Herctoforo only thoso women could vote who paid certain income taxes' in $100 worth of property in towns and $75 in tho country. . Tho now legislation will become! effective at tho next election and will inereaso tho present women electors from 270,000 to 500,000. The odelsthing shapes legislation in Norway. It is only ono branch of iho storthing, but it controls both bodies. In Norway tho national assembly, tho storthing, divides itself for law making purposes. Three-quarters of tho members sit in the odelsthing, tho other quarter in tho lagthing. When tho two houses disagreo on any measure tho storthing sits as one body and naturally the odelsthing has its way. VfSPPB ViBL 0JB f BIk MapppppH pppjvXn ' CV9MR CHAS. D.
