:GOSSIP FROM:
SCANDINAVIA:

Archaeological Investigations in
Greenland. Capt. Daniel Bruun has
returned to Denmark from Green
land, where he has made archaolog-
zeal Investigations, beginning in the
Godthaab district and continuing
southwark along the coast to the
Julianehaab district, where explora-
tons were made some time ago. He
discovered numerous ruins which have
been unknown until now. These
ruins are dwelling houses, saters (cha-
lets) and hunters huts built by the
Norwegians who settled Greenland in
the middle ages. The excavation of
mounds of kitchen refuse (kokken-
moddinger) brought to light large
quantities of bones of domestic ami
mails, and these are already in Copen-
hagen. Particularly interesting was
the discovery of skeletons of Nor
wegians in churchyard at Ameralik
fjord., Here were also found the
ruins of a church, apd q holy-water
be made of a small image of a Nor
wegian cut out of a walrus tusk. Ru-
ms were found at the lower end of
the Austmanna valley, through which
Nansen came down after crossing
the immense interior glacier on skis.
Almost at the very spot where Nan
sen and Sverdrup built the canvas
boat in which they rowed to Cod
thaab, were also the ruins of safer.
Not far from this place were the ru-
ms of several large farmsteads at the
end of a bay. Captain Bruun was ac-
companied on this trip by Mr.. Ben
dixen, an official from South Green
land. They built cairn in memory
of hansen and his men and marked
it 1888. The cairn stands near the
shore where the hansen expedition
pitched their tent for the last time on
their memorable trip. From this place
Capt. Bruun proceeded southwark,
and he found ruins of no less than
sixteen farmsteads in the fjords north
and south of 1vigtut. This marked
the northern limit of the East Settle
ment (Osterbygden). Capt. BRUINS
discoveries will necessitate thorough
revision Of the map of the settle
ments of the Norwegians in Green
land. From the above it may easily
be inferred that Capt. Bruun is salts

ALL weep for the maid of the days gone
The fairest OF English posies-
With the ripe red lip and the laughing
And a cheek like cream and roses.
She is caught in the flood OF the flowing

For her love for country life has died
We have lost her-and mOre's the pity.

And It's hey laek-a-day for the country

For now in sitting Diapers shop
In the heart of the town you'll find

Does she sigh for the life behind her
For the sweet green fields and the lowing

And the work that was half a pleas

Ere she fancied the town was a golden

Where the poorest might dig for treas

Where she thought she might wed with

The middle class Is becoming a sal

With so many children to take care of

ManIiness or a Little Man.

Several days ago l happened to
board car which was crowded. A
little man, perhaps he was twelve
years old, offered me his seat with
n charming bow and smile. He soon
found seat, but popped up when an
other woman entered, pulled Off his
cap, which was fringed with rags, and
with such a jolly, wide smile, made
room for the newcomer. Five times
in as many minutes that smile broke
over the face of the young traveller
as he gave his seat again and again,
and soon everyons in the car was smil-
Ing in sympathy. No one thought
whether his clothes were whole or
ragged, but some one said: 81 wish
my boys enjoyed being gentlemanly as
much as he does" and a fine-looking
man remarked quite loudly to his
leighbor: That's the sort OF manli.
ness that made our President"
The boy heard this remark and
looked around TO see who was manly.
1t was SO natural for him to smile and
to be polite that he was not conscious

What Proper Food Does for Both
Mind and Body.
Physical health, mental health, in
deed almost everything good on this
earth depend in great measure upon
proper food.
Without health nothing Is worth
while and health can be won almost ev'
cry time by proper feeding on the sci
entific food Grape-Nuts.
A California trained nurse proved
this: Three years ago l was taken
very sick, my work as a trained nurse
having worn me out both in body and
mind, and medicine failed to relieve
me at all. After seeing number of
physicians and specialists and getting
no relief | was very much discouraged
and felt that l would die Of general
nervous and physical collapse.
"My condition was so bad never i'm
agined food would help me, but on the
! advice Of a friend l tried Grape-Nuts
The first package brought me so much
relief that l quit the medicines and
used Grape-Nuts steadily three times a
day. The result was that within six
months I had so completely regained
my strength and health that l was
back nursing again and | feel the I'm
provement in my brain power just as
plainly as | do in physical strength.
"After my own wonderful expert
ence with Grape-Nuts l have recon-
mended it to my patients with splen

have attended professionally" Name
