THIS is MY SIND BIRTHDAY"

Knut Hamsun. one of Norway's fore
most living writer's, was born August
4, 1859 in the parish OF LON, I'm Gud-
brandsdalen, Norway. His parents
were plain peasant people and his
early opportunities To obtain an edu-
cation We're OF a most meagre de-
scription. He was apprenticed TO learn
the shoemaker's trade. but he soon ran
away and became in turn dock lab
orer, a private tutor and n court mes
senger lie next took to travel and
became n stonecutter, woodman and
a road laborer. Arrived i'm Christiania.
he devoted himself to study for time,
hut again the desire to travel over
came him and he emigrated to Amer
lea. on this side he became in n turn
n farm hand I'm Dakota, n street car
conductor i'm Chicago and a lecturer I'm
Minneapolis. He went next to New
where he worked on the
lonely fishing banks for several years.
When he finally returned to his native
land il was to devote himself to liter
allure by putting some of his many in
experiences into charming
stories. From the first he met with
much success. lie is the author of
more than twenty books, novels and
plays, many OF which have been trans
lated into numerous languages.

woRklNeMAN.s COMPENSATION

Massachusetts has enacted a work
ingmen's compensation act which has
been approved by the supreme court
OF that state. The law contains a
provision whereby If an employee is
injured and sues for damages the
employer cannot set mp as a defense
the fact that the victim suffered from
his own negligence or that Of a fell
low workman. At first thought this
seems a severe provision placing a
burden on employers with which they
should not be fairly charged II should
be kept i'm mind. however that the
theory of the workngmen's compen-
.sation scheme is that the cost of pro-
viding for men injured at their daily
tasks is to be borne by an increase in
tho cost OF production, rather than by
the employer.
The Michigan commission investi-
eating this subject is endeavoring to
ascertain the annual expense of the
settlement of damage cases for injur-
les incurred by workingmen in their
daily employment.
1t is expected to show that the
expense is large enough to prove that
the proposed system would be cheap
or than the present one whereby most
of the settlements of these cases is
only made after a trial at law. and |
that the compensation system could |

employer than defending suits. while |

turn than if he won in court. The
question is one Of the most important !

During all of his course as n medi-

eager TO find something that would
alleviate pain in surgery, and believed
that somewhere in the universe the
Creator had placed on agency sufficient
FOR the need" writes Rosa =. Chiles in
Munsey's Magazine. In those days
he was fond of experiment, and was
recognized as a man of independent
thought. II was, however, by acct
dent that he finally found the agent for
producing oblivion to pain. His genius
lay i'm applying the accident TO the need
which appealed to his sympathies, and
experiment quickly followed.
Or. Long. when he was about TWEEN
ty-siX years old, inhaled it with other
young people, and at times became un-
comfortable under its influence, fall
ing over objects and bruising himself
quite badly. Feeling no pain at the
time and being unconscious of injury
until afterward. it occurred to him
that the safe agency for painless sur

Would Restore Confidence.

In closing, he uttered the following ad-
monitions:
In attempting to rid ourselves of the
evils that were growing in business so as
to put dangerous power into the hands of
concentrated wealth. we had to do many
things that savored of hostility to capital
al least to the capital which was engaged
in those things that it was thought neces-
sary to enact statutes to condemn. | am
no defender of those evils. On the con-
trary, | have been as strongly in favor of
their suppression by statutes made ef-
fective as any one, but l think We have
arrived at a time when the people them
celveS ought to acquire sufficient percep-
ton into the operation of economic forces
to realize that sectional prejudice lead
ing to legislation against the interests of
one part Of the country will as certainly
rebound to the detriment of another as
night will follow day. We are in the
same boat. We are all tossed by the
same waves.
Business is halting now. There is
doubt and distrUst among investors. due
to fear of blind enmity toward success
full enterprise. What is the remedy? 1t is
the restoration of confidence between the
classes Of persons who have been oppos-
ing each other in times past, who now.
after the reforms are initiated and are
in process of being effected, ought to
come together in amity and make the
best use of the enormous resources We
have in this country for the promotion of
general prosperity and the securing and
encoura cement of individual happiness"
