A man accompanied by his wife should not drag her Into the crowd that hangs around the office, as twothirds of them do. He should first take her to the parlors, leave her there and go to the office alone. When he has registered and been assigned a room, he should go and get her. When the boy has shown them the room, the guest should not hesitate to say so If he does not like it There are doubtless others empty, and It is the elerk's place to try to please. Another great blunder is not to ask the price of the room before looking at It Many a man feels reluctant to do this, but It is purely business. If the price does not suit he can kick, but there Is no use complaining after the bill Is sent In and sayi-ng that he has been overcharged, that he has been there before and always had a lower rate and all the many things that a man is apt to think about when he Is reiiuy tv iravts. When a woman Is alone, she should not go to the office. All that Is necessary is to take a seat in the p&rlor and send her card to the clerk, stating whether she wants a bathroom or not and exactly the kind of accommodations she wants. She should frankly say If she wishes a quiet room, a small room, an Inexpensive room or any preference sh? may have. Despite all the printed warnings on hotel walls It Is almost impossible to get women to send their valuables to the office safe. Why? It Is a mystery But the owners prefer, as a rule, tc take the chances. Then, If a I068 occurs, they blame not their own carelessness, but the hotel management. Another thing: Trunks should be kept locked. Every hotel tries to get * t--'?

How to Decorate the Table. A charming dinner table arrangement Is of La France roses and maidenhair ferns, with striped grass.
