FORMER GUIDE SWEARs THAT HE
NEVER REACHED TOP OF
MT. MCKINLEY.
COOK MAKES ANSWER
SAYS If ROUTE is FOLLOWED
RECORDS WILL BE FOUND
ON THE SUMMIT.

New York.-The globe Thursday
prints copy of the affidavit made by
Edwin N. Barrill, who accompanied
DR.. Frederick A. Cook at the time he
announced his reaching the summit of
Mt. Mckinley. The affidavit was made
before notary at Tacoma. Wash, and
says that Cook was not nearer the
summit than fourteen miles, and that
Barrill falsified his records to the con-
trary in a diary by Cooks order.
DIR. Cook made the following state
ment:
"The statements of Barrill are abso-
lutely false in every particular. l am
framing reply and will make it pub
lie at the earliest possible moment.
I'VE have learned that money has
been offered for information regarding
my ascent Of Mount Mckinley. l have
not paid any particular attention to
the talk regarding that trip, because
did not think it was worth while.
Il will not speak of it until Barrill
returns east. He is coming east now.
Since my return to this country l have
had only a short message from him.
That was in answer to my telegram
asking him to come east, and he re-
piled he could not do so at that time"
DR.. Cook later said:
Il never even knew Barrill kept a
diary. 1 never saw it, consequently |
could not have asked him to alter any
thing whatever The only thing ever
saw him do was to take sketches. Any
statements of his that suggested the
changing of dates and altitude is a
lie.'
"Is there any reason why Barrill
should make the assertion that you did
not reach the summit of Mount McKin-
ley" Dr. Cook was asked.
He was not paid in full for all of
his services, but neither were others.
1t was just an oversight"
do you think that would make him
vindictive0"
81 do not think it should"
Referring to Barrills sworn state
ment, DR.. Cook said:
81 cannot really understand why
Barrill should have made such a
statement as the newspapers repro
duced, if he was acting under normal
conditions. l must say it surprises
me. We were always on the most
friendly terms. Until l know of the
conditions under which this alleged af-
fidavit was made, will make no spe-
cific reply to it. My account of the
trip has been published. For the pres
ent it is the bald statement of one
man against another.
"If an expedition of experienced
mountaineers will follow the route
that 1 took and will go to the top of
Mount Mckinley, they will find there
the records which l deposited on at
tanning the summit of the mountain in
the manner described in my book. TO
the Top of the Continent
"It appears to me that there was
money behind his statement. He was
perhaps annoyed that he had not been
paid the wages, but that was not my
fault and l remedied the matter as
soon as / got back from the pole"
DR.. Cook met with a hearty recep-
tion at Philadelphia. Several thousand
persons cheered him as he stepped out
of the station. A military guard of
honor, composed of the city troop, pre-
sented arms as he entered his carriage
and the troop acted as the explorers
escort throughout the city.

Proper Love for Wife.

when man really loves his wife
he ought to combine all his incest
sentiments toward other women into
one big sentiment for her.
''He should show her the respect he
feels toward his mother, the polite
ness he shows other women and the
responsibility he feels toward his sis
ter.

origin of Word "BibIe."

The word bible is derived from the
Latin name biblia, which was treated
as a singular although it comes from
,She Greek neuter plural, meaning Tit

was derived from byblus, or papyrus,

books were written. The title "Bible"

was two months ago and she has not
been seriously impertinent since 1t
was a case where punishment was I'M
necessary, and an appeal to the child S
mind was sufficient.
This treatment will not work always,
of course, but it is worth trying. The
trouble is that a busy and harrassed
mother can deliver punishment for an
offense much sooner than it takes to
appeal to the child's mind, hence the
prevalence of the former method.
Argument with a child should never
be carried on when the youngster shows
a tendency to answer back, not ne
cessarily impertinently, either. But if,
through words boy or girl cannot be
convinced of the error, then punish
ment of some kind must be administer
ed. Nothing will so quickly cause a
child to lose respect for parent as the
opportunity to argue endlessly and no
parent can afford to have a little one
lose respect.
There are children whom even the
simplest punishment hardens unfortu-
nately, and they are among the difficult
types with which to deal. But as rule,
if this element in the temperament is
recognized and carefully handled they
will take discipline, when it is needed,
if words have failed to show them the
wrong that has been done, Many boy
will be good natured after a whipping
rarely given and be sulky over frequent
raps on the knuckles The former
clears the atmosphere, while the latter
simply keeps it stirred Children
should not be nagged or their disposi-
tons will suffer. Mary E. Hood.

A Few Suggestions.

If any rule could be Systematically
followed as to when child deserves
punishment and when it does not, the
matter of training would be simplitied.
But the fact that no two children are
precisely alike, and that one might de-
serve correction when another would
not precludes the possibility of set reg
ulations and makes it necessary for ey-
ery mother to decide each case for her
self.
There is one great point, however,
that all should observe, and that is not
to punish when reasoning would bring
the same results, for needless correction
blunts a child's sensitiveness. To state
that it brutalizes him is putting it too
positively, but it tends to develop indif-
ference and hardness that one does not
want child to possess.
On general principles one might try
reasoning before punishment. If the
same child commits the same error a
second time, it having been explained
to him carefully why he should not,
then there is little question but that he
deserves punishment But the avC age
child is far more susceptible to reason
than many persons think. For exam
pie, little girl of eight years was being
corrected the other day for bad manners
towards her nurse. She had been inn
prudent, but instead of punishment her
mother told her that this way of speak
ing was underbred and common; that
it made persons dislike her and detract-
ed from her sweetness. That it was not
clothes but manners which made a
lady, and that to be pertinent was to be
common. Also the mother added any
one could have good manners when
not annoyed, but it was in speaking like
a lady when provoked made the virtue.
The child summed il up at once by say
ing: Il see, must act like lady out
side, however l may feel inside" That

FOR SICK CHILDREN.

Mrs. ROSE HAWTHORNE LATHRoP, WHO
Has DONE So MUCH GOOD AMONG
SICK CHILDREN OF New YORK, REC
oMMENDs VINoL.
In my work among the destitute
sick give Vinol in many cases where
it would be impossible to give cod liver
oil in any other form, on account of the
extreme weakness of the patients stom-
ach. l have known Vinol to restore
appetite and infuse new life in many
cases of sick women and children when
everything else failed. Little children
seem to delight in taking Vinol. "
The reason Vinol is SO far superior to
old-fashioned cod liver oil and emulsions
is because it contains all the medicinal,
bodybuilding elements of cod liver oil
actually taken from fresh Gods livers
with the disagreeable oil eliminated and
tonic iron added.
AS a body builder and strength
creator for old people, weak women,
delicate children, after sickness and for
all pulmonary troubles, Vinol is recon-
mended by over 5000 of the leading
druggists of the United States. Your
money will be returned on demand if
Vinol fails to benefit. Niles Drug Co.,
