AN ARCTIC MEAL.
The Eskimo Method of Preparing q
Supper ON Polar Sheet
of Ice. N..E

Dogs were unhitched and fastened,
as usual, and then each of the Eskimos
climbed over the icefoot with his snow
knife and disappeared behind the para
pet, where the other two were already
cutting snow blocks. / fastened my
dogs, got out their ration of pe1nmi-
can, cut it up, and fed them, standing
up with whip in hanc to see that there
was no bullying, and that each dog got
his share, says Outing.
Then l unpacked the cooker, oil can
and kitchen box, passing them up the
icefcot as high as could reach. l did
not wait for the completion of the ;gloo
to commence my preparations for sup
per, but with few strokes of the spade
eNcavated niche in the snowbank, put
the cooker in out of the wind, filled the
lamp with oil and the boiler with ice,
placed few snow blocks around it for
still better shelter, and lighted up.
BY the time the igloo was completed
l had enough water melted for the tea,
and supper was entirely ready by the
time my men had fed the dogs; and
they lost no time in freeing their cloth
ing OF snow and joining me in the igloo.
Still less time was consumed in putting
away the tea and biscuit and penmmi-
can, and less again in falling off to
drea1nless slumber. E ss>

PACIFIC'S GREATEST DEPTH.
Five Miles of Rope REQUIRED to Sound
Spot One Hundred Miles
from Guam. ... Il: .

The soundings made in the Moser

were accompanied by great excite
ment. It was on beautifully clear
day, the twentieth Of February, that
the Albatross approached within lit
tie more than 100 miles of Guam, re-
ports Leslie's Monthly. The vessel lay
to, and preparations were made for
one of the frequent soundings. At
length, the silence was broken by a
brief order and the tinkling of bell.
Slowly the machinery of the engine
began to work and slowly the tough
wire rope began to sink beneath the
water. Foot by foot, fathom by
fathom, it slid from the ship. One
thousand two thousand, three and
then four thousand fathoms disap-
peared. The record was passed. Five
miles Of rope! ....-.>
1t was an anxious moment. for the
strain caused by the immense length
and weight of the wire rope on the
machinery was tremendous. But
everything held firm; and at length,
when the mark recorded 4, S13 fathoms,
or 2s,s7S feet, practically the height
of Mount Everest, bottom was touch ed.
1t was an added triumph for American
geographical science.

TIE RED MANS AUTOMOBILE.
Big. Fat Indians Pushed Around in
Baby Carriages by Their Long,
Suffering SGuavvs.

This is the season of the year
when the Indian chiefs come in from
the reservations to see the Great

are score of them in the city now.
\ group Of half a dozen standing on
the curb watching an automobile re-

ing the story Col Bill Sterrett used
to tell about the man who went into
the Indian Territory to sell baby
carriages.
Everybody said he was crazy. 1t
was admitted that there was fine
crop of babies in the territory, but
no one could see what the squaws,
who were used to packing their Off
springs on their backs, could do with
baby carriages. ....... Il
Still, orders began to come back,
first for dozens, and then for car
loads, and finally Sterrett went up
to investigate. He went into one of
the Indian villages.
'And I'll be dashed,' said Col. Bill,
"if 1 didn't see dozen big, fat In
dams sitting in baby carriages, all
scrouged up, while the squaws were
pushing them around. The baby car
riage man had made the Indians be-
lieve that baby carriages were the
right kind of pleasure rigs for the

Men Teachers Scarce.

The number Of men employed as

country isslowly but steadily decreas-
ing. According to William L. Harris,
United States commissioner Of educa-
ton, the percentage Of male teachers
in the public schools in 1870 was Al per
cent. In 1900 the percentage was only
80. The reasons for this decrease are
easily found. The work does not offer
as great Inducements to men as it once
did. Teachers in secondary schools are
now required to be specialists, and the.
salaries are not enough to attract men
to make. life. career in this field. .

But those fellows don't take an hour
for luncheon. Time is too valua BILE

Then they are off again. The men

occasionally the canoes are punched

SEAMLESS TOY BALLOONS.
An American Novelty Lately Added

all have. seams in them. They are
made in sections and united on a
machine something like sewing ma

There is a certain percentage of

THE FACE AND THE COLLAR.
"a Stout Man May Make Himself Look
Thin by Adopting the Proper
Neckyyear,

Men who do not want to look any fat
Ter in the face than they can help have
AN easy means of accomplishing their
purpose. Not all of them are aware
of the effect that may be created by
the form of a collar or cravat, says the
New York Sun.
Ihe stout man who wants to look
as thin as he can," said the haberdash-
er's clerk, fought to wear tie of the
kind known as the four-in-hand. Pref
'erably it should be dark in color and
drawn tight. That carries down the
line of the face and lengthens it to a
degree that tends to make the face look
thinner.
Another aid to making man look
thin is in the height of his collar. Stout
men who want to look thin should wear
high collars and closed ones. Any col
har that opens in front makes one look
stance. Such collars are becoming to
sthe thin men.
The fat man should avoid the kind
of tie that has horizontal effect. This
will add pounds to his appearance-in
mis- face at least.
Ion the contrary, this cross effect
will make the thin man look stout.
Jae broad plastron scarfs, as they are
called, have little effect on a mans
looks one way or the other. When he
wears them it is the collar that makes
the difference.
He should, therefore, see that he
wears high one that does not open,
If he wants to look as thin as possible,
AN open collar will produce that effect
for him.

Journalism" in Turkey; the journalism

Sometime ago a. travelling company
attempted to play ''Othello' in Con-
sstantdnople, and the play was presented
fo the censor as a mere matter of form.
1t was not supposed that he would find
any objection to it, but he did, and a
very serious objection, moreover. He
"objected strongly to the statement that
Othello, was sent to Cyprus, for the
political reason that as the island be-
ionged to Turkey no Venetian had a
right there, and the manager of the
company had to send Othello to some
other island before the performance
was allowed.
1t is rule of the sultan that no ruler

and the newspapers have to state such
occurrences in a very careful manner.
The Fourth Estate has found in news

methods employed to evade the facts of
Toya! assassinations.
When King Humbert was assassinat-
sed at Menza, the Turkish newspapers
announced this sad event in this form:
King Humbert left the hall amid the
frantic cheers of the people. The king,
much affected, bowed several times,
and to all appearances was imme date

Forage Crop and Fertility.

Those states which are noted for
the production of forage crops not
only have maintained the original
fertility of the soil, but they spend
for commercial fertilizers less than
.one per cent. of the annual value
of their crops, while those states
which pay least attention to forage
crops have impoverished the soil and
spend annually for fertilizers from
five to nine per cent. of the total
value of their crops.
