was to pay. The doctor named his fee.
The patient thought it too much. He.
however. would not take less, and as
the woman refused to give him the fee
he began to yawn. Yawning, as every

The Fashion Center
London, West, England

We, the Undersigned, members of the Drapery and Al
lied Trades. and associates of the Fashion Press, ask your
acceptance OF this address of congratulaton upon the occa-
sion of the Royal Worcester Corset Company gaining the
Silver Seal Certificate OF the London Incorporated Insti-
Of Hygiene, a distinction never before conferred upon
Corsets.
We desire, further, to express our appreciation Of the
unique service you have rendered the retail corset trade by
the institution of the principle of new corset styles for each
new fashion, and by the perfection of your ingenious system
OF graduated fittings, whereby the crude, made-to measure
corset has been entirely superseded. Your vigorous and
progressive policy has succeeded in overcoming the long
standing prejudice Of the medical faculty against corsets.
We farther offer our congratulations on the pronounced
success Of Royal Worcester Corsets in Paris and Brussels
as indicative of the authenticity Of your Company's products.
The elaborate measures you haye taken in your factory
to safeg uard the well.beng Of your every employe is partic.
ularly gratifying to us, and we feel that we are only echoing
the wish Of every individual in your service when we ex-
press the hope that, not withstanding your eighty four
years, you may be spared at the helm of your wonderful en-
terprise for many years to come.
Respectfully,

tAbstract from q paper presented by r. 8.
Church at nnual meeting Of Wood
0rowers' association in New Orleanal
Il has been said that creosoted wood
blocks would make the ideal pavement
IL provisions could be made for the
elimination Of the following faults:
F1rst-The tendency to expand, re
sulting in the bullying and sometimes
the upheaval Of the pavement; the dis
location Of curbs, etc.
Second.-Slipperiness.
Third.-The emulation of oil or
bleeding"
In a comparison of European and
American paving. therefore. it is nat
ural, first, to inquire whether or not
these faults are observed in European
wood block pavements and. il not. why

CreOsOted wood is the most highly

OF this pavement In ten Of the twenty
