No one dreams of going to Cairo, or any town of the East, without visiting its bazaar. And Eastern bazaars, for all their frequent stock of Birmingham goods, are interesting enough. But very few visitors to London think to go and see its great street-markets, as lively as any Eastern bazaars, probably more ' authentic ' a9 to their wares, and certainly as characteristic of real London as anything could be. Prominent among them are Club Row in Bethnal Green, the Rag Fair in Notting Dale, and Petticoat Lane (or Middlesex Street, as it is officially called) in Aldgate. Any Sunday morning you may stroll down Petticoat Lane and see as strange a medley of cheapjacks, teeth-extractors, open-air chiropodists and patent medicine mongers as could possibly be got together. The Rag Fair is perhaps a little less heterogeneous. And Club Row is the market where you buy cats, dogs, canaries, peacocks—indeed, any pet you may desire.
