Mark the Exits.

In theatres, halls and hotels the stair
ways and exits are well marked both
with lettered signs and red-shaded
lights. The law sees to that. But in
many other buildings, mainly used
through the day not by sleepers or by

so planned, enlarged or thrown togeth-
er that their narrow. passage ways are
full of twists and tufns. In one or two
cases not far from Milk street the cor
ridors would be confusing even to an
man with the whole forenoon
