Day by day has DR.. Anderson de-
tailed his journey. OF the entire first
year spent in the north his report says
nothing, the letter he had sent out
earlier on one of the two occasions
word was received from the adven-
turers being sufficient in his opinion
to cover that period OF the second
year, when the provisions taken north
by the party had either been eaten
or stolen by the bears and wolverines,
he says but little more.
At the end of their trip, when death
and starvation stared them in the face,
they stumbled across the carcass Of
a bowhead whale. DR.. Anderson, writ
ing of the find, said, THE carcass was
evidently two or three years old, but
the meat was fairly well preserved"
Although it was still early in the aft
ernoon the party camped Immediately
and there dogs and men Toasted side
by side. The meat" wrote DR.. An
derson, was fairly palatable, slightly
acrid but not offensive and all in all
was very filing"
At the conclusion of their letters
both Mr.. Stefansson and DR.. Ander-
son express themselves as being de-
sirous of returning again to the coun-
try in which they spent two such ter
rible years to complete the work they
started.
The first specimens gathered by Mr.
Stefensson and DR.. Anderson have ar
rived at the Museum of Natural His
tory. The men will reach New York
in the near future.

CANDYMAN'S ANGER PUT ON
He Orders Glucose Salesman Out of
Store When Customers Are
Present.

The recent flood of pure food matter
in the papers calls to mind couple
of stories told of and by a travelling
salesman who in 1876 represented the
first big glucose factory established in
Buffalo. He sold the stuff to the can
dy makers by the carload. One day
friend met him in a Boston hotel and
he was in state of great indignation.
1t seems that he had been thrown out
by one of the big candy makers. He
was boiling with rage because the
dealer who had so treated him had
been using glucose for a year or more
and in large quantities and he could
not understand the change in his atti-
tude.
While the two were talking the
candy maker came into the hotel,
walked up to them. smiled at the g1u-
cose salesman and said: when /
threw you out this morning my store
was full of customers and I wasn't TAX
ing any chances on some one of them
not knowing you and your business
/ wouldn't have it known that / am u.s.

that's in it. Never come to my store
again. Let me know that you are here
and I'll call on you Send me ten bar

The other yarn was about New
York concern A grocery house had
purchased ten barrels of glucose AS
an experiment they fitted up a top
floor as a honey factory First they
had the floor concerted, then they
poured In the glucose and on the top
of it foated a number of very thin
boards pierced with holes like a col
ander Several hundred bees were
then turned loose in the room They
alighted on the boards and their
weight was sufficient to bring up the
glucose through the holes in the
boards. Hives had been prepared
around the room and when the bees
were surfeited they went into the
hives and stored the honey 1t was
pure honey" and. according to the
salesman, was sold as such

A hunter in the north, stalking deer,
saw a herd in a lake and while get
ting range saw a large fish jump re-
peatedly at the tail of a buck. After
bringing down the deer he fixed the
tail on q hook; it proved the best bait
he ever had used. The buck tail fly.
a brown and white tuft of hair. is
good bait, though there is no insect
listed that it could have been copied
from.
But the buck tail and ibis fly are
attractive morsels to- human eyes,
compared with the monstrosities that
the fish have been invited to bite at
in seasons past Any self-respectfng
fish getting in early from little craw-
dad supper of the night before might
not be blamed for mistaking an ibis
or a buck tail for something he had
seen in pairs, or tours. at some other
time. But the fish that strikes at a
"coaxer," or yellow kid" two
freak bats, probably has had domes-
tic troubles.
The Paris of fish bait fashions is
in the east, and 1t is a notable fact
that none of the frivolous things have
come from prohibition territory The
inventor of fish lures has a tempera-
tries. Take the "coaxer." 1t re-
sembles miniature rooster in pro-
file; a hunk of white wood is set off
by a pert tail of red feathers and two
cute little suggestions of wings of red
felt Natural histories show no
freaks that could have been the in
epiration for this. And the coaxer is
some persuader. anglers will tell you.
From the impressionistic school
comes the "roamer;" the motif of this
is purely allegorical- In your worst
nightmares you may have seen the
roamer family in various coiors- The
roamer also is cigar-shaped: it has a
round head with protruding eyes and
a fan tail that is beauty Six wrig-
Civ red legs-guaranteed to wriggle-
add to the grotesqgeness and hide the
| hooks. The prevailing color is mot
tied green with white underneath
| Somehow the roamer makes a strong
appeal to the fish
And In all this catering to the
yhfms of the haunters of deep pools,
the designers have not forgotten the
tender phase that has part In the
fsh's existence-the season of senti-
ment For this there is the moonlight

