THE ACCESSORIES OF THE
WELLMAN POLAR EXPEDITION
Some of the Wonders of Science That Are to Be Used
in the Attempt to Reach the Pole.
what may be called the accessories
>f the equipment of the Wellman
oolar expedition are by no means
east in point of interest in the novel
mdertafcing to reach the north pole
tn an airship. The way in which the
txplorer has utilized the latest sci
entific discoveries and inventions in
tis coming battle with the elements
if the north form one of the most
interesting chapters in the story of
preparation. With the exception of
ihe airship itself the wireless tele
graph and the motor sledge, or, as
vlr. Wellman calls it, “the mechanical
dog." stand out as of peculiar interest.

panions be successful in reaching the

to more than 1,000 miles without re
lay. A complete wireless outfit forms
a part of the expedition’s apparatus
and one of the five men who will
make the trip in the airship is an
expert wireless telegraph operator and
mechanician.
At Hammerfest, Norway, a point ir
touch with the Atlantic cable, the first
wireless station has been established.
Station No. 2 will be at the base of
the expedition on Dane's island, and
wireless station No. 3 will be in the
airship. The "aerial,” which on land
and on sea-going ships is a mast, in
this case will be a wire suspended
from the airship, and which can be

The “Mechanical Dog.”
While it is unnecessary to point out
(hat. without the utmost confidence in
the efficiency and “staying” powers of
the airship, the promoters of this
epoch-making expedition would not
undertake it, yet this confidence has
not been of the blind sort that has
caused (hem to hurl caution to the
winds. Two supplemental provisions
have been made for insuring the suc
cess of the expedition and the lives
of the explorers. The most important
of these is the motor sledge which
is to be carried in the car of the air
ship and which, it is confidently be
lieved, will prove of the utmost value
in the event of accident to the airship
at any stage of the voyage. There are
two of these siedges, propelled by gas
oline motors. They have six-horse
power each. The motor is mounted on
runners, like those of the ordinary
sled, and the power is transmitted by
chain to a large front wheel which
has breadth enough to serve the pur
pose of a snowshoe and the periphery
of which is studded with projecting
spikes tp furnish ihe gripping power.
These "mechanical dogs” weigh 225
pounds each and can be carried by

wo men. They are so constructed
that they can be knocked down and
assembled quickly and when such ob

come they can be taken apart and
lauled by the explorers over the hard
places.
In all previous explorations the
Eskimo dog has been the traction
mainstay of the explorers. While the
tanine of the north has proved of the
greatest assistance in reaching high
iltitudes he has many drawbacks; but
rom his mechanical successor Mr.
vVellman expects, if compelled to for
sake his ship, to derive all the ad
vantages of the real dog and none
of the disadvantages. The motors used
In these novel sledges are air cooled,

The Wireless Telegraph.
Heretofore arctic explorers, after
*eaving their base of supplies, have
peen cut off from all communication
with the more southerly world. Hun
dreds of them have perished in places
not so remote but that they might
tave been succored had they been
ible to communicate with their base.
In this respect, as in all other ways,
;he Wellman expedition will differ
from all others, for direct communica
tion, not only with the base on Dane's
sland, hut with the commercial ca
ples of the world, is expected to be
maintained through the De Forest
wireless telegraph apparatus that
lorms an important part of the im
pedimenta of the expedition. The
wireless telegraph service, like the air
ship, while not having been brought
jo the highest stage of perfection or
tertainty of successful operation,
levertheless has become commercially
practicable and reasonably reliable,
decent tests at sea have lengthened
ditions to prevent the maintenance of
virtually constant communication be
tween the airship and the Dane island
station. In its present use at sea
there are often atmospheric disturb
ances which temporarily destroy the
usefulness of the wireless apparatus,
but these periods have been brief. It
is believed thoroughly by the experts

in wireless telegraphy that nothing
short of a catastrophe which wrecks
the ship and renders ail apparatus
useless will prevent the publishing
daily of dispatches from the explor
ers sailing poleward in the monster
airship. As the magnetic pole of the
earth has been found '1.200 miles from
the mathematical pole, on the coast
of North America, it is reasonably
certain tha’ at the mathematical pole
there will be encountered no magnetic
disturbances which will destroy the
usefuness of the wireless apparatus.
Moving Pictures Provided.
The importance of the expedition
is reflected significantly in the fact
that a London firm has sent cinemato
graph operators to Spitzbergen for the
purpose of catching on moving films
all the trial work done before the
serious flight: is undertaken. ' Already
these operators have been in Norway
photographing the trials of the “me
chanical dogs” and these films have
been shown in London with great suc
cess. Spitzbergen is as far as the

