APPEALED TO HOTEL CLERK
Fair Guest Applied for Object Not US

To be a successful hotel clerk you
must have an even temper. There Is
no man under the sun who has so
much to try his temper as a hotel
clerk. The night clerk Of a certain
Baltimore hotel is a young man with
the most polished manners. He Is
especially polite to the ladies, but a
few evenings ago he nearly lost his
equilibrium when a pretty guest asked
him to loan her an alarm clock.
81 must get up very early tomorrow
morning" said the fair guest; cant
you loan me an alarm clock-one
that / can depend ONT"
81 will have you called at any hour
you WISH" replied the clerk.
'"That won't do. You might forget
It, and besides, I have no watch, and
If I wake up during the night l like
to know the time"
The clerk suggested that there was
a telephone in the room, but that
would not do, so he called the house
keeper, who loaned the fair guest an
alarm clock.

already in the reign of Henri II the
first steps We're taken to regulate public
auction sales which are now conducted
under the supervision of the state. by
the close corporation of "Commissaires-
Priseurs.' without whose permission no
public auction may be held in Paris.
Both from the point of view of the state
and the public the Paris system has
much to recommend it., The state is as
sured of the payment of its imposts, the
disposal of stolen property is rendered
more difficult and the buyer and seller
are protected against that feature of the
London saiesroom, the dealers knock
out auction, where the dealers, having
by agreement kept down the price to
be paid at the public sale, meet in pri-
vate afterWard and put the object up for
sale among themselves. These safe
guards against fraud and unfair sales
room tactics are expensive, and the COM
petition of the freer art markets of Lon
don and New York is felt more every
year. The conditions of sale in Paris
are fixed by legislation. and the costs
