Royalty At the Grand Babylon.

THE royal apartments at the Grand
Babylon are famous in the world
of hotels, and, indeed; elsewhere,
as being, in their own way, I'M
Some Of the palaces of Germany and,
in particular, those of the mad King
Ludwig Of Bavaria, may possess rooms
and salons which outshine them in gor-
geous luxury and the mere wild. fairy
like extravaganza of wealth; but there
is nothing anywhere, even on Fifth ave-
nue., New York, which can fairly be
called more complete, more perfect,
more enticing, or-not least important
more comfortable.
The suite consists of five chambers
the anteroom, the salon OF audience
chamber, the yellow drawing room
(where royalty receives its friends), the
last of which we have already been in
troduced
The most important and most i'm
pressive of these five Is, of course, the
audience chamberlain apartment fifty
feet long by forty feet broad, with
shot tower, and the higher signals of
the Southwestern railway.
The decoration of this room Is mainly
in the German taste, since four out of
every six of its royal occupants are of
Teutonic blood, but its chief glory is its
French ceiling, a masterpiece by Fra
gonard taken bodily from certain IA

The walls are of paneled oak, with an
eight-foot dado of Arras cloth initiated
from unique continental examples.

IL you win wait until I return from
town will bring you food"
The cid lady was glad to have the
water and said she would wait until
Hester hurried away and bought
the food and the cap for her istep-
mother, and when she returned there
was the old beggar waiting for her.
Hester gave her a loaf Of bread;
here is an apple and some meal said
Hester.
And then the strangest thing hap
pened. AS she handed the bread TO the
old woman. loaf upon loaf piled up be-
apples, a bag OF meal was lying on the
ground, and when Hester looked at her
basket 1t was filled and SO heavy she
could not lift it.

and SO was the basket. but the old
woman touched them and Hester lifted
them without feeling their weight.

woman; you shared your gold with
a stranger, and, best Of all, you are
kind to your stepmother, who is fond of
you. When you reach home do not be
surprised at anything that happenss for

Hester thanked her for all the good
luck that had come to her and drove

home, and when she took the things
from the wagon there was so muchsthat
part had to be stored in the barn.
And instead of one cap for her STEP
mother there were two.
Her stepmother wondered how one
piece of gold could purchase so much,
and Hester told her about the fairy god
mother.
The next day Jane returned from the
city without the silk gown. My gold
was stolen from me and am tired and
hungry" she told them.
You do not deserve to be helped"
said her mother; you were so selfish,
but II you are willing to do your share
of the work and help Hester, If she Is
willing, you may stay
Hester was quite willing to have Jane,
and Jane was so ashamed of the way
she had behaved in the past that she
did more than her share of the work
and showed in many ways that she had
repented of the selfish manner in which
she had treated her mother and Hester.
