SnOw-ShOeing in Norway.

OF all the bodily exercises | know OF
there is none in my opinion that can
come up to snow-shOeing, as it is done
in Norway. Skating is nothing com
pared to this sport. What can equal
the splendid sensation of flying across
the deep snow at the rate of many miles
an hour, without hardly moving mus
cleP And then, going down hill, staff
in hand, no exertiOn necessary other
than to keep the balance. while gliding
softly but swiftly onward. Unlike the
Canadian snOw-shoes, the ska (pro-
nounced shee) of the Norwegians are
often fully twelve feet long, curving up
ward at the prov, and are not broader
than three or four inches. Throughout
the whole length they are provided
with a groove for the purpose of keep
ing them from slipping when going at
an angle downhill Although by no
means slow when used across level
ground, it is yet downhiIl that they are
most effective, for their long length and
their polished underestimate on the
frozen snow cause speed more like
flying than any other motion know Of.
che inhabitants of Telemarken, in the
south of Norway, are the most efficient
sci runners; and at the annual COMPETE
tons at Christiania, generally bear off
the prizes. At the competition there
in 1879, one of these men leaped, ac-
cording to local newspaper, distance
of thirty Norwegian Gten, or fully sixty
feet Into this country it viii not be
possible to introduce them, as of course
there would be little or no opportunity
for using them the snow never lying

WHEN a man brings guest home to
dinner, says a contemporary, the best
of women will contrive to make that
man feel so utterly miserable. so blight
ed, so downcast, that he will most cor
daily wish that he had never been
born All that he will long for will be
an opportunity to flee into Tarshish, or
anywhere, to get rid of the responsible
ity that is sitting down stairs in the
person of the other man who is waiting
for this dinner to which he never ought
to have been asked-at least not until
the matter had been all talked over be-
forehand and sufficiently stupendous
preparations male for regaling him
with the fat and the sweet OF the land.

IT is estimated that the Island Of Ja-

the recent hurricane, and it is feared that

have had their houses blown away and their

going on anywhere, except the work of re-
storing the shattered dwellings,. In many Of
