THE BED OF BEDS.
Pleasures of the Couch Made of Boughs
In Camps in the Woods.

There are beds and beds, but none
is SO comfortable, SO restful, or so in
teresting as that which the hunter,
fisherman, OF plain campsr-out makes
for himself from the boughs of ever
cen trees in the forests of Maine,
Canada, or any Of the other great hunt
ing regions along the northern border.
This bed, made Of shot trimmings
of twigs form the spruce, cedar, hem
lock or balsaT, or all four together,
consists entirely Of the feathers" OF
the trees, the siN-inch outshoots from
branches, with the plume end up, laid
against a PROSTATE two-inch sappling,
SO that the head may have Il pillow.
AS the twigs stand nearly erect the
bed is four or five inches deep, and a
blanket spread over it yields and
springs back as one rolls over it. The
bed, wide in proportion TO the number
of persons to use it, and seven feet long,
is as fluffy as Il haymow, and gives
forth scent that sooothes and heals
ones senses and body.
But the Dough bed is getting less and
less used. Hotels and fancy cottage
camps with spring beds ard linen
sheets are slowly supersed;ng the old
style hunters bed because of the diff
ficulty and bother of getting new bed
every trip. 1t will be long time, how
ever, before balsaIn bough pillows cease
to lie used in even the most ar;stccratic
of hunters lodges.
