Take the case of the heroic mis- sionary ezploirer, David LlTingstone, for ln«tantie. He Tanished in tho uar knows intertor of Africa, and whea mor9 -than six years had elapsed wltli- oufltews of him, he was mourned as dead. Yet after all that time SUnley found him allre and well at U}ljl, on Lake Tanganyika, which is almost lu the centre of the co«ntry. A little while later Stanley himself disappeared, together with three other white men and 363 natlye porters. The expedition set out from the east ooasi of Africa in November, 1874, and when nearly three years had elapsed ^without tidings, the worst y as feared But on August 4, 1877, Stanley turn- ed up unezt>eotedIy at Boma, on the west coast, having maovhed by devi- j OU9 ways right across the continent â€" | a loumey of over 7,000 miles â€" through ' territory the major portion of which ' had never before been visited by ! white men. I The terrible Journey had cost the ' lives of his three European companl- j ons, an^ of his 353 porters only 115 had survived. Captured by Savages. .A. few years ago a native, bearing a letter, arrived at a settlement near the mouth of the Fly River in New Guinea, the huge island north of Aus- tralia. To everybody's 'amazement the let- ter was found to have been written by a Danish ezplorer named Peterson who, four years previously, had start- ed with three companions to explore the unknown interior of the island, and had long been given up for dead. They had, it appeared, been cap- ed lost In the frozen vastee of North ern Canada. Tet he ttMmed up alive and well after disappeartng for seven months, and then again for eWyen months. When, however, he disappeared a third time, and in a bUzzard, wblle guiding an expedition along the shorea of the Polar Sea, ererybody thought it was all 0Te4- with him. An Eskimo Chief. Nearly six years elapsed. Then aa inspector ot what was at that time the North-Weet Mounted Poillce, in the course of a Journey of 1,800 miles across the frosen land which stretches along the coast from Hudson Bay to Alaska, came upon a tribe of Eskimo who acknowledged- a white man as their chief. The white m-an was none other than Lucky Moor*. He had, he explained, been found by an Eskimo hunter when on the point of death from cold and starvation, and had remained with the tribe ever since, not daring to run the risk of reaching the settlements, on account of one of his feet having been ampu- tated owing to frost-bite. The stirring story of Arctic explora- tion abounds with similar incidents. The Canadian explorer, Stefansson. and two companions, were given up for dead when their ship was crashed- by the ice and sunk. Two years later they were found in Banlts Land, a large island in the Arc- tic Ocean. They had subsisted main- ly on seal meat. donalds. simply Cuanon.

Ooldsmlth, well-known radio eng^ineer. The rules themselves are aa follows: 1.

The villain Is partly good and the â- o is partly bad. â€" The story does not end with the redding scene. , 'â- â€¢ Makes a Difference. "I don't know what it is, doctor," said the invalid, "but I feel I shall never puU through." "Nonsein&e. nonsense," answered the doctor. "Why. your case is absolute- ly the same as an illness I had years ago. yet look at me- .strong and hearty as ever." "Yes." was the reply, in a very hope- le«<i voice, "but 1 expect you hod a good doctor." l-k , * Perfect Protection With Every Roll Every roll of Prince Ed- ward Brand Fox Netting opens out as a 160 foot long wall of perfect pro- tection for your foxes.

There have been very few poets who so delicately could touch the pathetic striii:;s of the harp of poesy as Eugene FieM. He certainly wrote mainly for children, but there is a depth and sin- cerity about these things which make them very acceptable to their elders. 1 <ince knew all the birds that came .And nested in our orchard trees; For every flower I had a name. My friends were woodchucks, toads, and bees. 1 knew where thrived in yonder glen What plants would soothe a stone- bruised toe: Oh. I was very learned then; But that was very long ago. I knew a spot upon the hiil Where checker-berries could be found : I knew the rushes near the mill Where pickerel lay that weighed a pound. I knew the wood (the very tree) Where lived the poaching, saucy crow. And all the woods and crows knew me; But that was very long ago. I know it's folly to complain Of whatsoe'er the fates decree; Yet, were not wishes all in vain. I tell you what my wish should be: I'd wish to be a boy again, Back with the friends I used know ; For I was. oh. so happy than; But that was very long ago! Advent of Autumn. When fall's first early frosts subdue the ground. And paint with artist's fingers all the trees; '"~ Unfurl bright golden banners to the breeze; And scatter leaves o'er every vale and mound ; Tho goldenrod bedecks the byway* 'round ; A stray, brown bee roves o'er its yst low seas; Then silence falls In magic mysteries. As Simimer'a skies in Autumn's haie are drowned. And 'neath the murky mirage o'er the river. The wildling asters in profusion grow; The yellow catkins nod brown heads and quiver. Just as they did this time a year ago. There stirs a breeze; the aspens dance and shiver; The buttonwoods and maples murmur low. Roee E. de Ribcowsky. * English Girls Tune Pianos. WORK WORN PEOPLE' Find New Health by Improving Their Blood. If you feel run down, it means that yonr blood is thin and watery, that your vitality is low. You do not sleep well and are tired whon you rise in the morning. You find no pleasure in your meals and are listless and dispirited a* your work. You have no energy to enjoy yourself. Thousands of men are run down by anxieties of work. Thousands of wo- slonal disobliging storm interferes with your Summer radio evening. â€" â€" } There are many Una concerts coming. You can't expect to find a pearl in every oyster, nor to receive a record- breaking concert every night. 3. If you want louder signals, lue a larger aerial, more tubes, higher plate voltage, more sensitive loud speakers and more careful tickler and receiver adjustment. 4. A pleasant signal filling a mod- erate size room should be enough to give satisfaction. Musically, such a signal Is ideal. It is not worth while producing signals which deafen the neighbors. It Is wasteful to insist on tremendous signals which are general- ly less pleasant than moderate sig- nals, particularly during the Summer. 5.

He is working hard for you and it is no- body's fault that you are so close to him that you are bound to hear him. Broadcast stations have to be closer to some people than to others. 6. In selecting your evening's pro- gram try for the higher powered broad- casting stations. They were designed to give better Summertime service, and you will, generally find that they do. 7. A little patience in learning to handle your receiver yields rich re- turns in r '.tisf action from fine signals. Remember, that "Rome wasn't built In a day," and keep on getting more and more failiar with your set and how it works. 8. It is a good idea to road the radio column of a newspaper or a good radio magazine or two. It heilps you to know how your set works and keeps you up- to-date in radio. Information of this sort Is an aid In getting the concerts loud and clear. 9. Ask your music dealer for advice; he can probably tell you what you want to know, and will be glad to do so. The manufacturer of your set is also willing to heJp .vou get the desired resu'.ts from its use. 10. Do not throw away the direction sheets or booklet that came with your set and with the tubes. Read all such material carefully now aud then, and fol'.ow the suggestions which are given. The dircL'tion sheets answer moflt of the questions which have been puzzling you and preventing you from getting the best out of your set.
