Symmes' Hole anc Garden of Eden

The discovery of the north pole will
set at rest several odd and curious
theories. Perhaps the two most wide
ly known polar pipc-dreams are SYM
mes hole and the garden of Eden
theory. Captain Symmes was an off
Ger in the war of 1872 and IA man of
parts. His title to fame, however. is
IN his famous hole. He claimed and
attempted to prove that the earth is
hollow. open at the poles and inhabit-
ed on the inside. He wrote books
and delivered lectures in support of
his theory and died firm in the faith.
Yet a few months after his death an
expedition returned from 81 degrees
south, not having found any hole,
and thus dlsproving the Symmes
statement that the conccntric rings
leading into the earth begin at that
latitude. Prior to that time, how
ever Captain Symmes had gained
Worldwide notOriety and some CON
verts. H. is probable that one of
Foe tales and Bulwcr Lytton s
Coming Race" We're both inspired
by him. although the idea was older
than Symmes. having been held by
the astronomer HALEY, for whom
Halleys comet was named: by Hol-
berg, a Norwegian scientist. and
others. Captain Symmes was the
hrSt, however, TO work the theory
out IN detail and to present it seri
OuSly to the world.
The Garden of Eden theory has
never been So detinatcly formulated.
1t is based on the fact that the re-
mains OF Immense animals and luxu-
rant vegetation have been found in
the arctic regions. Some scientists
hoid that N the cooling of the earth
HE began at the poles While Peary
and Cook have not proved that the
Garden of Eden never could have
existed at the north pole, they have
at least found present climatic CON
dltions on the top of the world not
exactly Edenic.

that it is almost impossible to secure

Yes, surely, amber soap" does have an

this is one of list Of twenty-four pos
sible names for a toilet soap pre-
empted by registration as protec-
tionary measure years ago by one OF
the leading American soap makers.
They have covered over a hundred
names In the past quarter of century,
willingly paying the registration
charges of $25 for every title. OF
course they do not intend to use them.
They register them to fight of compe-
tition, believing (and here is the i'm
portant point that no clever business
man would embark in the enterprise
of manufacturing new soap when
from the start he was prevented from
employing the powerful weapon Of
Imagination in giving 1t suitable

directed by some Of the ablest heads in
the business world, believes that it
can discourage competition by simply

When life seems more than usually
insipid-and such moments do come to
even the most hopeful Of us-there Is
a sudden pleasant sympathy In the
yawn of the terrier on the rug before
the fire. "Ah, you, too, find things a
little boring, old fellowp we say to
ourselves. A dog yawns nObly, max
ing no attempt at Disgusting it with
politely uplifted paw. All animals
seem to enjoy yawn except man.
We once saw the late lamented hip
popotamus at the zoo lift himself slow
ly from his murky pond and yawn. It
was a great spectacle, tremendous, Ho-
meric. The concentrated boredom OF
the whole creation seemed expressed
in that gigantic gasp. For few fas-
cinated moments pond, shed, ratings,
people, all seemed merged in one CO.
lossal mouth. 1t was wonderful. Oh,
we thought as we came away, to be
able to yawn like that when life be-
comes too sillyl-Pall Mall Gazette.

al Out Of Doors,

Trudeau's classic experiment points
us In the right direction. After inoc-
ulating a number of rabbits with tu-
berculosis he confined a number OF
them indoors and turned the others
outdoors. The latter all recovered,
while the former all died. This exper-
tment shows that a rabbit living upon
It's natural food and under a natural
environment is proof against tubercu-
losis. There is abundant reason to be-
lieve this equally true Of man. In
other words. tuberculosis is not a nee
essary evil Of human life, but is a nat
ural consequence of erroneous habits
and departure from natural conditions.
Man is naturally an outdoor animal.

row. A man must live in the fresh air

Nothing could exceed the enmity Mr.,
Ferris felt for Mr.. Davis unless it was
the hatred Mr.. Davis harbored toward
Mr.. Ferris.

tenanted house across the street by Be-
rena Fairlie and her mother these two
men had been close and constant
friends. Each night Mr.. Ferris went

Wis went to the house of Mr.. Ferris to
smoke and conversationally regulate
the affairs of the nation.
Not even the fact that each OF these
boosted a particularly well kept lawn
in front of his residence was sufficient
to cause jealousy between them. So
the late bellicose condition was the
more deplorable by reason of their for
mer friendship.
Mr.. Ferris was straight, stately
and ascetic looking bachelor Of forty
eight His dark brown hair was
streaked with gray. His nose was
aquiline. His eyes were like blue steel.
A sparse mnstache dropped over thin
and melancholy lips. He was known
to have a competence, although he 0c-
cupied himself with the conduct Of a
real estate Office. He lived alone save
for the presence of a deaf old aunt and
still more deaf old servant.
The house was furnished with refer
ence to what was then considered the
artistic standard Mr.. Ferris himself
was accredited with a pretty tasts In
poetry and was given to quoting ex-

Mr.. Davis was jolly widower Of
fifty winters that had been, however,
like those of Adam, frosty, but kind

rosy, amiable, fair haired and bland.
His children were married and gone.
He bowed to the sway Of a housekeep-

was not averse to frequently proclaim

aesthetic than those of his neighbor,
were decidedly more conducive to per

In proof of his possession Of the

was much distress in Aragon:
A laborer out of work came on the
highroad determined to rob the first
person he met. This was man with
a wagon. The laborer babe him halt
