NO SLEEPING BAG FOR THEM
Laplaaders Preferred the Snow and
the Open Air, and So Had
Comfortable Night.

Sir Henry Lucy tells in the Corn
hill Magazine a good story that he
had from Nansen, the explorer. It
amusingly illustrates the hardy health
Of the Laplanders.
Part of Nansen's equipment for his
trip across Greenland consisted Of two
sleeping-bags made Of undressed
skins. On the first night Of the Jour
ney Nansenl and his two Norwegian
companions got into one Of the bags,
pulled the mouth tight across their
nacks, and SO slept in the snow with
only their heads out.
Before retiring for rest, Nansen saw
the three Laplanders he had engaged
for the expedition cozily tucked into
the other sleepingbag When he
awoke in the morning, almost numb
with cold, he observed that the bag
in which he had tied up the Lapland-
ers was empty, and that they were no
where in sight. He was afraid they
had deserted him, and scrambling
oue VI Cne Dag, went IN sedIcH ol
them. He found the three men fast
asleep behind a hillock of snow that
they had scraped together as a pro
lection against the wind.
"Ah, master" they said, when ask
ed to explain this extraordinary con-
duct, I'VE couldn't sleep in that thing.
It was too hot, so we got out and
have had comfortable night here"

Nn strannera AlIowed.

Frank H. Hitchcock, the postmaster
general Of the United States, takes the
deepest interest in even the smallest
details of the postal service One eve
ming he was at the Union station in
Washington, when he decided to go
Into one Of the railway mail service
cars to see how the mail matter was
being handled, Being a tall man and
very athletic, he easily swung himself
from the platform into the car, but he
did not find 1t an easy matter to stay
put. A burly postal clerk grabbed
him by the shoulders, propelled him
toward the side door, and practi-
cally elected him to the platform be-
low.
What do you mean by that?" ask
ed Hitchcock Indignantly.
Il mean to keep you out Of this
car" replied the clerk roughly That
fellow Hitchcock has given us strict
orders to keep all strangers out Of
these cars. Popular Magazine.

FRESH AIR THE FIRST
OF ALL MEANS or IMPROVING
COMPLEXION, THE BEST.
No Cream, Lotion, or Bleach Can Be
Compared to lt--ProperIy Feed
the Lungs at Night as Well
as Day.

How large a part does fresh air
play in the numerous plans you are
making for improving your looks? Is it
not true that you have alreay selected
the cream and lotion you will use, and
the kind of bleach you think you will
prefer? believe that you have even de-
cided which new face powder you will
try in place Of the old which has
proved unsatisfactory But how about
your plans for the greatest beautifier
OF all, fresh air?
Not fresh air once in a while, when
you happen to 80 out doors not even
the daily airing out of your living
rooms or the office-not the tiny crack
at the top of the window which let's in
an occasional Whit OF fresh air when
the wind happens to blow on the side
Of the house where your sleeping room
is situated. Not one or all of these
precautions will answer the purpose.
If you would be really beautiful; il
you would have a clear complexion
with that indehnable bloom which is
50 fascinating; il you would have
bright eyes and peachblow tints, you
must have fresh air, not occasionally,
but all the time. Your lungs must be
supplied with oxygen in order that the
blood which circulates through your
veins will be the rich, red blood that
brings health and vitality and good
digestion.
If fresh air is good for you at any
time, there is no time when 1t is not
good for you. If your lungs need fresh
air In the daytime, they certainly need
1T at night. Fresh air means clean air;
air which has not become vitiated with
waste matter. You would hesitate to
take into your stomach anything you
knew was not clearly, but do not stop
to realize that frequently the air you
are taking into your lungs is positive
" unclean, unwholesome and I'M
healthful?
The first rudiments of hygiene will
teach lis the necessity for fresh air If
we would be beautiful We can also
make an almost immediate demonstra-
ton for ourselves, because a sallow
skin will show marked Improvement
In less than a week when the constant
inhalation Of perfectly fresh air has
replaced the careless habit of breath
ing vitiated air from unVentilated
rooms.
If you are troubled with pimples and
eruptions of the skin, fresh air may not
eliminate them entirely, but 1t will be
Of great assistance If your eyes are
not bright, and your head feels dull
and stupid, try the open air remedy for
twenty-four hours of the day. l can
almost guarantee that the dullness win
vanish and not return till you are COM
PEELED to spend another day in an at
mosphere that has been breathed and
rebreathed, till 1t is not fit for hui
man being to dwell in.
So great is my faith in the many
benefits to be derived from the con-
slant dwelling In an atmosphere that
is clean and wholesome and pure, that
/ believe would suggest fresh air as
the first requisite for beauty, and then
follow with the list of creams and To-
lions and bleaches and depilatories |
and all the other desired and desirable
beautifiers.

THE DOCTRINE
 OF ATONEMEN1
Subject of Sermon by Dr. Thornton of Central M. E. Church at the Plaza Meeting Last Night Large Crowd Present.

The address at the union meeting on the plaza yesterday evening WIS delivered by pr. Thornton of the Central NJ. F. church south. The sermon dealt with the atonement and the Christian doctrine of the remls- sion of sins. Several hundred people. as on the preceding Sunday evening, attended the service. d large number being unable to obtain seats, although generous provision had been made for the comfort of the audience in this respect.
 ..Wherafore. he is able to save to the uttermost all them that come to God by him." was the text on which Dr. Thorntons sermon was based. There was first reference to the Jewish worship under the old dispen- sation when the priest offered dallN sacrifice for the remission Of SinS. Then the priesthood of Jesus was touched upon and q distinction be- tween the old and the new dispen- sations outlined. The priest of the Old Testament died and passed away, said the speaker. and with the end of that era came Christ, who offered himself a sacrifice for all men, and who remains a high priest forever.
 There were liberal scriptural quo tations dealing with the power of Christ his mission as q savior, and his intercession for all the people of the world The declaration of St. Paul that Christ is able to save even to the uttermost" was then quoted again, and the speaker asked:
 Prom what is Christ to save us? There is just one destructive agency 1 from which we need salvation, and 1 that is sin It is from sin this sal vation is promised. and it is q saliva 1 ton that is for you and for men and
 for all men.
 We become so accustomed to sin | that we treat it with familiarity. We | welcome it. live with it, and at last it
 asserts it's power over us. can ] point you to magnificent. churches in some of our cities, churches that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, and
 with congregations representing mill
 lions of dollars of wealth. And yet
 probably from years end to years
 end not q soul in q single one of
 those churches is born into the king
 dom of Christ What is the reason Why are the promises of God appar cntIy of no avail? For just one req - son-sn has entered into those churches and so long as sin is wei come there it's destructive agency and the blight of it's presence will con- | tinue."
 Il Dr. Thornton then turned his atten- tion briefly to the subject of infidel- l ity, especially infidelity that denies the virtue of the atOnement. 'I tel you, that is the most dangerous form of unfelief that can be practiced" he said. We think it an awful thing il
 men deny the existence of God. but the truth is the most dangerous form
 of unbelief is that which denies the doctrine of the atOnement"

 With q number of other children of the same age. the little girl was playing on the bank of the canal about S:30 She was seen to slip and fall into the water by several neighbors who rushed to the waters edge, but the current was strong and had carried her under the planliing of the bridge Cries for help wera responded to by many pass ersbY, among them several young men in immaculate white suits.

 Captain BriSboiS, at that hour of the night cOIld not locate the coroner but as the cause of the death was so plainly known being witnessed by the neigh bors and plaYmates of the little girl. it was decided that an inquest would not be necessary.
