Cheap Living In Norway.

1T l., II good schrtne," said q rich
man, ito spend the summer in Norway.
The Norwegian climate is superb, the
scenery is grand and the living Is
cleup-a dollar a day ut the hotels and
carriages at n hale dollar u day. One
fine thing about Norway Is that in the
summer the night only lasts couple
of hours. ana if you so as far as the
North cape there is no night ut all,
but the sun circles round and round
the horizon and never sinks below.
The Norwegian rivers abound in fish,
and any one Is free to angle for trout
in them. The salmon rivers, though.
are strictly preserved. Some of the
salmon rivers are very fine and rent
for as much as $4,000 year. l know
a man who has river only two miles
long that he pays $500 for. He often
gets fish sixty or seventy pounds. The
day l called on him his wife came in
with a forty FOUNDER, a twenty-five
FOUNDER and fifty-one FOUNDER that
she had caught herself within three
hours"

A Forest Of Gianta

1t Is almost impossible for one who
has seen only the eastern or Rocky
mountain forests to imagine the woods
of the Pacific coast. Pictures Of the
big trees are as common as postage
stamps, but the most wonderful thing
about the big trees Is that they are
scarcely bigger than the rest of the for
est. The Pacific coast bears only a
tenth Of our woodland, but nearly half
of our timber. An average acre In the
Rocky mountain forest yields one to
two thousand board feet Of lumber; in
the southern forest, three to four thou
sand; in the northern forest, four to
six thousand. An average acre on the
Pacific coast yields fifteen to twenty
thousand. Telescope the southern and
Rocky mountain forests, toss the north
ern on top Of them and stuff the CEN
trail into the chinks, and. acre for acre,
the Pacific forest will outweigh them
all.-American Magazine.

UNCLE SANS NAVY.
The Attractions 1t Now ORers e
Bright Young Men.


The new law opening to the sailors
the avenues of promotion to the COM
missioned ranks will have n tendency
to attract the better class Of our youth
who are ambitious and whose circum-
stances have barred them from oppor-
tunties for advancement in other d.
rectiOns. In 1901 congress authorized
the secretary of the navy to commits
sion each year twelve sailors as war
rant officers. TO receive this promotion
a sailor must be less than thirty years
old, must have been In the service
seven years, served one year as first
class petty officer and pass an examina-
ton upon the theoretical part Of his
calling. This latter requirement rem
ders it necessary for him to devote his
spare time to study. II he succeeds In
this test he Is given a tentative ap-
pointment as gunner, boatswain, car
penter or warrant machinist, and this
duty being satisfactorily performed for
one year he becomes a warrant officer
at $1,000 per year sea pay, with an In
crease Of 500 each year for three
years. The fourth year his salary Is
81 600 and after twelve years service
reaches $500. At sixty-two years of
age he Is retired ON three-fourths pay
for life.
Those whose ambition reaches be-
You'd the warrant officer can have 1t
satisfied through faithful and intelli-
gent attention to duty, as, after four
years service in that capacity, the as
pirant Is eligible to commission II
recommended by his commanding off,
Ger and upon passing another examine
ton. A bright and studious young
man entering the navy as sailor at
seventeen may in twelve or fifteen
years become a commissioned officer
and retire at sixty-two with the rank
Of captain.-Joseph jenkins In Leslie's

AND THEN HE SKINNED OUT
Bought the Tiger Skin, But It Was
Still on the Advancing
Animal.

When it became known that the best
shot in the regiment was going into
the jungle to compass the deatn of a
terrible tiger, the surgeon major OF toe
regiment, an enthusiastic curiO collec-
tor. at once buttonholed him, relates
the New York Telegraph.
Remember, Atkins" said he, Il be-
speak the skin at your own price"
"All right, sir" SAID Atkins.
The surgeon major was netting but
terfiies on the outskirts Of the jungle
that evening, when he saw Atkins run
ming toward him.
"Shot him?" shouted the surgeon
major.
Eyes, sir!" breathlessly replied the
flying Nimrod.
How much for the skim"
Five dollars, sir!"
The doctor gave Atkins the money.
where's the skim" he cried.
Behind you, sir!" came the recedini
answer.
The doctor looked, and saw the skin
with the tiger in it, coming open
mouthed and bleeding from a scratch
where Atkins had "shot" it. The doc
tor didn't get the tigers skin. but tn
tiger nearly got the doctors.

Climate and Consumption.

We are to-day learning the truth
that there is no particular climate for
consumption. Wherever can be found
pure air-the less moisture in 1t the
better-there will the sufferer from
tuberculosis be able to fight his disease
sometimes to a successful finish-f
he can at the same time obtain the
proper rest and food. Two generations
ago, says a writer in the Reader, this
doctrine would have been hooted at as
the delusion of mailman, yet 1t is the
truth. The mountain sanatoria OIL
Switzerland, the pine woods OF Pru'-
sia, of Canada and of New York, the
ice fields of Alaska bear witness to II.
tuberculosis is stopped by the pure air
of all these varied climates; and 1t has
been accident far more than design,
experience far more than theory, that
found this out. One generation ago
the whole southwest would have been
at the north with the picturesque
bowie or Colt, had anyone dared open
ly to assert, much less to insist on
such a pernicious doctrine, but to-day
those who are seriously studying inc
facts feel compelled to acknowledge
the truth of it, while the advocates oil
climate per Sc are beginning to gay
may, are eager to have us under
stand-that their climate is not every
thing; that it won't work miracles, ana
that there are some cases OF consump-
ton that their glorious climate VIII
not cure; and-what change!-tnere
are to be heard protests, here feeoie'
there vigorous, against the unhappy
habit long ago planted by the south
west, now firmly rooted in the north
and east, of sending all sorts and con-
ditions Of tuberculous patients by tens
by thousands, by tens Of thousands
into that climate to be cured.

indicate that the workers OF the coun-

President Schurman has drawn gen.

deeds of some once trusted men who
managed certain insurance companies
have Mortified him. and he argues that
most men are no better than the get

There is still enough integrity left In
