1905, in the Roosevelt, specially con-
structed ship, and went north past Cape
Sabine. His plan was to winter about
500 miles south Of the pole and from
that point to make his dash for the
object of twenty years fighting. He
has not succeeded, but he has brought
man within 200 miles Of the extreme
point of the earth and has established
new record in Arctic exploration.
The problem of the geographical pole,
it is evident, is to be solved by the
methods of the sapper and miner, each
new applicant for the honor reducing
the distance by few miles. The first
polar expedition of the nineteenth CEN
fury fell short Of the pole nearly 600
miles, but that was q long advance
over the first one recorded, in the six
teenth century, when the pole kept
1900 miles of ice and water between
itself and the discoveries. The last
decade has seen great advance into the
hitherto impenetrable north. Nansen
reduced the intervening distance to
261 miles, the Duke d'Abruzi cut twen-
ty-four miles from Nansen 8 record, and
now Peary has made an additional cut
Of thirty-seven miles. The pole is get
ting in close quarters.
What is to be accomplished by the
actual landing of man in the underlined
region known as the north pole is not
actually agreed upon by scientists.
Some have contended that there would
be an open sea there. Others have
suggested the possibility of land, not
covered with ice, tho Nansen has some
what discounted the theories of Nor
densjold in that particular. All the
explorers have been animated by the
desire to stand first on that part of the
earth where there is neither latitude
nor longitude. ~
It is the nature Of man to investig gate
and propel himself into every portion
Of the earth, and the more difficult of
access the region the more he has de-
termined to conquer it. This has been
as true of tropical as of Arctic regions.
1t is as true of the desert of Sahara
as of the highest mountains on the
earth s surface. Conquest, exact known
edge or experiment for science sake
have animated nearly all nineteenth
century explorations. ...

The Tall and Short Man Again.

The statuesque dame who sweeps
thru ladies' outftting shops showing
off mantles and gowns, has, according
to the Chicago Inter-Ocean, her coun-
terpart in the sterner sex. Here are
the measurements for the perfect man
from the tailor IS point of view: Height,
s feet 6 inches; waist, 80 inches; chest,
SO inches. The length Of the leg should
be one-half the height minus two
inches; the length Of the arm one-half
the height minus 4 inches.
The chest measurement is most i'm
portant. The strong man can never be
well dressed because his shoulder mus
cles get in the way and his calves in
terfere with the hang Of his trousers.
But do not be deceived into believing
you are a strong man because your
z"pants' don't fit. It may be because
you are bow-legged or knock-kneed.
The main objection to a six-foot man
seems to be that when you put him in
a frock coat the back Of it is too
much like a draped pillar. If he is
below the ideal measurements as to
height the effect Of a bolt of cloth on
end is produced.
The short man, however, has the adj
vantage of the long man. He can. be
built up from one to two inches, where
as the tall man cannot be cut down
without surgical aid such as would
render his ever again wearing clothes
matter Of extreme uncertainty.
