In the neighborhood of Stainford Street, in the south-east of London, there is ,a chimney shaped after the likeness of a huge coffin. It is made up of dark -colored 'bricks, and pre- sents an appearance which is gloomy to the point of depression. This quaint erection, curiously .enough, is Well-nigh unnoticed by the ,inhabit- ants. of the district, many of whom are quite unaware of its presence in their midst. A small intisic-hall M a southern city of France is decorated with a chimney shaped to resem.ble a man.
