THE EXPLORER'S NEED
OF PATIENCE.
The explorer needs an inex
haustible store f patience when
he is sledging. Frequently,
when we have been sledging, a
blizzard has sprung up and put
a stop to our journey; day after
day we have had to lie in our lit
tle tent, waiting for the wind to
Cro down. Thai the true char
acters of the men in the parly
c 'ine ' 'lit : f' r u e lie there in
cold, wet, hall -frozen sleeping
bags with nothing to read, and
more important still, with little
to cat. And all the time our
precious and scanty food supply
i growing smaller; every day
pa-ed in the tent means twcti
foiir Imurs' K-ss chance of reach-
ing our goal. 1 can conceive of
no greater test for patience than j
that. 1 believe that most polar i
, !
explorers arhievc peneer
tience; for impatience certainly
means disaster, and probably
death. It i dangerous to be im
patient with nature. Sir F.rn

Companion.

: CASE OF BETTY ROSS :
By JULIA GOUGH.
Young Gilmore tore the program
into bits and cast them into the
grate-
"Why did you do that?' asked Ruth.
"I always keep my programs to re- i
mind me of good times."

"Why, what do you mean, Hilly?"
"Interest! That's putting it mildly,
They are fairly ignited with curiosity
about my affairs. I never leave
tho nouse on an ev,nin8 but one
or.both f aak n, whT?h Vm,

sometimes marvel at their persistency
m lhe face of wnat might be called
inglorious defeat, for I never give
them the least satisfaction."
"I think that's perfectly horrid of
you. I should expect you to tell me
something about your affairs If you
were my Drotner.
"I don't aspire to that honor. There
is another position that I prefer to"
"What do you tell your sisters
when they ask you whom you've been
with?"
"I invariably tell them Detty Ross."
"I should think they'd hate you."

-You ' telenhoned mv house this
morning, didn't you?"
"Yes, I wished to tell you that we
ought to start early for tho concert,
Iow did you know it was I?"
"My sister Rose said that tho Detty
Robs with tho sweet voice had asked
for me, bo, of course, I knew it was
you. Besides, there aren't many girls
who have ine on their telephone call
ing list."
"Well," pouted Ruth, "I don't phone
you very often never unless it's
something really important."
"I know you don't hardly once ln
a blue moon. Put, just the same, my
sisters have learned your voice. They
know your writing, too." Gilmore
chuckled. "Orace says ls a good
thing I'm an architect or I wouldn't
able to decipher your Qothio hand."
"I don't puzzle ou very frequently
with specimens of my chlrography."
"Not half often enough. I wish you'd
try me with a nice little 'Yes.' I
venture to Bay that I could read it,
without half trying."
"Silly!"
"Do you know, I bfslleve you and my
6lstrrs would agree perfectly."
"What makes you think so?"
"Because, like you, they're always
calling mo silly."
"Pooh!"
"Well, lant evening, for instance,
when I got homo to dinner Rose and
Craco atskod mo in an excited duet,
'Whom were you walking with on
Michigan avenuo today?' I inquired
how they knew I was walking with
anybody, and they said that a cousin
of ours who takes a remarkable in
terest in me, too had telephoned
them that &ho had Been mo walking
with a girl at noon. My companion
was described to them as wearing a
blue silk ratine, whatever that may
be, with Bulgarian trimmings. I asked
tno griH if thty were absolutely sure
about tho Bulgarian trimmings, and

thought a moment and men said l be
lieved it must have been Betty Ross.
They both exclaimed that I was per
fectly silly."
"And so you were," agreed Ruth as
she gazed at tho gay Bulgarian collar
and cuffs of tho new spring Jacket Bho
had thrown off when they came in
from the concert. "I don't see, Billy,
why you don't tell them the truth."
"If you'd let me know where I stand
with Betty Ross, I'd be only too glad
to tell them," declared young Gilmore,
fervently. "It's up to you."
She Favored the Queen.
Two sisters while visiting Ireland
in Victoria's time got Into conversa
tion one day with a tenant of their
hostess. One of the girls, who was
quite stout, asked the old woman if
she would have known them for sis
ters. "Well," waa the answer, "ye look
alike, but yer sister's slender, while
you, miss well, you favor the quane."
Explanation.
"Mamma, I know what makes that,"
said small Sadie, who was watching
the lightning flashes during a summer
shower.
"What, dear?"
"The angels are scratching matches
on the clouds," was the reply.

The above letter should convince you more
than anything we could say in behalf of
Muyr's Wonderful Momneli Keineily. Suf
ferers should try one dose of this Remedy
one dose should convince them that they can
be restored to health. Nearly all Stomach
Ailments are caused by the clogging of the
intestinal tract with mucoid and catarrhal ac
cretions allowing poisonous fluids into the
Stomach and otherwise deranging the digestive
system. Muyr's Wonderful Ntmniirh Remedy
painlessly removes these accretions without a
surgical operation and puts an end to Colic
