In speaking
of
the cold he says:
"The midnight sun? Ah, yes! When

wave of purple light. That rigid land
scape seem to wake out of its drowsy
torpor, the streams flow again.

portable as is supposed. We passed from
a heated cabin at 30 degrees above zero to
47 degrees below zero in the .open air
without inconvenience. A much higher
degree of cold becomes, however insufler
ablo if there is wind. At 15 degrees
below zero a steam, as if from a boiling
kettle, rises from the water. At once
frozen by the wind, it falls into a fine
powder. This phenomenon is called ic
smoke. At 40 degrees the 'snow and hu
man bodies also smoke, which smoke
chanees at once into millions of tiny par

and make a light, continuoMs noise, like
the rustle of "stiff silk. At this tempera

opens and vomits smoking wafer.—
Knives break in cutting butte. Cigars go,

are covered with a crust of ice, which
must be carefully removed before one can
