William J. Burns, seated at his desk

Sometimes. again. we oppose guile

Appeals TO Adventurous.

Though some Of those who know
the polar regions develop a kind OF
love for them, the experience Of two
British explorers who spent year on
an Antarctic island with no shelter
but an overturned boat must have been
a severe test Of whatever affection
they may have had for those attitudes.
T. w. Bagshawe, geologist. and Lieu
tenant c. NJ. Lester, navigating officer,
had provisions, dogs and scientific in
struments 10 keep them company when
their companions sailed north. leaving
the two 10 make observations. The re-
turn expedition fell into financial diff
ficulties and sent a rescue ship back
only In the nick Of time. Besides
scientific interest, ventures into the
far north and the far south probably
are actuated by what one may call
sporting impulse. With them II is
game. They return again and again,
and with success comes a genuine llk-
ing for the icy seas and archipelagoes,
such as led Stefansson to call the
northern polar region "the friendly
arctic."-New York Sun.

HINT TO SUCCESS SEEKERS
"cuItIvate the Thrifty. You May Need
Their Savings" 10 Advice Civ
en- by Humorlst-

Honesty and industry are requisite
of success In business. The young
man who Is determined TO become very
wealthy must therefore cultivate per-
sons who are honest and industrious,
writes Don Marquis In the New York
Sun. Honest and Industrious persons
are very apt to believe In the integrity
of others. and this makes 1t far cas-
Ter for an enterprising young man To
do business with them advantageously
than IL they were self-seeking and sus-
picious. Profits are always TO be de-
rived from honesty and industry, If
the thing is managed cleverly.
Thrift cannot be too highly COM
mended. Teach all those with whom
you come in contact TO be saving. You
never know when you may need the'i
savings TO finance one Of your rem
lures. Analyze any great fortune and
you will find that II is built Of small
savings.
Sobriety cannot be too highly
praised. The staid and sober person
is dependable. You can count on him
receiving q certain calculable income
year in and year out; and if you have
enough persons of this sort on your
list you are building on n solid foun-
dation; there need he nothing hap
hazard about your methods.
Steadily, so many hours n day.
reliable, specified number of sober me-
thodical persons are pillng up for you
each his modest proportion Of incre-
ment, and at stated seasons IL be-
comes yours just as the apiary gar
ners n proportion Of the honey from
the hives. The wastrel may have mon
ey at times. and It is usually easy 10
get 1t away from him when he has IT;
but he is not dependable; there will
always be occasions when others will
get to him first.
Build your own list, and make your
relations with the persons on N perma-
nent. 1t is better in any event never
to associate with wastrels. They are
not moral persons, and you must be
come known as man with moral as

IN QUIET TOBACCO
West Indian Island the Home Of
Many Birds.
Species Of Some OF the Most Beautiful
Feathered Creatures in the
World Are There.

In the little island of Tobago. the
ward of Trinidad in the West Indies
and lying TO the northwest, birds are
seen at their best and are tame enough
to be studied easily, writes Dudley s.
Corlett in the Los Angeles Times.
AT sunset one may see the regular
formations OF famngoes, like a rosy
cloud, heading for the mainland OF
Venezuela. Along the shore the peli-
cans are numerous-clumsy and OF
dull plumage, that sail all day up and
down the margin of the shore watch
ing for fish. They drop down with tre-
mendous velocity, and opening wide
their great bills sweep the fish into
the pouch which acts as a sein. Then
they raise their heads from the sea
so that the water may drain from the
pouch and leave the fish In the proper
position for swallowing. The little
gulls perch on their heads awaiting for
any chance bits that may fall from
an over-full pouch.
In the dark mangrove swamps one
sees the gray heron, white egrets, bit
tern and coOt The gorgeous macaw

livery is only rare visitor from the
mainland, but there are flocks of green
parrots and noisy parrakeets in ev-
cry forest glade. Toucans, glossy

low crests, clatter from the tree tops

There are not many songsters, save
a hooking bird, the black and yellow

of all-the bluebird-the bird of happi

soft gray-bue his breast, and he feasts
on the ripest fruits or hops unafraid
and into the house after stray beetles.
Tobago should adopt the buebird as
IT'S crest. for in the faces OF the peo-
pie shine the gift of happiness, wheth-
or it be in the bronzed features OF the
white planters who have elected 10 lead
the simple life on this little island
or whether 1t be on the shining black
faces Of the negroes. As Tobago was
a British possession when Trinidad
was still Spanish, there are hardly
any French or Spanish creoes, and
most of the estates belong to the de-
scendants OF old Scotch families.
