Eskimo Mike, my own interpre- ter until I had mastered the verna- cular, sent out for a microscope, which someone had described to him. It cost him $150, but he was quite satisfied with the transac tion, and spent days examining cer- Lain small insects which were very easily to be obtained.

The supply ship also brings in osch white man's annuel ration of spirits, which must not exceed two) gallona This arbitrary imita- tion has induced certain Arctic. unregenerates to order two. gallons of pure alcohol, on the principle of multum 10 parvo.
