The French Foreign legion. which
is always the cause Of so much bad
blood in Germany, is the only regiment
Of its kind in existence. 1t dates from
1881, when France undertook the con-
quest of Algeria. 1t consists OF two
regiments, each four battalions strong
drawn from all the adventurers OF
Europe. 1t is popular not only because
no questions are asked, but because
promotion is open to all, within limits
and II certain number Of the officers
have risen from the ranks. All classes
are to be found among Its members
and all natiOnalities, but the many
Germans do not describe themselves
as such-they are all Alsatians. The
reason for its continued existence is
that France cannot spare its men nor
find enough who would leave the com
forts of civilization for the wastes OF
Africa or the swamps Of Tonkin.-Man

Historic London Street.

Friday street is one Of the most In
teresting and ancient OF the thorough
fares OF London. AS long ago as l3oo
a reference to 1t appears in the city
records, and even then it was probably
old. Close by 1t stood the Nag's Head
tavern, which is famous In history as
the pretended scene Of the consecra'
ton of Matthew Parker. archbishop
of Canterbury. In the reign OF queen
Elizabeth.
The mime Of Friday street Is derived
from the fact that In medieval times
many fishmongers resided there ana
held their Friday market in the vi.
cinity. BY a strange contrariety OF
nomenclature the Wednesday club met
at a hostelry in the street. and there
