'1lllorn, adicu ADR1F'1' ON IO0. The scene of te alventure ,hat I stall relate is in .North, H udson's btty,. and the time" was' .aate mn February, 1879. I had bon among the natives of this region of the great bay-the lwillik Eskimo-since the fall before getting ready for a sledge journey to I'in Wtii,t't4s Land, in the Arctic ocean, which. these natives had said 'cotuld best be started In the early 4pt lug. and I had therefore set the first week in April as about the t"kme of our departnre. One of the most necessary articles of supply for such a sledge journey was oil to cook our food, by the native method, and give us light at night4 and the seal and walrus in the bay were the sources on whic we depended for this mate rial. The contemplated sledge trip was to be an overland one, and until we stood on the shores of the Arctic sea, probably a'tipth or two after starting, no oil producing ani'nal could be met, and we therefore urged our hired Es ki:.o to be prompt in getting us a good supply. Then there came in a super. t ha e cai no e&ach!L tea :; to eat their flesh until the reindger meat of the fall hunting'season had been dis posed of, and, as our venison supply was large this particular autumn, it was well along in January before the change was made. ' This was followed by one of those hyperborean hurricafes whose predominating feature was con sistency, and after its three weeks of boreal blowing was over, and we were nearly starved in our ice palaces, we crawled out and stared the situation in the face that it was hardly two months until our.departure, with no no oil on hand and little likelihood of being able to purchase any of the natives in their depleted condition. My own natives therefore went to work with a will to supply the deficiency, working early and late and taking many risks on the treacherous ide that they otherwise would not have done. It was in taking one too many of these risks that the mteri for my story was furmshed me. lkquecsik and Nannock (the Elbow and the Polar hoar) were two as faith ful ignd trustworthy walrus hunters as were to be found in the whole Iwillik tribe of Eskimo, and this sayIng was no small compliment In Its line, for the name Iwillik means walrus eating Es kirno, from the large number of these animals killed by this tribe, and which really formed their chief supply of food. Ikqueesik was in fact over anxious to see that everyt;.ing in general and the walrus oil in particuila,r'would be ready for the trip on time, for though an Iwuibk by adoption since lhe was a boy, ho was by tirth a Netschilluk, a band that lived on the Polar sea, where we would probably visit, and lie showed a true patriotic desire to visit his native By the 20th or 25th of February it was quite evident that Ikqueesik's un - usual energy would be properly rewarded if the weather only remained good, but -this was something in which n~o reli ance could be placed whatever, al though my Netschilluk ,walrus hunter openly avowed that good weather or bad weather he was going to ede that, as far as oil waB concerned, we should have no delay in starting. sure enough, a storm 'came tepring down from'the nortewest'that looked as if it had come tostay for a while; and as good as his word, Ikqueeslk, with Nannook and a 14 or -15-year-old brother of the former- Ahwanak by nam~e--sallied out in the fierce bliast to tackle any walrus that might be found out enjoying such weather. Although during these fhree 'off shore winds, the walruses 'generally P0 sailhng out to sea on the cakes of Ice that break off from thieedge of the shore ice, Our two hunt ers were lucky in finding an old one that hadi found it; convenient to stay at bomne, and as part f>a3 ment for their oxposure in such fearfuu weather they found'it e 4y to dispatoh the brute by takibg4 vantage of the din ti1e, wind 1 t .

