OF carpet. "A highly polished center ia

hlled with rare old brass and delft

the houses are the sleeping quarters

The cheesemaker's family sleeps in
beds built in cupboard-iike recesses in
the wall and as far from the window
as possible. There is a door similar to
that OF cupboard. and this is kept
closed during the day in order that the
bed may be hidden from view. The
stuffy condition OF this walled in bed

linen is always snowy white, and the
whole makeup presents an attractive
appearance even 10 the decorated strap

His Powers Are Quite Limited, and So

The president of Switzerland is so

OF amicable understandings with for

than the other six members OF the
council of which he forms a part He
is elected for one year, has no official
residence. and his chief business is 10
sign the documents OF the bundesrat
or council OF seven. His salary is in
our money equal to about $1,000 per
annum. and there Is no provision for
private expenses. such as travelling or
entertaining. He is expected 10 live
in the capital Of the country during
the year he holds Office. His associate
members in the bundesrat get $1,000 a
year. and they are elected for three
years, their votes having the same
force as that of the president
