Doctor Cook and the North Pole

By Editor

It is an interesting story that Doctor Cook tells us in Hampton's Magazine for January. He tells it in a pathetic sort of way too. He says: "Did I get to the North Pole? I confess that I do not know absolutely." But he tells us that which made it seem to him that he reached that point. Admit the suffering and hardship which his story describes, and you can well believe that he believed he had reached the top of the earth. Many will believe it; many others will sneer at it. As we read it we wonder why men will suffer so much for a profitless thing, when there are so many nobler things of life calling.
