Winter

THE story of the expedition has
l. been reconstructed from rec
ords found by the search parties.
The Erebus and Terror had sailed
through Bafin's bay and past
Beechy Island to the then un-
explored waters of Wellington chan
mel. They passed through the cham
mel and sailed on for $50 miles.
The ice was beginning to grow
thicker, for winter was approaching.
Accordingly, Franklin decided 1t WAS.
time to put up for the winter. The
boats were sailed into harbor, the
rigging removed, and snow heaped
against the sides of the vessels to
conserve heat within them. They
were within $50 miles of the end of
their journey at the time.
Three members of the expedition
died during that winter. Their
deaths were attested by the three
headstones found later by the search
parties who retraced the path OF
the expedition.
The voyage was resumed in July
anu dIOlIl6I 4UU lIIl4tS COFcIcG DS~
fore winter again settled down upon
the expedition. Only 100 miles re-
NAMED to be travelled, but that 100
miles was blocked with heavy ice
foes.
The winter of 1867 was passed
off the extreme northly point of
King Williams Land. Suffering was
even more severe during this winter.
In May. before the ships were
iCosed from the ice, Franklin sent
Lieutenant Graham Gore and
party of seven men ahead with sleds
to see what the prospects ahead
were like.
Gore skirted the coast Of King
Williams Land and reached a high
point from which he could see the
coast of the mainland fading away
to the horizon with sea of ice in
front of it. 1t was the end Of the
northwest passage.

'Rust-Proof Kits.

A handsome gift for those suspect
ed OF being picnic addicts Is a leather
case containing a luncheon set for
four persons-a Jar for liquids. q
wide-mouthed jug for hot or chilled
foods. and a flat leather case fitting
in snugly and containing plates. spe-
cial flat knives, forks. spoons. also

In addition to paper t~ablecloths,

for the waterproof fabrics as picnic
accessories. They are light, vet a
somewhat sturdier foundation for a

can BE- bought in large finished
squares. or by the yard. and will
stand a good deal Of rough wear.
Also the little accidents that occa-
sionaNy spoil the paper-laid picnic
table car be obliterated quickly from
the waterproof cover and neatness
quickly restored.
A set Of metal cups with folding
handles, so made that they nest in
each other. is another new aid to
comfortable picnicking. Half a
dozen OF these cups take up little
more space than a single ordinary
cup. But when ready TO use the
handles can be opened up and snap
into place firmly. Some OF the
vacuum jugs are so made that a nest
OF four to six cups fits within the
cover. taking up little more room
than a single top.
All picnic equipment should be OF
rust-proof material throughout, or il
will be unsightly after a few trips.

No Infallible Method.

Once experimental with. q lifelong
occupation IL begun. at least until
such time as some perfectly safe, re-
liable and infallihle method for re-
moving hair permanently has been
developed
OF course. there are many methods
now which lead one TO believe that
the impossible has been achieved. Nv
one word on this is consult your
FAMILY doctor . before placing
yourself In the hands OF any person
who promises golden results.
E~lectrolysis, the science OF remov-
ing hair with an electric needle. fire.
quently is recommended by reputable
doctors. but only after they have in
vestigated the ability OF the operator
they suggest Some truly remark
able results have been gained from
this method. but many unsuccessful
ones, too. are registered in the an
mails OF medical science.
The method is reliable, but Il "a
only when thoroughly competent op-
orators handle the electric needle
that beneficial results are gained

Be Sure It's Safe.

Experienced operators who have
long lists OF patrons. whom they
have successfully treated, all agree
that after months OF experience a
sensitive feel" Of the instrument is
developed so that almost by instinct
alone the electric needle is inserted
into the hair cells to just the right
point. Until IN operator gains that
indefinable something which guides
her fingers. a removal OF hair with
an electric needle cannot be abso-
lutely safe for the patron. Doctors
hold the same view on the matter,
expressed in almost the same phrase
ology as the operators use. There
fore. I can't help but feel that safety
for you lies in following your doc
tors advice about the removal OF
superfluous hair by electrolysis.
Light treatments are equally pre-
carious. Let your doctor advise you
about this and then abide by his
ruling.
Almost any day now someone In
going 70 come forth with a reliable
remedy and so let US be content with
h temporary relief suggestions
which have proven safe and fairly
satisfactory until that day comes.

pear on this page Thursday. I'll tell
you OF some safe and effective meth

Says Beauty Expert, Warning
Against Haphazard Methods.
By Josephine Huddleston

By Josephine Huddleston
IT SEEMS to me that the super
fluous hair problem becomes
more acute in the Summer
than it does in colder seasons,
probably because we wear less
clothing -. not that we are overly
burdened with it at any time in
these em~ancipated days! But what
with sleeveless frocks for all occa-
sions, to say nothing Of bathing
suits that reveal far more than they
conceal. we do find superfluous hair
q bore and a bother.
Sometimes bleaching solves the
problem. but more often the hair
must be removed. especially II il has
been tempered with previously. How

1T may accompany some constitu-
tional disease or appear after a
period OF strain. Tobacco smoke. or
Irritating gases. drafts OF air or get
ting wet may cause l~aryngitis.
The first symptom of laryngihs Is
-hoarseness. II hurts TO talk or to
swallow. The throat aches and the
victim feels uncomfortable in gen.
eral. In an acute attack there may
be fever, increased heart action.
headache and much discomfort.
Sometimes there is a complete loss
OF voice. Mucous is coughed up IN
considerable quantities. and possibly
some blood. The coughing is the
most prominent symptom. Some
persons who use their voices much
OF the time may be afflicted with
laryngitis.
Those who have trained voices
seldom have these troubles. Their
vocal cords are properly used. They
use the organs so that there Is an
absence Of strain.
One OF the why a cold
should not be neglected is because
OF danger OF the infection spreading
70 the larynx or ears. Inflamma-
ton begins in the mucous membrane
OF the nose and may extend down
the whole length OF the bronchial
tubes. This is OF common occur
renee IN persons with & slightly run
down condition.
During an acute attack OF laryn-
gifts special attention must be given
TO the bowels to keep them open.
The patient should be kept warm IN
bed. with the windows open for ven
tilation. He should be given only
the most simple food.
Spraying the throat with a hot
boracic acid solution or some good
alkaline spray is excellent. II the
throat is not too sore a gargle OF hot
water will ease the throat.
