THE ANTARCTIC CONTINENT.
II Was First Discovered by . Daring
Yankee Sailor In 1921.

Yankee Sailor In 1921.
History presents from time to
time some curious anomalies, and
not the least among these is the
story of the original discovery of
the great continent surrounding
the south pole, says Outing. 4
grim, inaccessible coast, guarded
from mans approach by fields of
impossible ice foes and bergs, it
resisted all efforts of the ablest of
early explorers to win it's shores,
only to be discovered at last by a
boy of eighteen in command of a
little forty ton sloop.
Nathaniel Palmer was the lads
name, and he came of the best of
old New England seafaring stock.
After some preliminary training at
sea, young Palmer sailed in 1912 or
1911 as second mate of a bark
bound for the sealing grounds Of
the south Atlantic. After some
weeks of fruitless exploration ana
terrific struggles with the wintry
gales of the region about Cape
Horn they came at last to the south
Shetland islands and soon had fill
ed the vessels hold with fortune
in furs.
This voyage made such a stir in
all the New England seaport towns
o. their return that before many
years Il second expedition was fitted
out and Palmer, now Captain Nat,
was given command of little down
east sloop called the Hero, which
was sent along in consort with the
larger vessels. This diminutive
craft could hardly have been more
than sixty feet in length, but she
weathcrcd successfully the rigors of
wind and sea and arrived in due
course at her destination.
At this time nothing was known
Of the existence of any land Of
continental extent within the ant.
arctic circle-nor did Captain Nat
much care whether there was such
or not. What he was looking for
was seals. So when he came upon
long stretch of coast line facing
to the north in the vicinity of the
siXtieth meridian west of Green
wich he examined the shore for
possible rookeries and, finding moth
ing but ice and penguins, sailed
away back again to the north'ard.
A few days after this the little
| Hero fell in with two tall ships of
the Russian navy under Command
er Bcllingshausen. When young
Palmer went on board for lunch at
the commanders invitation and
mentioned casually his discovery of
land to the southland he must have
been surprised, indeed, to learn that
that which he in his little sloop had
Numbered upon unsought and had
turned away from in disgust, these
mighty ships of the car of all the
Russias had for two years been
seeking in vain.
Commander Bellingshausen, to
do him justice, gave young Palmer
full credit for his discovery, and
this-the first portion of the ant
arctic continent to be seen by man
is set down upon the maps today
as Palmerland in enduring tribute
to the daring Of the Yankee sailor
lad who first caught sight of it from
the deck of little sailboat in the
year Of grace 1921.

The Sequel to the Joke.

Many years ago visitor to Edin.
burgh was being shown over the high
court of justiciary. He made some re-
mark concerning the dock and it's du-
ties. and in reply the official jokingly
said the visitor might one day be sem
fenced to be hanged in that very room.
The sightseer was the notorious DR..
Pritchard. Two years later in the dock
he had SO closely inspected he was
doomed to death for poisoning his wife
and mother-in-law.

1t Is important to have an answer to
this question before we let you in
1 shall start gambling house"
u, no, you won't, my friend; the
principle of gambling is principle OF
getting something for nothing, and
would be utterly subversive Of So

No. you will not: for we will de-

You may not even build house Of
such material as you happen to pre-
fer. We legislate on all these matters
in the interest of the majority"
We'll. then; 1 will start an opium

No. we will have an ordinance
against that whenever you attempt
such an atrocity.''
But if you are so hard on me, / viii.
start a saloon instead
No, you will not, my friend and
for the self same reason that we will
not tolerate the traffic in opium-pois-
on gathered from poppies-we will not
let you sell the alcohol poison dis
titled from fruits and grains. The
opening of your saloon would be the
opening of Pandora's box it would
light the incendiarys torch, impel the
random bullet and the pernicious
knife stroke, and descend in heaviest
blows on the gentlest. and most limo

of the insanity, eighty pct cent. OF
pauperism and ninety per cent. OF
crime are caused by strong drink.
The personal liberty the dealer really
seeks in his own liberty to enslave
class. His practice proves too much
against his theory. In proportion as
the slavery of the drink appetite en-
chains his patrons are his own re
ceipts increased Ours is a country
where each man is supposed to be
king over one-that one himself-but
when the integers in the problem OF
free government are systematically
converted into ciphers by the effects
of strong drink and the education OF
the saloon. then is the danger wide
spread and appalling. The home too
has its rights which the saloon Is
bound to respect.
