Furnishing Souvenirs.

Hotels find that the furnishing of sou ,venirs to their patrons Is a very large item of expense, and in case of the larger houses sometimes runs into thousands of dollars a year. These souvenirs consist principally of silver forks, spoons, salt cellars and such articles of table furni- ture as are readily carried away without attracting attention. .e#.t
 The proprietors do not intend to fur nish these things to enable their patrons to recall pleasant memories of hospital ity; but they do furnish themm, just the same.
 The large hotels of the metropolis are great sufferers, and are continually buy ing expensive tableware to keep up the supply of souvenirs.
 These things are not always taken without the act being observed. but it is not often policy to call attention to the patrons penchant for relics of his visit. If he is spoken to. it is usually in the privacy of the managers office.
 A Pan-American Exposition story is told that illustrates this habit. but the same story has come from other cities of great fairs. Two pupils were telling their teacher of presents their parents had brought from Buffalo.
 Papa brought me nice silver cup" said one. My name was on it, and it said: For a good boy
