written by Fred Y. Greene, IT,, and is
the kind Of story to take right hold OF

great hopes of lettering your condition

YOUR expectations dashed TO the ground
not by one blow, but by a quick sue
.cession OF several?
Well this is the sort OF thing that
goes ON all about Us in the great cities.
Sometimes men square their shoulders
TO the burden and bear 1t grimly. other
men weaken under It. and they and
their families become a burden on the
community; still others seek a solution

Comforts of a Snow House

r Of the dome-shaped hut; then, on
the principles of architecture that APP
ply to domes, whether made Of store
or snow, the beehive house is com
pleted. Two men car in an hour build
a house large enough for eight to
sleep in. When the house is com
pleted a doorway Is cut in it's side
near the ground, skins are spread over
the floor, one brushes himself as clear
of snow as possible and crawls inside.
The oil lamps are then lit, and the
house Is soon brought to a tempera-
ture considerably above the freezing
point; for snow is n Of the best
known nonconductors of heat, and the
intense cold Of the outside penetrates
the walls only to a very slight degree.
But when the house gets warm the in
ner side of the snow dome begins to
thaw, and the water formed is sucked
into the snow, blotter fashion; when
this water penetrates far enough into
the snow to meet the cold from the
outside it freezes, and your snow
house is turned into an ice dome SO
strong that a polar bear can crawl
over it without danger Of breaking
through.
When once inside the house the Es-
kimos strip naked to the waist and
hang their clothes to dry on pegs in
the wall. On some journeys we had
sheet-iron stoves (procured from
whalers in former years., which we
installed in the snow houses, and in
which we built roaring fires.

The experience of those who tent In

months is to be summarized about as
follows:
When the tent has been pitched the
Temperature within it is some Is or 20
degrees higher than outside, or 80 de-
grees below If it is 80 below in the
open; one is damp and warm from
the strenuous exercise of the day, but
tsoon becomes cold, and shivers; one
,crawls into his sleeping bag and
makes entries in the diary. clumsily
with ones mittens on; the heat from
ones body forms hoar frost on every
thing in the tent, and congeals in the
sleeping bag, so that it becomes stiff
and heavy with ice during the days
travel, when it freezes. and soaking
wet when one gets into it at night
and thaws it out; this in turn vets
ones clothing, and the trousers and
coat freeze stiff as sole leather when
one breaks camp in the morning; the

AS tools of her trade the Seneca carries an equipment
the like of which was never heretofore to be found on
any one vessel. Foremost among these aids are a varied
assortment of explosives in various forms, for use in
blowing up d~erelicts. The capacious magazine in the
hold of the Seneca can accommodate sufficient dynamite
and gun cotton to blow up a whole feet of ships, but 1t
is intended, of course, to use this destructive energy only
in the interest of humanity. For most of her derelict
destroying operations the Seneca will make use of the
standard United States navy mine and the appliances
provided include all the necessary electric cables, etc,
for exploding these mines.

to render the ship thoroughly distinctive in appearance.
The hull has been painted a dark green, with upper and
lower shear holdings light in color from stem to stern;
the upper works and boats are white; and the spars and
smokestack yellow, the latter having a black band at
the top and red, white and blue vertical stripes to the
lower guy band. AS if this unusual color were not suf-
fcient to arrest attention, the foremost carries a signal
yard, from each arm Of which is displayed a black spheri-
cal shape about three feet in diameter.
At night the Seneca displays a distinguishing signal
in the form Of two occulting truck lights, red on the
foremost and white on the mainmast, with simultaneous
15-second flashes and 15second intervals. Finally, a
powerful wireless telegraph outfit enables communication

Young Hunters Lose Sleep

Now that the hunters are return
ing from the mountains many are the
tales told of pranks played.
One old hunter was telling his
friends the other day of a prank he
played on a young and energetic hunt
er from New York, a man who be-
lieved he knew all there was to be
known of wild animals of the woods.
Every day this ambitious young
hunter would go on the hunt for deer
alone and return with tales Of the
footprints and other signs he had
seer Of deer within a short distance Of
the camp. Every depression among
the leaves on the ground. every leaf
turned over and every twig snapped
was a sure sign, to his mind, that deer
had been on the ground, perhaps a
whole herd Of them.
Early, very early, one morning the
old hunter arose quietly and took with
him the hoof of a deer that he car
ried with him for luck-a big bucks
hoof-and crept to the tent OF the
young hunter, where he made imprints
on the soft ground all around it. Many
times around it went the footprints,
and then off into the woods.
When the young hunter arose in
the morning and saw the prints, clear
and distinct, he said nothing, but de
cided that he would sit up that night
and shoot the big buck and SO gel
ahead of his companions; especially
the old hunter, who thought he knew
so much.
He sat up that night and many 9th
er nights in the bitter cold while hil
companions slept peacefully and com
fortably under good warm blankets
The old hunter, after six nights, was

service. The Seneca has her permanent station at
Tompkinsville, N. Y, and her cruising district will COM
prise all that portion of the North Atlantic ocean be-
tween Portland, Me, on the north and Charleston, S. c.
on the south. OF course the vessel will go beyond these
limits of occasion demands, but the Gulf stream carries
practically all derelicts within this radius.

merciful and told the young man that
it was all a joke.
Sending a young hunter on a cold,
windy night to a tree on the edge of
a pond a mile or so off and telling him
to sit there during the night, as on
such a night the deer, and perhaps
moose, were sure to appear is an
other favorite scheme. or course he
is told that the rest of his companions
are to be in other trees a few rods
distant, but he is to be sure not to
call, and if he did they would refuse
to answer him. Then his companions
go back to camp and sleep well and
long while he sits all night in a tree.
