The whole territory of the drink

a powerful ally Of the saloon and the
brothel, and one of the most formid-
able evils with which civilization and
Christianity have to contend.
The largest portion OF the daily fare
Of the American people is inharmon-
iously prepared or improperly cooked
Consequently, it is indigestible, innu-

deranges the stomach. and a deranged

There IS no more important organ
in human being than the stomach,
and its needs should be treated with

THE UNKNOWN CONTINENT.

The Response TO the appeal made by
Sir Ernest Shackleton in the Daily Mail

the Australian Antarctic expedition, has
been prompt and generous. In three, days
the full cost of DR. Mawson's ship has
been provided by our readers. But there
is abundant room for further help, and
it should be forthcoming without delay
if only to show our sympathy with Aus
tralasian enterprise and our gratitude for
the lavish help which Australia in the
past has rendered to British exporers.

stupendous chain of mountains which

Pole. They will be trayersed and survey

have a powerful steam vessel at his dis
posal. but also an aeroplane This will
be used, not to attempt a flight towards
the South Pole which would be a des-
perately dangerous enterprise. but to as
certain the lie and nature of the land.
DR.. Mawson is convinced that the Ant
arctic Continent will prove rich in min
erals. Coal has already been discovered
there by Sir Ernest Shaekleton's expedi-
ton. Gold is believed to exist. perhaps in
large quantities; and if it can be worked
on the Yukon and in Alaska there is no
reason why 1t should not be won in
similar ATTITUDES in the South. The new
Rand may lie among the mountains and
vast ice plains of Victoria Land Thus
there are commercial possibilities in the
expedition. But this Is not all Strange
ly enough, DIR. Mawson believes that
hereafter the Antarctic Continent will
take for Australia the place of summer
and winter playground which Switzer--

recent years that men have grasped the
health and fascination of winter sports.
These may be obtained in perfection dur