Avoid Disputatjon.

The disputatious person never makes.
a good friend. In friendship, men
look for peace and concord and some
measure of content There are
enough battles to fight outside, enough
Earring and jostling in the street,
enough disputing in the market place.
enough diScoTd in the workaday
world, without having to look for con-
tention in the realm of the inner life

an end of strife. Friendship is the

BAIT IS A HUMBUG
Queer Freaks in Lures That
Tempt Finny Tribe.
Piseatorial Brood Eagerly Jump for
HobgobIin Monstrosities That
Would be Food only for
Billy Goats.

ST. Paul, Minn.-Why does a fish
bite Of course there is the anglers
dexterity, adroitness, luck, experience,
personal magnetism and all that, and
everyone can tell why a fish doesn't
bite; there are as many jinx as there
are fishermen. But why does a fish
bite? What is the psychology of bait?
Doubtless angling originally con-
sisted in offering something to tempt
the appetite of the piscatorial brood
But that idea seems almost to have
dropped out of the world-old business
of fishing For of all the hundreds of
lures used by casters for fish few
would satisfy hunger. If the game
sought were billy goats or ostriches,
the combinations of rubber. tin. glass.
paint and feathers might be tempting.
But why any sane fish will jump for
red and green hobgoblin that resem-
bles nothing it ever has seen before.
is a mystery to fishermen. And why
it will grab it today and pass it by
with cold disdain tomorrow is as deep
a mystery.
They're inconsistent, too, and you've
got to give them something new all
the time Now. the ibis fly is the hob
bic skirt of angling. Last year it was

something else. You've got to keep
up on the fashions in flies if you want
to catch fish.
The ibis fly resembles nothing that
the fish feed on. A vermillion feather
hides a hook that may or may not
have attached a tab" of salt pork.
Yet the fishermen Who have caught
the big bass this year say there is
nothing so good as the ibis fly. The
fish take it and the angler has no re-
greet in being a nature faker.
There is a story of the buck tails
origin that, being fish story, cannot
be questioned as to it's authenticity.

If all the little laughing folk along

A tender word, a gentle hand to heal

You're riding on a little broom

Oh, little one, get up.
And we will ride the wing ed horse
And drink the fairy cup!
In Tearytown the shadows dwell and
all their faces seem
AS long as if they all had been tor
mented in dream;
In Smileyvif1e the little cheeks you
see on every hand
Are bright with glory as the blooms
that light the lovely land.
So, up and up, my little one,
From Tearytown let's go
To Smileyville, where all the world
Is lit with sunny glow!
The streets in Teary town are deep with
floods Of salty rain,
Because the little tears run down all
day with might and main;
In Smileyville the little cheeks you
see on garden gate
Sweet people with little bunch of
lilacs for you wait.

Curtains.

All curtains are made to hang only
to the sill. A three or four inch hem
is put at the top and bottom. At the
top an extra line of stitching is put
in to form casing for the rod or
cord. Ii one has old curtains they
do not wish to cut, the tops can be
folded so that the top hem is several
thickness. One of the biggest firms
in the city of Seattle advocates that
way of doing. Another way is to hang
the curtains over the pole, draw the
top down until the bottom is even
with the sill, then haste several deep
tucks in the drawn over part. 1t
makes a sort of lambrequin.
For the living room and dining
room there are beautiful nets and
fancy scrims. For bed rooms moth
Ing can be daintier than dotted white,
