CAPT. SCOTT AND DR. WILSON,

KONK RENINISCENCES.

Some interesting reminiscences of Ca tain Scott and Dr. Wilson are given in an article hvided Two Heroes of the Antarctic," in the March number of the Lornhill Magazine." Messrs. Saith, Elder, and Co., the publishere of the magazine, were also publishers of Captain Scott's bouk, "Yoyage of the Discovery," and the following reference to the prepara tion of the book appears in the article:

His perfect copradeship with Dr. Wilson, the closest companion of his first expedi tion, as of the last, was delightful to buhold, as they sat together in this room and discussed various points in the forth- coming book.

Time was short; one remember the cheazy question: "How long do you think you would take to do it, Bi?" and the quiet answer in matter-of-fact tone: **I can get it done in thirty-eir hours if 1 sit up all night to it."

Captain Scott would appear in the office from time to time with a new chapter finished, saying, "This is a tread-mill job, and it makes auch duil work that no one is likely to read it," sad would gladly make it over to a friendly hand to make sure that, in bis own phrase, the "books and eybe to many a random sentenco" were in thair right places.
