FIRST ANTARCTIC WRECK.
since 1873 There Has Bs en- EUt Ono
Steamer Lost in al That
Vast Region.


Of all the many vessels that have en-
gagged in Antarctic exploration from the
time CT Capt. Cook. in 1773, to toe pres
ent day, the steamer Antarctic is the
only one that has ever been lost il that
vast region. To be sure, we have had
40 tidings for year from the British
ship Discovery and the Scottish steamer
Scotia, but there is 10 reason to believe
that they are lost, says the New York
Sun.
The Antarctic, which carried the
Swedish party to Graham Land, south CT
TERRA del Fuego, was Norwegian
whaler, specially built for navigation in
pack ice, and was in fine condition when
Dr. Otto Nordenskjold sailed from home,
On October 16, 1o01. The disaster which
sunk her was not due to any14hfericrity
in the boat; nor is it at all liKely that
her commander, Capt. c. A. Larsen was
at fault for the loss of his vessel.
Capt. Larsen became we'll known to
geographers in 1894 through his brill
liant explorations on the sailing VesseI
Jason. He was sent to the south polar
seals and whales, and as he did not ind
the game he was after he turned his at
tention to exploration and brought to
light 120 miles of hitherto unknown
coast line on the cast side of Graham
Land.
1t was the irony Of fate that his in
com parably better vessel, the Antarctic,
hoy n cd in
February II last in the very waters in
which he had safely cruised in his SAIL
ing vessel nine years earlier. His party
spent last winter after the wreck On
Paulet island, overlooking the waters in
which he had caught some seals in 1894.
The disaster occurred about 625 miles
southeast of Cape Horn.
It should be remembered that the
Nordenskjold exploring party was not
involved in the shipwreck itself. The
Antarctic had taken the explorers to
Graham Land in February, 1902, and left
them in Admiralty Inlet, sorae 60 miles
southwest of the place where the vessel
was crushed in the ice year later. After
participating in the summer work the
Antarctic left Nordenskjold and his five
companions at their camp Oh shore and
returned to BuenCs Ayres.
In November, 1902, the Antarctic
sailed again to take part in last sum-
mer's work and to bring the party home
at the end of the season. Then the YES
sci was crushed ar~l Nordenskiold spent
his second winter at his camp while the
ship party was ashore further north.
Of course the failure of the explorers
to return in March last caused great
anxiety. Prompt measures were taken
to relieve them when the present Ant
arctic summer dawned, and fortunately
every member of both ship and land
parties is returning home 1t will be
interesting to learn what success has
attended DR.. Nordenskjold's efforts to
extend our knowledge Of this little
known land mass.
Meanwhile the French expedition I'M
der DR.. Charcot, which was to take part
in the search, having been relieved> OF
this duty, is about to sail from Buenos
Ayres for Graham Land to carry out
it's scientific work, which includes land
exploration and biological, magnetic
and photographic Investigations.

HONEY FROM THE BEES.
1t rs Not All Good, the Best Befn%
That Made in the Spring
and Fall.

Not all honey is alike toOthsome, any
more than all bread is of uniformly ex-
cellent quality. 1t depends in both cases
upon the ability of the maker, says one
who knows. To understand good honey
making one must study the very inter-
esting habits of the bee, as exploited by
some of0the most fascinating writers,
that they have not yet gotten their
minds to the move-on point.
THE best honey is taken when the
asters and goldenrod are in blossom"
says Mrs. E. S. Starr, an authority on
the subject. Compared with honey
made when these two flowers are bloom
ing sweet clover honey is very poor.
None is lost, however, since the honey
made from the less desirable flowers is
taken from the bees and kept for their
winter necessities. These patient toll
ers may know the difference, but they
make no expression. Like good chill
dren, they eat what is set before them
and neither grumble nor ask for more.
Next to the aster and goldenrod honey
is that made in the spring. In many
instances the charming spring flowers
make as desirable honey as that which
is slipped late in the summer. Not that
bees are Invariably engaged in making
honey Indeed, that touching, if old
fashioned rhyme: How doth the little
busy bee improve each shining hour"
might well be paraphrased in an up-to-
date manner. Some of them are given
to singing. And here's an interesting
point. One who owns many swarms
and is often stung by the various mem
bers of these swarms says that only one
swarm proves poisonous. Members Of
the others sting and annoy for the time.
but the members CT this one have Il poi
sonous sting that is truly troublesome.
Just why inhabitants OF this hive should
be fitted out with such very active poi
son is q mystery.

SKIN SOFA PILLOWS.
A Fad Which, According to Report
Has Taken Eastern HOusekeep-
ers by Storm.

