The attendants. come in for large perquisites, as comestible articles are never allowed to appear twice on the royal tables. It must be a good thing to beone of these attendants, as to one man falls all the uncorked bottles, to another the wine left in the glasses, and the game, fish, and sweets are equally divided in the same way. Each morning a market is held in the basement of the palace, where the Viennese come to purchase the re- mains of the banquet. This custom is a revival of one that obtained great favor in the Middle Ages. Then the great lords of the land were not above accepting the remains of a feast and the lord chancellor was entitled to the ends of one large candle and forty small ones each day. He in his turn made capital of this iperquisite and undoubtedly his ex- chequer was greatly increased by it at the end of the year.

For years she has been collecting horse shoes, picked up in the streets, and now she has made two words out of them, “Great Luck,” and nailed them on the wall of her parlor. All are welcome to call and see them, but each must pay 5 cents or more for the privilege. The money thus paid goes into the mission fund, a considerable sum having already been contributed. oe 8 In a speech at Minneapolis the 17th of May, John W. Arctander, one of the prominent Norwegians of America, proposed that people of Norwegian de- scent in the United States take steps to raise among themselves $1,000,000 to present to Mother Norway in 1814, when she celebrates the 100th anniver- sary of her independence. The idea aroused the greatest interest among Norwegians on both sides of the At- lantic, some favoring and others op- posing it. Mr. Arctander’s scheme was to repay Norway in a measure for what she has lost through the emigra- tion to America of thousands of her best sons, and the princely gift, he said, is to be expended in internal im- provements of the country—to drain the marshes, to clothe the naked hills with forests and fertilize the fields that are becoming barren from misuse. But others, while favoring the idea of handing Norway such a gift, object to having it used in the manner proposed by Mr. Arctander. That, they say, would imply, and publish to the world, that Norway is a poverty-stricken land, in need of help from abroad. Their plan is to build and endow a university for education of the sons and daugh- ters of the peasants. It seems that a majority of the peo- ple of Norway oppose Mr. Arctander’s proposition. Recently the Bergen Tidende, one of the leading Norwegian papers, said in part: “The plan to raise funds for the purpose of clothing the mountains with forests and to cultivate the moors” is, to be sure, well meant, but it is based on the theory that Norway is a poor country, which needs help. This is not true, and we do not wish that anything shall be done to strengthen this belief, either here or abroad. If the people of Norway were compelled to work as vigorously as those who emigrate to other countries, our coun- try would not be poor. And, on the other hand, if our people get the idea that the prosperity of the country de- pends upon the help of the state or foreigners, then Norway would decline in prosperity and self-respect. We must build our country ourselves, if any real good is to result from it, and we must have faith in ourselves. “Tf our countrymen on the other side of the Atlantic would send over a few thousand of their best men, with sti- pends as itinerant teachers, then we would accept the gift with thanks— itinerant teachers who would instruct our people in the American rule of life, ‘help yourself.’ ”’ © SWEDEN.

Sveaborg castle has been called the Gibraltar of the North, and as it bears a Swedish name and is in that part of Finland over which Sweden once ruled, the Swedish people are greatly inter- ested in its future. * * *# The well known Bible translator and missionary, Dr. Erick Nystrom, is dead in Algiers, where he has lived since 1887. He was also prominent in public life, representing the city of Stockholm in the second chamber of the riksdag during the 80s. Of late years he was engaged in the translation of the New Testament into Arabic, being employ- ed by the British Bible society. He was born at Stockholm in 1842. ses € The eleventh international temper- ance congress was in session in Stock- holm the early part of August, dele- gates being present from all over the world. There was great enthusiasm at the opening of the convention, and ina parade that followed over 20,000 people participated. About 100 delegates took part in the discussion, which was ex- ceedingly animated. It was the con- sensus of opinion that the cause of temperance is gaining ground every- where. * * ©£ Rev. Ernberg, the prison chaplain, has published a report in which he states that a majority of the criminals of Sweden are young men who left their homes in the country for the cities, where they expected to find more remunerative employment. Dis- appointed in their expectations, they drift into idleness and crime. Rev. Ernberg therefore urges that the rural youths be kept at home, where they are needed. ss *¢ * DENMARK, Dr. George Dreyer, assistant in the laboratory of medical bacteriology, University of’ Copenhagen, has been appointed professor of pathology in the University of Oxford.

It is so long since they began their work that the people had almost decided that their report would never be forthcoming. The document is being printed and will be presented to the rigsdag when it reassembles. *- *+ * As was stated in these columns, it has been the policy of Denwark to deal liberally with her tributary, Iceland, because of the latter’s restlessness un- der Danish rule, and has allowed her of late years to manage her own affairs with but little interference from Co- penhagen. On July 31st King Fred- erick stated at a banquet in Reykja- vik, the Icelaudic capital, that the isl- and shall enjoy all the rights of a free country. He said: “IT have inherited the kingdom as a unit, and as such it shall remain from generation to generation, but I have also inherited from my father the tra- dition that the Icelanders are to be a free people who co-operate with the king in framing the laws under which they are to live. “T have therefore established a com- mission, consisting of members of the Danish rigsdag and the Icelandic althing, to arrange the legislation to define the constitutional position of Iceland in the realm and to find a form under which the freedom of Iceland may be built up and protected while at the same time the unity of the realm is preserved and insured.” The Editor’s Ultimatum. “You didn’t print my hailstone story?” “Nix.” “And why not?” “Hailstone stories must be accom- panied by a reasonable number of hen eggs, not necessary for publica- tion, but merely as a guarantee o: faith.” Cee pat BSN Ded Eas Stationary Colors.
