1t is astonishing TO ono who has not

experience that the appetite Is under

not of the Will The impulse to cele.
brate any good news by a dinner Is
founded upon the fact that when one Is
pleased and elated, hunger ia excited.
In early times this hunger was gratified
on the moment, Just as the accompany

modern man usually dcfcrs his eating
to suitable occasion. The loss of
appetite caused by bad news or mis-
fortune of any kind is too well known
TO need more than mention. Worry of
physical fatigue Will ofton act in the

stroy the appetite will arrest or greatly

TO THE SOUTH POLE.

According to the reports there Will
| be two attacks upon the South Polo
in the near future. Lieutenant Shack
Teton will resume his explorations In
those regions. and Commander Peary
will direct an American expedition.
It is to be hoped that the Cook-Peary
controversy Will not be enacted again,
The two expeditions might be con-
Quoted, not as rivals but as friends
cooperating for whatever general
benefit mankind may derive from an
extended knowledge OF the Antarctic
regions,
Less is known about the extreme
South than the North, but 1t is known
that the Antarctic climate is terribly
severe at all times, and that the South
Pole Is more inaccessible than the
North Pole Hundreds of miles from
the Pole the traveller meets the fright
full ice barrier which borders the en-
tire Antarctic continent. Between
the icebergs and the frozen land there
Is a lane of open water, but 1t never
leads into inland sounds. The cx-
plorer must abandon his vessels at the
beginning of his task. and resort to
toiIsomo travel over the snow. The
feeble power of the sun is insufficient
to produce a drop of water. Even In
summer the snow drifts in the wind in
fine, piercing needles. The southern
hemisphere has its winter when the
earth is farthest from the sun. This
makes It more inclemcnt. And the
entire Antarctic continent is swept by
winds cooled by tho water of the sur
rounding ocean. The intensity of the
cold is one of the obstacles to pro-
gross in those latltudes.
Several voyages have been made to
the Antarctic regions. In 1895 Borch-
grevink reached Possession island,
where James Ross landed In 1S41. and
then proceeded to Cape Andre. on the
southern continent, He found n suit
able spot for landing and thought that
the surrounding country would form
good base for inland explorations.
Later, Shackleton made a remarkable
inland journey and returned with a
knowledge of the prevailing conditions
and an experience that should enable
him to go still further south. when

A STRANGE PRESCRIPTION.

SpiritualIsts In New York are said
to be praylnr to spirits for the recovery
of a 15-year-old daughter of DR.. Hy-
slop. who Is suffering from typhoid
fever. Praying to spirits is something
unusual in our day and age We be-
lieve some of the ancient pagans used
to invoke the aid OF demons. or spirits
Saul too. when he thought himself
abandoned by Deity, turned to the
witch in Endor and. asked her to raise
up Samuel. But II Is certainly strange
to read of men and women at this time
to turn to spirits for help against a
disease. and that on the advice of a
physician OF reputation. II the report
is correct. DR.. Titus Bull has written
the following letter TO a SpirItuaIIst
church:

cnn do to save the life of DR. Hyslon's
daughter, and have givcn up. The only
thing that can possibly save her life

! write for your silent prayers to ask
the spirits TO do this"
That God has power to heal the sick
and even raise the dead. cannot be
doubted. But the Doctor should know
that He does not operate through
spirits. but through the Holy Spirit
given TO those who receive that gift
through faith and obedience. To seek
the aid of spirits is to go outside the

obtain by unlawful means that which Is

Though his day was generation
and more ago, tho name and deeds OF
Philo Gridley of the supreme court are
still traditional In the north central
portion of New York state. For many
years he was one of the ablest justices
of the state. so able, in fact. that law
yers were fond of bringing their cases
before him.
"In all my judicial experience" once
said the late Judge Alpheus Mason, a
member of New York states highest
court 'I am certain that have never
mot with any man better qualified to
typify Impartial justice than Justice
Gridley. Ho knew the law, He had
almost intuitive knowledge of whether
or not a witness was telling the truth
And he had a faculty OF applying COM
mon sense to any Interpretation of tho
law. so that his decisions were rarely
reversed by the highest court.
But Justice Gridley had one &C.
centricity-they say that all mon of
brilliant intellect have some weakness
or prejudice; l presume they have. At
any rate. Judge Gridleys weakness
was that he could not bear the sight
of n man who Wore n red necktie, 1t
had almost the effect upon him which
n red rag is said to have upon n bull.
He never attempted to conquer tho
prejudice, but lot it have full sway
with him.
We'll there came a day when JUS
tice Gridley, sitting In Lowville. tho
capital Of Lewis county. had brought
before him for trial a case celebrated
In western New York, very important
litigation involving a considerable
amount of money and a careful inter
probation OF the law. 1t was one OF
those cases of which lawyers say that
the chances are about equal for either
side.
But great as was the interest taken
in the trial. II seemed to pale some
what when It's followers noticed that
the justice clearly was not possessed
of his usual unruffled and judicial
composurc. On the other hand. each

I succeeding day of the trial seemed to
add to his strange irritation, a circum-
