Norway's Strange Bank. The most independent and aristo cratic bank in the world is the Norges, or National Bank of Norway. Sociallythe bank is of con siderable importance. The directors meet twice a week, and these friendly gatherings are aaid to be most enjoyable affairs. Loans and di scounts form the chief subjects of conversation.

No loan or discount can be made without the approval of three of the directors. The directors are to hold a meeting one day, and you want to borrow on Monday. You apply to Norges Bank and are told that the matter will be taken under consideration at the direc tors' meeting on Wednesday, and vou may look for an answer to your application on Thursday. It does not matter in the least that you want the $1,000 Monday, nd not Thursday you simply have to wait. This national bank is also a na tional pawnshop.

It is authorized by law to lend money on any non- perishable goods, provided they can be deposited in the bank and kept under lock and key. For this ser- ice it charges rather less than the usual pawnbroker's interest, which "may, perhaps, account for the rari ty of private pawnshops in Norway. New York Journal.
