Family Hotels.

The fondnesS of Americans for living
at hotels has often been commented on
by Europeans. particularly by English
men, who rarely stay at a hotel except
when travelling and who almost never
make it home. While our national
habit. as it has been called, has been
greatly exaggerated, there is no doubt
that we are more addicted than any Old
World people to hotel life, owing 10
various conditions which do not exist
abroad. Our hotel life is better ordered
than it used to be. Within two or three
Years new kind of hotel. known as the
private family hotel. has sprung up in
this city. and has proved So popular hat
it is certain to multiply. Hotels of this
stamp are new to the country and as un-
like our great teeming caravansaries as
they well can be and retain the same
name. They receive no transient people;
their rooms are divided into suites. usual
lyrented by the year, and often furnished
bv the occupant. There is regular
restaurant, at which the patrons take
their meals (each family, or set. at a
small table, always reseryedD, paying a
fixed price, generally fourteen dollars a
week for each person. The suites for
one or two commonly consist of a par
lor, or sitting-rOOm, bed-chamber and
bath-room; but they are larger, of
course. when intended for Il family.
Most of the patrons are married couples
who have no children. or whose chill
dren have grown up or are away at
school. though some families with small
children like these hotels as well as
private houses, and say they have the
same advantages. There are at present
six or seven family hotels here, all in or
near Fifth Avenue, and they are so
much approved that they are continually
full, except, of course. in summer, when
their renters are out of town. They
seem destined to become 4 favorite
mode of living. They are not cheap;
nothing good or desirable ever is cheap.
hut they are not very dear, as these
things 60. They are rather less ex-
pensive than the great hotels would be.
and have far more comfort for an, body
who cares for quiet Persons that have
tried housekeeping year after year have
adopted the family hotel and prefer the
change. There are So many difficulties
in the way of home-making in this city,
notwithstanding that they are materi-
ally less than they have been, that the
new sort of hotel may he regarded as
one of the repeated essays toward i'm
provement. The chief trouble here is
the cost of living. especially of rent.

earnings are relieved from any number

A Boy Again.

Sometimes an old man becomes boy
again, though too smart to drop into
his second childhood. An illustration
of this pleasant tendency was given, not
many months since. by ah old man, with
several millions. He was in the habit
of prowling around the office of the in-
surance company in which he was a di-
rector One morning. as he was thus
investigating, he happened TO come
across the dinner-pail of the oiliee-boy.
His curiosity led him to take Off the

became 4 boy again, and the dinner-pail
seemed the one ne had carried sixty
years ago. Just then the office boy
came in and surprised the old man eat
ing the pie-he had finished the bread
and doughnuts.
That's my dinner you're eatingr'
exclaimed the boy. Indignantly.
Yes, sonny, suspec; il may be: but
it iirst-rate one. for all that. I've not
eaten so good one for sixty years

The Wartburg.

The origin of this imposing castle
dates from the eleventh century, and
it is said to owe its construction to
Count Ludwig H., or Louis the Springer,
who. in 1867, happening to observe the
beautiful position of the hill upon which
it now stands, said: ..Wart, Berg. du
sollSt mir cine Burg werdenr'-" Wait,
mountain, thou shalt to me a castle be-
come" Although eight hundred years
have swept over its towers, with all
their attendant revolutions Of domestic
and foreign wars. the proud old castle
still challenges the devastating encroach-
ments of time, and preserves all of that
majestic grandeur and stateliness
which has been the boast and admira-
ton of more than twenty generations.
1t commands revcrential respect as an
unbroken link between a far remote
period in the worlds history and modern
times-a proud and enduring monu-
ment to feudal power and glory, an un-
dying relic of medieval grandeur and
extravaganza.
The very atmosphere Of the venera-
bic pile is redolent of the past, and the
winds which sigh through the deep por-
tails seem to be requiems over departed
glory.
1t is impossible to visit this building
without being impressed with more than
ordinary respect for those who made ii
what it is, or to enter within its ex-
tended limits without a feeling akin TO
awe.
Its massive walls seem to echo weird
l., h. nf -
and in their hollow reverberations re-
call centuries of revelry and pleasure
and tell the history of Thuringia for
eight hundred years. No great flight
of the imagination is required to rcpeo-
pie those ancient halls with the warrior
and troubadour actors of ages ago, and
listen to the minstrcrs art; the recital
of 4" Ritterpoesie," or the sweet strains
Of Minnelieder,' or songs of love
chanted by the famous Minnesanger"
Hartmann, Wolfram of Eschenbach,
Heinrich Won Meissen, Walter Won der
Vogelweidc and many others-who
frequently met under Count Hermann
of Thuringia. in this appointed hall, for
their tournaments of love, poetry and
song, in one of which TannhaIser is
said to have contested for the hand of
Landgraye's niece.
All such scenes are now forgotten in
the practical tendencies of our modern
tastes. and yet their fancied resurrection
here gives the keenest pleasure to the
most unromantic of visitors.
The new Minnesangers Hall is most
beautiful room, but the old one is still
preserved, and attracts the greater at
tention. The armory is still shown, also
the chapel where Luther preached, and
the room in the Vorburg occupied by
him as ''Junker Georg." in l52l-22,
during his pretended captivity, which
proved such safe asylum from perse-
cution after his triumph Mt Worms. 1t
was here that he made such progress in
his translation of the Bible. The room
has not been materially changed and
still contains many little souvenirs of
the great reformer, including letters,
books, drinking vessels. together with
his costume as German nObleman,
which he assumed during his residence
there. Z. Montgomery. in Haper's
