The devout of all lands have their
own particular way OF giving outward
demonstration TO their piety. In Rus
STA it frequently takes the form OF
wearing miniature Bibles as charms
on the watch chain. They are got up
in attractive form about an inch
square and three-eighths of an inch
in thickness. and they contain five
books of Moses. The text of the book
is in Hebrew and the titles in Latin.

NORWAY.

To understand Norway's position
during the war it Is necessary to re-
member the prominent part that the
countTys merchant navy is playing in
It's economic life. In 1918 the total
of freights carried by Norway's ships
in foreign trade was about $5S, 563. 600,
while the total value of all crops was
100000 600. The freights for 1915
amount to at least four times as much
as those OF normal times. and the pro
ceeds of the fisheries probably to more
than twice as much as for 1918. Pro
English sentiment in Norway is rap
idly waning, because of the difficulties
placed in the way of obtaining goods
from other countries, especially from
the United State3 But it is not Eng
land alone that is imposing these
bonds, for Germany seems TO be doing
what she can, having, for instance. re-
peatedly captured neutral ships on
their way from one of the Scandina-
Wan countries to another And the
losses suffered by this country from
submarine warfare are heavy. With
in a little more than a week three
Norwegian ships-the Silus, the Lar
CELL and the Kannik-have been toll
pedoed by German submarines while
lying peacefully at anchor, no notice
being given in any Of the cases.
Christiania now has a population of
253 900. The increase for the past

Miss Gina Krog is dead. In 1884
she wrote newspaper article about
woman's rights, and since that time
she was one Of the leading women of
the country. She was also the first
woman to occupy a seat in the stor-
thing. The expenses of her funeral
were paid by the state Many of the
foremost men of the country were
present at the funeral. Rev. Eugene
Hanson made the funeral sermon,
saying in part: Being among those
who are to place the first memorial
wreatfs on the bier, / wish to recall
the significance of the work o. Gina
krog. There was a combat around the
ideas that she wished to advance.
which is always the case when life
has its sacred moments of birth. The
idea that sustained her, the power
that carried her to the goal, was the
sense of the right OF the capacities
and forces of life to have place in
the great work of the commonweal.
The struggle for this inviolable right
of life itself was the sacred fire which
made out of her the idealist which
she was. The emancipation which
she assisted in creating for woman
herself and for society has given to
this gift of priceless boon of spir-
itual power We bow in reverence to
her who sacrificed her life for the
liberation of the many. But human
being is always greater than what he
or she does. And what Gina Krog
herself was, that is the great thing
which towers all-eclipsing when ] re-
call her to memory. 1t is the sacred
and inspiring remembrance which she
has bequeathed to u.s."

Denmark. which took the lead In the
building of this class of seagoing YES
sci when it successfully completed the
Selandia a few years ago. Since that
time a great increase has been
brought about in the size of motor
ships. The Seiandia was 375 feet in
length, had engines of $500 horse
power and displaced 1000 tons. At
present one yard alone is engaged on
the construction of number of motor
vessels, each of which is to displace
$4,000 tons, to be 500 feet in length
and to have motors of 5000 horse
power. The same firm has orders for
so motor ships and its slips will be
fully occupied with them until the end
of 1921.
