STOCXHOLM'S COMING SHOW.
Some thing About the Exhibition to
BE Given Next summer.

lie G1Ven Next Sur1rEe r.
The year 1897 will be noteworthy in
the history of the Scandinavian north.
Two great occurrences will then direct
the eyes of the whole north toward
tockholm-namely the great Scandi-
navian-Russian exhibition and the %
years jubilee of King Oscar. In Stock
holm's Bots de Bologne, quite near this
wondrously beautiful city, are the ex-
hibition grounds, on narrow point of
land, on both sides surrounded by the
blue waters of the Baltic and extending
toward the newest and most elegant
part of Stockholm. At first only an
exclusively Scandinavian exhibition
was intended, but as Russia and the
archduchy of Finland have now official
]y announced their intention to par
take both in the art industrial and the
national industrial sections the eXhi-
bition has assumed the character of an
exhibition of nearly the whole of the
north.
Thus in the great industrial hall the
Swedish, Norwegian, Danish and Rus
sian exhibitors will be seen side by side.
This hall, which has a floor surface
of 10000 square meters, is the greatest
wooden building that has ever been con-
structed. Its great cupola rises to a
height of about 100 meters and is sur
rounded by four nlinarets, containing
prospect bridges, from which n fine
view is to be had Of the exhibition
grounds and Stockholm, with its en-
virons, so renowned for their beauty.
with their sinuous bays and inlets and
wood-covered islets. Another of the
principal buildings of the exhibition is
the Northern museum, with its pro-
visional addition, destined for the cul-
tural exhibit. On the shore of Djur-
gardsbrunnsviken, with more than the
half of it built out over the water, lies
the Swedish and Danish fishery hall,
q most original building, designed by
Eugen Thorburn. Norway, with its
enormous fisheries, will build it's own
fishery hall. Great viaducts lead to the
other parts of the exhibition grounds.
Here another view opens before the
eyes of the visitor, the beautiful pano-
rama of Stockholm's famous harbor
and its charming environs.
The principal buildings Of this Sec
ton of the grounds are the machinery
hall, giant building Of iron and glass,
having O. floor surface of 10000 square
meters, and the great art hall. The art
exhibit will be the clou of the exhibit
ton. Owing to the interest shown for
this exhibition by it's president, the
eminent artist, his royal highness
Prince Eugen, the youngest son of King
Oscar, this exhibit will be international
and contain works by most of the IA
nous painters of the day. - Chicago

Spring cleaning need not necessarily
be made the drudgery it is if properly
done. Paints, floors, hard walls and
windows may all be cleaned without
rubbing, by wiping over with strong
suds made of Ivory soap and hot, soft
water, then rinsed and dried A room

positions displayed ability second to that

directors was chosen, and the meeting ad-
JCurned. The present board will undoubt-
