PERFUMED AIR IN A HOTEL
About the Limit Even In This Age That Is UnrivaIed In It's
 Luxury.

The ultra" of scientific hotel ac- commodations has reached Los An geles. Soon guests of the Hotel Alex andria will not breathe the ordinary air which circulates the highways and byways.
 No. indeed, monsieur and madame must be made comfortable; therefore. the dining salons and foyers of this hotel will be equipped with perfumed air
 And to make this innovation in the hotel business even more complete the ordors which reach the nostrils of Alexandria guests will vary with the seasons.
 For instance, according to Manager s. J. Whitmore, spring will announce itself to the city dweller who never visits the byways by a delicate aroma of violet; little later the scent will change, and the delicate "parfum" of the orange blossom will be de riguer.
 With autumn will come the Indian summery fragrance of pine needles the virgin forest. With winter, be- cause this is southern California, roses.
 Exhaust fans which pump in cool air through a rainstorm of scented waters will make this possible. All grill and the banquet hall invisible supply fans will constantly keep a new current of perfumed air in circu- lation among the diners and ioungers.
 Should monsieur wish to give lit- tie dinner in private dining-room and have a fancy for the scent of law ender, then it will be supplied to him throughout the meal.
 Tt Is our object" said MT. Whit more, ito give our guests the most attractive environment. After care full consideration we find that the per fumed air for our dining-rooms will be pleasing touch for all those who wish to enjoy 1t. The only danger. of course, would be in overdoing the thing. None would want to take a meal in a salon saturated with the odor of orange blossoms, for exam pie. Our tinctures are to be delicate however. The perfumes will give a natural aroma; no more. ."-Los An, geles Examiner.

rondon.-Sensation follows sensa- .,ar in the development of the politi- cal crisis precipitated by the Unionist ot+empt to render the British army ir sffective in expressing possible Ir,s+sr resistance to the Home Rule bill.
 EolIowiug the fierce excitement of last week. Prime Minister Asquith an nornced in the House of Commons tbat not only have Field-Marshal Franch. Chief of the General Staff, and Adiutant-General Ewart persisted in tLeir resignations, but that War Secretary Seely had rendered his reeiguation afresh and that all three resienations had been accepted.
 Then MT. Asquith proceeded to make the dramatic announcement that ba himself would take over the Secre- +arvship of War in addition to his .dufies as Prime Minister, and, in ac- cordance with the opinion expressed bv the law officers, he would submit himself for reelection to Parliament.
 No such sensational statement had been made in the House of Commons abefore within living memory. Its eff fect WAS the more marked because no- bodv ever dreamed cof such a step be- ing taken.
 As soon as the House had recovered from it's surprise at Mir. AsQuith's de- cision 1t was realized on all sides that 1t was a master stroke, which at once kills the army crisis and restores the Government to its oold position of dominating strength.
 With MT. Asquith in the War De- partment officers who show disposi- ton to question orders will know they are dealing with a man who will stand no nonsense, while at the same time the public will be reassured that no military step will be taken against Ulster that is not positively demanded by the requirements of the situation.
 A further advantage is that in the War Office MT. Asquith will be in a better position to deal with the House of Lords in any attempt to prevent the passage of the Army Annual bill of which there have been renewed hints in the past few days.
 Not the least surprising feature of the coup is that MT. Asquith will sub nit himself to reelection. This is con- trary to the precedent set in 1873 when Gladstone decided to assume the double duties of Chancellor of the Exchequer and of Prime Minister. The Government supporters, however, warmly approved the course decided upon, since it is more than likely that MT. Asquith's constituents will give hi an increased majority. which will have the effect of still further strengthening his hands in carrying the struggle to finish.
