Polar Bears for Motive Power.

SEATTLE. Wash, October 11.-With
his sudden departure from this city. Ed
Barrille. who was DR.. Frederick A.
Cooks guide when the explorer made the
ascent of Mount Mckinley in 1906. after
three years Of effort, has defeated what
now seems to be another deliberate and
elaborate attempt to discredit the dis
coverer of the north pole.
When the details are forthcoming,
which will be in a day or two, it is said,
they will reveal a highly interesting
story. showing particularly to what
lengths the enemies Of DR.. Cook are
willing to go to take from him the glory
of his achievement. 1t will deal espe-
cially with the Mount Mckinley affair.
Barrille Will Tell!
Barrille practically fed from Seattle
to avoid the Vaccinations of syndi-
cate of men who were bringing great
pressure upon him in their efforts to
bend him to their aims. He has con-
cealed his whereabouts from all except
a few intimate associates, so that he
shall be no longer annoyed, and from
his retreat may be expected at any mo-
ment his complete narrative of the

has always expressed friendship.
Immediately following the announce
ment that DR.. Cook had discovered the
north pole his opponents became indus
trious in their efforts to cast dscredit
upon him. and in this endeavor they bark
ed back to the Mount Mckinley episode
and charged that he had not made the
ascent, as he had declared.
All STAND by Cook.
So far as the ascent of cunt Mckin-
ley is concerned they failed to make

when the fabric OF the accusation fell
away as soon as investigation began. Not

Miller, the photographer of the expedi-
ton. confirmed the account told by DR..
Cook in his book subsequently published,
called, The Top.of the Continent
Despite these failures by the adversa-
ries of the explorer. the situation recent
ly has become acute that seemingly
they have leveled all their batteries upon
Barrille, with the purpose of obtaining
from him an affidavit 10 the effect that
DR.. Cook did not ascend Mount Mckinley.
For many days they have been working
to this end, but Barrile has steadfastly
refused to yield to their persuasions. and
finally he has left the city to avoid fur

TASTY RECIPES.
Tasty Picked Foods.

Select for this purpose pulled figs.
Weigh the fruit and allow three-fourths
of a pound of sugar and CUP of water
for each pound OF fruit. Bring sugar
and water TO a good boil. then drop the
figs in and simmer gently until straw
can penetrate them. Pack in cans in lay
ers with a few cloves. bits of stick Gin
namon and a little mace between them,
and cover with the sirup but do not seal
the jars. For three successive mornings
pour off the sirup without disturbing
the figs. reheat TO the boiling point ana
return TO the jar. The third morning
measure the strip. and TO every three
cupfuls allow one cupful good vinegar.
Scald well. pour over the figs and seal.

Customary Glad Hand
Extended to Explorer

MILWAUKEE. Wis, October 1.-THE
two Eskimos who accompanied me to the
north pole-Etukishook and AhweIah-
will not arrive in this country until next
year." said DR.. Frederick A. Cook yester-
day inanswer to a question of when his
two companions to the pole might be ex-
pected. 1T Is too late in the season now
to get them there, as by this time it is
dark up there They will be brough,
here next year
When DR.. Cook arrived. in spite of the
early hour. there was a crowd at the
Union station to welcome the explorer
and as he walked through the gates three
cheers were given him. There was an in
formal reception at the Pfster Hotel
Lectures in Auditorium.
DR. Cook delivered a lecture tonight
before a large audience in the Audit o.
rum. At the close of his uecture he left
for Detroit
What were Etukishook and Ahwelah
offered if you reached the pole?" the ex-
plorer was asked after the lecture.
"A knife and a gun" replied DR.. Cook
with his quiet smile. But they got much
more than that. They had a number of
knives and several guns, a modern Win
chester and muzzle- loading rifles which
use powder and ball.
DO you think they knew the danger?''
NO. | think not. 1t was something to
which they were accustomed
did you expect to come back when
you started?'
'Oh. yes; otherwise 1 should not have
gone was the reply.
MIR. Bradley stated that he looked
upon your return as 100 to l shot ;"
IF l had looked on it that way l should
not have gone, replied DIR. Cook mo

When asked about the gumdrop story
Dr. Cook came as near silent laugh as
he permits himself to indulge in.
Sweets, Not Gumdrops.
Sweets would be a better word" he
said. 1.-The Eskimos are fond of sweets.
and by giving them these you can get a
great deal of work done. 1t was no use
to give them money, as there is nothing
there that it will buy
These Eskimos live SO far north that
they have not come in contact with white
men to any degree. The nearest white
men have been at Cape York but now
the Danish government has established
a mission station half way between Cape
York and Etah, about North Cape bay.

