MRS. FRIDTJOF NANSEN.

The wife of the world-famous Arctic
explorer is a great favorite in Nor
wegian society on her own account,
beside being, of course, now kind OF
queen as the wife of her husband. But
before she was married she was much
sought after in Christiania, because,
for one thing she is one of the finest
musicians in Norway, the possessor OF
an extraordinary and highly cultivated
voice, and-an unusual combination
an accomplished pianist as well.
When in England a year ago Mrs.
Nansen played and sang before Queen
Victoria at Windsor, and the queen
was very gracious in her expressions of
pleasure in the occasion; and though
SO much could hardly be said in regard
to any other art, a compliment from
the queen on things musical is a
genuine triumph, for she loves music
deeply, and really knows a great deal
about it.
Mrs hansen is considered decidedly
intellectual; her family has been dis

STRETCHED A POINT.

An English nobleman had just fin-
ished tale of a tiger he had shot
which measured twenty -four feet from
snout to tail-tip Every one was as
tonished, but mo ONE ventured to i'm
simulate a doubt of the truth of the
story, when presently Scotchman
told his tale
He had once caught a fish which he
said he was unable to pull out alone,
managing only to land it at last with
the aid of six friends cit was a skate
and covered two acres" Silence fol-
lowed this recital, during which the
offended nobleman left the table. The
host followed. After returning he
said to the Scotchman: Sir, you have
insulted my lord. You must apologize
Il dinna insult him. said the Scot
Eyes you did, with your two-acre fish
story. You must apologize" Well
said the offender, slowly, tell him if
he will take ten feet off that tiger I
will see what can do with the fish,

tinguished for generations for the
number of professors it has contribut.
ed to Norwegian institutions of learn
ing, particularly to the university at
Christiania. Such family history
confers distinction anywhere, but
particularly is this so in Norway,
where there is neither aristocracy nor
plutocracy. But perhaps Mrs. Nansen's
good looks and love of outdoor sports
are to her husband as decided attrac-
lions as her musical or mental gifts
She is the just the contrast in coloring
to him that she should be-dark-haired
and dark-eyed, and contrast in size,
too, for she is decidedly little woman
Running over hill and dale on Nor
wegian snowshoes is the great winter
sport of Scandinavia, and Mrs hansen
is an expert at skilObning, as they call
it; once when she was skilobning in
the mountains with her husband she
did too much, and became exhausted;
she was wearing short dress and a
long coat and high boots. Her hus-
band picked her up in his arms and

A Chicago physician has found a

The victim of the 'fhotel anaemia''