An inspeption revealed the craft to be about 400 yards long over all, about 200 yards' beam, with armor six to eight fetrtihlek, carryinp two guns with a crew of three, and provisioned for two' or, three weeki with one walrus weighing nearly a ton, I should have added that a sledge and 8 or 4 dogs were curled up abaft the main batch, the former of which mighi do for fuel and the latter for food ii case of an emergency or too long- a cruise. At first the trip was not a very severe one as longsas they. could feel the pro tectioll of the coast, but the "fUrthei away tljy got the higher the wave* were swelling, and in the course of twc or three hours the surf was dashing over the weather side and flying in One spray and froth across, the little. cold weather cruisers and making thingr uncomfortable generally. There was some compacted sliow'un 1tefO'ad 6rf/ a lne ,ertttgtrl mira that had once marked the place df the reef from which the storm bad tori the great floe, and here- our three Eskimos busied themselves in building a comfortable igloo or snow house, which would protect them from the weather, and two smaller ones were made alongside, one to store the meat to keep it from the hungry dogs and the other to protect the dogs them selves. It is very seldom that these people ever build such snow. kenneli 'for' their dogs, however cold or storm. the weather, but now the flying spray freezing on their*fur and the want of something to do to distract their atten tion from theit perilous, situation, de termined them to build a snow house for these animals. Their war vessel seemed to be of the ram order, and of the most beliger ent closs, too, for it went crashing fore and aft into every other ship of its owil kind, without regard to its size, and the Eskimo crew -were often regaled witn a view of a boreal battle in which' missiles of ice, a score of times greater than Krupp ever dreamed of, were hurled backwatid and forward by the contending floes as they came crashing together. The snow hut built and everything being housed, they had- time to look their situation fairly in the face, and it was not a very inviting one. The danger of life, it is true, was not ai gresit as less experienced persons might infer from such a situation, and thuese great ice fields, tough as oak, in the depth of an Arctic winter. very sel. dom went to pieces, and when they did it was because two greater lloes would crush them between .them, and on'tc the surviving fields the men would es. cape. But if the storm continued long they might get so far away that the lighter southern winds would nevei waft them back, or at least before the summer was on them and the ice be. came so rotten that it was likely to g< to' plecos in a storm from the mere mo tion of .the waves and be reduced t< suchi small cakes thait each and all were constantly overturning, so thai life would be as unsare as that of a bu~ on a lot of floating sawdust in. a rapid, Again, their ship might bringJinto foreijdn port from which, thougli safe, they could never return, or only aftei a long interval; for there was a casi arg'ng the Ywillik Eskimo, a mau wdom they had left that very morning, whio, some twenty years before, ha] been carried away by an ice floe aru landed three weeks later on the south, era shore of Southamptoni Island, anm from there had been a long, lonesom4 year and a half getting from the natives or that strange land back ,to his be, loved iwillik, where his frIends anm relatives had long sInce given him uj as having joined that great Eskim< mninorty. in t.healnd wherea th fourn taiQa tld 'pure seal ;ult an houses were bWtit of blocks ot reindeer and walrus meat.

By 2 o'clock p. m. darknessliad set in and they were at their wits' end to know what to do for a light althoughh they had all the walrus blUtbber needed from which to eit ke0ih l, but they were without itlat eQ of a lamp i n w hin h t o ' b t"n e k - h w - ever, ovei'come th by, asbioning one from the inch thick ide of the walrus, sewing it with sea!-31 n thongs cut frsm the dog hargess,/ while wicking was had by. uttin ljIp.Ikqueesik's woolen tobacco llag, wd atches were plentiful enough anLg all my hire ward the head of- the list. In a little while, therefore, a bright enough fire foV light was hid, though hardly strong enough to heat the house to.any extent, and they were sitting on the enow bed discussing the dismal prospects. For supper they had raw frozen walrus meat, but this was not so bad, as it was often the staple diet of their meals, and even at homo they could- only ex pect to supplement it with some hot soup and a piece of steamipg walrus flipper. The -principal wprry about their meat supply was quantity, not quality, and the uhances of renewing that supply when the present gave out; and this latter did not look po genera' ly-bad as the floating ice packs were known to contain more.seal and walrus than the solid shore ice, as they had often remarked when hunting on the latter. Should they go off their own little ialand of Ie, however, to hunt for an animal the drifting waters might .separate them from it so that they could niever return, and this pro bability would confine their hunting tours to a very limited area. So, take it all inali, however dark and dismal their otitlo.ok seemed.'these were many brlaaht possibilities breaking through the black clouds, and after the first depression was over they looked at things in a far more cheerful light. They went to sleep early to saYe their oil, curling up on the snow bed in their reindeer clothes -a not unusual circum stance, for they often stay out at night to hunt, building a small igloo to sleep in-the only change being to withdraw their arms from t,heir sleeves and fold them on their bare breasts, a common practice among these people when in a chilly, fireless snow houise or taking'a nap in their clothes. It was almost certain that they would not be missed the first night at the village snflicient to cause alarm, as nightly absences of hunters aret frequent when. watchinga& seal hble or when success ..ias 'taken them far away. Here they weke, then, sailing away in the dead of night with A lighlted ship that could carry thousauQds of tons of .freight, and this, too, In .the very midst. of an Arctip winter and despite the assertions'of many news. papers of the Atlantic seaboard that, jealous0t their (Iaiadign couisina and their prpqese 4lpdon baY'.h ute tc to England, have constantly agserten that 'it is only, .navigable four month or two during very favorable summers.

