LIZ at the Pole.

Life at the pole is a perpetual battle
with nature. IN which man is often
worsted HE was frozen TO death is
the end of many biographies. While a
man is In health they speak of him as
stronger than death. as If death were
a watchful enemy always waiting for
his chance But life Is on large scale
up there. Instead Of the petty alterna-
tons of night and day they have the
great seasonal succession. and. wheth-
er they are waiting for the long light
of summer or the long dark of winter.
they enjoy keen delight In the pros
pect of a change such as we can never
know In the tanner arrangements OF
our climate. The long dark does not
keep them wholly inactive. We read of
expeditions after bear and hunting on
the ice by torchlight. but in the main
their winter is given up to story tell
ing. conversation and contemplation.
