Furniture costs money, and it's just wasting cash to put the work of "shifting" into the hands of someone who has neither the ability nor the facilities to do the work properly.

One of the best stories of General Smith -Dorvien, who is to take the Gibraltar command, is that which he used to tell against himself of an incident during the South African war (says a writer in the Westminster Gnzet.t,'). An orderly arrived at his quarters one day with important despatches, which he delivered with ft verbal message—this in language that was rather unconventional, judged by i his rank. Smith-'Dnryien read the ) despatches and dismissed the mail with a reply that he would be ready to move in two hours. "And," he added, "say 'please' the next time you speak to mo'' The orderly delivered 'Smith-Tlovrieu's reply to kitchener. "What did lie say?'' he was asked.