results, as shown by the moving pic

Prominent Minnesota Merchant Cored
to Stay Cured by Doan’s Kid

O. C. Hayden, of O. C. Hayden &

Lea, Minn., says: “I was so lame that
I could hardly walk.
There was an unac
countable weakness
of the back, and
constant pain and
aching. I could find
no rest and was
very uncomfortable
at night. As my
health was good in
every other way, I
could not understand
this trouble. It was just as if all the
strength had gone from my back.
After suffering for some time I began
using Doan’s Kidney Pills. The rem
edy acted at once upon the kidneys,
and when normal action was restored,
the trouble with my hack disappeared.
I have not had any return of it.”

“Cruising for Salvage.”
One man in New York sayg he
makes a good living by what he calls
cruising for salvage. He goes about
in an automobile and follows novices
trying to operate recently purchased
machines. If the machines break
down or stop he comes up in time to
offer his services as a tug or to offer
about half the value of the machine
if the owner is so disgusted that he
wishes to sell.
Sheer white goods, in fact, any fine
wash goods when new, owe much of
their attractiveness to fhe way they
are laundered, this being done in a
manner to enhance their textile beau
ty. Home laundering would be equal
ly satisfactory if proper attention was
given to starching, the first essential
being good Starch, which has sufficient
strength to stiffen, without thickening
the goods. Try Defiance Starch and
you will be pleasantly surprised at the
improved appearance of your work.

Light rays half a mile long and
24 times as powerful as the sort com

lime lights that have been invented
for the motorists. The lamp consists
of an oxy-petrol blowpipe flame play

material. A reservoir of material is
to be carried on the car and also a
cylinder of compressed oxygen. Pre
sumably a stream of oxygen under
pressure is saturated with petrol va
por and burnt in the blowpipe and
a small, extremely hot flame is pro

on something more refractory than
lime.

At a Township. Primary.
Martin, who is very hard of hearing,
arose in (he capeus and nominated
one Mr. Brown for the office of justice
of the pea-e.
Mr. Brown promptly arose and de
clined the nomination with thanks,
and while he had the floor he nom
inated Mr. Martin for the office.
Martin, not understanding what
Brown said, but evidently thinking it
some modest remonstrance, arose and
said:
‘‘Gentlemen of the Convention: We
now have before the house a man who
is not only worthy, hut is in every
way competent, and I move that nom
inations be closed, and he be elected
by acclamation, and it be made unan
imous.”—Judge’s Magazine of Fun.
Iodine a Cure for Snake'Bite.
For a sure cure for snake bite, take
about seven drops of iodine, scarify
■>nd bathe the wound also with iodine.
This remedy was first used by a med
ical officer in British service in In
dia. It has cured both man and a
number of animals; it never fails;
it is really wonderful in its effects.
One instance I will relate. A young
man working for me in the harvest
field was bitten by a very large rat
tlesnake on cine of his large toes. I
gave him about seven drops of tincture
of iodine on a little sugar, and to
make doubly sure repeated the dose
an hour later. His foot swelled, but
next morning he was all right. I have
had animals whose bodies have swelled
considerably, but all have recovered
from the bite.—Topeka Capital.
DIDN’T BELIEVE
That Coffee Was the Real Trouble.
Some people flounder around and
take everything that's recommended
but finally find that coffee is the reai
cause of their troubles. An Oregon
man says:
“For 25 years I was troubled with
my stomach. I was a steady coffee
drinker, but didn't suspect that as
the cause. I took almost anything
which someone else had been cured
with but to no good. I was very bad
last summer and could not work at
times.
“On Dec. 2. 1902, I was taken so
bad the doctor said I could not live
over 24 hours at the most, and I
made all preparations to die. I could
hardly eat anything, everything dis
tressed me, and I was weak and sick
all over. When in that condition cof
fee was abandoned and I was put on
Postum, the change in my feelings
came quickly after the drink that was
poisoning me was removed.
“The pain and sickness fell away
from me and I began to get well day
by day, so I stuck to it until now I
am well and strong again, can eat
heartily', with no headache, heart
trouble or the awful sickness of the
old coffee days. I drink all I wish of
Postum without any tarn and enjoy
it immensely.
“This seems like a strong story,
but I would refer you to the First
Nat’l Bank, the Trust Banking Com
pany, or any merchant of Grant’s
Pass, Ore., in regard to my standing,
and I will send a sworn statement
of this if you wish. You can also use
my name.” Name given by Postum
Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
Still there are many who persist
ently fool themselves by saying “Cof
fee don’t hurt me.” A ten days’ trial
of Postum in Its place will tell the
truth and many times save life.
“There’s a reason.”

