The Coolest Hotel IN New York,
THE EVERETT HOUSE

TIE EVERETT HOUSE


has one Of the most beautiful locations OF
any hotel in New York. 1t faces Union
Square, one of the city's lovely parks,
and its large, luxurious comfortable,
CHEEKY rooms and its wide halls have in
addition to all present-day conveniences,
plenty of light and air
THE EVERETT HOUSE
has probably also what is the most CON
yenient loca ton of any New York hotel.
1t is in the very heart of the city. All
railway stations and steamship lines are
within easy reach, and nearly all points
of interest in and around New York are
near at hand.
THE EVERETT HOUSE
has practically at its door the amuse-
nent houses, the centre of the wholesal-
ing and manufacturing districts, and the
shopping districts. Across the street is
an entrance to the Subway. BY this
mode of travel one may get to Wall
Street in ten minutes, and to Harlem i'll
fifteen minutes. The Elevated railroad
and various surface lines are also near
by the Broadway lines being but a block
away, while the 18th Street cars pass one

Much Virtue In Rice.

Muchi Ii Wing says the Chinese are
the healthiest people on earth, be-
cause they live solely on the three RS
-rice, ragout and rennet. Chinese
rice IL cooked without salt and each
grain stands to itself; and It Is eaten
without butter, gravy, pepper or any
other condiment. Rheumatism and
gout are almost unknown among rice
eaters; yet our American physicians
sternly forbid 1t as an article Of diet
among victims Of those diseases.
