the hooks of the handsomely furnished
apartment and along its walls, and a
fragrance filled the room from huge
clusters of mermet roses which deco
rated the table. A table piece was a

inside of which We're shed the rays of
an electric light. On a side table was
located a sample of the Hotel Jermyn
