The blubiwi'-scems'to acquire tu crlamt!
One of the scientific results of Stcfansson's explorations in the
"livable Arctic" was establishment of the fact that it is quite
possible to live in health upon an exclusive diet of blubber, ,
ihtcyfc flavor: Very? ;
agreeable, according to this intrepid investigator! After livings
upon it for some time the cravlh-'? cMaid diei9s1i:
plctely away, j To this astonishing simplicity may all yot$ tastes'
be reduced. But it would be retrogression of a most serious ,;
sort for humanity to" revert to such simplicity. ;
In the Arctic, where Eskimos live in a vast wasteland, there
is no progress. Progress depends upon ideas fresh impulses
the stimulus of changing desires. Our modern progress has
been stimulated to. the greatest decree by means of advertise
ments. . Daily advertisements awake new desires; and desires,
capable of fulfilment, tend to diversify life, enrich it, and add
considerably to its joyousness.
