Sky-Scrapers For London,

It interests me to see that Mr. Topham Forrest, architect to the London County Council, favours a modified sky-scraper in Lon- don, writer "Colophon" in John o' London's Weekly." This is the outcome of a visit to the States, where he found that the height of the sky-scraper bears a definite relationship to the breadth of the

Lord Haig's Duties.

It seems to be taken for granted that Earl Haig will be spending most of the season in London, largely because his daughter, Lady Alexandra Haig, is a de- butante this year (says a London Evening News" writer.) It is unlikely, though, that London will see much of the Field-Marshal this summer. He is a member of the General Assembly, so that his duties will lie in Edinburgh dur- ing the latter part of May. After that he has. visits to Canada and America to undertake, and he is unlikely to be back until August,

The Composition of Coal.

A chief difficulty felt by users as well as owners of coal lies in its varied composition, sometimes

colliery, or when it is derived from a single. even a single seam..

Some users on large scale are disposed to deny the advantage of inquiring into the distribution of differences in composition if they can be averaged over a carload or larger quantity. How far this attitude is justified when the coal is burnt raw for the mere produc- tion of heat as in a power-station

Curiosities In Our Dress,

The history of dress is largely a story of survivals. The reader, therefore, at his leisure, must add to and amplify the few facts that In the circumstances, perhaps, it space allows us to mention here. behoves us to exclude from our list the two buttons which appear on the back of a man's tail-coat Their history, we shall probably be told, is common knowledge.
