We were but 100 miles from
the pole. but there was nothing TO re-
iieve the mental strain of the icy de-
spaIr. The wind came with the same
satanic cut FROM the west. There had
been little drift, but the ice before us
displayed signs of recent activity. IL
was more irregular, with an open crack
here and there. but the slcds glided
with less friction. and the dreary dogs
maintained better speed under rising
tails.
With teeth set aud newly sharpened
resolutions. we set out for that last lOO
miles Some dogs had gone into the
stomachs of their hungry companions
but there still remained sufficient
pull of well tried brute force for each
sled. and. though their noisy vigor had
been lost In the long drag. they still
broke the frigid silence with an occa-
sional outburst. A little fresh enthusi-
assn from the drivers was quickly fol
lowed by canine activity.
We were In good trim TO cover dis
lance economically. The sledges were
light: our bodies were thin. All the
muscles had shriveled. but the dogs
retained much OF their strength. Thus
stripped for the last lap. one horizon
after another was lifted.
In the forced effort which followed
we were frequently overheated. The
temperature was steady at A degrees
below zero f.. but perspiration came
with ease and a certain amount OF
pleasure. Later. however, there FOL
lowed a train Of suffering for many
days. The delight Of the birdskln
shirt was changed for the chill OF the
wet blanket
Fortunately. ut this time the sun
was warm enough TO dry the furs IN
about three days If dashed TO the sun
nv side of the sled. In these last days
we felt more keenly the pangs Of per
SEPARATION than In all our earlier adj
ventures.
The amber colored goggles we're per
slstently used. aud they afforded
protection 10 the eyes which was quite
a revelation. but In spite Of every pre-
caution our distorted. frozen. burned
and withered faces lined a map of the
hardships en- route.
We were curious looking sayages.
The perpetual glitter induced squirt
which distorted the face in remark
able manner. The strong light reflect
ed from the crystal surface threw the
muscles about the eye into state OF
chronic contraction. The pupil was
reduced TO n mere pinhole.
There was no end OF trouble at hand
in endeavoring 10 keep the windows
OF the soul open, and all OF the effect
was run together in a set expression
Of hardship and wrinkles which should
be called the boreal squint.
This boreal squInt is 4 part OF tue
