Woes Of the Hotel Mnn

woes O1 the Hotel Man.
 If you want to see life in all of its hotel business" said local hotel man. ager yesterday.

 The people who are disappointed at the letter that never came are with out number. and all in all. the life of hotel keeper is one that compares you fellows see much of the life of which the public knows nothing.
 ''I wish some of those scientific men who are giving so much of their time feet communication wi:h Mars. would turn their attention to the matter of more importance to the average human being.
 When I read about these scientific men. I am reminded of the account Gull liver gives of the men he saw at work in the great laboratory, who were try ing to make some sort or an ointment that would prevent the wool from growing on the back of sheep. or some process by which barrels of certain filthy matter could be changed into wholesome food Poor. simple Gulli- yer thought that the man who could make two blades of grass grow where only one grew before. was a great ben efactor to humanity. and like Gulliver, I am of the opinion that the man who can invent some means of reducing the noise made by street cars would be more deserving of public thanks than the man who spends his time finding out the difference in weight between a live and a dead cat"
