the famous, arctic explorer home mt
Christiania Instantly the window was
opened. ana in another moment she
covered the little messenger with
kisses and caresses. The carrier pigeon
had been away from the cottage thirty
long months. but it had not forgotten
the way home. 1t brought note from
NanSen. stating that all was going well
with him and his expedition in the
polar region. Nansen had fastened a
message to the bird and turned it
loose. The frail courier darted out into
the blizzardly air. 1t flew like an ar
row over II thousand miles of frozen
waste and then sped forward over an
other thousand miles of ocean and
plains and forests and one morning
entered the window of the waiting
mistress and delivered the message
which she had been awaiting so anx-
