Viking ship will sail from its moorings
at Holhel on Uike Washington and take
the Alasktt-Yukon-raciflc Kxptsilion
on Norwegian Day, Augnst 30.
The Viking has already been launched
and it presents a novel appearance. It is
patterned after the Viking ship which
as unearthed a number of years go
Irom the King's mound at Gokstad. The
hip will carry a king and the crew will
be dressed ill the costumes of ihe anci
ent Norseman, who were the most
dauntless sailors of ancient times.
This is but one of .the many novel
features which the Norwegians have
a raii.-ed fur ilieir day at tlie i'uir. The
paiade thr.-Uiih the ground with over
a thoii-niid iie-iple, dieted in the cos
tumes of lb- vatiins periods of Nor
cegiati h'g'ory, and fourteen historical
and mj tliological floatf.

To Make Ileus Lay More Kggs.
Tlie hen is r.n iniiiarent. creature of
limited understanding and fixed habits.
It has always been a puzzle why l ens
invariably cross tlm road in front of
rapidiy-nioving vehicles, ai d eonic peo
ple have reflected ibt the ben may be
displaying the same degree ul sense in
her habit of laying only one etig a day
when she might just ai well lay two.
and the world would be glad to have
the doubled supply.
It is contended that the hen carries an
ample supply of embryo egnsand could
easily do laMter i! it were not for tlie
loice of habit. The problem ii to break
the old habit and to aid the hen in form
ing a less stingy one.
The Philadelphia ltecord is authority
for the statement that the farmers of
Iliiigtown, Pa., are planning to try aj
novel scientific experiment on their
hens, with the objec; of fooling them
into laying two or three eggs a day.'
THE SHIPWRECKER.
His Life Mads Up of Hardthip, Ad
vntur and Accident.
The career of tho shlpwrecker con
shsta of a scries of hardships and ad
ventures and accidents nnd narrow es
capes from the first day he culists
with a big wrecking company up to
the time he Is brought ashore from
the grim ship he calls "home" crippled
or fatally Injured. Of all the profes
sions that demand heavy toll of hu
mau llfo uune, not even mining or
powder making, Is as dnupcrous as
tho one of these wreckers. Every year
these darlug men, who brave storm and
wave nnd tempest to save the stranded
liner, to raise the suuken ocean grey
hound, to rescue the ship Impaled upon
rocks and. If nothing else, to salve
what valuable cargo may be removed
from helpless wrecks, meet death by
thc score. Many of them, exposed of
ten for days aud nights to the icy
blasts of winter sens, to driving bliz
zards and to drenching storms that
blto to the marrow, succumb to pneu
monia. Others at work on the pitch
lug, tossing barges have legs or arms
shattered during tho risky operations
of removing masts or of slinging
wrecking pumps or other castings that
weigh tous. Others have hands or
feet so dreadfully frozen that these
must be amputated, aud still others
uro wiped out of existence after suf
fering hours of untold agony aud ex
posure before the eyes of their helpless
comrades. Appletou's Magazine.
