Ten other propositions of interna-
tional interest to geographers were
approved by the congress, the most
important of which are detailed in
Admiral Peary’s report, which has
just reached the National Geograph-
ic society. Admiral Peary was one
of the delegates to the congress from
the society, the other American mem-
bers of the organization of the con-
! gress being Henry Gannett, president
■ of the society; Gen. Hubbard, presi-
dent of the Peary Arctic club; Rear
Admiral Colby M. Chester, U. S. N.;
Prof. Libbey of Princeton university.
Dr. Arthur L. Day of Washington,
W. W. Rockhill and Profs. Davis,
Ward and Daly of Harvard univer-
sity.
Among the propositions approved
by the congress, in addition to the
back in those days
there were women
who loved their
canine pets just
about as much as
does Mrs. William
E. Carter of Bryn
Mawr, New York,
Philadelphia, New-
port and various
other centers of
fashion. Mrs. Car-
ter, it will be re-
membered, is the
woman who has
retired from so-
cial circles tem-
porarily while her
Pekinese poodle,
Hee Too, is recov-
ering from an at-
insist that Hee Too is a distant rela-
tion of a blue-blooded ancestor that
once sat in the lap of Queen Victoria
and was fondled frequently by the
late King Edward.
But his pedigree is not the only
claim to distinction which Hee Too
possesses. He’s a trick dog who can '
actually sit up and beg, can jump I
through a hoop and they do say he
has table manners so elegant as to
make the most fastidious of his royal
breed sit up and take exceptional
notice.
There is a certain sentiment sur-
rounding the poodle, too. Mrs. Carter
made a trip to England especially to
get Hee Too. She had a dog just
like Hee Too, and she thought a lot
of it. With her husband she was
bringing the original Hee Too back
from Europe on the Titanic, when
that steamship struck an iceberg and
went to the bottom. Hee Too the
First went down with the ship. Mr.
and Mrs. Carter managed to get into
a lifeboat with their children and
were saved. But poor Hee Too the
First, with a half dozen canine com-
panions, was • swallowed up in the
waters.
The first Hee Too was a great fav-
orite with Mrs. Carter, and there was
much ado about his sudden and early
demise. The Carters heard of another
Hee Too in London, who looked for
all the world like a twin brother of
He Too the First So Mrs. Carter
got aboard ship, took a trip to Eng-
land and brought back with her the
Hee Too which is now prostrated at

Where 'to buy dru cheapest is one question. Where to buy them best is
another. We can answer both quesions in one. Buy of us and you buy not
only the best but you buy cheapest. We sell good drugs at the lowest possible
price because we do not have to make up on drugs or prescriptions what ordi-
nary drug stores lose on cut price medicines. The manufacturer makes the
• medicine and sets the price. You buy them on his recommendation and at
the price he asks. You never get something for nothing at any time so why
bite at the bait of the price-cutter? Deal at our store at all times and you will
find that in the,long run you will save money no matter what your wants
may be. \

Peary says in his report, may be '
noted the following:
“To convoke another official con-
ference, in Paris, near the end of the
current year, to which delegates from
all civilized countries are to be in-
vited, to determine questions of de-
tail of a 1—100,000 world map.
“That the most important problems
to be settled in connection with the
international exploration of the north
Atlantic ocean relate to the size, he
regional extent and the nature of
periodical variations of water layers
to the depth of 1,000, meters, and it
was recommended to continue sys- ।
tematic observations upon ocean cur- ;
rents and upon the temperature and
salinity near the surface of the sea.
“That the Royal Danish Geograph- j
ical society invite the general secre- 1
taries of the principal geographical i
societies of the world to meet in
Denmark in 1914 for the purpose of
organizing a world union of geograph-
ical societies.
“To organize in each country during
the summer vacation periods of the
higher institutions of learning inter-
national courses of instruction in
geography, in which foreign savants
would be invited to take part. The
plan contemplates also the founding
of an international geographical in-
stitute, the seat of which is left for
later determination, this institute to
direct and co-ordinate the studies and
all geographical initiatives which have
an international character.
“For the preparation of a universal
geography as a complement to the
1-1,000,000 world map, and the pre-
sentation to the next congress of a
practical working plan for such prep-1
aration."

Washington a close friend of the
