CHAIRS.

This must have been an uncomfor-
table world in the old days. ,Cescinsky
and Gribble have written book re-
vealing that the chair was rare art
icle of furniture 400 years ago, and
was almost unknown a century before
that. Previously people used stools,
on which they sat more or less uncom-
fortably for thousands of years until
some unknown lazy gent, who liked
comfort, got the idea of adding a back
and turning the stool into chair

London.-Perhaps the thing that
strikes the American here more than
anything else is the attitude of the
Londoner toward the police.
There is a general feeling of friend
Illness toward the man in blue. The
bobby is the Londoner's standby.
An important reason for this atti-
tude is the status of the police in this
city. Politics does not enter into the
force Although in a way it is under
the control Of cabinet officer, when
cabinets tumble the police force goes
right, on without a change.
And police manners! The bobby is
taught to be polite and civil to the
public, and he always remembers he
is a public servant So, when London
squad of police handles crowd the
last thing it uses is force.
Only in extremities are clubs used.
And as for guns, they carry none.

negotiations with the Serbs concern
ing Fiume are said to be progressing
amicably, but the government of that
