vice with one swoop. Of course this was asking the impos‘sible, but we cite the case to show how cranky and unreasonable-some people can be.
A great many people are as ipteuipereie in their actions
and language as others are in their habits. “
There was a time, not many. years ago, that a man to be
“popular and successful.in business and political circles must
be a boon companion of John Barleycorn. Many of our
leading statesmen, politicians, lawyers and even newspaper
men had a well Jeet Ry i‘whisky” blossom on their _

wrought and in a comparatively short time, It did not require a spasmodic upheaval to bring about this reform. Such
_outbursts are ill-advised and often do more harm than good.
The demands of advanced civilization are working wonders;
a new moral code is gradually coming into effect, as a result
~—-of -which indiscretions that-were formerly winked at-are: ‘HOW
frowned upon.
fessional, political or-social life soon finds out that he must
conform to the-rules of this codé if he would succeed in life.
Look at the sweeping orders that are being issued from time
to time by the great railroad companies, manufacturing concerns and banking institutions, to their employes and clerks,
which orders are to the effect that they must not dfink during business hours or at all, and. must pay their just debts. .
One company after another are following this plan in the
employing of young men until within a few years several
hundred thousand men will be included in the list. These
great commercial bodies are the most powerful allies the
church have in their reformation work.
A man does net have to be a sage or a philosopher to
see the work of this strong undercurrent. It is slow, but

THE SOUTH POLE EXPEDITION
FTER many years of comparativ: neglect the Antarctic region is again exciting the interest of éxplorers,
and recent discoveries make it probable, ‘that the
south pole will be reached long before the north pole
The voyage of the steamer Frahm, both with Nansen and
since his famous trip, the journeys of Peary and others in
remote and in recent times, all show the extreme difficulty of
penetrating the extreme orth. These explorers agree in believing that the pole will ultimately be reached, but the experience of each is that the difficulties rapidly increase as
they push northward.
At the south pole the conditions are differentThe
latest news from that region sent back from the British exploring steamer Discovery, which has already spent a year in
the work and will spend another, gives a very encouraging
account of the successes achieved and makes it seem proba=
ble that when the expedition is next heard from even more
sensational reports will be made.
The Antarctic-regions prove less formidable than expected and much less formidable than those of the extreme
north. The Discovery wintered four hundred miles farther
south than any of “its predecessors and sled expeditions succeeded in reaching a point two degrees farther south than any
of its predecessors and sled expeditions succeeded in reach.
ng a point two degrees farther south than any previous explorers. This point, 80 degrees iand 17 minutes, is not as
near the pole as explorers have reached in the Arctic regions,
but the conditions found were so favorable that the trip might
have been continued much farther without any great hardship had the explorers been properly prepared. At the southernmost point reached, a high tableland was found extending
westward as far as the eye conld see, while southward mountains 10,000 to 12,000 feet high stretched so far to the-south
that it is considered probable that land extends all the wey
to the pole. With-the experience gained in the first year’s
. ‘work it will not be surprising if when next heard from the
. will have succeeded in reaching the southernmost
point ad the earth,
