directly influences digestion. and on good

The purpose Of this little screed is to point
to a bed room which is adorned most when
1t is a boudoir. In most homes 1t is now
considered a necessity to give every indi-
vidual in the house a separate sleeping
room, and why should not the girls turn
theirs into a boudoir filled with their par
ucular treasures? The bachelor girl who
lives in boarding house or apartment may
try the same transformatio act. Given the
room, any ingenious woman with a particle
of taste can with small expense arrange a
