SCIENTIST EXPLAINS MESSAGE
BY CYRUS c. ADAMS.

(Member of American Geographical So
ciety.)
Copyright. 1909. by New York Times)
New York-(Special.) 1.-The forego-
ing dispatch, though condensed, tells
clearly the leading facts in the story,
not only of Peary's journey to the
north pole, but also OF o remarkably
fast sledge trip over the Ice of the
open polar seas.
The dispatch says that the Roose-
welt passed the winter of 190S-1909 at
Cape Sheridan, on the coast of Grant
Land. The vessel had threaded the
comparatively narrow channels, sew
eral hundred miles in length, lead
ing from Cape Sabine to the Arctic
ocean.
This journey is apt to be difficult
and sometimes impossible, but the
conditions were evidently favorable.
The ship that disappeared In the fog
while the crew of Peary's auxiliary
steamer Erik were watching its de-
parture from Etah made good pas
sage through the long channels, and
arrived safely on the shores OF the
sea, where the explorer was to start
on his sledges for the north pole.
Too Far To Eastward.
But at Cape Sheridan Peary was
not as far west as he probably had
hoped to be. He had announced his
intention, in the previous year, of
making his sledge route to the pole
along some meridien much further 70
the west of his route in 1906. when he
made the highest north attained UT
to that time-S7 d. 6 m.
On that occasion he was greatly I'm
peded by the rapid drift OF the ice To
the east which a little retarded his
progress north. and worse still, car

PRESSED HARD
Coffee's Weight on Old Age.

When prominent men realize the in.
furious effects of coffee and the change
in health that Postum can bring, they
are glad to lend their testimony for
the benefit of others.
A superintendent of public schools in
North Carolina says:
MY mother since her early child
hood, was an inveterate coffee drinker
and had been troubled with her heart
for number of years, and com.
planned OF that weak all over feeling
and sick stomach.
Some time ago | was making an Of
fcial visit to distant part of the
country and took dinner with one of
the merchants of the place. no
ticed a somewhat peculiar flavor of
the coffee. and asked him concerning
1t. He replied that 1t was Postum.
Il was so pleased with II, that after
the meal was over, bought a pack
age to carry home with me, and had
wife prepare some for the next meal
The whole family liked 1t so well, that
we discontinued coffee and used
Postum entirely
81 had really been at times very anx-
ious concerning my mothers condition,
but we NOTICED that after using
Postum for'a short time, she felt so
much better than she did prior to its
use, and had little trouble with her
heart and no sick stomach; that the
headaches were not so frequent, and
her general condition much improved.
This continued until she was as well
and hearty as the rest of us.

self and the other members of the fam.
