DISCOVERY OF POLE
ENDS QUEST OF AGES
Record of Arctic Explorations Runs
Back for Centuries and Is Recital
of Dire Adventure and
Tragedies
An American, Dr. Kiederlek A. 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-

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

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.

cntoiod by Walter Wellinon la 1894. Ho

lie started, however, a year later, but
was forced to halt. Aguln last month
he started, but the accident to his bal
loon forced him again to relinquish tho
project. Ho announced then that ho
would try again.
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. Tho Inst seen of tho bal

has been heard of it nor has a trace

Care In Preparing Food.
In recent years scientists have
proved that tho value of food is mens

laws that hnvo over been known.
One food that has stood out proml
nontly ns a perfectly clean and pure
food nnd which was as puro before
tho enactment of these laws as It
could possibly bo Is Quaker Oats;
conceded by tho experts to be the Ideal
food for making Btrength of muscle
and brain. Tho best and cheapest ot
nil foods. Tho Quaker Oats Company
Is tho only manufacturer of oatmeal
that has satisfactory solved tho prob

This year the West looks more

No Man is Stronger
Than His Stomach
A utronfj man is (.troiifl all over. 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.
