TO 



THE MEMBERS OF 

 THE POOR RICHARD CLUB 



OF PHILADELPHIA 



In whose company I have spent so many happy hours 

 amid such delightful associations, and especially 

 to those members who conceived and so 

 generously arranged for my "Wel- 

 come Home from the Yukon" 

 dinner, this book is af- 

 fectionately dedi- 

 cated.
