Cook, I has captured the honor for which dnrlng spirits for centuries have sac llllced life and limb. That magic point known as tho north polo has llnally been located by man, and the quest of ages Is at an end. The story of explorations Is a ro cltal of dire adventure and tragedies which runs back 1,000 years to the time when tho Irish monk, Dlcull, with a number of his clerical brothers, sailed as far north as Iceland and found, as the writings of Dlcull stato, that there was no daiknoss In Iceland during the summer solstice. Hut long before tho ninth century the nnclonts, according to l'htheas, had a lcgendry knowledge of a tar north ern Island known as Thule. And in the first book of his translation ot Oi oslus, King Alfred told of the first voy ages for discovery made by Other and Wulfstan. While the localities men- Camp of an Exploration Party. tloned cannot now bo located, It Is probable that Other lounded North rape and visited the coast of Lapland. In 1S15 polar exploration found a promoter In Sir John Harrow, who of fered a reward of 20,000 Bterllng to anyone making tho northwest pnssago, and 5,000 for reaching 89 degrees north latitude, which would bo C9 miles south or tho pole. After Barrow Prize. Two years later, in 1817, two expedi tions set out, one by wny of Spitz bergen, the other by Haflln's bay. The Dorothea and the Tient, on the Spits bergen loute, were commanded by Cnpt. David Hiichen and Lieut. John Franklin. The other expedition was In chaigo or Capt. John Koss and Lieut. Kdwnrd Pair'. Neither expe dition was a success. In 1S27 Parry on his third voyage mado his historic dash for the polo tram Spltzbeigen by sledge boats and i cached latitude S2 degiees and 42 minutes. In 1S4T) Sir John Franklin made his A Polar Exploration tragic voyage. His ships, tho Erebus j mill tho Torrnr tvorn onnn liv ti vlinllr In July, 1815, and thnt was tho last trnco. For three years tho Hrltlsh ad miralty, spurred on by Lady Franklin, sent out relief expeditions, but tho only reward of tho searchers was the discovery of tho growsomo rollcs of a frightful tragedy. Ono vessel had been erusliod In tho lco, tho other had been stranded on tho shoro of King Wllllnm's Island. Threo winters In tho north had reduced tho explorers to skeletons, nnd they had fallen ono by ono by tho way In an offort to drag their sledges over tho lco to a land camp.

In 1897 Androo and two companions left Danes Itland from a point only n few hundred ynids from Waltor Well man's camp In an attempt to reach the polo by balloon. It was not a dirigible balloon and tho hopo of tho explorers wns that the winds would blow It up to tho pole.

Union Pacific Passenger Depart nient announces that Colonist Fares will be In eflect from Sept 15 to Oct 15, 1909, to all points lu the West and Noithwest. This year the West looks more promising than ever. Now Is the time to secure land at low prices, and, at the same lime, to visit the many Inter ' eating points in the West and North west, at which liberal stopover ar rangenients may be ninile. A better estimate of raw lands can be made now than formerly, because these lands are In proximity to new farms that are producing wonderful crops. For descriptive literature, write to K. L.

No man can bo strong who is suffering from weak stomach with its consequent indigestion, or from mmc other ditcaso oi the stomach and its associated organs, which im pairs digestion nnd nutrition. For when tho stomach is weak or diseased thero is a loss of the nutrition contained in food, which is tho source of all physical strength. When a man " doesn't feel just right," when he doesn't bleep well, has an uncomfortable feeling in tho stomach altercating, is languid, nervous, irritable and despond J cnt, he is losing tho nutrition needed to mako strength. Such a man should uso Dr. Pierce's Golden Nodical Discovery. It cures diseases of tho stomach and other organs ot digestion and nutrition. It enriches tho blood, invigorates tho liver, strengthens tho kidneys, nourishes the nerves, and so GIVES HC7ILTU UND STRENGTH TO THE WHOLE BODY.