(lhe Evil Being Traditional and Deep Seated Retluiro 11Heroic Treat menut. The evil is deep seated anld has its-tap ,odt deep in the past. t is traditional. rhe oldet colleges if tly'y ;are blessed; ire also cursed' with traditions. And sollege traditions are easily born, and lie,bard. : These disorderly tendenoies tre not only inherited from the, past in his country, but from the. mother mountry also. The extent of. their sur vival there,may be seen in the basings, Ightings and midnight maraudings with which "Tom Brown at Rugby" ts verweigbed. They have survived, with additions, in Amdrican colleges. Miembers of advanced classes promptly' hstruct the younger el$s1es R what is ilways done, and what, therefore, they 4re bound to do. The newer men as piro to be as "smart" as their prede. eessors, and so they must have hazing, rushes, "bloody Monday," freshman beer, reqiprocal hornings, 'small ma raudings;.and- what not? The, effect of these foolish traditions at. one partion lar stage of the college -dourse, In the sudden but transient transformation of a considerable number of well minded and well mannered young men is some. thing as unfailing as it is surprising and otherwise unaccoutable. In other communities it is the ac. knowledged rule that the whole popula tion is banded together to detect . and punish wrongdoing. In college com munities the case is reversed; the com bination Is to prevent detection. It is seldom the case that one student 'will give information concerning another that might lead even to his reformation. And when it bebomes apparently a queption of penalty, not only will young men of no principle disregard the truth, but men of high principle will generally leave college sooner than aid in rectify ing the wrong. In one case, where 'It became alike necessopy' for the safe of father $id son th4t the father ahov know of a notorious habits of int - cation i which the son had fa he we way convinced ro . j%5itca ne.by'the fYcuityl ouu hemhi ihr# 4)ass. niatea that the statements ntruie It shord be said, however, that one' of these classmates after graduation, had the manhood to come to a college officer and day: 6I lied to Mr.--." . , In another instance, a case of assault upon a professor's'house, a whole class, including, with one, exception, all its bast men, were induced to agree before hand that they would not answer any question as to their own wherabouts al a given.time-though many of themr were quietly studying in their rooms lest the circle of inquiry should thus be narrowed toward the offenders; and they submitted, to ' suspension rathe: than answer the question. Illustrative facts of this kind might be accumalat. ed to any extent. But it is not neces sary. - Every collete man can' bear witness to the 'gbneral state. of the case. After young men have been fully an1 falily warned that-they will be hek amenable to the law, of the. land, thE application of the law is not to be with held. This remed j has somnetimes beer applhed with excellent effect. In one case the victim waited till his torment ors disclosed themselves and brough1 him"b5fore a magistrate. -One of then proved to be a son of the chief justicE of the -state, and .the settlementi .wau easy and lasting. In another collegE two young men, under arst for grosi violence, fled and never put in an ap pearance. again. In a third institution certain- collegE rioters, sons of 'wealthy parents, lay it 'the locku19 while their class was gradu ating. Theseo are hard iremedles, to thu .last degree undesirable, but the abuse are still' more undesirable, and if at: 'other educational influorices prove in, 'effe'ctual theti the law must be thu educator.