 EZZ3agr CHAIRS Chairs are sometimes useful and sometimes merely ornamental articles sprinkled with great profusion throughout all edifices. Those chairs which arc ornamental seem also designed for the purpose of discouraging sedentary habits, although they sometimes do make excellent objects on which to rest the eyes. . . The functions of useful chairs are many and varied: They are stood upright by those who cannot reach the top shelf; they arc fine things to stumble over in the dark; rightly placed, they make an excellent device for covering that worn spot on the carpet; their proper arrangement about a table shows who is the head, or at least, in the case of family tables, who is the figurehead; they furnish welcome storage facilities for tacks and pins which have been discarded by small boys. An easy chair is one which will suffer all kinds of personal abuse without retaliation. Such a chair stands in marked contrast to that which tips over backward just as one begins to think that it is easy. Chairs which look easy are not always to be trusted. Treacherous chairs have unusual opportuni- ties for deception, for the reason that, regardless of the amount of suspicious attention one bestows when contemplating their use, when put into common use one always turns his back to them, thus flaunting temptation in their faces and putting himself at an exceptional disadvantage. It would probably be wasted time which was spent trying to invent a chair which one could sit in and face at the same time, as a chair's back is also its front, and its top may be its bottom; but this is not true of human beings.
