Fanny Cohen made a pleasing Carrie Calhoun. The play remains at the Grand through the week.

While travelling In Norway recently.

tanning some practical information In
connection with farming In that

are intended to illustrate the typical
condition Of the peasantry. Ia certain
portions Of the south. principally In
the Christiania district, comparatively
large farming operations are carried
on. The contrast between Norwegian
farms and those he has left behind Mt
home, must strike the least obscrvant
tourist. Yet. though he sees much
that seems 10 him rude and antiquated.
one soon finds there are not a few les
sons awaiting tho agrlculturist In the
land OF tho vikings. So adverse are
the conditions under which the Norske
farmer struggles, tnat tho latter must
be almost latter the manner born."
And 1t is not too much to add that, TO
an average farmer, certain bankruptcy
would result whore Norwegian can
make his bread and prosper.
The first impression OF any ordinary
Norwegian farm-steading is not very
favorable. A cluster OF houses, small
and aged, crowd around largo dwell
ing-house, which generally looks
somewhat dilapidated. But this ap-
pearance Is deceptive; for the walls
being Of wood, they look old In few
years, and become blotched and scared
by the weather. The roof is Of the

principal building, either Of red tile or
