The new cabinet of the United States
Is composed of as many capable of per

new members have served terms i'm pre-

been first assistants or have had con-

\ noticeable fact about the present
cabinet is that two of its members are
not Republicans. However, this is not

But for more convenient division OF
the yearly periods it is best to retain
the usual cycle of four seasons. Eski-
mos call the winter ookiah, which also
means year, and the summer onsab.
Days are Sleeps" The months are
moons, and the periods are named IN
accord with the movements Of various
creatures Of the chase.
In early September ar Annootok the
SIM dips considerably under the north
ern horizon. There is no night At
sunset and ut sunrise storm clouds
hide the bursts of color which are The
glory of twilight, and the electric after
glow is generally lost in the dull gray
which bespeaks the torment Of the
storms of the setting sun.
The gloom Of the coming winter
night now thickens. The splendor Of
the summer day has gone. A day Of
six months and night OF six months
are often ascribed to the polar regions
as a whole, but this Is only trne Of a
very small area about the pole.
AS we come south the sun slips I'M
der the horizon for an ever increasing
part Of each twenty-four hours. Pre-
ceding and following the night as we
come from the pole there is a period
of day and night which lengthens With
the descent Of Latitude.
It is this period which enables Us to
retain the names Of the usual seasons

This precaution against ultimate mis-

Incoslng a space 10 by 1G feet, the

were held together by strips OF wood
or the joints sealed with pasted paper
with the addition of few long boards.
A really good roof was made by
using the covers of the boxes as shin

fined the heat and permitted at the
same time healthful circulation Of air.

necessary to make provision for house

season begins when the sun first dlns

moments
The Arctic Night.
These moments increase rapidly. yet
one hardly appreciates that the sun Is
departing until day and night are Of
equal length, for the night remains
light, though not cheerful. Then the
day rapidly shortens and darkens, and
the sun sinks until at least there is
but a mere glimmer of the glory Of
day.
Winter is limited to the long night,
and spring applies to the days Of the
rising sun, period corresponding to
the autumn days of the setting sun.
At Annootok the midnight sun is first
seen over the sea horizon on April %.
1t dips in the sea on Aug. 10. 1t thus
encircles the horizon, giving summer

Advice Concerning

Southern California
People "Who Know Do Not
Drink the Hard Alkaline Nat
ural Water. They Drink Pu-
ritas, the Only Reliable Dis
titled Water Obtainable Here
abouts.

There is no need Of complaining of
the unpleasant "soapy' taste of the
natural water in this country. You
don't need to drink it any more than
do the thousands Of other residents
who have solved the problem in Puritas
Distilled Water.
Puritas meets every requirement in a
perfect drinking water. 1t is absolutely
pure, being scientifically distilled. 1t
is not f1at-the usual fault found with
distilled water-because it is aerated
with pure ozone. 1t has all the zest
and sparkle Of the best water you ever
drank.
The women "who know likewise
never use anything else but Puritas for
bathing the face and neck and arms.
They wash their hair in Puritas. The
natural water is very harsh to hair
and skin.
Puritas service is prompt and correct.
You can have Puritas delivered at your
hotel room or at your apartment or
residence. A litter goes with the demi-
John to insure easy handling.
Puritas is ineXpensive-5 gallons cost
but 40 cents. Just telephone us, Home
