NEW NORTH POLE HUNTER
"Musher" Will Be There the FrSs When a Gold Stampede
 Is Started

There is a popular belief in the er- will be discovered by musher and not by any scientific polar expedition, says the Sunset Magazine. This belief is based on the conviction that a gold stampede will eventually bs started toward north latitude 90 degress and that the mushers will rush tn where arctic explorers have feared to tread So completely unknown to fame is this newcomer in the race for the pole thas to the majority of people tho name sus. gests nothing but cereal breakfast food.
 Gilbert Parker, the novelist, who finds his most congsnial theme in French Canadian life, has made his read. era familiar with ''Nazcha-t'-en!" the cry with which drivers of dog teams urge forward their pantiag animals. Frsnch- h-Canadian trappexs were among the earliest white men in tho far northo west, and American prospectors on ths Yukon soon learned to goad their dogs on with the same cry. without however, understanding the French, which. in their mouths, was rapidly corrupted to ''Muchon!" to this day an Alaska dog drivers equivalent for Gee up!"
 Dog drivers generally rush with the team and therefore from "Mush-on" has come the noun musher, used all over Alaska and the Yukon territory to des- ignate trailsman. The musher is gen. orally prospector, stampeder and trails. man all rolled into one, and Alaska trails are such uncertain quantities that he has frequently to make his own prece- dents over newly frozen sea and track. less snow. The musher achieves most of his stampeding to new gold fields dur" ing the arctic winter, for then the rigid sea becomes highway and mighty rivers need no bridging.

SPEAKING WITH EMPHASIS.
Calisthenics Accompany the Words of Neapolitans When Dis
 cussing Weather.

Give a Neapolitan pair of dumb bells and ask him if he thinks it is like ly to rain, and before his answer is finished he will have taken enough healthful exercise to last him all day" Once, says the London Clarion, a trave eler sat with a friend in cafe at Naples. Near them were two Italians engaged in conversation. The younger of the two seemed much excited.
 With his hands he made reaching and clinging motions, as if climbing. Then he seemed to be groping for cherries in the air, as he reached right and left above his head. Next, without slacken- Ing his conversation, he put the thumb and foref1nger of his left hand together, and holding them befors his eyes, went through the careful movements of one threading a small needle, and all the time he talked.
 Suddenly his manner changed. He made overland motions, as if throwing something. Then he apparently initiated a swimmer, and immediately afterward described several circles with his left hand, giving the impression of rapid ly revolving wheel.
 Finally he leaned forward, and with his right hand acted the part of per- son endeavoring to put key into key hole.
 The traveller was overcome by curios- lty. He turned to>his friend, who un- derstood Italian, and asked him what the plot of the story waS.
 "Oh, nothing" replied the other. They're chatting about the weather" "
