BERGEN SHIPPING CENTER.
Norwegian Port Takes On Added I'm
portance During War.

Bergen, Norway, Dec. 2s.-Since
the war began Bergen has taken on
added importance as a shipping cen
ter. It has been a point where neu-
trail ships gathered to be conveyed
through danger zones and all passen-
gers embarked for British and Scot
fish ports. Because of the great in
hux of English speaking tourists in
normal times, English was spoken very
generally in the larger cities and
towns even before the war, but now
nearly all Norwegians speak English.
Foreign refugees from Russia ana
Finland recently have kept all the
resort hotels in the Norwegian noun
tains crowded. Travel has far ex-
ceeded the capacity of the railway be-
tween Christiania and Bergen and the
inns have been unable to accommo-
date the great mass Of refugees VINO
are endeavoring to make their way
across the North sea on the crowded
steamers operated by the British gov
eminent.
In spite of their proximity, Sweden
and Norway are quite unlike. The
former is more military. 1t is fash
toned on German lines. Norway is
more democratic and independent 1t

ARE YOU BOUND FOR THE SCRAP
HEAP?

Let me save you from the scrap
heap!
Doctor, I am not sick, but I don't
feel right" That is what many say
to me when they come to see me the
first time. And that just expresses
it. You are not sicH. enough to go
TO bed. You can eat. you can sleep,
you can work.
But you don't work with the vim
and zest of former days. Your sleep
is not restful, and you don't enjoy
your food as you once did. And your
nerves get the best of you. Things
bother you, ruffle you, that you never
noticed before. You begin to see diff
fculties where there really are none.
Trifes worry you, and not having
enough troubles of your own, you
borrow some.
OF course to a casual observer, you
seem the same, because you are try
ing to control yourself. And II you
should tell a friend, or go to an IN
experienced doctor, they will tell you
you only imagine things; you should
shake it off. You begin to doubt your
self You sometimes think they are
right and try to brace up and be
bright and cheerful. But then your
old feeling will come back with re-
newed vigor. You begin to wonder
if it really is your mind only. And if
it is so, is it the first step to insan-
ity? Anguishing thoughts begin tor
turing you; you are trying your best
to fight them down, to appear happy,
but in vain. You find yourself in
the grip of an invisible power that
seems to sap your life blood
And when you feel your strength
energy and power slipping away from
you, when you find you can't do jus
tice to your work any longer, then
you become respondent and might
even feel tempted to end it all.
You are very much in the same
condition as "a delicately constructed
engine, which has not been cared for
right Put it in the hands of an ex-
perienced man and he will soon have
it in fine working order But trying
your own hand at it, or turn it over
to an unskilled person, and it will
soon be fit for the scrap heap.
