that such things can be possible under
reasonable conditions, particularly when
we know how small a sum Of money will
buy enough clothing to cover nature and
regard decency.

The uniform scale Of prices, the elegance
Of cuisine, the comfortable, cieanly and

has passed into the management Of Messrs.
Beckman & Punchard, who are fully COM
petent to carry on the enterprise they have
undertaken and bring to it years of expe-
rience gained from their association with
the late proprietor. Mr.. Joseph b. Beck
man has for thirteen years been connected
with the Parker House, where he proved
so efficient that upon the retirement OF his
predecessor he was placed in full charge
Of the catering and stores department,
which position he held up to and during
his copartnership with Mr.. Harvey ID.
Parker. Mr.. Edward o. PuDchard en-
tered the hotel few years later, and on
the death of Mr.. Mills enlarged his knowl-
edge Of the business by also taking pO-
sltion in the stewards department. About
three years since both gentlemen were
given an interest in the hotel as partners.
Young, energetic and pushing, thoroughly
conversant with the hotel business down
to its minutest details, with the courtesy
and enterprise of men who mean to sue
ceed, there is no danger that under their
management the house will not only fully
enjoy, but will increase, the high reputa-
ton it has gained. The new extension IS
being rapidly pushed to completion, and
when finished the Parker House will be
one Of the largest as well as one OF the
finest hotels on either continent.

half as large. Courteous treatment makes

steps in this great work.
The evils of the rum
traffic were most graphically portrayed
and the right of society to regulate by
legislation. this great evil was clearly

made strong argument against the re-
