Member of American Geographical Society. 190U: Copyright: By New York Times. New York. The foregoing dispatch, though condensed, tells clearly the leading facts in the story, not only of Peary's journey to the north pole, but also of a remarkably fast sledge trip over the ice of the open polar sea. The dispatch says that the Roosevelt passed the winter of at Cape Sheridan, on the coast of Grant Land The vessel had threaded the comparatively narrow channels, several hundreds of miles in length, leading from Cape Sabine to the Arctic ocean. Conditions Were Favorable. This journey is apt to be difficult and sometimes impossible, but. the conditions were evidently favorable.

On his expedition of 1905-0he tried hard to force the Roosevelt a good distance to the west of Cape Sheridan, but the ice baffled him. For one reason or another on the edge of the arctic winter last year he did not or could not take his vessel along the northern coast of Grant Land to the west of Cape Sheridan, and so it spent last, winter not so far from its old berth in the ice in the winter ol 6 1905-6- . The sledge expedition left the Roose velt on February 15, while it was still practically dark in that latitude. The sun scarcely begins to peer above the hills for a few minutes a day. even several hundred miles to the south ol the coast where the Roosevelt was wintering. It comes into view a little later in that more northern latitude and the party made slow time to the west as it felt its way along. Coast Difficult to Travel. The northern Grant Land coast is likely to be exceedingly difficult to tra verse, especially in the early spring, on account of tbe mas.-e- s of sea ice that have been pressed on the shore or broken into great blocks and stranded along the sea edge. It is no wonder that it took the party 15 days to travel westward as fas as Cape Columbia. It is likely, however, that Commander Peary succeeded, before winter set in, in cache ing supplies to the westward so as to accelerate a little the westward movement of the sledge party before it struck out northward over the sea. Peary's summary seems to show-thahe was a little over 35 days on the journey from the land to the north pole. In this time he was delayed about 14 days by $ater leads, leaving a little more than three weeks for the actual sledging work. We may get a good idea of the average rate of travel by taking the first sea and the north pole records. He passed the British record on March t and reached the pole on April 6. The distance between then is 460 statute miles, and the time in making the journey was 34 days, in cluding the time of detention by water leads. This is an average of little loss than 12 miles a day, which is the best record ever attained for long rout)- sledging on the open polar sea. - Eskimos of the Polar Regions. rived Cape Sheridan, at Grant Land. wintered at Cai e Shell September dan.

A superintendent of public schools In North Carolina says: "My mother since her early childhood, was an inveterate coffee drinker and had been troubled with her heart for a number of years, and complained of I hat 'weak all over' feeling and sick stomach. "Some time ago I was making an official visit to a distant part of the f country and took dinner with one of the merchants of the place. I noticed a somewhat peculiar flavor of the coffee, and asked him concerning it. He replied that It was Postum. "1 was so pleased with It. that after the meal was over, I bought a package t" carry home with me, and had wife prepare pome for the next meal. The whole family liked It so well, that we discontinued coffee and used Postum entirely. "I had really been at times very anxious Concerning my mother's condition, but we noticed that after using "oetum for a short time, she felt so much better than she did prior to Its use. and had little trouble with her heart and no Hick stomach: that the headaches were not so frequent, and her general condition much Improved. This continued until she was as well and hearty ns the rest of us.

I was inspecting the removal of noxious weeds from the edge of a river and was constantly in the dust from the weeds. At night I cleansed my limbs but felt a prickly sensation. I paid no attention to it for two years but I noticed a scum on my legs like fish scales. I did not attend to it until it came to be too itchy and sore and began getting two running sores. My ankles were all sore and scabby and I could not wear shoes. I had to use carpet and felt slippers for weeks. I got a cake of the Cuticura Soap and some Cuticura Ointment. In less than ten days I could put on my boots and in less than three weeks I was free from the confounded itching. Capt. George P.

Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound: If any woman who is suffering with any ailment peculiar to her sex will ask her neighbors this question, she will be surprised at the result. There is hardly a community in this country where women cannot be found who have been restored to health by this famous old remedy, made exclusively from a simple formula of roots and herbs. During the past 30 years we have published thousands of letters from these grateful women who have been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and never in all that time have we published, a testimonial without the writer's special permission. Never have we knowingly published a testimonial that was not truthful and genuine. Here is one just received a few days ago. If anyone doubts that this is a true and honest statement of a woman's experience with Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound write and ask her. Houston, Texas. " When I first began takiiifr Lydia T. Pinkham's Wfrotablo Compound I was a total wreck. 1 bad been sick for three years with female troubles, chronic dyspepsia, and a liver trouble. I had tried several doctor's medicines, hut nothing did me any ood. "For three years I lived on medicines and though I would never get well, when I read an advertismont of Lydia K. J'ink- - ham's vegetable Compound, and was advised to try it. "My husband got ine one bottle of the Compound, and it did me so much good I continued its use. I am now a well woman and enjoy the best of health. "I advise all women suffering from such troubles to give Lydia K. I'inkbnni's Vegetablo Compound a trial. They won't regret it, for it will surely euro you." Mrs. Bessie L, Hicks, 8M Cleveland St., Houston. Any woman who is sick and suffering is foolish surely not to give such a medicine as this a trial.
