His pictures were urgently TRADE DIRECTORY. wanted in London, remittances had gone astray, he was three days’ jour¬ ney from headquarters; he was a proud Scotsman and would not seek assistance. Fortunately, his hotel bill was paid, and he secured three sandwiches from the breakfast table before leaving. His one florin was viewed with distrust by local cab¬ men, but one, more sporting than ;he rest, consented for this sum to lonvey the operator and his kit to LICENSED FILM MANUFAC¬ TURERS.

After three weary and foodless lays’ travel across Europe — a jourley he will always remember on acount of consequent internal gnawngs — he detrained at Charing Cross. Leaving his baggage in charge of a 'riendly porter — no cloak room fees ieing available — he reported himself it headquarters close by; the succuence of his first beefsteak and the iroma of his first cup of coffee are ingering recollections.

Asked the reason for his change of front, the touching re¬ ly was given that perhaps his emirant son in the new world would ecognize his aged father in the old.
