lessor, who detained from eight

otter stopped occasionally. but it was
not because he had forgotten the

FAMOUS LONDON BANK.
Depository for Money That Has
Figured in English Romance
and History.

If Londoners have any real senti-
ment to waste it should rather be
directed toward the approaching
demolition of the time-honored
though frowning and repellent front
age of Coutts' bank. The name of it
conjures up the thoughts of heaps
of gold second only in size and ampli-
tude to those of the Bank of England.
Is not Coutts' the largest private
bank in England, and has it not a
more extensive connection than any
other with the mobility and landed
gentry@ To possess "a snug bank
ing account at Coutts'" has been the
stock synonym for riches with all the
novelists of the nineteenth century,
says the London Telegraph.
Great George our King" opened an
account with the shrewd old Scotch
man who not only founded bank,
but founded a family by marrying
each of his three daughters 10 men
of title. The duke of Wellington
was another of his most famous
clients, and DIR. Johnson and Sir Wal
ter Scott banked their moneys in his
keeping. The history of such an in
stitution, could it ever be written,
would be far more interesting than
any romance.
1t is understood that the building
will not be wholly destroyed, and the
most notable features of the interior
will, of course, be preserved. These
include costly marble chimney pieces
of the fiorid Cipriani school and a
valuable collection of portraits of the
friends of the founder Of the bank.
while the dining-room is described
as being hung with Chinese subjects
on papers which were sent 20 Mr..
Coutts by Lord Mccartney while on
his embassy to China in 1925"

NEW WAY TO CLOSE WOUNDS.
An Invention That Causes No Pain
and Performs the Work
ExpeditlousIy.

A novel and most useful instrument
has been invented by DIR. Paul Michel,
a well-known French physician. With
t wounds on a body can be stitched
effectively, quickly and without caus-
ing any pain to the patient. Hereto
fore wounds were stitched by hand,
and this operation was not only some
what dangerous and slow, but also de-
cidedly painful, says the st. Louis Re
public.
The new instrument consists of a
forceps or pinchers, and of a case or
sheath, which contains a number of
nickel hooks or bands somewhat SINH
lar to those which are frequently seen
on the corners Of cardboard boxes. A
slight pressure sufiices to free these
hooks from the sheath. and within one
minute between 20 and 80 Of them
can be placed on a wound In such a
manner that they win effectively close
it. The reason why they cause no
pain is because their tiny rounded
points only penetrate the epidermis,
and not the lower layer of skin. Other
advantages which they possess are
that they can be easily disinfected,
that il is no trouble to remove them
from the skin after the wound is
healed, and that they leave hardly any
trace OF scar.
DIR. Michel has received congratula-
tons from the most distinguished
European physicians, and his instru.
ment is being rapidly introduced into
leading hospitals.
