In a time needing food economy many people are not
getting all the nourishment they might from their food.
It is not how much you eat, but how much you assim-

The addition of a small teaspoonful of Bovril
to the diet as a peptogenic before meals leads
to more thorough digestion and assimilation
and thus saves food, for you need less. •

and from SOU to 1,000 neles away

Allen, a trader and trapper, knows
much concerning the so al!'d blond
Eskimos, for be has had dealings with
them, These blonds are found on th:,
north shore of Victoria Island, in the
territory of Franklin, one of the most
northerly points ever reached by
white mon,
"With this etrango tribe thane is nu
trace of their origin to be hound
their speech, as they use the ,1:,111)
language, 5v0n to root words, as outer
Eskimos. They cut their parkas
swallow -tail fashion, the sante art an-
cient naval officers affected, and pre-
sent a strange appearance, both anon
and women, as the fashion in dross re-
lieves a great deal of the parka'a
utility as a cold -weather protector,
A Strange Blond Race.
"Captain Allen believes there are
about two hundred of these blonds on
he islands. He says they have brown
air and lack the pronounced cheek -
ones of Orientals. Some have blue
yes, Captain Allen told 018 while if
he men and women of this tribe were
of subjected to the great discomforts
of far -north weather, he says their
kin would be much lighter in hue.
"Some time ago a party of explor-
rs lost their dogs while in the land
f the blond Eskimos, and ordered the
ndians to take the places of dogs iu
he sledge harness. This the Indians
id, but when the white men struck
hem with whips, then the Eskimos
obelled and killed their drivers. Ar -
est followed, but the Canadian Gov-
nment subsequently released the
ends.
"Captain Allen further informed ma
at in that far-off island he found
o stone buildings, and when he tried
learn something concerning their
hider he found that nothing in the
skimos' lore went back far enough
touch them. It may be, suggests
aptain Allen, that Henry Hudson
d his crew, who were et one timo
aroaned in the far north, built the
one !rouses."
The hardships of the arctic country
0 vividly pictured in the story Mr.
geDonald tells of three men who
roke camp" and tried to "seely a
w envirotnnent," They found plenty
it, to judge from the following:
To Limit of Endurance.
These three men, residents of,Idita-
rod, decided they would leave that
camp, where their claims were "peter-
ing" out, and seek a new environment.
They travelled by foot, horseback, and
boat, finally by raft before reaching
their destination, Talkeetna. They
left Iditarod in August and arrived in
Talkeetna the latter part of October.
The trip took them across mighty
swamps and skirted the gigantic base
of Mt. McKinley, They started fully
equipped, but ended their journey
without impedimenta of any kind.
These men walked through swamps
covered with thick Alaskan- moss that
dragged out their very souls, Their
shoe'wore out and the hardy adven-
turers proceeded barefoot.
Wonderful game country was tra-
versed, and so few were the humans
who ventored into that waste that elk,
deer, moose, and other game scarcely
took the trouble to walk out of the
way when the teen advanced. One of
the party weighed 200 pounds when
he started; when he reached the des-
tination he weighed a scant 1t30
pounds. Long before reaching the end
of their journey the "grub" gave out
and the horses were almost "in"; of
course there was plenty of game, but
subsistence on game alone was not
without its trials,
"Nature Was doable -crossing ua,"
tuns the way one of the adventurers
expressed the condition of his party.
From exposure and other hard-
ships the travellers began to grow
stupid, Then came a time when the
trio were too weak to "buck" snow
any more, so stopped to make skiis.
That was October 12, and on that
dab they killed a lynx and ato it with
relish, for by this time they were out
of the good -gave country. Then the
men grew deaf, which, afterward they
!mew to bo a symptom of starvation.
Finally they reaehod a river and took
three days to build a small raft, tart,
had they boon stronger, a half day
would have sufiieod to build; but food
had given out, so they were compelled .
to sluy their faithful dog and eat trim,
On the raft, and toe weak to navigate
it, the men were lashed by the current
and lost ovcrything, 5508 to the
hoarded dog,znoatt food.,
At last, more dead than alive, this
throe mon reached their destination,
but it was a long time before they. re-
gained their strength.
