The demand for seats at a Paris
court trial is utilized by the poor to
turn an honest franc The courtrooms
usually admit of but forty visitors
other than the regular court officers. 1t
Is common for crowd to collect in
front of the court many hours before
the door is open and wait patiently in
tine. Just before the trial begins. when
the doors are open, these men, who
have perhaps been standing all night
in the rain. are glad to sell their places
for a few francs.

CHAINED BOOKS.
The Custom Mt One Time Extended
to LfncoIB's Inn, London.

When one looks in bookshop windows
nowadays and contemplates the be-
wildering abundance of volumes of all
kinds of literature offered at the low
price of $1.50 or less he finds il diff
cult to realize that time was when
Bible cost as much as $4,000 in our
present money. No wonder II was kept
chained in churches The Black Books
of Lincoln's Inn, London, show that this
practice of claiming obtained there.
There is an entry during the reign Of
King James |. that decent stooles be
provided and that movable desks be
also made and chains for the book,
and Il few years later the inn payments
include - shillings for twenty dozen
of chains and rings for the library, and
there is fresh order made that "all
considerable bookes be chayned."
1t appears that none of the existing
booiss in tie library retain their chains
or any part OF them. but considerable
nun6er-about forty-stiil have riyeted
to tie binding the ring or hasp by
which the chain was attached, ana
many more show the mark left by
rings now removed.
The "moveable desk" and the de
cent stoole'' were essential appurte-
nances of a chained library of any size.
Even the zeal of n medieval student
was not equal to holding a chained
folio. In the accounts of the Middle
Temple "chayns for the boxes of the
librarle" is a constantly recurring item,
and reader in Gray's Ina in bequeath-
ing his library gives 40 shillings to the
intent that he-the trustee male BY
chaynes fasten so many of them in tie
librarie at Gray's Inn as he shall thinke
convenyente."
