Of negotiating that point of mystery,
and it Is quite possible that they be-
lieved they might reach it in a ship.
They were without the knowledge Of
Arctic geography now the property OF
almost every reader, and, consequently,
had very primitive ideas about the sue
cessful method of attacking the Pole.
During the nineteenth century the Arc
tic regions were fairly well charted up
to the eighty-third parallel, and dur
ing the last two decades Of the century
attempts to reach the Pole by various
more or less scientific and novel plans
were made.
These attempts, made at great sacri-
dee Of life and at great expense, show
ed that man may get y the Pole, but
that the natural conditions must be
favorable. Sir John Franklin essayed
the northwest passage "a 1847, and his
whole expedition was lost yet they
were 1000 miles from the North Pole.
Thirty search expeditions, costing
about 100000. were salt ont " Great
Britain and the United States during
the succeeding thirty-N3e years TO re-

Peary has surpassed his own former
efforts. In 1902, he exceeded his own
best performance in northing by thirty
one miles, and now dwarfs that SPLEEN
did work by going 1877 miles nearer the
Pole than he had ever before been, and
about thirty-seven miles further than
his closest competitor, Captain Cagni.
II Peary can equal this ratio in anoth-
er dash, the North Pole, the greatest
geographical prize, will. be his, for he

Africa. A northeast passage was flrst
looked for, and then a passage by way
of the northwest. Although the explor.
ers encountered floating Ice they do not
appear to have started out with the
same respect for the frozen barrier
they subsequently admitted.
About the middle Of the sixteenth
century Edward vi. sent out Sir Hugh
Willoughby to find a northeast passage.
It appears to have reached Nova Zem-
bla, and was subsequently lost Forty
years later Barentz reached II deg,
named the great sea he discovered
Spitzbergen, had some exciting expert
ences, but failed to find an open pass
age across the North Pole. Henry Hud-
son tried to find the passage between
Spitzbergen and Nova Zembla, which
would lead across the Pole, but, al
though he failed, he was the first ex-
plorer to get into the sos of north lati-
tude. He reached 81 deg. north In
1907, and 22O years were to pass before
Parry surpassed this record, when, In
1927, the English navigator reached 81
deg. 46 min.
The quest Of the Pole Is Of compare,
lively recent origin, II the early at
tempts to effect a northwest passage
are not put in that category. Barentz,
Willoughby. Chancellor and Hudson

TIPS IN JAPAN.

There the Innkeeper IL Not Forget
ten When Guest Goes Away.
IF you hotelkeepers should ever Be :
told Of the japanese method Of tipping
why we would all have to take to tho
woods" said a far eastern traveller, In
the New Orleans Picayune. In a Jap
anese hotel you give the proprietor the
biggest tip Of all when leaving and
grade the other tips accordingly
when your bill is handed to you 1t
is customary to wrap up in separate
piece Of paper an amount approxlmat'
ing about one-fifth of the whole account
and give that to the worthy innkeeper'
together with the regular amount re-
quired Of you by his account, which you
indorse In the folded bill. Then you
wrap up smaller sums in smaller pieces
of paper and parcel these Christmas
packages out among the servants WIZ
have waited on you.
''This tip to the boniface Is caileu

explain its usage after this manner ol
reasoning:
"All hotel charges In Japan are lofcsu
by law to be very low, so that even LILO
very poor man who finds himself ..
the road Of nights can get fooo CIV
shelter for nominal sum. Inc tND
man has to pay no more than the W

"Since the hotel man could not maA'

The "Making-Up" Process.

Making up" always excites the Gu
riosity Of the matinee girl, and she
wonders how it is done. While the au-
dience is gathering downstairs and
looking over the program, the actors
are scattered throughout their dress
ing rooms going through the mysterious
process by which they shake of the
attributes Of children Of earth and be-
come the dazzling, the intangible spirit
folk Of the genii land. !.
The first part Of the process, suppos-
ing you are young woman, necessi-
tates the removal OF, your outer gar
ments, and the DOMINIC Of sacque or
kimono; then the binding of your hair
tightly away from your face, and an
application Of cold cream to your fea-
lures. It is impossible for anyone to
be even passably good looking at this
stage There are various rules about
the application Of makeup to narrow
and broad-faced persons, low and high
foreheaded ones, which I should not
attempt to 60 into even II I knew
them. But the general idea is to put
the red" on after the cold cream, blend
it In with the hare's foot and then put
on the powder. I forget whether you
do" your eyes before or after this; at
any rate, when you do that you make
various lines and shadows and make
an effort to be as beautiful an possible.
There are infinite little touches Of the
blue and white and red by which the
makeup artist can produce any eject
she wishes upon her face. TO quote

''The North Pole" said Commander
Robert E. Peary before starting on his
latest expedition, sis the last great
geographical prize which the world has
to offer to adventurous man; the prize
for which the best men of the strong
est most enlightened, most adventur-
GUS nations of the earth have been
struggling unsuccessfully for nearly
four centuries; the trophy which the
grandest nation Of them all would be
proud to win"
Peary's hopes of the prize are found
ed upon his extraordinary knowledge
Of the Arctics. He spent the greater
part of ten years in his reconnaissance
of the Great Ice Cap of Greenland.
Having conquered this immense Arctic
Sahara, he turned his thoughts toward
the attainment of the North Pole in
1897.
Following Ia the nOrthernmost record
