THE BATTLING POLE.

The world Is up against another dis
appointment. Robert Il. Pcary has
signally failed in his splendid effor,
10 reach the North Pole, These
sudden dashes" to that slippery and
elongated fixture are becoming mo-
notonous In their dismal failure. The
doughty commodore comes back with
the stilted glory OF having gotten the
next closest to the Pole, but the elus-
i've magnet seems to have repellaut
force the closer one gets to It, And
upon this hypothesis. the man who
shall get squarely next to It, will
be hurled into space and his report
with him, and an eager world denied
the story of fruition for which 1t has
been waiting these untold thousands
OF years. Darn the Pole. anyway!
There is one comforting conclusion In
all this history OF disastrous failure.
and that Is, that when the apex is
definitely located, II It ever is. II will
be at the core OF another American
possession. There is lot Of salts
faction In knowing that we shall be
the owners OF the North Pole, on ac-
count OF the extreme rarity Of the
thing. II has no duplicate on earth,
II It exists at ell.

The Organ That Enables the Hemi.
spheres to Act In Harmony.

The Organ That Enables the Hemi.
spheres to Act In Harmony.
Near the base of every well organ
lied human brain there is situated a
curious little spongy body called the
corpus callosum. This all important
little organ consists of a double chain
Of white nerve fibers, and it is through
these that the two portions (hemi-
spheres) of the brain are enabled to act
in harmony by being continually
brought into anatomical and physiolog-
ical relations with each other.
Several years ago a well known Phil
adelphia physician and surgeon, DR..
A. H. Stevens, made the announcement
that, in his belief, the corpus callosum
was the seat Of the soul. His peculiar
ideas were given quite an airing
through the press at that time, but the
whole theory fell pretty fiat when DR..
A. F. Sawyer of San Francisco proved
that a certain west coast worthy had
survived twenty years after having the
entire corpus callosum shot out Of his
thought tank and that another had
lived eleven years after sustaining a
similar injury. The psychologists were
pretty well agreed that a mans life
would terminate the moment his soul
made its exit on the lead of a pistol
cartridge. It was these well attested
cases Of men living after losing the cor
pus callosum that caused DR.. Stevens
'soul theory to relapse into obscurity.

a year, has many friends here: and the
same can be said of the groom. Mr..
Krusee was formerly engaged in the
newspaper business in the Black Hills

as foreman tor some of the large cattle
outfits in Montana. He has land on
Spring creek north where a cattle and
sheep ranch will be established in the
spring where Mr.. and Mrs. Krusee
will reside as soon as the weather gets
a little warmer. These happy young
people were the recipients of many
fine presents. and are receiving the best
wishes of their friends in the city.
May they prosper and have happiness
all their lives, is the wish Of the PRESS
