A Museum Full of Curious Reminders of the 'Old Baltic League. But one of the most entertaining places was the Hanseatio house, or mu- seum, which stands in the Finnegaard, onthe Tydskebrygge. It is the last re- maininghabitation occupied by that no- torious ring of German traders who set- tled down in Bergen, Norway, in the fourteenth century and monopolized its _ commerce for some 200 or 800 years, until its power was finally broken in the eighteenth century. All the other houses have been burned or otherwise destroyed, and this was the only one' left standing. We climbed up to a room in the sec- ond story, about 8 by 15 feet square, and here were shown a large number of . curious articles formerly used by these old merchants. There were scales and weights, the latter being of two sorts— one for buying and one for selling— clocks, lanterns, candlesticks, snutf- boxes, washing bowls, drinking cups and tankards,’ machines for chopping cabbage and staves with bags for mak- ing collections in church. We were also shown lamps that were fed with cod liver oil, not. then used for medicinal purposes; decorations made of strips of dried codfish, and the arms of the league —-half an eagle and half a cod, the lat- ter surmounted by a crown which sug— gested the origin of the term “codfish aristocracy.” Then, through a dark, rickety stair- way, we continued our climb to the third story and were shown the mer- chants’ business oflice and the apart- ments for the clerks and bedrooms for .all. These last were the most- curious of the whole suit,f01" the beds are con- structed like the berths of a ship are closed on one side with hinged or" slid- ing doors, while on the other shutters open to a passage beyond to enable the female domestics to make the beds ' without entering the men’s rooms. The Hanseatic community was supposed to be "strictly celibate in order to prevent its members from intermarrying with Norwegians, and thus allowing the na- tives to obtain a share of the monopo- lized trade. —Boston Transcript. A‘Dwarf Takes Second Growth. Sir Geoffrey Hudson, the celebrated English dwarf of the seventeenth cen- tury, was doubtless the most widely known human curiosity of his time. He was born of parents of the normal size at Rutlandshire in 1619. At. birth he weighed less than a pound and a half, 3 and was only 8 inches in length. He did not begin to walk until after the end of his third year, his height at that time being less than afoot. At the end of his seventh year he was taken into the'fam- ily of the Duke of Buckingham, having between the ages of 3 and 7 years added but four inches to his stature. With Buckingham he lived until 30 years‘old, at which time he was only 18 inches in' height when equipped in fashionable high heeled shoes. At the age of 30, however, a remark- able change came over the midget, and for the next five years his growth was. as remarkable for its rapidity as it had previously been for its backwardness.i At the age of 30 his height had been' scant 1%‘feet. At 35 it was 3 feet and 9 inches! ow or why this remarkable change we brought about was a ques- tion too deep for the Society of Royal Surgeons, who, time and again, discuss-f ed the phenomenon without arriving at any satisfactory conclusions. Hudson‘ lived to be.63,which is three timesi'the‘ average length of life among giants.— St. Louis Republic. Proved It. Fortune Teller—You may in time make a good income, but you‘will never be rich.
