Here's a Tip About Hotel Guests

Here's a Tip About Hotel Guests
In the American Magazine a writer
says:
Here's n funny thing, by the way,
that I've noticed about hotel guests:
You have soiled towel in room,
and the guest will probably complain.
But you can leave a bucket OF paint
and paperhanger's scaffOld in the
hallway, and compel the guest to
crawl under n stepladder to get to his
room, and he will put up with it
cheerfully-because he knowns you
are painting or papering by way OF
making an improvement, and he is in
sympathy with that. 1t doesn't cost
much to make over a carpet so that
bare spot in front of the dresser
will be eliminated, but such little de-
tails are n vast help in making a
hotel prosper"

House and Floor Plan.

A piece of 1-inch mesh wire netting is
needed ON the south side. The window
on the east side may be removed dur
Ing the summer for ventilation. The
roof is covered with patent roofing
costing $1.10 a square, and there
are absolutely no open cracks for
drafts on either side except the south.
Once or twice week forkful of mill
let or alfalfa is thrown in to the hens
and wheat or oats scattered over this
every morning. The hens are busy the
coolest days. When strong south
wind comes up the windows and doors
are closed. Once a month take out
the roosts and nests which are nail
kegs, and spray with coal oil. The
low roof confines the body heat deyel'
oped and keeps the hens warm, at the
same time being high enough for an at
