The American Commander Wilkes, return ing from the far south in 1841, assert, ed the existence of a vast south Polar continent, .and described his voyage of 1500 miles In sight of the coast. Ross' however, returning soon after, dis credited Wilkes conclusions, saying that the land seen by Wilkes was merely a great wall of Ice. The world has been In doubt which to believe. That Hoss was wrong and Wilkes right is very evident from the report of Ctptaln Scott of the American Ant arctic expedition of 1SO1-04. Cap tain Scott shows that the mass of ice seen by Ross is in reality an extensive glacier resting on land and covering" the land like the ice cap of Greenland. The glacier Is about TOO miles wide, and reaches the sea through a plain lying between Victoria Land and Ed ward VII Land.

In spawning season the water is full of these eggs, and when the "milt., and the "spawn come in contact and the water is at the right temperature, life is Imparted to the microscopic egg and it drops to the boltcm, where, if it succeeds In grasp ing hold of something such as another oyster or shell or rock, or anything to hang to, the tiny creature begins to form Its shell and in a few weeks be. comes visible to the eye. The oyster farmers are harvesting the crop at present. While the great er portion of the United States is un der snow and In the grasp of winter, our oyster farmers ar busy harvesting their crops, which require no fertilizer, food or fencing and costs only for the seed, the sowing and the harvesting and which pays a good dividend on the investment. From 12,000 to 15,000 hands are engaged in the oyster busi ness in eastern Virginia. It is an odd sort of farming, and the oyster farm ers in winter become corn farmers In summer.

SABOUvAUD of the PASTEUR INSTIIUTE. This experiment proves that dandruff is a contagious disease due to the presence of a microbic growth In the sebaceous glands of the scalp. It also proves that unless the formation of dandruff Is stopped by destroying the germs It will lead to falling hair and incurable baldness. Prof. Unna, Europe's noted dermatologist (ask your doctor about him) was the first to discover the microbic nature of dandruff and baldness. His discovery was later verified by Dr. Sabouraud. at the Pasteur Institute, Paris, France. The doctor inoculated a rabbit with human dandruff germs and in due time the rabbit began to lose its fur. "In between Ave and six, weeks," sa'ys the official report of the Pasteur Institute, "the rabbit was completely denuded, In fact. It had become entirely bald." w!fc1 f '...Ttf v3?

It Is said that, dur. lug his sojourn In Rome peasants would bring him old coins, and that he would decipher the names of the dif ferent emperors engraved upon them. Petrarch presented his collection to the emperor Charles IV, the first of the many Kings addicted to the study of ancient coins. In the next century King Alfonso V of Aragon (M42-1458) used to carry about with him on his Journeys from Spain to his kingdom of Naples and Sicily his fine collection of Greek and Roman coins, encased In on ivory cabinet, and he often said that the sight of those coins acted up on him as a iowerful Incentive to Imi tate the virtues of those whose names they bore. The Kmperor Maximilian laid the foundation at Vienna of the Imperial numismatic collection still carried there. This study had pe culiar attractions for French Kings also. Francis I, Henry II and Charles IX owned fine collections, to which Catherine de Medlcls (1633) contrl. buted. BARRELS MADE TO ORDER New Shop, COR. nth and DUANE STREETS. AIL WORK GUARANTEED. M. O.
