In this way we made our way over the mountain on which we had crashed, and then to the top of another peak By that time the fog had lifted slightly. None too soon, either, be- cause we wers within a few paces of a 1,400 foot precipice. Hit by Snow Blindness. “Realizing the danger of trying to get over the mountains through the fog, we returned to a creek we had ust crossed. We thought it would surely bring us out somewhere along the shore. It ran toward Bering sea, and as long as we followed it we were no longer obliged to do any more climbing. Due’ partly to the smoke from our campfires of the previous day and partly to snow pjindness, Harvey was having trou ble with his eyes. But from ll a m. to 4:30 p. m. we kept on along the stream until we emerged from a small canon into a. level. marshy region. About four or five miles , was as far as we could see now, and we were still unable to tell how far we were from the shore. “Realizing that {t would not be long until darkness would be upon us, we decided to camp for the night near @ thicket where there were enough branches from alder bushes te provide us with fuel. Although our clothing was ample to keep us warm while walking, it was far from sufficient during the night. It was impossible to le down, and al- ways necessary for one of us to watch the fire and keep on the look ott, That night we made up our minds {t would be folly to attempt to reach the coast on the Bering sea side of the peninsula, both because there were sure to be fewer inhabl- tants and because we had been in- férmed there was no driftwood on those shores. So at daybreak on the morning of the third, we re- traced our steps to the airplane. Hike Back to the Plarie. “Sergt. Harvey's eyes were now in a more serious condition and he could hardly see, despite the fact that he was wearing amber colored goggles. By using boric acid from the first ald kit the inflammation was reduced to nearly normal’ by the following morning. By then the OMB SAGE. TEN INTO GRAY HAIR Common garden sage ‘brewed into echeavy tea, with sulphur and alco- hol added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and sxuriant. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home, though, is troublesome. An easier way is to get the ready-to-use preparation improved by the afdition of other ingredients a large bottle, at little cost, at drug stores, known as “Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound” thus avoiding a lot of muss. While gray faded hair is not sinful we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractiveness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell, because it does it so naturally, so evenly, ° You just dampen @ sponge or soft brush with t.and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have dis. appeared. After another applica tion or two your hair becomes beau tfully dark, glossy, soft and lux uriant and you appear years young er—Adv.

But during the remaining daylight hours we succeeded in killing two} ptarmigans with an army fistol. The ptarmigan is about twice the size of a pigeon and is indigenous to Alaska. «We cooked one in the meat can of my mess outfit and had {t for supper. It was very appetizing, despite the fact that we had neither fat nor salt and used water to keep the meat from burning. ‘The other bird we cooked for breakfast. Lake, But No Trappers. “Early next morning we started out for the lake again, reached it about noon, and scanned {t in vain withour field glasses, but were un- able to find a cabin or any other sign of human habitation. By now my eyes were giving me trouble and was suffering from snow blind ness in spite of the fact that I was wearing amber goggles. As our best chance seemed to rest on finding a pass through the mountains to the southward and as there was a lake and stream indi- cated on our maps which conformed to those which we had crossed, we figured that by following the stream at the southern most point of the lake we should come out at Ivanof pb; But it turned out that after a short distance the stream flowed in the opposite direc- tion. Nevertheless hoping to find @ pass through the mountains, we followed {t. On account of my eyes it was now necessary for Harvey to lead the way, and we kept on, ‘not- withstanding the fact that we were weak and exhausted. “At 2 o'clock that afternoon we also-say. thatthe newspapers. can- to form not publish other parts of data: pri- vate or public property?

Cabin Snowed In. “We made some hot cakes, but not having eaten any solid food for some time, about two of them, was all we could stand. At any-rafe we now had both shelter and food. Despite the wood fire we. spent a cold night and awoke the next morn- ing to find it snowing heavily. The storm lasted all ‘d: all that night, and all through the next day. “The morning of the 9th we took a walk to try and locate our posi- tion, and finally decided that we were on Moller bay an arm of Bering sea, Later Sergt.

Har- vey, after investigating, reported that he had seen a body of water about three miles to the south. But we were too exhausted to go on that night and again camped in an alder thicket. “By 7:30 the next morning we ar- rived at the shore of the water which Sergt. Harvey had seen on the previous, afternoon, and there we saw a cabin only half a mile away. Here we found a small cache of food, including’ flour, salted salmon, bacon fat, baking powder dried peaches, condensed milk, sirup, and coffee. There was also a quan- tty of wood cut for a small heat- ing Stove, and it looked as though the cabin might have been occupied after putting the cabin in order, we started out’on the morning of the 10th for Port Moller, which turned out to be twenty-five miles distant. The weather was clear and calm, so we made excellént progress along the beach, except for three or four miles where cliffs jutted out into the sea. At 4 that afternoon we saw a wireless mast and smokestack in the distance. Just as we were won- dering whether we would find any- body there, we saw smoke coming from the stack, and as. we were crossing a sandy stretch about a mile ‘wide a launch .put out from the cannery on its way to a native village called Hot Springs, on the western shore of Moller ba: There were two men and three women in the launch, all of them natives. The man in charge Was a Mr,’ Jake Oroloff, who ferried us across to the cannery. Here we were greeted by the superintendent and other em- ployes, who seemed as overjoyed at seeing us as we were at. meeting them. “While amounting to $3,000,000. brought the total withdrawals of proceeds from the sale of the German loan to $10, 000,000. % Little Liver Pills, my stomach and. bowels were relieved, foul and impure gases climinated. : “Ivnow enjoy a wholesome breath WASHINGTON — Bills carrying } as well as improved health.
