A London woman is just recoverim; from a bad shock, says the London Daily Chronicle. Coming home from a shopping expedition she was amazed to see 50 or 60 persons outside her door, eager people with anxious looks. They were lined up in dense formation suggestive of a theatre queue. For a time she could not see her front door, but when she did she nearly collapsed. Pinned firmly to the *" centre was a card boldly printed, "Rooms to let. Apply within." She rushed forward to destroy it, but her anxietv to get to the dooPflid not suit the crowd. "Who are you pushing?" "Take your place in the queue," arid similar angry cries were volleyed at her. It took the poor woman ten minutes to convince the crowd that she was the occupier of the house.
