Alta seaside resort where several authors
have cottages, says the New YORK Recor-
der. the hotel guests seem to consider liter
arv conversations most appropriate During
a recent one, which took place on the bay,
a Philadelphia woman led the forces:

zion of his cottage. Some one family MUIR

her remarks with conventional French

seems to have come to stay, and will, no
doubt, in time, succeed the double bed in
all rooms occupied by two persons. As a
matter of economy and space it is not prao-
ticable in every family that each member
should have a separate room. But it is ex-
ceedingly desirable that each member should
sleep in separate bed. So high an au-
thority as the London Lancet
In recent article, condemned
the double bed as unwholesome. 1t said in
effect that no two persons could sleep in this
way regularly for period OF any length
without one or the other feeling evil effects
fromit. The more Emphatic, robust per-
son is sure TO draw nervous force from the
more delicate and more nervous person, and
it is not uncommon for both to rise in the
morning iaded aud dull whereas they
would have risen refreshed and invigorated
had they slept in separate beds. The twin
beds offer a complete remedy for these evils,
while they occupy but a trifle more space
than the double bed. This twin arrange
meHt consists of two beds, which are in
tended TO be placed side by side and the de-
sign Of which is usually incomplete unless
they are so placed. A separate spring mat
tress and bed clothing are provided for each
bed and the sleeper enjoys the perfect rest
lulness OF a separate bed. A young person
may sleep beside an aged one in such an ar
rAngemeAt without the danger Of the in
curious effects which are the result Of their
occupying the same bed. This arrange
ment is recommended by health and fashion
at present.

leading society woman, says Clara Belle

me scoldtng her from morning TO night.