The woman who does not own skil
sofa pillow has not acquired the latest
| fad which was born of sorrow over tho
| death of a pet.
This pet was a calf, which had met an
untimely end, thereby awakening much
grief among the feminine members OF
the family. In the midst of their
woe it suddenly occurred to one
of the girls that, inasmuch as a
stuffed calf would be rather out
| of place in the household, the
skin might be used for some other pur-
pose. That was when the pillow idea
presented itself.
The men scoffed at the proposition and
said that it was absurd, but they had to
admit that the glossy brown skin. with
| its beautifully marked white spots, was
to handsome to be buried with the calf
SO before the last sad rites were per-
formed the body of the little Jersey was
! skinned
In due time the skin was cured,
| trimmed into shape and used to cover
an air cushion. 1t was made square,
with the exception of the corners, which
were trimmed to represent earS-three
at each corner, and tried with strips of
calfskin in bowknot. When done the
of panne velvet.
| This novel method of preserving the
pet calfs skin suggested to some one
else an idea which resulted in another
unusual pillow. On square of plain
chamois skin a fireplace was painted,
bricks and all, showing the glowing
wood, the kettle and andirons. Paper
patterns of cat and two kittens were
cut and piece of black fur was brought
| into requisition for the tabbies. The
| fur was cut the same size as the patterns,
padded slightly and glued securely to
the chamois skin. The cats were placed
at an angle that brought them to the
left of the hearthstone, facing the blaze,
and with their backs to the public-a
thoroughly domestic scene.
| The Washington Star says that some
of the newest college pillows are made
of skins. An especially handsome one
was recently fashioned out of black
and white calf skin, yellow chamois
skin strips about an eighth of an inch
wide being used to form the legend
yale" The letters were first outlined
on the pillow, then the chamois ones
were glued on. Small holes were made
with an awl at frequent intervals about
| the letters, then little brass clasps, with
nail heads, were pushed through the
| holes and the clasps spread in position
underneath. OF course this pillow is
not especially desirable from the stand
point of comfort, but it makes good
show pillow.
Calfskin and chamois skin are softer
and better adapted to useful pillows, if
properly made, than other skins. How
ever, those who are SO fortunate as to
have beautiful skins of any sort in their
possession will be able to put them to
a new use in this way.
For instance, some of the new mems
dens are upholstered with the skins of
animals, small heads and tails being
suspended from the corners to give fin
| ishing touch.

Uses Pe-Tu-na.
For Colds.

Peruna is known from the Atlantic to
the Pacific. Letters of congratulation
and commentator testifying to the
merits of Peruna as catarrh remedy
are pouring in from every State in the
Union. DR.. Hartman is receiving hun
dreds of such letters daily. All classes
write these letters, from the highest to
the lowest.
The routdoor laborer, the indoor arti-
san, the clerk, the editor, the statesman,
the preacher all agree that Peruna is
the catarrh remedy of the age. The
stage and rostrum, recognizing catarrh
as their greatest enemy, are especially
enthusiastic in their praise and testi-
mony.
Any man who wishes perfect health
must be entirely free from catarrh. Ca
tarrh is we'll nigh universal; almost ON
nipresent Peruna is the only absolute
safeguard known. A cold is the be-
ginning of catarrh. To prevent colds,
to cure colds, is to cheat catarrh out of
it's victims. Peruna not only cures ca
tarrh, but preventsit. Every household
should be supplied with this great rem
edy for coughs, colds and SO forth.
The Governor of Oregon is an ardent
admirer of Peruna. He keeps it con-

1t is time to quit the grUmbiing,
Time TO take a hopeful view,
Time TO drop the foolish notion
That the world is all askew;
There are lots of blessings yet
That the world is booked to get.
And the good Lord in His mercy's saving
some of them for you.
1t is time to quit the signing,
Time to look up with g smile,
For the good old worlds revolving
In the same old steady style;
Wicked people day by day
Close their eyes and pass away,
And there won't be any left here but the
righteous, after while.
1t is time to quit the fretting
Over trifies that go wrong;
Think of all the joys you're getting,
All the blessings. right along;
Don't sit down disheartened, sad.
Over small rebuffs you've had.
Fortune tries our spirits often, just TIC
make them good and strong.
1t is time to quit believing
That there's nothing left to do
For the ones who'd be achieving;
Every day brings something new.
Don't give up the hope to rise,
Fair ahead the future lies,
And tomorrow may be bringing jus: tie
needed chance for you.
1t is time to quit the grieving
For the good old happy days;
Il is time to quit believing
Men are sunk in sinful ways;
Still the morning may be bright,
Still sweet. dreams may come at night,
Fate has favors for the cheerful, but our
gruInbling never pays.
