Servants in Norway.
(Chicago ecord-Herald.l

The servant-girl problem has been
solved in Norway to the satisfaction Of
all concerned. In large cities like Ber>
gen and Christiana there is a central En-
ployment Bureau under the direction Of
the Municipal Government, and twice q
year-one week before New Years Day
and one week before st. Johns Day. the
24th of June-there is general change
of servants by those who are dissatisfied
with existing conditions, and engagements
are made for the ensuing six months OF
the year. Families who want servants
fill out blanks setting forth what is re-
CURED and the wages they are willing to
pay. These are fled at the Employment
Office and are noted in 4 conspicuous
manner upon a blackboard.
Women or men in search of employment
go TO this bureau during the weeks
named, examine the black board and apply
to the clerk in charge for further Informal
ton. If they desire to apply for Il par
ticular position they submit their recon-
mcndations to the clerk, and if he is sat-
isiied he gives them a card to the lady
of the house. That card is good for the
day only and must be returned by the
lady Of the house before the close of Of
fee hours. If the girl is engaged the
blanks upon the card are filed out with
a general statement as to her duties the
term of service and the wages agreed
upon; and the card is filed away for ref
erence if necessary.
If the lady of the house is not satisfied
with the applicant she sends her away
and returns the card marked mot salts
factory" to headquarters with a request
that other applicants be sent to her IL
the applicant is satisfactory the lady Of
the house pays her bonus of one krone
or two kroner, called hand mOney''-that
is she crosses her hand with silver as an
evidence of good faith-and the girl agrees
to report for duty within one week after
New Years or Midsummer's day, as the
case may be. This is to allow her pres
ent employer an opportunity to fill her
place.
If there is any complaint upon either
side it must be made to a Magistrate, who
investigates and decides between them. A
family cannot get rid of q servant during
her term of employment without official
intervention. On the other hand, the
girls wages are q first lien upon their
property for the entire term, although
judgment must be rendered and made a
matter of record. If servant runs away
from her employer she can be arrested by
the police and imprisoned and fined.
Cooks are paid from 81 to 81 a month;
housemaids from So to Sc a month; men
buffers, from $40 to S15; coachman, from
So to SIG a month; scullery maids and
men of all work receive corresponding
wages.

the eyes of the snemys sharpshooters,
and then rode slowly back unframed.
We remained on the hill for a time, the
front regiment of the brigade, with the
exception of the 4th Mich, being jumbled
together In some confusion behind, when
again we received orders to march by the
left flank. All this waste of time chafed
Col. Quincy and his officers exceedingly.
We moved by the flank, however, and
were then ordered to march in line of
battle up the hill, to take a position at
the crest and hold it. This was definite,
and promised something exciting; so, on
we went through the enemy's fire, cutting
down and dashing through wire fences,
until we gained the brow of the hill. Our
flags were driven into the ground, and
with our colors fluttering defiance in front
of the enemy, we lay down, leaving the
bullets to whistle harmlessly over our
heads. We lay in this position, expecting
every moment orders TO charge the stone
wall from behind which Ewells Division
was doing such tremendous execution.
But they did not come. Night gradually
fell upon us; the roar of artillery ceased;
the roll of musketry gradually died away,
and at dark all was still. The shouts of
the rebels, who Were but few hundred
yards from us, could be heard, and the
groans of their wounded; ours had been
taken to the city and across the river.

Flowers From Garden of Gethsemene.

Apollo COmmandery, of Chicago, dis
tributed a unique souvenir during the
Knights Templar Conclave in Louisville,
KY, last week. The Commandery had
secured 1,500 flowers from the Garden of
Gethsemane, a spot made sacred through
its connection with the life and history
of Christ, and these were given to the
women who visited their headquarters.
The flowers were of many varieties.
There were roses of all kinds, ferns, olive
sticks, and nearly every other flower that
grows in the Holy Land. They are
pressed and are attached to a handsomely
Autographed card with the compliments
of Apollo Commandery on them.
Two years ago Mr.. ]. II. Buehler, a
member of the Commandery, was trav-
cling in the Holy Land, and the idea
struck him that these flowers would
make a pretty and valuable souvenir for
the Louisville COnclave. He wrote his
COmmandery at Chicago and suggested
his idea. 1t was Immediately acted upon,
and the cards for the flowers were lith-
ographed in Chicago and sent to Jerusa-
lem, where the flowers We're gathered,
pressed, and returned to this country
Apollo COmmandery also had another
attractive souvenir which it distributed
during the week. 1t was a fac-simile of
Templar coin used in Antioch in 1909
and 1870. The COmmandery has several
of the original coins, which are little
larger than a silver ten-cent piece From
these it has had fac-simile struck with
memorial of the Louisville ConcIave
in the center.

cordial invitation to witness the presenta-
ton of a stand OF new colors, given to
the Irish Brigade by the ladies of New
York, which took place in the theater of
Fredericksburg, and, considering the sur
rounding oppressive circumstances, passed
off with considerable eclat.
After the presentation, on returning to
our comfortable quarters, news greeted
us that our regiment was again ordered
to the front. Hour after hour passed
away, however, and still no orders came.
At last we retired to rest. About mid
night we were aroused. and the regiment
began to move. We imagined we were
going to the front, and not until we ar
rived at the pOntoon did we discover that
Fredericksburg was being evacuated.
We crossed the river that night, and,
after a weary march, reached our old
camp at StOneman's Station, Falmouth,
as the day was breaking.
At Fredericksburg, Burnside suffered in
more respects than one. When that IN
fortunate battle was over, we recrOssed
the Rappahannock, and while engaged in
the weary process of retreat, n long and

of these pages will go with the author
into his life and see how the boy was
transformed into a soldier; will march
with him over mountains and across riv-
ers; will camp on the hillside and stand
guard IN the moonlight and in the rain

lonely forest, and again in the wild charge.
The humorous, the pathetic, the pre-
posterous, the eXtravagant phases of war
are all told with the pen of master.
Finally comes grim battle, the defeat, the
surrender, the travelling through the South
as a prisoner of war; the experiences in
Richmond prisons and at CHASTITY Belle
Isle; then comes the climax in the prison
stockade at Andersonville Itself, with its

and in a few moments found ourselves

We halted by order for moment, then
marched slowly and steadily by the right
flank farther across the plain, crossing
a small gully in which lay several bodies.
Having marched a sufficient distance in
the estimation of a Pennsylvania Colonel
who commanded our brigade, we again
