home. But it isn't always a question
of taste. Ones pocketbook must be
considered first.
: How often you have-had to content
yourself with rugs whose chief virtue
was their inexpensiveness! And how
hard it has been to shut your eyes to
their flaws of color, design andiquality!
Such a compromise with good taste
is quite unnecessary. You can have
really lovely rugs without being the
least bit extravagant. Kimlark Rugs
are amazingly. inexpensive. And they
are beautiful as you thought only the
highest priced rug could be.

PROPOSE CHANGING NAME
OF CAPITAL OF NORWAY
Effort to Substitute Name of
Oslo for Christiania

"a proposal to change the name
of Norway's capital from Christiania
to Oslo directs attention to one of
the most modern of European cities
which, however, is a sort of Scandi-
navian Luxor" say a bulletin from
the National Geographic Society.
"Christiania is businesslike, clean
and new. The %antiquary might pass
it by. after a casual inspection, were

scum There two Viking ships carry
him back to the ninth century.
The Vikings, like the Egyptians,

as their burial place, and around
the body they would place numerous
arms, ornaments and utensils. Near
by, domestic animals sometimes were

when one notes on a map that
Christiania is in the latitude of Hud-

to jump to a wrong notion of the

weather is balmy. "A sail for sixty

rebuilt 1t on the opposite bank of
the river and 1t then acquired Its
present name. A suburb still bears
the name of Oslo; thus the change
is comparable to New York's taking
the name of Yonkers, or our own
capital deciding to name itself
Georgetown.
1.-THE population of Christiania is
nearly 900, 000. which Is about a
tenth of the population of Norway
a fact which has worried Norwegian
economists. Recent developments
of water-power, which is Natures
supreme gift to Norway. have gone
far to decentralize the country's in
dustrial activity.
"One of the pleasing impressions
left upon the visitor by a visit to
Christiania is the excellent taste and
great courtesy of the people. The
former is exemplifed by their per-
sonal adornment, especially by their
jewelry. Norwegian enamel, of lus-
trous blue, mauve and pink tints, is
famous. The second trait is shown
by the custom which requires men
to remove their hats, even when
they enter a shop. Food Is esteem
ed highly. especially in m bleak
winter months and while the Gus
tom of eating six meals a day which
has been attributed to Norwegian
farms does not prevail in Chris

I'm the winter the surrounding
hills afford infinite opportunity for

are dear to the Norwegian heart.
1.-The Norwegian respect for art,
music and literature is akin to that
of our own New England; and, in
winter. the National Theater's Opera
season is a community, rather than
a social enterprise. An event which

August season of Ibsen and Born

THE man who said that the sew-
ing machine has done more to
break down national distinctiveness
than any other invention would find
proof of his assertion on Christiania
