the time when we ought to take
thought of the other man.
And one way we can serve our fell
low man in these days preceding
Christmas is not to take undue advan-
tage of him in the matter of time.
When it comes to the hurry days

illustrated by the pick from the 1900
photographs taken on his expedition.
Hamptons has the exclusive right to
the use of all OF these photographs.
He had an expert photographer with
him and his work was carefully super
vised, any defective photographs that
were made being speedily detected
and destroyed and perfect ones made
to replace them. This Photographic
history OF Peary's trip to the pole IS
really a remarkable achievement, as
will be shown by the reproduction in
the magazine.
The pictures will tell in a more
striking manner than anything that
could possibly be written the awful
hardships and seemingly insurmounta-
BILE difficulties encountered on that his
tory making trip. Coupled with the
story of adventure told in Peary's de-
lightful and forceful style, this will
make really wonderful magazine fea-
ture. The December Hampton's has
a very Illuminating article on "Peary-
the Man and His Work." and the north
pole expedition articles by Commander
Peary himself will begin in the Janu-
airy number and continue for eight
months or more.

FIELD OF LITERATURE

Peary's Story in Hampton's.-
Hampton's Magazine has closed a con-
tract with Commander Robert z. Peary
for the exclusive periodical rights TO
his own story of the discovery of the
north pole. The commander was I'M
willing to make any business arrange
ments of any kind until his claims of
discovery had been passed upon by the
National Geographic society, the high
est authority in America. He submit
ted all of his proofs to this organiZa-
ton and on Nov. they were formally
accepted and Peary was voted a gold
medal This left him free to choose
from the many offers that had been
made him by the magazine publishers
and book publishers.
The competition between magazine
editors to obtain the exclusive rights
to Commander Peary's story of the dis
covery Of the north pole has been the
keenest in the history of periodical
publication. II is the first feature that
has ever been bid for by every maya
zine of the first class in the world.
Realizing the demand there would he
for it, the offers from the start were
higher than had ever before been made
| for any magazine feature.
Hampton's bid higher than any other
magazine because its editor is con-
WINGED that this is the greatest fact
story that has ever been possible to
offer to the public 1t is really the last
Of the great earth-stories. 1t is not
only history, hot from the forge Of
life; it is character-building material
because Peary's achievement was
purely a triumph of spirit over mat
ter, a remarkable demonstration OF the
power of will.
Commander Peary has already be-
gun the writing of his story for
Hampton's Magazine. All of the facts
that will set at rest the Peary-C Cook
controversy will first become known
through this series of articles, and
will afterward be put into permanent
book form by Frederick A. Stokes
company, the New York publishers,
who have secured the exclusive rights
for publishing Commander Peary's
book. The price paid by Frederick 4.
Stokes company is also the highest
price that any publisher has ever pail

tons Magazine win be unusually fully
