Era Of "a Bath with Every Room.


"A bath with every room" is the
American idea of the comfortable"
hotel. 1t would be difiicult to knock
it out of the public's mind, now 1t has
worked in, but pray remember the
days when great-great grandfather
washed in a tin basin no bigger than
a finger bowl. Go and look at the tiny
corner washstand in the Paul Revere
house and see what that hero used for
maintaining cleanliness of person!
The ablutions of our forefa1hers were
not extensive. it is true, but they
told in the high thinking that was
kept UP in those days of lew living.
Private residences are not thought

crate bathrooms on every floor, and
