The era OF pole hunting is now hap

regions can henCefOrth be attacked
with single mind From scientific
standpoint enough work remains to be
done In these regions to last for sev.
eral generations.
The antarctic has only been scratch.

scales used in school Biographies the
average man goes through life with
badly warped ideas concerning the rel.
Htive sizes Of various parts OF the
earth's surface, and so probably few
people realize that the antarctic cont
nent is very much larger than Europe
in fact, about as large as Europe and
Australia combined, or this huge con
tinent we do not know even the shape
and location OF the coast line, except
for one long stretch south OF Australia
and a few widely scattered points else
where while the whole interior, apart
from a narrow wedge between Ross
sea and the pole, is virtually blank on
our maps.
In the arctic a patch Of million
square miles is still absolutely un-

One of the great conquests Of science
for human safety will be the discovery
Of some effectual means Of disclosing
to every ship at sea the approach and
position of any other vessel which may
come near in n fog So far the fog
peril remains as deadly as 1t ever was.
In some respects the conditions change
for the worse The growth Of com.
merce Increases the number Of ships
which traverse the seas. Every year
the water highways are more fully oc-
cupied, and the tendency Is toward a
higher average speed. Nothing can be
seen through dense fog. Nothing can
be heard with sufficient distinctness
and certainty as to distance and direc.
ton to meet the demands Of safety,
The best fog signals in use repeatedly
fail to avert terrible dIsasters.-Cleve-

One morning merchant whose
goods did not very strongly substanti.
ate his advertising claims put out a
new sign. lie was pleased to see that
a great many people stopped to read 1t,
but directly he was puzzled and an
gered to notice that they all went on,
laughing. There was nothing funny
about the sign. 1t merely read;
II You Buy Here Once
You WIN Come Again,
The merchant went outside in n cas-,
ual sort of way and glanced at his sign
TO see what was the matter. Some
one, no doubt former customer, had
added another line 1t now read:
II You Buy Here Once
You WIN Come Again
no Bring II Back.

CRUELTY TO ANIMALS.
The Old Time Custom sf "Ple"ins al

Animals seem to have no idea Of ex.

but perhaps II one had only a limited
amount OF fuel il would be better just
to keep a spark alive till the snap was
over than 10 burn 1t all out In q few
hours.
The frst legislation against cruelty to
animals is said 10 have been an enact
ment passed IN the days OF Queen
Elizabeth prohibiting blowing at the
horses tail" as then practlced in Ire
land
This custom consisted In lashlng the
plow beam 10 the horses tail with
bit Of rope and then, while one man
held the plOw, another walked back
ward before the animal, guiding It with
blows OF stick. IL seems as though
this plan must have cooked the plOw
so high into the air that the point
would take no hold on the soil. 1t
seems also as II only the most spirit
less Of equines would have submitted
10 the treatment, but that 1t was fire.

The cruelty Of the practice needs no
demonstration, ii could not have been
profitable, but was perhaps preferable

WELCOME GEESE.
An UnsSpsetsd and Badly Needed
Feast In the Arctic.


Noah IN bis ark could not have been
more delighted over the return OF the
dove than were the members Of Ejnar
Mikkelsens party, IN the desert OF
Greenland ice, With the sight OF
flock OF wild geese In Lost In the
Arctic" Captain Mikkelsen tells OF
their need OF food, Of the fatigue Of a
long sledge journey and Of bis own III
ness. He had become so weak that be
was obliged 10 ride on the sledge Con
sequently their progress was very slow.
We drive on between a lot OF little
islands or banks Of glacial fee. Sud
enly IversOn makes a snatch al the
sledge, causing the dogs TO halt In as
tonshment and whispers eagerly,
Look, look! What's thatY' He points

round stones. and ! can scarcely be

He takes aim. fires and the whole
flock rises Stop minute! Isn't there
one on the ground? ! snatch np the
glass. Not one, but two are left upon
the field. and after following the shrek
Ing flock a little way lverson returns,
beamlng with Joy, big fat goose in
either hand. We are delighted and
drive off southward In the best OF
spirits Iyerson even stops every now
and then TO feel the splendid fat bodies
Of the birds, and we do nothing but
talk OF what feast we are to have
when they are cooked The dogs are
doing their best lverson marches at
the rear Of the sledge, singing at the
top Of his voice, and even feel lit