FOUR YEARS OF AGONY.
Whole Foot Nothing But Proud Flesh
—Had to Use Crutches—“Cuti
cura Remedies the Best on
Earth.”
"In the year 1899 the side of my
right foot was cut off from the little
toe down to the heel, and the physi
cian who had charge of me was try
ing to sew up the side of my foot, but
with no success. At last my whole
foot and way up above my calf was
nothing but proud flesh. I suffered un
told agonies for four years, and tried
different physicians and all kinds of
ointments. I could walk only with
crutches. In two weeks afterwards I
saw a change in my limb. Then I be
gan using Cuticura Soap and Oint
ment often during the day, and kept
it up for seven months, when my
limb was healed up just the same as
if I never had trouble. It is eight
months now since I stopped using
Cuticura Remedies, the best on God’s
earth. I am working at the present
day after five years of suffering The
cost of Cuticura Ointment and Soap
was only $6, but the doctors’ bills
were more like $600. John M. Lloyd,

A well-known criminal lawyer one

as a case was called.- It appeared that
the defendant had no attorney, and
the judge glanced about the room to
see whom he might assign to the case.
“I’ll take it. judge,” the late comer
said, wishing to pass away the time.
“By the way, what is the man
charged with?” the attorney presently
asked.
“He's a camera fiend of the worst
j sort, Mr. Brown.” the judge said
with a slight smile. “I expect to send
him to the workhouse for about three
months.”
“What!” the lawyer shouted, indig
nantly. “Your honor must 1 o joking.

Sunday Best in Italy.
The question of Sunday rest is be

and a commission was named some
time ago which recommended that as
far as possible an uninterrupted rest
of from 32 to 36 hours should be in
sured to all the working classes, and
that in case of public services, the
men who worked on Sundays should
have one day off in the week by turns,
domestic servants being entitled to
a half holiday a week. The law does

Nothing Succeeds Like “EGG-O-SEE.”
The man who preaches the best ser
mon; the man who tells the funniest
stories; the man who keeps the best
store; or the man who makes the best
goods soon finds that people come to
him. Merit is the best advertisement
in the world. People speak well of
things they know are good. They pass
the good word along.
The best breakfast food is EGG-O
SEE, for it contains all the life-giving
properties of nature’s best food, which
is wheat.
EGG-O-SEE is deeply in debt to the
thousands of wives and mothers who
use it in their homes, for these good
women tell their neighbors about this
great food.
Children and aged persons alike are
friends of EGG-O-SEE.
Merit and common sense are the
things that advertise EGG-O-SEE
most. EGG-O-SEE is cheap. A 10
cent package contains ten liberal
breakfasts. EGG-O-SEE is sold every- j
where. Grocers must keep it if they
want to keep their good customers,
for good customers insist on buying
EGG-O-SEE.
The fact that no preparation, no
cooking is required, makes EGG-O
SEE very popular. Open the package;
put as much as you like in a dish;
pour on milk or cream and eat. It
is delicious. It is wholesome. It
makes you strong.
A lot' of interesting facts about
EGG-O-SEE have been published in

English Language in Antwerp.
Nearly one-half of the shipping traf
fic to and from Antwerp is carried on
under the British and American flags,
and this has made Antwerp almost an
English-speaking port. Free night
schools for exclusive classes in Eng
lish, organized by the city authori
ties, are attended by thousands of
pupils, while special attention is paid
to the study of English in all the
grades of the day schools, public as
well as private. This desire to pop
ularize the English language is not
confined to Belgium, but has extended
to Germany as well, where schools of
instruction have already been estab
lished at Munich and Nuremberg by
the German government.
_
Avoid Government Service.
The students from the Italian uni
versities and government school are
no longer content to seek poorly paid
government employment or to enter
into the ranks of the overcrowded pro
fessions, but are seeking technical

the new movement and make an ade
quate future for themselves.