Van Camps is Pure Milk

Van Camps is simply rich Holstein milk,
with two-thirds the water evaporated.
There is no sugar in it, no starch, no pre-
notwithstanding whatever but milk.
We have evaporating plants in six states,
all located close to our diaries.
The fresh milk from the cows is poured
into receptacles. Then the air is pumped out,
leaving the milk in vacuum.
Because of that vacuum, very moderate
heat sets the milk boiling, and evaporates the
water in steam.
Thus we evaporate two-thirds of the water
to reduce the bulk. 1t is that economy in
shipping which makes Van Camps cost even
less than raw milk
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1909-10-11

And Van Camps gives you for cooking
the whole rich miIk-the finest milk in Amer
lea.
Please note what this means
When you use raw milk for cooking you
don't get the whole milk, because milkman's
milk separates. The butter fat rises and the
solids fall
In Van Camps you get all the butter fat.
all the solids that exist in the richest milk
Thus it gives to milk dishes a richness and
flavor which you never can get from raw
milk.
You lose all this in condensed milk.

be taken on board Capt Amundsen's
ship.
Think He'll Get There.
That Capt Roald Amundsen will reach
the north pole with his team of polar
bears Is the general belief of his many
friends in this country. who have watched
the daring explorer since he first found
the true magnetic pole. When a few
years ago he forced the northwest pass
age in the little schooner the Norwegian
explorer became the talk of the civilized
world. President Roosevelt received him
at the White House and introduced him
to his family.
..Amundsen has had much experience III
the arctic regions, and for years has
studied the great problem of transporta-
ton. That he should have hit upon
to his friends True. UP to this time no
arctic explorer has ever made use OF
the polar bear. except for eating pur-
poses. 1t was always believed that the
creatures were too wild and could never
be trained to go in harness.
Problem Is Solved.
But If this obstacle has been overcome
at last it Is the general belief that the
one great problem-that Of transportation
as well as of food supples-has been
solved as far as arctic travelling is con-
cerned.
Peary, Cook and all the other polar ex-
piorers have used doss to drag their
sledges. When provisions ran low the
dogs had to be killed and the meat fed to
the surviving dogs. Very seldom, only
wnen actually compelled. have the ex-
plorers lived on arctic dog meat With
the polar bears 1t is different Should pro-
visions run low a bear could be killed and
the larder of the expedition be greatly re-
plenished.
All in all. Capt. Amundsen's scheme is
believed to be an excellent one.

Condensed Milk i. Nearly
Half Sugar

"A can of condensed milk is about half milk
and half sugar
The sugar is added-from 40 to 50 per cent
both to cheaper and preserve it.
In the old days, before the sterilization of
milk was perfected, sugar was added to keep
the milk sweet.
And many people still cling to this sweet
ened milk because they don't know how evap-
GRATED milk has displaced it.

1t is cheaper than raw milk, because you

If you prove these facts, you who use con-
densed milk will gladly change to Van Camps.

28 Per Cent Solids


This evaporated milk is % per cent solids
8per cent butter fat.
Such is the milk that we put into the cans,
and the milk that you get in Van Camps
Then the milk is sterilized after the can
is sealed. That's the only thing we do to
preserve it.
When you open the can, and replace the
water. you have whole rich milk without any
subtraction or any addition. save slight al
mond favor due to sterilization.
Paving a Double Price
for Sugar
Condensed milk may be also evaporated
But each can contains about as much sugar
as milk.
Let US figure out what this means
The large can of Van Camps contains six
teen ounces of evaporated milk. That means
a full pint-a full pound.
If you buy Van Camps by the case, and
replace the water which we take out, you get
rich milk at about six cents per quart.
The 10-cent cans of condensed milk contain
only IL ounces-four ounces less than Van
Camps. And about half the condensed milk
is sugar, for which you are paying more than
twice what sugar is worth.

NAVAJO BLANKETS
 BETTER THAN CARPETS
The Reasons Why Will Be Given at
 Balke's Big Curio Store.

The public having been apprised yesterday of the large stock of Maya jo blankets on exhibition at Balke's Big Curio Store. a large number of people called yesterday 10 admire the handiwork of the Indians. The ad miratiOn of many took the more substantial form of purchases. It was agreed by judges of blankets that they had never seen such a large collection of good ones.
 Now that people are returning from their vacations and putting their houses in order, and now that win ter residents are coming in and fur nishing houses. they would do well to call at the Big Curio Store and learn that it is better to cover floors with Navajo blankets or rugs than with carpets They are more beau tiful, they will last langer and always be beautiful, and then they will cost less than a good grade of carpet.
 Those who have carpets slightly worn in places will find that a rug thrown over the defect will not only conceal it. but will add to the gen. eral appearance of the surroundi l's-
 But if this is to be done, it sh 'iid be done quickly. in order that tho choice of the blankets may b. Sc cured and because the pri e of blankets will be higher after the sea . son fairly sets in.
