Too Haughty to Work by English Servants at 31 Lowndes Square
The Lowell household in London uses a staff that refuses tasks beneath their status. When a carpet corner needed tacking for a dinner at the embassy, every male servant declined, claiming it not their place. Mrs Lowell personally laid the carpet and dismissed the servants. Century excerpt.

Trading Company Money Trees in Central Africa
A historical account describes Sifilku in Central Africa where the Kengo Oriental company controls stores and fixes prices for ivory rubber and labor. Native cash payments prompt rapid spending at company shops with profits ranging from 100 to 250 percent on goods. The system relies on cash wages and repurchasing goods, with losses only from money wear and bookkeeping.

Dinant remembered in Belgium’s mourning after war
A perceptive Country Life sketch reflects on Dinant, a small Meuse town famed for its brasswork, ruined in 1486 by Burgundian forces, and again devastated in 1914 as Belgium endures invasion. The piece contrasts Dinant’s vanished prosperity with its lingering charm and picturesque streets.
