Foreign Beds.

1t is curious to notice the habits of differ
ent nations in. regard to beds. However
dress, food, manners, cooking, political. con-
dltlons may vary in other countries the beds
dIfer as notably as anything else In East
ern nations the bed is often nothing but
carpet, and carried about and spread in anv
convenient spot, and the tired native lies
down in his clothes.
We remember child who used to be nuz-
zled with those miracles Of our Sayiour who
IN restoring an impotent man, directed him
to take up his bed and walk-his idea of
bed consisting Of four-post bedstead. with
Its PalIsse, mattrass, and feather bed. besides
blankets, sheets aud pillows But even in
very cold countries the beds are closely allied
to the Eastern carpet. In taking furnished

wants, bed rooms and beds, which did not

servants are in the habit of lying anvwbcre

In Germany the construction of the bojs

out of his crew of 80 seameu, he could save
but one. The seamen, therefore, resolved
among themselves that the captain shoald
count them off, after they had arranged them

count at whatever part of the line or circle he
might see proper, but having once begun, he
