EACIIEII THE SOUTII POLE
Cable From Captain Amundsen Says . He
Attained the Goal December 1411.
A despatch ,from London says:
iCaptain Roald Amundsen has dis-
'covered the South Pole, Definite
news has been received in Lone:en
via Christiania, that he reached the.
Pole between the loth and 17th of
December. December "14 to 17"
is taken to mean by experts that
-when he reached the, geographical
Pole Amundsen waited three days,
taking noon observations so as to
accurately determine his position
and exclude uncertainty—that is to
say, to establish proofs that would
Are incontrovertible.
The London Chronicle` adds :
England will wait most anxiously
for news of the •Scott expedition.
'Though robbed of its crowning
;glory, geography .and science will
undoubtedly profit from it. Cape
tain Amundsen's expedition, which
has pow ended successfully, was
originally.planned for the conquest
of the north pole, 'bu't hearing the
news which Peary brought back,
Amundsen showed his resource and
promptness of decision by .at once
steaming south to the region which
still offered a similar prize. He has
won that prize. To England the
glory of discovery neither the north
nor the south pole has fallen, but
in the story of the exploration of the
great ice, continents this country
played a splendid part, and we can
join heartily with the whole world
to -day in offering to the conqueror
and to Norway a meed of praise.
which is so well deserved. The
prize has been finely won. It has
also been grandly lost."

Mrs. Ovila 'L' amarre, Malviva,

Own Tablets an excellent medicine
and would not use any other for
my little one. I think all mothers
should keep • the tablets in the
house." Thousands of other mo-
thers have the same praise for the
tablets. They are absolutely safe
—being guaranteed by a govern-
ment analyst to contain no opiate
or other harmful drug. They
break up colds, expel worms, cure
constipation and indigestion, in
fact they are good for all the minor
ills of little ones. The tablets are
sold by medicine dealer's or by mail
at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Wil-
