PEARY MEETS A
BOGUS "DR. COOK"

From the Washington Herald
The wintry blasts of the icy Potomac
contain no hidden dangers for Commander
Robert e. Peary. Lest there be any doubt
in the minds OF hopelessly biased persons
on this subject, the following facts are
presented for consideration:
Ten days ago the discoverer Of the
North Pole, now a naval engineer at
tached to the department of Justice" re-
ceived orders to prepare for the 90-miie
riding test that is prescribed for naval
officers. Meditavely the commander
stroked his tawny mustache and frowned
a polar frown as he said: ~
1T haven't been astride horse for
II years, and have almost forgotten how
to mount saddle. But I'm going to
make that 90-mile ride If I die in the
attempt" Ssf
1t was typical of Commander Peary to
make determination of this sort-and to
carry 1t out. Wednesday morning he
started out on the course, a. three-and-
one-half-loop around the speedway. He
knew he had to complete the ride in three
days and was tribe worried by the
thought.
But at 10 o'clock Thursday morning,
after II hours of hard riding in all,
Commander Peary crossed the finish line
with Just a suspicion Of a smile on his
lips. He had demonstrated he knew a
few '1andlubber'' tricks as well as those
of a plain seaman. He had used II
horses in his relays, andnever once al
lowed them to slacken down In their 10
mile-an hour gait, and had emerged from
the test with ITO miles to his credit.
Incidentally, tho test was climaxed
with the spice of excitement. After COM
pleting the ride, the North Pole discover
made a little reconnaissance to a place of
refreshment, where he might find little
spiritual" nournishment. The little
journey was successful. Then Com
mander Peary found that he had brought
no money with him. His pockets wero
empty.
"I'm afraid can't pay you for that
drink just now, my man." he said to the
man behind. n haven't any money. But
I'm Commander Peary."
"The--you are" replied the man In
the apron. We'll. I'm DR.. Cook, and I
have proofs. specifications and documents
to show you bought drink and didn't
pay for 1t. l should advise you to come
across with some cash, Mr.. Commander
Peary." sz
Thereupon an excited colloquy ensued.
but the commander was so decisively
worsted in the argument that he be-
thought himself of a compromise Final
ly, happy thought struck him.
I'm going to leave this overcoat here
as a guarantee that I'll pay for this
drink. That ought to satisfy you. A
man can't wear an overcoat this kind OF
weather, anyway" he added.
So the overcoat was held hostage until
f'iateI In the afternoon. Commander Peary
might have given certain polar watch
charm OF his instead Of the overcoat, but
he would not run the risk Of losing Il.
1t Is altogether too valuable for that

STRAIGHT SPINE A NECESSITY
When 1t Ii Curved the Entire Physical
Organization Suffers

From the Youths Companion.
1t is only necessary to glance casual
ly at our fellow men and women in our
daily journeyings to be impressed with
the fact that very few people carry their
bodies properly; still fewer ever stop to
think how grave is the injustice they
thereby do themselves. not only as re-
CARDS appearance, but in their general
health and we'll being.
In the Spartan days of the last century
it was demanded of the children that
they hold themselves erect. This was
often the cause of much well meant
cruelty to the delicate children and re-
suited in a sort Of spinal survival of the
fttest, as proved by the erect old peo-
pie Of that day who boosted of never
having troubled a chairback in their
lives; and it is no wonder that the
spines that survived the schoolroom fur
niture of that day emerged from the
ordeal strong enough for the rest of their
days.
But people began to realize that when
Spartan methods did not make they

When standing, that position of the

In which the body can properly carry
on Its functions.
The first thing gained by proper car

Is good chest expansion. This means
that the lungs have room In which to

also suffer.
The heart needs all the room allotted
to 1t by nature. and II this room Is mar
rowed by a habitual stoop, its action
will be impeded.
Good posture is of great importance to
depend upon 1t largely for proper sup

the stomach and kidneys and liver can
not maintain their respective relations to

an American lady inspired a member OF
the royal family, the Duke d Abruzzi, TO
write books, but 1t Is literally true TO
say that the forthcoming volume from the
dukes pen would not have been written
now were 1t not for the difficulties con-
nected with his marriage with Miss Elk
ms. His latest visit to the Himalaya
mountains originated in these troubles.
And to that visit may be traced the new
volume which will see the light one OF
these days. The duke Is to the Himalaya
mountains what Sir William Martin Con-
way Is to the Alps. .s5
Mountains seem to have a special at
traction for the Duke D'Abruzzi. His
very title comes from the mountains
Abruzzi Is the name of the uncivilized
part of the Central Apennines, a high

tains of the Moon have also furnished
him a theme for an interesting volume
published some years ago. The Duke is

lum.
We do, however, owe the African diary
of the Count de Turin, at least In d re-

old Roman noble family. The royal count
fell deeply in love with Miss Arethusa
Schuyler Ross of New York. The Dow
ager Queen Margherita. having other am.
billions for her nephews than marrying
them to American beauties, had the young
man packed off to darkest Africa. The
result Is a diary of travel and adventure
and chronicles of fora and fauna anu
