscoe
on February 27, 1881, more than three
centuries after Magellan had first trav-
ersed the southern seas. In 1881 Capt.
Briscoe reached as far south as 81
degrees 81 minutes, and the following
year discovered Graham's Land, in 81
degrees ! minute. Much valuable in
formation of the southern seas was
gained by the American expedition un-
der Lieut.. Charles Wilkes, which sailed
from Hampton Roads on August 10,
1888. The expedition consisted of six
vessels, three of them men of war,
and was accompanied by a number of
distinguished scientists. The farthest
point south reached was 20 degrees.
In 1S41 Sir James Clark Ross command
ed an expedition which penetrated the
ice seas to rs degrees II minutes. 1t
is hoped by the societies that equipped
the Discovery expedition that it may
reach a point further south than any
that preceded it, and if it returns safe
ly it will undoubtedly add much Of value
to our store of information of this
vast, ice-bound, uninhabited continent.

periious journey last month started a
relief ship to find the Discovery and
carry her fresh supplies if it is pos
sible.
The Morning is the appropriate
name of the ship that goes to carry
relief and aid to the crew of the Dis
covery, and she has been fitted out so
as to meet with every demand for aid,
should that be needed. She will visit
the points at which the Discovery was
expected to leave the zinc cylinders
containing records, and from these
will make an effort to locate the hardy
explorers wherever they may be in the
antarctic seas.
The coast of Victoria Land will be
examined, and should the Discovery
have wintered in that region, the
Morning will communicate with her,
and transfer the provisions and coal
which she carries.
Should there be no trace found along
the east coast of Victoria Land, the
Morning will proceed eastward along
the ice barrier to the place where Capt
Colbeck, her commander, landed in
February, 1900, with NJ. Borchgrevink.
Capt. Scott intended, if possible, to
leave a record of his proceedings there
If no news is found, it will be as
sumed that the Discovery succeeded in
penetrating the unknown regions to
the eastward of the one hundred and
sixty-fourth west meridian. In this
case she will probably emerge in the
Pacific, and the Morning will make no
attempt to follow her.
Should the Morning meet the Discov-
cry, Capt. Scott will be instructed to
get out of his winter quarters as rap
idly as possible, and carry on, with
the aid of fresh supplies and coal, sci
entific work and exploration during
the navigable season of 1903, returning
to Lyttleton in April of that year.
Even if the Morning locates the Dis
covery, it may be difficult to reach her.
In view of this possibility, both ships
have been provided with large quanti-
| ties of gun-cotton and blasting pow.
der, to blow up any intervening ice.
| 1t is not thought the ice will be more
than five or six feet in thickness in
these regions.
When the Morning sailed her decks
were covered with boxes and cases.

provisions on board, and will when she

He Can Build an Airship That
Would Cross tho Ocean In Two
Days.
Alberto Santos-Dumont, who is
now in this country, expresses conf
dence of being able to build an air-
ship that would cross the ocean in
two days.
The Aero club of America has act
ed as the aeronaut's agent in build
ing the big shed at Brighton, where
his airship will be exhibited.
"My plans are rather indefinite"
said the aeronaut. II cannot agree
to make the trip around the statue
of Liberty unless suitable sum of
money is offered to remunerate me
for the expense. do not think 1
shall make many ascensions in any
case. L may travel about on the quiet
during the summer months.
'When I first became interested in
aerial navigation L discarded the
aero-plane as useless. This was n
mistake on my part, l have found,
and in the future / am going to have
them on my ship. They will not be
applied in what 1 think the old
clumsy way of making them so big
that the extra weight renders them
practically useless, but 1 have a
much neater plan which will make
an airship as steady in the wind as a
train of cars on land.
"The statement that I made when
I went away that 1 could build a
ship for $1,00O,0O0 that would cross
the ocean in two days was not wild
one by any means. 1 can do it, and
If any one or more persons will sup
ply the million / will keep my word"
The Aero club of America was or
ganized shortly after the Brazilian
aeronaut left this country for France
May 1. Alexander Graham Bell is it's
president and among it's members
are many of the leading inventors
and scientists of the country. Its
avowed object is to encourage all
workers on the problem of aerial
navigation and its officers want
someone to come forward to COM
pete with Santos-Dumont.
The balloon of the Santos-Dumont
airship No. 6, in which the aeronaut's S
American experiments will be made,
is rs feet long and 1917 feet in its
| greatest diameter, tapering like n
cigar at the ends. The framework,
which hangs ii feet below the bal
loon, is 65 feet long, and the basket

~ NDECEMBER "a, 1901, there
M/V>A sailed from Port Chalmers,
EMIWB New Zealand, the good ship
MSsElA Discovery, bound on a voy-
WY age of exploration in Ant
arctic seas. The Royal Geo
graphical society and other English
scientific organizations were back of
the project of further south"
Since that time no tidings have come
from either the ship or crew, and none
have been expected, as she is not due
to return until the spring of next year.
The societies back of the voyage had
mapped out three seasons task for
the ship and crew, from which it is
expected to derive much information
of great value to the scientific world.
Capt. Scott, the commander of the
Discovery, was given minute and ex-
plicit sailing instructions, and was pro-
vided with a number of zinc cylinders
which were to be filed with the rec
ords of the progress of the expedition,
and these were to be deposited at
fixed places, including Cape Adare,
Possession island. Coulman island,
Wood bay, Franklin island and Cape
Crozier, if landing could be effected.
Beyond this point all was guess work
as to the movements of the expedi-
tion, depending entirely on the condi-
tion of the ice pack during the sum-
mer season.
While nothing has been heard or ex-
pected from the expedition since the
time of leaving New Zealand, and
while it is yet nearly year before
the date fixed for it's return, yet, to
guard against the disaster which expe-
ditions into the great frozen seas of
either the north or south are at all
times exposed to, the same societies
that started the Discovery on her
