Again at 84:36 in Grant Land he came across the open lead and for six days was unable to cross. When the young Ice formed he made dash to cross the lead. Most of the sledges made the passage when a gale sprang up, breaking up the thin Ice, with most of the provisions still on the south side. There was nothing to do but push on to the north. At 85:12 a storm of snow held them up Inactive in camp for six days. Meanwhile, they steadily steadi-ly drifted some 70 miles southward. On April 21 they had reached 87:6, a new farthest north; realizing the foolhardiness of further advance, Peary faced south for the return re-turn to camp. His final expedition came in 1908. Accompanied Accom-panied by 11 scientists, Ice experts and Matt Henson, his faithful servant, he returned to the base on Grant Land. On March 1, with a great Ice army of 6 men 17 Eskimos, 133 dogs and 19 sledges, ln two divisions under himself and Captain Bartlett, he started straight out over the ice. They made good speed to the north until the opening of the spring season began to make the pack disintegrate. As men became exhausted or incapacitated from frost, Peary sent them back. As provisions became lower, more of the party were sent back, ln order to enable those remaining to continue. By March 22, with less than 140 miles between him and the pole, Peary was alone with his negro, Henson, Hen-son, and four Eskimos. In forced marches, feeding feed-ing full rations and pushing forward as rapidly as possible, he found himself on the morning of April 6 at 89 :57 less than three miles from his goal. A few hours later he was at the point where It was south no matter where he looked.

(0 by W asters NtwipiP VmliM.) BAD-TEMPERED MAN CALLED TO ACCOUNT English Writer Make Lucid Lu-cid Comments. It Is common knowledge that when people lost their temper they feel that other people are to blame. Those possessed of bad tempers, ln consequence, tend to lead lonely lives and may even be forced to accept the Ignominious Idea that their outbursts out-bursts are due to their brains or livers. But experience has shown that the relief to be obtained by blaming one's own bodily organs Is not comparable with that which proceeds pro-ceeds from blaming one's neighbor. A man may not be responsible for the behavior of his liver, but If he blames It the suspicion tends to lie against him that, ln days rast, he failed ln the duty of abstemiousness. It Is good news, therefore, tbot a case has been made out for the theory that one Inherits bad temper from one's ancestors. The evidence, If not perhaps conclusive, Is good enough to satisfy an angry man. It is set forth ln the King's College Hospital Gazette, but derives from Francis Galton. He found that in 25 families in which both parents were bad-tempered the number of good-tempered children was only 4 per cent, while really bad-tempered children chil-dren amounted to 62 per cent In the case of families where both par ents were good-tempered, on the contrary, con-trary, only 80 per cent of the children chil-dren were really good-tempered. All the others, except 10 per cent who were bad-tempered, showed no special spe-cial tendency either way. Doctor Still, who contributes the article, points out that a child who lives with bad-tempered parents is handicapped from the beginning, and that no doubt is true; but such a child has before It an awful example which might well tend to direct Its mind into gentler ways. That its mind Is not often directed thus is wit ness of the strength of heredity. It Is comforting to find that the Lancet endorses the case against an cestors so far as to offer them as a substitute for wayward or backsliding backslid-ing organs, and that, further, even the faults of such organs may be laid at the door of heredity. This brings the bad tempered man back at once into association with his fellows. fel-lows. When his face reddens toward explosion his children or his friends will feel no longer creeping over them that uneasy suspicion of their guilt which before caused them to flee from his presence. Soon they will say comfortably to themselves, he will be giving his grandfather's mem ory a bit of his mind. Indeed, the bad-tempered man is likely to become an object of the sympathy which goes out to the descendants de-scendants of sheep-stealers and highway high-way men. doctor Still has much to an lays it down that 'we have all our flash-point of anger or irritation, but In some the flash-point of irrita tion is lower than the average." This is no doubt true, but, as the Lancet Justly observes, "most of us have encountered men who were cheerful cheer-ful while their affairs were ln good taln, but who became irritable and whining in the face of disaster ; the cantankerous wife of an unsuccessful unsuc-cessful husband may be transformed Into a delightful person by the re moval of financial anxiety." Thus the blame Is spread evenly between ancestors and stockbrokers. Upon backs jso broad and sturdy it may reasonably and profitably be left-London left-London Times.
