The chair thus supported
adapts itself to every movement of the sitter, and gives ease and
comfort that no firmly fixed seat can do.
For writers these springs are particularly delightful, as the forward
movement of the body brings the seat forward with it, and the writer can
have the comfort of resting his back at the same time that he is at a
convenient angle for his work.

LETTERS FROM OUR YOUNG FRIENDS.

We have received two very interesting letters, one from E.J.K., 461 West
43d Street, and one from C.H.K., 504 West 44th Street. We thank these
friends for their kind letters, but are unable to print them at length.
_To the Editor._
DEAR SIR:--In your article in No. 51, on the forest fires
and drought following a very wet season, and remarking that
we should have such extremes, is it not due--our
irregularity of climate--to our careless devastating of
whole portions of the country of trees? Many claim so. We
are in sore need of national or state foresters. [Signed]
INQUIRER.

DEAR INQUIRER:
While vegetation has something to do with the climate, the sudden
changes to which we are subject are due to the configuration of the
land.
