jeopardize our return. We could not,
therefore, do otherwise than to force
ourselves against the wind and drift
with all possible speed, closing the eye
to unavoidable suffering.
With no alternative, we tried to per-
suade ourselves that conditions might
be worse.
The eighty-seventh was crossed. the
eighty-siyth was neared, but there
came time when both mind and body
wearied Of the whole problem of forced
resolution
The hard work Of lgloo building was
now thing Of the past--only one had
been built since leaving the pole. and
IN It precious day was lost--while
the atmospheric fury changed the face
Of the endless expapse of desolation.
The little silk tent now housed us sufli-
GENTLY from the icy airs. There were
still 60 degrees Of frost, but with hard
ened skins and insensibe nerve fila
ments the torture was not so Eeenly
felt
The steady diet OF pemmican and tea
ana biscuits was now entirely salts
factory. We longed for enough to
give real filling sense, but the ration
was slightly reduced rather than in
creased The change in life from win
Ter to summer, which should take
place at about this time Of the year,
was In our case marked only by a
ehange In shelter, from the snow
mouse to the tent. and our bel was
moved from the soft snow shelf of the
gIoo to the hard. wind swept crust.

FOR THE CHILDREN
The Disappearing Coin.

Take a quarter Of a dollar between
the thumb and foreGnger of the right
hand; then 10y a rapid twist Of the I'm
gers twirl the coin by the same mo.
ton you would use to spin a teerotum,
at the same time rapidly closing your
hand, and the coin will disappear up
your coat sleeve. You can now open
your hand and, much TO the astonish-
ment Of your audience, the coin viii
not be there
This capital trick may be varied in
a hundred ways. One good way is to
take three dimes or quarters and, con-
cealng one IN the palm Of your left
hand. place the other two, one each
between the thumb and foroHngcr Of
each hand; then give the coin In the
right hand the twirl ms already de-
scrlbed. and, closing both hands quick
~, the coin IN the right hand will dis
appear up your sleeve. and the left
hand ON being Enclosed will be found
to contain two quarters, while that
which was in the right will have dis
appeared. Thus you will make the
surprised spectators believe thar you
coniured the coin from the right hand
into the left.
