antarctic winter. But after three years
dedicated to the task of reviving his prac
tice, a brighter star commenced TO peep
OVER the horizon bar.
When, as a barefooted country lad, at
Callicoon, Frederick Cook had watched
the calm Della ware roll toward the sea,
little did he dream that far down upon
the neither bank Of that calm stream
dwelt tiny tot of girl who would one
day be the guiding light of his life. The
abode of this child was Camden, 300 miles
below, and her name was Marie Fldell.
Hers too. was a surname charged with
magic. Fidell is AngliciZed from the
French "fidele,' meaning faithful.
Marie Fidell, like Frederick Cook. came
of a stock proud but poor, and like him
she was ambitious. She studied stenos-
raphy, grew proficient. and became the
private secretary of a Camden lawyer.
Adjoining the lawyers office was that of
a surgeon, DR.. Willus Hunt. He often
met the pretty amenuensis as she went

introduction, wooed and won her. but
their welded happiness was cut short by
fate. In a year and a half he died, leaV-

young widow then moved to Brooklyn,
where she was mourning her husband at
the same time that DR.. Cook was grleVlns
for his lost fiancee. When little RUIN
was about two she fell ill in the night
and a physician had to be called. Dr.
Cook was the nearest at hand, Whlie
he was attending the little one he fell III
love with the mother, and after two years
Of her mourning had ended she consented
to marry him.

lene, June 10, 1855, when the sun was
warming to new golden summer and
a new era of peace was dawning to calm
a warlike land. This town lies upon the
banks of the Delaware, across whose rip
pies can be seen the green hills of Penn
sylvania. Forty miles to the southwest lie
the black coal fields of Scranton, sixty

Doctors Koch. one Of whom, after as
similation with the new American race
had been complete, had anglicized his
name and called it Cook.
If there be magic in names, it may have
been given with this one, bringing with it
the prowess with which the celebrated
English navigator of that surname who,
century and half ago. explored eastern
Australia and New Zealand, discovered
New Caledonia, sought the southern con-
tinent, and, in an intrepid battle with
icy seas, searched for an arctic passage
from the Pacific around the north of
our continent. But Dame Fortune was
more generous with the new Explorer
Cook than with the old. for the latter
was murdered by the Sandwich Island

them for thieving.

son the fathers middle name, Albert.
Before this she placed another name OF
royal Teutons, Frederick-that of the then
crown Prince .of Prussia, later Emperor
of Germany.
The lad began as farm boy, as goes
the story OF nearly all of our leaders Of
men-communing with nature between
chores, absorbing into his soul the stanch-
