Ten Thousand Miles with a Dog Sled
_With 48 illustrations, 4 in color._ _$3.50 net; postage

If you would see the vast snow-fields, frozen rivers, and rugged,
barren mountains of the Yukon country but cannot visit them you
will do the next best thing by reading this often beautiful
account of a missionary's ten thousand miles of travel in
following his hard and dangerous work. It is the story of a brave
life amid harsh, grand, and sometimes awful surroundings.
