As a matter of fact the fjords of Norway stand practi- cally alone among the various types of a!l natural phenomena. Extending in-| ward from the sea in some instances for more than a hundred fniles between al- most perpendicular walls of solid granite and often so narrow that two small ships can scarcely pass, these winding ribbons of dzure blue present at every turn nature scapes as marvellous and charm-! ing as ever delighted the vision of man. {he Norwegian coast from north to scuth exclusive of the fjords measures something like twelve hundred miles in length, but if we follow inland each fjord on the one side to its head and cout to the sea again on the other side lthis distance will total an aggregate of {more than twelve thousand miles. It 8s {will therefore be seen that the fjord coasts are more than twelve times as 'great as the sea coast proper, | Cruising Through the Fjords.

Of course none but the smaller boats caw wind their tortuous way through these picturesque passages. For days at a time our steam yacht "Kong Harald" scarcely poked her nose out at sea at ali. Only while sailing around the seg- ments separating the entrances to the fjords, did we occasionally get a remind- er of the restless ocean. But even here the island guard. insured absolutely smooth waters at all times. I mention this for the consolation of those who loathe the sea and its upsetting humors for one can cruise from Stavanger to the North Cape in fair weather or foul and never miss a meal.

They tare beautiful animals, these deer, and furnish the sole subsistence and support ot the Lapps. Their milk and flesh sup- pl: the food, their skins the shoes and clothing, their horns and hoofs the spoons, knives and forks. Though semi- domesticated, still at each milking the doe must be lassoed and held. This process has been going on for centuries and yet the reindeer has never willingly consented to this domestic life. i The Lapp women dress in very much ithe same costume as do the men--leg- igings of reindeer skin, a coat of the {same material and a cap usually decor- tated with some foreign fabric of blue jand yellow. Summer and wirter the jclothing in amount and kind is practi- ically the same and I wondered how they could endure these heavy suits of skin at this season when alight overcoat was {a'l that even we of the warmer climates lat this time needed. i Proverbially Dirty People. | {reputation was fully sustained by my (personal observation and a bath would iso change their identity that the mem- itroductions. tried to keep to the windward of every Lapp. aces, are-the remnant of that Asiatic de that partially swept over Europe in {the early centuries but which in later {years was for the most part driven back gain to its original source. These deso- late wastes of the extreme North, how jever, were not visited by the retrie ' armies of Europe and so it transpired jthat these aliens here remained undis- turbed. Even to-day the 'oriental origin of the Lapps may be traced in feature and stature, the former often Mongolian in type and the latter short and below the European average. | The Lapps are nomadic and wander out over these barren mountains caus and tend their flocks of rein- deer.

Again' we embark and the charms of the fjords become, as we near the north- ernmost city in the world, a beautiful {memory. We reach Hammerfest at {Just twelve o'clock, midnight. And here we experienced what was almost a shock though we knew beforehand what to expect. Since leaving the region of the white nights in the south the noc- turnal element grew less and less pro- nounced with each succeeding twenty- four hours. So gradual had this change heen wrought, however, that it had crept on unawares. As in the case of the seasons, winter vanishes so noise lessly that one morning we are awaken- ed by the song of the first robin and we rub our eyes in astonishment because of the presence of spring. And so with time, silently the years-pass by till one day we awaken with a pang to the fact that our youth has gone, and we have taken our places among the ranks of the middle aged. It wag so at Hammerfest. The glorious glow of the white night had faded like the.damask from the rose. We now stood on deck in the garish light of day, and--it was midnight! 1 tshall never forget that eerie sensation The dock was lined with the village folk who listlessly watched the anchoring of the ship. No lights shone forth from the village houses, no nocturnal stillness brooded over the huts of the fishermen Far up the. mountain side back of the town I sawplainly -a-dozen goats brows- ing about the barren rocks, and yet the ship's bells rang out the hour of mid- night. 1 looked" at my watch and both hands pointed at twglve. Was nature playing us a trick? No suggestion of night existed and yet we must sleep So, still obsessed with the conviction that it was all a huge joke, we half re- luctantly went down to our staterooms and thgre in the semi-gloom of drawn curtains and covered windows, we final- ly fell asleep in this make-believe night SIGEL ROUSH. WHEN IS A MAN OLD? History's Most Remarkable Men Over y Fifty. New York Mail. Is man at his best between 60 and 70? A hundred men, the foremost of the race, as shown by their achievements, were selected. The utmost scrutiny was exercised by the, judges, and the list winnowed down to the hundred grains Al! big grains. The greatest battle, picture, book, statecraft, or whatever each one's line of protinction, was then traced to the de- cade in the actor's life. The astounding figures are that the ten years between sixty and seventy produced thirty-five per cent. of the world's greatest achieve- ments by hér greatest men. Between fifty and sixty are found twenty-five per cent. of the master deeds. But the ¢ between seventy -and eighty appears most as fruitful, being per cent. of great acts. 1f we are to believe Dr. William A. X. Dorland, the compiler of these statis- tics, sixty-four per cent. of the most re- markable things doneeby the hundred of the most remarkable men of all history were the product of their lives aller they were fifty years old: "The Age po Dh Virility" is a book of interest. This is cheerful reading. We are 3ll looking forward to at least eighty years. That our best results should be after we are fifty is good news. se But there are two or three ifs in the way.
