An Omen Mind.

In these days of electric lights it
seems strange that there are American
born persons still unfamiliar with their
USE but occasionally one turns up
Here is one who turned up brightly
as the lights do not always do.
"NOw," said the economical head Of
the household to the coal-heayer, after
you get this load all in, put out this
light"
Half an hour later the family was
disturbed by a strong odor Of escap-
ing gas. Mr.. Black, surmiSing that
the coal man had eXtinguished the
light by blowing it out went to the
cellar to investigate, and found that
his surmise was correct. Just as he
opened the windows to let out the gas
the cOal-heaver drove into the yard
with another load. Mr.. Black prompt
ly escorted him to the cellar, gave him
lesson in the use Of gas, and ex-
planned the dangers likely to follow
the informal method of extinguish-
ing it.
The man, evidently deeply interest
ed, listened intently.

tie lecture was over, there's always

ARCTIC EXPLORATION.

Is the Object Sought Really Worth All
the Time, Ex pense and Trouble?
Mr.. Peary is going on another hunt
for the North Pole. The layman Is
sometimes apt to pause and ask him
self whether, after all, the business of
Arctic exploration is worth while. The
history of such exploration is a story
of long effort
AS long ago as 1868 Sir Hugh VIII
loughby, with several other command
ers, led the way into the frozen north
in the eastern hemisphere. 1t is prob
able that they reached seventy-two de-
grees north latitude. In the centuries
following, navigator after navigator
went into the north either in the east
ern or western hemisphere. The names
OF Barents, Henry Hudson, John
Davis, Frobisher and William Bailm
are written on the worlds map, and
their explorations were. without doubt.
of specific benefit to commerce and the
scientific world. Modern exploration
may be said to have begun with Perry,
who in 1927 reached 81 degrees 45 min
utes north The most memorable eXpe-
dition of the nineteenth century was
that of Sir John Franklin, who in 1913
sailed for the north with two ships and
1873 men. His expedition was lost. In
the next twelve years no less than
twenty one expeditions from England
or America were organized to search
for Franklin and make explorations to-
ward the pole. After that, polar eX-
plOrations lapsed for a time but about
1879 II was renewed with fresh yigor,
During the century England, Germany,
Austria, America, Scandinavia ana
even Italy have sent explorers, and the
achievements Of Kane, Hayes, Han,
Greeley, Wellman, De Long, Nansen
and Peary are too well known to need
snecific mention. Hundreds of thou
sands of dollars have been spent, many
lives lost. men have suffered untold
hardships, even being driven to canni-
balism. And for what? ask the doubt
ers. Merely that they may reach an
imaginary point on the top OF the
world-a point which, if found, would
benefit nobody except the explorer
himself and the lecture bureaus No
one has yet reached it. The man who
made the nearest approach to the goal
was Captain Cagni Of the Duke or
Abruzzis expedition, reaching 50 de-
grees 33 minutes north,
The doubter who is compelled Willy
nilly to observe the actions Of eXplor-
ers may take comfort in the thought
that he Is at least observing a line OF
honest endeavor, that any increase OF
orr knowledge Of the world is not al
together worthless.-Womans HOMO

Poor old "Uncle Dan" Rhodes! That
was a bitter day for him, but he was
equal to the occasion. Sending for the
obscure young man. he said to him:
"Mr. Hanna Gussie loves you; that
Is my only reason for accepting you as
her future husband. You are poor. I'll
fix 1t so Gussie can live as she has
been accutomed to and 1 suppose

work she was as happy as a queen for
some years.-Pittsburg Dispatch.

to try to can pumpkin for summer pies.

cipe for canning pumpkin: Use a
granite or earthenware kettle. Peel
and cut up the pumpnin into small
squares, add just little water to start
the cooking. Stew over n slow fire and
stir often, cooking the pumpkin until
we'll done; then me water which has
been used should have all steamed
