Carlotta, with her almost uncanny to tell me you are mistress here, and intuition, divined his thoughts though it would have been kinder if "I know what is at the back of all you had told me yourself at the lie-' that, Graham, but I know that my ginning I believe I am forgiven for husband is coming back soon why, my importunity.

A NORWEGIAN'S OPINION OF CANADA Andoiu Jaarstad, a prominent b•usi- ness man of Stavanger, Norway, the city of sardines, kippers • and cheese, has returned home to Norway from an extended busbieas trip to Canada and the Urfted States. In arfieles contributed to the - local press he speaks enthusiastically ofthe great agricultural opportunities of the Do- minion where he hopes thousands of Norwewgian Emigrants will find their future hones. Stavanger, Mr, Jaaa- rtad's home city, has played an impor- tant part in the history of .Norwegian' emigration, as it. was from its harbor the "Restaurationen" set sail for New York one hundred years ago, M cem- memoration of which event hundreds of thousands of Norwegiana gathered. at 'Minneapolfsrecoutly to celebrate the centennial of Norwegian emigra- tion. „. Emigration from Norway has, dar- ing the last fifty years, averaged about 14,004 annually. Under the new U.S. quota regulations the total emigration to the United States will, as far as Norway is concerned, be restricted to some -two thousand, beginning July 1, 1927. " "This condition of affairs," Mr. Jaarstad says, "has coused intending emigrants to look to Other countries where they may hope to find oppor- tunities equal to those offered in the U.S.A, in previous years•." "Suoh a country i& Canada," says Mr. Jaarstad. "Canada is yet on the threshold of its development. It is a country of great agricultural Possi- bilities and with undeveloped natural resources, which offer rich reward to those who have the will to work. "Unfortunately,vCanada is not. as well known in Norway as, its great neighbor to the South," says the writer. "During the Iast few .months the press• has given publicity to de- famatory articles, which our country- men in Canada brand as deliberate in- sult to them and the country of their adoption, articles which are mislead- } Ing and written with they view. of frightening intending ,emigrants."

One -of tree domestic institutions at Balmoral in which the King and Queen take particular pride is the model home dairy that supplies the Royal table with everything in the way of milk, cream, butter, and cheese. Run on the most up-to-date lines, the dairy is a miracle of hygiene, and is in the charge of a woman graduate of Aberdeen University. The King takes a deep interest in alI. matters connected with agricul- ture, and the flourishing condition of the Royal farm on the Balmoral estate is largely clue to his foresight. Queen Alexandra also has a minia- ture cdairy. at Sandringham, in which at one time she used to spend some of the happiest hours of her life. Exteriorly designed on the lines of a Swiss cottage, the dairy inside fol- lows exactly the plan -..of the "Trifol- lum, the largest dairy in Denmark. He Forgot Something.

At three o'clock in the morning a loud ringing of the front -door bell of tb:e girl's abode was heard. Her fath- er, roused from slumber, went to a window and; sticking out his head, in- quired who was there.

Jaarstad callsattention to the fact that in the five year period pre- ceeding . the war there wee quite a movement of Scandinavian emigrants to Canada. This direct emigration, was, however, small in comparison with the emigration of Scandinavians from the States, to the Prairie Pro- vinces of Canada. Thousands. of Nor- wegian -Americans, pioneers and their sons, changed their domicile from the inferior soil." Gives Much Authentic information. Mr. Jaarstad devotes considerable spa'c`e to geographical and statistical information about eCanada, its agri- cultural and commercial progress dur- ing the last twenty years. In oonclu- sion he says: "Canada stands ods the, threshold;of its development: Only a fraction of its natural resources are developed. Onlnr the surfaoe has been scratched, r'r it were.
