The Famous Chair of Sedan.

We returned by the Donchery road.
and. walking along at random, found
ourselves in front of the house where
Napoleon III, and Bismarck held their
interview on the morning of September
2. This house. generally known as the
weaver's dwelling, though nobody
knows why, is the property of two
brothers named Fournaise, who are not
and never were weavers. 1t will be
for all future time a historic spot:
hence, the weaver legend should be dis
sipated. The room in which these two
famous personages met is at present a
point of pilgrimage for tourists of all
countr.es; and there is not an eXcur-
s:onist who does not seat himself
proudly on the chair which the French
Emperor and German Chancellor used.
1t is almost needless to add that the
chair manufacturing industry is in full
prosperity in the vicinity, and that the
business is brisk in supplying 1.-THE
ident cal chair on which Napoleon and
Bismarck sal" 10 foreigners, especially
as every English tourist insists on buy
ing the relic and carrying it away with
him. The thousands OF reproductions
of this chair will soon be as numerous
as Voltaire's walking-stick or the
famous nail in the wall of the Waterloo
tavern-keeper, on which Napoleon
hung his hat, and which the old auber-
giste presented to every English visitor.

A Travellers Description of a Guatemaian
Hotel.
As preliminary to the start we must
have breakfast, so proceeded to the hotet'

with a low-caste Guatemalan; but it was
not a success in a high-art ems al
though a pre-Raphaelite might have
found an embarrds de richesse in the
s.realism'' of the surroundings and adj
iuncts. Everything was du ndturel to
the farthest possible limit in the way of
disorder, dirt and disregard of the pro-
p~rieties of a s'house of entertainment"
The floor of the ''dining-room" was lit
tered with dead insects; great cock
reaches travelled up and down the wall,
m~ysteriously active; all manner of flies
swarmed in the air and over the filthy
linen of the table, with its broken crock
ery that evidently had not been washed
for a month; at the table-legs were tied
with rawhide strings two game cocks,
which sought necessarily to get at each
other; in and out of the room ran pigs
and chickens, while parrots stalked
around making the air hideous with
their croaks and cries.
But, despite all this, we really did en-
joy this our first meal in Guatemala.

fashion, was the best I ever drank,
Then, for the first time, I knew wha1

by a new kind of enterprise, in which
the policy-holders are divided into
classes of five hundred members each.
Whenever a birth occurs in the family
of a member the other members in the
class are assessed twenty-five cents
each. This would give a fund of $125,
800 of which goes to the beneficiary
and 1926 to the company for collecting,