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT. A mind quite vacant is a mind dis tressed. A passionate woman's love is always overshdaowed by her fear. People are never so fortunate, or so unfortunate, as they suppose themselves to be. While inan was Innocent he was like ly ignorant of nothing that imported im to know. You may take the greatest trouble, and by turning it around find joys on the other side. Blame is safer than praise. In gen eral, every evil to' which we do not suc cumb is a benefactor. Affection blinds the judgn.om,, and we can4ot.expeot an equitable award where the judge is made a party. Want of prudence is too frequently the want of virtue; nor is there on earth a more powerful advqpatp for vice than poverty. In all negotiations of difficulty, a man may not look to sow and reap at once, but-must prepare liusiness, and so ripen It by degrees. God himself. does not speak- prose, but communicates with us by hints, omens, inference and dark resemblances in objects lying all around us. No moral teaching, be. it ever so sound, no precepts, be- they ever so wise, will avail to counteract the powerful influence that emanates unconsciously from character and ex amplo. It was the policy of the good old gen tleman to make his children feel that home was the happiest place in the world; and 1 value this delicious home feeling as one of the choicest gifts a parent can bestow. Nature uveo vw. ev tame and sea$on some beauties of its own, and from morning to night, as from the cradle to the grave, is' but a succession of changes, so gentle and easy that we can scarcely mark, their progress. Hospitality, as a virtue. has always been both preached and practiced. As an art, it has been and is neglected. Men, and women are only begin ning to- ind out that in the wise exercise~of hospitality lie some of the pleaaantest possibilities of human exis ten. o keeps the heart always at full Sgtves rise to-oppression of the b in and senses. It confuses the wU le man. It robs . the -stomach of nervous ' poWbr, and, digestion being impaired, the failure of life be gins at once. Those- therefore who are born with this passion should give it up. Every man desires success, and the strength of his desire is shbwn in the earnestness of his efforts; the difference lies in the objects in which he desires to succeed. Earnestness is good, succgss is good; what we have to watch is thit we are-earnest in a worthy cause; then our succehe will be justly a matter of rejoicing. There is no event in life which does not carry its own lesson; and that lesson ought to be recognized by us a#, the best that we can learn at that . particu lar moment; Failure in any enterbride is just as much a fact as success in that same enterprise would hav9 been.. But it rests with each person to make every fact in his experience a factor in' his progress. - - It is when we have been unmistak ably wronged that we have an oppor. tunity to show a Cbristian spirit. s5o long as others treat us with fairness, with kindess, and with courtesy. It is not easy for us to show a spirit of for bearance, of charity, or of* comnmend able gentleness. Even a godless hea. then would not be likely to resepat an affront which he had not received. A Christian's best.opportunity of ehowing that he is a Cbristian is when jie Is n der some gross provocation .to bear himself in an un-Uhtistian manner. No one can ever be harmed 'so griev ously by wrong doing, as ' the wrong doer himself is thereby wronged.. .if we only could seethe harm which has come, by his wrong doing, to him who has wronged' us most grievously, we should so be moved with pity toward him that oue cry In his 'behalf would be, "]3ather, forgive him, -as freely psa I do." It is only our blindness to the injury which reatits to him who injures, another, that can malre uts unforgiving toward such a one in the light oe 'Qod's trdth concerning the consequences of evil to the evl-doer. Doing,right for the sake of being happy, Is quite a different thing from being happy because of doing iright. And yet how many there are whose highest -aim is, to be happy, or to make others hapipy, instead 'of doing right and hfelping othefs to do right. My husband will agree to that, be. cause hQ will go anything to make me happy," said a trustful.but.unthinking wife; as though that' fact was really to her husband's credit. Right Is never a wropa motive. ..eekidg happiness may, at any,time, be a questionebe mo tive. If we never had a twinge' of' bodily pn,we a ould be unable,to. sympa. thizeWith hos 'who aise in pain.
