quarters in the antarctic regions hav.
ing been equipped with a plain bath
and a-steam bath. It is evident that
hunting poles isn't much more trouble
nowadays than going riding on one Of
the fast trains
We do hope that Amundsen had in
his party one of those people who are
always telling about taking their cold
plunge every morning. It would
reconcile us to climbing over Ice
mountains, eating pemmican and
things like that, just to hear him OBJ
ject to any one wanting a steam bath
with the temperature at the nice,
stimulating point Of 40 below.
Some wonder having been expressed
at .Amundsen's reaching the pole so
quickly, we hasten to point out that
as there are no Eskimo in the ant
arctic regions he did not have to car

are expected to settle is the yexing
