On the second floor of the Paris court house work ers are installing iron and steel gates—built along the lines of cell doors—at the entrances of waiting rooms where the men and women await their turn to appear before the Judge. According to ~French law when suit is entered for divorce, the judge in a final effort at conciliation sum- mons before him both hushand and wife. This is known as the meeting “In extrimis.” Two walting rooms, separated hy @ corridor have In the past shelterd respectively women and men until their particwar case was reached. The corridor, however, proved woe- fully inadquate to separate the es- tranged pairs, as daily some wife could not resist the temptation ef crossing over to the men's Warting room and telilng her husband what shd thought of his hehavior. Some- times it was the husband who invad- ed the woman's room and in bitter terms reproached the unfaithful spouse, The result was continuous disputes and often blows. Many a husband eft the court house bearing the marks of madam's fingernails and several women departed with hair dishevelled and heargear torn, ¥rom now on, husbands and wives desirous of severing the matrimonial tie will be ushered into the rooms, and the steel gates locked behind them, to be released one by one when their names are called.

THE old adage, “Jack of all trades, and master of none” is just as true in the furniture business as in any other line of business endeavor. Energy with- out direction makes nothing more than waste. Energy, diverted in too many dif- ferent channels, causes inefficiency. But it is energy, concentrated, that makes superior production. And that is what we term “specialization.” The finest made furniture comes from the ‘‘spe- cialists’'—those who specialize in the production of just one article, or one particular group -of furniture. There are huge factories that specialize in chairs—making nothing else—others that con- struct tables only, and still others that build noth- ing else but living room furniture, and so on. The May-Stern stores long ago realized the great advantages to be had furniture from the most celebrated makers in the business.
