A WOMAN EXPLORER

Miss Mary Jobe has set herself, and her enterprise is being watched with bated interest. She has gone to explore unknown regions in northern Britisn Columbia, and she has gone alone. Miss Mary Jobo is a learned history professor in New York Normal College. She is a tall, strong, handsome younp, woman, who was born in Ohio and educated at Bryn Mawr, where sho distinguished herself equally as a scholar and an athlete. Ana these two sides of development she has kept pretty evenly balanced evor since. "I hopo that as a result of ray tfuvols this Bummer," says .Miss Jobe, "there will be something new to put on the map of North-Western British Columbia. I liave helped to do that! in Central British Columbia." j Miss Jobo's wardrobe i 3 worth describing., Her "best dress" is made of a kind of flannel such as men's outing shirts are made of. The outfit includes knickerbockers, a military blouse of Misa Jobo's own designing, and a short skirt. This is for wear on tho journey to the starting place as it were. When she gets "down to work," as she puts it, another costume will do duty. This consists of a trim blouse and trousers of serviceable corduroy and another suit of kbakie. "Oh, yes," she says, "I have to take along plenty of warm clothing because I sometimes get into high' altitudes, but I dispense with frills. It is a simple summer wardrobe. My friends say I look like rather a nice boy!" "I do not know just liow far I shall go this summer, but I expect to cover at least 400 miles. Certainly on foot. I've done 300 easily before. I want to study the carrier Indians as thoroughly as I can in the time I have at my disposal." The success attained from the preparations for the Scalp, Hair, and Skin, manufactured under Miss Mil6om's supervision, after 16 years of experience, lias resulted in positive cures for Danaruff, Irritation of'the Scalp, Falling Hair, and Grey hair.

I The coming of summer brings with it that oft-folt dcsiro for a cool, refreshing soft drink, and the soda fountain can always fulfil this requirement. One of the latest and most up-to-date soda fountains is that which lias just been installed ia Fail's Cafe, on Lambton Quay, to the order of the proprietor, Mr. J. Fraser. The machinery, which mixes'ttio gas with, the water and makes tho soda, is automatically ■ worked, and so long as the two essentials—gas and water—are in good supply, a cool, refreshing soft drink is assured. Before the water -is passed into tho machine to be mixed, it passes thirouflh a filter containing five stone| cylinders, so as to insnro '.wholesome' water. From the machine, tho water charged with gas passes through an ice chest, and then out to tho fountain. The works and fountain are conspicuously clean, and the various and numerous fruit drinks are guaranteed pure. This new departrnent, which was oponed yesterday, is being run in conjunction witn this popular cafej
