HAAkON AT BERGEN.
Lays Cornerstone of the Splendid New
Theater

Lays Cornerstone of the Splendid New
Theater.
King Haakon laid the foundation
stone of the new Bergen theater last
Wednesday and made a fine address
The city was profusely decorated with
flags, garlands and evergreens. The
royal guests left in the evening, when
huge bonfires blaZed from the sum-
mits of the seven mountains near
Bergen.
Those on Floifjeldet were arranged
SO as to form the letters III and
M outlined in flames and 800 feet
high. This was the farewell greeting
to their majesties.
Upton Sinclair's book, "The Jun
gle," has been translated into Swedish
and is being published, with many
Illustrations, by the Excelsior Publish
ing louse Of Stockholm. There is
great interest over the book in
Sweden, and it is certain to have a
tremendous sale.
P. Thorstenberg, European represen-
tative of the United States Steel cor
poration, has been appointed a mem
Der of the royal commission to make
new ordinances for the Royal Technf
cal institute at Stockholm. This is
one of the foremost institutions of it's
kind in Europe.

was regarded as one of the most in
dustrious members of that body He
was constant in his attendance upon
the sessions of the senate, and never
missed a committee meeting. Mr..
Cockerell is taking these habits of in
dustry into the interstate commerce
commission, and has become so inter-
ested in the preparations now being
made for the enforcement of the new
railroad rate law that he has declined
to take a vacation.

said Commissioner Cockerell. There
is plenty to do here. 1t is true that

of two apples and glass Of milk, and
this has been his midday diet for

DIDN'T BELIEVE

That Coffee Was the Real Trouble.
Some people founder around and
take everything that's recommended
but finally find that coffee is the real
cause of their troubles. An Oregon
man says:
For 25 years I was troubled with
my. stomach. | was a steady coffee
drinker, but didn't suspect that as
the cause. l took almost anything
which some one else had been cured
with but to no good. I was very bad
last summer and could not work at
times.
"On Dec 2, 1902, / was taken SO
bad the doctor said l could not live
over "a hours at the most, and |
made all preparations to die I could
hardly eat anything, everything dis
tressed me. and I was weak and sick
all over. When in that condition cot
fee was abandoned and l was put on
Postum; the change in my feelings
came quickly after the drink that was
poisoning me was removed.
1.-THE pain and sickness fell away
from me and l began to get we'll day
by day, so I stuck to it until now I
am well and strong again, can eat
heartily, with no headache, heart
trouble or the awful sickness of the
old coffee days. I drink all wish of
Postum without any harm and enjoy
it immensely.
This seems like a strong story.

Nothing Succeeds Like "EGG-O-SEE."
The man who breaches the best ser
mon; the man who tells the funnjes
stories; the man who keeps the bes
store; or the man who makes the bes,
goods soon finds that people come to
him. Merit is the best advertisement
In the world. People speak well OF
things they know are good. They pass
the good word along.
The best breakfast food is EGG-O
SEE, for it contains all the life-giving
properties of natures best food, which
Is wheat.
EGG-O-SEE is deeply in debt to the
thousands of wives and mothers who
use it in their homes, for these good
women tell their neighbors about this
great food.
Children and aged persons alike are
friends of EGG-O-SEE.
Merit and common sense are the
things that advertise EGG-O-SEE
most. EGG-O-SEE is cheap. A 10
cent package contains ten liberal
breakfasts. EGG O-SEE is sold every
where. Grocers must keep it if they
want to keep their good customers,
for good customers insist on buying

The fact that no preparation, no
cooking is required, makes EGG-O-
SEE very popular. Open the package;
put as much as you like in a dish;
pour on milk or cream and eat. 1t

Extinguisher Only Designed for Earth
ly Use.

y SSSs
Years ago, while Rev. Mr.. Standa-
loupe was student at the seminary,
he undertook, one vacation season, to
sell fire extinguishers.
His pleasing address and affability
enabled him to make many sales
However, he encountered the usual
rebuffs which are the experience of all
agents.
The theological student had gained
access into the office of surly broker,
and forthwith began expatiating on
the deluging powers of his incom-
parable fire extinguisher.
''To hell with it," roared the broker,
fendishly.
"Oh, my dear man." expostulated
Standaloupe, this extinguisher does
not deserve the extreme virtue with
which you credit it." -Harper's Week.

WRITER'S TOUR SWEDEN
A New "Entente Cordial" Is the Re-
suit.


suit.
AS one of the delegates of the Swed-
ish Press club / have accompanied a
party of twenty British journalists on
a journey through Sweden, which they
had undertaken on the invitation and
as the guests of the Swedish Press
club, an organization which embraces
the whole press of Sweden
1t had long been felt that a closer
contact between the Swedish and the
British press was wanted. At the In
ternational Congress of Journalists,
1897, when the press of almost all CIV
ilized countries met in Stockholm,
Great Britain and Ireland was not rep
resented Since then there has not
been any opportunity for the Swedish
journalists to meet their British col
leagues. Late last year, however, a
proposal was made in the Press club
in Stockholm to send an invitation to
limited number of prominent Eng
lish journalists to visit Sweden dur
ing this summer This was carried
unanimously, and in April a delegate
was sent over to London with a notf1-
cial invitation, which was accepted by
nine leading London dailies and seven
prominent provincial papers, as well
as from three Irish and one Scotch.
All these papers were represented by
the most prominent men of their staff;
in some cases the chief editors came
themselves. AS the connecting link
between the Swedish Press club and
the British press the British Institute
of Journalists acted the president of
which institution, Maj. G. F. Graf
wicl1t, also joined the party.
Of course King Oscar received tile
British newspaper men and showed
them round the royal palace. Every
interesting point in the country was
visited by our guests.
From the beginning to the end it
can be said that the tour was one of
the most successful that could be inn
agined The best fellowship was
reigning the whole time between not
only the Swedish journalists and their
English colleagues, but between the
whole Swedish nation and our Eng
lish guests. Our country and its insti-
buttons were revelation to the Brit
ons. Scarcely any of them had any
idea that We were SO up-to-date in
everything, in several things even
ahead of the mighty island empire
They were greatly taken by the kind
illness of the population. / will give
you an instance which struck us
forcibly. While we were travelin. on
the canal steamer some small bare
footed urchins of the poorest class ran
along the canal bank and offered some
wild flowers to one of the Englishmen.
He took them and wanted to give the
boys some money, but they refused.
They could not take anything from
one who was the guest of the coun-
try.
Already the descriptions of the tour
have begun to appear in the English
press, and I dare say that this opening
up of a new entente cordial will be
of great Importance not only to Swed-
en-, but also in certain degree to
Great Britain and Ireland, who thus
will become more intimately acquaint-
ed with a country and a nation of
whose resources and qualities they
have been deplorably ignorant.-Hugo
Vallentin in Minneapolis Journal.

Thumb Prints in the Army.

The navy is to follow the army in
adopting the Gallon system of identi-
fication by thumb prints, although, to
avoid irritation among the men, it will
be applied only to new recruits. For
while the measure may be plausibly
explained as taken for the purpose OF
identifying the dead and wounded,
every one knows that its chief value
is in capturing deserters. Of course
as the men re-enlist they will come
under the new regulation, but this is
not quite the same thing.
