Hall IOunu open WdLer to the nOrLn extending the whole length of the straits, from north to south. Reference to the fogs, so frequently referred to by the explorer, is also made by Hall. "The open water appeared as dark spot on white field. Fifteen minutes afterward it was covered by an impen- etrable fog-a phenomenon never ob- served before in Winter.'' Anything that could cause that fog" says MT Reed. must be of the ordinary. If the earth were solid, and the ocean ex- tended to the pole, or connected with land surrounding the pole, there would be nothing to produce that fog. It was caused by the warm air coming from
 the interior of the earth"
 Greeley wrote about open water and bordering ice-walls with the ship travelling between. Kane could not im- agine what became of the ice; it ap- parently went, he thought-to an open space in the north, and for seven hours the tide was from the north, being no slack water, thus showing that it did not come from the pole. If the tide came from the pole, says MT Reed "they should have had low tide at the expiration of six hours. The tide and wind bringing no ice during all that time, shows plainly there was none to bring" =..

top, or as far as adjustment permits. On the explanation that the earth is hollow, the needle worked just as it should have. Had it worked different ly, it would have been wrong."
 WHAT IS A WATER-SKY?
 Every arctic explorer is much inter- ested in this phenomena. As the auth or writes: "it is not a whim, but a fact, and northern explorers depend upon it as absolutely reliable" Also, "Nansen and his companion, Johanson, invaribly depended upon the appear ance of the sky to deteremine the con- dition of the water, or ice on the earth ahead. They always found land, ice and water, just as the sky indicated they should" The author declares that "the same sort of sky is seen in the Antarctic regions as in the Arctic" and "the condition of the surface in that country is reflected in the sky so accurately that any one can understand it." and adds, "would it not reflect fire in the interior of the earth as cor rectly, and thus account for an aurora?"
 So many opinions have been advanced about the Aurora Borealis, and the lazy portion of the worlds inhabitants ac- cept what everyone else accepts. Mir Reed-the author r-does not agree with those who think that it is an accumu- lation of electricity, or magnetic force, around the poles. He believes that it is the reflection upon the clouds. ice and snow of a burning volcano, prair- ie, or forest-fre in the interior of the earth. The light shining through smoke, dust, or colored material in the air-such as colors snow, for instance, would reflect different colors. The flames shoot up, and are sucked, whirled or blown in all directions. This produ- ces the fanciful movement in the sky"
 Bernacchi compared the aurora to a great searchlight directed towards the earth from the depths of infnity.''
 The Innuits, also Explorers, declare "that they heard noises, pufing sounds from the aurora during a display" This seems to confirm the theory that the aurora is fire, or volcano in the interior.

DEAD WATER.

The mystery of "dead-water" was also great one to explorers. Accord ing to Nansen they could get "drink- ing-water from the surface, yet the water from the bottom cock of the engine-room was too salt to be used for the boiler. The dead water mani- fests itself in the form of larger or smaller ripples or waves stretching across the wake, one behind the other, sometimes as far forward as amidship."
 MT Reed asks, "what is dead-Water? Water that has no current? The nly theory that can present is, the dead water was at point where the center of gravity was extremely strong; the salt water, being heavier than the fresh, was drawn to the earth with such force that the fresh water could not penetrate it, and laid as separate and distinct upon it as cream upon a pan of milk. This dead water must have been about halfway round the

METEORS.

The meteors lalso form theme for discussion which MT Reed takes up. The belief that they are detached from stars, planets, or comets, and sent sail ing through space, is all exploded. fool ish theory with him. They are noth- ing more nor less, he declares, "than rocks thrown up from the earth by an exploding volcano. All meteors that have struck the earth come out of the earth, internally, or externally. When analysed, they show in ingredients that are not found on earth"

How to avoid catching colds.

As every one is liable to catch cold
and as colds are very dangerous because
they terminate in chronic throat or lung
diseases, every one should be interest
ed in earning to avoid colds. The way
is simple. Never sleep too cold, never
fall asleep in cold room, or while sit
ting in a cold draft. No one ever
catches cold while the body and mind
are active, no matter how cold one may
get. If you are suffering from cold
or it's effects, Rydale's Cough Elixir ia
