NORWAY'S STRANGE BANK.
1t Is the Most Independent Financial
Institution in the World.

The most independent and aristo-
cratic bank in the world is the NOrges,
or National Bank of Norway. Socially,
the bank is of considerable importance.
The directors meet twice a week, II
these friendly gatherings are said to
be most enjoyable affairs. Loans and
discounts form the chief subjects of
conversation. No loan or discount can
be made without the approval of three
of the directors. The directors are to
hold a meeting one day, and you want
to borrow 1000 ON Monday. You APP
ply to NOrges Bank, and are told that
the matter will be taken under consid-
Grafton at the directors meeting on
Wednesday, and you may look for an
answer to your application on Thurs
day. 1t does not matter in the least
that you want the $1,000 on Monday,
and not Thursday you simply have to
wait.
The origin of this institution is as
peculiar as it's management is unusual.
Soon after the nominal union of Nor
way and Sweden, in 1911. the latter
country began to feel the need of
greater money facilities to meet the
demands of the rapidly increasing com
merce. The problem of securing the
necessary capital for a great national
institution was a very simple one fo1
the Norwegian government. 1t raised
stockholders for the bank just as il
raised soldiers for it's armies. Every
well-to-do citizen was compelled tC
take so much stock. He was always a
liberty to take more if he chose, but
always in amounts Invisible by five.
This national bank is also a nationa
pawnshop. 1t is authorized by law t.
lend money on any non-perishabl'
goods, provided they can be deposited
in the bank and kept under lock ant
key. For this service it charges rathe,
less than the usual pawnbroker's inter
est, which may, perhaps, account TO.

Fish Eating Grass.

A rancher whose place is on the
bottom along the Willamette slough,
below Holbrook Station, was in the
city the other day to find out whether
he had recourse to the United States
fish commission for the Introduction
of carl into the rivers of this section.
He says these fish are destroying his
meadows by eating his grass and grub
bling up the roots. AS the water over
flows his meadow the carp follow it
up in thousands, the small ones weigh
ing about three pounds pushing their
way up where the water is only three
inches or so in depth and clearing off
all vegetation, so that when the water
recedes he will have mud flats in place
of meadows.
He says that while looking at the
fish eating his grass he got so mad that
he took off his shoes and stockings and
went out into the shallow water and
attacked them with a hoe. He slashed
a lot of them in two, b ut when the
drove became alarmed and made fol

The Coronation Chair.

When a sovereign is to be crowned
the coronation chair is carried around
the screen, placed in the sacrarium
before the altar, and q robe of CLOTH
of-gold and ermine thrown over it. 1t
has been taken out of the Abbey but
once, and that was when Oliver Crom-
we'll was installed on it as Lord Pro-
tectOr in Westminster hall. Beside 10
is a companion chair, as nearly like it
as possible, which was provided when,
at the coronation of William II Mary,
it was necessary that two thrones Of
equal Importance be employed. AL
though the chairs are of very nearly
the same size, the seat of the newer
one is quite four inches higher than
that Of the Old. an interesting COM
mentary on the human nature of SOv-
ereigns. William, as is well known,
was a small man, several inches short
er than his royal wife, who was on
siderably above the height of the av-
erage woma In order that this ine-
quality in height should not be so con.
spicuous at the ceremony that the king
would be made to look insignificant by
it, the seat of the chair in which he
was to sit was made high enough TO
bring his head on Il level with that

He Learned How.

This story was told of a dog the 9TH
or day: He was very fond of one
member of the family in which he
lived, and was never so happy as when
near him. He would lie outside the
door of his favorite's room, though
there was a rule against his being in
the house.
Again and again he was driven out
of doors, but managed to get back to
the II outside this particular door.
To get to this door the dog had to
cross a piece of oil-cloth. Whenever he
was heard crossing this oil-cloth who
ever heard him would at once drive
him out of doors. At last it was found
that he would get to this door without
being heard. He was watched. 1t
was found hat he would walk natural
ly until he came to this piece of oil
cloth; then he would walk on the ball
of his foot so that his nails would not
touch the Oil-cloth and make a noise.
| Was he not clever?-EXchange.

A REvER MEMORY,
Tough Story About n Young Man
with n Peculiar Mind.

