CENTENARY or THE BURLINGTON ARCADE. The following, as quoted by The Observer from its issue of May 21, 1820, should be worthy of record in the pages of ' N. & Q.' :

" BURLINGTON ARCADE, PICCADILLY. The attention of the nobility and gentry is now much attracted to this novel and beautiful building. In the range of shops scarcely an article either for ornament or use but is exhibited in its most engag- ing form. The complete protection from the heat aa well as the inclemency of the weather, the brilliant display of fashionable company promenad- ing during the principle part of the day, and the great attention paid by the inhabitants to keep out improper visitors, render this place more inviting than any other in the metropolis or in any part of the world."

It cannot in truth be written that the laudable attempt to exclude " improper visitors " from the gallery was subse- quently altogether realized.

CECIL CLARKE*.

IMRAPEN : BADEN IN SWITZERLAND. In his ' Travels ' (vol. i. pp. 339-40), under the date Aug. 13, 1705, De Blainville has ai}- account of " the famous Baths of Imrapen, a large village, or, if you will, a little Borough, about a quarter of a league from Baden." Imrapen does not occur in modern maps or guide-books, and would appear to have been absorbed in the Baden of to-day. De- Blainville carefully distinguishes Imrapen: from Baden. Concerning the former ae writes :

" In the middle of this Borough is a large Squan- surrounded with Houses, which have each a Bath belonging to it, for the Use of those who lodge in. it, which is no small Convenience. The Waters of these Baths are full of Sulphur and Alum. There are two in the middle of the great Square which, are called Fry- Baden i.e. Public Baths. These are for the Use of those who are not able to hire Baths for themselves. There one sees Men and Women, Girls and Boys, quite naked confusedly mingled.