~
with n Peculiar Mind.
Franklin Hart, twenty-siX years old,
whose father lives in Trinity county,
Cal, came to Portland on a visit last
June well supplied with funds. which
he spent freely. He suddenly disap-
peared on the morning of July 4. and
all efforts of the police to trace him
failed. The suicide and foul play theo-
rieS ran out. A large reward was
offered as a stimulus for the detectives.
On July % the fact was established
that young Hart, on the afternoon or
July 4, bought a tourist ticket to h
cago. Chicago was ~ransacked without
locating him. To-day a letter was re-
ceived from Hart. ST., in California,
saying that when he returned home
he found a telegram saying that his
son was in a Chicago hospital. He
lost no time in reaching Chicago, ind
ing Franklin in the county hospital.
convalescent. His son arrived in Ii
cago July -. stopping at the Palmer
house. On the second night he at
tempted suicide by ~asphyXiation with
gas. He was sent to the hospital. and
though his life was saved his mind
was left in a peculiar state.
while FraDklin's physical condition
is so good that he will be able to leave
the hospital in a day or two,' writes
Mr.. Hart, his mental state Startles
me. His mental vision is ~supernatur-
ally prospective. instead OF being re
Prospective, and the physicians here
tell me that there is no parallel case
on record in any part of the civilized
globe. They claim that the phenom-
enon demonstrated in my sons men
tality is one of the many hidden forces
in human nature.
I'm ordinary conversation Franklin
is as lucid as ever, yet it is a matter
difficult for him to recall past events
without hard study. For instance,
when | referred to his Portland visit
and his departure from there, 1t took
him two days to recall even the more
important facts and features of those
events. as they had altogether passed
J from his memory since the almost
tragic death affair at the Palmer
house."
The other peculiar phase of his case
is that he seems to see into the fut,
ure.
For instance, the day prior to Mr.,
Harris arrival in Chicago Franklin
almost verbatim repeated to the doctor
attending him the conversation he had
with his father forty-eight hours in adj
vance, with the same clearness tina
the healthy, normal mind conjures uI
the past.
Another remarkable condition OF
Franklin's mind, writes Mr.. Hart, is
that after the contamination of al
event which he has foretold he is ut
terly unable to remember it.
Last Friday" continued the writer
"Franklin told me that he had on tina
day received a letter from his mother
l knew it was a hallucination, but
asked him what it contained; so III
repeated to me what he imagined hat
been written to him. The day follow
ing he, indeed, got Il letter from hi
mother without the slightest variation
from his prophetic revelation. Ever!
hour in the day my son startles M
and the doctors by some evidence o
his wonderful mental vision"

their mouths wide and showed their
glittering teeth and looked at their adj
v~ersaries so furiously and maliciously
that the hounds. usually bold and bat
~tle-hardened, shrank back. BY the
time the dogs were encouraged to re-
new their attacks, the whole herd had
made their way. covered by the rear
guard, to the rocks, except a siX-month
old monkey, which was left behind.
The little monkey sat on a rock sur
rouned by the dogs, but was rescued
by an old balloon, who stepped down
from the cliff near, andvanced toward
the dogs, kept them in check by gestures
and menacing sounds, picked up the
baby monkey and carried it to the cliff,
where the dense crowd of monkeys,
shouting their battle cry, were watch
ing his heroism.

Their communities are numerous
enough to reproduce in miniature the
movements of troops. The tribe often
numbers from $50 to 300 individuals.
Of these the females and young are
placed in the center when on the
march, while the old males march in
front and also close the rear. Other
males scout upon the TANKS. It has
been noticed that these remain Oh
guard, and do not feed during the
whole time that the rest are gathering

A Giant Among SWINGS

Texas, the giant state of the Union,
possesses the biggest swing in the
world. 1t was built recently by a man
who was giving a party and wanted
II attraction that should be entirely
new. The two uprights are two pine
logs seventy-eight feet long. These
are driven into the ground eight feet,
so they are very firm and stand
straight in the air for seventy feet.
When you think that a tall man is
only six feet in height you can esti-
mate how tall the posts are. A heavy
piece of timber is put across the top,
and from this hangs the swing. When
the swinger is strapped in he or she
takes hold of one end of a rope, whose
other end goes over a pulley fixed on
a pole forty feet high, hat is set a lit
tie distance away from the swing.
After the rope is over the pulley 1t Ia
attached to a team of horses, which
starts away with it, pulling the swing
er up to the height of the pole. There
he let's go and swings off into space,
describing a wide sweep to the other
side of the frame. One turn at the
swing generally is enough to satisfy
one for an evening.

Spoke to theWrong Man.

A millionaire railway king has Il
brother who is hard of hearing, while
he himself is remarkable as having a
very prominent nose. One evening the
railway man dined at a friends house
and was seated between two ladies,
who talked to him very loudly, rather
to his annoyance, but he said nothing.
Finally one of them shouted a COM
monplace remark and then said, in an
ordinary tone, to the other: Did you
ever see such a nose in your life?'
Pardon me, ladies'" said the railway
Il st is my brother who is deaf"
Imagine the horror of the lady.

How 10 Mend IL Silk Waist.

A dressmakcr lays down three rules
for mending a silk waist: Use ravel-
ings when you can. Sew from the Un-
der side. Do not turn over edges, but
darn fiat ard trust to careful press
ing. If a bone begins to show through,
do not mend, but cut off the bone IN
inch. If the silk wears off around the
hooks and eyes, move them along ever
so little. Make Il virtue of wOrn-out
seams by applying black feather stitch
mig; and remember that Il silk waist
is good as long as the upper part of
the sleeves remain. Plastron, chOker,
lace. cuffs and careful mending make
a new waist for you.
